21、What is time? What is beauty? What is a good life? Have you thought about such big questions? In fact, these are things that philosophy（哲学）cares about.

World Philosophy Day is every year on the third Thursday of November. It celebrates the importance and role of philosophy in our lives. This year, it falls on November 18th.

The word “philosophy” comes from Greek, meaning “love of wisdom (智慧) ”. It is the study of the nature and meaning of human life. It tries to find answers to basic questions about the world and ourselves. What makes a philosophical question is not what it is about, but at what level it is asked. They might sound simple, but they can be quite difficult to answer. For example, someone might ask whether a social rule is fair. A philosopher will ask, “What is fairness?” Thinking about such questions makes us think deeply. “We need philosophy because it’s a human thing to do,” said Emma Worley of the UK’s Philosophy Foundation, “to think and to reason.”

The birth of philosophy has helped social development. As the saying goes, “Every empire started from a thought.” For thousands of years, people were doing what they were told to. No one questioned if it was right or wrong. Widows (寡妇) were burning themselves along with the dead bodies of their husbands. Girls were seen as a burden (负担) for centuries. But 2,500 years ago, Greek philosopher Socrates started to question some thoughts, asking “Why?” and “Is this the best way?”

Philosophy makes sense to us in daily life as well. Epictetus, an ancient Roman philosopher of Stoicism, said what makes men have trouble is not events, but their opinion about events. Stoicism also notes that you can’t control what happens to you, you can only control how you deal with it. These ideas help us control our feelings and live better.

“There’s a medical art for the mind, and its name is philosophy,” said ancient Roman philosopher Cicero.

【1】What is the goal of World Philosophy Day?

A．Showing different roles in our lives.

B．Asking questions about the world.

C．Telling people the importance of philosophy in our lives.

D．Studying how our minds work.

【2】What can we learn about philosophical questions in Paragraph 3?

A．They are boring and useless.

B．They don’t need answers.

C．They serve social policies.

D．They are difficult to answer.

【3】According to Paragraph 4, we know that _______

A．philosophers like to ask strange questions.

B．Socrates was the world’s first philosopher.

C．philosophy questions common opinions.

D．philosophy is the first step to setting up a country.

【4】Which idea probably comes from Stoicism?

A．We shouldn’t gladly accept whatever happens to us.

B．We should live only to enjoy pleasure.

C．Smart people know how to control others.

D．We can control how to deal with what happens to us.

【5】According to the passage, in what ways can philosophy help us?

a. Live richer lives.

b. Encourage self-thinking.

c. Deal with trouble.

d. Avoid bad events.

A．ab

B．ac

C．bc

D．bd

23、Do you often make the “V” sign when taking photos? You might have to do so less often from now on.

Experts (专家) say that it is possible to use the “V” sign to copy someone’s fingerprints (指纹). Someone could take your photo, zoom in (使画面放大) on your fingers, and then use AI technology to copy your prints.

Does that mean you should not make the “V” sign in photos anymore? Not really. The fingerprints in your photos must be clear enough to copy. If the photo is taken from 1.5 metres or less away, it is possible to copy your prints. But if the photo is taken from over 3 metres away, your prints won’t be clear enough to copy. The photos we put online are usually not clear enough to copy. But still, you should be careful.
