A traveler came out of the airport. There were a lot of taxies. He asked every taxi-driver

his name. Then he took the third one. It cost 5 dollars from the airport to the hotel. "How much does it cost for the whole day？" the man asked. "100 dollars," said the taxi-driver. This was very expensive, but the man said it was OK.

The taxi-driver took the man everywhere. He showed him all the parks and museums in the city. In the evening, they went back to the hotel. The traveler gave the taxi-driver 100 dollars and said, "What about tomorrow？" The taxi-driver looked at the man and said, "Tomorrow？ It is another 100 dollars." But the man said, "That’s OK! See you tomorrow." The taxi-driver was very pleased.

The next day, the taxi-driver took the traveler everywhere again. They visited all the parks and museums again. And in the evening, they went back to the hotel. The man gave the tax-driver 100 dollars again and said, "I’m going home tomorrow." The taxi-driver was very sorry because he liked the traveler and, above all, 100 dollars a day was a lot of money. "So you are going home. Where do you come from？" he asked. "I come from New York." "New York!" said the taxi-driver. "I have a sister in New York; her name is Susanna. Do you know her？"

"Of course I know her. She gave me 200 dollars for you!"

When we want to【41】other people what we think, we can do it not only with the help of word

s, but also in many【42】ways. For example, we sometimes move our heads【43】when we want to say "yes" , and we move our heads【44】when we want to say " no" .

People, who can【45】hear nor speak, talk to each other with the help of their fingers. People who do not understand each other's language have to do the same. The following story shows【46】they sometimes do it.

【47】English man who could not speak Italian was【48】traveling in Italy. One day he entered a restaurant and sat【49】a table. When the waiter came, the Englishman opened his mouth, 【50】his fingers into it, 【51】them out again and moved his lips. In this way he meant to say, "【52】me something to eat. " The waiter soon brought him【53】tea. The Englishman【54】his head and the waiter understood that he didn't want tea, so he took it【55】and brought him【56】coffee. The Englishman was angry. He was just going to leave the restaurant【57】another traveler came in. When this man saw the waiter, he【58】his hands on his stomach. That was enough. In【59】minutes there was a large plate of bread and meat【60】his table.

Assuming that the engineering problems could be overcome, the production of a time machine

could open up a Pandora's box of causal paradoxes. Consider, for example, the time traveler who visits the past and murders his mother when she was a young girl. How do we make sense of this？ If the girl dies, she cannot become the time traveler's mother. But if the time traveler was never born, he could not go back and murder his mother.

Paradoxes of this kind arise when the time traveler tries to change the past, which is obviously impossible. But that does not prevent someone from being a part of the past.

Suppose the time traveler goes back and rescues a young girl from murder, and this girls grows up to become his mother. The causal loop is now self-consistent and no longer paradoxical. Causal consistency might impose restrictions on what a time traveler is able to do, but it does not rule out time travel per second.

Even if time travel isn't strictly paradoxical, it is certainly weird. Consider the time traveler who leaps ahead a year and reads about a new mathematical theorem in a future edition of Scientific American. He notes the details, returns to his own time and teaches the theorem to a student, who then writes it up for Scientific American. The article is, of course, the very one that the time traveler reads. The question then arises: Where did the information about the theorem come from？ Not from the time traveler, because he read it, but not from the student either, who learned it from the time traveler. The information seemingly came into existence from nowhere, reasonlessly.

The bizarre consequences of time travel have led some scientists to reject the notion outright. Stephen W. Hawking of the University of Cambridge has proposed a "Chronology protection conjecture," which would outlaw causal loops. Because the theory of relativity is known to permit causal loops, chronology protection would require some other factors to intercede to prevent travel into the past. What might this factor be？ One suggestion is that quantum processes will come to the rescue. The existence of a time machine would allow particles to loop into their own past. Calculations hint that the ensuring disturbance would become self-reinforcing, creating a runaway surge of energy that would wreck the wormhole.

The first paragraph intends to show ______.

A．the time machine in the future would be feasible

B．the time machine in the future is just like the Pandora's ox

C．the time machine in the future is still doubtful

D．the time machine in the future might cause murder

阅读下列短文，然后根据短文的内容从 51～54 小题的四个选择项中选出最佳的一项。

A

There was a river with a small town on either side of it. The towns were linked by a bridge.

One day，a hole appeared in the bridge. Both towns agreed that the hole should be mended. However，disagreement came up as to who should mend it. Each town thought that it had a better reason for the other to mend the hole. The town on the right bank said that it was at the end of the road，so the left-bank town should mend the hole. The town on the left bank，on the other hand，insisted that all the traffic came to the right-bank town，so it was in their interest to mend the bridge.

The quarrel went on and on，and so did the hole. The more it went on，the more the hostility between the two towns grew.

One day a man fell into the hole and broke his leg. People from both towns questioned him closely about whether he was walking from the right bank to the left or from the left bank to the right，in order to decide which town should be blamed for the accident. But he could not remember，since he got drunk that night.

Some time later，a car was crossing the bridge and broke an axle（轴）because of the hole. Neither town paid any attention to the accident，as the traveler was not going from one to the other，but was merely passing through. The angry traveler got out of the car and asked why the hole was not mended.

On hearing the reason，he declared，“I'll buy this hole. Who‘s the owner？”

Both towns at once declared that they owned the hole.

“One or the other，whoever owns the hole must prove it.”

“How shall we prove it？”asked both sides.

“That's simple. Only the owner of the hole has the right to mend it. I‘ll buy the hole from whoever mends the bridge.”

People from both towns rushed to do the job while the traveler smoked a cigar and his driver changed the axle. They mended the bridge in no time and asked for the money for the hole.

“What hole？”The traveler looked surprised.“I can't see any hole. I‘ve been looking for a hole for several years now. I'm prepared to pay a good price for it，but there’s no hole here. Are you pulling my leg or what？”

He got into his car and drove off.

第 51 题 What did the two towns quarrel about？

A．Which of them should mend the hole.

B．Whether the hole should be mended.

C．Why there was a hole in the bridge.

D．When they should mend the hole.

听力原文：Finally there is one more element to business success that we haven't talked abou

听力原文： Finally there is one more element to business success that we haven't talked about. I know what you think I'm going to say, luck and you're partially right. Good entrepreneurs know how to make their own luck and that means being in the right place at the right time with the right product. Let me give you a little example, early in this century, if you’re a traveler by train and subway and you happen to get a little thirsty in the station, where would you go for some water？ There were no big soda machine at every corner or even drinking fountains, yet there were thousands of thirsty travelers out there, well, what they did was drank water out of one little tin cup that was passed from one thirsty commuter to the next. That's right, everybody drank out of the same cup, and you can bat it didn’t get washed after every user. Will, that was the right time for the right product and there was a man who had it. His name is H M and his product was the disposable paper cup. He came up with it just as the nation was becoming concerned about their health risks associated with the tin cups. Laws were passed outlying the things; reports were published showing just what sorts of germs can be passed around from sharing them. Mr. M road that way to become the best known producers of one of the most successful paper products of all time. He originally called his product health cups, but later changed the nature, so can anyone guess what that name might be？

(44)

A．Successful business practices.

B．Famous inventors.

C．Public health concerns.

D．Unsuccessful inventions.
