6、stare, and nervousness may be misread as hostility. People who dont look one in the eye are mistrusted when, in fact, they simply lack confidence.Some relationships thrive(兴旺)on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, to have attitudes and intere
7、sts in common- they often talk about“ being on the same wavelength“. It generally takes time to reach this point; sometimes people become friends immediately.

12、:1,分数:10.00)Much unfriendly feeling towards computers has been based on the fear of widespread unemployment resulting from their introduction.Computers are often used as part of automated (自动化的) production systems requiring a least possible number of operators, causing the loss of many jobs. This ha
13、s happened, for example, in many steelworks.On the other hand, computers do create jobs. They are more skilled and better paid, though fewer in number than those they replace. Many activities could not continue in their present form without computers, no matter how many people are employed. Examples
14、 are the check clearing (交换) system of major banks and the weather forecasting system.When a firm introduces computers, a few people are usually employed in key posts (such as jobs of operations managers) while other staff are re-trained as operators, programmers, and data preparation staff. After t
15、he new system has settled down, people in non-computer jobs are not always replaced when they leave, resulting in a decrease in the number of employees. This decrease is sometimes balanced by a substantial increase in the activity of the firm, resulting from the introduction of computers.The attitud
16、es of workers towards computers vary. There is fear of widespread unemployment and of the takeover of many jobs by computer-trained workers, making promotion for older workers not skilled in computers more difficult.On the other hand, many workers regard the trend toward wider use of computers inevi
17、table. They realize that computers bring about greater efficiency and productivity, which will improve the condition of the whole economy, and lead to the creation of more jobs. This view was supported by the former British Prime Minister, James Callaghan in 1979, when he made the point that new tec
18、hnologies hold the key to increased productivity, which will benefit the economy in the long run.(分数:10.00)(1).The unfriendly feeling towards computers is developed from_.Athe possible widespread unemployment caused by their introductionBtheir use as part of automated production systemsCthe least po

It appears probable, however, that sunlight will be the color we know fo
23、r only a negligibly (微不足道) small part of the Suns history.Stars, like individuals, age and change. As we look out into space, we see around us stars at all stages of evolution.There are faint blooded dwarfs so cool that their surface temperature is a mere 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit; there are scaring
24、ghosts blazing at 100,000 degrees Fahrenheit and almost too hot to be seen, for the great part of their radiation is in the invisible ultraviolet range. Obviously, the “daylight“ produced by any star depends on its temperature; today (and for ages to come) our Sun is at about 10,000 degrees Fahrenhe
25、it, and this means that most of the Suns light is concentrated in the yellow band of the spectrum, falling slowly in intensity toward both the longer and shorter light waves.That yellow “hump“ will shift as the Sun evolves,and the light of the day will change accordingly. It is natural to assume tha
