the meaning of life?”the usual laughter followed, and people stirred to go. papaderos held up his hand and stilled the room and looked at me for a long time, asking with his eyes if i was serious and seeing from my eyes that i was.“i will answer your question.”taking his wallet out of his hip pocket, he fished into a leather billfold and brought out a very small round mirror, about the size of a quarter. and what he said went like this:“when i was a small child, during the war, we were very poor and we lived in a remote village. one day, on the road, i found the broken pieces of a mirror. a german motorcycle had been wrecked in that place.i tried to find all the pieces put them together, but it was not possible, so i kept only the largest piece. this one, and, by scratching it on a stone, i made it round. i began to play with it as a toy and became fascinated by the fact that i could reflect light into dark places where the sun would never shine in deep holes and crevices (裂缝) and dark closets. it became a game for me to get light into the most inaccessible places i could find.i kept the little mirror, and as i went about my growing up, i would take it out in idle moments and continue the challenge of the game. as i became a man, i grew to understand that this was not just a childs game but a metaphor for what i might do with my life. i came to understand that i am not the light or the source of light. but lighttruth, understanding, knowledgeis there, and it will shine in many dark places only if i reflect it.i am a fragment (碎片) of a mirror whose whole design and shape i do not know. nevertheless, with what i have i can reflect light into the dark places of this worldinto the black places in the hearts of menand change some things in some people. perhaps others may see and do likewise. this is what i am about. this is the meaning of my life.”28. on hearing the authors question, dr. papaderos at first.a. laughed at his foolishnessb. wasnt sure of the

you might as well take my coat to keep you warm.”the robber looked at him puzzled, and said, “why are you doing this?”diaz replied, “if youre willing to risk your freedom for a few dollars, then you must really need the money. i mean, all i wanted to do was to get a dinner and if you really want to join me”diaz says he and the teen went into a diner and sat in a booth.“the manager comes by, the dishwashers come by, the waiters come by to say hi,” diaz says.the kid said, “you know everybody here. do you own this place?”“no, i just eat here a lot,” diaz said. “but youre even nice to the dishwasher,” he said.diaz replied, “well, havent you been taught you should be nice to everybody?”“yeah, but i didnt think people actually behaved that way,” the teen said.when the bill arrived, daiz said, “youre going to have to pay for this bill because you have my money and i cant pay for this. so if you give me my wallet back, ill gladly treat you.”the ten returned it immediately. “i gave him $20 i figure maybe itll help him.” diaz says he asked for something in returnthe teens knife“and he gave it to me.”afterwards, when diaz told his mother what happened, she said, “youre the type of kid that if someone asked you for the time, you gave them your watch.”“i figure, you know, if you treat people right, you can only hope that they treat you right. its as simple as it gets in this

and played outdoors when they were children. 37 we so often talk of “the environment” as if it exists elsewhere, a distant entity that humankind is not connected to. we may have disconnected from nature, but we are delusional (妄想的) if we think we can live without it. ignoring the value and contribution of nature to our well being is life threatening. 38 39 inside. for 98 per cent of australian children, “watching tv or videos out of school hours remains the most common recreational activity of children aged 5 to 14 years.” a report in 2006 noted that “not only was the participation rate highest for watching television, videos or dvds, on average, children involved spent more time on this activity than on any of the other selected activities.”a couple of years ago the australian national depression initiative, beyond blue, engaged associate professor mardie townsend of deakin universitys faculty of health, medicine, nursing and behavioural sciences to investigate any health benefits from including the outdoors in our lives. she observed, “experiencing nature in an outdoor setting can help tackle not only physical health problems such as obesity and heart disease, but also mental health problemsand there is plenty of evidence to support the claim.”im not suggesting that everyone need spend 738 days hugging a tree. there are a host of mainstream opportunities for our children to learn about, and from, the outdoors. 40 and lets not forget family weekends camping in the bush; or simply get down and dirty, rolling in the grass and watching bees in the backyard or nearby park, with mum and dad. for as william shakespeare penned, “one touch of nature makes the whole kin.”a. where did the young go ?b. scientific corroboration is also abundant.c. but ignoring is exactly what were doing.d. without nature, the little children suffere. theres school supporting outdoor education experiences.f. it also has a deep influence on childrens intellectual health as well.g. but todays young people dont play outdoors like their parents.第三部分 英语知识运用 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）every day, the news of the world reaches people by over 300 million copies of daily
