After a long pause, the young man replied, "No." "I guess I've always known that many students are just_9_my course to get a requirement out of the way, " Naumoff said."But it was 10 to see that some couldn't even go to the trouble of 11 the name of the person teaching the course." The other UNC professors at the 12 began sharing their own stories about the troubling state of curiosity on 13 . All of them have noted that such ignorance isn't 14 -students have always possessed far less knowledge than they should.But in the past, 15 tended to be a source of shame and motivation. Students were far more likely to be 16 by not－knowing, far more eager to fill such gaps by learning. 17 , nowadays as one reviewer once said, "It's that they don't 18 what they don't know." In our increasingly complex world, the amount of information required to master any 19 discipline-e.g.computers, life insurance, medicine-has expended geometrically (成几何级数增加地). We are forced to 20 specialists, people who know more and more about less and less.Curiously, in a world where everything is worth knowing, nothing is. | ||||

查看习题详情和答案>>You feel happiest when you create a healthy balance between giving and receiving. If you give and give without making time to fill your own needs, then it’s likely you will burn out, or feel upset .When you take and take without giving anything back, you never feel fulfilled, so you are always searching for ways to fill the void in your life.
The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving is to know and then live by your values. I break values up into two groups which I call being and having values. Your being values are the character traits of the ideal person you would like to be. I suggest to my clients that they choose three being values that they are willing to make a commitment to live by. An example of some being values are: kind, loving, generous, inspirational, peaceful, wise and even powerful. By acting on these values you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by being a positive role model. Mastering being these character traits becomes your life purpose.
Your having values are the feelings you need to create in order to be happy. These could be companionship, achievement, support, being valued or financial security. This is what you receive. You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions in your life.
When you make a commitment to live by your being values, it becomes easier to make conscious choices rather than reactionary ones. If your usual pattern is to talk about your problems, you could choose to think and act like a calm person. A calm person might go for a walk, meditate, or set a time limit before responding. If your usual pattern is to worry, you could choose to act like a responsible or wise person. In other words, you would act like the person you choose to be—this is the key to personal power.
When you choose to act on your values, you not only feel good about yourself, you reinforce your chosen beliefs. Over time acting in this way changes how you see the world, and in turn the way other people think of you.
The main purpose of this passage is to .
A. persuade the readers to make a commitment
B. explain to the readers what personal values are
C. inform the readers how to be truly happy
D. instruct the readers how to make wise choices
According to the text, living by your being values, you would .

C. seek all human virtues D. fill your own needs
The underlined word “void” in Paragraph 1 means .

C. a break of continuity D. a state of confusion

A. Having values are better than being values.
B. A calm person does not choose to complain.
C. The way other people think of you decides who you are.
D. A responsible person does not care about financial security.
