He knew that 36 measures were not enough. “The dogmas (教条) of the37past,” he wrote, “are inadequate to the stormy present. We must think anew, and act anew.” New thought, new action - how simple it sounds and how38it is! Most of us tend to be39by old habits of thought. When crisis threatens, it is all too easy to react as we did before.But great40awaits men and women who can change the pattern of their thinking to meet new challenges. I have41of this in my own experience. When I first left college, I had no42of being a psychiatrist(精神病医生). I taught drama in university. But two years later,43my life, I decided that, much44I enjoyed teaching, what I really wanted to be was a doctor. The45to “act anew” was not easy.

Here are 5 that helped define the national character. Most from a century or so ago, they still entertain, teach and inspire American people.Moby-Dick by Herman MelvilleFirst published in 1851, the book tells the adventure stories of Captain Ahab and his continuous hunting for the white whale and draws us into a universe full of fascinating characters and stories.The Education of Henry Adams by Henry AdamsAwarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1918, the book provides insight into Adams family, including his experience as a private secretary to his father, minister to England during the American Civil War.Leaves of Grass by Walt WhitemanWhen Whiteman published Leaves of Grass in 1855, he wanted to define the American experience sing for the new country in a new voice, reflecting the great changes in the American literary world that had taken place during his lifetime.Poems by Emily DickinsonAn enthusiastic poet whose works have had a considerable influence on modern poetry, Dickinsons frequent use of dashes(破折号)，sporadic(零星的)capitalization of nouns, and unusual metaphors(隐喻) has contributed to her reputation as one of the most innovative poets of the 19th-century American literature.The song of Hiawatha by Henry Wadsworth LongfellowFirst published in 1855, this is Longfellows most popular and most recognized poem, showing the heroic life and death of a magic American Indian sent by the Great Spirit to guide the nations in the ways of peace.56.

As a recent article in The Guardian newspaper noted, “Theres more to understanding a joke in a foreign language than understanding vocabulary and grammar.”Being able to understand local jokes is often seen as an unbelievable ice-breaker for a language learner eager to form friendships with native speakers. “I always felt that humor was a ceiling that I could never break through,” Hannah Ashley, a public relations account manager in London, who once studied Spanish in Madrid, told The Guardian, “I could never speak to people on the same level as I would speak to a native English speaker. I almost came across as quite a boring person because all I could talk about was facts.”In fact, most of the time, jokes are only funny for people who share a cultural background or understand humor in the same way. Chinese-American edian Joe Wong found this out first-hand. He had achieved huge success in the US, but when he returned to China in xx for his first live show in Beijing, he discovered that people didnt think his. Chinese jokes were as funny as his English ones.In Australia, meanwhile many foreigners find understanding jokes about sports to be the biggest headache. “The hardest jokes are related to rugby because I know nothing about rugby,” said Melody Cao, who was once a student in Australia. “When I heard jokes I didnt get, I just laughed along.”In the other two major English-speaking countries, the sense of humor is also different. British edian Simon Pegg believes that while British people use irony (反话)basically, saying something they dont mean to make a jokeevery day, people in the US dont see the point of using it so often. “British jokes tend to be more subtle and dark, while American jokes are more obvious with their meanings, a bit like Americans themselves,” he wrote in The Guardian.58. It is implied in the noted sentence in Paragraph 1 that _. A. making jokes is a possible way for one to learn better a foreign languageB. humor is always conveyed to foreigners through vocabulary and grammarC. vocabulary and grammar help you understand jokes in a foreign language D. there tends to be something behind the words of a joke in a foreign language 59. What can we guess about Hannah Ashley? A. She thinks that Spanish people generally do not have much of a sense of humor.B. She believes that one had better rely on facts when speaking a foreign language.C. She found that humor was a barrier to her getting along well with Spanish people.D. She had a better mand of the Spanish language than of the English language.60. Joe Wong is used as an example to _.A. suggest that there are cultural differences in humorB. show that its hard to put jokes into another languageC. prove that local people have different taste in humorD. show that expressing ability affects the sense of humor61. From the article we can learn that _.A. jokes about sports are difficult for foreigners to understandB. Americans are generally more humorous than British peopleC. not all English native speakers can understand English jokes easilyD. British peoples dark jokes often make people unfortableCBefore boarding the virtual reality roller coaster, riders put on a VR headset across their face. They wont see where the steel track is going, or whats ing up next. As the ride launches into a series of steep drops, banks and loops (环形), riders are involved in high-definition imagery and 360-degree virtual views. Theres even a story lineto follow as theyre screaming their heads off. In the petitive world of who can go higher, faster and deliver more G-forces (离心力), this new kid on the block is making a splash at amusement parks across North America. Next spring, Six Flags will present nine virtual reality roller coasters at its parks in Texas, California, Maryland, and New York. “Its perfect to have this virtual reality technology that gives you the thrilling feeling of being in a different world,” said Thomas Wagner, CEO of VR Coaster, which developed the system for Six Flags, “and to bine it with a coaster that delivers motion (运动), G-forces, zero-gravity momentsits a totally new kind of attraction.” What makes the experience different from 3-D motion simulator (模拟器) rides is that the imagery playing inside the headsets is pletely in sync (同步) with what the physical roller coaster is doing on the track. So while riders are flying amid (在.之间) high-rise buildings in the virtual world, theyre barreling through a corkscrew (拔塞钻) in real life.At Six Flags Magic Mountain outside Los Angeles, VR technology was added to longtime favorite “Revolution” and rebranded as “The New Revolution.” Built in 1976, it was the first looping roller coaster in the world. Today, riders no longer experience a twisting journey through green trees and hills. Instead, theyre knee-deep in a mankind vs. aliens story line. At Six Flags Fiesta Texas in San Antonio, thrill seekers who board the new “Superman: Krypton Coaster Virtual Reality Coaster” are fully involved in the ic-book world of Metropolis. Some skeptical park-goers have questioned whether the VR effects cause motion sickness. “Its crucial to have the virtual reality ride precisely synced to the real ride,” Wagner said, “because otherwise, you would get dizzy and have motion sickness.”“The entire VR industry, especially gaming developers, are fighting with this motion sickness problem. If youre sitting at home in a chair and youre watching this convincing 3-D movement, you get dizzy. But when youre on the coaster, and you actually feel the same movements that you are watching and seeing, you dont.” Of course, “Its still a roller coaster, and its still kind of fierce.” So far, Wagner said, the VR roller coasters have attracted every type of daredevil. “People who are even afraid of coasters like it better in VR, because they feel a little bit safer,” he said, “They dont think a video game environment can harm them in any way.”62. Which helps create a special story line? A. A roller coaster. B. A VR headset. C. High buildings. D. Zero-gravity. 63. When you ride a VR roller coaster, you _. A. can clearly see where the steel track is going B. will experience a series of story-based views C. will suffer from serious motion sickness D. can pose a story line of your own 64. What do the underlined words “making a splash” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. attracting much attention B. taking the lead C. following ones example D. struggling to exist 65. People wont feel motion sickness because _. A. they know it is safe to ride VR roller coasters B. a VR ride is not so fierce as a traditional one C. what they feel keeps pace with what they see D. they are concentrating on a game environmentDOn a warm November day, as a skydiving instructor, I, Sheldon McFarlane, arrived at Perths Jandakot Airport at 7.30am, as I do every morning. Id been really busy doing tandem (串联) jumpswhere the student is attached to me with a harness (安全带)as well as teaching students
