22、How to Think Like a Wise Person
Wisdom is the ability to make sound judgments and choices. 【1】. So, what does it take to distinguish wise people from the rest of the pack? Here are several insights.【2】
The people with the highest wisdom scores are just as likely to be 30 as 60. It indicates that the number of life experiences has little to do with the quality of those experiences.Wisdom emerges not from experience itself, but rather from reflecting thoughtfully on the lessons gained from experience. Developing wisdom is a deliberate choice that people can make regardless of age.
Balance self-interest and the common good
One quality of wisdom is the ability to look beyond personal desires. This doesn’t mean wise people are self-sacrificing. In fact, well-being and success both suffer if we're too focused on others or on ourselves. Wise people reject the assumption that the world is a win-lose, zero-sum place. 【3】.
Aim to understand, rather than judge
More often than not, many of us judge others’ actions so that we can sort them into categories of good and bad. 【4】. Over time, this emphasis on understanding rather than evaluating brings an advantage in predicting others’ actions, enabling wise people to make better decisions.
Focus on purpose over pleasure
It turns out that wise people don’t experience more positive emotions, perhaps because wisdom requires critical self-reflection and a long-term view. 【5】. From time to time, what makes us happy will weigh less than our quest for meaning and significance.
A．Choose your wisdom deliberately
B．It’s a virtue desired by nearly everyone
C．Start developing your wisdom right now
D．It seems like an extremely tough problem
E．They find ways to benefit others that also advance their own objectives
F．However, there’s a clear psychological benefit: a stronger sense of purpose in life
G．Wise people resist this, operating more like detectives to explain others’ behaviors
23、Environmental conditions experienced by parent plants can influence offspring performance through parental effects induced(感应的) by DNA. The offspring can also be influenced by environmental conditions experienced by their parents via soil legacy(遗产) effects due to changes in the composition of soil.
We conducted a two-phase experiment with five genotypes(基因型) of a clonal plant. In the first phase, we grew parent plants of each genotype under two light conditions and two DNA treatments. We then collected soils and clonal offspring for each genotype from each of these four treatments and measured soil properties. In the second phase, we grew the offspring from each of the four treatments in the four different soils, under the two light conditions.
When grown under environmental light condition and in soil from environmental parents, offspring produced by environmental parents grew larger than offspring produced by shaded parents when the parents were treated with water. This difference was smaller when the parents were treated with 5-7°C, and disappeared when the offspring were grown in soil from shaded parents. The growth difference was also observed when the offspring were grown under shaded condition and in soil from shaded parents. However, this difference was greater when the parents were treated with 5-7°C, and disappeared when the offspring were grown in soil from environmental parents.
Our results show that light condition experienced by parents can influence offspring responses to light through both parental effects and soil legacies. The parental effects were mediated(调节) by changes in DNA and the soil legacies. These impacts may eventually influence the ecological and evolutionary track of clonal plant populations.
【1】What is the text mainly about?
A．Environmental conditions are important to offspring performance.
B．Offspring performance can be controlled by DNA and the soil legacies.
C．Environmental conditions experienced by parent plants can influence offspring.
D．Light condition experienced by parents can influence offspring responses to light.
【2】How did the researchers get the result?
A．They carried out a survey.
B．They conducted an experiment.
C．They analyzed existing data.
D．They collected information from others.
【3】What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A．Growth difference only happens under environmental light condition.
B．Offspring of environmental parents grow smaller than offspring of shaded parents.
C．No growth difference appears when offspring are grown in soil from shaded parents.
D．Growth difference varies when parents are treated with 5-7°C under different conditions.
【4】Where is the text most likely from?
A．A diary.
B．A magazine.
C．A novel.
D．A notebook.
