20、 way back my wife noticed a cupboard (柜廚) outside a furniture shop. It was tall and narrow. “Buy it, ” my wife said at once. “Well carry it home on the roof rack. Ive always wanted one like that.” What could I do? Ten minutes later I was 20 poorer; and the cupboard was tied on the roof rack. It was

21、six feet long and eighteen inches square, quite heavy too.In the gathering darkness I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed unusually polite that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea.After a time my wife said, “Theres a long line of cars behind.

22、 Why dont they overtake, I wonder?” In fact a police car did overtake. The two officers inside looked at us seriously as they passed. But then, with great kindness, they led us through the rush-hour traffic. The police car stopped at our village church. One of the officers came to me.“Right, sir, ”

23、he said. “Do you need any more help?” I was a bit puzzled. “Thanks, officer, ” I said. “You have been very kind. I live just on the road.” He was staring at our car, first at the flowers, then at the cupboard. “Well, well, ” he said, laughing. “Its a cupboard youve got there! We thought it was somet

24、hing else.” My wife began to laugh. The truth hit me like a stone between the eyes. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, its a cupboard, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could. 41.

He took great pride in it.D. He was puzzled at it.BA lot of us lose lifes tough battles by starting a frontal(正面的) attack

27、when a touch of humor might well enable us to win. Consider the case of a young friend of mine, who hit a traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum(最后通牒) about being late on the job. Although there was a good reason for Sams a being lateserious illness at homehe decided tha

28、t this by-now-familiar excuse wouldnt work any longer. His supervisor was probably already pacing up and down preparing a dismissal speech.Yes, the boss was, Sam entered the office at 9:35. The place was as quiet as a locker room(更衣室); everyone was hard at work. Sams supervisor came up to him. Sudde

29、nly, Sam forced a grin and stretched out his hand. “How do you do!” he said. “Im Sam Maynard. Im applying for a job. Which, I understand, became available just 35 minutes ago. Does the early bird get the worm?”The room exploded in laughter. The supervisor clamped off a smile and walked back to his o

30、ffice. Sam Maynard had saved his jobwith the only tool that could win, a laugh.Humor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected(忽略), means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying “no”, criticizing, getting the other fellow

31、 to do what you want without his losing face. For some jobs, its the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialog may start a quarrel. For example, many believe that comedians(喜劇演員) on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance(

32、忍受力) than people in any other forum.45. Why was Sam late for his job?A. Because he was ill. B. Because he got up late.C. Because he was caught in a traffic jam. D.

34、lacking in a sense of humor.B. It wasnt the first time that Sam came late for his work.C. Sam was supposed to come to his office at 8:30.D. Humor is the most effective way of solving problems.C After a couple has had their first child, to their disappointment they became infertile and couldnt have m

35、ore children. Cloning would enable such a couple to have a second child, perhaps a younger twin to the child they already have. Many couples have difficulty having children, and sometimes it is impossible for couples to have children because they are infertile. Cloning would allow these couples to h

36、ave children. It is hard to tell someone that they cannot use cloning to have children when no other possible ways to have children are available. This is one reason why it is difficult to decide whether cloning is moral or not. The following are some of the reasons why cloning should be allowed. Th

37、rough cloning, research can progress. We possibly can learn more about cell. We may develop technology to allow easier genetic testing and fixing problems such as spinal cord injuries, cancer, and many more. Cloning organs for organ transplants (移植) is one of the major practical reasons that cloning

38、 should be allowed. There is always a high demand for organs. Some argue for the cloning of humans to create extra body parts. Others talk of just wanting to clone an organ to replace a faulty organ. Rejuvenation (恢復(fù)青春) is also a key argument for advocates (提倡) of cloning. Some scientists believe th

39、at injecting cloned healthy heart cells into damaged heart tissue will lead to healing of the heart. By combining the technology for cloning and the technology for growing human stem cells, conditions like Alzheimers, Parkinsons, and some other ageing disease may be curable. The possibilities are en

40、dless and may be left undiscovered if human cloning is forbidden.49.
