Reading is not the only way to gain knowledge of the work in the past. There is another large reservoir (知识库) which may be called experience, and the college students will find that every craftsman (工匠) has something he can teach and will generally teach gladly to any college student who does not look down upon them. The information from them differs from that in textbooks and papers chiefly in that its theoretical (理论的) part -- the explanations of why things happen -- is frequently quite fantastic (神奇的) . But the demonstration (示范) and report of what happens, and how it happens are correct even if the reports are in completely unscientific terms. Presently the college students will learn, in this case also, what to accept and what to reject. One important thing for a college student to remember is that if Aristotle could talk to the fisherman, so can he.
  Another source of knowledge is the vast store of traditional practices handed down from father to son , or mother to daughter, of old country customs ,of folklore (风俗). All this is very difficult for a college student to examine, for much knowledge and personal experience is needed here to separate good plants from wild grass.The college students should learn to realize and remember how much of real value science has found in this wide, confused wilderness and how often scientific discoveries of what had existed in this area long age.
【小题1】 In the last paragraph the phrase "this wide, confused wilderness" refers to _____.

A.personal experience

A.The college students have trouble separating good plants from wild grass
B.Craftsman’s experience is usually unscientific
C.The contemptuous (傲慢的) college students will receive nothing from craftsmen

【小题3】 The author advises the college students to ______ .
A.be contemptuous to the craftsman
B.be patient in helping the craftsman with scientific terms
C.learn the craftsman’s experience by judging it carefully
D.gain the craftsman’s experience without rejection

The secret of happiness is to spend around £2.50 every day on somebody else.

To give a couple of pounds each day rather than to spend it on treats and fashion for yourself is the key to happiness, according to a new study.

Dr Elizabeth Dunn and her colleagues who did a national survey of 630 people in the United States found that people report greater happiness if they spend money more socially. That means spending on gifts for others or on charitable(慈善的) donations rather than spending on themselves.

"We wanted to test our theory that how people spend their money is at least as important as how much money they earn," says Dunn, who reports the work in Science.

The results from all three lines of research are quite the same.

"Regardless of how much income each person made," says Dunn, "those who spent money on others reported greater happiness, while those who spent more on themselves did not."

"Making a modest donation is enough to increase people's happiness" the researchers conclude.

"These findings suggest that a very small change in spending, as little as £2.50, may be enough to produce real gains in happiness on a given day," says Dr Dunn.

The researchers call on governments to encourage people to spend more on others to help translate increased national wealth into increased national happiness.

Surveys have also shown that happiness levels have remained almost flat within developed countries even as incomes have increased in recent decades.

65.According to the survey, what kind of people have greater happiness?

A.People who can make enough money.

B.People who can buy whatever they want.

C.People who spend money on treats and fashion for themselves.

D.People who spend a modest amount of money every day on others.

66.The underlined word "flat" probably means______.

A.smooth       B.dull     C.same    D.interesting

67.Which of the following statements is true?

A.Researchers pay no attention to spending on others.

B.The government did much in helping others.

C."Science" in Paragraph 4 is probably a magazine.

D.The survey is very successful.

68.The purpose of the writer is to tell us______.

A.the secret of happiness.      B.money spent on friends.

C.link between money and happiness.   D.difference between national wealth and happiness.

A private group of scientists has announced plans to make an exact copy of a human being. An American member of the team says he and  the others will soon begin a serious effort to clone humans. Panos Zavos says the team hopes to manufacture the world’s first cloned baby within the next two years.
In recent years, scientists have produced exact genetic copies of sheep and a few other animals. They created these clones from a single cell of an adult animal.
Three years ago, another American doctor, Richard Seed, announced plans to clone a human being. However, there is no evidence that he has been successful.
Doctor Zavos says the new international group plans to offer human cloning only to women who are currently not able to become pregnant or produce children. He says the aim is to assist people who want to have their own biological child.
The technology would be similar to that used to clone animals. It would involve cleaning genetic material from a woman’s egg. Doctors then would place genetic material from the woman’s husband into the egg before putting it into the woman’s uterus(子宫).
Doctor Zavos says his group plans to do the work in a country near the Mediterranean Sea. He did not name the country. He says an Italian reproductive expert, Sevorino Antinori, is leading the team. Doctor Antinori has led the efforts to help many older women become pregnant. He is known for establishing pregnancies in women as old as sixty.
Many medical experts and other groups are opposed to the idea of cloning humans. Several countries ban or restrict work on human cloning. Several doctors criticize the announcement by Doctor Zavos. They say doctors do not know if cloning humans is possible or safe. They say it would be irresponsible to attempt to clone a human being. That is because the chances of success are too small and the risks are too great.
【小题1】The underlined word “manufacture” in the first paragraph  means “_________”.

A.produceB.opposeC.attemptD.experiment
【小题2】Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.In theory, scientists are unlikely to clone humans.
B.Richard Seed has fallen behind other scientists in cloning humans.
C.Cloning human beings is good for men.
D.People have different ideas about cloning humans.
【小题3】How do many medical experts and other groups like the idea of cloning humans?
A.They are in favour of the idea.
B.They are against the idea.
C.They have an optimistic attitude to the idea.
D.They think it is none of their business.

Most people want to be successful, but never stop to think what it will really take to get there in their chosen field. If it means going back to college for 2 years of night school, could you do it ? If it means reading a book a week for about 6 months in order to really master a new skill ? If you aren’t prepared to do any of those things because they are outside of your comfort zone, then you can forget being succesful. I guarantee you will never reach your goals in life, unless your goals are to be ordinary.

The biggest killer by far is the dreaded “ comfort zone ” where most people live in their entire life. And the funny thing is that people just can’t wrap their heads around the fact that people who have reached some success get tons of time to just relax, but only because they’ve earned it ! If you haven’t built a successful business, or in some way built a career that allow you so much freee time, then you are stuck in the grinding world of nine-to-five jobs everyone else. So how comfortable is that ?

So what can you do about it ? Well, find a way to make something happen in your life--- build a business around your favourite hobby, write a book and publish it, or take a course in stock trading and become an expert at that, working on making enough money to retire. If you don’t take massive action that puts your way of your comfort zone, you will never be successful at much of anything. I promise--- and I don’t make many promises !

Finding real happiness in life can be a mystery for many. That’s why I wrote The Road to Happiness for those who want real success and happiness in life, including spirituality and all the gifts life has to offer.

Don’t wander aimlessly through life. Get focused on your goals, start helping others in need, and live life to the fullest ! Life is too short to be anything but happy.
