【題目】Grand Opening
Bentwood Truck Museum Saturday,
November 8, at 10:00 A. M.
After eighteen months of hard work by more than 100 volunteers, the Bentwood Truck Museum is ready to open. The old factory on the corner of Palmer Street and Norman Drive had been scheduled to be destroyed. When Roger Haygood heard about the plans to tear down the building, he bought it so that he could store his collection of old trucks there. Then he had the idea of turning the building into a truck museum.
During the past year and a half, the old building has been transformed into a treasure chest of memories. Instead of a dark and dull house, the building has become a cheery, bright home for all kinds of trucks from the past.
The museum now houses 68 trucks, and we hope to have even more soon. There is a 1959 school bus, a 1942 bakery truck, and a 1937 fire engine. Our oldest vehicle is a 1919 milk truck. Our newest vehicle is a 1966 tow truck.
You can take a ride on a fire truck, a mail truck, or an ice-cream truck. Rides are $2.00, but you can get a ticket for a free ride at any grocery store in Bentwood.
Help us celebrate our grand opening by bringing your family and friends! There is something to interest everyone who attends. The Bentwood Truck Museum is a special piece of our history.

【題目】
If you want to improve your relations with others, there are several ways to do it. You could invite them out to get to know them better, though this might lead to a bad ending if you don't already get on. You could force yourself to like them, even though all your feelings are telling you that you don't. Or you could try the Benjamin Franklin Effect.
Benjamin Franklin was one of the founding fathers of American independence and he's also famous for many scientific achievements. A year after his death in 1793, one book about his life was published and it is there that we find an explanation to what has become known as "the Benjamin Franklin Effect".
In this book, Franklin tells a story about an assemblyman(州眾議院議員) who had snubbed(冷 落)him on several occasions. Franklin asked if he might borrow a certain unusual book from the assemblyman's library. The assemblyman helped Franklin find the book. Franklin thanked him and from then on, they became best friends. Franklin learned the lesson that when you asked someone for help and they helped, they are more willing to give you a hand in future than if you had been the one helping them.
The effect has been proven in a 1969 study by Jon Jecker and David Landy who found that a speechmaker who asked students to lend him some money was more liked by these students better than by those who hadn't been asked. When we ask a person to give us a hand, we are expressing that we consider them to have something we don't, whether more intelligence, more knowledge, more skills, or whatever. This is another way of showing respect and immediately raises their opinion of us and makes them more willing to help us again both because they enjoy the admiration and have honestly started to like us.
Now work out a chance to ask for help from a person that you don't get on with and that would cost them nothing. It could be advice, practical help, or a bit of their time, whatever. Treat this person with your request in a positive and honest spirit.
【1】According to the Effect, if you want to get others to like you, you should________.
A.ask for help from themB.invite them to your home
C.give a hand to them firstD.force yourself to like them
【2】Which of following is true about Benjamin Franklin?
A.He's a practical assemblyman.B.He discovered a lot in science.
C.The Effect was named by himselfD.He got money through the Effect.
【3】What does the last paragraph tell us?
A.To use Benjamin Franklin Effect.B.To prove Benjamin Franklin Effect.
C.To realize Benjamin Franklin Effect.D.To introduce Benjamin Franklin Effect.
