4、What is the connection between violence and sports? Psychologists say that there are many reasons for violence at sports events. One is alcohol. Many fans drink a lot at games. When people drink, they are more likely to do abnormal things. Psychologist Dennis Brock says, "Quiet people become loud. Normally nonviolent people become destructive."
David Sampson, a sports sociologist, agrees, "These are often celebratory riots -- a large number of very happy people mixed in with large amounts of alcohol. They don't often seem dangerous in the beginning, but things get violent quickly."
Another reason for violence at sports events is the crowd itself. When individuals are in a large group of people, they can lose their sense of personal responsibility. Edward Hirt, a social Psychologist, says that research shows that people do things in crowds that they would never do alone. People in crowds feel anonymous--no one knows who they are. Crowds also make people feel powerful. They stop making personal decisions. They just follow the crowd. Social psychologists call this a "mob mentality."
Dave Zarifis, head of public safety at Northern Iowa University says, "Some people don't even come to celebrate. They want to drink hard and make trouble. Someone does something stupid, and it grows from there. You get a mob mentality. People think it's OK to do almost anything. There are so many of us and not enough of them."
Social psychologist Dr. Sharon Kennedy says that there are a few things officials can do to prevent violence. Making sure that an area is not overcrowded is very important. Officials should also think of games as “big parties.” Then they will prepare differently. Kennedy says that in Great Britain they are controlling the problem with cameras in all the stadiums. "When you know someone is watching, you are much less likely to behave badly."

3、A "secret" message, unseen for almost 150 years and making the start of the U.S. Civil War (1861-1865), has been uncovered in Abraham Lincoln's gold pocket watch, U.S. media reported on Wednesday.
"Lincoln never knew of the message he carried in his pocket," Brent D. Glass, director of the National Museum of American History said in a statement.
The message, which was engraved by an Irish immigrant and watchmaker named Jonathan Dillon, is dated April 13, 1861, and reads in part: "Fort Sumpter [sic] was attacked by the rebels" and "thank God we have a government."
"It's a personal side of history about an ordinary watchman being inspired to record something for posterity," Glass said.
The museum decided to open the watch after being contacted by the watchmaker's great-great-grandson, Doug Stiles, who had received a letter from a relative in Ireland. It said that the family had found a letter Dillon had written about the purported (據(jù)說的) message in the watch.
Then Stiles, a 57 -year-old real estate lawyer in Waukegan, Illinois, searched on the Internet and found a New York Times article from 1906, where Dillon told the story at the age of 84.
During the interview, Dillon said that he unscrewed the dial of the watch and wrote on the metal as soon as he heard the news about the first shot of the Civil War. "The first gun is fired. Slavery is dead. Thank God we have a President who at least will try."
However, the actual message that the museum found is different from what Dillon recalled. It reads, "Jonathan Dillon, April 13-1861, Fort Sumpter [sic] was attacked by the rebels on the above date J Dillon, April 13 -1861, Washington, thank God we have a government, Jonth Dillon."
61.Who wrote the message in Abraham Lincoln's pocket watch?
A.Lincoln himself. B.Brent D.Glass.

62.The message was about ________.
A.the start of the U.S.Civil War B.Abraham Lincoln's daily life
C.the slavery in the U.S. D.the ending of the U.S.Civil War

C.the Internet D.Brent D.Glass
64.The underlined word "posterity" in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to "________".
