Unexpectedly, they saw an elderly man grasping for breath in the street. They tried to call the police and ambulance service, but their phones w ere not w orking, due to netw ork problems.Before the Polish man became unconscious, the children kept him calm w hile they flagged dow n( 招停) apassing driver. The children used w ords they had picked up from their Polish classmates to translate the inj ured man’s answ er to the driver ’s questions.Gary, 10, and his six-year-old sister, Lily, stayed w ith the man w hile Thymus and Ow en, both 11, led the ambulance to the spot w here he lay. Soon the man w as taken to hospital.The fantastic four children w ho came to the aid of the elderly man deserve the high est respect for their quick think ing and courage in an emergency situation. They are a credit not only to themselves, but to their families and their school. And it is great to be able to hear such a positive story about young people. What is not so positive about th is story is the fact that several adults apparently w alked by w ithout stopping tohelp. This seeming indifference to an emergency situation is a well-noted phenomenon w hich psychologistssometimes refer to as“the bystander effect”. Research suggests that w hen a group of people w itness an emergency,people are lik ely to assume that somebody else w ill intervene and they feel that the burden of responsibility is lifted from their shoulders.Perhaps the answ er to this sort of thing is to introduce a “Good Samaritan” law. This already exists in France and places, a legal responsibility on people w ho w itness an emergency situation to help out as long as they can doso. This certainly seems to remove any doubt about w ho bears the burden of responsibilit y for offering assistance—everybody!24. What can w e learn about the elderly man?A. He spoke Polish w ith the children.B. He fell from his bike and got injured.C. He w as taken to hospital by a passing driver.D. He recovered consciousness in the street.25.

In France, if an emergency happens to someone, .A. offering help to him is required by lawB. people have the right to leave the sceneC. others must get permission before helping himD. the w itnesses w ill be punished if the rescue failsCWhenever w e see a button, w e w ant to press it because w e know that something w ill happen. This is true in most cases, for example, on a doorbell. But s ome buttons are actually fake, like the “close” button on a lift.Many people are in the habit of pressing the “close” button because they don’t have the patience t o w ait for the lift doors to shut. But lifts ’ “close” buttons are a complete trick, at least in the US-the doors w ill not close any faster no matter how hard you press.It started in the 1990s w hen the Americans w ith Disabilit ies Act w as passed in the US, making sure that all lifts stayed open long enough so that people w ith disabilit ies could enter. Only US firefighters and repairmen can use the buttons to speed up the door-closing process if they have a code or special keys.But to normal lift ri ders, the buttons aren’t completely useless. According to psychologists, fake buttons can actually make you feel better by offering you a sense of control.“A sense of control is very important. It reduces stress and increases well-being,” said Ellen J. Langer, a psychology professor at Harvard Un iversity. Experts also added that a lot of buttons that don ’t do anything exist in our lives for this same purpose.For example, pedestrian crossw alk buttons don’t live up to their names either. Pressing them used to help make the traffic signals change faster, but that was before computer controlled traffic sign als w ere introduced.But psycholog ists found it interesting that even w hen people are aw are of these litt le “w hite lies”, they still continue t o push fake buttons because as long as the doors eventually close, it is considered to be w orth the effort.28. What is the author ’s purpose in w riting the text?A. To describe different fake buttons.B. To explore the functions of fake buttons.C. To analyze various habits of pushing buttons.D. To explain the disadvantages of fake buttons.29. What can w e learn about the “close” buttons on a lift in America?A. They w ere designed for a sense of control.B. They w ork w hen people press them hard.C. They never speed up the door-closing process.D. They take the safety of the disabled into account.30. What can w e infer about pedestrian crossw alk buttons?A. They help computers w ork faster.B. They can make people feel better.C. They can control the traffic signals.D. They help pedestrians cross safely.31. Which may be the best title for the passage?A. Buttons in the USAB. Buttons Alw ays Lie。
