The captain hadn’t even turned ff the “fasten yur seat belt” light and Matthew Bahani was already having a rugh time.
Matthew, a 9-year-ld with autism(自闭症), was grwing increasingly anxius even as his parents hugged and kissed him.
“He gets nervus and he can’t cntrl himself. He gets lud. He makes nise. It isn’t easy,” said his father, Sam Bahani, 48. “Yu can’t imagine what he ges thrugh. He can’t express himself.”
The Bahanis were amng the ten families wh participated in a prgram at Newark Liberty Internatinal Airprt intended t help familiarize autistic children with air travel — a cnfusing, cmplex prcess that, with lud nises, unifrmed screening agents and lines f passengers they dn’t knw, can be frightening t them.
The “Autism Explres” prgram — which takes participants thrugh all aspects f the flying experience withut leaving the grund — als helps parents, wh ften find themselves in the psitin f dealing with a difficult child, as well as with scare frm ther adults wh may have n idea f the child’s particular difficulty.
“When yu’re in a public situatin and that happens, peple are nt always kind,” said Matthew’s mther, Jennifer Bahani, 42, wh avids even the shpping mall with Matthew.
Each aspect f the prgram, frm check-in t baggage claim, related t the flying experience, except fr the actual flying. While the pilt and ther flight crew made the usual annuncements abut flying cnditins r the weather n the grund, the plane never actually pulled back frm the gate.
“It’s a beautiful day fr flying. Sit back and enjy the flight,” annunced the pilt, Geff Bender, whse 13-year-ld daughter, Teresa, is als autistic.
“Nrmalizing activities like flying fr children with autism is imprtant in making sure they will lead as full and independent a life as pssible,” he said.
4. Hw did Matthew feel n the plane?

5. What was the main purpse f the prgram fr children with autism?

At Sh Farm in nrthern Vermnt, farmers Melissa Hffman and Shawn Smith wrk hand in hand with the land and its inhabitants, and amng them are hundreds f ducks. The ducks at Sh Farm are nt being raised t be killed fr fd. Rather, they are naturally invlved in farming peratins, helping t manage pests and add fertilizer (肥料) t the sil.
In the beginning, Hffman, wh has a backgrund in rganic farming and eclgy actin, wrked with eclgists and bilgists t survey the plants and wildlife all arund the area. This was “t understand wh was living here, s that everything we did was in relatinship t the life already here,” he says.
S, at Sh Farm, fcus is placed n living harmniusly alngside ther life and wrking with traditinal eclgical knwledge. Fd is seen nt as a cmmdity (商品) but as a relatinship with land and life.
The methds f fd prductin at Sh Farm, as well as the farmers’ philsphy f wrking with rather than against nature, are in sharp cntrast t mst mdern agricultural systems. And that’s the pint. “We’ve been talking a lt abut the brken fd system and the cnsequences f it t the envirnment, t wildlife, t the animals in animal agriculture and t human health,” says Hffman, adding that it’s nt just the fd system that’s brken. “It’s the relatinship between humans, nn-human animals, land and nature.”
The ducks play a vital, integrated rle n the farm, explains Hffman, by naturally prviding pest cntrl, fertilizer and (fuel-free) land maintenance (维护), just as by-prducts f their existence. “We nticed where we summered grups f ducks and parts f the fd system that were nt ding very well. The fllwing year, the fd system was efficiently imprved,” he says.
It’s a symbitic relatinship that wrks well. “Animals dn’t have t be part f a farm in a cmmdity sense. They can be part f the farm as a partner,” Hffman says. “They are wnderful partners.”
8. Why did Hffman d a survey in the beginning?
A. T get familiar with the surrundings.
B. T have a gd relatinship with ther peple.
C. T live in harmny with ther life n the farm.
D. T have a gd understanding f rganic farming.
9. What des the authr intend t explain in paragraph 4?
A. The causes f the brken fd system.
B. The reasns fr Hffman’s farming methds.
C. The changes in mdern agricultural systems.
D. The prcess f fd prductin at Sh Farm.
10. What des “a symbitic relatinship” in the last paragraph imply?
A. Animals are treated well at Sh Farm.
B Animals are nt t be sld fr mney.
C. Peple and animals play the same rle in rganic farming.
D. Peple and animals wrk tgether and benefit each ther.
11. Which f the fllwing best describes the farming at Sh Farm?
A. Efficient.B. Mdern.C. Natural.D. Ecnmical.
D
Scial scientists have lng understd that when peple are smart and skilled, they’re likely t gain trust. T appear mre capable — and therefre mre trustwrthy — many peple tend t bast (吹嘘), accrding t anther lngstanding thery that researchers call impressin management. But a new paper suggests that the cmmn methd peple use t gain trust culd have the ppsite effect.
“If yu cnsider yurself a highly capable individual, have a gd educatin, are successful in life, then dn’t talk t prudly abut it when presenting yurself t thers r managing impressins abut what yu can d,” said Martin Reimann, the paper’s lead authr. “It can backfire, and peple might becme distrusting.”
“Since impressin management is s widespread, we wndered hw it impacts the well-knwn effect f ability n trust,” Reimann said.
T answer the questin, the researchers designed seven nline experiments cncerning participants’ trust. In ne experiment, fr example, participants shpped fr a TV in an nline marketplace, similar t Amazn, with third-party vendrs (销售商). Custmer reviews with star ratings tld participants hw capable r cmpetent vendrs were, and each vendr’s ad either did r did nt include a bastful statement f self-prmtin.
Designing seven studies, Reimann said, allwed the researchers t reach mre peple and explre a range f variables that might affect smene’s willingness t trust. There were mre than 106,000 participants acrss all seven studies.
The experiments shwed that participants were mre likely unsurprisingly, t trust peple r cmpanies that appeared mre capable. But every study als shwed that highly capable peple r cmpanies were viewed as less trustwrthy if they als bastfully prmted themselves.
“We see trust as a central cncept that hlds tgether sciety,” Reimann added. “If we dn’t trust each ther, then a lt f prcesses culd cme t a standstill. It’s imprtant t understand what it is in the first place that leads peple t trust each ther, and hw we can encurage that at different levels f sciety. That’s what we want t further uncver.”
12. Accrding t the text, what d many peple d by impressin management?
A. Make themselves seem mre imprtant.B. Remind thers that basting will lse trust.
C. Shw what their impressin f smene is.D. Prve that they have becme mre capable.
13. Which f the fllwing in the experiment was cnnected with basting?
A. A TV.B. Participants.C. Vendrs.D. Custmer reviews.
14. What will the researchers’ future study fcus n?
A. The bad effects f basting.B. Peple’s views n basting.
C. Prmtin f trust amng peple.D. Different levels f trust in sciety.
15. What is the main idea f the text?
A. Peple need t be able t trust each ther.B. Basting culd make peple trust yu less.
C Peple’s trust depends n hw hnest yu are.D. Being gd at yur jb helps yu t gain trust.
