Welcome to Greyhound Lines! Feel free to explore the bus features.
We want you to feel at home when you travel with us. So our buses have plenty of
features to help you relax, like comfy leather seats and lots of legroom (plus free
Wi-Fi, onboard entertainment and power outlets so you can still be an armchair
surfer).
Free Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi is free on all our buses, for all passengers. We see it as a must-have these
days, not a premium(高级的) feature. So go ahead, check your emails or Instagram
window scenery from the road (we’d love if you tag it). Please don’t stream video
during your journey, though - we’ve all got to share the bandwidth(宽带)!
Personal Power Outlets
Nearly every seat has its own standard power outlet, so you can keep your devices
charged all the way to your destination. Getting off with a fully charged phone is extra
handy if you’re navigating around a new place.
Extra Legroom
When designing our new and updated buses, we actually removed a whole row of
seats rather than trying to squeeze more in. So there’s always space to stretch out
when you ride with Greyhound. (Our bus designers must have been really tall.)
Eco-friendly
Every Greyhound bus is fully equipped with the latest technology to burn fuel
cleanly, reducing our impact on the environment. Check out the Going Green page for
more of our eco-efforts, and techy facts on things like low-sulfur fuel.
1．Why does the company offer free Wi-Fi on the bus?
A．Because passengers are encouraged to post photos online.
B．Because the company wants to earn extra money.
C．Because passengers need to check their emails.
D．Because the company considers it necessary.
2．Which is available on the bus?
A．A fully charged phone. B．Eco-friendly equipment.

C．Standard power outlets. D．A new design of the bus.
3．What kind of company is Greyhound Lines?
A．A bus operator. B．A bus producer.
C．An entertainment company. D．A ticket company.

When I first met professor Dalecki, I respected him greatly. He walked in the
class in formal business suits as if he was prepared for a conference. He greeted
everyone with a loud and clear “Good morning” like Jon Stewart from Daily Show.
Then he started introducing himself and told everyone his name is Jacek, atypical(不
同寻常的) Polish name that no one knows how to pronounce. He shared his
frustration with the class and said, “People have already invented more than ten odd
ways of calling my name in the past decade, and most Americans prefer to call me
Jay-cek, but it is really ya-cek.” From that moment, I knew there was something about
him that made him stand out among all the professors I’d known before.
Professor Dalecki never believed in exams. He understood the huge workload
that students have and never intended to make the exam questions hard for us to
memorize. I once told him that I almost felt like the hell gate opened for me if I got a
C．But he laughed and said, “If it were not for my loving girlfriend giving me the
exam questions, I can tell you I’d still be in high school somewhere in Warsaw.”
What impressed me most was the extent he would go to avoid bias (偏见) in the
classroom. He could turn an entire class into a battleground where everybody gets
excited for a heated debate while staying objective as a mediator (调解人) who
refused to force his own opinions on any side.
I visited him during his office hours once after class, eager to find out what his
stances are on some of the issues we’ve covered in the class, so I asked, “In China,
people really aren’t that serious with when it is okay for teenagers to drink. What do
you think of the minimum drinking age in America being set at 21?”
“I’m not supposed to answer that question,” he said.
“But why? You don’t seem to take any side during the class and I’m just curious
to hear how you really feel!”
“I choose not to share it because I don’t want it to cloud your own judgments
about how you think about certain things.”
At that moment, I finally understood how much effort it really took for Dalecki to
let us do our thinking on our own. His incredible mindset (观念模式) still has a huge
influence on me till this day. So I will end this article with his quote: “It is at this stage
in the class that I must ask myself, ‘Did I lie to you?’”
4．Why did professor Dalecki share his frustration with the class?
A．Because he wanted to be comforted.
B．Because he was really sad as his name was odd.
C．Because he cared much about the pronunciation.
D．Because he tried to introduce himself in a unique way.
5．What did professor Dalecki want to express in Paragraph 2?
3
A．To tell the author not to be nervous about the exams.
B．To make himself stand out.
C．To laugh at the author.
D．To encourage the author to look for a girlfriend to help him.
6．What does the underlined word “stances” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A．Circumstances. B．Altitudes.
C．Attitudes. D．Performances.
7．What can we learn from the text?
A．Professor Dalecki is objective when dealing with our quarrels.
B．Professor Dalecki is humorous and expert at education.
C．Professor Dalecki once scolded the author in his office.
D．Professor Dalecki always refuses to communicate with his students.
C
As a young child, I was painfully shy. I’d watch other children play in the park,
wishing I could join them, but I was too scared to approach. Eventually, my mother
would come to the rescue. She’d ask the other kids if I could play, too. Today, I feel
comfortable giving public lectures in large halls and having conversations in small
groups, but I still tend to avoid situations in which I’m expected to spend time with a
roomful of strangers.
There could be many reasons. For one thing, I might be carrying some childhood
fear of rejection. But beyond that possibility, one likely element is that I tend to
underestimate how much people like me after I meet them, as most of us do.
A new research paper reports that the common concern that new people may not
like us, or that they may not enjoy our company, is largely unfounded.
Erica Boothby of Cornell University and her colleagues conducted a series of
studies to find out what our conversation partners really think of us. In doing so, they
discovered a new cognitive illusion
（认知错觉）
they call “the liking gap”: our failure
to realize how much strangers appreciate our company after a bit of conversation.
The researchers observed the gap in a variety of situations: strangers getting
acquainted in the research laboratory, first-year college students getting to know their
dormitory mates over the course of many months, and community members meeting
fellow participants in personal development workshops. In each circumstance, people
consistently underestimated how much others liked them. For much of the academic
year, as dormitory mates got to know each other and even started to develop enduring
friendships, the liking gap persisted.
The data also revealed some of the potential reasons for the illusion: we are often
more severe with ourselves than with others, and our inner critic prevents us from
appreciating how positively other people evaluate us. Not knowing what our
conversation partners really think of us, we use our own thoughts as a proxy
（代理人）
.
This is a mistake, because our thoughts tend to be more negative than reality.
8. Why does the author mention his childhood experience?
A. To show how his character changed.
