单选题 Mr. Right hated to be wrong. If he made a mistake,
he would never admit (承认) it. One day, he was walking along the
street when he met another man. He looked at the man very carefully. Then he
said, "John Foster! Well, well, well, I haven't seen you for ten
years." He looked at the man up and down. "But you look well
and it's good to see you again." He held the man's hand and said, "But, oh, you
have changed so much. You had thick hair ten years ago and now it's thin. You
didn't wear glasses before, but now you are wearing re- ally a pair of thick
ones." He smiled at the man again. "But you're
still the same John Foster. Do you remember that we often drank tea together? We
had some good times, didn't we, John?" "Excuse me, sir," the
man said, "but my name isn't John Foster.' Mr. Right thought
for a minute, then he said, "So you've changed your name, haven't you ?"

单选题Most banks in the U. S. open at 9:00 or 10:00 and close between 3:00 and 5:00, but stay open later on Fridays. Some banks have longer hours in order to attract customers.
What"s the best way to carry money safely while you are traveling? There are three
possibilities -- personal checks from your country, traveler"s checks and credit cards. Some American banks accept foreign checks such as Euro-checks; the problem is that only those banks that are used to dealing with foreigners will know what Euro-checks are.
It may be more convenient to carry traveler"s checks, which are insured against loss. They should be in dollars, because only a few banks do much business in foreign currencies. If your checks are not in dollars, it may take you a long time to find a bank that will exchange them. You can use traveler"s checks almost anywhere -- in restaurants, stores or ticket offices — without having to go to a bank. If you run out of them, you can buy more at most banks. Their service charge will vary, though, so ask what it is before you buy your checks.
Americans would say the best way to carry money is to have a major credit card like Visa, MasterCard or American Express. Credit cards can be canceled if they are lost or stolen. And because they are widely accepted in the U. S. , it is easy to use them to pay for lodging, transportation, meals and things you want to buy from larger stores.
Of course, you cannot get along without cash, but you don"t need to carry much with you.

单选题The human brain contains 10 thousand million cells and each of these may have a thousand connections. Such enormous numbers used to discourage us and cause us to dismiss the possibility of making a machine with human-like ability, but now that we have grown used to moving forward at such a pace we can be less sure. Quite soon, in only 10 or 20 years, perhaps, we will be able to assemble a machine as completes as the human brain, and if we can we will. It may then take us a long time to render it intelligent by loading in the right software (软件) or by altering the architecture but that to will happen. I think it certain that in decades, not centuries, machines of silicon (硅) will arise first to rival and then exceed their human ancestors. Once they exceed us they will be capable of their own design. In a real sense they will be able to reproduce themselves. Silicon will have ended carbon's long control. And we will no longer be able to claim ourselves to be the finest intelligence in the known universe. As the intelligence of robots increases to match that of humans and as their cost declines through economies of scale we may use them to expand our frontiers, first on earth through their ability to withstand environments, harmful to ourselves. Thus, deserts may bloom and the ocean beds be mined. Further ahead, by a combination of the great wealth this new age will bring and the technology it will provide, the construction of a vast, man-created world in space, home to thousands or millions of people, will be within over power.

"Daddy, how much do you make an hour?" "If you must know, I make twenty dollars an hour." "Oh," the little boy replied, with his head down.
