The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average person, hanging by the fingertips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.
Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help, be sure to keep the door closed before opening the window. Otherwise, smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may have leaked (渗入)into the room.
On a second or a third floor, the best windows for escape are those which open on a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement(水泥地)might end in injury. Bushes and grass can help to break a fall.
Which of the following should not be used when trying to escape a fire?
A.windows.
B.elevators.
C.fire escapes.
D.stairways.
Janice Weinman of the American Association of University Woman says, "Girls tend to be less comfortable than boys with the computer. They use it more for word processing rather than for problem solving, rather than to discover new ways in which to understand information."
After re-examining a thousand studies, the American Association of University women researchers found that girls make up only a small percentage of students in computer science classes. Girls consistently rate themselves significantly lower than boys in their ability and confidence in using computers. And they use computers less often than boys outside the classroom.
The instructor of this computer lab says he's, already noticed some differences. Charles Cheadle of Cesar Chavez School says, "Boys are not so afraid they might do something that will harm the computer, whereas girls are afraid they might break it somehow."
Six years ago, the software company Purple Moon noticed that girls' computer usage was falling behind boys. Karen Gould says, "The number one reason girls told us they don't like computer games is not because they're too violent, or too competitive. Girls just said they're incredibly boring."
Purple Moon says it found what girls want, characters they can relate to and story lines relative to what's going on in their own lives. Karen Gould of Purple Moon Software says, "What we definitely found from girls is there is no intrinsic (内在的) reason why they wouldn't want to play on a computer; it was just a content thing."
The sponsor of the study says it all boils down to this, the technology gender gap that separates the girls from the boys must be closed if women are to compete effectively with men in the 21st century.

A.only boys are allowed to use the computers

Art Without Limit
Art should not be limited to a museum. " Art and creative elements (创造性元素) can be mixed into daily life." said Professor Cheng of the Fine Arts Department.
Public art can be seen as a realization of Professor Cheng' s words above. It is simply artwork presented in the public space, where one could walk by any day. Connie Yu, a businesswoman,
likes the idea of public art. "I like the idea of bringing afl to people, rather than people to art. " However, the idea of public art is not very well developed in Hong Kong. A walk through the central area only presents one with a limited number of public art pieces. Most of them seem to be more for the purpose of decoration (装饰) than presenting art to the public. Also, people do not pay much attention to them.
Alex Chan, a 34-year-old Hong Kong artist, said, "Public art is a great way to express your-self as an artist, to give something to people who don ' t normally go to the museums,and to give them a break from their daily life. It is just a shame that it' s not so common in Hong Kong. "
61. What is "public art" according to the text?
(A) Fine art pieces in museums.
(B) An exhibitions for the artists.
(C) Artwork by ordinary people.
(D) Art pieces in public places.
My worst experience of the week was going home for lunch, rather than eating at work. My children didn’t know I was coming, they had used most of the bread. All I had to make a sandwich with were two thin, crumpled pieces of crust. I sat there eating my tattered sandwich and trying to relax, then the telephone rang. It was for my daughter, who was in the bathroom, she called down to me that I should get the person’s name and number. As soon as I sat down again, someone knocked on the door, It was a neatly dressed couple with bright eyes who wanted to talk with me about a higher power in life. I politely got rid of them and went back to finish lunch. I thought I would relax over my coffee, I had to break up fight between my two young sons about which television channel to watch. As a last bit of frustration, my daughter came downstairs and asked me to drive her over to a friend’s house before I went back to work.

Gender Gap
The girls in this sixth grade class in East Palo Alto, California, all have the same access to computers as boys. But researchers say, by the time they get to high school, they are victims of what the researchers call a major new gender (性别) gap in technology. Janice Weinman of the American Association of University Women says, "Girls tend to be less comfortable than boys with the computer. They use it more for word processing rather than for problem solving, rather than to discover new ways in which to understand information."<br>
