20、tudied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty-five years. Each couple provided four photographsone photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later. All background was cut from the photos to remove any clues.

21、The photos were then displayed in groups: a random grouping of the persons at the time of their marriage and another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later. Some testees were asked to pick out the partners. They failed totally with the first group. Their judgements were no be

22、tter than chance. But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage, the testees were quite successful with the most happily-married couples.Dr. Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation. One person tends to co

23、py or do the same as someone else without knowing it. He says human begins to imitate the expressions of the faces of their loved ones. “Another possible reason,” he says, “is the common experience of the couples.” There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their face

24、s in similar ways. For example, if a couple have suffered from a lot of sad experiences, their faces are likely to change in a similar way.21.

28、hree biggest lies in America are: (1) “The check is in the mail”, (2) “Of course Ill respect you in the morning”, and (3) “It was a computer error.”Of these three little white lies, the worst is the third. Its the only one that can never be true. Today, if a bank statement cheats you out of $ 900 th

29、at way, you know what the clerk is sure to say,” It was a computer error.” Nonsense. The computer is reporting nothing more than what the clerk typed into it.The most annoying case of all is when the computerized cashier in the grocery store shows that an item costs more than it actually does. If th

30、e innocent buyer points out the mistake, the checker, bagger, and manager all come together and offer the familiar explanation: “It was a compute error.”It wasnt, of course that computerized cashier is really nothing more than an electric event. The eye reads the Universal Product Codechat bar of bl

31、ack and white lines in a corner of the packageand then checks the code against a price list stored in memory. If the price list is right, youll be charged accurately.Grocery stores update the price list each daythat is, somebody sits at a keyboard and types in the prices. If the price they type in i

32、s too high, there are only two explanations: carelessness or dishonesty. But somehow “a computer error” is supposed to excuse everything.One reason we let people hide behind a computer is the common misperception that huge, modern computers are electric brain with “artificial intelligence.” At some

33、point there might be a machine with intelligence but none exists today. The smartest computer on Earth right now is no more intelligent than your average pen. At this point in the development of computers, the only thing any machine can do is what a human has instructed it to do.26. Of the three lie

34、s, the one about computer is the worst because the computer itself _.A. says nonsense B. cheats customersC. cannot make the error D. does not admit its error27.

36、y men30. Which of the following describes the main idea of the passage?A. Computers are stupid and inefficient.B. Computer errors are due to its dishonesty.C. Computers help stores update the price list.D. Computer errors are actually human errors.Passage FourI came across an old country guidebook t

37、he other day. It listed all the tradesmen in each village, and it was impressive to see the past variety of services which were available on ones own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside.Nowadays a traveler in rural England might conclude that the only village tradesmen still flourishing were

38、either selling frozen food to the villagers or selling antiques to visitors. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. On the surface, there has been a decline of village commerce, but its power is still remarkable.Our local grocers shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of t

39、he competition from supermarkets in the nearest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local news while doing their shopping, instead of queuing up at a supermarket. And the grocer knows well that personal service has a considerable cash value.His prices may be a bit higher than th

40、ose in the town, but he will deliver anything at any time. His assistants think nothing of bicycling down the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old retired woman who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happened to be passing. The richer customers teleph

41、one their shopping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour. They have only to hint at a fancy for some commodity outside the usual stock and the grocer, a red faced-figure, instantly obtains it for them.31. Nowadays the commercial services in the village are _.A. still very active
