Number sense is not the
ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a
1
in
number.
Human beings are born with this
ability.
2
,
experiments show that many animals are, too.
For example, many birds have good
number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you
remove one,
the bird will not
3
.However, if
you remove two, the bird
4
leaves. This means
that the bird knows the
5
between two and
three.
Another interesting experiment
showed a bird's
6
number sense. A man was
trying
to take a photo of a
crow
（乌鸦）
that had a nest in a
tower, but the crow always left when she saw
him coming. The bird did not
7
until the man left the tower. The man
had an
8
.He took another man with him to the
tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they
did not
9
the bird. The crow stayed
away until the second man left, too. The
experiment
was
10
with three men and then
with four men. But the crow did not return to the
nest
until all the men were
11
.It was not until five men
went into the tower and only four left
that they were
12
able to fool the crow.
How good is a human's number sense?
It's not very good. For example, babies about
fourteen months old almost always
notice if something is taken away from a
13
group.
But when the number
goes beyond three or four, the children are
14
fooled.
It seems that number
sense is something we have in common with many
animals in this
world, and that our
human
15
is not much better than a crow's.

Directions:
Complete the following passage by filling in each
blank with one word that best
fits the
context.
When kids in parts of the
world want to play, they often make soccer balls
out of trash tied
together with string.
“

the areas used
for playing fields are often rough and rocky,
millions of real balls go flat
(

”
says
Tim Jahnigen, a California
businessman.
Determined to solve this problem,
50
created an indestructible
ball called
the One World Futbol.
The ball is made of
51
special material,
ethylene-
vinyl acetate foam
.
It
’
s lightweight,
it

s flexible,
and
—

—

The One World Futbol

won

t wear out,
even on rough surfaces.
When tested,
54
withstood
(
经受住
) being crushed by a
car, and even being chewed on by
a
lion.
Although it costs more to produce
55
a typical soccer ball,
Jahnigen estimates the One
World Futbol
can last 30 years. So far,
it

s been given to kids in
143 countries.

It is easy to overlook the role that
your body plays in influencing your
mood(
情绪
). When
you are
49
, you may find yourself
blaming work pressures or an unknown future.
However, it
could just
be
that you’ve been sitting behind your desk too
lo
ng.
One way to improve
your mood is
50
. Psychologically, it provides you with
a break from
the stresses in your life.
Also, in the process, you may aim for
51
goals, like a
new personal
running record or a better
body shape. The achievement of a particular goal
makes you feel good
and contributes to
your
52
. That is why exercise has been shown
to
53
your self-respect.
You do
not have to train yourself
54
to feel the
psychological benefits of exercise. What
really matters is
55
, not
intensity(
强度
) of your
exercise. You can try walking for 30 minutes
five times per week or simply gardening
on weekends.

1)
一个个人跑步记录
2)
更好

Body
language is the quiet, secret and most powerful
language of all! It speaks
36
than words.
According to specialists, our bodies
send out more
37
than we realize. In fact, non-verbal
communication(
非言语交际
) takes up about 50% of what we really
38
,
And body language
is particularly
39
when we attempt to communicate across
cultures
（文化）
. Indeed, what
is
called
body
language
is
so
40
a
part
of
us
that
it's
actually
often
unnoticed.
And
misunderstandings
occur
as
a
result
of
it.
41
,
different
societies
treat
the
42
between people differently. Northern
Europeans usually do not like having
43
contact(
接触
)
even
with
friends,
certainly
not
with
44
.
People
from
Latin
American
countries
，
45
,
touch each other quite a lot.
Therefore, it's possible that in
46
，
it may look like a Latino is
47
a
Norwegian
all
over
the room.
The Latino,
trying
to
express
friendship, will keep moving
48
.
The
Norwegian,
very
probably
seeing
this
as
pushiness,
will
keep
49
-
which
the
Latino
will in return regard as
50
_.
Clearly,
a
great
deal
is
going
on
when
people
51
.
And
only
a
part
of
it
is
in
the
words
themselves.
And
when
parties
are
from
52
cultures,
there's
a
strong
possibility
of
53
.
But whatever the situation, the best
54
is to obey the Golden Rule: treat
others as you would
like to be
55 _.
