The sun is a star. It is a flaming ball of extremely 1 gases. The surface temperature is about 11,000 F., hot enough to turn every 2 to vapor (氣體), but relatively cool compared to the strong heat at the 3 .
Located about 93 million miles 4 the earth, the sun has a diameter (直徑) that is nearly equal to 109 of our ear ths 5 up like a row of beach balls, and a mass that is about 330 000 times the mass of the earth.
The sun is the original source of nearly all our 6 . It is mostly made of hydrogen (氫), 7 it also contains nearly every other kind of atom (原子 )that exists on the earth. The sun obtains its energy from a process of fusion (溶解) in which hydrogen atoms are changed into helium (氦) atoms 8 extreme heat and pressure. This process creates a great noise, but we cannot hear it because 9 does not travel through empty space.
Our sun is not even 10 large or bright compared to 11 stars. Stars vary in size from smaller than the earth to large enough to hold a good part of our solar system (太陽系)! The 12 of a star shows its temperature. A star may be red, yellow, white, or blue.
The nearest star is 4.3 light years from the earth. A light year is the 13 light travels in one year, or about 6 million miles. The 14 stars are billions of light years away. Some are 15 far away that if they were to blow up today, their light would continue to be seen from the earth 16 a million years! Our sun is part of a great galaxy (星系) of 30 billion stars called the Milky Way. 17 , there are billions of galaxies within 18 of our telescopes and countless billions beyond. The bigness of space quite __19 human comprehension. How exciting it is to live in an age 20 human beings have begun to explore that space.

Reading to oneself is a modern activity which was almost unknown to the learned in the early days of the history, while during the fifteenth century the term “reading” undoubtedly meant reading aloud. Only during the nineteenth century did silent reading become popular.
One should be careful, however, of supposing that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud is distraction（分散注意力）to others. Examination of reasons connected with the historical development of silent reading shows that it became the usual mode of reading for most adult reading tasks mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character.
The last century saw a gradual increase in literacy（讀寫能力）and thus in the number of readers. As readers increased, so the number of listeners dropped, and thus there was some reduction in the need to read aloud. As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the popularity of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries, trains and offices, where reading aloud would disturb other readers in a way.
Towards the end of the century there was still heated argument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully, and over whether the reading of material such as newspapers was in some way mentally weakening. Indeed this argument remains with us still in education. However, whatever its advantages are, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media on the one hand and by books and magazines for a specialized readership on the other.
By the end of t he century students were being advised to have some new ideas of books and to use skills in reading them which were not proper, if not impossible, for the oral reader. The social, cultural, and technological developments in the century had greatly changed what the term “reading” referred to.
68．Why was reading aloud common before the nineteenth century?
A. Because silent reading had not been discovered.
B. Because there were few places for private reading.
C. Because few people could read for themselves.
D. Because people depended on reading for enjoyment.
69．The development of silent reading during the nineteenth century showed_______.
A. a change in the position of literate people
B. a change in the nature of reading
C. an increase in the number of books
D. an increase in the average age of readers
70． Educationalists are still arguing about__________.
A. the importance of silent reading
B. the amount of information provided by books and newspapers
C. the effects of reading on health
D. the value of different types of reading material
Why do some people have many friends while others do not? __1__ However, it is not so. Let's look at two psychological experiments which will give you the key to happy interpersonal relations.
The first experiment is called the “Hawthorne effect” after Hawthorne, Illinois, where the experiment took place. A group of psychologists examined the work patterns of two groups of workers in the Western Electric Company.__2__The psychologists changed the working conditions for one group twice but left the other group alone. They were surprised to find that productivity increase on both occasions and in both groups.
They concluded that the increase in productivity came from the attention given to the workers by the management. It had increased their motivation (積極性) and so they had worked harder. In other words, if you take an interest in others ，they will want to please you and you will have good relations with them.
__3__ After Martin Luther King, Jr was killed in the 1960s, a teacher, Jane Elliott, living in an all – white town decided to help her class of young children understand why the Civil Rights Movement had been necessary in America.
She divided the class into two groups: one with blue eyes and the other with brown eyes. Other eye colours such as hazel or green were excluded from his exercise. Then she told the class that brown－eyed people were cleverer than blue－eyed ones because of an agent (化學作用) for brown colour found in their blood. Blue－eyed people were stupid, lazy and not to be trusted. Jane Elliott did not need to say any more.
The brown－eyed students quickly got used to their new role as the leaders of the class. The blue－eyed students became quiet and withdrawn. Then she discovered something very interesting. Four poor brown－eyed readers began to read fluently in a way they had never done before. __4__ So if you want to be successful and happy, take an interest in others whether they are your classmates or workmates. Congratulate them on their successes and sympathise(同情) with them in their troubles. __5__
A. Before the experiment the management talked to both groups of workers and explained that they wanted to find the best working environment for them.
B. Remember that the way you treat others will decide their attitude and behaviour to you.
C. The second experiment shows what happens to personal relations if you are rude to or ignore(忽略) others.
D. The ones who have more friends usually are those who care about others.
E. Jane Elliott had shown that the way people are treated affects not only their behaviour but also their confidence and their performance.
F．You may even imagine that this ability was something they were born with because it seems so effortless to them.
G. The second experiment tells us what teachers said has a great effect on the students.
