"...She was married to an officer in India, long ago India; and she had a life of physical adventure(冒险) as exciting as her poetry. Her husband could cross rivers using crocodiles(鳄鱼) as stepping stones. He died when she was only 39. Unwilling to exist without him, she took her life, leaving a son in England. "
I stared at the paper,21 reading ,couldn´t help thinking.
Crocodiles are lazy animals as a rule, but they can move like lightening when they want to. And they don´ t mind hurrying 22 they´ re hungry. There used to be lots in Indian rivers, living on fish mostly; but what´ s a little fish for a fifteen-foot crocodile ？ They ate people, fisherman or anyone else delicious enough to get too near; women doing the 23 , or children playing at the water´ s
24 . A hungry crocodile´ s mouth 25 over a meal with a sound like a gunshot. A big fellow can 26 in a man in two bites (咬)。
That woman´ s husband crossed rivers 27 from one crocodile´ s back to the next. I believe it. It had to be done quickly before the creature could see what was happening. It wasn´ t 28 a brave, active man; and no doubt he improved with practice. He could never look 29 while crossing.
The wife used to watch him--I felt sure of that. She lived 30 the adventure, the 31 excitement of it all. Their real life was with tigers ,snakes...It´ s no wonder she wrote 32 poetry.
Then he died. I imagined how she felt. Was there another man 33 him in India, in the world? She was still young ,hardly a sitting-room widow(寡妇). "I must 34 ,too." she said to herself. So she did what she felt she had to do. A 35 probably ,to her head.
But her young son, their son? Was her love for him nothing compared to her husband?Well, what do you think?

At the University of Kansas art museum,scientists tested the effect of different colored walls on two groups of visitors to an exhibit of paintings.For the first group the room was painted white;for the second,dark brown.Movement of each group was followed by an electrical equipment under the carpet.The experiment showed that those who entered the dark brown walked more quickly,covered more area,and spent less time in the room than people in the white one.Dark brown made people more active,but the activity ended sooner.Not only the choice of colors but also the general appearance of a room affects those inside.Another experiment presented people with photographs of faces whose energy was to be commented.Three groups of people were used;each was shown the same photos,but each group was in an ordinary room—a nice office.The third was in a tastefully designed living room with carpeting.Results showed that the people in the beautiful room tend to give higher marks to the faces than those in the ugly room did.Other studies that students do better on tests taken in comfortable room than in ordinary-looking or ugly rooms.

In the fall of 1924 Thomas Wolfe,fresh from his courses in play writing at Harvard joined the eight or ten of us who were teaching English composition in New York University.I had never before seen a man so tall as he,and so ugly.I pitied him and went out of my way to help him with his work and make him feel at home. His students soon let me know that he had no need of my protectiveness.They spoke of his ability to explain a poem in such a manner as to have them shouting with laughter or struggling to keep back their tears,of his readiness to quote in detail from any poet they could name. Indeed,his students made so much of his power of observation that I decided to make a little test and see for myself.My chance came one morning when the students were slowly gathering for nine o’clock classes. Upon arriving at the university that day,I found Wolfe alone in the large room which served all the English composition teachers as an office.He did not say anything when I asked him to come with me out into the hall,and he only smiled when we reached a classroom door and I told him to enter alone and look around. He stepped in,remained no more than thirty seconds and then came out.”Tell me what you see.”I said as I took his place in the room,leaving him in the hall with his back to the door.Without the least hesitation and without a single error,he gave the number of seats in the room,pointed out those which were taken by boys and those occupied by girls,named the colors each student was wearing,pointed out the Latin verb written on the blackboard,spoke of the chalk marks which the cleaner had failed to wash from the floor,and pictured in detail the view of Washington Square from the window. As I rejoined Wolfe,I was speechless with surprise.He,on the contrary,was wholly calm as he said,”The worst thing about it is that I’ll remember it all.”
