Passage 1
When I gt my first research prject t wrk as an undergraduate, I was s excited that I culd hardly think. My excitement, thugh, was sn cut shrt when my prfessr asked me t write a research paper n the prject. My bdy tensed. Writing was the last thing I wanted t d.
I hated writing in high schl. It felt like wndering in a chatic jungle, unsure where t reach next. My teachers wuld return my papers littered with red.
In cllege, I studied engineering. I tk cmfrt there, knwing bjective truth culd be fund. The prfessr assigned me a prject t imprve the efficiency f an inductr (感应器). I spent weeks setting up a test fr a new design. The results weren’t gd. I kept trying new designs, using the results t brainstrm ideas with researchers. Finally, we had ne. I was verjyed — until my prfessr tld me t write that research paper.
I knew I wuld need t spend time penning papers. In a panic, I asked a graduate student fr help. We defined a gal, and I carefully wrte an utline. But when I asked him fr feedback, I sn fund the paper cvered in red marks. The graduate student explained that red didn’t mean I was a bad writer. Writing isn’t a ne-and-dne thing. It requires revising yur wrk, ften several times. Suddenly it ccurred t me, “Hadn’t I dne the same thing when I was searching fr an efficient inductr design?” I kept refining the utline, eventually turning it int sentences and paragraphs, guided by feedback frm thers. My initial draft wasn’t perfect. But with help, I was finally making my way thrugh the jungle.
Frm then n, writing became ne f my favrite parts f research, and it still is tday. It’s a future I never culd have imagined during my early struggles with English classes. But I came arund. All it tk was sme trial and errr.
1．Why was the authr’s excitement cut shrt when asked t write a research paper?

2．What did the authr d when the test results f a new design were nt gd?

Passage 2
My path was lng t recgnizing my vcatin (职业) , much lnger than it had t be. My parents were prfessrs f engineering. Science was the hrizn f pssibility in my family; nthing else cunted r even existed. N matter hw much I lved t read and write, it never ccurred t me t majr in anything else.
I had been curius abut bilgy and psychlgy in high schl, s when I knew Clumbia ffered a jint majr in the tw fields, I chse it n the spt. The feeling, ther than excitement, was ne f relief. I culdn’t bear the uncertainty that cllege represented. Instead f pening ptins up, I needed t shut them dwn. I had lcked up three-quarters f my curses fr the next fur years, and I hadn’t even gne t a single class.
There was n ne there t stp me. I wuld mpe (消沉) in the back f thse lectures, reading a nvel behind my ntebk, unaware f the fact that I was trying t tell myself smething. I dn’t knw exactly when things went wrng with my chsen curse f study. By the time I realized that I shuld have been an English majr, it was t late t make the switch. I ended up wrking in a tiny nnprfit that meant nthing t me, with n idea where I shuld g next.
And then I happened t be visiting a friend in architecture schl. She wasn’t happy, either; her prgram was way t pretentius and theretical. We were walking alng and she said, “I have t get ut f graduate schl. ” And I immediately thught “I have t g t graduate schl. ” Meaning, I’ll never be happy until I give myself the chance t study English literature after all. Meaning, it’s nt t late - I’m nt ging t let it be t late. Everything was suddenly clear and calm.
It wasn’t easy getting in at that pint. But fr the first time in a lng while, I perfrmed at the tp f my ability. I’d study fr eighty hurs a week and I had never been happier.
5．What family factr (s) influenced the authr’s chice f majr?

6．What did the authr realize at cllege?

7．Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
The authr was determined t get int graduate schl because his friend persuaded him t d s.
Passage 3
Yur Life Is Better Than Yu Think
The undeniable ppularity f self-help bks, wellness pdcasts, and happiness wrkshps reflects the cnstant human desire t make life better. But culd it be that many f ur lives are already better than we recgnize?
While we may have a lving family, a gd place t live, and a decent jb, we ften fail t ntice thse things. It’s nt because we are ungrateful r stupid, but it’s because f a basic feature f ur brain, knwn as habituatin.
Habituatin is the tendency f neurns t fire less and less in respnse t things that are cnstant. Yu enter a rm filled with rses and after a shrt while, yu cannt detect their scent any lnger; and just as yu get used t the smell f fresh flwers, yu als get used t a lving relatinship, t a prmtin, t a nice hme, t a wnderful wrk f art. Like the frnt page f a daily newspaper, yur brain cares abut what recently changed, nt abut what remained the same. And s, what nce tk yur breath away becmes part f life’s furniture. Yu habituate t it — yu fail t ntice and respnd t elements f yur life which yu previusly fund amazing.
The gd news is that yu can dishabituate. That is, yu can suddenly start perceiving and respnding t things t which yu have becme desensitized.
The key is taking small breaks frm yur daily life. Fr example, when peple return hme frm a lng business trip, they ften find their ld life has “reshined.” Ordinary things suddenly seem amazing. If smething is cnstant, we ften assume (perhaps uncnsciusly)that it is there t stay, and as a result, we fcus ur attentin and effrt n the next thing n ur list. But if we can make the cnstant less s, ur attentin will naturally turn back t it. If it is gd at its cre, it may just reshine. This is why time away, hwever shrt, will enable yu t perceive yur life with fresh eyes — and t break up reality.
9．Why d we ften fail t ntice the gd things in ur lives?

10．What is the key t dishabituating?

11．Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
If smething is cnstant and gd at its cre, it will reshine and we may fcus ur attentin and effrt n it.

Passage 4
It’s imprtant t write dwn nt nly what yur gals are, but als when, where and hw yu’ll accmplish them. Mst f us assume thse superachievers wh are always able t eat healthy fds and pick their kids up n time must have superhuman self-cntrl. But science pints t a different answer: What we mistake fr willpwer is ften a hallmark f habit.
Peple with gd habits rarely need t resist the temptatin t lie n the cuch, rder unhealthy takeut r delay n assignments. That’s because they have established gd habits, with little t n willpwer required t chse wisely.
Sunds great, right? The nly prblem is that building gd habits takes effrt and insight. Thankfully, here are a few research-backed steps surced frm my bk, “Hw t Change,” that can help yu develp gd habits.
Set a specific gal. The way yu define the gal yu hpe t turn int a habit des matter. Gals such as “Memrize wrds regularly” are t abstract, research has shwn. Als, yu shuld find the right kind f scial supprt. Gd habits are cntagius, s try t catch sme habits by hanging ut with peple wh are a little ahead f yu n the learning curve. It’s imprtant nt t get t crazy — if yu try t train with marathners when yu’re just hping t wrk up t a 5K, I’ve fund it can be discuraging.
One last thing t keep in mind is that habits can take sme time t frm. They dn’t click vernight. Despite claims that there’s a “magic number” f days it takes t frm a habit, I have disprven this myth in my recent research.
13．What d we mistake fr willpwer?

14．Why d peple with gd habits rarely need t resist the temptatin?

15．Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
> T catch sme habits, yu can hang ut with peple wh are a little behind yu n the learning curve.

Passage 5
I smile as sn as I am greeted by the barista (咖啡师) wh knws my name and rder. As I head t a table, latte in hand, I feel a lightness in my step. This is a feeling yu might experience in yur daily life as well. Chances are, there are peple yu cme int cntact with daily, wh yu may nt knw well but can put a smile n yur face.
Peple like this are called “cnsequential strangers”. They culd be the neighbr yu chat t r even the persn yu regularly make small talk with at the gym. Typically, ur lives feature many cnsequential strangers. We may nly knw sme f them fr a shrt time, whereas thers may becme lngstanding parts f ur lives.
Like me, cunsellr Tina Chummun has fund that the barista she sees regularly is an imprtant cnsequential stranger t her. “I trust the feedback frm the barista because she has a cmpletely different perspective f me,” she explains. Cnsequential strangers can give us a space t talk abut things that perhaps we dn’t with ther peple in ur lives, and t hear alternative perspectives. These interactins are emtinally beneficial as well: the cnsequential strangers in my life nt nly help me feel a strnger sense f belnging t my cmmunity but als help with lneliness. And sme f these cnnectins culd ptentially becme supprtive relatinships we can turn t fr help.
“There are many ways that yu can apprach strangers and start cnversatins,” says Tina. “If yu’re at a train statin waiting fr a train, yu can strike up a cnversatin abut hw annying the delay is.” Yu may find that this brings yu int a fuller cnversatin, but even if yu nly have a fleeting exchange with smene, this is a great way t build yur cnfidence. Of curse, nt every cnsequential stranger is ging t becme a gd friend and that’s OK. Still, they are a valuable part f yur life, able t make yu smile and feel a sense f cnnectin. And that in itself is well wrth celebrating.
17．What kind f peple des the term “cnsequential strangers” refer t?

18．Hw d cnsequential strangers cntribute t the authr’s emtinal well-being?

19．Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
Having cnsequential strangers is well wrth celebrating as they are ging t becme yur gd friends.

Passage 1
Earlier this year, I was lking fr part-time wrk. Mnmilk, a cake and ice cream shp nearby, was hiring, s I went in fr a trial shift. I practised scping (舀) ice cream fr 20 minutes and talked t the manager fr 40 minutes abut ur favurite pizza spts. I immediately knew this place was special. While I riginally just set ut t earn sme extra mney during the summer, the bnds and memries I made there turned ut t be mre valuable than any paycheck.
Once, a man wh wrks fr the unin f the lcal mvie theatre came in t place an rder. He wanted a cake t celebrate a victry he’ d had in stpping the theatre frm being evicted (驱逐) by its landlrd. Mnmilk’s wner was tuched by the stry and refused payment fr the cake. Later, the unin leader— s mved by the gesture— delivered free mvie tickets t Mnmilk staff.
The lder wmen custmers are amng my favurites. They have a way f making yu feel at ease; they ften wnder if I’m kay and tell me I lk tired. One regular, always alne and smiling, is kind and generus, rdering methdically (有条不紊地) and always declaring we have the best ice cream in the city.
There’s als the guy wh cmes in frequently t ask if we have the chclate range flavur— that we nly ever have at Christmas. I always have t say n, but his persistence brings me jy, especially n days when I’m tired.
As with any jb, there are unpleasant mments. My wrist ften hurts frm repeatedly scping ut ice cream, and it’s always annying when a grup f peple cme in and take way t lng t rder, hlding up all the thers waiting.
In the fall, my full-time jb’s schedule becmes mre demanding and I knw I’ll have t scale back my shifts. I’ll miss the busyness f the summer seasn and will run int my favurite custmers less ften. The winter mnths are lng and the wner has spken abut days when nly three peple cme in.
But my experience wrking at this ppular spt has helped me feel mre cnnected t my lcal cmmunity. The interactins and cnnectins I’ve made will sustain me until at least next summer. Hpefully, the range chclate ice cream has returned by then.

Ry Austin first experienced an African adventure in 2018. All he wanted t d was get clse t sme African wildlife. Althugh Ry did realize this dream, he fund smething even mre meaningful in Africa.
Ry spent time in many cuntries thrughut East Africa. He was mst interested in the peple f rural (农村的) Kenya, especially peple f the Ambseli Primary and Secndary Schl.

In rural Kenya, schl buildings are nt built by the gvernment. Students, their parents, and teachers find materials and build the schls themselves, r they have t raise mney t get builders’ help. Withut schls, buildings like libraries and classrms are just dreams. The students and teachers f the schls very much wanted a library r at least sme bks t read.
After returning hme t Suth Carlina in the United States, the Kenyan students’ yearning fr smething as seemingly “basic” as bks t read still wrried Ry. He decided t d whatever he culd t help these children. S he started the rganizatin Libraries fr Kids Internatinal.
Since it was started, Ry has shipped ver 11,000 bks t 11 schls in African cuntries, including Kenya and Tanzania. T keep csts dwn, he uses the pst ffice t send the bks instead f a carrier like FedEx. The rganizatin has helped t supply these schls with much-needed bks, which brught Ry much happiness. He plans t cntinue shipping bks t Africa.

Passage 3
Smetimes when it feels like things are falling apart, they may actually be falling int place. This is exactly the case fr Hlly Smith, 34, frm Surrey, when she lst her jb tw years ag.
At the beginning f 2020, Hlly was wrking as a general manager fr a small independent bakery business in Surrey. She had been there six years and culdn’t believe it when they tld her she had t pack up her bags and leave. Being made redundant came as a huge shck fr her and she panicked abut struggling t pay the bills and finding anther jb during such a difficult time.
Hlly didn’t knw where t turn initially, but she was determined t find a silver lining, s she picked up a paintbrush and began t paint. Hlly painted a prtrait f her parent’s dg, a Spinne Italian named Bailey, and shared the image nline. Straight after, a few friends requested their wn pet paintings and sn her career tk ff.
Hlly named her business Hlly & Murphy, after her special five-year-ld ccker spaniel, Murphy. She is ften at her mst creative when she’s flating n water, tgether with her furry cmpanin in her bat.

Sme f the mst memrable paintings she has been asked t d are f dgs that have passed away. Her dg prtraits start at £295 and can cst up t £595.
“When it first happened, it felt like the end f the wrld,” Hlly, a current full-time painter and business wner, tld The Mirrr, “but it was the best thing that ever happened t me. And I’m s grateful t have a jb that I lve.”

Awake frm a shrt sleep in her chair, my grandmther ran her fingers thrugh her wavy white hair, lked ut her windw at the blue sky, and asked me what I wuld wish fr if I had just ne wish.
She ften asks this, and I always answer the same way—“T have Granddad back” —which usually gets her reminiscing abut him. Memries f their 67-year life tgether wuld always make her smile.
My grandmther was brn in Ireland. In her teens, she mved t a pr village in England. At 28, my grandmther walked herself thrugh the snw t birth her first child. When she was 50, she survived an emergency surgery. In her 60s, she suffered frm arthritis(关节炎)but still managed t climb Snwdn, Wales’s tallest peak.
Abut a decade ag, I nticed that she began t lse her hearing. If I asked what she had fr lunch, she might say, “Oh, the weather has been lvely tday. ” She seemed t recycle the same handful f answers t my questins.
In recent years, I’ve been trying t shw up fr her mre, in persn. One day after I made us cffee, I asked her: “What’s the secret t being successful in yur 90s? ”
“Oh Richard, s many peple are ld at 60. They just want t sit all day. Yu wn’t make it t 90 like that. Yu have t try. ”
“Try what? ”
“Try walking, ” she said. “Try gardening. Try cking. Trying desn’t require a lt f trying. Just try a little . Like, with this cffee yu’ve made us. I knw yu tried . ”

Passage 1
MACQUARIE ISLAND: frm Chas t Cnservatin
I am standing n Macquarie Island, in the Suth-west Pacific Ocean, halfway between Australia and Antarctica. Strng winds and strmy seas have helped sculpt its lng, thin shape. The green grass and bare rck f its landscape cntrast dramatically, giving it a wild and natural beauty. N visitr wuld think it surprising that the island is a UNESCO Wrld Heritage Site. Nr wuld they fail t imagine hw its native inhabitants, including ryal penguins, king penguins, and elephant seals, existed in perfect harmny with their natural habitat fr thusands f years.
But the island’s mre recent histry tells a different stry. It’s a tragic stry that began in 1810 when humans arrived n the island. In their ships they unknwingly brught rats and mice. These small animals quickly tk ver the island, eating the birds’ eggs and attacking baby birds. Cats were brught t the island t cntrl the rats and mice. Unfrtunately, the cats subsequently develped an appetite fr the birds, t.
Meanwhile, rabbits were intrduced t the island as a surce f fd fr humans. Lse n the island, they did what rabbits d best–they multiplied rapidly and began eating the native vegetatin and digging hles, which caused sil ersin. The explding rabbit ppulatin prvided plentiful fd fr the cats, meaning that the number f cats als increased. This in turn led t mre cats hunting the birds. The end result was that parakeets, nce large in number and native t the island, died ut in 1891.
Even after Macquarie Island became an fficial nature reserve in the 1970s, the rabbits remained ut f cntrl. Experts felt it necessary t cme up with a plan t remve all the rabbits frm the island. With this gal in mind, a virus was released nt the island. But althugh the virus caused the rabbit ppulatin t decrease frm 130,000 t arund 10,000, it als meant less fd fr the cats. The cats in cnsequence turned their attentin–and their stmachs–back t the native birds, killing up t 60,000 each year. In the 1980s, traps and dgs were used t catch the cats. The last Macquarie Island cat was caught in 2000.
But as the saying ges, “While the cat’s away, the mice will play.” With the departure f the cats frm the island, the muse and rat ppulatin started t increase. And remember thse 10,000 r s rabbits? It turned ut that they develped an immunity t the virus, and their numbers explded nce again. Then, in 2006, the rabbits’ digging caused sme land t cllapse, and killed a substantial number f penguins. This incident made it clear that the rat, muse and rabbit prblem needed slving nce and fr all.
S, I am here n Macquarie Island t participate in the prgramme t tackle this very prblem. The first step invlved pisn being drpped frm helicpters. The next step is t remve the last remaining invading species, and that’s where I cme in–with my dgs. They have been trained t find every last ne, withut harming the native animals. This interventin is a lng, much-delayed ending t a sad stry, but we humans we it t the island t give it a happy ending.
1．What is yur understanding f “…we humans we it t the island t give it a happy ending”?

2．D yu think it was right t eradicate the “pests” frm Macquarie Island? Give yur reasns.

3．Hw culd similar situatins be avided in the future?

Passage 2
When I was a kid, there was nly ne way my parents wuld let me stay hme frm schl and that was if l had a high fever. Mst f my friends culd stay hme due t a stmachache r a mild fever—but nt me…I had t be dying in rder t stay hme. By the way, my parents are bth dctrs. My parents used t say that they were teaching me hw t have a gd wrk ethic(职业道德). I didn't understand the cnnectin until last week.
The ther day I was n the train and sat behind a yung man wh was cmplaining t his friend abut his life. He went n fr twenty minutes abut hw his passin in life was t make mvies, but he wuldn't pursue it because he had n clue if he culd make enugh mney and he didn't want t waste time because it wuld take years t make it big. He then admitted t thinking abut buying stcks(股票)by brrwing mney because he thught he culd easily make six figures within ne year. His friend agreed with him and said, "The stck is gd because yu can make tns f mney and nly wrk fr a shrt time."
I think they were indulging(沉溺)in the wildest fantasy. Many peple these days dn't realize that when things seem t happen immediately, it is nly because a lt f effrt, determinatin and time have gne int them and it isn't due t sme miraculus(不可思议的)event. The easier it lks, the mre hurs g int it. There is n excuse fr laziness.
Lking at the tw yung men, all f a sudden I was having a flashback f being ten years ld and watching the televisin shw Fame.
In the shw the dance teacher tld her students, "If yu want fame, fame csts and here's hw yu start paying fr it…sweat." Every time we watched that shw, my dad wuld prudly say hw right the teacher was because in rder t succeed yu have t wrk hard.

Passage 3
Clin Mre, a 16-year-ld ftball player, may nt leap t the tp f the headlines, but his stry is as inspiring as any sprts tale. On the field, Clin plays just as hard as the ther players, and yu can’t tell the difference because f his arm. Hwever, what sets him apart is his remarkable ability t cmpete withut a cmplete right arm. Brn withut the lwer part f his right arm, Clin has never let his physical difference stand in the way f his dreams r his lve fr ftball. His persnal mtt, “mind f steel, heart f gld,” shws his strng determinatin t mve frward n matter what challenges he faces.
The challenges Clin faces are unique, but he uses them t push himself even harder. He has always been cmmitted t wrking twice as hard as anyne else t ensure his success. His gal t becme a starting center, a psitin that requires a lt f strength, shws hw strng and determined he is. Even thugh he is missing an arm, he makes up fr it with his fast mvements and strength, making him the perfect chice fr this psitin.
Clin’s hard wrk paid ff when he achieved his dream f becming the starting center fr his high schl team. During the champinship game, Clin’s team fund themselves behind by tw tuchdwns (触地得分) in the secnd half. The atmsphere was tense, and dubts started t appear. But it was Clin’s strng spirit that helped turn things arund. With great determinatin, he encuraged his teammates, reminding them f their training and hw imprtant it was t wrk tgether.
Using his quick mvements and skills, Clin made impressive plays, weaving thrugh defenders and delivering accurate passes. His leadership inspired the entire team. In a critical mment, he made a bld mve that nt nly scred a tuchdwn but als energized his teammates. They fught back with renewed strength, ultimately defeating their ppnents and winning the champinship title. The victry was a result f hard wrk, determinatin, and Clin’s strng spirit.
Clin’s cach, Frank Hlmes, cmmends Clin’s perseverance. “Clin was brn with challenges, but every day he maintains a psitive attitude and fcuses fully n his training,” says Hlmes. “His hard wrk is the evidence t his character.”

Passage 4
We all lve t criticize, but unfrtunately, we als hate being criticized. We freely pst and cmment n thers, but feel annyed at the way thers assess us, bth nline and in persn. The wrld seems unlikely t change anytime sn. Frtunately, thugh, each f us can change hw we give and take criticism, which will make us less likely t harm thers, mre resistant t being angry, and better able t benefit frm feedback — even when it is negative.
Criticism is defined as judgment f the merits (优点) and faults f smething r smene in written r spken frm. Technically, criticism can include praise, but that isn’t what cncerns us here. What annys us is criticism f the negative variety, even when well-intentined — s-called cnstructive criticism, which means t prvide guidance s we can imprve. Wrst f all is destructive criticism, which aims t cause hurt r damage.
The culture f criticism isn’t ging away. The nly way t flurish (繁荣) in it, and despite it, is t adpt new habits f getting and giving critical feedback. One rule is t assume that criticism, even when it seems persnal, is nt actually abut yu persnally. When we receive criticism, we make it persnal in tw ways. First, we may naturally analyze the critic rather than the criticism. Secnd, we tend t cnsider the criticism a judgment n ur natural abilities, rather than n ur perfrmance. Interestingly, even amng yung children, research shws that viewing criticism as a judgment n ne’s abilities can lead t lwer self-wrth, lwer psitive md, and less persistence at tasks.
If taking criticism is particularly hard fr yu, yu are nt alne. Hwever, taking criticism badly is mre embarrassing, ultimately, than the criticism itself. If we d the wrk t learn t accept negative feedback, we will be much better ff.
13．Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
Children wh receive criticism have lwer self-wrth because they take criticism as a judgment n their perfrmance.

When it cmes t New Yrk City, mst peple prbably picture in their minds the attractive lifestyles f the rich and famus r think f Bradway, Times Square and ther turist attractins. Hwever, there is anther side f New Yrk City that is far less knwn. The summer after tenth grade, I went with my grup n a missin trip t New Yrk City fr a week.
I had always knwn the existence f pverty in majr cities, but I had never seen it t a degree as high as we did there. We wrked at several different lcatins with ur small grups. One day, we served at a sup kitchen and what I saw astunded me. I culdn’t believe my eyes. We saw peple frm all walks f life. We met peple wh came there because they had n jb, n hme and n mney. Anther day, we vlunteered at a hmeless shelter. We helped peple there d sme cleaning and spent time talking t them and listening t their stries. It was incredible t see hw thankful they were t us fr just spending a cuple f hurs talking t them, r just be listening.
Every persn we met n that trip had a unique stry, and they were surprisingly willing t share. They were just in s much need t be listened t. Besides, whatever their stries were, there was a cmmn thread we saw in them—hpe. These were peple wh had nthing and yet they were s hpeful abut their future.
My experience during that summer changed my life. I used t picture my future as cntaining a big huse, fancy cars and a lt f mney, but nw I see my future differently. I hpe it will be ne where I can be helpful t thers and give back t sciety. After cllege, I wuld really like t wrk fr sme srt f glbal aid rganizatin that deals with the scial issues, such as pverty and hmelessness.

Passage 2
These days, it’s nt unusual t see middle-aged men cllecting Star Wars actin figures, r celebrities like David Beckham playing with Leg bricks. It’s becming mre and mre cmmn t see adult taking an interest in tys, cmic bks and the activities that are traditinally assciated with children. This phenmenn has given rise t a new wrd: kidult.
What lies behind the phenmenn? One is abut adults’ nstalgia (怀旧) fr the carefree days f childhd, and this is especially true with tday’s fast-paced, stressful lifestyles. Anther is abut a scietal change in recent decades where peple are starting families later. As a result, they have mre time and mney t spend n themselves. Sme adults culd nly windw-shp fr their dream tys when they were kids, but nw they can affrd that radi-cntrlled car r high-priced dll they have always wanted.
Kidults tend t have a great fndness fr cartns, superheres and cllectins that remind them f their childhd. They buy tys that might typically be cnsidered “fr kids”. Hwever, in recent years, ty makers have created prduct lines just fr these cnsumers, realizing that demand is high fr this generatin f adults wh still want t have fun.
Sciety traditinally disapprves f adults wh refuse t put aside childhd interests, viewing that kidults are suffering frm the pp-psychlgy cncept knwn as Peter Pan Syndrme, an anmaly (异常) that peple remain emtinally at the level f teenagers. Frm the standpint f kids, thugh, they insist that their refusal t cnfrm t sciety’s acceptable tastes shws independent thinking.

Passage 4
Yur quest fr success and happiness begins with right intentins. It culminates (达到顶点) when yu reach yur chsen gals. What sustains yur effrt in between is yur determinatin. What carries yu twards yur gals is yur determinatin. It means the firmness f purpse r intentin.
If there is ne gift that yu can give t yurself in yur life t be what yu want t be, it is the pwer f determinatin. Withut it yu are a mere passive spectatr in the drama f yur life. If there is ne quality that makes a difference between a winner and a lser r a leader and a fllwer, it is the pwer f determinatin. Withut it, yu may dream wild dreams, but yu will nt accmplish much in life. If yu have determinatin, nthing can stp yu and prevent yu frm fllwing yur curse f actin t achieve yur gals r realize yur dreams.
Obstacles may arise and bstruct yur prgress. They may delay yur success, disturb yu temprarily, and may even mislead yu, but they cannt withstand the pwer f determinatin. It is the pwer that yu generate within yurself t remain cmmitted t yur path and belief, and march twards yur cherished gals. Befre yu take up any prject r gal, yu shuld knw whether yu have the determinatin t stick t yur plans and reach yur gals. Determinatin is yur inner strength. Like the hardwd inside a tree, it gives yu the pwer t stand tall and face the winds f turmil.
With determinatin, yu can crush the muntains f fear and dubts in yu! Yu can find yur way thrugh the mst difficult situatins. Determinatin des nt mean yu will be insensitive t the reality f the situatin. A determined persn is als an adaptable and flexible persn. He is nt interested in being tugh fr tughness sake, but t vercme bstacles and reach his gals. Hence, he remains pen-minded abut pssibilities and pprtunities, but firm in his cmmitment (忠诚) and belief. Discipline and determinatin g tgether. If yu have them, yu will becme unstppable.

Passage 5
The wrld is mving s fast these days that if yu d nt have the right educatin, yu culd get left behind. Technlgy tuches every part f ur daily lives- even the fast fd industry relies n cmputer assisted systems t speed things t their custmers. If yu cannt figure ut the cmputer at yur lcal fast fd shp, where will that leave yu?
Once upn a time, yu culd have a gd life with nthing mre than a high schl diplma, but thse times are gne nw. Cmpetitin fr even the lwest level jbs is fierce, and mst emplyers will give the edge t that extra educatin nw. Jbs that never required a degree befre nw will certainly be given t the mst educated candidate as markets grw tighter and tighter.
Educatin is nt nly imprtant n the jb frnt, hwever. Recent studies shw that cntinually -learning will keep yur brain mre healthy. The mre active yu keep yur brain nw, the mre active it will remain in the Yng run. It des make sense if yu think abut it: if yu start jgging, yur bdy feels healthier after a while and will actually lng fr exercise. The same culd prbably be said fr yur brain: make it wrk t learn smething new, and it will cntinually seek ut the stimulatin(刺激) f new infrmatin t keep itself sharp.
Educatin is imprtant fr yur sense f self and self-esteem. If yu allw yurself t think that yu are prly educated, yu therefre deserve an ld car, small huse and pr life. Stp feeling srry fr yurself and take charge f yur wn fate. Realize that yu are a different persn nw and evaluate why yu did s prly in the past. Was it because yu just culd nt learn, r because yu did nt want t fcus n yur educatin at that time? Yu are an adult nw and will be mre fcused and gal driven. Never say n t educatin, never say n t yurself.

Grwing up, I idealised independence. I always wanted my wn effrts t be enugh. When I decided t pursue a pstgraduate degree, I wanted t develp a nvel research prgramme and quickly establish myself as an independent scientist. But I was unrealistically ptimistic abut what I culd achieve.
As I began designing experiments, my cmmittee members warned me abut the challenges I wuld face. But my need fr independence drve me t push frward with my research plan. As a result, the first fur years f my pstgraduate career were defined by a series f failures.
During my secnd year, I failed my cmprehensive exam because my prpsal was unclear. During my third year, I discvered that after treating thusands f seeds, I btained just ne plant I culd use fr experiments. By my furth year, my desperatin t succeed vershadwed my desire fr independence.
My adviser and I devised (想出) a smewhat unusual slutin: I wuld spend three mnths in a cllabrating (合作的) lab t btain specialised training. I wrked extensively with ther students, cnstantly asked questins, and helped with nging prjects t learn everything I culd. Finally, I cnducted an elegant experiment that wuld nt have been pssible withut the help f the members in the lab.
My adviser saw this experience as a grundbreaking success, emphasising the cllabrating skills I acquired. A few mnths later, when I repeated the experiment in my hme lab, I prduced mre publishable data. By learning when t ask fr help, I eventually fund myself n the way t becming an independent scientist.

Habit frmatin is the prcess by which behaviurs becme autmatic. Peple develp cuntless habits as they explre the wrld, whether they are aware f them r nt. Understanding hw habits take shape may be helpful in changing bad habits.
Habits are built thrugh learning and repetitin. A persn is thught t develp a habit in the curse f pursuing gals by beginning t assciate certain cues(刺激) with behaviural respnses that help meet the gal. Over time, thughts f the behaviur and ultimately the behaviur itself are likely t be triggered(触发) by these cues.
A “habit lp(环)” is a way f describing several related elements that prduce habits. These elements are called the cue, the rutine, and the reward. Fr example, stress culd serve as a cue that ne respnds t by eating, which prduces the reward﹣the reductin f stress. While a rutine invlves repeated behaviur, it’s nt necessarily perfrmed in respnse t a deep﹣rted urge, as a habit is.
Old habits can be difficult t shake, and healthy habits are ften harder t develp. But thrugh repetitin, it’s pssible t frm new habits. The amunt f time needed t build a habit will depend n multiple factrs, including the individual and the intended behaviur. While yu are able t pickup a new habit in a few weeks, it takes many mnths t build a healthy habit. Take sme time t think abut what leads t bad habits and re﹣evaluate what yu get ut f them (r dn’t). Cnsider and keep in mind why yu want t make a change, including hw the change reflects yur values.
