21、Principles are universal truths that help us live effective and efficient lives. They are valuable for making the most of our time and energy.
Live deliberately
While you wait for the right moment to live, you forget that life is happening now. Don’t wait till the end of your life and discover that you did not live.
Living deliberately is about purposeful action — choosing to use your time, attention and energy productively. 【1】.
【2】
Find your own way in life. If you can’t, pursue something on the side in your spare time — it can change your perception about life and living it. Purpose can give us energy and motivation to live our life to the fullest. Find a path that is unique to you — trust that your path, strange though it will seem to others, is right for you.
Live in one time dimension — the present
We all have a choice to live in one of three different time dimensions at all times — the past, present and future. 【3】. They spend a lot of time thinking about everything that went wrong their past, or the worst thing that can go wrong in the future.
Living in the moment is not always easy. If you are having a hard time living in the moment, build your awareness skills. Learn to redirect your mind when it wanders. 【4】.
Always be learning
【5】. Learn from them, don’t just copy what works for them. Experiment with the tools and systems of people you admire and keep what works for your personal circumstances. Make life-learning is a life-long process — stay hungry, stay curious.
A．Be mindful of your thoughts and don’t let them consume you.
B．There will always be people who are better and wiser than you.
C．It means being aware of your actions, instead of acting automatically or reacting blindly.
D．Stop worrying about things you can’t change.
E．Most people choose to live in the past or the future but not the present.
F．Your life, your path and your failures should not look like other people’s.
G．Pursue your personal true north.
22、Picture the scene: You come home after work feeling too exhausted to cook –only to find a delicious meal worthy of a Michelin-starred restaurant waiting for you. It sounds like a fantasy, but it could be about to come true thanks to a robot chef developed by British scientists.
Those scientists have come up with a set of robotic arms so smart that they are capable of cooking meals all by themselves. The device will be sold from as early as 2017 as part of a purpose-built high-tech kitchen.
Scientists at Moley Robotics spent almost 18 years developing the hands. According to its creators, the arms can chop, stir, whisk and baste well enough to recreate almost anything you would care to eat, whether it is a simple home-cooked supper, or a complicated creation designed by a world-class chef. The hands move a little slowly, hovering strangely above the work surface whenever they are not busy, but they imitate human movements closely enough that they can do things such as wiping a spoon on the edge of a pan to prevent drips.
Mr Oleynik, who is leading the project, said, “All the things which are possible with the hand are possible here. There is no limitation. A lot of people want to go to Michelin-starred restaurants, but they are quite expensive and may be quite far from the home. This is an opportunity for people to enjoy very good food, and for a reasonable price. ”
The only cuisine that is off the robot’s menu at the moment is sushi, which requires extremely steady pressure and nimble（敏捷的；敏感的） fingers to make, but the team plan to conquer that as well by the time it goes on sale.
【1】People go to Michelin-starred restaurants in order to_________.
A. appreciate car tires B. enjoy delicious meals
C. see the new robot chefs D. escape from work
【2】What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. British scientists B. The robot chef’s arms
C. Cooks at restaurants D. Household wives
【3】Which kind of food CAN’T the robot chef cook at present?
A. Bread B. Beef C. Sushi D. Sandwich
【4】What can we infer from the passage?
A. Hands of a robot chef can perform exactly like a cook.
B. Robot chefs are available at shopping malls.
C. Michelin-starred restaurants are suitable for many people.
D. It is uncertain when the robot can cook all kinds of food.
23、New York University (NYU) is one of the best universities in the United States and it has just opened a school in Shanghai in partnership with East China Normal University(ECNU). The arrival of the American university on China mainland is an example of what is being called the “globalization” of education and it is hoped that this trend will influence the quality of education in all of China’s universities by raising the standard of teaching.
NYU Shanghai’s class of 2017(students will graduate in 2017) is made up of 295 students from China, America and other countries. The students will study liberal arts courses for two years before choosing a major and when they graduate, they will receive a degree from NYU and a degree from ECNU. All the classes will be taught in English, using the teaching methods in American universities. Students will be pushed to take risks in the classroom, pushed to speak up and pushed to say things that are not completely correct, which can make them understand that it’s OK for them to make mistakes in class.
This style of learning will be challenging for many Chinese students, because they will be mixed with the foreign students both in the classroom and in the dormitory. Living and studying with foreigners day to day will provide Chinese students with a cultural as well as academic education and it’s hoped that this cross-cultural experience will benefit them when they seek jobs in the competitive global market.
China’s interest in partnering with foreign universities comes at a time when western universities are trying to expand. They realize that information, technology and business are now borderless; they also realize education should be borderless too. This trend will have a deep effect on bringing the world closer together and the students at NYU Shanghai should be excited to be on the leading edge of this trend.
【1】The opening of NYU Shanghai class may help _________.
A. improve the quality of China’s university education
B. prove that NYU is the best university in the United States
C. send more Chinese students to foreign universities
D. raise the standard of teaching in American university
【2】What is the NYU Shanghai’s class like?
A. It offers the same courses as NYU does in the US.
B. It’s hard to follow the classes without knowing English.
C. The students are majoring in liberal arts courses.
D. Only two-year courses will be provided in this class.
【3】How should the students perform in the classroom?
A. They must express themselves correctly.
B. They should try to be active in the class.
C. They will learn something dangerous.
D. They have to correct their mistakes.
【4】What can be inferred from Paragraph3?
A. More foreign students will work in Shanghai after graduation.
B. Chinese students will get a better education than foreign students.
C. It may be easier for the students to find jobs after graduation.
D. No foreign students can benefit from the cross-cultural experience.
【5】Why are the western universities trying to expand?
A. Because they want to get more information and more money.
B. Because they want to improve their technology.
C. Because Shanghai is on the leading edge in China.
D. Because they think the education resources should be shared.
24、What is loneliness? It’s an emotion.【1】. However, loneliness is very complex and unique to each of us.
【2】. Solitude(独处) is a choice, but feeling lonely isn’t something we want to force ourselves to accept. You want to be around people, but something is making you feel unwanted, empty or isolated, so you’re not having the meaningful connection you seek.
When does it become a problem? When it becomes chronic, when you’re feeling lonely over a long period of time. 【3】. It also can affect self-esteem. You might turn to food and not feel motivated to exercise, as chronic loneliness is linked to increased risk of high blood pressure, obesity and even dementia.
How can you manage loneliness? 【4】. Loneliness is a valid feeling. Don’t brush it under the carpet, as that doesn’t help solve the problem. Seek joy in little things, like smelling a flower or a walk in nature. Celebrate each small achievement. When you decide to change things and seek a connection with others, consider alike-minded group.
How can people help someone who is lonely? The best approach is to sensitively ask how they are and what they’re doing, and listen to the answer in a non-judgemental way. If you want to invite them to do something with you, do it. If they refuse, don’t be discouraged from asking again. 【5】.
A．Attempt to avoid it.
B．Accept and acknowledge it.
C．Loneliness is hard to deal with.
D．They might need time to get prepared.
E．We probably all experience loneliness at some point.
F．It can turn into a mental and physical health problem.
G．There’s a big difference between loneliness and being alone.
