Finally,the car pulls into Gran and Mimi's driveway,which stretches in a thin line through the birch, ash,oak,white pine,and maple of the New Hampshire forest.Sky-blue tubes jut out from the trunks of the maples,sending sap into-a huge container far dewnthe slope.I liked visiting the farm on spring breaks before I started doing coding camps...and before I knew how badly I could mess things up. The car engine isn't off when Gran bounds toward us."You made it!"she hollers.I watch from the backseat as Dad and Mom hug Gran.I slowly grasp my backpack and drag myself out of the car.Gravity seems abnormally strong,like in the game I designed called Life on Jupiter.

You may remember your eyes meeting across a crowded room and your life changing forever.But was it really love at first sight?One in three people say they have fallen in love as soon as they laid eyes on someone.However,a study suggests the phenomenon probably doesn't exist. "People think of love at first sight as a lightning strike as soon as they see a person,"says Florian Zsok at the University of Zurich,Switzerland. Until now,research into the experience has mostly focused on people who are in relationships,which is likely to mislead our understanding of it.Such people are more likely to remember the beginning of that relationship in a positive light. So Zsok and his colleagues conducted a series of experiments in which volunteers saw new people for the first time.Each person filled in a survey and was asked how they felt about the people they saw or met. Analysing the surveys showed that people are most likely to report love at first sight when they find someone physically attractive.We tend to associate a range of positive attributes to good-looking people,a phenomenon known as the halo effect.This might help explain why people think they are falling in love with someone at first sight,says Zsok. "What you feel is emotion at first sight and is largely subconscious,"says Anna Machin at the University of Oxford."Love is an attachment that comes later.It is more complex and involves conscious reflection on a relationship." In reality it is unlikely that people ever form this kind of connection upon meeting one another,says Zsok."People like this romantic idea,but you have to read between the lines." So why do so many people feel like it has happened to them?People have misremembered the early stages of what is now a successful relationship,says Machin."It's an unconscious attempt to strengthen a relationship,"she says."Telling someone 20 years down the line that you loved them at first sight is a lovely thing to say and a good way to maintain a relationship." But Sandra Langeslag at the University of Missouri-St Louis disagrees.The fact that some people said they felt love at first sight means it does exist,as long as you use a broad definition of what love is,she says. 63.What did Zsok's experiment ask volunteers to do? A.Fall in love with strangers at first sight. B.Judge their feelings when meeling new people G.Explain the meaning of the halo effect. D.Recall how their romantic relationships started 扫描全能王创建 百 64.Why do people tend to report love at first sight? A.They are attracted by the others'appearance immediately. B.They have known the positive attributes of the strangers. C.They have formed a deep attachment upon first meeting. D.They are trained to understand the halo effect. 65.What can be inferred about"love at first sight"from Machin's words? A.It is a complex conscious emotion at the very beginning B.It is often made up to make a relationship more romantic. C.It is the most important foundation of a long-term marriage. D.It helps people avoid misunderstanding each other in later life. 66.What is the passage mainly about? A.Different ways to maintain a successful romantic relationship. B.The importance of the halo effect in developing relationships. C.Different opinions on whether love at first sight really exists. D.Scientific experiments on how people fall in love with others.

The world has been hit hard by financial problems lately and 93%of the teens said that this had affected them and their family. However,most of their own money is spent on clothes. They also talk about what matters most in terms of their choice of career. Money Survey A recent survey has investigated the way American teenagers aged 16-18 relate to money--what they do with it,how they are affected by the recent financial problems in the world and what they expect in the future.The results make interesting reading. Of those surveyed,almost all have a mobile phone and more than three-quarters have iPod or MP3 player.66%own a computer,46%own a TV and 27%own a car.67 Three out of four teens reported that they have bought new clothes in the past three months,and for girls this figure was much higher (86%).If they were given the choice.63%said they would choose a new pair of jeans rather than tickets to a concert,and 75%would choose a new pair of shoes rather than 50 new MP3 downloads. Over two-thirds of these young people do some form of work in order to eamn money.The average earnings are $1,630 per year,with boys earning more than girls.68 Only 21%of teens are not saving at all.However,if they were given $500,over half of those surveyed said they would spend the money rather than saving it. 69 Most of them are finding that they have less to spend and therefore they are shopping more carefully.55%wait'toi fteins to go'on sale af reduced prices and 42%do research to compare prices 8 扫描全能王创建 可只 and choose the best deals.Sales of tech gadgets to teens remain strong,but spending on expensive clothing has dropped.More teens arc shopping in cheaper stores and looking for second-hand bargains,while some are starting to make their own clothes.
