第二节短文理解1

阅读下面短文，从[A](Right)、[B](Wrong)、[C](Doesn't Say)三个判断中选择一个正确选项。

No goods(商品)or services are given free. As we know, we get many things by payment of money, and people receive money for so many goods and services. Anyone taking the money from us can in turn spend it for his own good. For example, the milkman sells the milk for money, and then he uses the money, possibly, to pay for what is used in his own car.

Sometimes the payment is in another form. Often among friends, or in the family, one person will give goods, or services which cost effort (努力) and skill (技巧), in exchange for payment. This might bring a feeling of happiness, such as when one gives a present. Also, it might show that you have paid the person back, such as when you help with washing up the dishes after someone cooks you a meal. It means that in the future the person who gives goods or services will himself be given something else.

No matter how they are paid for--in money, time, or effort--goods and services can only be got by some cost.

All goods and services are paid for in money or in other forms.

A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Doesn't say

根据以下材料，回答题

Milk That Paid a Medical Bill

One day， a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through school found he had only one thin dime （10分钱） left， and he was hungry.

He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house. However， he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly， and then asked，"How much do I owe you？"

"You don"t owe me anything，" she replied. "Mother has taught us never to accept pay for a kindness".

He said， "Then I thank you from my heart."

As Howard Kelly left that house， he not only felt stronger physically， but his faith in God and man was strong also. He had been ready to give up and quit.

Years later that young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled（感到困惑）.

They finally sent her to the big city， where they called in specialists to study her rare disease. Dr Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from， a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to her room. Dressed in his doctor"s gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once. He went back to the consultation room determined to do his best to save her life. From that day he gave special attention to the case. After a long struggle， the battle was won.

Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it then wrote something on the edge and the bill was sent to her room. She feared to open it， for she was sure it would take the rest of her life to pay for it all. Finally she looked， and something caught her attention on the side of the bill. She read these words: "Paid in full with one glass of milk."

Tears of joy flooded her eyes as her happy heart prayed: " Thank You， God， that your love has spread abroad through human hearts and hands."

The boy sold goods from door to door because __________. 查看材料

A.he wanted to help support his family

B.he needed money for school

C.he had to pay back a student loan

Honesty is the best policy, as the English saying goes. Unfortunately, honesty often deser

ts us when no one is watching, British psychologists reported last week.

Researchers at UK's Newcastle University set up an experiment in their psychology department's coffee room. They set a kettle, with tea, coffee and milk on the counter and hung up a sign listing the prices for drinks. People helping themselves to a cup of drink were supposed to put a few cents in the box nearby. The scientists hung a poster above the money box, and it changed each week between images of gazing eyes and pictures of flowers. The researchers found that staff paid 2.76 times more for their drinks when the image of the eyes was hung. "Frankly we were shocked by the size of the effect," said Gilbert Roberts, one of the researchers.

Eyes are known to be a powerful perceptual (感官的) signal for humans. "Even though the eyes were not real, they still seemed to make people behave more honestly," said Melissa Bateson, a behavioral biologist and leader of the study.

Researchers believe the effect sheds light on our evolutionary past. It may arise from behavioral features that developed when early humans formed social groups to strengthen their chances of survival For social groups to work, individuals had to co-operate, rather than act selfishly. "There's an argument that if nobody is watching us, it is in our interests to behave selfishly. But when we're being watched we should behave better. So people see us as co-operative and behave the same way towards us," Bateson said.

The new finding indicates that people have a striking response to eyes. That might be because eyes and faces send a strong biological signal we have evolved to respond to. The finding could be put to practical use, too. For example, images of eyes could increase ticket sales on public transport and improve supervision systems to prevent antisocial behavior.

The experiment conducted in Newcastle University shows that ______.

A．people enjoy free drinks more than paid ones

B．most people are dishonest if nobody is watching

C．people like pictures of flowers more than pictures of eyes

D．people are more honest when watched by pictures of eyes

It's 8:00 am. James Butters gives 18-month-old Thomas his milk, then breakfast. After gett

ing Thomas into his outdoor clothes, they head for the park to watch birds and play on the grass. With lunchtime drawing near, they're back home for an afternoon of drawing, playing with cars, maybe watching some children's programs.

James isn't Thomas' dad. He is a nanny (保姆)—a man nanny, obviously, interestingly termed a "manny"—specially trained and in his third nannying position. At 27, he cares for Thomas, and another boy of a similar age. "It's much freer than an office job," he says, "and you're getting to see children develop and grow. You become very close to them, for sure. I don't think I'm special or better than a woman nanny; everyone has their own method. But I'm unusual.

Friends laughed when I started studying nursery nursing. In my class, I was the only man among 70 women. Somehow, I made it," he said.

Although it's not yet common to find men in traditional (传统的) nannying courses, things are changing. In the United States, parents are employing young mannies, sometimes to care for babies, but more often as active role models to get junior away from the TV and the computer. From rollerblading (轮滑) friends to summer swimming mannies, these are the big brothers who are always willing to play, largely because they're paid for it.

It is catching on here in Britain, too. Earlier this year, Norland nanny college welcomed its first full-time man student, 19-year-old Peter Cummins in Wales. While some families find it difficult to accept the idea of a young man in a traditional nannying role, man nannies are increasingly popular.

Which of the following can be the best title for the text？

A．Changes in Tradition

B．A New Job for Men

C．Mannies and Women Nannies

D．Baby Boys and Their Mannies
