Adults are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practised in the meantime．A man who has not had an opportunity to go swimming for years can 11 swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water．He can get on a bicycle after several decades and still 12 away．A mother who has not 13 the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins“Twinkle，twinkle，little star” or recite the story of Cinderella or Snow White．

One explanation is the law of over learning，which can be stated as follows： 14 we have 1earned something，additional learning increases the 15 of time we will remember it．In childhood，we usually continue to practise such skills as swimming, bicycle riding long after we have learned them．We continue to listen to and 16 ourselves of poems such as“Twinkle，twinkle，little star and childhood tales such as Cinderella or Snow White．We not only learn but 17 ．

The law of over learning explains why cramming(突击学习)for all examination， 18 it may result in a passing grade，is not a 19 way to learn a school course.By cramming，a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination，but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned．A little over learning； 20 ，is usually a good investment toward the future．

If you’re going to do something，my dad used to say，do it right．

Mostly he said that after my half-hearted(不尽力的) 2l to weed the vegetable garden．For some reason，he knew that there were white roots still 22 deep in the ground without looking around the garden．So I would be in the 23 again the next day with a spade dig deep and 24 the roots of our garden．As I tried to focus my attention on 25 ，Dad’s words kept echoing in my mind：“Do it right．”

I saw a perfect example ofwhat Dad was mlldng about last week when one ofthe teams,in the company was 26 ．All of us were sad to see them go．They were good friends and 27 ，and we worried about them．And 28 ，at such times you always wonder：am I next?

But as we watched them during the week they were given to 29 ， many of us noticed that they weren't handling this in quite the way we expected them to． 30 none of them found another job，there was also no bitterness or 31 in their departure．I didn’t hear a negative word．I didn’t see any 32 or unhappy flaces-at least，not from them．Instead，I saw grace．

“It’s 33 ，”one of my colleagues whispered．“1 went over there to offer comfort and support to them，and they 34 comforting me．”

Ancient Greeks believed that swans save their sweetest song for the moments to their 35 ．I don't know if my departing friends 36 their ending as a“swan song”or not，but the calm，quiet dignity with which they embraced their cruel reality touched and 37 us．

Lee，a man who has seen and 38 lots of lay-offs during almost 40 up-and-down，on-again-off-again years with the company， 39 nicely for all of us．

“Now．that’s doing it right，”he said．

Somewhere，I just know Dad was smiling his 40 ．

Money is the root of all evil and new study claims there may be some truth behind the saying．Scientists at the University of California．Berkeley, US，announced on February 27 that rich people are more likely to do unethical (不道德的)things．such as lie or cheat，than poorer people．

The scientists did a series of eight experiments．They published their findings online in the Proceedings of the NationalAcademyofSciences(PNAS，《美国国家科学院院刊》)．

They carried out the first two experiments from the sidewalk near Berkeley．They noted that drivers of newer and more expensive cars were more likely to cut off other cars and pedestrians at crosswalks．Nearly 45 percent of people driving expensive cars ignored a peaestrian compared with only 30 percent of people driving more modest (不豪华的)cars．

In another experiment，a group of college students was asked if they would do unethical things in various everyday situations．Examples included taking printer paper from work and not telling a salesperson when he or she gave back more change．Students from higher-class families were more likely to act dishonestly．

According to the scientists，rich people often think money call get them out of trouble．This makes them less afraid to take risks．It also means they care less about other people’s feelings．

Finally，it simply makes them greedier．“Higher wealth status seems to make you want even more，and that increased want leads you to bend the rules or break the rules to serve your self-interest，’’said Paul Piif,lead scientist of the study．

Piff pointed out that the findings don’t mean that all rich people are untrustworthy(不能信赖的)or all poor people honest．He said the experiments were to show how people living in different social situations express their instincts and values in different ways．

42．Which of the following is TRUE about the experiments the scientists did，according to the scientist quoted?

A．Most wealthy people are not trustworthy．

B．The findings were not persuasive enough and the scientists will do further experiments．

C．Drivers of more expensive cars are more likely to break traffic rules．

D．Students from poorer families are not as honest as studentsfrom richerfamilies．

43．What makes rich people unethical according to the scientists7．

a．they become more selfish b．they have more desires

c．they’believe money talks d．they welcome risks

A．ab B．abd C．bc D．abc

44．Why did the scientists do the experiments?

A．To show how social status affects people's ethics．

B．To show people’s instincts and values in different ways．

C. To test whether the saying“money is the root of all evil”
