26、It was the day after Halloween when my grandmother was admitted to the hospital with the worst headache she’d ever had. While posing in our costumes the night before, we knew something was wrong, just not how wrong.

 Grandma’s house was the central gathering place of my family. Sunday lunches, birthday dinners, Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas — all were our traditions, with her as hostess. While my parents were busy running their small business, there were many nights when Grandma fed me and put me to bed in her spare room, until they came to get me. I spent my summers at Grandma’s and I went everywhere with her. I couldn’t imagine a time when she wouldn’t be around me.

 Then November 1,1991 began her month-long stay in the hospital—she suffered from a rare infection (感染)called nocardia asteroides. After being born in the year of the Great Depression, living through World War II, raising three kids, and being widowed at the age of 48, Grandma never expected to live into her seventies. The infection in her brain seemed to confirm that she wasn’t long for this world. But that’s not the end of her story. A team of doctors successfully removed the abscess(脓肿), and Grandma even made it into a local medical journal. Her doctor called her “the brain lady”.

 Grandma celebrated her 85th birthday in March this year. In the almost 23 years since her recovery, she’s seen two of her four grandchildren get married and welcomed three great-grandsons. Although they damage something in her house, she loves it when my two boys come over. And while I know they make her day, seeing her love blossom for another generation makes my day too. Happy Grandparents’ Day to my amazing grandmother!

A. At the age of 60.

B. When she was about 62.

C. Before November 1, 1991. 

D. After this year’s Halloween.

27、   We smile because we are happy, and we frown because we are sad. Recent studies suggest that our emotions are driven by their related facial expressions.

This February psychologists at the University of Cardiff in W ales found that people whose ability to frown is lessened by botox injections (肉毒杆菌注射) are happier, on average, than people who can frown. The researchers administered an anxiety and depression questionnaire to 25 females, half of whom had received botox injections to stop frowning. The botox injected people reported feeling happier and less anxious in general.

In a related study from March, scientists at the Technical University of Munich in Germany scanned botox injected people with FMRI machines while asking them to copy angry faces. They found that the botox subjects had much lower activity in the brain circuits (回路) involved in emotional processing and responses - in the amygdala, hypothalamus and other parts of the brain - as compared with controls who had not received treatment.

The concept works the opposite way, too. People who frown during an unpleasant procedure report feeling more pain than those who do not, according to a study published in May 2008 in the Journal of Pain. Researchers applied heat to the forearms of 29 participants, who were asked to either make unhappy, neutral or relaxed faces during the procedure. Those who exhibited negative expressions reported being in more pain than the other two groups.

No one yet knows why our facial expressions influence our emotions as they seem to. The associations in our mind between how we feel and how we react may be so strong that our expressions simply end up strengthen our emotions - there may be no evolutionary reason for the connection. Even so, our faces do seem to communicate our states of mind not only to others but also to ourselves. “I smile, so I must be happy,” Grob says.

【1】What can we know about the result of the study from paragraph 2?

A.The ability to frown should be stopped by injection.

B.Less frowns make people happier.

C.Women love to frown and feel sad.

D.Half women have no ability to feel happy.

【2】What did scientists do in the related studies?

A.They asked the participants to frown or smile.

B.They copied the expressions of the participants.

C.They asked the participants to stay negative.

D.They exposed the participants to heat.

【3】What does the passage talk about?

A.Facial expressions influence our emotions. B.Facial expressions are driven by emotions.

C.Why people feel happy and frown. D.Botox injection is useful and meaningful.

28、A funny thing happened on the way to the communications revolution: we stopped talking to one another.

I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and... I became invisible, absent from the conversation. The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent. Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a tragedy to the closeness of human interaction（互动）. With email and instant messaging over the internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct  entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom  has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.

As almost every contact we can imagine between human  beings gets automated（自动化）, the alienation index（疏远指数） goes up. You can't  even call a person to get the phone number of another person  any more. Directory assistance is almost always fully automated.

I am not against modern technology. I own a cell phone,  an ATM card, a voice mail system, and an email account. Giving them up isn't wise... they're a great help to us. It's some of  their possible consequences that make me feel uneasy.

More and more. I find myself hiding behind e­mail to do a job meant for conversation. Or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn't really have time to talk. The industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier ...or at least facilitating my antisocial instincts.

So I've put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging with people who live near me, no cell phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I'm at home.

【1】Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?

A.The Advance of Communications Technology

B.The Consequences of modern Technology

C.The Story of Communications Revolution

D.The Automation of Modern Communications

【2】The sentence “Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent” means that ________.

A.the people sitting beside you have to go away to receive a phone call

B.you can hardly get in touch with the people sitting beside you

C.modern technology makes it hard for people to have a face-­to­-face talk

D.people can now go to work without going to the office

【3】The writer feels that the use of modern communications is ________.

A.satisfying B.encouraging C.disappointing D.embarrassing

【4】The passage implies that ________.

A.modern technology is bridging the people

B.modern technology is separating the people

C.modern technology is developing too fast

D.modern technology is interrupting our communication
