What does the word “heart” mean? Strictly speaking, a heart is an organ of the physical body which pumps blood into the organism(生物體). The term “heart”, however, extends to more than the physical body.

When lovers separate, one will often claim to have a broken heart, yet remain living. A sad gent or lady will often grasp the area between the ribs(肋骨) at the center of the chest, and moan (呻吟) in sorrow over the lost lover. Physical or not, the heart in this case is also something that pumps life into the emotional body.

“Don’t lose heart,” says a friend to another who has been discouraged by one of life’s many trials. Now how can anyone lose a heart? I ask. Easily, by getting discouraged. Again, the heart becomes a symbol of pumping life into a system but not a physical one.

When one gets to the heart of the matter, she gets to its center which gives its meaning. When people beg, “Have a heart,” they are asking you to be kind hearted to recognize the soul in another. Having a heart to heart talk means sharing something from the center of our being with someone else. Speaking from the heart always implies communicating from what is real and essential in our lives.

Perhaps the most common definition of the word “heart”, therefore, should recognize that “heart” is something essential to every human being, whether it is physical or not.

77．The author writes this passage to         .

       A．correct others’ inexact explanations of the word “heart”

       B．tell readers a series of humorous stories

       C．discuss how to give a good definition to the word “heart”

       D．educate people to old positive attitude towards life

78．The underlined words “this case” (in Paragraph 2) refer to         .

       A．lovers’ separation B．the death of one’s lover

       C．one hurts oneself  D．one’s crying for his or her lover

79．According to the author, how can one lose a heart?

       A．By losing what one owns.  B．By feeling sad.

       C．By hurting others. D．By getting discouraged.

80．If you would like to have a heart to heart talk with someone,           .

       A．you will follow the other’s advice without hesitation

       B．you will give your own opinion in a direct way

       C．both of you will be honest as well as open minded

       D．both of you will talk about others’ affairs instead of yours

    In the future your automobile will run on water instead of gas! You will be able to buy a supercomputer that fits in your pocket! You might even drive a flying car!

For each prediction that has come true today, several others have missed by a mile. Many of these predictions didn’t consider how people would want to use the technology. Or if people really needed it in their lives or not. Let’s look at some predictions from the not too distant past.

Robot Helpers

Where’s the robot in my kitchen? Nowhere, of course. And he’s probably not coming anytime soon. Robots do exist today, but mostly in factories and other Manufacturing environments.

Back in the 1950s, however, people said that by now personal robots would be in most people’s home.

So why hasn’t happened? Probably because robots are still too expensive and Clumsy. And maybe the idea of robots cooking our dinners and washing our clothes is just too weird. At home we seem to be doing fine without them.

Telephones of tomorrow?

In 1964 an American company introduced the video telephone. They said by the year 2000 most people would have a video phone in their homes. But of course the idea hasn’t caught on yet.

Why? The technology worked fine, but it overlooked something obvious: peoples desire for privacy. Would you want to have a video phone conversation with someone after you just stepped out of the shower?

Probably not it could be embarrassing! Just because a technology is available doesn’t always mean people will want to use it.

And finally, how about that crazy prediction of the flying car? It’s not so crazy anymore! But a flying car remains one of the most fascinating technology ideas to capture our imagination. Keep watching the news or perhaps the sky outside your window to see what the future will bring.

73．The whole passage is mainly about             .

       A．predictions that have come true             B．predictions that haven’t come true

       C．why predictions don’t come true easily  D．what will technology bring about

74．Which of the following is probably not the author’s belief?

       A．predictions needn’t consider people’s practical use of technology.

       B．The future isn’t always easy to guess.

       C．Not past predictions have come true.

       D．Many of the hightech things our parents thought we’d be using by now simply never appeared.

75．The underlined word “weird” probably means          .

       A．wonderful           B．stupid                  C．practical              D．strange

76．What does the author think of the flying car?

       A．It is too difficult to imagine.                  B．It is too crazy an idea.

       C．It is likely to be made.                          D．It is often reported in the news.

Mauritius, with its full name the Republic of Mauritius, an island country, lies 1,200 miles off the southeastern coast of Africa, and just east of Madagascar, another African island country, which is larger by far than Mauritius. It covers 788 square miles and has a population of 1,00,000, about 750.000 Indians, 300,000 Chinese and 20,000 Whites included. They are living together peacefully, although they share such different beliefs as Hindu, Roman Catholic, Muslim and so on.

The country can be divided into many parts with different climate all because of its peculiar terrains (地形). In the center there are volcanoes several thousand feet high, and 90% of its arable land is covered with sugarcane.

There are no people living on the island before the Dutch landed on it in 1638. The Dutch abandoned it in 1710, and five years later, the French came and succeeded in planting sugarcane there. It was conquered by Britain in 1818. As a result, its official language is English. The main big cities are Beau Bassin and Mahebourg, with Port Louis as its capital.

Mauritius has many rare and unique animals, such as the snakes, parrots and lizards. The giraffe is a type of animal with a very long neck and legs and yellow skin with dark spots. It is the tallest of all living animals.

Mauritius was extremely poor when it declared its independence in 1968. In the past ten years, obvious economic prosperity has shown itself in this island country. Nowadays its business, culture and tourism are developing rapidly. Every year, thousands of millions of people rush there to enjoy the silver sand beach and song and dance performances with native national characters.

Bestselling horror writer Stephen has another hit on his hands but don’t go looking for it at our bookstore. King’s new ghost story, Riding the Bullet is only available on the Internet. The story which King wrote while he was recovering from serious injuries which happened to him in a hit and run accident near his summer home in Maine last year produced instant traffic blocks on the Web the moment it became published and availed online at 12:01 a. m. Tuesday.

King gave out a statement saying “he is curious to see what sort of reaction there is and whether or not this is the future of publishing.” He is not the first author to make his work available wholly online, but he is the first among the top ranks of writers to take that step.

King told Time magazine that his experiment with putting his story Riding the Bullet on the Internet has been so successful that he is considering putting a fulllength book online. “The new way of publishing”, said King, “could exactly change the way people regard reading.” The story was put out fully over the Web and it will only be available on the Internet, as an “e book”. It was given away for free the first 24 hours. After that readers could download it for $ 2.50. As of Sunday, more than 5,000,000 people had downloaded the piece.

Simon & Schuster, which is electronically publishing the e book, says 4,000,000 readers ordered it in the first 24 hours during which it was available. The company is now in talks with other authors about publishing more e books. Publishers say King’s decision to publish the story fully online shows that the e book format (式樣)is here to stay. King himself says the Internet has great promise as a way to share our literature, but he doesn’t think “anything will take the place of the printed word and the book with a cover.”

61．How will readers get a copy of King’s new book Riding the Bullet?

       A．Order it from the local bookstores.        B．Download it from the Internet for free.

       B．King was interviewed by Time magazine for his new book.

       C．The publisher of the book Riding the Bullet is willing to work with King in a larger size.

       D．King is going to change the way people read.

63．The word “e book ” in paragraph 3 is probably taken from            .

       A．easy to read book                           B．express book

       C．English book                                           D．electronic book

64．The first two paragraphs suggest that         .
