While most of us tend to move on after mourning over the lost necessities, there are a few lucky ones who get them back, with the help of the police or the generosity of the person who finds it.And then there is Hunter Shamatt, who not only got back his wallet but with some added happiness that was tagged along!Hunter was on his way to attend his sister’s wedding on a Las Vegas-bound flight when he realized that he has misplaced his wallet, sometime during the journey. Hunter’s family reached out to the Frontier flight to enquire if someone had handed it over to them. Unfortunately, there was no sign of the missing wallet.But wait. The story was far from over. Just a week after Hunter’ssister’s wedding, he received a package in his mail. And guess what? There was his wallet! Surprisingly, the wallet was not the only thing that was inside the package. It also had a handwritten note for Hunter which turned out to be a bonus! The piece of paper read,“Hunter, Found this on a Frontier flight from Omaha to De nver — row 12, seat F wedged between the seat and wall. Thought you might want it back. All the best.P.S. I rounded your cash up to an even $100, so you could celebrate getting your wallet back. HAVE FUN!!!”Moved by the touching gesture, Hunter’s mom, Je annie Shamatt, decided to write a post on Facebook giving a detailed description of the incident. She also urged everyone to share the post as she would like to meet and greet the person behind the act of kindness, personally.Now, thanks to the astonishing power of social media, the post finally reached the man behind the note. The man was identified as Todd Brown and it was one of his co-workers who made sure Jeannie Shamatt’s post reaches his colleague. Jeannie turned to Facebook again to thank Brown and his family for restoring her faith in humanity.“I try to teach my children to do the right things in life, help people when you can regardless of the outcome. This story is more about restoring faith in people than anything. We hear a lot of bad news but not enough good news.I personally want to thank Todd Brown and his wife for restoring faith that there are amazing people out there.”24.

Justice.CYour next car could have two seats, three wheels --- two in front and one in the back and a top speed of more than 100 miles per hour. Elio Motors plans to make such a tiny car named the Elio. Its two seats sit front and back instead of side by side. The driver is positioned in the center with the passenger directly behind.The starting price for the car is just $6,800. It has only one door, on the left side, which cuts a few hundred dollars off the manufacturing costs. Having three wheels also makes it cheaper. It has air conditioning, power windows and door locks and an AM/FM radio. More features can be ordered through Elio's long list of suppliers. Elio will also sell the cars directly through its own stores and not through franchised dealers (特约经销商).Paul Elio dreamed as a kid that he would one day own a car company called Elio Motors. In 2020, tired of high gas prices, he started working on a car that burns gas in a more effective way. Equally important to him was creating US manufacturing jobs and making the car inexpensive enough to attract buyers who might otherwise be stuck in their old, unreliable cars. "Whatever matters to you, this can move the needle on it, he said.Already, more than 27,000 people have reserved one. Paul hopes to make250,000 cars a year by 2020. So far, reservation holders are those who will use the Elio as a second or third car for work. Paul Elio believes the car will interest college students as well as used-car drivers who want something newer and more reliable, though.28. Which of the following shows the design of the Elio? (○= wheel, □= seat)A. B. C. D.29. Paragraph 2 shows that the Elio _________.A. will be available in most storesB. does no harm to the environmentC. has a fixed temperatureD. is sold at affordable prices30. Who will probably buy this kind of cars?A. People who want to take part in car racesB. Students who study in collegesC. Families who are rich and yet don’t have a carD. High school students who want to practice driving31. What is the main idea of the passage?A. To describe the history of Elio MotorsB. To introduce an inexpensive and reliable type of carC. To introduce a great car-makerD. To advise buyers on how to buy carsDWhile every dog owner knows their dogs can read their moods perfectly,scientists have always been a little doubtful. Now thanks to some researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna, Austria, we finally have some convincing evidence.For their study, biologist Corson Miller and his team exposes eleven selected dogs to digital images of women that were either angry or happy. Half the dogs were rewarded for touching the screen when shown a happy face, while the other half got their treat for selecting those that appeared angry.Interestingly, the dogs were not provided with the entire face. Some dogs were shown only upper halves while the others observed lower halves. That's because the scientists believe humans show their emotions on their entire face.After some training like how to recognize small differences like the wrinkles between the eyes or the changes in their shape that accompany the happy or angry expressions, the dogs were mostly able to identify the correct expression not only on a familiar face but on a strange face. The researchers concluded the dogs were smart enough to read human emotions.They also found those being trained to read angry expressions took a longer time to learn. They guess it may be because dogs find angry faces disgusting, causing them to withdraw quickly. However, once the smart dogs realized they were getting rewarded, the trepidation seemed to disappear. In fact, the dogs had such a good time playing the computer "game" That scientists had a hard time keeping them away from the touch screens after the study was completed.The researchers also noticed only dogs with a male owner had a harder time understanding the expressions correctly. Since the touch-screen models were all females, this confirmed what has been observed in previous studies dogs are more efficient at reading facial expressions of people that are thesame gender as their owner.32. How did the scientists conduct the experiment?A. By leaving dogs to women who are either happy or angry.B. By mixing the selected dogs together.C. By rewarding only half of the dogs touching the screen.D. By showing digital pictures of women’s happy or angry faces.33. The underlined word “trepidation” in Paragraph 5 probably means.A. fear and hesitationB. curiosity and eagernessC. excitement and happinessD. doubt and sadness34. According to the last paragraph, dogs with female owners______________.A. are fond of the male facesB. are uninterested in telling the emotions on the entire facesC. have difficulty telling the moods on the faces of malesD. can only recognize emotions of females35. What is the best title for this passage?A. Mood Changes Influence DogsB. Dogs Identify the MoodsC. dogs and Their OwnersD.
