I have relatives and friends deeply in debt, spending $ 12 for every $ 10 they earn instead of the $ 8 you know they should be spendingWhen I see them, they're proud o

25、f their new whatever"What do you think of my new truck?" asked one from the driver's seat"Do you like my new shoes?" asked another on high heels"Check out my new big screen" said a third while holding the remote in his living roomWe've all heard people fishing f

26、or compliments on their new toysEvery one of them was proud of what they'd financedThey seem to have bought it for the purpose of being proud, of showing off, of keeping up with the Joneses"Look at my new ?"is everybody's favorite phrase, even when the object in question isn't

27、theirs at all and won't be new when they've finally paid for it, if they ever doThey're proud of being stupidThey think it's cool to drive the financed car, wear the financed shoes, and watch the financed TV, but to smart people, whose opinions are the only ones we should respect, th

28、ese people look dumb as rocksThe Joneses, nine times out of 10, are financially stupidThat's why they have all that stuff on borrowed moneyWhy try to copy them? Worse, why try to impress them? Copy and impress smart people, the ones who own their stuffIf you want to impress smart people, debt is

29、 the last way to go about itTrying to impress a money-smart person by going into debt is like trying to impress Olympic swimming champion Michael Phelps by drowning in a poolMichael Phelps is impressed by good swimming and a money-smart person by good money management56According to the author, the &

32、 snake skin that had been shed by one of our many garden snakes"Isn't it beautiful?" said my wide-eyed seven-year-oldI stared at the organic wrapper and thought to myself that it really wasn't that beautiful, but I have learned never to appear uninterested with childrenThey see onl

33、y good quality and excellence in the world until educated otherwise"Why does it do this?" Sarah asked"Snakes shed their skin because they need to renew themselves," I explained"Why do they need to renew themselves?" Sarah askedI suddenly remembered an article on this pa

34、ge many years ago where the writer was expressing her concept of renewalShe used layers of paper over a wall to describe how we hide our original selves, and said that by peeling away those layers one by one, we see the original beneath"We often need to shed our skins and those coatings that we

35、 cover ourselves with," I said to my now absorbed daughter" We outgrow some things and find other ones unwanted or unnecessaryTills snake no longer needs this skinIt is probably too crinkly （起皱旳） for him, and he probably doesn't think he looks as smart in it as he once did"Sarah w

36、as getting the pointAs we talked, I knew that she began to understand, although slightly, that renewal is part of progress; that we need to take a good look at ourselves, our rooms, schoolwork and creativity, and see what we need to keep and what we need to cast offI was careful to point out that th

37、is is a natural consequence of their growth" I see, Dad," said Sarah and jumped off my lap and ran offI hoped she would remember thisThat often, in order to find our real selves underneath the layers of community and culture with which we cover ourselves year after year, we need to start e

38、xamining these layersWe need to gently peel some away, as we recognize them to be worthless or unnecessary; or at best, store the ones thrown away as mementoes （念想） of our promotion to a better vitality or spirit59At the first sight of the snake skin, the author was _Ascared Bpuzzled Cuninterested D

41、nature underneathCPersonality types are linked with structural differences in the brain, which could explain why one child grows up to be impulsive （冲动旳） and outgoing while another becomes diligent and introspectiveStructural differences between the brains of 85 people have been measured and linked

42、with the four main categories of personality types, which were classified as " novelty seeking ", characterized by impulsive actions; "harm avoidance", marked by pessimism and shyness; "reward dependence", with an addictive personality; and "persistence", who

43、are people tending to be diligent, hard-working and perfectionistsThe researchers said the brain differences are structural and can be measured in the size of specific regions of the brain that appear to be linked with each of the four personality typesFor instance, people defined as novelty-seeking

44、 personalities had a structurally bigger area in the brain while people with harm-avoidance personalities had significantly smaller volumes of tissue in brain regionsThe fact that characteristics are reflected in specific structural differences is useful to know, for instance, when it comes to under

45、standing a child's behavior and choosing the right approach so that somebody who is, for example, particularly timid, might be helped through education and developmentThere is no point shouting at a child who is very shy and telling them off, because it does not come naturally to them to put the

46、mselves forwardBut actually knowing there is a biological basis for this helps educators or parents to use the right approach to help a child to compensatePeople who have a reward-dependence personality could, for example, be helped at an early age because they are at risk of turning to drink, drugs

47、 or food if they do not get the family support and encouragement they need"This study shows that personality characteristics are something you are born with, but their full expression can be adjusted during development with the right approach," said Professor Venneri, who carried out the s

50、t shy people?AThey are often shouted at and scoldedBThey can naturally put themselves forwardCThey structurally have a smaller brain regionDThey are too timid to be educated and helped65What's the main idea of the passage?APeople have chances to change their personality typesBScientists have ide

52、rgetting to get some respect, says Ben Storm, author of a new article on memory in Current Directions in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science" We need to rethink how we're talking about forgetting and realize that under some conditions it actually do

53、es play an important role in the function of memory," says Storm, who is a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago"Memory is difficultThinking is difficult," Storm saysMemories and associations accumulate rapidly"These things could completely overrun our life and make

54、it impossible to learn and retrieve new things if they were left alone, and could just overpower the rest of memory," he saysBut, fortunately, that isn't what happens"We're able to get around these strong competing inappropriate memories to remember the ones we want to recall"

55、 Storm and other psychological scientists are trying to understand how our minds select the right things to recallif someone's talking about beaches near Omaha, Nebraska, for example, you will naturally suppress （压制） any knowledge you've collected about Omaha Beach in NormandyIn one kind of experiment, participants are given a list of words that have some sort of relation to each otherThey might be asked to memorize a
