19、ere used to be a model of how to be a good person. There are all these torrents of passion flowing through you. Your job, as captain of your soul, is to erect dams to keep these passions in check. Your job is to just say no to laziness, lust, greed, drug use and the other sins. These days that model
20、 is out of fashion. You usually cant change your behavior by simply resolving to do something. Knowing what to do is not the same as being able to do it. Your willpower is not like a dam that can block the torrent of self-indulgence. Its more like a muscle, which tires easily. Moreover, youre a soci

22、nge is not simple because many things, even within ourselves, are beyond our direct control. Much of our behavior, for example, is guided by unconscious habits. Researchers at Duke University calculated that more than 40 percent of the actions we take are governed by habit, not actual decisions. Res
23、earchers have also come to understand the structure of habitscue, routine, reward. You can change your own personal habits. If you leave running shorts on the floor at night, thatll be a cue to go running in the morning. Don t try to ignore your afternoon snack craving. Every time you feel the cue f
24、or a snack, insert another routine. Take a walk. Their research thus implies a different character model, which is supposed to manipulate the neural networks inside. To be an effective person, under this model, you are supposed to coolly examine your own unconscious habits, and the habits of those u
25、nder your care. You are supposed to devise strategies to alter the cues and routines. Every relationship becomes slightly manipulative, including your relationship with yourself. Youre trying to arouse certain responses by implanting certain cues. This is a bit disturbing, because the important habi
26、tual neural networks are not formed by mere routine, nor can they be reversed by clever cues. They are burned in by emotion and strengthened by strong yearnings, like the yearnings for admiration and righteousness. If you think you can change your life in a clever way, the way an advertiser can get
27、you to buy an air freshener, youre probably wrong. As the Victorians understood, if you want to change your life, don t just look for a clever cue. Commit to some larger global belief. 56.

Architect Mick Pearce used preci
39、sely the same strategy when designing the Eastgate Building, which has no air-conditioning and almost no heating. The building the country s largest commercial and shopping complexuses less than 10% of the energy of a conventional building of its size. The Eastgate s owners saved $3.5 million on a $
40、36 million building because an air- conditioning plant didn t have to be imported.The complex is actually two buildings linked by bridges across a shady, glass-roofed atrium(天井 ) open to the air. Fans suck fresh air in from the atrium, blow it upstairs through hollow spaces under the floors and from
41、 there into each office through baseboard vents(通风口 ). As it rises and warms, it is drawn out via ceiling vents and finally exists through forty-eight brick chimneys. During summer s cool nights, big fans blow air through the building seven times an hour to cool the empty floors. By day, smaller fan
42、s blow two changes of air an hour through the building, to circulate the air which has been in contact with the cool floors. For winter days, there are small heaters in the vents. This is all possible only because Harare is 1600 feet above sea level, has cloudless skies, little dampness and rapid 精选

A briefing paper from the Brookings Institutionwarns that “ we may have overdone the message” on college, senior fellow Isabel Sawhill s
49、aid. “ We ve been telling students and their families for years that college is the only way to succeed in the economy and of course there s a lot of truth to that,” Ms. Sawhill said. “ On average it does pay off But if you load up on a whole lot of student debt and then you don t graduate, that is
50、a very bad situation.”One comment that people often repeat among the years of slow job growth has been the value of education for landing a job and advancing in a career. April s national unemployment rate stood at 7.5%, according to the Labor Department. The unemployment rate for high-school gradua
51、tes over 25 years old w ho hadn t attended college was 7.4%, compared with 3.9% for those with a bachelor s degree or more education. The difference is even bigger among those aged 16-24. The jobless rate for those with only a high school diploma in that age group is about 20%. At the same time, rec
52、ent research by Canadian economists cautions that a college degree is no guarantee of promising employment. Ms. Sawhill pointed out that among the aspects that affect the value of a college education is the field of one s major: Students in engineering or other sciences end up earning more than ones
53、 who major in the arts or education. The cost of tuition and the availability of financial aid are other considerations, with public institutions generally a better financial bargain than private ones. She suggested two avenues for improving the situation: increasing vocational( 职业的 )-technical trai

59、ite jobs第四部分：任务型阅读 (共 10 小题，每题 1 分，总分值 10 分) Imagine living in a country torn by war. Or maybe you live in a place where there are few jobs and little chance to earn a living. Your family decides to move not to another town, but to another country. You and your family have become immigrants. People
60、are called immigrants when they move to a foreign country to make their homes. People become immigrants for many reasons. The most common one is economic opportunities. Most immigrants are attracted to other countries by the promise of jobs, farmland, or business opportunities. Other people become i
61、mmigrants in order to get away from mistreatment or natural disasters. They are refugees. Some refugees move to avoid wars and political unrest. Others are seeking freedom to express their religious views. Still others are uprooted by disasters, such as terrible flooding or drought. Some people have
62、 become immigrants against their will. Captured in Africa, shipped to foreign lands and forced to work as slaves, many early African immigrants to North and South America came in chains. Except for Native Americans, all people came to the United States from someplace else. For nearly 500 years, immi
63、grants have landed on America s shores seeking a better life. Throughout American history, immigrants often worked low-paying, dangerous jobs that other people refused to do. Immigrants from around the world helped shape American life. Many immigrants absorbed the customs and language common to most
64、 Americans. They also brought their own traditions, including music and foods. Over time, many of these traditions have become part of American life. The first European immigrants to America hoped to colonize new lands. By the mid-1500s, Spaniards had ventured into Florida, California, and the Ameri

They established 13 colonies along America s Atlantic Coast. In the 1700s, England became the major power in colonial North America. But many European immi
66、grants came to live in the English colonies. They included people from Sweden, Holland, Germany, Scotland, and Ireland. Immigrants still come to the United States seeking freedom and economic opportunities. Most new immigrants no longer come from Europe. They come mainly from Central and South Ameri

72、and. The volume of passenger traffic( 客运量 ) reaches its climax before and after the Spring Festival. Especially, the number of those who decide to go back to their hometown by train is increasing rapidly, so it promotes the short of the tickets of passenger train. Luckily, the Ministry of Railways(铁
73、道部 ) has come up with solutions. For instance, it arranges extra trains during the peak time for passenger transport as well as opens 24-hour ticket sales windows for passengers in order to ease the traffic pressure. Moreover, it helps to deliver train tickets to the doorsteps, providing convenience
74、 for passengers. One thing that has to be mentioned this year is about start of selling tickets on-line this year. For one thing, it to some degree shortens the time of purchasing tickets. However, most of the passengers are migrant workers returning home for Spring Festival. They are not familiar w
75、ith the process of buying tickets and as a result cannot buy the tickets on time. What is worse, many computers selling tickets broke down under too much pressure of operation. Therefore, many people blame such a method in that it doesn t suit nowadays situation. 写作内容 1.以约 30 个词概括上文的主要内容。2.以约 120 个词

But this year, with another problem of buying tickets on-lin
79、e appearing, many are dissatisfied. Last year, I, together with my parents, went to our hometown by train. At that time, you can imagine how crowded it was in the railway station and how difficult it was for us to buy a ticket. Worse still, it was raining and we had to wait in queue patiently for ou
80、r turn to buy tickets. This year, things are much better. We can buy tickets through Internet. However, some other problems appear. Reasons for the problems of buying tickets on-line are divided. For migrant workers, lacking the knowledge of handling computers has trapped them into trouble. Also, th
81、e ticket-selling system is not advanced enough to cope with difficult situations. To solve the problem, I suggest that not only should the Ministry of Railways update or better the ticket-selling system regularly but also provide more convenient and easy ways for migrant workers to buy tickets. As for migrant workers, they can learn to purchase their tickets on-line with the help of Internet or co-workers. Choosing other means of transportation to return back is also available. 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 8 页，共 8 页
