20、 completely crushed my leg. It wasnt the drivers fault-there was a pillar that blocked his view. People around immediately took me to the hospital and even though it happened around 9:30 am I was only operated on at 5:30 pm. The doctors tried to save my leg, but after a few days it got infected and
21、it had to be amputated (截肢). When the doctor told me, I asked him, “Why did you take so long? I knew for a while that this would happen.” What got me through all this suffering was acceptance - that this is my fate, and now I can either choose to cry about it, or take it positively and push myself I
22、 chose the latter. In fact, when people used to come to visit me in the hospital and get emotional, I would tell them jokes to make them laugh! So I took the physiotherapy (物理疗法), and began to learn how to walk all over again. My biggest fear was that I wouldnt be able to play badminton, which has b
23、een my passion since childhood - but somehow even while I was facing difficulty in walking I could still play. I began winning corporate badminton tournaments, and on the suggestion of one of my amputee friends, I decided to try out a national level. I went on to win several medals at the national l
24、evel, and this year I won silver in the Para Badminton World Championship held in England. Ive trained for five hours a day, while doing my job as a software engineer, almost completed my training in scuba diving and travelled pretty much all over India.

What can we learn about the author from the passage?A. She began playing badminton after t
27、he accident.B. She was a software engineer before the accident. C. She made friends with some disabled people. D. Her best performance is at the national level.27. Which of the following can best describe the author?A. Determined B. Optimistic. C. Sympathetic D. Courageous.C Many people are hesitant
28、 to step out of their regular roles and routines. The idea of putting yourself in a position where you might fail can be frightening or stressful. But sometimes whats keeping you in one spot may not be your own self-interest. In fact, other peoples wished and the feeling that you “should” stay in th
29、e same place may be weakening your own preferences. Whats holding you back may be compliance (服从), not comfort. Every instance of stepping outside your comfort zone wont lead to an incredible sense of discovery and liberation. But it may happen when you realize that what thought was your comfort zon
30、e is, in fact, your compliant zone - where youve learned to behave in ways that you were expected to behave, perhaps by your parents, or your extended family, and by dutifully fulfilling others expectations, you internalize these behaviors as your own, even if they dont actually reflect who you are.
31、 How can you tell when your comfort zone may actually be your compliant zone? Pinpoint your area of focus. Identify one specific thing to question, whether its something youre unhappy with or something you want to develop. Compare your passions to the activity youre examining. Can you see your own v
32、alues and driving passions in this activity somewhere? If you can, its probably not compliance - or at least not completely. But if you struggle to find yourself anywhere, you may be in the compliant zone, and it might be time to reassess and consider whether a change is in order. Our habits and rou
33、tines are hard to break for a reason: they give us a feeling of stability and bring predictability(可预测性的) to our lives. But avoiding new situations can hold you back. Stepping outside your comfort zone can help you build new skills and gain confidence. And by identifying and escaping your compliant
34、zone, you can discover your “true” self - the part of you that reflects your authentic passions and interests and leads to a more fulfilling life.28.

The study reveals that
38、 environment plays a key role I shaping peoples personalities. While genetics still forms the core of the human psyche(心灵), the research finds that personality traits are “contagious” among children. “Our finding that personality traits are “contagious” among children flies a face of common assumpti
39、ons that personality is ingrained(根生蒂固的) and cant be changed,” said Dr Jennifer Neal, associate professor of psychology at Michigan State University and co-author of the study. “This is important because some personality traits can help children succeed in life, while others can hold them back.” The
40、 researchers studied the personalities and social networks of two pre-school classed for a full school year. One of the classes was a set of three-year-olds, and one a set of four-year-olds. Children whose friends were hard-working or outgoing gradually took on these personality traits over time. Bu
41、t children whose peers were anxious or easily frustrated did not take on these traits. The new study is not the first to explore the contagious effects of personality traits. A 2015 psychology study found that rudeness at work can be contagious as it travels from person to person “like a disease”. R
42、esearchers form Swedens Lund University claimed that even petty (微不足道的) behavior, like not inviting someone to a communal event or spreading rumors, can start the cycle off. The study found that seeing a supervisor being rude to an employee was enough to cause people to be rude to those around them.
43、 Often, those who experienced rudeness would be rude to others. Dr Eva Torkelson, a psychologist at Lund University, said the most common cause of people acting rudely at work was imitating others. “An important finding form our study is that those who behave rudely in the workplace experience stron
44、ger social support, which probably makes them less afraid of negative reactions to their behavior form managers and colleagues.” Dr Torkelson believes companies need to be more aware of the harm that rudeness in the workplace can do, as it can grow and damage the atmosphere in the office.32.
