32、y to Melbourne and noticed an “awful tension” in the cabin, she first thought it was caused by typical bad-tempered passengers. But as the flight neared its end, it became obvious that something was very wrong.A teenage boy with Down syndrome（唐氏综合征） who was traveling with his family had become upset

33、 and would not return to his seat, regardless of the cabin crews warnings over the loudspeaker that it was almost time to land. The pilot was forced to circle above the airport, delaying the landing-and angering people on the already tense flight.“If it was a cartoon,” remembered Murphy, “there woul

34、d have been smoke coming out of peoples ears.”As the boys elderly parents and adult brothers and sisters tried to persuade him to get off the floor and back into his seat, but in vain, Murphy, 42-who had been a teacher for more than 20 years-stood up and quickly headed to the back of the plane.She f

35、ound the boy in the passage between rows of seats, lying on his belly, and lay down on her stomach to face him. She began chatting calmly with him, asking his name, his favorite book, and his favorite characters. He told her he felt sick and she tried to comfort him.Minutes later, he allowed her to

36、hold his hand-and then together they got properly back into airplane seats. Murphy asked for sick bags, and held them as the boy threw up several times, including on her. As she helped him clean up, she repeatedly told him everything would be okay and that theyd get through it together.After the pla

37、ne was finally able to land, no one was impatient to step off the flight as one might expect. Instead, calmed passengers-obviously following Murphys amazing example- allowed the boy and his family to depart first, smiling at them as they passed. His parents tearfully thanked Murphy for what she had

38、done, and a doctor sitting nearby also let her know he had even taken notes on her expert way of handling the situation.59.The landing was delayed because _.A. a family ignored the warnings B. a boy refused to sit in his seatC. smoke was coming out of the engine D. the pilot was forced to change the

39、 destination60.Murphy successfully handled the “awful tension” by _.A. fighting against unfair treatment B. calling on other passengers to join herC. communicating with the boy D. asking an experienced doctor to help61.What changed the angry passengers attitude at last?A. The boys improvement. B. Th

40、e planes safe landing.C. The crews behavior. D. The teachers efforts.62.Which of the following words can best describe Murphy?A. Generous and cautious. B. Patient and enthusiastic.C. Wise and cooperative. D. Kind and cool-headed.CIn some islands north of Scotland, head lice, which live on the hair o

41、r skin of people or animals, were a part of life. If the lice left their host, he became sick and feverish. Therefore, sick people had lice put in their hair intentionally. There was a method to their madness: As soon as the lice had settled in again, the patient improved. The story explains the con

42、fusion of cause and effect. If the lice leave the sick, it is because he has a fever and they simply get hot feet. When the fever breaks, they return. We may laugh at this story, but false causality misleads us practically every day.Consider the headline: “Fact: Women Who Use Shampoo XYZ Every Day H

43、ave Stronger Hair.” This statement says very littleleast of all, that the shampoo makes your hair stronger. It might simply be the other way round: Women with strong hair tend to use Shampoo XYZand perhaps thats because it says “especially for thick hair” on the bottle.A further example: Scientists

44、found that long periods in the hospital did harm to patients. This was music to health insurers ears, who, of course, are keen to make stays as brief as possible. But, clearly, patients who are dismissed immediately are healthier than those who must stay on for treatment.Recently I read that student

45、s get better grades at school if their homes contain a lot of books. This study was surely a shot in the arm for booksellers, but it is also an example of false causality. This simple truth is that educated parents tend to value their childrens education more than uneducated ones do. Plus, educated

46、parents often have more books at home. In short, a dust-covered copy of War and Peace alone isnt going to influence anyones grades; what counts is parents education levels, as well as their genes.Another example of false causality was the supposed relationship between the birth rate and the numbers of stork(鹳) pairs in Germany: Both were in decline, and if you plot them on a graph, the two lines of development from 1965 to 1987 appeared almost t
