明天拼音A scarf knitted by a German woman to document her frustrations with frequent train delays has sold for 7,550 euros on eBay.
The "rail delay scarf" drew widespread attention when Sara Weber, a journalist, posted a photo of it on Twitter earlier this month. Her mother, who took a train ride to work every day in Munich area was frustrated at the company's persistent delays and decided to start detailing her daily travel troubles by translating the delays into a wool scarf. Each evening in 2018, she would knit two new lines to reprent how long she was delayed. The scarf is color-coded: gray meant her delay was less than five minutes, pink signified delays of between five and thirty minutes, while red meant she was delay
ed for more than thirty minutes or was delayed both directions.
The scarf was about 1.5 meters long and reprented many Germans’ frustrations with train delays, despite their country's reputation for efficiency and punctuality.
After it became a hit, Weber and her mother decided to auction the scarf off to rai money for a charity that provides assistance for the homeless.

Questions 14 through 16 are bad on the following passage.
NASA has a new job listing, and it's no joke. The US space agency is looking for a "joker" to join thei
r planned mission to Mars.
A mission to Mars is no laughing matter. On average, Mars is 225 million kilometers away from Earth. A trip there would take around eight months in a small spacecraft. "When you're living with others in a clod space for a long period of time, such as on a mission to Mars, problems are likely to occur," Jeffrey Johnson, a scientist at the University of Florida, told the Guardian.
This is probably why NASA wants an astronaut with a n of humor. "The are people that have the ability to pull everyone together," Johnson said.
In stressful situations, perhaps humor is a way to know we aren't alone. By laughing together, we share our stress. Then we can focus on our jobs instead of just worrying.
There are other examples of team "clowns". One example is the journey to the South Pole led by Norwegian explorer Roald Amundn in 1911. It was a difficult journey, full of danger. Adolf Lindstrom, a cook at Amundn's team, was a "clown". He made people laugh through the whole journey. Amundn later wrote that Lindstrom was the most valuable member of the team.
But if you're hoping that your favorite TV comedian will fly to Mars, that probably won't happen.
"Being funny won't be enough to land somebody the job," Johnson said. "They also need to be an excellent scientist and engineer." Besides, they must be in top physical condition. Questions:
14. What is NASA's new job listing? (A)
15. What can we learn about the journey to Mars? (B)
16. What can be concluded from the ca of Lindstrom? (C)
Questions 17 through 20 are bad on the following conversation.
W: Hey, David! Do you want to come to lunch with me? I want pizza.
M: Thanks, Sandy, but I'll pass. I brought my lunch from home.

M: Y ou must be kidding. Controlling the portion size of your meal is almost impossible at a restaurant. They often give you huge amounts!
W: Not where I eat. I can eat everything on my plate. And I save time and money.
M: Eating out isn't cheaper than buying your own groceries. And you spend a lot of time waiting while someone prepares your meal.
W: That's fine with me. I can u that waiting time to read or answer emails, so I save time. And
I don't have to do any preparation or cleanup.
M: Dirty dishes are my least favorite part of cooking. So my wife and kids do the dishes.
W: As a single person, I don't have that luxury. Also, it's no fun to eat at home by mylf.
M: Then make dinner and invite friends over. In my hou, eating meals together is precious family time. We talk about our day.
W: Sounds like an excellent way to spend quality time with others. That's why I like to make plans to eat out with friends.
M: On occasion I enjoy going to a restaurant with my friends. I get to order something that I can't make at home. It's a nice treat.
W: Well, let's have lunch another day.
