AI was in a rush as always, but this time it was for an important date I just couldn‘t be late for! I found myself at a checkout counter behind an elderly woman seemingly in no hurry as she paid for her groceries.A PhD student with not a lot of money, I had hurried into the store to pick up some flowers. I was in a huge rush, thinking of my upcoming evening. I did not want to be late for this date.We were in Boston, a place not always known for small conversation between strangers. The woman stopped unloading her basket and looked up at me. She smiled. It was a nice smile —warm and reassuring — and I returned her gift by smiling back.―Must be a special lady, whoever it is that will be getting those beautiful flowers,‖ she said.―Yes, she‘ s special,‖ I said, and then to my embarrassment, the words kept coming out. ―It‘ s only our second date,but somehow I am just having the feeling she‘s ‗the one‘ ,‖Jokingly, I added, ―The only problem is that I ca n‘ t figure out why she‘ d want to date a guy like me.‖―Well, I think she‘s very lucky to have a boyfriend who brings her such lovely flowers and who is obviously in love with her,‖ the woman said. ―My husband used to bring me flowers every week — even wh en times were tough and we didn‘t ha ve much money. Those were incredible days; he was very romantic and — of course —I miss him since he‘ s passed away.‖I paid for my flowers as she was gathering up her groceries. There was no doubt in my mind as Iwalk ed up to her. I touched her on the shoulder and said, ―You were right, you know. These flowers are indeed for a very special lady.‖ I handed her the flowers and thanked her for such a nice conversation.It took her a moment to realize that I was giving her the flowers I had just purchased.―You have a wonderful evening,‖I said. I left her with a big smile and my heart warmed as I saw her smelling the beautiful flowers.I remember being slightly late for my date that ni ght and telling my girlfriend the above story. Acoup le of yea rs later,when I finally worked up the courage to ask her to marry me,she told me that this story had helped to seal it for her — that was the night that I won her heart.21.Why was the writer in a hurry that day?A.

Researchers said it could explain why people with a higher IQ were healthier as a vegetarian diet was linked to lower heart disease and obesity rates. The study of 8,179 people was reported in the British Medical Journal.Twenty years after the IQ tests were carried out in 1970, 366 of the participants said they were vegetarians — although more than 100 reported eating either fish or chicken.Men who were vegetarians had an IQ score of 106, compared with 101 for non-vegetarians; while female vegetarians averaged 104, compared with 99 for non-vegetarians. There was no difference in the IQ scores, between strict vegetarians and those who said they were vegetarians but reported eating fish or chicken.Researchers said the findings were partly related to better education and higher class, but it remained statistically significant after adjusting for these factors.Vegetarians were more likely to be female, to be of higher social class and to have higher academic or vocational qualifications than non-vegetarians. However, these differences were not reflected in their annual income, which was similar to that of non-vegetarians.Lead researcher Catharine Gale said, ―The findings that children with greater intelligence are morelikely to report being vegetarians as adults, together with the evidence on the potential benefits of a vegetarian diet on heart health, may help to explain why a higher IQ in childhood or adolescence is linked with a reduced risk of coronary heart disease in adult life.But Dr Frankie Phillips of the British Dietetic Association said,―It is like the chicken and egg. Do people become vegetarians because they have a very high IQ or is it just that they are clever enough to be more aware of health issues?‖28.What‘ s the result of the research mentioned in the text?A. Children with a higher IQ are less likely to have heart disease later in life.B. Intelligent children tend to belong to higher social class later in life.C. Intelligent children are more likely to become vegetarians later in life.D. Children with a healthier heart tend to have a higher IQ later in life.29.It was found in the research that________.A. most of the participants became vegetarians 20 years after the IQ tests were carried out.B. vegetarians who ate fish or chicken were of similar intelligence with strict vegetarians.C. female vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual income than non-vegetarians.D. vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual income than non-vegetarians. 30.Catharine Gale talked about ―being vegetarians‖ in a(n)________way.A. doubtfulB. favorableC. negativeD. objective31.What‘ s the best title for the text?A. Get more IQ points!B. Be a vegetarian, please!C. A high IQ is linked to being a vegetarianD. Vegetarian diet cuts heart riskDAlong the river banks of the Amazon and the Orinoco there lives a bird that swims before it can fly, flies like a fat chicken, eats green leaves, has the stomach of a cow and has claws(爪)on its wings when young .They build their homes about 4.6m above the river ,an important feature(特征)for the safety of the young. It is called the hoatzin.In appearance,the birds of both sexes look very much alike with brown on the back and cream and red on the underside .The head is small, with a large set of feathers on the top, bright red eyes, and blue skin.Its nearest relatives are the common birds, cuckoos. Its most striking feature ,though, is only found in the young.Baby hoatzins have a claw on the leading edge of each wing and another at the end of each wing tip .Using these four claws ,togeth er with the beak(喙),they can climb about in the bushes, looking very much like primitive birds must have done. When the young hoatzins have learned to fly ,they lose their claws.During the drier months between December and March hoatzins fly about the forest in groups of 20 to 30 birds, but in April, when the rainy season begins, they collect together in smaller living units of two to seven birds for producing purposes.32.What is the text mainly about?A.Hoatzins in dry and rainy seasons.B.The relatives and enemies of hoatzins.C.Primitive birds and hoatzins of the Amazon.D.The appearance and living habits of hoatzins.33.Young hoatzins are different from their parents in that .A.they look like young cuckoos B.they have claws on the wingsC.they eat a lot like a cow D.they live on river banks34.What can we infer about primitive birds from the text?A.They had claws to help them climb.
