10.Nearly two decades has passed,I still remember my favourite professor,James Sehwartz.Whenever he smiles,it's as if you'd just been told the funniest joke on earth.Almost all his students are his friends,and almost all his students know his life story.
When James was a teenager,his father (31)C him to a fur factory where he worked.This was during the Great Depression.The (32)A was to get James a job.
James entered the factory,and immediately felt as if the (33)Bhad closed in around him.The room was dark and hot,the windows covered with dust,and the (34)D were packed tightly together,running like trains.The fur hairs were flying,(35)Ba thickened air,and the workers,(36)C the pieces of fur together,were bent over their needles (37)A the boss marched up and down the rows,searching for them to go faster.James could hardly (38)B.He stood next to his father,frozen with fear,hoping the boss wouldn't (39)Aat him,too.
During lunch break,his father took James to the boss and pushed him in front of him,(40)Bif there was any work for his son.But (41)A there was hardly enough (42)C for the adult labours,for no one would give it up once he took a job.
Thus,for James,it was a (43)B.He hated the place.He made a (44)D that he kept to the end of his life:he would never do any work that brought (45)B to someone else,and he would never allow himself to (46)Amoney off the seat of others.
"What will you do?"his mother,Eva,would ask him.
"I don't know,"he (47)D say.He ruled out law,because he didn't like (48)B,and he ruled out medicine,because he couldn't take the(49)C of blood.
"What will you do?"
(50)A,my best professor I ever had became-he thought it was the job not to hurt anybody.

1.WHY do we sometimes struggle with moral dilemmas?Why is it a crime to take certain drugs but it's acceptable to take others?Why is it wrong to create human embryos (胚胎) to cure diseases suffered by millions?Often,we follow rules that bring little benefit and can even be positively harmful.But the rules are not set in stone,so there is nothing to stop us getting rid of those that don't work and putting better ones in their place.Now an experiment suggests that morality isn't entirely about benefits to individuals.We also tend to make and obey arbitrary moral rules,probably as a way of promoting social consolidation (巩固).
A classic psychology experiment called"trolley (电车) experiment"suggests that our minds have two moral systems,and they don't always agree.In the trolley experiment,participants are told that an out-of-control trolley could kill five people on the tracks.They must decide whether to turn it onto a second track with only one person on it.Almost everyone does it,sacrificing one to save five.But if instead you have to push one person off a bridge onto the track to stop the trolley,most people say no.That suggests most of us have a strict rule against killing people directly,even for the greater good.
How are such rules formed?Although people with morality appear to rule out the act of killing in the bridge experiment,most moral behavior in animals appears focused on outcomes-the death of an individual,say-rather than the death of the majority.When an animal experiences harm to help a relative,biologists view this as increasing the chances that the animal's genes will survive.Many psychologists think that human moral rules are an extension of this"kin (亲族) selection".
Kurzban of the University of Pennsylvania did the experiment further.Kurzban's team gave volunteers changes of the bridge situation.Volunteers were asked what they would do and whether their actions were morally right.85% of them said it would be morally wrong to push one person off to save five,whether these people are brothers or strangers,confirming the idea that there is a rule against killing.However,despite thinking it wrong,28% said they would still push a stranger off to save five,while 47% said they would push a brother off to save five brothers."They're more likely to do this'less moral1 thing if it's to save a relative,"Kurzban says,suggesting kin selection is at work as well as the basic"moral rule"against killing.The experiment shows we have at least two parallel systems for deciding right and wrong:one that says some actions,like killing,are bad,and another that tells us to protect kin.So how is this helpful?
Science has made great steps in explaining morality.No longer is it seen as something handed down from on high.Sacrificing yourself so as to protect your kin,for example,can benefit your family genes.Social consolidation demands we have rules,regardless of what they are,to help settle disputes quickly and peacefully.

18.There is a small shop about 200meters from where I live that sells groceries,meat and other basic necessities.About 10yearsa ago,there was a beggar who would go into the shop every day and ask the owner for a (21)C.The owner,(22)A he would love to help,simply didn't have any jobs availabe,so he kept (23)D the man's office.

To my (34)A,this was the arrangements up until 2years ago,when the owner (35)C.In his will,he only had one (36)C,to give the whole shop to the now stable,"homeless"man.Now,I could walk into that shop and see him working as hard as (37)A,with his own business that is still (38)D and active 10years after getting his job as a sweeper.
From this story,we can probably get the inspiration:work hard and give everything your best effort,even if it isn't your (39)Asituation,it very well may turn out to (40)B some day in the future.

5.In 1883,a creative engineer,John Roebling,was inspired to build a splendid bridge connecting New York with Long Island.However,experts throughout the world thought that this was (16)A.Even so,Roebling could not   (17)C the idea in his mind.After much discussion,he  (18)D  convince his son Washington,an up-and-coming engineer,that the bridge in fact could be built.They hired their   (19)B  and began to build their dream bridge.
Only a few months  (20)C  the project was underway a tragic on-site accident killed John Roebling and  (21)A  injured his son,leaving him brain-damaged and unable to move or  (22)D.Surely now the project would have to be  (23)B.Though Washington Roebling lay in his hospital bed,he was not  (24)A  and his mind remained as  (25)A  as it was before the accident.Suddenly an idea   (26)D him.All he could move was one finger,so he  (27)C the arm of his wife with that finger,(28)C  to her that he wanted her to call the engineers again.Then he used the same method of tapping her arm to tell the engineers what to do.For 13years Washington tapped out his  (29)B with one finger until the bridge was  (30)C completed.
Perhaps this is one of the best examples of never-say-die attitude that  (31)A a terrible physical disability and achieves an impossible (32)D.Often when we face difficulties in our daily lives,our problems seem very small  (33)C  what many others have to face.The Brooklyn Bridge shows us that even the most   (34)B dream can be realized with  (35)A no matter what the chances are.
