Critical thinking(批判性思维) is trying to improve the way you think. People use critical thinking in every area of life to solve problems and evaluate claims(评估主张).

Like every other skill, critical thinking takes practice. When a problem comes our way, we need to think critically to decide how to solve it. When we see an advertisement, for example, we should stop and think. Advertisements are made to make people feel certain that they are true, and then people can buy the products. But is what the advertisement says true? Is it making a claim? Or does it only interest us? Critical thinking is important and stops us from making poor choices. In fact, we are using it if we ask questions naturally about what we see.

Practice makes perfect. While you are growing in critical thinking, you'll become a wiser and more thoughtful person. There are many ways of doing practice. Here are a few.

★ Read about a topic people disagree on. Look at articles or books on all sides of the subject. For each side of the subject, think carefully and evaluate it.

★ When you see or hear a claim, ask questions about it. Who is making the claim and why?

★Evaluate your own thinking. Where and why do you think uncritically? How can you improve?

Critical thinking should be part of everything we do. It may help you to succeed at work or school Make yourself into a habit of critical thinking. Change your thoughts and change your world.

We know that many animals do not stay in one place. Birds,fish and other animals move from one place  to another at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily,but others move to get away from places that are too crowded.
When cold weather comes,many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration(迁移)is probably the migration of the fish which is called “salmon”.This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water.There it spends its life. When it is old,it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when they bccome too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way the seadide,and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.
Recently, scientists have studied the migration of kind of lobster(龙虾).Every year, when the season of the bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody know where they go.
So,sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another,but at other times we don’t. Maybe living things just like to travel.

Your brain controls everything you do.It makes it possible for you to think,learn,create and feel;to blink (眨眼)and breathe and for your heart to beat﹣this fantastic control center is you brain.It is so amazing that a famous scientist once called it"the most complex (复杂)thing we have yet discovered in our universe".

Can this small grey organ (器官),which weights less than one and a half kilos,really do so much?Amazingly,your brain contains about 100 billion neurons (神经元)﹣it would take you over 3000 years to count them all.Believe it or not,the activity in your brain never stops.Your neurons create and send more messages than all the phones in the world.And although one neuron creates only a little electricity,all your neurons together can producce enough electricity to power a light bulb (灯泡)."

So exactly how fast does your brain work?Well,imagine this:a bee lands on your foot.Neurons in your skin send this information to your brain at a speed of more than 240 kilometers per hour.Your brain then uses other neurons to send the message back to your foot to shake the bee off quickly.These neurons can send this information at more than 320kilometers per hour.No computer has your brain's unbelievable ability to deal with the amount of information coming from your eyes,ears and other sensory organs.

But how does your brain allow you to learn things that you will use in the future?The structure (结构)of your brain changes every time you have a new thought,remember or learn something.For example,riding a bike seems impossible at first,but soon you are able to do it.How?As you practice,your brain sends"bike riding"messages again and again.Soon,the actions are learnt and Yuri are able to ride a bike easily from then on.

42.From the passage we know that neurons  

A.receive messages very slowly

Because earthquakes happen without warning, it’s important to take steps now to prepare. Because you don’t know where you will be when an earthquake happens, prepare some supplies for your home, workplace, and car.
1. Water.
A person needs at least 1/2 gallon of water daily just for drinking. Store at least 1 gallon of water per person per day and be prepared for a 72-hour period. It is suggested that you buy bottled water. Keep bottled water in its original container and do not open it until you need to use it. Also, do check the “use by” date.
2. Food.
It’s always a practical idea to keep a supply of non-perishable(不易腐烂的) food on hand. Have an enough supply of canned food, powdered milk, dried fruits, non-salted nuts and canned juices for at least 72 hours.
3. Flashlights(手电筒) and spare batteries.
Keep a flashlight beside your bed, at your place of work, and in your car. Do not use matches or candles after an earthquake until you are sure that no gas leaks.
Prepare a battery-powered radio and spare batteries. Most telephones will be out of order, so radios will be your best source of information.
4. Clothes.
If you live in a cold place, you must think about warmth. You might not have heat after an earthquake. Think about your clothing and bedding supplies.
Why should people prepare themselves for an earthquake?

A.Because earthquakes can be known before they happen.
B.Because earthquakes take place without warning.
C.Because earthquakes usually take place in the neighborhood.

Some parents are used to doing almost everything for their children. They see their older children as babies all the time! It can be a very common problem in China, because most parents only have one child in China. Some parents care so much about the safety of their children that they are afraid to let them go anywhere or do anything by themselves. So their children fail to learn social skills and become more dependent(依赖的)on them!

    In fact, no children really enjoy being looked after by their parents all the time. No parents would be happy knowing that. Because of too much care, their children don't know anything about the world. Children need their own time to grow into adults and to learn how to deal with problems. Too much care damages their fun when they are growing up. And when suddenly they can't depend on their parents, these children will be in a big trouble!

    It's nice that parents show their care to their children. It's nice that children know that their parents' care is out of love. And it will be nicer if the children let their parents know how much love they really need and how much love is too much.

A. many children don't like to go to school

It's been 100 years since the actor and filmmaker Charlie Chaplin produced the film The Kid ,which many consider to be his greatest one.

Like all films at the time,The Kid was made in black and white and was silent (made without any sound,not even the characters talking).The story is about the relationship between " the Tramp",played by Chaplin,and his adopted (领养的)child,played by Jackie Coogan.The pair develop a partnership where the six year﹣old boy breaks windows and runs away,so that Chaplin's character can offer his services as a window fixer.

Although the film is a comedy,it also has some tragedy,reflecting Chaplin's own life.He started testing actors for the role of the Kid just a few days after his baby son had died.Chaplin was known for being hard to please,and it is said that if he could,he would have played every role in every one of his films.When Chaplin visited a theatre,a dancer brought his son,Jackie Coogan,on stage,and Chaplin knew he had his co﹣star (联袂主演者).Chaplin later wrote, "All children in some form have talents;the trick is to bring it out in them.With Jackie it was easy.

Like the Kid in the film,Chaplin and his brother Sydney grew up very poor.They lived in London and were raised by their mother.When Chaplin was 10 years old,his mum became too ill to loo after her sons,so they had to take care of themselves.He later wrote that the film sets in The Kid were based (基于)on the places where he and Sydney had lived with their mother as children.

You may study differently from your friends,but your study habits are not wrong!

From an early age,we were taught that if we wanted to be successful,we had to study hard and get good results at school.In fact,good students may just end up doing jobs they don't like,and some even lead an unhappy life.Why is it like that?

    Doing well in school is different from doing well in life.Studies show that people who failed at school may not end up failing in life.You may have already known that some famous people,like Thomas Edison and Steve Jobs,didn't do very well at school or even failed to finish school.In fact,there are a lot more than just the big shots who are successful in life without finishing school.They seize (抓住)every chance to learn and finally make it to the top.

    Life is really a long lesson,so long that you can't define(界定)a person's success by just one section (部分)of it.If you have already finished school,keep learning because what you have learned at school will never be enough to live a satisfying life.If you are still studying,whether you are good or bad at school,don't take your school results too seriously as long as you have put your heart into it.Keep learning to make the most of your talents(天赋).That's how you can live a happy and successful life.

Do you get lots of reading tasks as part of your homework? You might wish that you could read faster.There are some people who say that you can learn to read at super﹣high speeds. But experts disagree on this idea.

    "Speed reading is not actually possible," said Elizabeth Schotter,a scientist at the University of South Florida, US. Schotter pointed out that people who say that they can teach others how to speed read are usually doing it to make money by selling courses and books.

    In fact, speed reading has been made known to people since 1959, when US educator Evelyn Wood introduced a speed reading program. Several US presidents have even asked their officers to take speed reading courses. However, there is no real science behind speed reading.

    Schotter explained that reading is a task difficult to finish. It includes four steps: seeing a word, getting back its meaning from your memory, connecting it to other words in the same sentence, and then moving on to the next word.This process uses many parts of the brain at one time. It can't be sped up.

    Some people who say they are able to speed read are simply skimming. Skimming involves reading a passage quickly and only looking for certain words or sentences.

    Skimmers can figure out the main idea of a passage﹣especially if it's a topic they're familiar with﹣﹣but they will not be able to remember all the pieces of information.

    So is there a way to become a faster reader? Research suggests that you should try to improve the number of your words and simply read more.

(1)According to Schotter, which of the following is TRUE?  

A. It's good for students to read at super high speeds.

B. Speed reading courses are supported by real science.

C. Reading includes four steps,it's not easy to finish.

D. Speed reading courses and books are useful for us.

(2)What can we know from Paragraph 5?  

A. Skimmers will not forget all the pieces of information.

B. You must read the passage carefully when you are skimming it.

C. Skimming focuses on all the words or sentences of a passage.

D. By skimming, skimmers may find the main idea of a passage.

(3)According to this passage, how to read faster?  

A. Learn more words and read more.

B. Taking speed reading courses can help.

C. Read more books about speed reading.

D. See the words at super﹣high speeds.

Some researchers explain how most people form their social groups with people of their age.Especially, as children and teenagers, even adults, people make their friends based on proximity (邻近) more than anything else. Even in a college classroom,the students may not make friends with those who have similar personalities and interests. It's the people they really sit next to. Clearly, who stands to you has the greatest influence on you.As Jim Rohn has widely said. "You are average (平均) of five people you spend the most time with."

    Over the past ten months, I've paid Ryan, it Famous writer of several bestselling books, to help with

the book I'm writing. Working with him has shown me just how low my standards for my work are. For example, every time I send him a drab (草稿), he shows me how it could be 10 times better,and he holds me to that standard.

    It's because that I don't know what I don't know. Working with Ryan has made me realize what is possible and what it takes to create something powerful.

    Like Ryan,my business partner Richard has wonderful ideas and far different experience than I have.He has written 36 New York Times Bestsellers.He's been speaking and doing events for 20 years.Richard always performs at high levels,and he is also very strict with me because my performance is a reflection (反映) on him. It's not a bad thing because it creates high pressure (压力) to help me make great progress in organizing author training.

    In a word,you need to stay with those people who can help you realize your level and potential.Staying with people who have higher standards is the fastest way for you to change.If you don't change your environment, your progress will be very slow. Who you stay with has huge importance. You can't ignore this.

(1)Why did the writer quote (引用) Jim Rohn's words in Paragraph 1  

A.To support the writer's opinion.

B.To introduce the writer's best friend.

C.To show Jim Rohn's working ability.

D.To prove Jim Rohn is a great person.

(2)Which of the following can be put at the beginning of Paragraph 3  

A. It's not that my workmates' abilities are low.

B. It's not that my working ability was born low.

C. It's not that' e friends based on proximity.

D. It's not that I've paid Ryan to help me with my book.

(3)What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 4 refer to (指代)?  

A. The writer's performance.

B. Jim Rohn's famous saying.

In Korea, robots are the new teaching assistants in a number of preschools and kindergartens. The young students say that the robots are fun, but are these children really learning anything?

A teacher has to be able to respond to students as individuals (个体).__▲__and a teacher has to change his or her teaching style to fit the needs of the student. I seriously doubt that a computer will ever be able to do this even though the big data (数据)is widely used in the world.

4 Comments on "Robots Are Now Teaching English!"

Sara says:

    In my opinion, schools should spend money training human teachers rather than buying robots. Research shows that children learn more from real speakers than from recorded conversations.

Keiko says:

    I don't think you can learn a language without real human interaction.After all, robots cannot think as humans do.

Hassan says:

    Robots might be able to help people lean a language, but I don't think they should replace teachers because robots are just machines without human feelings.

Nancy says:

    I think robots might be very helpful in the classroom. A child might be less afraid to make a mistake in front of a robot than in front of a real person.

Have you ever wanted to achieve a goal and ended up doing lots of research on how to achieve it? As you learned more and more. it seemed you knew less and less. That is because when you learned a new concept ( 概念), you found that there was a lot more to know about it.

Usually, people think they need to get more and more information before trying a new idea. There is nothing wrong with learning a lot, but when you let learning get in the way of doing,you will never get going.
