Everyone loves the idea of travel——or at least we think we do! All too often, though, we equate(使~~~于)the idea of traveling with touring: a guide with a loudspeaker and a bright yellow flag, photographs, tour buses, bid dinners. Though tourists may visit some new historic landmarks, they probably experience nothing that changes how they interpret the world. They are still very much the same old person.
Traveling or exploring is a whole different feast. We want to see some new stuff————but we want to change ourselves and change how we see the world. Why? How does travel achieve this?
Travel is cathartic. This means that we are able to mature(成熟) as a person through the stress and anxiety, excitement and fear that travel invokes(引起).Culture shock or language barriers or anything can cause this.
Travel is all too human. Perhaps we rely too strongly on spoken language?(Just as language can explain, it can also confuse).Perhaps getting away from language we are finally able to experience different aspects of the human character?(A smile has so many meanings.)
Travel is unprejudiced, Travel can overcome so many of our stereotypes, prejudices(偏见)and ignorant hatreds. In traveling we must face many of our own cultural ideas and then either accept them or discard them. We get to choose how we want to see the world.
Yes, life is journey. Keep learning and keep loving, and remember that being a good person is the greatest success.
40. If we can really travel,_________.
A. we can change the world
B .we can change the historic landmarks
C .we can change ourselves through changing the way in which we see the world.
D. we can only change the way in which we see the world.
41.The author thinks that _________.
A. travel helps us to understand and accept different cultures of different countries.
B. through traveling, we learn a lot about beautiful landmarks.
C. travel helps us to learn foreign language.
D. through traveling, we learn a lot about foreign countries
42. We can infer from the passage that __________.
A. traveling leads to prejudices and ignorant hatreds.
B. if we want to overcome our prejudices, we must always stay where we were born.
C. if we want to overcome our prejudices, we must move to foreign countries.
D. living in the same place leads to prejudices and ignorant hatreds. C
Across China, students are sweating as they prepare for the tough January final exams. Many teenagers write to 21st Century Teens to complain that while they do well in their homework ,they cannot get high marks in their exams. They are wondering why.
In a new study this month, US psychologists(心理学家)think they have found the answer. Their experiment will be published in the February issue of the magazine Psychological Science. It helps people understand what restricts(限制)intellectual performance.
Researchers report that heavy exam pressure is actually more likely to affect the performance of very good students than average ones. Worried about pleasing others, these students can lose their most valuable intellectual weapon: short-term or working memory. This is their ability to recall numbers and thoughts, while focusing on the problem at hand. According to the study, when extra pressure is put on people with good skills, their performance drops off.
In recent years, psychologists have learnt more about short-term memory. It was once thought of as a store like a mental food processor(食品加工机)that helps shape ingredients(配料)while keeping the mind focused on the task at hand.
People with strong working memory skills tend to do well in intellectual ability tests.Their analytical skills and creative thinking depend on this short-term-confused processor.
In the study,researchers tested the working memory of 93 students. They were divided into two groups, with a high and a low working memory.
The students then took two maths tests, under different conditions. One was called a practice test. In the other, the students were told they were part of a team that was depending on them to improve their score in order to win a reward.
The results were striking: the group with high working memory scored about 10% higher than the others on the low-pressure practice test. But the two groups? Scores were about equal when the heat was on to perform.
The study shows how memory performance is affected by fear of failure and the ticking(滴答作响的)clock, according to the scientists.
43. Many gifted students can’t get high marks in the exam because
________.
A. they can’t concentrate.
B. their memory suddenly becomes blank
C. they feel great anxiety that they may fail
D. they can’t fall asleep before exams
44. What’s the function of short-term memory mentioned in the passage?
A. It is a food processor
B. It helps people memorize a lot of things in a short time.
C. Its size determines one’s intellectual performance
D. It enables people to analyze and think creatively.
45. Which of the following is true?
A. People with low working memory do not suffer from high exam pressure.
B. “The ticking clock”mentioned in the last paragraph shows that whether the time limit is proper is also important in tests.
C. Psychologists used to believe short-term memory let people remember things just as they are.
D. Intellectual ability tests only show how well one’s short-term memory works
46. What do we know about the students who took part in the tests?
A.All of them got high scores in the second test.
B.They have good working memory.
C.They felt heavy pressure in the practice test.
D.Fear of failure had a greater effect on some students.
47. What’s the main subject of the story?
A.The relationship between heavy pressure and working memory
B.The reason why heavy exam pressure affects good students more.
C.What is working memory?
D.The recent experiment done on working memory skills.

Americans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of a lift operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?
Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian(平民的)clothes. People have become conditioned to expect higher quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears a uniform is likely to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman,a hairdresser, or a waiter to lose professional identity than to step out of uniform?
Uniforms also have many practical good points. They are often more comfortable and more lasting than civilian clothes.
Primary among the argument against uniforms is their lack of variety and the loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they are likely to think, speak, and act similarly on the job at least.
Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.
48. What surprises us is that Americans_________.
A. think highly of uniforms
B. still judge a man by his clothes
C. less prefer wearing civilian clothes
D. respect a lift operator in uniform
49. People are likely to think that a man in uniform________.
A .suggests quality work B. shows his social position C .appears to be more practical D. looks more fresh and attractive
50. It can be concluded from the passage that___________.
A. people wear uniforms to show their professions
B. people enjoy wearing comfortable uniform
C. the cost of the uniform is acceptable to people
D. people generally trust a person in uniform
51. The underlined sentence tells us that_________.
A. it’s impossible for people with jobs to lose their identity
B. people’s identity can be recognized more easily by their uniforms
C. Nurses and policemen must wear uniforms when working
D. People in those professions act in an easier way without uniforms E
