2. 首先，努力找到你对什么感兴趣。At school, you study many subjects.You need to know what you like and what you don’t like. This may be helpful to you in the future.

Second, maybe you don’t like math and you want to drop it. 3. 但是来自数学的能力能帮助你在将来解决许多问题。So you should practice your brain by thinking more.

Third, you should believe in yourself. Maybe you learn English at school, but you don't speak English at all. 4. But learning English can show that you have the ability of learning languages. Suppose you go abroad one day and want to find a job there, how can you make it if you’re not confident in expressing yourself in language learning?

25、   American writer William Arthur Ward said, “Adversity (逆境) causes some men to break; others to break records.”

Sa Ye, aged 18, is one of those who found his way to get out of a terrible situation. Known as “Qizai” or “770”, the teenager is a video game player on the Huya live-streaming platform (直播平台) and makes more than 10,000 yuan every month. However, his success is hard-won.

Sa was born with a serious disease in a poor family in Yunnan Province. This disease makes his body very weak. He has been unable to walk or even stand since he was seven years old. Because of his disease, Sa spent most of his time by himself and felt lonely. This started to change after his older cousin gave him a smart phone. Sa soon became interested in playing some popular video games, like Honor of Kings. Through the games, Sa felt connected with young people and the whole world outside. “It made him happy again,” said his grandfather.

In 2019, when his grandmother became quite sick, Sa decided to make money by live-streaming under the name of DK-770. He trained hard. Although only part of his hands moved freely, he was able to play as well as other players. “When I can still move my fingers, I want to work hard on my gaming skills and make enough money to cover the living costs for my parents,” said Sa.

Now with nearly 400,000 fans, Sa hopes to become a better player in the future. “In the game, I’m not worse than others. Instead, I believe that I’m stronger. This is why my name is ‘770’. I want to be a hero like ‘007’ and have the ability to protect my family,” he said.

26、Martin Luther King was born in Georgia, the U．S.A. When he was a boy, he sang with other children in the church(教堂). Little Martin knew that it was very important to love and be kind to others.

Although the church was very important to Martin, he was interested in other things, too. He liked sports very much. He was not tall, but he was very strong. The boys in his town often met at Martin's house for a game of football or basketball. Martin liked school and was a very good student. He went to college at fifteen. At first, he didn't know what he wanted to study. He knew the black people didn't have the same rights as the white people, and he also knew that the black people were not as happy as the white people. He wanted to work for the black people. He wanted to help the poor black people.

Later he really became a famous man. He was fighting for the men's rights all his life. At the age of thirtyfive, Martin Luther King was the youngest man to have received the Nobel Peace Prize. He was murdered on the evening of April 4, 1968.

27、   Here are two methods that people use to make choices. One method is to compare the options(可选择的物品) with each other and choose the best one. The other is to evaluate each option individually and then pick the best one. Experts are more likely to evaluate the options individually, while ordinary people tend to compare the options.

Researches show that it is easier for people to make choices when they are being compared. Imagine buying a new dictionary. You find out that a particular dictionary has 50,000 words in it. Suppose, though, that you find out that another dictionary only has 25,000 words in it. Now, you know that 50,000 words is a good number for a dictionary to have.

New research shows that when people compare options, they also get more confident in their judgments. To get participants in their studies in a mindset to make comparisons, researchers had people look at a complex picture and write down the similarities and differences between two halves of the picture. Other participants evaluated(评价) the picture without making comparisons. Previous work shows that this technique gets people to make comparisons in later tasks.

After that, participants were shown descriptions of three brands(品牌) of cell phones (labeled Brands A, B and C). They had a chance to study the descriptions. Later, they were shown fourteen of the characteristics they had seen and were asked whether those characteristics belonged to Brand B. With each response, participants were allowed to place a bet between 0 and 10 dollars based on how confident they were in their response. The higher the bet, the more confident the people were that they knew whether the characteristic belonged to Brand B. People who were put in a mindset to make comparisons were more confident in their judgments about the characteristics of the cell phones than people who did not make comparisons. Despite the difference in confidence, the people who made comparisons were not more accurate in their judgments than those who did not make comparisons.

This research suggests that we need to be careful when making decisions. On the one hand, we are quite likely to rely on comparing the options in order to make a choice. On the other hand, those comparisons will increase our feeling of confidence in the decision. So, we need to recognize that at least part of that confidence comes from the way the choice was made.

【1】Why does the writer mention a dictionary in Paragraph 2?

A.To explain a truth. B.To draw a conclusion.

C.To prove the writer’s opinion. D.To raise a question.

【2】The underlined word “mindset” in Paragraph 3 means ________.

A.change B.relationship C.thought D.decision

【3】The participants who evaluated the picture by making comparisons _______.

A.preferred Brand B B.placed a higher bet

C.gave a quicker answer D.made more choices

【4】What is the best title for the passage?

A.Evaluation Decides Option B.Compare the Options

C.Decision Roots in Judgment D.Comparison Creates Confidence
