was time to work harder than ever. i continued working as a waitress at night, instructed tennis camps several mornings a week and worked as a secretary for a few hours in the afternoons. i even decided to take a class at acommunity（社区）college. this class at the community college saved me $650. it was an extremely tiring summer and made me anxious to return to my relatively easy life at the

happened to me.this experience has shaped me in many important ways. the first thing that ilearned was the importance of a strong work ethic (伦理). working long hours did a lot to develop my character

new vistas (前景),create the global villageyou can make new friends all around the world. that,at least,is what it promised us. the difficulty is that it did not take the human mind into account. the reality is that we cannot keep relationships with more than a limited number of people. no matter how hard the internet tries to put you in communication,its best efforts will be defeated by your mind.the problem is twofold (双重的). first,there is a limit on the number of people we can hold in mind and have a meaningful relationship with. that number is about 150 and is set by the size of our brain. second,the quality of your relationships depends on the amount of time you invest (投入) in them. we invest a lot in a small number of people and then distribute whats left among as many others as we can. the problem is that if we invest little time in a person,our engagement with that person will decline (减弱)until eventually it dies into “someone i once knew”.this is not,of course,to say that the internet doesnt serve a socially valuable function. of course it does. but the question is not that it allows you to increase the size of your social circle to include the rest of the world,but that you can keep your relationships with your existing friends going even though you have to move to the other side of the world.in one sense,thats a good thing. but it also has a disadvantage. if you continue to invest in your old friends even though you can no longer see them,then certainly you arent using your time to make new friends where you now live. and i suspect that probably isnt the best use of your time. meaningful relationships are about being able to communicate with each other,face to face. the internet will slow down the rate with which relationships end,but it wont stop that happening eventually.1. what is stressed in the first paragraph?a. the present situation of the internet.b. the difficulty in communication on the internet.c. the socially valuable function of the internet.d. the role of the human mind in the internet communication.2. the underlined word “engagement” in the second paragraph probably means“”.a. appointmentb. connectionc. interviewd. agreement3. according to the passage,the author holds the view that.a. the internet fails to play so valuable a role in communication as it promisedb. the internet determines the quality of social relationshipsc. the internet greatly increases the size of social circlesd. the internet communication is no less effective than the face-to-face talk4. what is the authors attitude towards the use of the internet to strengthen relationships?a. he is uncertain about it. b. he is hopeful of it.c. he approves of it. d. he doubts it.【参考答案】76.1-4 dbad 社会生活类阅读理解。blind imitation(模仿) is self-destruction. to those who do not recognize their unique worth,imitation appears attractive;to those who know their strength,imitation is unacceptable.in the early stages of skill or character development,imitation is helpful. when i first learned to cook,i used recipes(菜谱) and turned out some tasty dishes. but soon i grew bored. why follow someone elses way of cooking when i could create my own?imitating role models is like using training wheels on a childs bicycle;they help you get going,but once you find your own balance,you fly faster and farther without relying on them.in daily life,imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously(下意识地) hold poor role models. if,as a child,you observed people whose lives were bad,you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. if you do not make strong choices for yourself,you will get the results of the weak choices of others.in the field of entertainment,our culture glorifies celebrities. those stars look great on screen. but when they step off screen,their personal lives may be disastrous. if you are going to follow someone,focus on their talent,not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors.blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. think of the movies,books,teachers,and friends that have affected you most deeply. they touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration,not desperation. the world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them,but by those who do what has been done inside them. creative people have an endless resource of ideas. the problem a creator faces is not running out of material;it is what to do with all the material knocking at the door of imagination.study your role models,accept the gifts they have given,and leave behind what does not serve you. then you can say,“i stand on the shoulders of my ancestors tragedies and declare victory,and know that they are cheering me on.”1. imitation proves useful when you.a. know you are uniqueb. lose the balance of lifec. begin to learn something newd. get tired of routine practice2. to avoid the bad result of imitation,we should.a. forget daily fear and pain b. choose the right examplec. ask others for decisions d. stay away from stars3. according to the author,the world moves on because of those who are.a. desperate to influence others with their knowledgeb. ready to turn their original ideas into realityc. eager to discover what their ancestors didd. willing to accept others ideas4. the trouble a creator faces is.a. the lack of strong motivationb. the absence of practical ideasc. how to search for more materialsd. how to use imagination creatively5. what is the authors purpose in writing this passage?a. to highlight the importance of creativity.b. to criticize the characters of role models.c. to compare imitation with creation.d. to explain the meaning of success.【参考答案】75.1-5 cbbda
