It's generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudes.They recycle their garbage because they care about the environment.They pay $5 for a caramelbrulée latte because they like expensive coffee drinks.
It's undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions (性情), but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are, as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bern.Byob serving our own behavior.We can be strangers to ourselves.If we knew our own minds, why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior? If our minds were an open book, we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes.Actually, we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are.
Moreover, we don't just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character—we infer characters that weren't there before.Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us,which we fail to recognize. Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if we didn't.Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us.We should not mistakenly believe that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition.
Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make, people become what they do,though it may not be in compliance (符合) with their true desires.Therefore, we should all bear in mind Kurt Vonnegut's advice: "We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.

A.determine one's behavior B.reflect one's taste
C.influence one's surroundings D.result from one's habits

A.The return of a wallet can indicate one's honesty.
B.A kind person will offer his seat to the old.
C.One recycles plastics to protect the environment.
D, One buys latte out of true love of coffee.
32.What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the passage?
A.We fall to realize our inner dispositions.
B.We can be influenced by outside pressures.
C.Our behavior is the result of our true desires.
D.Our characters can shape our social relationships.
33, What does the author mainly discuss in the passage?
A.Personalities and attitudes. B.Preferences and habits.
C. Behavior and personalities. D.Attitudes and preferences.

The idea of being able to walk on water has long interested humans greatly.Sadly, biological facts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid--we simply weigh too much,and all our mm pushes down through our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.
However, several types of animals can walk on water. One of the most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicus .Basilicus, a lizard (蜥蜴) native to Central and South America.It can run across water for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water's surface with its feet.The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward.For humans to do this, we'd need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create
adequate "hitting.“
But fortunately there is an alternative: cornflour.By adding enough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does take a lot), you can create a "non-Newtonian" liquid that doesn't behave like normal water.Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles(微粒) in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard.Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick liquid of cornflour.
Fun though all this may sound, it's still rather messy and better mad about in theory than carried out in practice, if you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink--and take a shower afterward!
34.Walking on water hasn't become a reality mainly because humans __
A.are not interested in it B.have biological limitations
C.have not invented proper tools D.are afraid to make an attempt
35.What do we know about Basiilius basilicus from the passage?
A.It is light enough to walk on water. B.Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.
C.It can run across water at a certain speed.
D.Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in watch
36, What is the function of the cornflour according to the passage?
A.To create a thick liquid. B.To turn the water into solid.
C.To help the liquid behave normally. D.To enable the water to rove rapidly.
37.What is the author's attitude toward the idea of humans' walking on water?
A, It is risky but beneficial. B.It is interesting and worth trying.
C.It is crazy and cannot become a reality. D.It is impractical thigh theoretically possible.
D

I’ll never lose weight--I come from a fat family

Wrong! Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively.The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that's fun as well as progressive.If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a different mute.
If you do yoga, try a Tai chi class.If you like swiping, set yourself a distance or time challenge.
No pain, no gain
Wrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt.Indeed, pain is you body telling you something's wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury.You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly.If they don't, rest and seek medical advice.
