When we see well, we d nt think abut ur eyes very ften. It is nly when we cannt see perfectly that we realize hw imprtant ur eyes are.
Peple wh are near-sighted can nly see things that are very clse t their eyes. Everything else seems blurry. Many peple wh d a lt f wrk, such as writing, reading and sewing becme near-sighted.
Peple wh are far-sighted suffer frm just the ppsite prblem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a bk unless they hld it at arm’s length. If they want t d much reading , they must get glasses, t.
Other peple d nt see clearly because their eyes are nt exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, t, can be crrected by glasses. Sme peple’s eyes becme cludy because f cataracts (白内障). Lng ag these peple ften became blind. Nw, hwever, it is pssible t perate n the cataracts and remve them.
Having tw gd eyes is imprtant fr judging distances. Each eye sees things frm a slightly different angle (角度). T prve this t yurself, lk at an bject ut f ne eye; then lk at the same bject ut f yur ther eye. Yu will find the bject’s relatin t the backgrund and ther things arund it has changed. The difference between these tw different eye views helps us t judge hw far away an bject is. Peple wh have nly ne eye cannt judge distance as peple with tw eyes.

Almst everybdy in America will spend a part f his r her life behind a shpping cart(购物手推车). They will, in a lifetime, push the shpping carts many miles, but few will knw—r even think t ask—wh it was that invented them.
Sylvan N. Gldman invented the shpping cart in 1937. At that time, he was in the supermarket business. Every day he wuld see shppers lugging grceries arund in baskets they had t carry.
One day Gldman suddenly had the idea f putting baskets n wheels. T create the first shpping cart, Gldman used flding chairs. He put ne basket n the seat, and he raised the chair by putting wheels under the legs. The wheeled baskets wuld make shpping much easier fr his custmers, and wuld help t attract mre business.
On June 4, 1937, Gldman’s first carts were ready fr use in his market. He was terribly excited n the mrning f that day as custmers began arriving. He culdn’t wait t see them using his inventin. Hwever, Gldman was disappinted. Mst shppers gave the carts a lng lk, but hardly anybdy wuld give them a try. After a while, Gldman decided t ask custmers why they weren’t using his carts.
“Dn’t yu think this arm is strng enugh t carry a shpping basket?” ne shpper replied. Gldman wasn’t beaten yet. He knew his carts wuld be a great success if nly he culd persuade peple t give them a try. T this end, Gldman hired a grup f peple t push carts arund his market and pretend they were shpping! Seeing this, the real custmers gradually began cpying the phny custmers.
As Gldman had hped, the carts were sn attracting larger and larger numbers f custmers t his market. Nt nly did mre peple cme—thse wh came bught mre. With larger, easier-t-handle baskets, custmers uncnsciusly bught a greater number f items than befre.
Tday’s shpping carts are five times larger than Gldman’s riginal mdel. Perhaps that’s ne reasn Americans tday spend mre than five times as much mney n fd each year as they did befre 1937—befre the cming f the shpping cart.
38. Wh invented the shpping carts?
Sme shppers.B. A supermarket assistant.
C. The phny custmers. D. An American supermarket wner.
39. Why did Gldman hire peple t push carts arund his market?
Because he wanted t sell mre shpping carts.
Because he needed mre custmers t buy grceries.
Because he wanted peple t use the shpping carts.
Because he hped t help shppers carry their grceries.
40. The right rder f the fllwing is___________.
Many shppers began t use the shpping carts.
Gldman invented the shpping carts.
Gldman paid sme peple fr using the shpping carts.
Few shppers wuld like t use the shpping carts.
b-d-c-a B. b-a-d-c C. a-d-c-b D. a-b-d-c
What’s the best title f the passage?
Hw t Cheat CustmersB. Gldman and His Shpping Carts
C. Hw t Use the Shpping CartsD. The Purpse f Gldman’s Inventin
D
Recently the French gvernment passed a law in rder t change the face f France’s cities. The law states that the rfs(屋顶) f all new buildings in the dwntwn(闹市区) f cities must be cvered in part with either plants r slar panels(太阳能板).
S, why are these s-called rftp gardens useful? First f all, they will help cut the amunt f energy which is needed fr heating and cling the buildings in summer and winter.

When we see well, we d nt think abut ur eyes very ften. It is nly when we cannt see perfectly that we realize hw imprtant ur eyes are.
Peple wh are near-sighted can nly see things that are very clse t their eyes. Everything else seems blurry. Many peple wh d a lt f wrk, such as writing, reading and sewing becme near-sighted.
Peple wh are far-sighted suffer frm just the ppsite prblem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a bk unless they hld it at arm’s length. If they want t d much reading , they must get glasses, t.
Other peple d nt see clearly because their eyes are nt exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, t, can be crrected by glasses. Sme peple’s eyes becme cludy because f cataracts (白内障). Lng ag these peple ften became blind. Nw, hwever, it is pssible t perate n the cataracts and remve them.
Having tw gd eyes is imprtant fr judging distances. Each eye sees things frm a slightly different angle (角度). T prve this t yurself, lk at an bject ut f ne eye; then lk at the same bject ut f yur ther eye. Yu will find the bject’s relatin t the backgrund and ther things arund it has changed.

Almst everybdy in America will spend a part f his r her life behind a shpping cart(购物手推车). They will, in a lifetime, push the shpping carts many miles, but few will knw—r even think t ask—wh it was that invented them.
Sylvan N. Gldman invented the shpping cart in 1937. At that time, he was in the supermarket business. Every day he wuld see shppers lugging grceries arund in baskets they had t carry.
One day Gldman suddenly had the idea f putting baskets n wheels. T create the first shpping cart, Gldman used flding chairs. He put ne basket n the seat, and he raised the chair by putting wheels under the legs. The wheeled baskets wuld make shpping much easier fr his custmers, and wuld help t attract mre business.
On June 4, 1937, Gldman’s first carts were ready fr use in his market. He was terribly excited n the mrning f that day as custmers began arriving. He culdn’t wait t see them using his inventin. Hwever, Gldman was disappinted. Mst shppers gave the carts a lng lk, but hardly anybdy wuld give them a try. After a while, Gldman decided t ask custmers why they weren’t using his carts.
“Dn’t yu think this arm is strng enugh t carry a shpping basket?” ne shpper replied. Gldman wasn’t beaten yet. He knew his carts wuld be a great success if nly he culd persuade peple t give them a try. T this end, Gldman hired a grup f peple t push carts arund his market and pretend they were shpping! Seeing this, the real custmers gradually began cpying the phny custmers.
As Gldman had hped, the carts were sn attracting larger and larger numbers f custmers t his market. Nt nly did mre peple cme—thse wh came bught mre. With larger, easier-t-handle baskets, custmers uncnsciusly bught a greater number f items than befre.
Tday’s shpping carts are five times larger than Gldman’s riginal mdel. Perhaps that’s ne reasn Americans tday spend mre than five times as much mney n fd each year as they did befre 1937—befre the cming f the shpping cart.
38. Wh invented the shpping carts?
Sme shppers.B. A supermarket assistant.
C. The phny custmers. D. An American supermarket wner.
39. Why did Gldman hire peple t push carts arund his market?
Because he wanted t sell mre shpping carts.
Because he needed mre custmers t buy grceries.
Because he wanted peple t use the shpping carts.
Because he hped t help shppers carry their grceries.
40. The right rder f the fllwing is___________.
Many shppers began t use the shpping carts.
Gldman invented the shpping carts.
Gldman paid sme peple fr using the shpping carts.
Few shppers wuld like t use the shpping carts.
b-d-c-a B. b-a-d-c C. a-d-c-b D. a-b-d-c
What’s the best title f the passage?

C. Hw t Use the Shpping CartsD. The Purpse f Gldman’s Inventin
