It was raining like nthing befre when Ehdaa Bujeldain, an English teacher living with her family in the muntains f Derna in eastern Libya , heard a lud nise that sunded like an explsin (爆炸). Later they learned that a dam (大坝) in Derna had brken dwn under the pressure f running water. Fr the next fur days, they had n pwer r internet, and it was nly recently that they started t fully understand f the damage caused by the flds.
“Half f the city has been destryed. My mm’s relatives, my friends, my cwrkers ——they are all gne. Nw we, the survivrs, are just ghst s in shells,” says Bujeldain, whse sadness can be easily tld frm her blank expressin.
Five days have passed since the terrible flding in Derna, Libya’s Red Crescent rganizatin estimated that 11,300 peple have died, while the city’s mayr believes the number f deaths culd be as high as 20,000.
Derna is a castal city with a seasnal river called the Wadi Derna. Despite the abnrmally heavy rain, peple living near the river had little warning befre the fldwaters came rushing in n that terrible mrning. United Natins aid chief Martin Griffiths described the scale f the fld as “appalling” (令人惊骇的) and blamed the fld partly n sudden climate change.
Nw internatinal aid teams are arriving in Derna, but they face challenges due t damaged rads, lack f access t pwer, water, and fuel. Tarhni, dctr f the rescue team, warns that the mst difficult weeks lie ahead. “One disaster is dne and there is anther t cme,” he says. “The thusands and thusands f peple wh lst everything these peple nw need cmfrt, they need cmpany, they need psychlgical supprt.”

Have yu ever wndered why ther peple dn’t see things the same way yu d? Isn’t it cnfusing that yu dn’t necessarily share the same viewpints even when yu cme frm the same family? Why can’t they just see it my way? The scientific explanatin cmes frm cgnitive (认知的) psychlgy; it’s a mental prcess knwn as infrmatin prcessing.
Frm a psychlgical perspective (角度), yu have yur wn values, memries, and quality f emtin. With every event yu experience, the infrmatin cmes in and is filtered (过滤) thrugh yur emtins, memries, and values. Hw yu “see” yurself, thers, and the wrld yu live in will be influenced by what yu’ve experienced r believe t be true. In ther wrds, yu dn’t see things as they are - yu see things as yu are.
Yu have a prcess fr filtering infrmatin and it may seem a bit strange t yu, especially when thers dn’t agree with the same beliefs, thughts, and pinins. What if yu cnsidered, even fr just a mment, that what yu are seeing is nly ne pssibility - and that there are several ther ways t understand a situatin?
In every walk f life, yu find yurself stand up fr what yu believe in, arguing fr hw yu member smething that happened, and trying t influence thers t see things yur way. But what if yu’re missing the imprtant pint that yur differences are what make life clrful? Thse differences are what stimulate (促进) yur mind and emtins. Withut differences, life wuld be dull. There wuld be n “aha” mment if yu knew everything. There wuld be n inspiratin (灵感) in the frm f art, music, petry, style, r cmmunicatin.
There will be times in yur life when yu might have t set limits with ther peple and, at the end f the day, yu want t feel understd and appreciated. Learning t hnr yur viewpints, while thers have their wn is imprtant in a wrld where everyne is different.
12. Which f the fllwing is nt mentined in the text t play a rle in infrmatin prcessing?
A. Experiences.B. Persnalities.C. Memry.D. Emtins.
13. What des the authr suggest yu d when there are different pinins?
A. Insist n yur wn beliefs and values.B. Ignre what things actually are.
C. Listen t and fllw thers’ pinin cmpletely.D. Respect bth yur and thers’ pinins.

A. Psitive.B. Negative.C. Cnfused.D. Surprised.
15. Which is the mst suitable title fr the text?
A. Why Nbdy Understands Yu?B. Hw Cme Yu Are S Unique?
