Although interior design has existed since the beginning of architecture, its development 【21】______ a specialized field is really quite recent.

The importance of interior design becomes 【26】______ when we realize how much time we spend in places surrounded by four walls.

by memory of all the basic things one must know is a most incredible and unending effort. School is not easy and it is not for the most part very much fun, but then, if you are very lucky, you may find a real teacher. Three teachers in a lifetime are the very best of my luck. My first was a science and math teacher in high school, my second, a professor of creative writing at Stanford, and my third was my friend and partner, ED Rickets.

I have to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that three are as few as there are any other great artists. It might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit.

My three teachers had these things in common: They all loved what they were doing; they did not tell, but stimulated a burning desire to know. Under their influence, the horizons sprang wide and fear went away and the unknown became knowable.

I shall speak only of my first teacher because in addition to the other things, she brought discovery. She aroused us to shouting, book-waving discussions. She had the noisiest class in school and she did not even seem to know it. We could never stick to the subject. Our speculation (思绪) ranged the world. She breathed curiosity into us so that we brought in facts or truths shielded in our hands like captured fireflies (萤火虫).

She was fired, and perhaps rightly so, for failing to teach fundamentals. Such things must be learned. But she left a passion in us for the pure knowable world and she inflamed me with a curiosity which has never left. I have had many teachers who told me soon-forgotten facts but only three who created in me a new attitude a new hunger. What deathless power lies in the hands of such a person？

More Than One Kind of Intelligence❶You may have heard people mention "IQ''

More Than One Kind of Intelligence

❶You may have heard people mention "IQ'' when talking about how smart someone is. IQ stands for "intelligence quotient (智商)" It can help predict how well someone may do academically.

❷IQ is just one measure of our abilities. There are many other kinds of intelligence. For example, spatial (空间的)intelligence is the ability to think in 3D. Musical intelligence is the ability to recognize rhythm and tone. Abilities in sports and arts are other types of intelligence.

❸ Another important type of intelligence is emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence (EQ for short) is the ability to understand, use, and manage our emotions. Just as a high IQ can predict top test scores, a high EQ can predict success in social and emotional situations. EQ helps us build strong relationships, make good decisions, and deal with difficult situations.

❹ One way to think about EQ is that it is part of being people-smart. Understanding and getting along with people help us become successful in our lives. In fact, some studies show that EQ is more important than IQ when it comes to doing well in school or being successful at work.

❺Some people are born with good EQ skills; others need to work on them. Everyone can get better if they know what to do. Being able to notice and label everyday feelings is the most basic EQ skills. Being aware of emotions helps us manage our own emotions. It also helps us understand how others feel.

landing in dense fog, a pilot must use radar, an alternative way of navigating. Since human eyes are not very good at determining speeds of approaching objects, radar can show a pilot how fast nearby planes are moving. The basic principle of radar is exemplified by what happens when one shouts in a cave. The echo of the sounds against the walls helps a person determine the size of the cave. With radar, however, the waves are radio waves instead of sound waves. Radio waves travel at the speed of light, about 300, 000 kilometers in one second. A radar set sends out a short burst of radio waves: Then it receives the echoes produced when the waves bounce off objects. By determining the time it takes for the echoes to return to the radar set, a trained technician can determine the distance between the radar set and other objects. The word "radar," in fact, gets its name from the term "radio detection and ranging." "Ranging" is the term for detection of the distance between an object and the radar set. Besides being of critical importance to pilots, radar is essential for air traffic control, tracking ships at sea, and for tracking weather systems and storms.

What is the main topic of this passage？

A．The nature of radar.

B．Types of ranging.

C．Alternatives to radars.

D．History of radar.

听力原文：M: Mary, (19)you want to talk about your second essay, right？

W: Yes, Dr. Richardson. I just need your comments on what I'm planning to do. (19)I'm doing the essay on the differences between TV news programs at different hours of the day.

M: How many times slots are you planning to consider？

W: Well, I think I'd look at all of them. That'd be five slots. The breakfast news, midmorning news. midday news. mid-afternoon news and evening news.

M: That's rather a lot. And you'd have too much to consider. (20)Why don't you just do two. Say the midmorning and then evening news. That should give you two contrasting approaches with two main audience compositions.

W: OK, just two then.

M: Yes, I think that would be much better. Now how many actual programs do you plan to work with？

W: What do you think of analyzing a whole week's news programs？

M: Well, that depends on how much of each program, if you concentrate on one particular type of news item, say the sports news or local items, it might be alright.

W: Yes. that would be a good idea. (21)I won't make a decision before I collect a sample of programs over a whole week. I'll look at them and see what items appear throughout the week.

M: Yes, that's a sound approach. (22)Now we’re getting close to the deadline. Can you finish it in time？

W: Yes, I think so. I've completed the reading and I know what my basic approach is, so it's really just a matter of pulling it all together now.

M: Fine, Mary. I'll look forward to reading it.

A．To discuss the second essay.

Who won the 2008 World Cup soccer game？ What happened at the United Nations？ How did the critics like the new play？ Just when an event takes place, newspapers are on the streets to give the details. Wherever anything happens in the world, reporters are on the spot to gather news.

Newspapers have one basic purpose – to get news as quickly as possible from their source, from those who make it to those who want to know it. Radio, television, and other inventions brought competition for newspapers, so did the development of magazines and other means of communication. However, this competition merely stimulated the newspapers to quickly make use of the newer and faster means of communication to improve the speed of their own operations. Today more newspapers are printed and read than ever before. Competition also led newspapers to branch out into many other fields. Besides keeping readers informed of the latest news, today’s newspapers educate and influence readers about politics and other important and serious matters.

Newspapers influence readers’ economic choices through advertising. Most depend on advertising for their very existence. Newspapers are sold at a price that fails to cover even a small part of the production cost. The main source of income for most newspapers is advertising. The success in selling advertising depends on a newspaper’s value to advertisers. This is measured in terms of circulation (发行量): How many people read the newspaper？ Circulation depends, to some extent, on the work of the circulation department and on the services or entertainment offered in a newspaper’s pages. But for the most part, circulation depends on a newspaper’s value to readers as a source of information about the community, city, country, state, nation, and world – and even outer space.
