Imagine a world in which there were suddenly no emotion — a world in which human beings could feel no love or happiness, no terror or hate. Try to imagine the consequences of such a transformation. People might not be able to stay alive: knowing neither joy nor pleasure, anxiety nor fear, they would be as likely to repeat acts that hurt them as acts that were beneficial. They could not learn: they could not benefit from experience because this emotionless world would lack rewards and punishments. Society would soon disappear: people would be as likely to harm one another as to provide help and support. Human relationships would not exist: in a world without friends or enemies, there could be no marriage, affection among companions, or bonds among members of groups. Society's economic underpinnings (支柱) would be destroyed: since earning $10 million would be no more pleasant than earning $10, there would be no incentive (动力) to work. In fact, there would be no incentives of any kind, for as we will see, incentives mean a capacity to enjoy them.

In such a world, the chances that the human species would survive are next to zero, because emotions are the basic instruments of our survival and adaptation. Emotions structure the world for us in important ways. As individuals, we categorize objects on the basis of our emotions. True, we consider the length, shape, size or texture, but an object's physical aspects are less important than what it has done or can do to us — hurt us, surprise us, anger us or make us joyful. We also use categorizations colored by emotions in our families, communities, and overall society. Out of our emotional experience with objects and events comes a social feeling of agreement that certain things and actions are "good" and others are "bad", and we apply these categories to every aspect of our social life — from what foods we eat and what clothes we wear to how we keep promises and which people our group will accept. In fact, society uses our emotional reactions and attitudes, such as loyalty, morality, pride, shame, guilt, fear and greed, in order to maintain itself. It gives high rewards to individuals who perform important tasks such as surgery, makes heroes out of individuals for unusual or dangerous achievements such as flying fighter planes in a war, and uses the legal penal (刑法的) system to make people afraid to engage in antisocial acts.

1. Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?

A. people would not be able to tell the physical aspects of objects.

B. People would not know what was beneficial and what was harmful to them.

C. $ 10 million is equal to $ 10 in a world without emotions.

D. There would be full of lies, arguments and violence.

2. In can be inferred from the passage that the economic foundation of society is dependent on ________.

A. the ability to make money

B. the capacity to work

C. the motivation to work

D. our emotional experiences

3. Why are the emotional aspects of an object more important than its physical aspects?

A. They help society use its members for more profit.

B. They encourage us to perform important tasks in the war.

C. They help to perfect the legal and penal system to make people afraid.

D. They help us adapt our behaviors to the world surrounding us.

4.What is the text mainly about?

A. People could only live in a world with emotions.

B. People would always do bad things in the emotionless world.

C. Emotions are very important in the world.

D. Emotions structure the world for us in important ways.

I was working as a short-order cook at two restaurants in the same neighborhood. At an Saturday night, I was finishing the dinner shirt at a first restaurant and hurrying to work at the second place, but I was delayed. Because one table kept sent back an order of pancakes, insisting they were too colder. I replaced it several times, and still the customers were dissatisfied.

As soon as I was able to leave, I race out of the restaurant. Hardly I arrived at my second job when a server immediately handed me my first order. “Make sure of that these pancakes are hot,” she said, “because the customers just left a restaurant down the street where kept serving them cold ones.”

Finding summer jobs for teenagers has not always been easy, but now you no longer have to worry about what your kid can do to earn their own money．Recently I found some different sites online that offer information about what kids can do．Below is some of that information, along with questions to think about to help you come up with your own ideas．

Ideas for summer work

●Parks and Recreation Programs．

●Babysitting （当临时保姆） during the day of school．

●Working part-time at a day care for the summer．

●Car washing．

●Working at local vegetable stands．

The easiest way for you to find ways for your child to make money is to think about others’ inconveniences （不方便）．Think of things you need done, or would like to have done, and what you would consider paying for these things to get done．Once you have some ideas, you can sit down with your child and talk to them about what they would be interested in doing．Then once you have an idea of what they want to do you can help them come up with fair prices．

Preferably you would want to only have your child working with people you know and trust, or in the least bit you could have your child pick a partner．That way with each of them carrying cell phones, even those without service can call 911, they will be much safer．

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

Chinese female scientist Tu Youyou won the 2015 Nobel Prize in medicine on October 5 for her discoveries concerning a novel treatment against Malaria（疟疾）． This is the first Nobel Prize given to a Chinese scientist for work carried out within China．

Tu shared the prize with Irish-born William Campbell and Satoshi Omura of Japan, who were honored for their revolutionary anti-roundworm treatment． 84-year-old Tu is awarded this prize for her contribution to cutting the death rate of malaria, reducing patients’ suffering and promoting mankind’s health． Although she received several medical awards in the past, the 2015 Nobel Prize is definitely the most privilege reward that recognizes Tu’s dedication and perseverance in discovering artemisinin（青蒿素）, the key drug that battles malaria-friendly parasites（寄生虫）．

However, her route to the honor has been anything but traditional． She won the Nobel Prize for medicine, but she doesn’t have a medical degree or a Phd．In China, she is even being called the “three-noes” winner: no medical degree, no doctorate, and she’s never worked overseas． No wonder her success has stirred China’s national pride and helped promote confidence of native Chinese scientists．

The fact that Tu has none of these three backgrounds reminds us that science should be more accessible to all． One shall be able to become a scientist no matter what kind of background he or she comes from, as long as one dives into scientific research． There have been discussions on people who really love science but are never able to achieve much during their whole life． Their contributions can never be ignored．They work so hard to prove the wrong way so that the future researchers will be closer to the right one．

As the first Chinese mainland Nobel Prize Winner of natural science award, Tu’s record-breaking winning also serves as a reminder to those who are too eager for instant success． Science is never about instant success． Tu spent decades on scientific research before its value is officially acknowledged．There is no way to measure how much one devotes to science and compare it with how much reward he or she may get．

1.It can be concluded from the text that __________．

A． Tu worked home and abroad to conduct her research

B． Tu got the Nobel Prize for her anti-roundworm treatment

C． The Nobel Prize is the first award to recognize her work

D． Her discovery of artemisinin has helped to cut Malaria death rate

2.The author seems to agree that a person who is more likely to become a scientist is the one with__________．

A． a sense of national pride

B． relevant academic knowledge

C． a desire to achieve success

D． enthusiasm for scientific research

3.In writing the passage, the author intends to ___________．

A． inform readers of the news and make comments

B． discourage the pursuit of instant success in science

C． remind readers of the principles of scientific research

D． praise the award winner and encourage scientific research
