Believe it or not, proper nervousness___________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________
请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读短文内容在文章后图表中的空格里填入最恰当的词:
There are many stereotypes about the character of people in various parts of the United States. In the Northeast and Midwest, people are said to be closed and private. In the South and West, however, they are often thought of as being more open and hospitable (好客). Ask someone from St. Louis where the nearest sandwich shop is, and he or she will be polite to give you directions.
A New Yorker might eye you at first and after deciding it is safe to talk to you, might give you a rather unexpected explanation. A person from Georgia might be very kind about directing you and even suggest some different places to eat. A Texan just might take you to the place and treat you to lunch.
American stereotypes are abundant. New Englanders are often thought of as being friendly and helpful. Southerners are known for their hospitable and warmhearted character. People from the western part of the United States are often considered very outgoing.
These differences in character can be traced to different factors such as climate, living conditions, and historical development.
When traveling from place to place, Americans themselves are often surprised at the differing degrees of friendliness in the United States.
No one likes the idea of being watched but, in today's high-tech society, a video camera can keep its eye on you 24 hours a day. This is now even the case in schools, and the students are not particularly happy about it.
“Luckily for me, the video cameras in our school are only installed along the corridors(走廊),” said Zhu Jiangyue, a Senior 2 student in Beijing. “It would feel like you're always being stared at if there were a camera in the classroom. You would have no privacy.”
Two students in Shanghai learned this the hard way when their high school broadcast video pictures of them kissing on campus. They must have been annoyed by this and responded by filing lawsuit against the school for invasion of privacy and last month a local court agreed to hear it. It is the first case of its kind in China, and everyone has something to say about it.
Li Xiang, a Senior 3 student in Hunan Province, thinks the schools behavior was unacceptable and unreasonable. "If I were one of the victims, I would be as angry as they are," said the 18-year-old. Every classroom in Li's school has a video camera above the door. They are generally used only when an exam is taking place but sometimes a student is allowed to control the camera. In this way, students needn’t worry about being watched in most part of their school life and can enjoy the benefits cameras bring as long as it doesn’t damage their self-respect.
However, Peng Jianping, chairman of the Moral Education Research Centre in Guangzhou, thinks video monitoring causes more harm than good. “Schools hope to manage the students better with the help of video cameras,” he said. “But it won't actually work. Teachers and students should trust and respect each other. If video cameras are frequently used, teenagers will think their teachers don't believe them.”
1.According to the passage, which of the statements is true?
A. There are video cameras in every classroom in Beijing.
B. Peng Jianping doesn’t agree to manage students better.
C. Li Xiang thinks his school uses the video cameras in the correct way.
D. Two students in Shanghai in this case didn't say anything about it.
2.What does most school leaders want to use video cameras for?
A. To monitor the campus for safety.
B. To take pictures of students who are studying.
C. To monitor the students in the exams.
D. To manage the students better.
3.What's the writer's opinion on the use of video cameras on the campus?
A. He quite agrees. B. He doesn't agree.
C. We don't know. D. He neither agrees nor disagrees.
4.What's the best title for the passage?
A. Manage the students better with video cameras.
B. Video cameras on the campus.
C. Why video cameras used on the campus.
D. Better use of video cameras.
Sometimes, something that is considered to be negative turns out to be an advantage on the job. Though he is only l8 years old and blind, Suleyman Gokyigit is among the top computer technicians and programmers at InteliData Technologies Corp., a large software company with several offices across the United States.
"After our company united with another one last October, two different computer networks were driving us crazy," recalls Douglas Braun, the InteliData president. "We couldn't even send e-mail to each other.” In three weeks Mr. Gokyigit created the software needed to connect the two networks. "None of the company's 350 other employees could have done the job in three months," says Mr. Braun. " Suleyman can 'see' into the heart of the computer.”
Mr. Gokyigfi's gift, as Mr. Braun calls it, is an unusual ability to form an idea of the inside of a machine. "The computer permits me to reach out into the world and do almost anything I want to do," says Mr. Gokyigit
The young programmer is at home with hardware as well, thanks partly to a highly developed sense of touch. Mitzi Nowakowski, an office manager at InteliData, remembers how he easily disconnected and reconnected their computer systems during a move last year. "Through feel, Suleyman can find the position of connectors, pins and wires much faster than most other people with sight," he says.
Much of the student programmer's speed comes from his ability not to be interrupted while at the computer. When typing, he listens carefully to the synthesizer (合成器). His long, thin fingers fly over the keyboard. "Nothing seems to shake his attention," says Mrs. Nowakowski, his boss.
Mr. Gokyigit is the only company employee who is available 24 hours a day. "We consider him our top problem solver." says Mr. Braun.
