He took the only escape route—through the boot (行李箱).Mr. Johnson’s car had ended up in a ditch (沟渠) at Romney Marsin, Kent after he lost proper control on ice and hit a bank. “Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly,” Mr. Johnson said. “I couldn’t force the doors open b ecause they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows because I knew water would come flooding in.”Mr. Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof and boot. Then he began his struggle to escape.Later he said, “It was really a half penny that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew (拧开) the back seat to get into the boot. I hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone hear, but no help came.”It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the boot. Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench (扳手) and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen minutes passed by. “It was the only chance I had. Finally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and climbed up clear as the car filled up.”His hands and arms cut and bruised, Mr. Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby. Huddled in a blanket, he said, “That thirty minutes seemed like hours.” Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night. The vehicle had sunk into two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch.56.

Your appearance can do a lot for you, especially if you are in the financial industry. The more trustworthy you look, the more likely people will buy what you’re selling.Researchers from Britain’s University of Warwick Business School, University C ollege London, and Dartmouth College, US, did a number of experiments.The research team used computer software to make 40 faces, from the least to the most trustworthy-looking.The study said that the difference between a trustworthy face and one that isn’t as trustworthy comes from features that look slightly angry or slightly happy, even when the face is at rest. However, a slightly happy face is more likely to be trusted.Researchers gave participants some money and asked them which face they trusted to invest the money for them. Then researchers gave some good and bad information about the people with these faces, and asked the participants again whom they trusted.The results showed that even if they got different information, the participants didn’t c hange their choices. They were still more likely to invest their money with the more trustworthy-looking faces.Chris Olivola, one of the study’s authors, said in the University of Warwick’s press release: “It seems that we are still willing to go with our own instincts (本能) about whether we think someone looks like we can trust them. The temptation (诱惑) to judge strangers by their faces is hard to resist.”64. According to the study, which of the following faces is most likely to be trusted?A. A sad face.B. An angry face.C. A crying face.D. A smiling face.65. Which of the following about the experiment is TRUE?A. The trustworthy faces were given good information.B. Researchers took photos of the 40 people’s faces in college.C. Participants liked to choose the faces with good information.D. Most participants gave their money to the trustworthy-looking faces.66. What did the researchers learn from their experiment?A. People can’t refuse temptations.B. People often judge strangers by their faces.C. People always do things with their instincts.D. People don’t trust strangers with sad faces.67.Which of the following can be a proper title for this passage?A.What kind of face do you trust?B. Who did the experiments?C. Why do you trust him or her?D. Why did they do the experiments?DAt exactly eleven Sir Percival knocked and entered, with anxiety and worry in every line of his face. This meeting would decide his future life, and he obviously knew it.“You may wonder, Sir Percival,” said Laura calmly, “if I am going to ask to be released from my promise to marry you. I am not going to ask this. I respect my father’s wishes too much.”His face relaxed a little, but one of his feet kept beating the carpet.“No, if we are going to with draw from our planned marriage, it will be because of your wish, not mine.”"Mine?” he said in great surprise. ”What reason could I have for withdrawing?”"A reason that is very hard to tell you,” she answered. "There is a change in me.”His face went so pale that even his lips lost their color. He turned his head to one side.“What change?" he asked, trying to appear calm."When the promise was made two years ago", she said, “my love did not belong to anyone. Will you forgive me, Sir Percival, if I tell you that it now belongs to another person?"“I wish you to understand", Laura continued, “that I will never see this person again, and that if you leave me, you only allow me to remain a single woman for the rest of my life. All I ask is that you for give me and keep my secret.”“I will do both those things, " he said. Then he looked at Laura, as if he was waiting to hear more."I think I have said enough to give you reason to withdraw from our marriage,” she added."No. You have said enough to make it the dearest wish of my life to marry you,” he said.68.
