Its not magic it s magnets (磁). And its close to reality. In Virginia USA the fall of 2002, a train with no wheels traveled on air and carried college students across their campus. In Japan, a whisper-quiet railway engine hovered and raced at 350 miles per hour using magnets and electricity as the power. And in China, a magnet train line linked Shanghai with nearby Pudong Airport. These trains use magnetic levitation ( 悬浮) technology, “maglev” for short. They use the same rules as the magnets you pick up at home or school: opposite poles of magnets attract each other, and like poles repel each other. How does it work? Powerful magnets on the bottom of the train repel magnets on the track, which is actually just a magnet-filled guiding way. With a magnetic field of sufficient force, the train will go hovering on air, which seemed impossible to us in the past. When an electrical current is sent through the track, the train moves. Turn the current backwards and the train slows down. Maglev doesn t rely on the friction (摩擦力 ) of wheels on track, so it can climb a much steeper hill than a traditional train. And it can travel easily in snow and ice, something that could bring normal trains to a screaming stop. 1.

British men are encouraged to cry. There are certain things British men like to believe about themselves. The first is that one day they will again win the World Cup. They also believe they do not cry. Over the centuries, Britons are believed to have a “stiff upper lip”. But is this true? Yes, it is. A recent study arranged by Kleenex on how the British express their emotions reveals that 95 percent of them still contain their emotions. Moreover, while 72 percent think this is unhealthy, 19 percent cant remember the last time they “let it out”. As a result, Kleenex is launching the “Let It Out” campaign that encourages Britons to grab a tissue and have a good cry. These days, however, the male Brito ns attitude toward crying is changing. Though the majority still struggles to open up emotionally, a 2004 study by Oxfords Social Issues Research Center found that 77 percent of British men considered crying in public increasingly acceptable. Half of London males admitted crying in front of their mothers. Scotsmen are the least emotional, although they are the most likely to cry at weddings. Peter Marsh, director of the center, said: “Crying can now indicate sensitivity rather than weakness. Like with Da vid Beckham, crying because youre dropping off your boy at nursery isnt seen as weak.”Winston Churchill was said to be a frequent crier, shedding tears at seeing a survivor in an air raid shelter (防空洞), and when he saw his wife after a long absence. 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 4 页,共 13 页 - - - - - - - - - 精品文档收集于网络,如有侵权请联系管理员删除Psychologists say that while society has accepted that men can cry, there are limits. Ronald Bracey, a consulting psychologist, said: “If a man began to cry when he was having stitches ( 缝针)in hospital, he would be considered as a wimp( 软弱的人 ). Men still need to be seen as strong when it comes to physical pain.”1. What does the passage mainly deal with? A. Impression of British men. B. British mens dream of the World Cup. C. Advice on how to control emotions. D. Different attitudes British men have towards crying. 2. Which of the following concerning the British men is NOT true according to the passage? A.
