My brother Joe had a passion for driving cars. Fords in particular. He was especially fond of speed. It was enough to make my mother fear that he was crazy. But she had that fear about everyone, even herself.

When Joe was just a little boy, he would often say to me, “Sister, when I am old enough to get my license and drive my own car, I will fly so fast that angels will run scared.” With a big grin (咧嘴笑), he would imagine the scene.I could have told him it would never happen. No matter how old he got, he would never get a license, never drive a car. But I didn't tell him that.

Joe was born blind. He couldn't see his own face in a mirror. But he could dream like anyone. I didn't want to be the one to dim Joe's dreams. Life would do that for him, soon enough. Until then, didn't he deserve his happiness?

Joe had trouble not just with his eyes, but with his legs. He was born premature (早产的) suffered from disabilities and could not walk until he was 5. That's when he got his first “car”, a red Radio Flyer tricycle that he called his 49 Ford. He couldn't pedal it, so he would push it everywhere, sometimes even falling over.

Growing up is a tug of war between disappointment and surprise, between dreams and reality. By the time Joe was 12, I think he knew he would never get a license. As with the other hard facts of life, he seemed to accept it without question or bitterness, as if it were nothing more than a card drawn at random.

One hot summer day when he was 16, Joe went tapping out the driveway with his stick, finding his way to my stepfather's 49 Ford. He ran his hand along the car, felt the heat of the metal, opened the door and climbed in.

He looked good.

Under the seat, he discovered a six-pack of Budweiser (百威啤酒). And he drank all six cans. He felt inside the car, found the keys, shouted, “Hooweece!” and fired it up.

I have heard various versions of this story. They all boil down to this: the Ford's engine roared. My mother fainted (昏厥). My stepfather rushed outside.

And my brother, after a moment of pure joy, threw up all over the car. Fortunately, for everyone, the Ford didn't move an inch. But to this day, Joe still swears that when he found those keys and fired that old engine up, he heard the angels starting to flee.

40. What do we know about Joe?

A. He learned to drive at school.

B. He is keen on fast-speed driving.

C. His mental development is slower than others.

D. He had a car accident when he was 5.

C. She let him dream his dream.

D. She encouraged him to ride a tricycle.

42. What does the underlined sentence infer?

A. Joe thought all this was fate.

B. Joe preferred to playing cards.

C. Joe accepted it with more questions or bitterness.

D. Joe do it on purpose as if he would draw this card.

43. What does it mean when Joe says he heard angels flee?

A. He is not living in reality.

B. His family members are like angels to him.

C. He realizes he fell asleep inside the car.

D. He believes he realized his dream of driving fast.

44. Which word best describes Joe?

C

You watch a sad film and get caught up in your emotions. You cry your eyes out at the dramatic plot — you feel sad for the characters if they suffer, or happy for them when they are successful. It is only when the movie is over that you realize that what you were watching is not real.

But why couldn’t you accept that when you were so absorbed in the movie? It was reported in Science Daily this week that scientists at Case Western Reserve University, US, discovered that people simply cannot think emotionally and logically at the same time.

It has long been known that something different goes on in our brain when we use logic, rather than responding to something emotionally. Thinking logically is a step-by-step process, in which people make decisions through reasoning and find answers rationally. When we think emotionally or empathize (有同感), we look at things from someone else’s point of view and try to feel their pain.

Now scientists have found that thinking logically and emotionally are like the two ends of a seesaw (跷跷板). When we’re busy empathizing, the part of the brain used for cold, hard analysis is suppressed. And it’s also true the other way round.

To come to this conclusion, scientists gathered 45 people — men and women — to take brain scans as they solved different kinds of puzzles. Some of the puzzles were tough and involved math and physics and others were social problems that required participants to put themselves in other people’s shoes.

Scientists found that when participants were doing a math problem, the region in their brain that is associated with logical thinking lit up, and when asked to make emotional decisions, the region for emotional thinking lit up. But the most interesting part is that when asked to solve problems that required both logical and emotional responses, the participants always used one of the regions at a time while the other one went dark.

“Empathetic and analytic thinking are mutually (相互之间地) exclusive (排斥的) in the brain,” said Anthony Jack, leader of the study. “You don't have to favor one, but cycle efficiently between them, and employ the right network at the right time.”

However, people sometimes ended up using the wrong one. This explains why some people are good at solving complex math problems but have poor social skills. And why even the smartest people get taken in by fake but touching stories.

45. Why does the author mention watching movies at the beginning of the article?

A. To show that we are easily moved by things that are not real.

B. To show that sometimes we only use emotional thinking.

C. To introduce the research based on this kind of experiences.

D. To prove emotional thinking is powerful.

46. Scientists at Case Western Reserve University, US proved ________ through their recent tests.

A. logical thinking works differently from emotional thinking

B. logical thinking is much more efficient than emotional thinking

C. logical thinking and emotional thinking take turns to function independently

D. logical thinking and emotional thinking could work together

47. The underlined word “suppressed” in Paragraph 4 means ________.

A. starting to react actively

B. being completely damaged

C. to prevent something from working effectively

D. to obtain an opposite function

48. We can conclude from the last two paragraphs that ________.

A. people have to frequently switch between different types of thinking

B. adopting the wrong thinking mode could have bad results

C. people could only either have excellent logical thinking or emotional thinking

D. people who think logically could easily be manipulated

49. What is probably the best title?

A. Movies and Your Emotions B. Math and Physics

C. Your Heart vs Your Mind D. Logical Thinking

D

Singles looking for love in China might once have wandered around parks to glimpse posters hung by parents with the details of their unmarried children. Now the authorities in Luanzhou, a city of 570,000 in the northern industrial province of Hebei, are playing Cupid, building a database for young people looking to find that special someone.

Those who want to take part in the Youth Happiness Project are asked to fill out a form with personal details, including age, financial situation and family background, to help the authorities find them a suitor. “Blind date corners” will be created in several of the city's parks and botanical gardens.

Last year in May the government announced that it would allow all couples to have three children, up from two, and in September it scrapped fines for having more.

Many couples prefer sons, which led to high rates of femicide under the previous one-child policy.

The Youth Happiness Project was revealed this week in response to a question on an online message board for leaders run by the official Communist Party paper People's Daily.

B. Parents in China would hang posters with the details of their unmarried children.

C “Blind date corners” have been created in some parks and gardens for plants.

A. Age. B. Financial situation. C. Family background. D. Suitor.

52. What can we learn about the fertility and marriage rates in China?

A. In 2020 there were 13.5 million weddings while in 2013 there were only 8 million.

B. China has been working on dealing with low birthrate and marriage rates.

C. Nearly 35 million more single men than women, about half of them beyond the marriageable age" range.

A. young singles are engaged in their work

B. the government could not organize activities to help young singles

C. young singles are busy with their friends

D. the young are particular about finding partners

55. What does the author most likely want to tell us?

A. The authorities in Luanzhou are about to playing Cupid.

B. The Chinese government announced it would allow all couples to stick to one-child policy.
