I have bounced around to find where I truly fit in, I found my place while I stayed in Guatemala, an orphanage (孤儿院)with the children living there. Through hearing many stories of their lives. I was moved to tears and started question my living ways and gave up everything that wasn’t essential: makeup and any other sort of luxury (奢侈品). I lived like they did. It was the most relaxing feeling in the world. When at Nuestros Pequenos Hermanos, we were given the task of creating a pig pen(猪圈). At firs, I thought it should be easy. After arriving at the area where the pig pen should he, we saw a hill. We were told to uproot the weeds as well as level the entire area. Looking at it we felt it would be impossible. On my own faith journey, I have felt this type of doubt before. The \appeared to be an obstacle I could not overcome, but in the end completed it with efforts.

A Return of Confidence C At your next meeting, wait for a pause in conversation and try to measure how long it lasts. Among English speakers, chances are that it will be a second or two at moat. But while this pattern may be universal, our awareness of silence differs dramatically across cultures. 2 What one culture considers a confusing or awkward pause may be seen by others as a valuable moment of reflection and a sign of respect for what the last speaker has said. Research in Dutch(荷兰语) and also in English found that when a silence in conversation stretches to four seconds, people start o feel uneasy, In contrast, a separate study of business meetings found that Japanese people are happy with silences of 8.2 seconds-nearly twice as long as in Americans’ meetings. In Japan. it is recognized that the best communication is when you don’t speak at all. It's already a failure to understand each other by peaking because you’re repairing that failure by using word. In the US， it may start from the history of colonial America as a crossroads of many different races. （殖民地的）When you have a complex of difference. it's hard to develop common understanding unless you talk and there’s understandably a kind of anxiety unless people are verbally devoted to developing a common life. This applies also to some extent lo London. In contrast, when there’s more homogeneity, perhaps it s easier or some kinds of silence to appear. For example, among your closest friends and family it's easier to sit in silence than with people you 're less well acquainted with. 8.

The closer we and our family are, the easier the silence appears 11. What does the underlined word \A. Similarity B. Difference C. Diversity. D. Misunderstanding D What’s small, buzzes here and there and visits flowers? If you said bees or hummingbirds, you got it. You wouldn’t be the first if you mixed the two up. Now a group of researchers even say we should embrace our history of considering the two together in the same group. The way scientists study bees could help them study hummingbird behavior, too. Scientists first compared the two back in the 1970s when studying how animals search for food. The idea is that animals use a kind of math to make choices in order to minimize the work it takes to earn maximum rewards. Researchers at the time focused on movement rules, like the order in which they visited flowers, and where flowers 3 were located to others. It was “almost like an algorithm(算法)” for efficient searching, said David Pritchard, a biologist at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. Hummingbirds and bees had similar solutions. As the field of animal cognition(认知) appeared, hummingbird and bee research parted. Neuroscientists and behavioral ecologists developed ways to study bee behavior in naturalistic settings. Hummingbird researchers compared hummingbirds to other birds and borrowed methods from psychology to study their ability to learn in the lab. To be fair, hummingbirds and bees differ. For example, hummingbirds have more advanced eyes and brains than bees. Honeybees and bumblebees are social; hummingbirds typically aren’t. But however they perceive(感知) or process information, they both experience similar information, Dr. Pritchard said. In day-to-day searching for food, for example, hummingbirds may rely on more of a bee’s-eye view than a bird’s-eye view. Like other birds, they rely on landmarks, distances and directions to make maps when travelling long distances, but they don’t use these cues to find flowers. Move a flower just an inch or so away from where a hummingbird thought it was and it will hover over the flower’s original location. Dr. Pritchard is investigating if, like bees, hummingbirds engage in view matching — hovering, scanning snapshots of a place to its memory and using those as references later. 12. What is the enter of research on hummingbirds and bees in the 1970s? A. Memory B. Movement rules C. Reward calculating D. Information processing. 13. Which subject’s research methods were adopted to study the learning ability of hummingbirds? A. Math B. Biology C. Eulogy D. Psychology. 14. How do researchers find out that hummingbirds are not like birds? A. By setting them free. B. By moving flowers. C. By matching view. D. By making maps 15. Which of the following Can be the best title for the text? A. Hummingbirds and Bees B. Hummingbirds in the Lab C. New Trends in Studying Bees D. Thinking of Hummingbirds as Bees 第二节（共5小題；每小思2分，分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Do teenagers know how to sleep? If you’re the parent of teens, you might be laughing to yourself.
