I loved him beyond all reason. I joined a riding club and suffered rude comments and mean snickers abo

11、ut Cowboy’s looks. I never let on about how I felt, but deep inside, my heart was breaking. The other members rode beautiful, registered horses. When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse is judged on appearance, we were quickly shown the gate. No amount of preparation and love would tur

12、n Cowboy into a beauty. My only chance to compete would be in the speed events. I chose the jumping race. One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. Needless to say, she didn’t feel threatened when I competed against her at the next show. She

13、didn’t need to. I came in next to last. The stinging memory of Becky’s smirks made me determined to beat her. For the whole next month I woke up early every day and rode Cowboy five miles to the arena (賽馬場). We practiced running and jumping for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy hom

14、e totally exhausted. All of our hard work didn’t make me feel confident by the time the show came. I sat at the gate and sweated it out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the course and finish in first place. My turn finally came. I put on my hat, rubbed Cowboy’s neck and entered

15、 the arena. At the signal, we dashed toward the first fence, jumped it without trouble and raced on to the next one. Cowboy then flew over the second, third and fourth fences like a bird and I turned him toward the finish line. As we crossed the line the crowd was shocked into silence. Cowboy and

16、I had beaten Becky and her fancy horse by two seconds! I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that no matter what the odds, I’d always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it. 41. The underlined expression "shown the gate" (paragraph

20、for the story is . A. A Run to Remember B.A Horse’s Tale C. Neck and Neck D.A Difficult Age  B  Is the woman pictured on the right more attractive than the woman on the left? The photograph on the right was changed using a new "beauty making" computer program, which uses

21、 a mathematical formula involving 234 measurements of distances between facial features to get a theoretically more attractive version, while keeping the basic appearance of the face unchanged. Unlike changes done in fashion magazine photos, wrinkles were not smoothed and hair color was not changed

22、. The program is the latest attempt to combine beauty and science, a subject that has drawn increasing academic interest in the last decade. Studies have shown there is surprising agreement among people of different cultures about what makes a face attractive. Most important is symmetry (勻稱), al

23、ong with youthfulness, skin smoothness and vivid eyes and hair color. Yet, like the many other scientific or mathematical attempts to define beauty, this software program raises complex and difficult questions about the understanding of beauty. "How can they prove something is more or less beautif

24、ul?" said Lois Banner, a history professor at Chicago University, who studies changing beauty standards. "There can never be a single standard of beauty because so much of it is culturally influenced." After viewing "before" and "after" photographs of different people, Banner said the original fac

25、es were more attractive. "Irregular beauty is the real beauty," said Banner, adding that attempts to measure beauty are driven by the media’s efforts to define beauty and who is beautiful. Martina Eckstut, the woman whose photo was beautified for this article, said she was struck by how different

26、she looked. "I think the “after” picture looks great, but it doesn’t really look like me at all." She added, "I would like to keep my original face." For centuries people have tried to define a universal ideal of beauty. "The first reaction we have to faces will be based on face symmetry." said Al

27、exander Nehamas, a professor who has written about beauty. "But in real life we don’t just see a face. We see faces as people express their emotions and ideas, and all those aspects of the face are essential to our deciding whether a face or a person is beautiful." 46. How does the program work to

38、 also many types of fish that are good for you, but because of overfishing are in danger of being wiped out. Some are being fished in the wild so much that they cannot reproduce fast enough to survive. Others are being farmed in ways that are not environmentally friendly. These fish include red snap
