When the fork was stolen off Bart Michiels's mountain bike last summer, he wheeled it nearly three miles from his home in Chelsea to Frank's Bike Shop on the eastern end of Grand Street.
Mr Michiels passed many other bike shops along the way, including one that offers free coffee. But for 20 years, he has remained devoted (忠實(shí)的) to Frank's.“Frank's the man,” he said of Frank Arroyo, the owner.“I don't care where he is in the city—I'll go.”
Mr Michiels doesn't have to worry about Mr Arroyo's relocating (搬遷). The shop has stayed on the Lower East Side of Manhattan for 40 years.
After Mr Michiels left, Marvin Priess arrived. A professor of chemistry and math, Mr Priess wheeled in the Ross 18-speed he had bought at Frank's in 1978 and still rides today, at age 68. Mr Priess said that over the years, every single part of it that couldn't be repaired had been replaced, sometimes more than once, at Frank's. Customers don't come for the ambience (環(huán)境). It's crowded and dirty; buckets of parts and boxes of training wheels line the entryway.
The store is filled with about 500 bikes and you will find Mr Arroyo, 72, six days a week. He has been in the bike business since age 14. Born and raised on the Lower East Side, he has employed and taught many young people in the neighborhood. He is also willing to repair bikes in any condition, as well as his neighbors' walkers and wheelchairs.
English Epps, a lawyer, needed a new seat; his had been stolen.“I've been coming here since I was in the third grade,” he said, adding, “There's a new bike shop on Delancey Street, but everybody comes here.”

If you travel around the world, you will be surprised to find just how different the foreign customs can be from your own.
A visitor in India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man clearly shaking his head at another and assume that he doesn't agree. But in many parts of India a shake of the head is a gesture that shows agreement of acceptance. Nodding your head when offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty. In that country you shake your head to indicate “yes”—a nod indicates “no”. The Arabs are known for their hospitality (好客). At a meal in countries on the Arabian Peninsula, you will find that any drinking cup is repeatedly refilled as soon as you drink it up.
In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when sitting talking to someone, even at an important meeting. Doing this when meeting an important person in Thailand, however, could cause trouble. It is too informal an attitude for such an occasion. Also when in Thailand you are not supposed to touch the head of an adult. In Japan, it is quite usual for men to plan evening entertainments for themselves and leave their wives at home. In Europe such attitude is disappearing.
Customs vary from country to country. Visitors may be at a loss as to what to do in a foreign environment. In such circumstances, the golden rule to follow is: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
28. In which country shouldn't you pass food at table with your left hand?
A. Thailand.?? B. India.???? C. Malaysia.?? D. Bulgaria.
29. In which country does a person shake his head to say yes?
A. Bulgaria.?? B. Thailand.?? C. Japan.???? D. Romania.
30. What is impolite in Europe according to the text?
A. To touch the head of an adult.
B. To drink up the glass in your hand.
C. To cross legs while sitting talking to others.
D. To enjoy evening entertainments leaving the wife at home.
31. If you don't know the customs in the country you visit, the rule to follow is ___.
A. to do as the locals do?????? B. to turn to the guidebook
C. to ask about the customs????? D. to make friends with people there

A team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by nature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech systems. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.
“It's extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just a bunch of individual components (零件),” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade.“The added difficulty with such a project is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to make them all on our own,” he said.
They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly.“The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, and then has to be matched well to everything it's connected to,” said Wood. The flight device (設(shè)備) was built into a set of power, computation, sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.
Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications (應(yīng)用).“You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said.“So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day-to-day basis.”
32. What challenge did the engineers have when making the robotic fly?
A. The system is too complex to work.
B. They fail to control all the components.
C. They don't have enough related knowledge.
D. The ready-made components are in shortage.
33. What does the success of the robotic fly suggest?
A. It will help to kill dangerous insects.
B. The flight device needs a few components.
C. Scientists are able to make tiny flying machines.
D. Humans will seldom use animals in biological tests.
34. What does Wood hope to do with the flying robot?
A. To put it to the market.??? ??B. To solve more scientific problems.
C. To fix the system on other animals.? D. To encourage people to learn biology.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Father of Robotic Fly?????? B. Robotic Fly Imitates Real Life Insect
C. Inspiration from Engineering Science? D. Harvard Breaks Through in Insect Study

How can teenagers keep themselves from suffering from loneliness? Here are some suggestions for speeding a recovery from loneliness.
Reach out to others but start small. A smile and a friendly greeting for the student behind you in line at the cafeteria (餐廳) won't make you best friends.36 It also can make it easier to interact the next time.
Find a safe place to make connections. If going to the dancing party makes you feel like you just don't belong, try joining a special-interest group. Maybe it's the drama club or the marching band.37
Find other ways of making connections. Lonely people hunger for friendship. Sometimes feeling accepted and liked comes more easily when you do something for others rather than waiting for them to make you feel better.38 Help a child in reading. Take notes for a disabled classmate. You might be surprised at the connections you make.
39 Loneliness is an absence of quality friendship, not of a particular quantity of friends. That's why it's important to know how to select a friend.
You get what you expect, so expect the best. If you expect others to be friendly, you will behave in proper ways that encourage people to be friendlier to you.40 But starting the first step of positive expectations can make all the difference.
A. Choose the right people.
B. Loneliness won't last long.
C. So consider becoming a volunteer.
D. But it will make you both feel good.
E. It can be hard work to be positive toward others.
F. This harmful attitude can continue into adulthood.
G. Look for a group that allows you to feel comfortable.
