The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of ten to twelve feet. Without space to run，as is its habit, it will not even attempt to fly, but remain a prisoner for life in a small jail with no top.The Ordinary bat flying around at night is a remarkable quick-moving creature in the air. But placed on the floor or flat ground, it has to shuffle about helplessly and, no doubt, painfully ，until it reaches some slight elevation from which it can throw itself into the air. Then，at once，it takes off like a flash,A bumblebee if dropped into an open tumbler (平底玻璃杯）will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the top，but keeps trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom.In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat and the bumblebee.

Follow your passion. This piece of advice provides the foundation for modern thinking on career satisfaction. But this can be a problem.Ive spent the past several years researching and writing about the different strategies we use to seek happiness in our work. It became clear early in the process that the suggestion to ” follow your passion was flawed, for it lacks scientific evidence. However, it doesnt mean you should abandon the goal of feeling passionate about your work. The reality emphasizes that things are quite plicated.Passion is earned. Different people are looking for different things in their work, but generally, people with satisfying careers enjoy some bination of the following features: autonomy，respect，petence，creativity，and a sense of impact. In other words，if you want to feel passionate about your livelihood，dont seek the perfect job，but seek to get more of these features in the job you already have.Passion is elusive (难捉摸的）.Many people develop the rare and valuable skills leading to passion , but still end up unhappy in their work.

If youre seeking a dream job, youll end up frustrated, again and again. Dont set out to discover passion. Instead, set out to develop it.

The private preferences we keep, as long as they do not bother with the rights and freedoms of others, are ours to do with as we wish.Children learn this central principle early on and soon bee expert at using it effectively to suit their own purposes. The phrase well, its just my opinion can act as a get-out clause which avoids further questioning or the need to give an explanation. A student may well prefer to put up a brick wall and so avoid the difficult task of providing a justification（正当的理由） for their view.They know the holy position freedom of speech holds for all of us and they know the taboo（禁忌）around challenging the opinions of others when they do not produce unfavorable effects on anyone else.This can make things hard for the teacher. We want to promote tolerance and respect in our classrooms and give young people a sense: this is how one ought to behave. Yet, we are also seeking to develop reasoning and critical thinking. To some extent, there is an idea that peoples views carry equal weight because all individuals ought to be treated equally. Treating peopleequally is different from treating what they say with equal weight, though. We need to make clear to students that the right to ones opinions does not ignore the need to support them with argument when called to do so.Justification is the signal difference between opinion and argument. Opinions are stated;arguments are advanced. Opinions are given; arguments are proposed. When we ask a student to explain themselves, we are asking them to give us something that will lend evidence to what they have said. We are asking them to convince us, to persuade us, to show us the reasonableness of what it is they are saying.64. According to Paragraph 2, if you offer a get-out clause, you may.A. fall into a difficult situationB. escape being questionedC. raise your social positionD. have to further explain your opinion65. The teacher may find it hard to.A. put up a brick wall to avoid giving acceptable reasonsB. challenge the opinions of others to have a deep effect on themC. encourage tolerance and respect while developing reasoning and critical thinkingD. tell the differences between opinion and argument66. The underlined word them in Paragraph 3 refers to .A. studentsB. teachersC. needsD. opinions67. What would be the best title for this passage?A. Everyone is entitled to their opinionB. Never bother with the rights of othersC. “Its just my opinion isnt good enoughD. Treat what people say equally【参考答案】2. 64-67 BCDC阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。Renowned Chinese author Mo Yan has gained many new admirers after winning the xx Nobel Prize for Literature.
