Seated in a convertible（敞蓬车）with the top down at 60 miles an hour,Mary looked at the flies that sat on top of Mark’s hair.How could they stay there?She wondered.
Mary had not seen Mark in years,until the other day when he came into the cafe where she worked.His
appearance was different from when he was in high school.Now,he was a bit fat and thick glasses covered his eyes.However,that didn’t change Mary’s feelings for him at all.He had just bought a brand new red sports car and asked her if she would like to go for a ride and then have dinner with him.Her heart beat with excitement as he opened the door for her.She noticed something very strange as Mark got into the car started to drive away.On the hair was a group of flies just sitting there.
Mary stared in amazement.It seemed the faster they drove,the more determined the flies were to stick to his hair. Mary remained silent.She leaned forward and turned the radio on,to try to divert her attention away from the flies,but she couldn’t help thinking about them.She looked up at Mark,who was completely devoted to what was going on and continued to sing to the music while driving merrily along.
Finally,Mark pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road beside a diner and looked in the mirror and said,”May,I would like to comb my hair before we get something to cat.Could you reach under the seat and give me my hair cream?”
Mary reached under the seat and pulled cut a camping backpack,which contained a round jar and started to laugh wildly as she pointed to the label（商标）.
“That’s not hair cream on your hair,Mark!It says it’s Fly Trap Glue（捕蝇胶）！” 29.What did Mary probably do? A.A car saleswoman.

According to body language expert Robert Phipps,the way people sleep at night actually determines a lot about the type of personality they have.Phipps has identified four sleeping positions that affect personality.
Phipps found that worriers,those who stress the most,tend to sleep in the fetal（胎儿的）position.He found that this is the most common bedtime position,with nearly 58 percent of people sleeping on their side with knees up and head down.The more we curl up（蜷曲）,the more comfort we are seeking,according to Phipps.
The second most common position is the log.Sleeping with a straight body,with arms at each side,as if they are standing guard at Buckingham Palace,indicates stubbornness,and these people（the 28 percent who sleep this way）often wake up stiffer（僵硬的）than when they went to sleep.
“The longer you sleep like this,the more rigid your thinking is and you can become inflexible,which means you make things harder for yourself,”according to Phipps.
Yearner（向往型）sleepers are next on the list.About 25 percent of people sleep in this style-on their side with arms stretched out in front,looking as if they are either chasing a dream or perhaps being chased themselves.Yearners are typically their own worst critics,always expecting the best results,explained Phipps.These people often wake up refreshed and eager to face the challenges of the day ahead.
Perhaps the most peculiar（奇怪的）of sleep styles is the freefaller position.This sleep style makes up 17 percent of the population.They sleep face down with arms stretched out.These people,according to Phipps,feel like they have little control over their life.Not only is this the strangest of sleep styles,but also the least comfortable,and people may wake up feeling tired and have no energy.
In conclusion,Phipps has only one more thing to add:”A good night’s sleep sets you up for the following day and our sleeping positions can determine how we feel when we wake.”
33．Which of the following pictures is the fetal position?
34．The underlined word \ \A.stubborn
B.flexible
C.comfortable
D.strange
35．Which sleeping position indicates that the sleeper tends to seek perfection? A.The fetal position.
B.The log position.
C.The yearner position. D.The freefaller position. 【答案】DAC
【解析】1．考查细节理解。根据第二段中的\with knees up and head down\可知,\胎儿睡姿\的姿势是\侧躺,头朝下、膝盖往上蜷成一团\故选D项。 2．考查词义猜测。根据第三段中的\和第四段中的\可推知,该词与A项意思最接近。
3．考查细节理解。根据第五段第三句中的\expecting the best results\可知,\向往型睡姿\的人对自己要求严格,追求完美。
【备注】本文为说明文。肢体语言专家发现,人们睡觉的姿势实际上揭示了很多个性类型的信息。
According to body language expert Robert Phipps, the way people sleep at night actually determines a lot about the type of personality they have.
分析:本句为主从复合句。主句是the way...actually determines a lot about the type of personality。people sleep at night是定语从句,修饰the way。they have也是定语从句,修饰the type of personality。 译文:根据肢体语言专家Robert Phipps的说法,人们晚上睡觉的姿势实际上揭示了很多关于他们个性类型的信息。

How to Protect Yourself from Hackers Online
An increase in cyber-attacks (网络攻击) makes the Internet seem like a scary place these days. How can individuals protect or make it more difficult for hackers to access their information? Here are several tips that can help you protect against cyber-attacks: 18
Hard passwords include upper and lower case letters, numbers and special characters. They should be at least eight characters in length. They should also not spell out words easy for hackers to find, like your pet's name or the name of a family member. Change your password regularly
A very common mistake made by users is to create one hard password, but then never change it. Remembering a long list of complicated passwords can be difficult. But no password is unbreakable. Hackers are better able to hack multiple accounts if those accounts all have the same password. A password management service, like Dashlane or PasswordBox, can help you keep track of hard passwords. 19 Clear your browser (浏览器) history
