21、 There was once a professor of medicine, who was very strict with the students. Whenever he took the chair on the exam committee(担任考试委员会主席), the students would be in fear, because he was seldom pleased with the answers they gave. A student would be lucky enough if he or she could receive a good mark from him. At the end of the term, the students of medicine would take their exam again. Now a student entered the exam room and got seated before the committee. This student was a little nervous as he knew it would not be so easy to get through the exam at all.
The professor began to ask. The student was required to describe a certain illness, his description of which turned to（结果是）be OK.
Then the professor asked about the cure (药剂) for illness, and the student, too, answered just as right.
“Good,” said the professor, “and how much will you give the patient?”
“A full spoon”, answered the student.
“Now you may go out and wait for what you can get.”, said the professor. At the same time, the committee discussed carefully the answers the student had given. Suddenly the student noticed that there was something wrong with his last answer. “ A full spoon is too much,” he thought to himself. Anxiously he opened the door of the room and cried, “Mr Professor, I’ve make a mistake! A full spoon is too much for a patient. He can take only five drops.”
“I’m sorry, sir.” Said the professor coldly, “But it’s too late. Your patient has died.”

C.Since one spoon is less than five drops, the patient will be all right soon if he takes only one full spoon at a time.

22、5 Birthday Traditions from Around the World
The Western idea of celebrating a birthday with cake and candles has certainly caught on in other parts of the world, but many cultures have long-standing traditional ways to celebrate that don’t involve a sugar rush. 【1】
Many of them are more traditional and unbelievable than a reality, but if you happen to be in Germany and see a group of men with a broom on the steps of city hall, you’ll at least know what they’re doing.
1. Canada: Nose Grease
On the Atlantic side of Canada, birthday boys and girls are sometimes “attacked” and their noses are greased(涂抹), usually with butter, to ward off bad luck. 【2】
“It was good luck as much as torture(折磨) as I remember it.” We would imagine so!
2. China: Long Noodles for Longevity
Chinese birthday tradition maintains that one should symbolize their longevity by eating a plate of long noodles often mixed with fried eggs. 【3】
3. Germany: 【4】
When single men in Germany turn 30, an old tradition is for them to sweep the steps of their local city hall as their friends toss rubble onto them. The ordeal, meant to embarrass, is supposed to carry on until the birthday boy is able to plant one on a passing woman. Also, as this author personally found out recently, you buy the drinks for your friends on your birthday, unlike in the States where it is the other way around.
4. Ireland: Hit the Deck
Think the Irish had a few when coming up with this one? Tradition maintains that a child is held upside down and is “bumped” (举放) on the floor, once for every year of their age plus one for good luck. 【5】
5. Jamaica: Modern Day Antiquing
Just like that one friend you had in college, Jamaicans think pouring flour onto their friends is fun. Regardless of age, tradition calls for the birthday boy or girl to be “antiqued,” or covered with flour, by friends and family, either at an organized party or as part of a surprise.
A．Giving the City Hall a thorough cleaning
B．Sweeping the Streets of the City Hall
C．It is believed that in Pictou “the butter got worse as you got older”.
D．Everyone present hopes to become lucky by sharing the noodles.
E．It is really dangerous for a child to be lifted in such a way.
F．We’re guessing lawyers would have something to say about this in the United States!
G．Obviously, the practices found in the list below are not entirely representative of the preferences of every household or individual.
23、Are you content with the shape of your nose? If not, the climate may be to blame, not your parents.
According to a recent study carried out by scientists from Pennsylvania State University, US, climate played a key role in shaping our noses.The findings were based on an examination of the size and shape of noses of 476 people from four regions — West Africa, East Asia, South Asia and Northern Europe, using 3D facial imaging technology.
“People have thought for a long time the difference in nose shape among humans across the world may have arisen as a result of natural selection because of climate，” Arslan Zaidi, one of the lead authors of the study, told The Guardian.But while previous studies were based on measurements from human skulls, Zaidi and his team looked at nose shape itself.
The result showed that wider noses are more common in warm and humid climate, while narrower noses are more common in cold and dry climate.That, Zaidi said, could be because narrower nasal passages help to increase the moisture (潮湿) content of air and warm it, which is easier on our lungs.This, in turn, led to a gradual decrease in nose width in populations living far away from the equator.
More studies are still needed to test the link between climate and nose shape, but Zaidi believes the current findings are valuable in understanding potential health issues.“As we become more of a global community, we are going to come across climate that we do not adapt to，” he told The Guardian.This means moving to a very different climate might increase the risk of breathing problems.
However, he added, “This may not be necessarily true for various reasons such as of modern medicine and the fact that our current climate is very different from what it used to be.”
【1】From the passage we know most people from Singapore have noses.
A. wider B. narrower
C. smaller D. larger
【2】Narrower noses are helpful to .
A. cool the air B. warm the air
C. take in more oxygen D. dry the air
【3】What can be learned about the study?
A. Zaidi’s team measured human skulls using 3D technology.
B. The shape of our noses is determined by our parents.
C. Nose shape helps people adapt to the environment.
D. It’s certain that people will suffer from more breathing problems.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. What factors shape noses?
B. How to make your nose attractive?
C. Nose shape causes breathing problems
D. Climate shapes noses
24、While waiting to pick up a friend at an airport in Portland, Oregon, I had one of those life changing experiences that you hear other people talk about — the kind that happens to you unexpectedly. To me, this happened and was only two feet away from me.
Locating my friend among the passengers, I noticed a man coming toward me carrying two light bags. He stopped right next to me to greet his family.
First he walked to his youngest son (maybe 6 years old) as he laid down his bags. They gave each other a long, loving hug. As they separated enough to look in each other’s face, I heard the father say, “It’s so good to see you, son. I missed you so much！” His son smiled somewhat shyly, and replied softly, “Me too, Dad！”
Then the man stood up, gazed into the eyes of his oldest son (maybe 9 or 10) and while cupping his son’s face in his hands said, “You’re already quite a young man. I love you very much, Zach！” They too hugged a most loving, tender hug.
While this was happening, a baby girl (perhaps one or oneandahalfyear old) was squirming (扭动) excitedly in her mother’s arms, never once taking her little eyes off the wonderful sight of her returning father. The man said，“Hi, baby girl！” as he gently took the child from her mother. He quickly kissed her face all over and then held her close to his chest while rocking her from side to side. The little girl instantly relaxed and simply laid her head on his shoulder, motionless in pure contentment.
After several moments, he handed his daughter to his oldest son and declared, “I’ve saved the best for last！” and went to give his wife the longest, most passionate kiss I ever remember seeing. He gazed into her eyes for several seconds and then silently mouthed, “I love you so much！” They stared into each other’s eyes, beaming big smiles at one another, while holding both hands.
For an instant they reminded me of newlyweds, but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldn’t possibly be. I puzzled about it for a moment then realized how totally attentive I was in the wonderful display of unconditional love not more than an arm’s length away from me. I suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if I was invading something sacred, but was amazed to hear my own voice nervously ask，“Wow! How long have you two been married？”
“Been together fourteen years total, married twelve of those.” he replied, without breaking his gaze from his lovely wife’s face. “Well then, how long have you been away？” I asked. The man finally turned and looked at me, still beaming his joyous smile. “Two whole days！”
Two days? I was stunned. I had assumed he’d been gone for at least several weeks — if not months. I know my expression betrayed me. “I hope my marriage is still that passionate after twelve years！”
The man suddenly stopped smiling.
He looked me straight in the eye, and with forcefulness that burned right into my soul, he told me something that left me a different person, “Don’t hope, friend ... decide！” Then he flashed me his wonderful smile again, shook my hand and said, “God bless！”
With that, he and his family turned and walked away together. I was still watching that exceptional man and his special family walk just out of sight when my friend came up to me and asked, “What are you looking at？” Without hesitating, and with a curious sense of certainty, I replied，“My future！”
