As we all know it, many children have to spend their weekends and holidays attending various training courses though they are unwilling to. That’s why their parents don’t want him to fall behind at the starting line. Instead, they hope their children are equipping with as many skills as possible. Therefore they won’t lose face when comparing their children with others’. Beside, they are sure these extra classes will help their children standing out and become more competitive in the future. Actually, it was unwise to force children to do that they don’t like. Too many training classes will be heavy burden for children. Parents shouldn’t push their children too hardly.

We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job.    ___76   .

So, you have to give a speech—and you are terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble（結(jié)結(jié)巴巴） over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank Goodness, it’s over. I’m just not good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”

Cheep up!     77     . Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of your time doing your research. Then spend plenty of your time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they help you make your points more clearly.         

___78    Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.

“Dr. Papaderos, what is the meaning of life?”

All my classmates burst into laughter. Dr. Papaderos held up his hand and stilled the room and looked at me for a long time, asking with his eyes if I was serious and seeing from my eyes that I was.

“I will answer your question.”

Taking his wallet out of his hip pocket, he fished into a leather billfold and brought out a very small round mirror, about the size of a quarter. And what he said went like this:

 “When I was a small child, during the war, we were very poor and we lived in a remote village. One day, on the road, I found the broken pieces of a mirror. A German motorcycle had been wrecked(失事) in that place.

 I tried to find all the pieces and put them together, but it was not possible, so I kept only the largest piece. This one, and, by scratching it on a stone, I made it round. I began to play with it as a toy and became fascinated by the fact that I could reflect light into dark places where the sun would never shine—in deep holes and crevices（裂縫）and dark closets. It became a game for me to get light into the most inaccessible places I could find.

 I kept the little mirror, and, as I went about my growing up, I would take it out in idle moments and continue the challenge of the game. As I became a man, I grew to understand that this was not just a child’s game but a metaphor for what I might do with my life. I came to understand that I am not the light or the source of light. But light—truth, understanding, knowledge—is there, and it will shine in many dark places only if I reflect it.

I am a fragment（碎片）of a mirror whose whole design and shape I do not know. Nevertheless, with what I have I can reflect light into the dark places of this world—into the black places in the hearts of men—and change some things in some people. Perhaps others may see and do likewise（同樣地）. This is what I am about. This is the meaning of my life.”
71. On hearing the author’s question, Dr. Papaderos __________ at first.
   A. laughed at his foolishness                 B. wasn’t sure of the answer
   C. doubted his seriousness                   D. wasn’t interested at all
72. How did Dr. Papaderos get the small round mirror when he was a child?
   A. He found it on the road and made it round.
   B. A dying German soldier gave him as a present.
   C. He chanced to find it in the street while playing.
   D. He put the broken pieces together and made it.
73. Why did Dr. Papaderos like the small round mirror so much as a child?
   A. Because he was too poor to afford other toys.
   B. Because it could shine the places where the sun couldn’t reach.
   C. Because he believed it would bring good luck to him.
   D. Because it told him a lot about what life really meant to him.

Honesty may well be the policy, but it often deserts us when no one is watching, psychologists report today. Experiments with an honesty box to collect payments for hot drinks show that people are better at paying up when under the gaze(注視) of a pair of eyes. The surprise was that the eyes were not real, but photographed.

Researchers at Newcastle University set up the experiment in secret. They attached a poster to a cupboard of mugs(馬克杯) above an-honesty box alongside a kettle ,with tea, coffee and milk. Over 10 weeks, they alternated each week between images of eyes and pictures of flowers.

Dr. Bateson, a behavioral biologist and leader of the study, said that even though the eyes were not real they still seemed to make people behave more honestly. The effect may arise from behavioral characteristics that developed as early humans formed social groups that increased their chances of survival. Individuals had to co-operate for the good of the group, rather than act selfishly.

"If nobody is watching us it is in our interests to behave selfishly. But when we think we're being watched we should behave better, so people see us as co-operative and behave the same way towards us, "Dr. Bateson said.

"We thought we'd get a slight effect with eyes, but it was quite striking how much difference they made. Even at a subconscious(潛意識(shí)的) level, it seems people respond to eyes, and that might be because eyes send a strong biological signal we have evolved(進(jìn)化) to respond to."

The finding, which researchers believe sheds light on our evolutionary past, could be turned to practical use. The psychologists say images of eyes could promote ticket sales on public transport and improve monitor systems to prevent antisocial behavior.
