I began to remove items from the bags, when another shopper handed me a $20 bill. “Please dont put yourself out,” I told him.“Let me tell you a story,” he said. “My mother is in hospital with cancer. I visit her every day and bring her flowers. I went this morning, and she got mad at me for spending my money on more flowers. She demanded that I do something else with that money. So, here, please accept this. It is my mothers flowers.”A Familys Food AngelSince my mother lost her job, our family troubled new worries: no income, the same bills, and no way to afford groceries. It was around this time that she started finding boxes of food outside our door every morning. This went on for months, until she was able to land a job. We never did find out who it was and who left the groceries for us, but they truly saved our lives.Seven Miles For MeLeaving a store, I returned to my car only to find that Id locked my keys and cell phone inside.

I offered him some money, but he refused.“Lets just say I needed the exercise,” he said. Then, like a cowboy in the movies, he rode off into the sunset.Breaking BreadLast December, before work, I stopped at a deli (熟食店) and ordered an everything bagel with cream cheese.

In their study published on Thursday, Ishiyama and his adviser MichaelBrecht found that rats squeaked and jumped with pleasure when tickled on their backs and bellies. These signs of joychanged according to their moods. And for the first time, they discovered a special group of nerve cells. These nerve cells made this feeling so powerful that it causes an individual being tickled to lose control.To make sure that he had indeed found a place in the brain where tickling was processed, Ishiyama then stimulated(刺激) that area with electrical currents. The rats began to jump like rabbits and sing like birds.“Its truly ground-breaking,” said Jeffrey Burgdorf, a neuroscientist at Northwestern University who reviewed thepaper. “It takes the study of emotion to a new level.”Burgdorf has played a central role in our understanding of animal tickling. He was part of a team that first noticed,in the late 1990s, that rats made special noises when they were experiencing social pleasure. Others had already noted that rats repeatedly made short and high sounds during meals. But the lab where Burgdorf worked noticed that they emitted similar sounds while playing. And so one day, the senior scientist in the lab said, “Lets go and tickle some rats.” They quickly found that those cries of pleasure doubled.“The authors have been very adventurous,” said Daniel OConnor, a neuroscientist at Johns Hopkins Univ sity who studies touch. To him, that finding was very surprising.“Why does the world literally feel different when you are stressed out?” he said. “This is the first step towards answering that question. It gives us a way to approach it with experimental rigor(严谨).”1、 What contributed to humans being ticklish according to Aristotle?A Their special skin. B Their social pleasure.C Their nervous system. D Their willingness to touch.2、 Why did the researchers make use of electrical currents?A To discover the special group of nerve cells.B To experiment on different animals.C To follow the process of tickling.D To prove their finding.3、 Which of the following statements will Jeffrey Burgdorf agree with?A The research process is full of risks.B The finding of the study is surprising and unbelievable.C The new discovery is beneficial for the study of emotion.D The finding of the study actually contradicts modern science.4、 The underlin
