15、s students. The case at hand was a Guatemalan man, aged 34, who had a fever and many other medical problems. His condition was not improving, and there was not much hope he would live.Dr. Mellinkoff asked to see the patient. He introduced himself in Spanish and, in a very gentle voice, asked how he
16、felt. The patient smiled and said everything was all right. Then the doctor asked if he was able to eat. The patient said that he had no desire to eat.“Are you getting food you like?”The patient said nothing.“Do you get the kind of food you have at home?”The answer was no.The doctor put his hand on
17、the mans shoulder and his voice was very soft.“If, you had food that you liked, would you eat it?”“Yes, yes.” the patient said.The change in the patients appearance couldnt have been more obvious. Nothing was said, but it was easy to tell that a message had been sent and had also been received.Later
18、, the doctor asked why the Guatemalan man wasnt getting food he could eat. One of the students said, “We all know how difficult it is to get the kitchen to make special meals.”“Suppose,” the doctor replied, “you felt a certain medicine was absolutely necessary but that our hospital didnt carry it, w
19、ould you accept defeat or would you insist the hospital meet your request?”“I would probably insist,” the student said.“Very well,” the doctor said. “You might want to try the same method in the kitchen. It wont be easy, but I can help you. Meanwhile, lets get some food inside this man as fast as po
20、ssible, and stay with it. Or hell be killed by hunger. By the way, there must be someone among you who can speak Spanish.

Of course I look familiar. I was here just last week cleaning your carpets, painting your shutters, or delivering your ne
25、w refrigerator. 2. Hey, thanks for letting me use the bathroom when I was working in your yard last week. While I was in your home, I unlatched the back window to make my return a little easier.3. To you, leaving that window open just a crack during the day is a way to let in a little fresh air. To
26、me, its an invitation which I am more than happy to accept.4. If it snows while youre out of town, get a neighbor to create car and foot tracks into the house, or it will be a dead giveaway. By the way, loud dogs and nosy neighbors are the two things I hate most. 5. Its raining. Youre fumbling with
27、your umbrella, and you forget to lock your door-understandable. But understand this: I dont take a day off because of bad weather. 6. Do you really think I wont look in your sock drawer? I always check dresser drawers, the bedside table, and the medicine cabinet. Heres a helpful hint: I almost never

Many of us use a lift several times during the day witho
32、ut really thinking about it. But Lee Gray, PhD, of the University of North Carolina, US, has made it his business to examine this overlooked form of public transport. He is known as the “Elevator Guy”. “The lift becomes this interesting social space where etiquette (礼仪) is sort of odd (奇怪的),” Gray t
33、old the BBC. “The elevators are socially very interesting but often very awkward places.” We walk in and usually turn around to face the door. If someone else comes in, we may have to move. And here, according to Gray, liftusers unthinkingly go through a set pattern of movements. He told the BBC wha
34、t he had observed. He explained that when you are the only one inside a lift, you can do whatever you want its your own little box. If there are two of you, you go into different corners, standing diagonally (对角线地) across from each other to create distance. When a third person enters, you will uncon
35、sciously form a triangle. And when there is a fourth person it becomes a square, with someone in every corner. A fifth person is probably going to have to stand in the middle. New entrants to the lift will need to size up the situation when the doors slide open and then act decisively. Once in, for
36、most people the rule is simple look down, or look at your phone. Why are we so awkward in lifts? “You dont have enough space,” Professor Babette Renneberg, a clinical psychologist at the Free University of Berlin, told the BBC. “Usually when we meet other people we have about an arms length of dista
37、nce between us. And thats not possible in most elevators.” In such a small, enclosed space it becomes very important to act in a way that cannot be understood as threatening or odd. “The easiest way to do this is to avoid eye contact,” she said.39. According to Gray, when people enter an elevator, t
38、hey usually _. A. turn around and greet one another B. look around or examine their phone C. make eye contact with those in the elevator D. try to keep a distance from other people40. Which of the following describes how people usually stand when there are at least two people in an elevator? 41. Acc
39、ording to the article, people feel awkward in lifts because of _. A. someones odd behaviors B. a lack of space C. their unfamiliarity with one another D. their eye contact with one another42. Whats the passage mainly about _. A. Bad manners in the elevator B. Some unwritten rules of elevator etiquet
40、te C. An interesting but awkward elevator ride D. The strange behaviors in the elevator DBy far the most common difficulty in study is simple failure to get down to regular concentrated work. This difficulty is much greater for those who do not work to a plan and have no regular routine of study. Ma
41、ny students muddle along, doing a bit of this subject or that, as the mood takes them, or letting their set work pile up until the last possible moment.Few students work to a set timetable. They say that if they did work out a timetable for themselves they would not keep to it, or would have to chan
42、ge it frequently, since they can never predict from one day to the next what their activities will be.No doubt some students take much more kindly to a regular routine than others. There are many who shy away from a self-controlled weekly timetable, and dislike being tied down to a fixed program of
43、work. Many able students state that they work in cycles. When they become interested in a topic they work on it attentively for three or four days at a time. On other days they avoid work completely. It has to be admitted that we do not fully understand the motivation to work. Most people over 25 ye
44、ars of age have become used to a work routine, and the majority of really productive workers set aside regular hours for the more important areas of their work. The “tough-minded” school of workers doesnt fully accept the idea that good work can only be done naturally, under the influence of inspira
45、tion.Those who believe that they need only work and study as the fit takes them have a mistaken belief either in their own talent or in the value of “freedom”. Freedom from control and discipline leads to unhappiness rather than to “self-expression” or “personality development”. Our society insists on
