题目内容

Suppose you have three things: a piece of wood, a nail and a hammer. Pretend the wood is a person, and the nail is a mean rumor(语言) about that person. If you hammer the nail in, you're obviously hurting him or her. If you then pull out the nail, there's still a hole in the wood, and the damage has been done.

There are many reasons why that nail of a rumor can be so harmful. Rumors are, quite simply, a form of bullying(欺侮). When a person or a group makes up a rumor about someone or decides to spread gossip, it's usually to hurt someone, break up a friendship, or make someone less popular. It's the same thing as teasing, only it's done behind someone's back instead of to his or her face.

When you spread a rumor about someone, you're sending a signal that the person is outside the group, and somehow less worthy of friendship than others. You're making fun of that person or pointing out negative things about him or her. This can let others think that it's OK to make the person feel bad, and make him or her an outsider.

We need to be able to trust our friends, but gossip and rumors can break this trust. If you tell a personal secret to a friend, and he turns around and tells it to someone else, you might feel like you will get burned if you ever get close to him again.

Letting a rumor influence your behavior is like letting someone else make a big decision for you. Let's say you hear that a teacher plans to call a Snowy Day tomorrow because a blizzard（暴风雪） is coming. Expecting a day off, you don't do your homework as usual. The next morning, the blizzard turns out to be nothing more than a drizzle(毛毛雨), and school isn't off after all. You get zeroes on your work.

1.If a rumor is spread about someone, others may ________.

A. keep away from him or her

B. point out his or her advantages

C. not feel he or she is an outsider

D. be hurt if getting close to him or her again

2.To tell the rumor and the teasing apart, you depend on ________.

A. whether it is painful or not

B. whether it is done behind someone

C. whether it is a kind of bullying

D. whether it is spread fast

3.From the last paragraph, we can infer that ________.

A. it is hard to keep rumors a secret

B. rumors can destroy your interest in learning

C. rumors can control your whole life

D. believing rumors can lead to bad choices

4.The purpose of this passage is to ________.

A. advise on how to deal with rumors

B. teach us how to judge a rumor

C. explain why rumors hurt

D. find out why rumors spread fast

Whenever something looks interesting or beautiful, there is a natural desire of us to capture (捕捉)and preserve it—which means, in this day and age, that we are likely to reach for our phones to take a picture.

Though this would seem to be an ideal solution, there are two big problems associated with taking pictures. Firstly, we are likely to be so busy taking pictures that we forget to look at the world whose beauty and interest encourage us to take a photograph in the first place. And secondly, because we feel the pictures are safely stored on our phones, we never get around to looking at them, so sure are we that we’ll get around to them one day.

The first person to notice the problems was the English art critic(评论家), John Ruskin. He was a keen traveler who realized that most tourists make a poor job of noticing or remembering the beautiful things they see. He argued that humans have a natural tendency to respond to beauty and desire to have it, but there are better and worse expressions of this desire. At worse, we get into buying souvenirs or taking photographs. But, in Ruskin’s eyes, there’s just one thing we should do—attempting to draw the interesting things we see, regardless of whether we happen to have any talent for doing so.

Ruskin said, “Drawing can teach us to see: to notice properly rather than gaze absent-mindedly. In the process of recreating with our own hand what lies before our eyes, we naturally move from a position of observing beauty in a loose way to one where we acquire a deep understanding of its parts.”

Ruskin deplored the blindness and hurry of modern tourists, especially those who prided themselves on travelling around the whole Europe in a week by train, “No changing of places at a hundred miles an hour will make us stronger, happier, or wiser. There was always more in the world than men could see, if they ever walked slowly; they will see it no better for going fast. The really precious things are thoughts and sights, not pace.”

1.According to Paragraph 2, when taking pictures, people tend to ________.

A. forget to appreciate something attractive on the spot

B. find it hard to learn skills of taking good pictures

C. find a good way to keep things in their minds

D. have a chance to meet the challenge of new technology

2.According to Ruskin, what should travelers do to best express their appreciation of and desire for something beautiful?

A. To speak it out openly.

B. To photograph it instantly.

C. To purchase it directly.

D. To paint it immediately.

3.From the fourth paragraph, we can infer that Ruskin encourages us to be ________.

A. considerate and determined

B. active and adventurous

C. creative and thoughtful

D. sensitive and ambitious

4.The underlined word “deplored” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.

A. appreciatedB. criticizedC. favoredD. ignored

On her first morning in America last summer, my daughter went out to explore her new neighborhood alone, without even telling my wife or me. Of course we were worried; we had just moved from Berlin, and she was just 8. But when she came home, we realized we had no reason to panic. Beaming with pride, she told us how she had discovered the little park around the corner, and had made friends with a few local dog owners.

When this story comes up in conversations with American friends, we usually meet with polite disbelief. Most are horrified by the idea that their children might roam(闲逛) around without adult supervision.

A study by the University of California has found that American kids spend 90 per cent of their leisure time at home, often in front of the TV or playing video games. Such narrowing of children's world has happened across the developed world. But German parents are generally much more accepting of letting children take some risks.

“We are depriving(剥夺) them of opportunities to learn how to take control of their own lives,” writes Peter Gray, a research professor at Boston College. He argues that this increases the chance that they will suffer from anxiety, depression, and various other mental disorders, which have gone up dramatically in recent decades.

I am no psychologist like Professor Gray, but I know I won't be around forever to protect my girls from the challenges life holds in store for them. And by giving kids more control over their lives, they learn to have more confidence in their own capabilities.

1.Hearing the author's daughter exploring the new neighborhood alone, his American friends feel ________.

A. worriedB. proudC. doubtfulD. terrified

2.We can conclude from Paragraph 3 that ________.

A. American kids enjoy playing at home

B. German parents are less protective than American parents

C. German kids like taking risks more than American kids

D. American parents don't limit their children's activities in their leisure time

3.It's implied from Professor Gray's words that ________.

A. parents should always be around their children to protect them from risks

B. more and more parents suffer from mental problems

C. children are having more opportunities to take control of their lives

D. giving children more freedom is beneficial to their mental development

4.Which of the following words can best describe the author's parenting?

A. Open-minded.B. Irresponsible.C. Careless.D. Protective.

Here are five things that you should give up. Starting today, we will give up on all those things that no longer serve us, and we will embrace change. Ready? Here we go!

1. Give up on your need to blame others for what you have or don’t have, for what you feel or don’t feel. Stop giving your powers away and start taking responsibility for your life.

Give up your limiting beliefs. Give up your limiting beliefs about what you can or cannot do, about what is possible or impossible. From now on, you are no longer going to allow your limiting beliefs to keep you stuck in the wrong place. Spread your wings and fly!

A belief is not an idea held by the mind. 2._

Give up your need to impress others. Stop trying so hard to be something that you're not just to make others like you. 3. The moment you stop trying so hard to be something that you're not, the moment you take off all your masks, the moment you accept and embrace the real you. You will find people will be drawn to you, effortlessly.

Give up on your fears. Fear is just an illusion, it doesn’t exist unless you create it. It's all in your mind. Correcting the inside and the outside will fall into place. _4.

Give up your excuses. 5. Instead of growing and working on improving ourselves and our lives, we get stuck and lie to ourselves，using all kinds of excuses, excuses that 99.9% of the time, are not even real.

D. It is an idea that holds the mind.
