17、ou will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are. Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business
18、to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety. The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have thei
19、r meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge. The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their o
20、wn as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly. With so many loopholes(漏洞 ) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is
21、, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in
22、everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”. In a society of such high moral practice, what need is there for people to be on guard against others 【小题 1】 While taking a taxi in Finland, a passenger _. A can go anywhere without having to pay the driver B o

A both hotel guests and outside diners are served food free o
24、f charge B big hotels provide meals for all kinds of diners C guests can enjoy free food once they stayed in the hotel D big hotels are mostly poorly managed 【小题 3】 Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage A Generally speaking, in Finland, workers can get more pay by working long

D The bosses are too busy to check the working hours of their employees. 【小题 4】 It can be concluded that _. A Finnish people are really foolish in daily li

29、ve a change. He was working at Nintendo Corporation. His salary was higher than my current one, though I have more education and have worked for over a decade. With my programming skills, he said he could get me hired. I thanked him, but declined his kind offer. A few days before this current gradua
30、tion, while working on final grades, I found a note a student had slipped in with her homework. She thanked me for being her teacher and said the things she had learned in my class not about math, but about life would be things she would remember long after the math skills had faded away. As I finis
31、hed reading, I remembered why I had become a teacher. Now, on this sunny graduation day, as I again observed the sea of blue hats and gowns, I did so with renewed dedication (奉献 ) and a deeper sense of satisfaction I will always be grateful that I am a teacher. 【小题 1】 Hearing his colleagues descript

Manfred Milin
44、ski from the Max-Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology in Germany and Bettina Rockenbach of the University of Berlin, the authors of a new study, found that people act better when they are being watched because they feel they will be rewarded for good behaviour. Their report also referred to oth
45、er research showing that this response of behaving well when watched is somehow coded into humans and people respond this way unconsciously, or without realizing it. It is not just humans that act unselfishly when they are being watched. A fish called the grooming fish cleans other fish. When other
46、fish are around, it is gentler. When no other fish are around, however, the grooming fish bites chunks from the fish it is supposed to be cleaning.
