Run for Class President

Two months ago, when our class election(

选举

) started, I decided to run for class

president. I enjoyed speaking in public and got along well with people, so I felt it easy to

win. But I was

13

that people would feel bad for me if I lost.

I was busy preparing in the following week. My plan wasn

’

t to make promises to do

things I couldn

’

t

14

but to show my class why I wanted to be president. I put up my

posters

in

hallways

and

in

the

classroom.

I

also

spent

three

hours

writing

my

speech,

saying that I was the one they could turn to whenever they had a problem. Since I was

15

prepared, I felt that

my chances of winning were strong.

However, when I gave my speech on Election Day, the response(

16

. Few people

actually listened. When it was my oppoent

s(

) turn, everyone was screaming his name. His speech was short,

but all to the point. By then, I realized I should have made mine shorter and clearer.

It was obvious who would

17

. For the rest of the day, I felt like it was over. I wanted to just go home and

cry, but I made it through.

My

18

was right: I didn

’

t win.

The next day, people were still talking about the election. I just pretended(

假装

) not to hear. But later, things

got better. People

19

about the election and talked to me just as they did before.

I don

t regret putting time and energy into the election because I

’

ve learned that things aren

t always going the

way I expect. And moments of failure like this build

Blue Lightning

Sally loved cars more than anything else. This spring she thought of building a

go-

kart to enter for the Go-

Go Race. So she asked her dad for help.

“Well

，

” he said. “How about this: you do some research first and then come

back to me with a design.”

A

week

later,

Sally

brought

her

notes

and

drawings

to Dad.

She

named

her

go?kart

“Blue

Lightning”. Dad

looked over her work, thinking. “Well, that’

s interesting

，

”he said. “Have a try. Just build Blue Lightning as you’

ve

designed.”

Over three weekends of hard work, Sally turned her design into a real, working go-

kart and painted it light

blue. Dad asked her to take it for a test drive. Sally agreed.

After s

he did that, Sally drove back to Dad. “Well

，

” she said. “Now I know why you wanted me to have a test

drive.”

“Oh, do you

？

” he said. “Please share.”

“When I drove fast, there was a lot of pushback

，

” she said. “I think it’

s because of the lightning bolt(

闪电

)

shape.”

“Very good

！

” Dad said.

“So, why didn’

t you tell me about that problem in the first place

？

” Sally asked.

Dad laughed. “Where’

s the fun in that? if you give a man a fish, he

’

ll eat for a day. But if you teach a man to

fish, he

’ll eat for a lifetime.”

Sally said, “I see. Anyway, designing is half the fun

！

”

Dad smiled. “Good. Sometimes, learning happens during the process. We learn how to do something right by

doing it a few times first and making mistakes along the way.”

That encouraged Sally and she worked even harder. When she showed Dad her new go-

kart, he nodded with

pride.

Finally came the race. Sally wasn

’

t worried about whether she would win-

in her mind, she had already won,

by building something better than ever before.

24. Sally thought of building a go-

kart to________

．

A. practice driving

’

s dad ask her to do after she built the go-

kart?

’

s story mainly tells us that ________

D. learning happens during the process

Sometimes it seems that time is flying. Perhaps it doesn

’

t need to feel this way. Our experience of time can be

possibly

changed.

By

understanding

the

psychological(

心理学的

)processes

behind

our

different

experiences

of

time, we might be able to slow down time a little.

One

basic

law

of

psychological

time

is

that

time

seems

to

slow

down

when

we

’

re

exposed(

接触

)

to

new

—

4

—

environments

and

experiences.

The

law

is

caused

by

the

relationship

between

our

experience

of

time

and

the

amount of information our minds process. The more information our minds take in, the slower time seems to pass.

It follows, then, that we have different experiences of time in different situations. In some situations, our life is

full of new experiences. Our minds process a lot of information and time seems to slow down. In other situations,

we have fewer new experiences and the world around us becomes more and more familiar(

熟悉的

). We become

insensitive to our experience, which means we process less information, and time seems to speed up.

How can we slow down time? Here are two suggestions.

Firstly,

since

we

know

that

familiarity

makes

time

pass

faster,

we

can

expose

ourselves

to

as

many

new

experiences as possible. We can give ourselves new challenges, meet new people, and expose our minds to new

information, hobbies and skills. This will increase the amount of information our minds process and expand(

增加

)

our experience of time.

Secondly, and perhaps most effectively, we can give our whole attention to an experience

－

to what we are

seeing, feeling, tasting, smelling or hearing. This means living through our senses rather than through our thoughts.

For example, on the way home, focus your attention outside of yourself, instead of thinking about the problems you

have to deal with. Look at the sky, or at the buildings you pass, traveling among them. This open attitude to your

experiences helps take in more information and also has a time

－

expanding effect.

To a certain degree, we can understand and control our experience of time passing. It

’

s possible for us to slow

down time by expanding our experience of time.

27. According to the writer, we can expand our experience of time by________

．

A. going to bed on time

C. having dinner as usual

B. traveling to new places

D. printing the same materials

28. What can we learn from the passage?

A. Being familiar with the world around helps us get more information.

B. Understanding psychological time makes life pass more quickly.

C. We can take in more information by living through our senses.

D. We should build a stronger relationship between time and us.

29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. Slow Down Time

C. Race Against Time

B. Only Time Will Tell

D. Time Will Not Come Twice

D

How Much Can We Afford to Forget?

In 2018,

Science

magazine asked some young scientists what schools should teach

students. Most said students should spend less time memorizing facts and have more space

for creative activities. As the Internet grows more powerful, students can access(

获得

)

knowledge easily. Why should they be required to carry so much of it around in their heads?
