Generally speaking，perfectionism is a good thing，if it makes you do better work and try harder to complete tasks well．However，perfectionism can become a bad thing when it stops you feeling satisfied with yourself or what you've accomplished．Every artist knows how important it is to stop adding touches to their paintings and how constantly adding elements can end up ruining the work．If you constantly demand only the very best from yourself，this can damage your self-respect as you find nothing you do will live up to your expectations．And if you extend this harsh（無情的） judgment to your friends and family and only focus on the negatives around them，you will find that they begin to dislike and avoid you．
    So how do you get rid of these kinds of negative perfectionism？The following suggestions might help you a lot．
    First of all，you'd better think twice about your standards．Look at what other people do．How long does it take them to carry out a project？Are their lower standards getting them fired？Do they still accomplish good work？Are your exacting（苛求的） standards worth the cost in terms of time and energy？I am sure that you can learn a lot from your answers．
    Secondly，don't always compare yourself with others．Perfectionists tend to have high standards．For example，an artist who thinks his work is never done might be comparing his paintings to those of Vincent van Gogh，Leonardo da Vinci or other great artists．Remember that only a few people can become great masters and that most of us are just common people．
    Last but not least，try to look at the situation objectively．If you are constantly adjusting things and never feel satisfied，then the chances are that you are too close to the situation and that you can't judge it rightly any more．You'd better ask those around you what they think and whether they think your work is good enough．Besides，give your project some breathing space by leaving it alone for some time，so you can come back to it with "fresh eyes"．
    Nobody，nor any idea，is perfect．If you have a perfectionist streak in you，try and let it go，and embrace the process of getting your idea out into the world，rather than focusing on the end result．

  • 1．Someday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the Website you've visited，or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits．
    In fact，it's likely some of these things have already happened to you．Who would watch you without your permisson？It might be a spouse，a girlfriend，a marketing company，a boss，a cop or a criminal．Whoever it is，？they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen-the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked．
    Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy，and that it's important to reveal yourself to friends，family and lovers in stages，at appropriate times．But few boundaries remain．The digital bread crumbs （碎屑） you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are，where you are and what you like．In some cases，a simple Google search can reveal what you think．Like it or not，increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret．
    The key question is：Does that matter？
    For many Americans，the answer apparently is"No．
    When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy，most say they are concerned about losing it．A survery found an overwhelming pessimism about privacy，with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is"slipping away，and that bothers me．"
    But people say one thing and do another．Only a tiny fraction of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy．Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths（收費站） to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements．And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards．Privacy economist A lessandro Acauisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will surrender personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon （優(yōu)惠券）．
    But privacy does matter-at least sometimes．It's like health：When you have it，you don't notice it．Only when it's gone do you wish you'd done more to protect it．

    （1）What does the author mean by saying the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked？

    A．People tend to be more frank with each other in the information age．
    B．In the 21st century people try every means to look into others'secrets．
    C．People's personal information is easily accessed without their knowledge．
    D．Criminals are easily caught on the spot with advanced technology．
    （2）What would psychologists advise on keeping good boundaries？

    A．There is always something you shouldn't reveal．
    B．You should not always have good relationship with your friends and so on．
    C．All friends should open their hearts to each other．
    D．There should be fewer disputes and questions between friends．
    （3）Why does the author say"we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret"？

    A．Modern society has finally evolved into an open society．
    B．Many search engines profit by revealing people's identities．
    C．There are always people who are curious about others'affairs．
    D．People leave traces around when using modern technology．
    （4）According to the passage，privacy is like health in that
    ．
    A．people will make every effort to keep it．

    C．is is something that can easily be lost

  • 2．Being "young" is associated with all the good things in life-beauty，hope，and energy.But youth also has negative associations-impulsiveness，troublemaking，and irresponsibility.This negative side seems to be what society focuses on more，which is why young people have mostly been considered as idle and difficult.
      But when it comes to Generation Z-those born between 1995 and 2010-this stereotype doesn't seem to apply anymore.
       In Japan，for example，Gen Zers are less likely to buy on impulse，but take into consideration more a product's true value."They're looking at the companies，not just the products，" Masahiko Uotani，CEO of Japanese cosmetics company Shiseido，told Bloomberg."They're asking，'Are they really delivering value to the society？Are they promoting diversity and inclusiveness？'"
       Gen Zers are also more grounded than we've expected them to be.According to a recent survey by Bank of America，more than half of young adults aged between 18 and 23 said they were planning to buy a house within five years.And they're not just saying it-they are willing to make sacrifices for it，including getting a second job and saving money for a down payment instead of spending it on a vacation.
       "Despite their young age，this group is pragmatic and actively planning for their future，" D.Steve Boland，head of Consumer Lending at Bank of America，told USA Today."They have a clear vision of how they are willing to help themselves in order to make it happen."
       Social issues are also at the center of concern of Gen Zers，who take themselves as a changing force of the world.In India，for example，young people who have just reached the voting age are eager to vote for a new leader who is capable of solving problems that matter the most to them，including pollution，unemployment and women's safety.
       As a Gen Zer yourself，what is your plan for the future？

    （1）What do the underlined words "this stereotype" in Paragraph 2 refer to？

    A．Being young is good.
    B．Gen Zers are born after 1995.
    C．The traditional poor impressions on the youth.
    D．The associations with young people.
    （2）We can infer from the third paragraph that
    .
    A．Gen Zers in Japan are picky
    B．Gen Zers are self-centered
    C．Gen Zers care little about products
    D．Gen Zers are wise when shopping
    （3）What's D.Steve Boland's attitude to the Gen Zers？

    A．Approving.
    B．Negative.
    C．Indifferent.
    D．Critical.
    （4）Which of the following words may best describe the Gen Zers？

    A．Confident and independent.
    B．Visionary and responsible.
    C．Persistent and down-to-earth.
    D．Active and creative.

  • 3．Fear is an emotion（情感） like others such as happiness，anger，hurt and sadness.We need emotions to process information we receive and decide how to respond.Being afraid of fast cars，for example，is something that might protect us from harm.Being afraid of the consequence of a choice may prevent us getting into trouble.
       Fears in young children commonly center on certain animals like snakes or big dogs.Fears are caused often because of experiences or ideas expressed by others，and at times，the media.Many normal fears during the early years，like men with beards，or large dogs，disappear with age.Those fears relating to personal failure and ridicule （嘲笑） last through adulthood and may need special help to overcome.
       Children's fears are often trivial，but that doesn't mean we should pay no attention to them.They need to be recognized and accepted as real for that child.Only when we help children understand their fears can they grow normally in their ability to deal with them.
       Research shows that as a child grows up，the center of his fears changes a lot.Things like divorce，a teacher who "shouted at me"，people with guns，bullies，big boys，or "making fun of me" top the list of childhood fears.
       We cannot always prevent these experiences from happening，but it's essential that children be allowed to freely express their emotions without judgment.Sympathy and a caring listener will help ease the pain of these fears.Read books and stories to your child about children who have experienced similar fears.This helps children talk about their fears and find ways to handle.With all emotions，fears become less of a problem for children as they gain self-confidence and they find that fear is common and can be dealt with.

    （1）According to Paragraph 2，we can know that fears in young children
    .
    A．only center on frightening animals
    B．a(chǎn)re not born but learned
    C．can make sure of their safety
    D．need special help to deal with
    （2）The underlined word "trivial" in the third paragraph probably means "
    ".
    A．common
    B．serious
    C．harmful
    D．small
    （3）From the passage we can learn that
    .
    A．children with similar fears can communicate easily
    B．children should avoid the media to reduce their fears
    C．fears can be judged according to the environment
    D．some childhood fears may have a lasting influence
    （4）What's the best title for this passage？

    A．Children's Fears.
    B．How to Overcome Children's Fears.
    C．The Kind of Children's Fears.
    D．The Bad Effects of Fears.
