B“They tell me that youd like to make a statue（塑像）of me is that correct, Miss Vinnie Ream?” The deep, gentle voice he
30、lped calm the nervous girl. Asking a favor of the President of the United States was no casual matter, especially for a seventeen-year-old girl. “Yes, sir,” she replied, her dark eyes meeting his. “I wouldnt have dared to ask you, but my teacher, Mr. Mills, says I am ready. I plan to make it in an a
31、dmirable manner. ” President Lincoln smiled. “Painters, sculptors theyve all tried to make the best of this ordinary face, but Im afraid theres not much hope. What did you have in mind, Miss Ream? A bust（半身像）?” Before Vinnie could say yes, the President hurried on, a shade of apology in his voice. “
32、Of course I shouldnt have asked. A full-length pose would be much too big a project for a young woman your size. ” Vinnies face turned red. She realized she looked like a child, with her tiny figure. “Small does not mean weak, sir,” she defended herself. “I was born in the country of Wisconsin. Ive

Making a full-length clay（粘土）figure would not exhaust my strength and that is what I intend to do!”The Presidents eyes, brightened at her show of spirit. “Sorry, madam, I have underestimated you as I didnt know your background. ” But his smile faded as he ru
34、bbed his beard with bony fingers, in thought. “Miss Ream,” he sighed, “Id like to let you do it, but as you know, we are in the middle of a war. How could I possibly take the time to pose for a sculpture now? I hardly have a minute to myself. ” Vinnie glanced around and noted the size of his office.
35、 “I work quickly,” she said. Her voice was soft but confident as she pointed to the corner near the windows. “If I were to bring my clay here and work for three hours every afternoon, I could complete most of the project while you are at your desk. ” The President seemed to consider her idea serious
36、ly. He got up and shook Vinnies hand warmly, “Ive heard that you are a talented young woman, and I have found you charming and intelligent as well. I cannot make my decision immediately, but you will hear from me soon. ” The very next day, Vinnie received an invitation from the President. 41. What g

40、ence. C. Ups and downs make one strong. D. Devotion requires enthusiasm. CFor people, who are interested in sound, the field of sound technology is definitely making noise. In the past, sound engineers worked in the back rooms of recording studios, but many of todays sound professionals are sharing
41、their knowledge and experience with professionals in other fields to create new products based on the phenomenon we call sound. Sound can be used as a weapon. Imagine that a police officer is chasing a thief. The thief tries to escape. And the officer cant let him get away. He pulls out a special de

44、ut to go crazy. Thanks to the Silence Machine, a British invention, you can get rid of the sound without upsetting the boy or his parents. One may wonder how the Silence Machine works. Well, it functions by analyzing the waves of the incoming sound and creating a second set of outgoing waves. The tw
45、o sets of waves cancel each other out. Simply turn the machine on point it at the target, and your peace and quiet comes back.

46、a stage; similarly, a spotsound creates a circle of sound in one targeted area. This can be useful for businesses such as restaurants and stores because it offers a new way to attract customers.

47、rs more control over the atmosphere in which they are dining. Directed sound is also beginning to appear in shopping centers and even at homes. 46.
