Most British telephone cards are just light green， and card collecting is becoming a popular hobby in Britain and collectors even have their own magazine， International Telephone Cards. One reason for their interest is that cards from around the world come in a wide variety of differences and often very attractive designs. There are 100，000 different cards in Japan alone， and there you can put your own design onto a blank card simply by using a photograph or a business card.

The first telephone cards were produced in Italy in 1976. Five years later the first British card appeared， and now you can buy cards in more than a hundred countries. People usually start collecting cards because they are attractive， small and light and they do not need much space. It is also a cheap hobby for beginners， although for some people it becomes a serious business. In Paris， for example， there is a market where you can buy only telephone cards， and some French cards cost up to 4，000 pounds. The first Japanese card has a value of about 28，000 pounds. Most people only see cards with prices like these in their collectors magazines.

Norman Cousins was a businessman from the United States who often traveled around the world on business. He enjoyed his work and traveling.

Then， after returning to the United States from a busy and tiring trip to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics （USSR）， Mr. Cousins got sick. Because he had pushed his body to the limit of its strength on the trip， a chemical change began to take place inside him. The material between his bones became weak.

In less than one week after his return， he could not stand. Every move that he made was painful. He was not able to sleep at night.

The doctors told him that they did not know how to cure Mr. Cousins illness and he might never get over the illness. Mr. Cousins， however， refused to give up hope.

Mr. Cousins thought that unhappy thoughts were causing bad chemical changes in his body. He did not want to take medicine to cure himself. Instead， he felt that happy thoughts or laughter might cure his illness.

He began to experiment on himself while still in hospital by watching funny shows on television. Mr. Cousins quickly found that 10 minutes of real laughter during the day gave him two hours of pain-free sleep at night.

Deciding that the doctors could not help him， Mr. Cousins left the hospital and checked into a hotel room where he could continue his experiments with laughter. For eight days， Mr. Cousins rested in the hotel room watching funny shows on television， reading funny books， and sleeping whenever he felt tired. Within three weeks， he felt well enough to take a vacation to puerto Rico where he began running on the beach for exercise.

After a few months， Mr. Cousins returned to work. He had laughed himself back to health.

1.Why did Norman Cousins get sick？

A. He did not rest enough.

B. He traveled too much.

Eiffel

埃菲爾

Eiffel was born in 1832 in Dijon city in the east of France. His father was a civil officer in the army. His mother was an imaginative woman. In the mid-19th century， after collapsing of Napoleons Empire， French economy was in a total recession. To move out of poverty， Eiffels mother resolutely took the burden of life， deciding to run a coal bunker by herself. So Eiffel was brought up by his grandmother.

Eiffels grandmother was cautious and kind. Its with his mother and grandmothers influence and education that Eiffel was able to think independently， imagine freely at an early age， which laid foundation for him to be an extraordinary engineer. At age 12， Eiffel entered the local royal middle school. At the beginning， his studies was not good， and he couldnt be admitted to the famous Ecole Polytechnique.

But he was not discouraged. At age 20， with outstanding achievements by hard working he finally was admitted to the tech school to train himself an engineers. He rented a single dorm， studied between a table and a stove day and night. It wasnt long before that he received the diploma of engineer.

After graduating from tech school， one of Eiffels friends recommended him to work as an engineer in Western Railway Bureau. From then on， Eiffel took his career as a structure engineer and made great contribution to human progress with his talent.

In 1860， Eiffel designed and completed famous French Bordeaux Bridge project.The 500-meter-long steel structure was built on 6 piers which went across the river Geelong. The completion of the enormous project made Eiffel well known throughout the engineering field.

With Effiels devotion to studying and his courage to innovate， by using steel and concrete he freed engineering from the “soil” and “wood”. He made great efforts to design the tower，drawing more than 5，000 paper. These valuable materials as the fruit of the Eiffels labor are properly preserved in Paris.

Eiffel， who made miracles in the architectural history， will always be remembered.

埃菲爾出生于1832年法國東部的第戎城。他的父親是軍隊(duì)的文職人員，母親是一位富有想象力的婦女。19世紀(jì)中葉，拿破侖第一帝國滅亡后，法國經(jīng)濟(jì)一片蕭條。為擺脫家境的貧困，埃菲爾的母親毅然挑起了生活的重?fù)?dān)，決定單獨(dú)經(jīng)營(yíng)一家煤棧，于是就將埃菲爾交給外婆撫養(yǎng)。

埃菲爾的外婆心細(xì)善良。正是由于長(zhǎng)期受到母親和外婆耳濡目染的影響和教育，埃菲爾從小養(yǎng)成了善于獨(dú)立思考、大膽設(shè)想、勤學(xué)好問的好品格。這為他日后成為一個(gè)出類拔萃的工程師奠定了基礎(chǔ)。

埃菲爾12歲進(jìn)入本地的一所皇家中學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)。開始時(shí)他的學(xué)業(yè)不算好，中學(xué)畢業(yè)也沒能考上著名的巴黎理工大學(xué)。

技術(shù)學(xué)校畢業(yè)后，埃菲爾經(jīng)朋友介紹進(jìn)入西部鐵路局研究室任工程師。從此，埃菲爾踏上了建筑結(jié)構(gòu)工程師的道路，為人類進(jìn)步與文明貢獻(xiàn)自己的才華。

1860年，埃菲爾設(shè)計(jì)完成了當(dāng)時(shí)法國著名的波爾多大橋工程，將長(zhǎng)達(dá)500米的鋼鐵構(gòu)件架設(shè)在跨越吉隆河中的6個(gè)橋墩上。這項(xiàng)巨大工程的完成，使埃菲爾在整個(gè)工程界名聲大振。

埃菲爾肯鉆研、敢革新。他大膽使用鋼材和混凝土，使土木建筑從“土”和“木”中解脫出來。他為設(shè)計(jì)鐵塔付出了巨大的勞動(dòng)，僅設(shè)計(jì)圖紙就有5000多張。這些寶貴的資料，作為埃菲爾勞動(dòng)的結(jié)晶，至今仍被人們妥善地保存在巴黎。

埃菲爾這個(gè)在人類建筑史上創(chuàng)造奇跡的工程師，將永遠(yuǎn)被人們懷念。
