24、   About 10 years ago, I started a job as a trainer. In one of my first classes, the head trainer told us a very encouraging story.

He began by drawing a man standing in the middle of a circle. To make it more interesting, he drew things like a house, a car, and a few friends inside the circle.

He asked the question, “Can anyone tell me what this is?” In a long silence, one guy decided to throw out, “The world?” The trainer said, “That's close. Actually, this is your Comfort Zone. Inside your circle, you have all the things that are important to you. Your home, your family, your friends and your job. People feel that inside this circle they are safe from any danger.”

“Can anyone tell me what happens when you step out of this circle?” A strong silence came over the room. The same guy finally started, “You are afraid.” Another guy said, “You make mistakes.” The silence continued and the trainer smiled and said, “When you make mistakes, what can the result be?” The first guy shouted, “You learn something.”

“Actually, you are learning.” The trainer turned to the board and drew an arrow(箭头) pointing from the man to the outside of the circle. He continued to say, “When you leave your Comfort Zone, you put yourself out there, in front of the world to be in situations that you are not comfortable with. The end result is that you have learned something that you did not know and you slowly become a better person.” He turned again to the board and drew a bigger circle around the first one, and added a few new things like more friends, a bigger house, etc.

26、   Today, an increasing number of people are always looking at their mobile phones with their heads down. These people are called the “Heads-down Tribe(低头族)”. Are you a heads-down tribe member? Heads-down tribe members now can be seen everywhere.

More and more traffic accidents are happening because more drivers use mobile phones when they are driving. In order to make drivers pay more attention to driving, some new traffic rules have been made. For example, people who use mobile phones while driving in Taiwan are fined(罚款).  Car drivers and motorcyclists who break the traffic rule will be fined NT$3,000 and NT$1,000 respectively(分别地).

As we can see above, using mobile phones may cause accidents and even cost a lot of money. Also, more and more interesting and strange facts happen to the “Heads-down Tribe”. Let’s have a look at an interesting TV report. A man in America kept using his mobile phone on his way home. As a result, he knocked into a big lost bear. When he lifted his eyes from the phone，he was so afraid that he turned around and ran away quickly. Another fact is that we can often see people in the restaurant eating face to face but looking at their own mobile phones. It’s strange that they don’t talk to the ones who sit opposite to them during the meal. Some of them even have fun communicating with others on the phone.

Mobile phones are helpful and necessary tools for modern life. Are mobile phones good or bad? It depends on how people use them. Let’s be “healthy” users and try to be the “Heads-up Tribe”.

【1】A heads-down tribe member________.

A．is good at using the Internet

B．is a dangerous driver

C．is always looking at his or her mobile phone

【2】The underlined word “motorcyclists” in the passage means ________ in Chinese.

A．摩托车手

B．手机使用者

C．低头族

【3】The American was ________when he knocked into the bear.

A．driving a car

B．going to work

C．using his mobile phone

【4】According to the passage, the “Heads-down Tribe” ________ when they eat in a restaurant.

A．look at their own mobile phones

B．don’t talk to the people who sit opposite

C．Both A and B

【5】What’s the best title for the passage?

A．Drive your car carefully

B．Use mobile phones properly

C．Be a heads-down tribe member

27、   A wise man was walking from one town to another with a few of his followers, and they happened to pass a lake. So they stopped there to rest for a while, and the wise man said to one of his followers, “Could you please get me some water from the lake? The follower walked to the lake. Some people were washing clothes in the water, and right at that moment, several carts started crossing the lake. As a result, the water became very muddy at once.

Then the follower went back. He told the wise man that the water was very muddy and not fit to drink. After they had rested for about half an hour, the wise man again asked the same follower to go back to the lake and get him some water to drink. And the follower went to the lake. This time he found that all the mud had gone down to the bottom. The water in the lake was very clear and looked fit to drink. So he filled his water bottle and took it to the wise man.

The wise man took the water bottle and drank then looked up at the follower. “See what you did to make the water clean ?” he said, “You let it be for a while and the mud settled down on its own, so that you could get some clear drinking water. Your mind can also be like that lake when it is disturbed by something. If you just let it be and give it a little time, it will most likely settle down on its own without you having to put in any effort at all to calm it.”

【1】Water in the lake became muddy after ________ .

A.the wise man said he felt thirsty B.the follower left the lake

C.some people washed clothes in it D.several carts crossed the lake

【2】The water became clear again because ________ .

C.the mud had settled to the bottom

D.the follower did something to make it clear

【3】The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3. refers to ________ .

A.a cart B.some mud C.a bottle D.a stone

【4】According to the wise man, how can you keep your mind clear?

A.Give it some time to settle down on its own.

B.Go to a lake and get ideas from it

C.Put in a lot of effort to calm it.

D.Ask others to help you out when you are disturbed

So why did the restaurant ________ the sign on its door?
