The idea of being able to walk on water has long interested humans greatly Sadly biologicalfacts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aidwe simply weigh too muchand all our mm pushes down through our relatively small feet resulting in a lot zxxkof pressure thatmakes us sink
However several types of animals can walk on water One of the most interesting is thecommon basilisk Basilicusbasilicus a lizard (蜥蜴) native to Central and South America It canrun across water for a distance of several meters avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water＇ssurface with its feet The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forwardFor humans to do this we＇d need huge feet that we
could bring up to our ears in order to create
adequate hitting
But fortunately there is an alternative cornflour By adding enough of this common thickeningagent to water (and it does take a lot) you can create a nonNewtonian liquid that doesn＇t behavelike normal water Now if the surface of the water is hit hard enough particles(微粒) in the watergroup together for a moment to make the surface hard Move quickly enough and put enough force intoeach step and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick liquid of cornflour
Fun though all this may sound it＇s still rather messy md better mad about in theory than carriedout in practice if you must do it then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sinkand takea shower afterward

I looked quickly mound the shadows of the forest Rays of sunlight shone through tree branchesbeneath which the patchwork (交错) of green plants and shadowwithinshadows would make tigerstripes (条纹) look more attractive Apart from an occasional noise from the elephant＇s stomach theforest wins silent
Gradually the tension slipped from our bodies The elephant seized a nearby branch and put itinto her mouth I roached forward and gently moved my hand over the elephant＇s neck there was asoft part free of wrinkles and hai
rs behind her ear
This was my fourth time to sense the aura of the forest in Corbett although I saw no tigers in theend Located at the foot of the Himalayan mountains Corbett is home to about 135 Bengal tigers butthe forest seemed to be guarding their whereabouts( 出没处) a silent reminder of their secrecy andrarity Still I was happy enough touching the elephant behind the ear If I had so desperately wantedto see a tiger I could have gone to a zoo After all spotting tigers mealy confirms their beautybacking them can make you aware of something more

It＇s generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudesThey recycle their garbage because they care about the environment They pay 5 for a caramelbrulée latte because they like expensive coffee drinks
It＇s undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions (性情) but in many instanceswe also draw inferences about who we are as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bern Byobserving our own behavior We can be strangers to ourselves If we knew our own minds why wouldwe need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior If our minds were an open book wewould know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes Actually we often need tolook to our behavior to figure out who we are
Moreover we don＇t just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character—weinfer characters that weren＇t there before Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around uswhich we fail to recognize Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if wedidn＇t Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us We should not mistakenlybelieve that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition
Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one zxxkcan make people become what they do
though it may not be in compliance (符合) with their true desires Therefore we should all bear inmind Kurt Vonnegut＇s advice We are what we pretend to be so we must be careful about what wepretend to be
52 According to the passage personalities and attitudes are commonly believed to __
A determine one＇s behavior
B reflect one＇s taste
C influence one＇s surroundings
D result from one＇s habits
53 Which of the following would Daryl Bern most probably agree with
A The return of a wallet can indicate one＇s honesty
B A kind person will offer his seat to the old
C One recycles plastics to protect the environment
D One buys latte out of true love of coffee
54 What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the passage
A We fall to realize our inner dispositions
B We can be influenced by outside pressures
C Our behavior is the result of our true desires
D Our characters can shape our social zxxkrelationships
55 What does the author mainly discuss in the passage
A Personalities and attitudes
B Preferences and habits
C Behavior and personalities
D Attitudes and preferences

It＇s generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudesThey recycle their garbage because they care about the environment They pay 5 for a caramelbrulée latte because they like expensive coffee drinks

Moreover we don＇t just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character—weinfer characters that weren＇t there before Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around uswhich we fail to recognize Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if wedidn＇t Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us We should not mistakenlybelieve that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition
Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one zxxkcan make people become what they do
