My old digital camera broke down, so I wanted to buy a new one.Being the cautious type, I fancied a reliable brand.So I went on the Net, spent 15 minutes reading product reviews on good websites, wrote down the names of three top recommendations and headed for my nearest big friendly camera store.There in the cupboard was one of the cameras on my list.And it was on special offer.Oh joy.I pointed at it and asked an assistant, "Can I have one of those? " He looked perturbed( 不安)."Do you want to try it first? "he said.It didn' t quite sound like a question."Do I need to?" I replied, "There's nothing wrong with it." This made him look a bit offended and I started to feel bad."No, no.But you should try it," he said encouragingly, "Compare it with the others.

I looked across at the others: shelves of similar cameras placed along the wall, offering a wide range of slightly different prices and discounts, with each company selling a range of models based around the same basic box. With so many models to choose from, it seemed that I would have to spend hours weighing X against Y, always trying to take Z and possibly H into account at the same time. But when I had finished, I would still have only the same two certainties that I had entered the store with: first, soon after I carried my new camera out of the shop, it would be worth half what I paid for it; and second, my wonderful camera would very quickly be replaced by a new model.

But something in the human soul whispers that you can beat these traps by making the right choice, the clever choice, the wise choice.In the end, I agreed to try the model I had chosen.The assistant seemed a sincere man.So I let him take out my chosen camera from the cupboard, show how it took excellent pictures of my fellow shoppers...and when he started to introduce the special features, I interrupted to ask whether I needed to buy a carry-case and a memory card as well.Why do we think that new options still offer us anything new? Perhaps it is because they offer an opportunity to avoid facing the fact that our real choices in this culture are far more limited than we would like to imagine.

1.The shop assistant insisted that the writer should ____.

A.trust him and stop asking questions

B.try the camera to see if there was anything wrong with it

C.get more information about different companies.

D. compare the camera he had chosen with the others

2.What does the writer mean by "it would be worth half what I paid for it"( Paragraph 2)?

A.He should get a 50% discount.

B.The price of the camera would soon fall.

C. The quality of the camera was not good.

D.The price of the camera was unreasonably high.

3.The writer decided to try the model he had chosen because he ____.

A.knew very little about it

B.wanted to make sure the one he chose would be the best

C.didn' t trust the shop assistant

D.had a special interest in taking pictures of his fellow shoppers

4.It can be inferred from the passage that in the writer's opinion, __.

A.we waste too much money on cameras

B.cameras have become an important part of our daily life

Thoughts claim our attention continuously, and waste our time and energy on unimportant and useless matters. They actually rule our life. We have become so used to this slavery, that we take it for granted, and have become unconscious of this habit, except on certain occasions.

While breathing, we do not need to pay attention to each inhalation and exhalation. We become conscious of the process of breathing only when we have some difficulty with breathing, such as when our nose is blocked, due to a cold, or when we are in an unventilated(不通风的) room.

It is the same with thinking. We become conscious of the constant onslaught of our thoughts, and of our inability to calm them down, only when we need to concentrate, solve a problem or study. We are also aware of them when we have worries or fears.

Look at the following familiar situation. You need to study something for an exam. You sit comfortably on the sofa with the book in your hands and start reading. After a while you feel hungry and go to the kitchen to eat something.

You return to read, and then hear your people talking outside. You listen to them for several moments and then bring your attention back to the book.

After a while you feel restless and switch on the radio to listen to some music. You continue to read for a little while, and then remember something that happened yesterday, and you start thinking about it.

When you look at your watch, you are amazed to find out that one complete hour has passed and you have hardly read anything. And at this time, you feel you’re thinking.

This is what happens when one lacks concentration. Imagine what you could have accomplished if you could control your attention and focus your mind!

1.When can you feel you are thinking?

A. While breathing.
