Coincidences (巧合)happen all the time, but last week something happened that really blew my mind.
I'm from Chicago, but I do business in Baltimore. That started on the night before an important business lunch. I usually sleep like a dog, but that night, I didn't fall asleep until at around 2 o'clock because the last time I looked, it was 1:45. The following morning, I woke up very late, as I rushed out, I noticed the number. Room 145. "That's odd," I thought.
The hotel waiter told me any bus that says "downtown" would take me there. As soon as I got to the bus stop, I saw a bus coming and I found it was 145; however. It didn't say "downtown". It came to a stop right in front of me and the doors opened. I don’t know what came over me, but I just got on.
The bus was empty. “What am I doing?' I thought to myself. I was just about to get off when I saw an envelope on a seat and picked it up. It wasn't sealed (封口)so I looked inside and my jaw(下巴) dropped. It was full of money. I started counting--140 dollars. "Almost" I thought. "That would have been strange, Then, I noticed something on the floor. A five-dollar bill had fallen out. Things were starting to get spooky(诡异).
There was an address on the envelope: Bellmore Street and you can guess which number. I had to go there. So, I waited for the bus driver to stop and asked him how to get to Bellmore Street. “Is this a joke?" he asked as he pointed at a street sign. We were on Bellmore Street. So I got off and searched for the number. My heart was in my mouth when an old lady answered. She looked at me, and then at the envelope and simply said "Oh, thanks,” and closed the door. And that was it.
I stood there for a while. Then I remembered my business lunch. "What time is it?" I thought. I saw it was 12:45. But as I was walking towards the bus stop, I realized something. My watch was still set to Chicago time, which is an hour behind! The actual time was...

The Unexplained Mystery of Pyramid
The Pyramids in Egypt are really something special. We still don’t really know how the Egyptians built the largest pyramid at all, known as the Great Pyramid of Cheops (or Khufu), some 5,000 years ago. Remember, this was even before the invention of the wheel.
The most famous pyramids are the Egyptian pyramids — huge structures built of brick or stone, some of which are among the world’s largest constructions. The age of the pyramids reached its top at Giza in 2575-2150 B.C. In 2008, some 138 pyramids have been discovered in Egypt. The Great Pyramid of Giza is the largest in Egypt and one of the largest in the world. Until Lincoln Cathedral in England was finished in AD 1311, it was the tallest building in the world. The base is over 52,600 square meters in area. While pyramids are associated(关联的) with Egypt, the nation of Sudan has 220 extant pyramids, the most numerous in the world.
In the 1940s, a radio engineer named Karel Drbal claimed(声称) that small pyramids of a 1:1,000 scale as the Great Pyramid could sharpen knives. His explanation was that the pyramid shape focuses energy when precisely aligned (精确对齐) on the north-south axis (轴), which can renew steel.
Though the claims of Drbal and others, there is no scientific evidence that Pyramids have power. It is a cut and dry myth, probably driven by the nature of pyramids and their ancient, unexplained mysteries.
As the neurologist (神经学家) Terence Hines wrote: “People became quite crazy about Pyramid Power in the world of pseudoscience for a time in the mid-1970s. Actually, the idea was that the pyramidal shape itself was magical and filled with a mysterious energy and power.”
1.When did the pyramids develop the best?
A.in 2575-2150 B.C B.In 2008 C.in AD 1311
2.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A.The Great Pyramid of Giza is the tallest building in the world before AD 1311.
B.Sudan has the more extant pyramids than any other country in the world.
C.Lincoln Cathedral was built earlier than The Great Pyramid of Giza.
3.What does the underline word evidence mean in the passage?
A.方法 B.证据 C.痕迹
4.According to Karel Drbal __________.
A.the small pyramids of a 1:1,000 scale as the Great Pyramid are very sharp. ‘
B.the small pyramids of a 1:1,000 scale as the Great Pyramid can renew steel.
C.the Great Pyramid of a 1:1,000 scale as the small Pyramid could sharpen knives.
5.__________ can be inferred (推断) from the passage.
A.Pyramids have magic
B.Pyramids are mysteries
C.Pyramids belong to Egypt

I was four years old, having no ______ of babies. “What is that?” I said the day he ______ came home. “That’s your brother,” said my mother softly. “Call him Joe.” I touched him gently with my little hand and he grabbed hold of my finger. “Wow,” I said, “he’s strong.”
