I tried as hard as I could to remain calm, but my heart was racing. I stared down at my sweat-covered, shaking hands. I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were real people. They were not just my mum and dad, who would say, “Good job! even if I messed up the entire piece. What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes? As it turned out, I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight (聚光灯) was waiting for me. I grasped my hands tightly together, drying off the sweat. Slowly I walked to the mud-brown piano in the center of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys, which were waiting impatiently to be played. I swallowed the golf-ball-sized lump (隆起局部) in my throat and sat down. Slowly, I opened the music. Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory (象牙色的) keys. As my fingers played across the keys, I was becoming more unsure of my preparation for this moment. But the memory of my years of training came flooding back. I knew that I had practiced this piece so many times that I could play it backwards if requested. Although at one point I accidentally played two keys instead of the intended one, I continued to move my fingers automatically. My eyes burned holes into (were fixed on) the pages in front of me. There was no way that I was going to lose my concentration. To keep this to myself, I leaned forward and focused carefully on the music. When I came to the end of the page, a warning went off inside my head: DONT MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN YOU TURN THE PAGE! Needless to say, I obeyed myself with all my heart and mind. And, proud of my “page-turning feat (技艺), I finished the rest of the piece without making a single mistake. After the final note died away, a celebration went into action inside my head. I had finished. I had mastered the impossible.36. The author was nervous before the performance because _.

BWeather is the subject matter of Westerners whenever they meet. Housewives, businessmen, factory workers as well as farmers all talk about the weather. It is everyday news, whether or not conditions change. Many newspapers carry a regular front page news story in addition to the full reports on as inside-page provided by the weather service. Here are several different types of weather reports taken from the western papers.No.1 Regional ForecastNew JerseyToday. Considerably cloudy with showers likely. High: 75-79. Southwesterly winds at 15 to 20 m.p.h. Precipitation(降水) probability 70 percent. Tonight: Warm and cloudy, rain likely. Low. 5563. Southwesterly winds at 15 to 20 m.p.h.

Do you realize that you have made a statement? Hold the glance for a second longer and you have made a different situation, there is a permissible time that you can hold a persons stare without being friendly, rude, or aggressive. If you are on a lift, what stare-time are you permitted? To answer this question, consider what you typically do. You very likely give other passengers a quick glance to size them up and to assure them that you mean no harm. Since being close to another person signals the possibility of interaction, you need to send out a signal telling others you want to be left alone. So you cut off eye contacts-what sociologist Erving Goffiman calls “a dimming of the lights. You look down at the floor, at the indicator lights, anywhere but into another passengers eyes. Should you break the rule against staring at a stranger on a lift, you will make the other person extremely uncomfortable, and you are likely to feel a bit strange yourself.If you hold eye contacts for more than 3 seconds, what are you telling another person? Much depends on the person and the situation. For instance, a man and a woman communicate interest in this manner. They stare at each other for about 3 seconds at a time, and then drop their eyes down for 3 seconds, before letting their eyes meet again. But if one man gives another man a 3-second-plus stare, he signals, “I know you, “I am interested in you or “You look peculiar and I am curious about you. This type of stare often produces hostile feelings.44. It can be inferred from the first paragraph that _. A. every glance has its significance B. a glance carries more meaning than words C. a stare longer than 3 seconds is unacceptable D. staring at a person is an expression of interest45. If you want to be left alone on a lift, the best thing to do is _. A. to look into another passengers eyes B. to keep a distance from other passengers C. to avoid eye contacts with other passengers D. to signal you dont mean to do harm to anyone46. By “a dimming of the lights, Erving Goffiman means _. A. closing ones eyesB. turning off the lights C. stopping glancing at othersD. reducing stare-time to the minimum47. The passage mainly discusses _. A. the limitations of eye contacts B. the exchange of ideas through eye contacts C. proper behavior in different situations in peoples daily life D. the role of eye contacts in communication between peopleDIf life seems more rushed than ever, you might be surprised to learn that we Americans dont have less leisure time than we did 40 years ago. We actually have more leisure time, and quite a bit more. What counts as leisure is up for argument, but under every definition the numbers have gone up. We get about 45 minutes a day of extra leisure. Then why does it feel like we have so much less? It might be because we waste half of all our leisure time watching television. The average American adult devotes 2.5 hours a day to this hobby. And for ev
