Monty Hempel is a professor of environmental science at the University of Redlands in California. He studies ecologi?cal literacy―or eco-literacy, for short. Eco-literacy is the a-bility to think about and understand the natural processes that make life possible.

Monty Hempel says eco-literacy gives people knowledge about environmental problems. But he says it does not always work to get them to change their behaviour.

Mr Hempel wrote part of the Worldwatch Institute's lat?est State of the World report. He says in his article, "Some people think that eco-literacy is just a green form of science literacy. And what I have tried to ask is whether that's e-nough. In other words, what an ecology-literate person needs to know might include things like the cycles and the flows, the energy systems, all of those kind of things that we would call the science of ecology.,,

"That doesn't seem to lead to action to protect our envi?ronment―to protect our life-support system to the level that we need to. Just because that we know a lot about the envi?ronment doesn't mean that we actually act to save it. After all, actions speak louder than knowledge.,,

He adds that people may not be very worried about envi?ronmental problems if they seem far away. "Some people call it psychological distance. A lot of climate issues are worse in the Arctic and most of us don't spend time in the Arctic. And so, there's a certain distance. But there's also a distance that's happening in the world as it urbanizes―people spend?ing more time in front of screens and less time out in nature. We become, if you will, disconnected from the natural sys?tems that used to be the key to success for a human being.,,

To help children discover the wonders of nature, he adds that children should learn about nature in school. But he also points out we have a high mountain to climb from knowledge to action.

   Dyslexia is a learning disorder, and it interferes with the ability to recognize words, and for some readers to under?stand what they have read. Experts say dyslexia affects about five to ten per cent of the population of the United States. Researchers have long known that people with dyslexia write or read words and letters backwards in the wrong order.

   But a new study shows that people with dyslexia may have trouble redirecting their attention between senses, from seeing something to hearing something. The study suggests something that might help dyslexic people learn more quick?ly―play video games.

Vanessa Harrar of Britain's University of Oxford led the study. She reported the findings in the journal Current Biolo?gy, The study suggests that dyslexic people may have trouble moving quickly from what they read to what they hear.

In the study, Doctor Harrar tested 17 people with dys?lexia and 19 others without reading problems. The volunteers were asked to push a button as quickly as possible when they heard a sound, saw a light or experienced both together. Doc?tor Harrar compared the speed of their reactions. She found that people with dyslexia were 〗ust as fast as the others when they saw only a picture or heard only a sound. But the dys-lexics had a slower reaction time when they heard a sound and saw a picture at the same time. This may have an effect on how dyslexic children are taught how to read.

Doctor Harrar feels like playing video games could help dyslexic people shift from seeing to hearing more quickly. She adds that images in video games force the eyes to move and focus quickly. " Video game types of things pop out of here and there, they move your eyes around the screen quite quick?ly in response to things quite quickly, and the more you play a video game the faster you get that kind of thing. So, the vide-o game is really training the attention system to move quick?ly," said Harrar. When children learn the alphabet, they usually see the letter first and then hear the sound , or they see and hear the letter at the same time. The study shows that dyslexics might learn more quickly if they hear the sound of a letter or word first before seeing it.

5.According to Doctor Harrar's study, the dyslexic people
have difficulty in__________ .

 A.     recognizing words

B.     reading words backwards

C.     writing letters in order

B.     They react as fast as others to a single picture or sound.

C.     It takes them longer to react to sounds and pictures together.

D.     It is difficult for them to understand before seeing the word.

7.How does the author suggest dyslexics are taught based on the research finding?

 A.     By putting hearing previous to seeing.

B.     By training the attention on games.

C.     By seeing first and then hearing later.

D.     By moving the eyes around the screen.

8. What can be the best title of the passage?

 A.     Video games might help dyslexics

Stop wasting your time thinking of reasons for your fail?ures. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.

The seeds and the power to grow them, are contained in the most awesome machine ever created: the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You were born a win?ner. You were born rich. You can be a success if only you make the right choice.

You cannot be successful without first developing your self-confidence. Your level of self-confidence is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-confi?dence are people who do not believe that they have any pow?er, or responsibility for their lives. They are always victims. They are leaves tossed(摇摆)by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather.

You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe you are responsible for everything that hap?pens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident and chance. Successful people realize that they are responsible.

Everything happens as a result of something. If you can identify(确定)the cause, you can control the effect. You are responsible for what you choose to think and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. You are respon?sible for setting your expectations. Your success is dependent upon your level of confidence.

In all areas of your life, whether they are financial? physical, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recog?nize this, accept it, and firmly believe it. You are on the road to success.

5.     People with low self-confidence are compared to leaves be?cause they .

While success is surely sweeter than failure, it seems failure is a far better teacher, and organizations that fail mis?erably often flourish (繁荣)more in the long run, according to a new study by Vinit Desai, assistant professor of manage?ment at the University of Colorado Denver Business School. Researchers have found that people missing their goals per?form much better in the long run. That is because they gain more knowledge from their failures than their successes and the lessons are more likely to stay longer in their minds.

"We found that the knowledge gained from success was often fleeting while knowledge from failure stuck around for years," said professor Desai, who led the study. "But compa?nies often ignore failure. Managers may fire people or turn over the whole workforce while they should treat the failure as a learning opportunity.,,

Professor Desai compared the flights of the space shuttle Atlantis and the Challenger. During the Atlantis' flight last year, a piece of insulation(绝缘体)broke off and damaged the left solid rocket booster (火箭助推器)but didn't influ?ence the programme. There was little investigation. The Challenger was launched next and another piece of insulation broke off. This time the shuttle and its seven-person crew were destroyed. The disaster led to a major investigation re?sulting in 29 changes to prevent future disasters.

The difference in response in the two cases came down to this : Atlantis was considered a success and the Challenger a failure.

"Despite crowded skies, airlines are extremely reliable," he said. " The number of failures is extremely small. And past researches have shown that older airlines, those with more experience in failure, have a lower number of acci?dents. "

Professor Desai doesn't recommend finding out failure in order to learn. Instead, he advises organizations to analyse small failures to collect useful information rather than wait for major failures.

1. Why did experts pay little attention to the problem of At?lantis?

 A.     Because it worked perfectly.

B.     Because the right booster was still OK.

C.     Because nothing serious happened then.

D.     Because fewer people died in the flight.

2.Fewer accidents happen to older airlines in that . 

A. their planes couldn't fly high in the sky

 B.      they gained much from experience in failure

C.      their planes were often checked by the experts

D.     they were unpopular among passengers

 3.The passage is written mainly to_____________ .

 A.     show failure is a better teacher than success

B.     explain why the Challenger failed

C.     introduce something about Professor Desai

D.     tell managers how to achieve success

4.Which writing strategy is NOT used in developing the passage?

 A.     Giving definitions.

B.     Making comparisons.

C.     Analysing causes.

D.     Providing different examples.

Time talks. It speaks more plainly than words. Time 9 in many ways.

Consider the different parts of the day, for example. The time of the day when something is done can give a 10 meaning to the event. It is not a 11 to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, 12 he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that something is urgent and 13 immediate at?tention.

The same meaning is 14 telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he may think it is a 15 of life and death. The time chosen for the call 16 its importance.

 In social life, time plays a very 17 part.

In the US, no one would think of keep?ing a business partner 27 for an hour; it would be too rude. A person who is five minutes late is 28 to make a short apology.
