Do you drink soda drinks? How often do you drink it? When I was young, I was an

avid

(

热衷的

) drinker

of Coca-Cola and other soft drinks. Actually, I was pretty much a coke

36

. I could never get past a day

without drinking Coca-Cola. It was

37

for me to have days when I would finish almost a whole 1.5 liter

coke bottle every day.

As I grew up, I became more

38

of the importance to be healthy. I started to relook into my diet,

including

my

essential

drink

of

coke

and

soda.

Over

time,

I

realized

coke

is

actually

quite

39

to

our

health. Coke and soft drinks contain caffeine, which is a psychoactive stimulant

drug. It can affect the central

nervous

system

and

40

brain

function,

resulting

in

temporary

changes

in

perception,

mood,

consciousness and behavior

—

so much so that I

41

why it even became such an

ubiquitous

(

普遍存在

的

)

drink!

In

my

42

for

a

healthier

life,

I

made

the

decision

to

quit

drinking

coke

at

18.

I

started

to

slowly

43

Coca-Cola and soda drinks. When I reached my early 20s, they were almost

44

out

of

my

diet.

In

the

rare

occasions

where

I

do

drink

it,

I

would

find

the

taste

excessively

sweet,

acidic

and

unpalatable

(unpleasant

to

taste).

When

I

look

back,

it

was

45

for

me

to

even

fathom

(

理解

)

myself

Are you a

compulsive

(

不由自主的

) spender, or do you hold on to your money as long as possible? Are you

a bargain hunter? Would you rather use charge accounts than pay cash? Your

answers to these questions will

36

your

personality.

According

to

psychologists,

our

individual

money

habits

not

only

show

our

37

and values, but can also

38

from past problems.

Experts

in

psychology

believe

that

for

many

people,

money

is

an

important

symbol

of

strength

and

39

. Many people consider money a symbol of love. They spend it on their family and friends to express love,

or they buy themselves expensive presents because they need love.

People can

40

themselves to different things

—

for example, alcohol, drugs, certain foods, or even

television.

People

who

have

such

an

addiction

are

compulsive.

According

to

psychologists,

many

people

are

compulsive spenders; they feel that they must spend money. This compulsion, like most others, is irrational

—

impossible to explain

41

. For compulsive spenders who buy on credit, charge accounts are even more

exciting

than

money.

Their

pleasure

in

42

amounts

is

actually

greater

than

the

pleasure

that

they

get

from the things they buy.

There is even a

43

psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of course, most people look for

sales, low prices, and

44

. Compulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things that they don’t need just

because they are

45

. They believe they help their budgets, but they are really playing an exciting game:

when they can buy something for less than other people, they feel that they win.

Modern women are unhappy. A couple of U.S. studies say so, reports the San Francisco Chronicle, so it

must be true: ―Since 1972 women’s self

-described levels of happiness have

36

a few percentage points

and now rest below that of men in every age

37

.

‖

Leaving aside the question of how you self-describe happiness, which sounds painful, we need to ask why

women are

38

. It’s the classic

whinge

(

抱怨

) list: having battles for

39

with men, they’ve won

the right to a demanding career but they haven't stopped feeling

40

responsible for feeding and clothing

the kids. They never have enough time; they feel

41

because they’ve spending le

ss time with the kids

and the husband

—

it s all too familiar.

The problem, say academics, is that we’ve now got too much of choice and that

42

paralysis

(

麻

搏

). ―Whatever salad dressing you

43

,

it won’t be perfect and you end up thinking about t

he ones you

didn’t buy,‖ says Barry Schwartz, the author of The Paradox of Choice

: Why More Is Less.

That

44

has become a

mantra

(

It’s never easy to admit you are in the wrong. Being humans, we all need to know the art of apologizing.

Look back with honesty and

think how often you’ve judged

36

, said unkind things, and pushed yourself

ahead at the expense of a friend. Then count the

37

when you indicated clearly and truly that you were

sorry. A bit frightening, isn’t it? Frightening because some deep w

isdom in us knows that when even a small

wrong has been

38

, some mysterious moral feeling is disturbed, and it stays out of balance until

39

is acknowledged and regret is expressed.

I

remember

a

doctor

friend,

telling

me

about

a

man

who

came

to

him

with

40

signs:

headaches,

insomnia

(

失眠

) and stomach trouble. No physical cause could be found. My friend said to the man eventually,

―Unless you tell me what’s worrying you, I can’t help you.‖

After some

41

, the man confessed that, as executor of his father’s will, he had been cheating

his

brother, who lived abroad, of his

42

. Then and there my wise friend made the man write to his brother

asking for forgiveness and

enclosing a cheque as the first step in

43

their good relation. He then went

with him to mail box in the corridor. As the letter disap

peared, the man burst into tears. ―Thank you,‖ He said, ―I

think I’m cured.‖ And he was. A

45

apology can not only heal a damaged relationship but also make it

stronger.

If

you

can

think

of

someone

45

an

apology

from

you,

someone

you

have

wronged,

or

just

neglected, do something about it right now.

The global crisis in education is a silent, invisible crisis, perhaps because those most immediately affected

—

the world’s poorest and most vulnerable children and their parents —

have a weak voice. But it is at our own

36

that we ignore the overwhelming evidence that disadvantage in education costs lives,

37

economic

growth,

fuels

youth

unemployment,

and

reinforces

national

and

global

inequalities.

The

bottom

line

is

that

education

holds

the

key

to

the

development

of

more

38

economies,

greater

social

mobility,

and

poverty

reduction. Education is the key that

39

human potential and prepares future generations to participate in an

40

knowledge-based global economy.

We merely have to look at the numbers to

41

the scale of the crisis. There are 68 million primary

school age children out of school

—

and global progress towards universal primary education has slowed since

2005. If current

42

continue, the out-of-school population could increase to 72 million by 2015. Another

71 million adolescents are out of school, many of them lacking a basic education. And while governments across

the world are concerned about the quality of education, the evidence on learning achievement levels in many of

the poorest countries is profoundly

43

.

Less than three years from the 2015 target date, the world is not on

43

to achieve the Millennium

Development

Goal

(MDG)

of

decent

quality

universal

primary

education.

The

45

responsibility

for

changing

this

picture

and

delivering

on

the

promise

of

education

for

all

rests

with

governments.

More young Americans have become better educated. This reflects a

36

in the labor market, which

大

学

英

语

专

项

has

increasingly

rewarded

post-secondary

education.

At

the

same

time,

the

economy

has

seen

a

decrease

in

well- paid

manual

labor

that

required

skills

learned

on

the

job

or

in

trade

schools.

The

shift

to

a

more

service- oriented economy means universities and colleges have

37

trade schools and apprenticeships.

On the one hand that is good because it makes the American labor force better educated. Theoretically, it

should also increase

meritocracy

(

精英教育

). Much of the income

38

in America can be explained by

the

earning

differential

between

college

and

non-college

graduates. As

more

people

attend

university,

income

differences

should

be

reduced.

But

as

university

education

becomes

more

widely

39

,

should

curricula

change?

Between

labor-market

demand

and

innate

ability,

probably

only

a

fraction

of

the

population

benefit

40

from doing so.

On the other hand, America

41

from title inflation. A university degree is now a

prerequisite

(

必要

条件

) to middle- class membership. Rather than just being

42

of education, it is also an expensive and

time-consuming

signal.

The

high

rate

of

entrance

examination

masks

a

grave

problem.

Dropping

out

of

university is at

43

levels, especially among low-income Americans. Starting but not finishing a degree

44

in

a

considerable

loss

of

time

and

money.

Many

poor

students

drop

out

not

just

because

of

cost,

but

because

they

find

themselves

unprepared

and

frustrated.

Offering

more

practical

degrees

could

be

part

of

the

solution to this problem, though it is not a

solution.

Comparat

ive

studies

mislead

us

because

analysts

define

―economic

mobility‖

as

the

degree

to

which

people’s income

36

from their parents’. The wider the difference is, the greater a country’s mobility is.

But the American economy especially rewards certain

37

—

persistence, hard work, love of education

—

that tend to be passed from parents to children. Technically that implies low mobility, compared with Europe.

But immigrants see it as

fostering

(

孕育

) opportunity. That’s why Europeans keep coming here.

Still, we are slipping,

38

for those starting out at the bottom.

For a Pew Foundation project on economic mobility, my Heritage colleagues and I identified three crucial

―leading

indicators‖

f

or

upward

movement.

One

is

accumulating

savings.

Our

problem

is

a

lack

of

personal

savings among lower-income Americans when compared with

39

house-holds in, say, Asia. Policies like

ending the double taxation of savings would help. But we also need a

40

shift in attitudes to savings:

Asian- Americans have a lot to teach the rest of us.

Second,

family

breakdown

has

41

economic

progress

for

those

on

the

bottom

rings.

Improving

program

incentives

(

激励措施

) and

42

may help

counteract

(

抵消

) this. But it takes a village to sustain

the

ladder

of opportunity.

That’s

why

projects

like

the

Harlem

Children’s

Zone

are

critical.

This

organization

links charter schools, parenting workshops and other efforts that

43

a community-wide culture of upward

mobility.

For

some

educators,

there

is

nothing

wrong

with

fun

and

games.

A

group

called

the

Education Arcade

recently

held

a

conference

in

Los

Angeles

to

discuss

the

future

of

36

games.

The

Education

Arcade

brings together international game designers, publishers, teachers and policymakers. They say they want to lead

37

in the way the world learns through computer and video games.

The

38

was part of E-three, the Electronic Entertainment Exposition. This is a yearly trade

39

where companies show off new games and educational products.

The Education Arcade started at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, near Boston. Professors worked

with

the

Microsoft

company

create

what

they

called

the

Games- to-Teach

Project.

The

group

began

to

40

ways to use technology in teaching and learning. They worked with game designers to develop ideas about how

41

and

science

could

mix

with

game

playing.

The

Education

Arcade

is

the

research

part

of

this

Games-to-Teach Project.

The group recently announced

that a ―Games for Learning‖ statement will be

42

on some products.

This should begin to appear in American stores in about six months. The
