1、The 44 of asking drivers to be organ donors has shown to be successful. In America, the national average of organ donors is 38% but in Illinois where drivers are asked about organ donation the rate is 60%. Other western nations have also seen huge rises in the number of organ donors since asking dri

Others have criticized the project because it predicts death. The strongest criticism has come from those who highlighted that it con

However, a project that is forced on people, no matter how positive the aims are, will do more damage than

By 1995, the figure had _41_ to 33 percent, and another 20 percent were the US-born children of immigrants. So immigrants and their children now form a(n

11、 in the United States of America, men and women talk such different languages that it is like people from two different cultures trying to 41 . Professor Deborah Tannen of Georgetown University, has noticed the difference in the style of boys and girls conversations from an early age. She says that
12、little girls conversation is less 42 than boys and expresses more doubts. Little boys use conversation to 43 status with their listeners. These differences continue into adult life, she says. In 44 conversations, men talk most and interrupt other speakers more. In private conversations, men and wome
13、n speak in 45 amountsalthough they say things in a different style. Professor Tannen believes that, for woman, private talking is a way to establish and test intimacy(亲切感). For men, private talking is a way to explore the power 46 of a relationship.Teaching is one job where the differences between m
14、ens and womens ways of talking show. When a man teaches a woman, says Professor Tannen, he wants to show that he has more knowledge, and hence more power in conversation. When a woman teaches another woman, however, she is more likely to take a sharing 47 and to encourage her student to join in.But
15、Professor Tannen does not believe that women are naturally more helpful. She says women feel they 48 power by being able to help others. Although the research suggests men talk and interrupt people more than women, Professor Tannen says, women actually encourage this to happen because they believe i
