第1题
The driver looked at her but made no answer, so she repeated the question. To her surprise, he then closed the door, on her arm, and drove off.
The woman, her arm stuck in the door, ran alongside the bus, shouting. Passengers said the driver stopped after almost a block only because they, too were shouting.
When the driver finally did stop and open the door, the woman jumped on the bus to get his bus number. Then he took off again and went another couple of blocks before other shouting passengers persuaded him to stop and let the woman off.
After the driver' s bossed at a tax-support governmental company(CTA) heard of the incident, they looked into it and set his punishment: a five-day suspension (停职) without pay. That struck me as rather light.
But Bill Baxa, the company' s public-relation man, "That' s a pretty serious punishment.
Five days off work is a serious punishment for dragging a woman alongside a bus by her arm？ Baxa said, "Any time you take money away from someone, it is a terrible punishment. The driver make $14 an hour. Multiply(乘)that by 40 and you can see that he lost."
Yes, that come to $560, a good sum. But we know that people in the private company are fired for far less every day. If the people who run the bus company think that the loss of a week' s pay is more than enough, I offer them a sporting suggestion: Give me a bus. Then have their arms in the doorway of the bus, and I' 11 slam the door shut, shut the bus quickly and take them for a fast one block run.
And I'll pay $560 to anyone who is bold enough to try it. Any takers？ Mr Baxa？ Anyone？
I didn't think so.
The nurse half-entered one of the buses because ______.
A．the bus they wanted didn't stop
B．She wanted the driver to stop the bus
C．She wanted to get some information from the driver
D．She and her uncle couldn't wait any longer at the corner

ESP stands for Extra Sensory Perception. It may be called a sixth sense. It seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away.
Here is an example: A woman was doing washing. Suddenly she screamed. "My father is dead! I saw him sitting in the chair!' Just then, a telegram came. The woman's father had died of a heart attack. He died sitting in a chair.
There are thousands of stories like this on record. Scientists are studying them to find out what is behind these strange mental messages. Here's another example--one of hundreds of dreams that have come true.
A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and carriage came by. The driver said, "There's room for one more." The man felt the driver was Death, so he ran away. The next day the man was getting on a crowded bus. The bus driver said, "There's room for one more." Then the man saw the driver's face was the same face he had seen in the dream. He wouldn't get on the bus. As the bus drove off, it crashed and burst into flames. Everyone was killed!
Some people say stories like these are lies or coincidences. Others, including some scientists say that ESP is true. From studies of ESP, we may some day learn more about the human mind.
ESP lets people know about
A．their dreams
B．events after they happen
C．events before they happen
D．heart attacks
