When you do some minor image editing (修正) on your computer screen, you may make some mistakes, so from time to time you"d click undo (撤消). There are things in life we cannot undo as easily and completely as we would with our computer files. A wrong turn, a hurtful word said to a loved one, a bad move - these we all commit as we walk our life"s journeys, no matter how careful we are in our steps. Once committed, we can no longer undo many of these mistakes, especially because unlike with our computer documents, each thing we do and say has vast impact as they involve not just us - the file that we are working on - but also others, the unopened files and computer programs in our system. So I guess our life"s mistakes are not like our pencil scrawls (潦草书写) that can be effectively corrected with an eraser, or errors on our computer works that can be undone with an undo button. But there are effective and reliable tools we can use-APOLOGY and FORGIVENESS. Simply click the APOLOGY button when you have committed a mistake that has hurt a loved one and the words "I"m Sorry" will flash on the other person"s screen. But, you have to be truly sorry and you must be prepared not to commit the same mistake again for your APOLOGY to work. Sincerity is definitely a necessary part. When someone clicks the APOLOGY button and the words "I"m sorry" flash on your screen, all you have to do is click back the FORGIVENESS (原谅) button. It means that you have wholeheartedly accepted the other person"s APOLOGY. But not only that. You also have to click it when someone has sent you back the message "It"s okay. Forget about it.". It means that you are also forgiving yourself for your mistake; that you won"t keep feeling so bad having committed it. And lastly, don"t forget to keep clicking the SAVE button. Going through the whole process of editing-of doing and undoing, of apologizing and forgiving - is useless if you fail to save the LESSON for future use. Let the saved file be a reminder of the healing process you once went through to make yourself better; for you not to forget the lesson; and for others to access and learn from.
1. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. However careful we are, we still make mistakes in life. B. Things we do and say can affect computer programs in our system. C. We can undo life"s mistakes if we are careful enough. D. An eraser is an effective tool for our computer works.
2. The APOLOGY button should be clicked when ________.
A. one wants to make the computer work perfectly B. one"s mistakes won"t influence others any more C. one is actually saying "I"m sorry" D. one won"t make the same mistake again
3. What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The UNDO button. B. The APOLOGY button. C. The SAVE button. D. The FORGIVENESS button.
4. We need to click the SAVE button in life because ________.
A. we want to go through the whole process of editing B. we need to learn a lesson from the past mistakes C. we want to make the healing process faster D. we need to use the computer properly |

The Meanings of Dreams Sleep and dreams have interested people for centuries. Scientists are learning more about sleep, but they still know very little about why we dream. 1 First, we have most of our dreams during REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. At this time, the brain is very active. Second, everyone dreams - even if we cannot remember doing so when we awaken. 2 While we are asleep, it works more slowly and sometimes puts our thoughts and memories together in strange ways. 3 Some believe that our dreams are associated with thoughts and feelings that we experience while we are awake. Many dream researchers think that a dream about death, for example, is really about an important life change. 4 Dreams about a car or travel often represent feelings about your own life. Dreams about teeth - especially broken or loose ones may indicate stress and fear. Dreams in which you are flying often represent freedom or escape. Researchers think people in our dreams can tell us something about ourselves. If the person in the dream was yelling (叫喊), for example, maybe you are angry. 5 There is still a lot about dreaming that we do not understand. By learning more about our dreams, we may learn more about ourselves.
A. Dreams may be more important than sleep.![](http://img.shitiku.com.cn/uploads/allimg/20191219/20191219225122-54465.png) B. Scientists do not know for certain why we dream. C. If he or she was terrified, then maybe you are afraid of something. D. Modern research can tell us some important things about dreams. E. There are three things you should pay attention to to have a sweet dream. F. Finally, a part of our brain helps us to understand daily experiences we have. G. Dreams about telephones are thought to be about giving or receiving an important message. |

Honey from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar, it is also delicious. Most people, and many animals, like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees" nest and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper - a little bird called a honey guide. The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax in the beehives (蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees" nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share. Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit. |

About twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film-studio(影棚)to take part in a crowd-scene. Although our "act" would last only for a short time, we could see quite a number of interesting things. We all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene, setting up trees at the edge of a winding path.Very soon, bright lights were turned on and the big movie-camera was wheeled into position. The director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby. Since it was hot in the studio, it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path. A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in "snow". Two more fans were turned on, and a "strong wind" blew through the trees. The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold. The next scene was a complete contrast(对比).The way it was filmed was quite unusual. Pictures taken on an island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen. An actor and actress stood in front of the scene so that they looked as if they were at the water"s edge on an island. By a simple trick like this, palm trees, sandy beaches, and blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio! Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us. For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film "Stars"! |
1. Who is the author? |
A. A cameraman. B. A film director. C. A crowd-scene actor D. A workman for scene setting |
2. What made the author feel cold? |
A. The heavy snowfall. B. The man-made scene. C. The low temperature. D. The film being shown. |
3. What would happen in the "three minutes" mentioned, in the last paragraph? |

When we think about happiness,we usually think of something extraordinary,a pinnacle(顶点)of delight. And those pinnacles seem to get rarer the older we get. 1 I remember playing policemen and robbers in the woods,getting a speaking part in the school play. Of course,kids also experience lows,but their delight at such peaks of pleasure as winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved. For teenagers,or people under 20 the concept of happiness changes. 2 I can still feel the pain of not being invited to a party that almost everyone else was going to. I also remember the great happiness of being invited at another event to dance with a very handsome young man. In adulthood the things that bring great joy-birth,love,marriage also bring responsibility and the risk of loss. 3 For adults,happiness is complex. 4 But I think a better explanation of happiness is"the ability to enjoy something". The more we can enjoy what we have,the happier we are. It"s easy to overlook the pleasure we get from loving and being loved,the company of friends,the freedom to live where we please,even good health. While happiness may be more complex for us,the solution is the same as ever. Happiness isn"t about what happens to us;it"s the ability to find a positive for every negative,and view a difficulty as a challenge. 5
A. Love may not last;loved ones die. B. For a child,happiness has a magic quality. C. Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life. D. Being happy doesn"t mean that everything is perfect. E. The dictionary explains "happy" as "lucky" or "fortunate". F. It"s not wishing for what we don"t have,but enjoying what we do possess. G. Suddenly it"s conditional on such things as excitement,love,and popularity. |
