21、“The first and best of victories for a man is to conquer himself; to be conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful,” says Plato. Self-control is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to his impulses (冲动) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral freedom.
A single angry word has lost many friends. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease. “Whoever the gods would destroy, they first make them mad.” “Keep cool,” says Webster, “anger is not argument.” “Be calm in arguing,” says George Herbert, “for fierceness (狂怒) makes error a fault.”
To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger,” says Pythagoras, “begins with foolishness and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him.
Self-control is man’s last and greatest victory.
If a man lacks self-control he seems to lack everything. Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no self-confidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling. If he lacks self-control, the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking too.
【1】What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Self- control is important for a man.
B. We should learn to be strong.
C. A man who keeps cool won’t lose any game.
D. The great heroes in history knew how to control themselves.
【2】What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. If you are mad, the gods will fail you.
B. If you lose your temper first, gods will fail you first.
C. If you can’t control yourself, you will be crazy.
D. If the gods want to fail you, they will make you mad first.
【3】Which of the following is NOT true, according to passage?
A. The first and best of victories for a man is to conquer himself.
B. You will make a small mistake serious if you don’t keep cool.
C. You must measure a man’s strength by the power of the feelings which conquer him.
D. Anger begins with foolishness and ends with regret.
【4】Which of the following can’t help you avoid anger, according to the passage?
A. Being calm in arguing.
B. Checking your temper or anger by speaking low.
C. Keeping your mouth shut.
D. Trying to make the other angry first.
22、 Next fall, when you see geese heading south for the winter, flying along in a V-formation (阵式), you might consider what science has discovered as to why they fly that way.
As each bird moves its wings, it creates uplift for the bird immediately following. By flying in a V-formation the whole group adds at least 71% greater flying range than if each bird flew on its own. People who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going more quickly and easily because they are traveling on the thrust (用力推) of one another.
When a goose falls out of its formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of trying to go it alone and quickly gets back into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird in front. If we have the same sense as a goose, we will also stay in the formation with those who are headed the same way we are.
When the head goose gets tired, it rotates (旋转) back in the wing and another goose flies to the point. It is reasonable to take turns doing demanding jobs—with people or with geese flying south. Geese honk (雁鸣) from behind to encourage those to keep up their speed. What do we say when we honk from behind?
Finally, and this is important—when a goose gets sick or is wounded by gunshots, and falls out of its formation, two other geese fall out with that goose and follow it down to lend help and protection. They stay with the fallen goose until it is able to fly or until it dies, and only then do they fly out on their own, or with another formation to catch up with their group. If we have the sense of a goose, we will stand by each other like that.
【1】Every goose wants to stay in the V formation in order to ________.
A．get an uplift from each other
B．make a beautiful sign in the sky
C．escape from this group
D．just make fun
【2】After finishing this text, we can find that ________.
A．geese’s behaviors seem very meaningful but foolish
B．what the geese do should be adopted by our human beings
C．our human being always hate this way
D．geese are our people’s good friends
【3】What does the underlined sentence “What do we say when we honk from behind?” really refer to?
A．We are crying when we fall behind.
B．We are ashamed of our human’s behavior and really did worse at this aspect.
C．Many people envy this victory.
D．We have no words when we are behind.
【4】If you are asked to write a title for the text, ________would be better.
A．V-formation Is Creative
B．The Life of Geese
C．Flying South
D．Geese’s Cooperation and Friendship
23、 A robot with a sense of touch may one day feel “pain”, both its own physical pain and sympathy for the pain of its human companions. Such touchy-feely robots are still far off, but advances in robotic touch-sensing are bringing that possibility closer to reality.
Sensors set in soft, artificial skin that can detect both a gentle touch and a painful strike have been hooked up to a robot that can then signal emotions, Asada reported February 15 at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. This artificial “pain nervous system”, as Asada calls it, may be a small building block for a machine that could ultimately experience pain.
Asada, an engineer at Osaka University, and his colleagues have designed touch sensors that reliably pick up a range of touches. In a robot system named Affetto, a realistic-looking child’s head, these touch and pain signals can be convertedto emotional facial expressions.
A touch-sensitive, soft material, as opposed to a rigid metal surface, allows richer interactions between a machine and the world, says neuroscientist Kingson Man of the University of Southern California. Artificial skin “allows the possibility of engagement in truly intelligent ways”.
Such a system, Asada says, might ultimately lead to robots that can recognize the pain of others, a valuable skill for robots designed to help care for people in need, the elderly, for instance.
But there is an important distinction between a robot that responds in a predictable way to a painful strike and a robot that’s able to compute an internal feeling accurately, says Damasio, a neuroscientist also at the University of Southern California. A robot with sensors that can detect touch and pain is “like having a robot, for example, that smiles when you talk to it,” Damasio says. “It’s a device for communication of the machine to a human.” While that’s an interesting development, “it’s not the same thing as a robot designed to compute some sort of internal experience,” he says.
【1】What do we know about the “pain nervous system”?
A．It is named Affetto by scientists.
B．It is a set of complicated sensors.
C．It combines sensors and artificial skin.
D．It is able to signal different emotions.
【2】What does the underlined word “converted” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Delivered.
B．Translated.
C．Attached.
D．Adapted.
【3】What does Damasio consider as an interesting development?
A．Robots can put up with pain.
B．Robots can talk to human beings.
C．Robots can compute internal feelings
D．Robots can detect pains and respond accordingly.
【4】What can be the best title of the text?
A．Robots Inch to Feeling Pain
B．Machines Become Emotional
C．Human Feelings Can Be Copied
D．Artificial Skins Gain Intelligence
