10、sponsibilities（责任） of any Chilean teenager. I had good days and bad days I didnt understand.Chuquicamata, my host community（社区）, is a mining camp. When I arrived there, I was scared. It was so different from what I was used to. There were lots of dogs on the streets, and there was no downtown, few s
11、moothly paved streets, and little to do for entertainment（娱乐）. Rain was not seen very often, earthquakes and windstorms were frequent.I had studied Spanish for two and a half years and was always one of the best students in my class. But in my first week in Chile I was only able to communicate and n
12、eeded one person to whom I could explain my shock. I couldnt speak the thoughts in my head and there were so many.Most exchange students experience this like me. Culture shock presents itself in everything from increased aggression towards the people to lack of appetite (食欲). I was required to overc
13、ome all difficulties.As time passed, everything changed. I began to forget the words in English and to dream in Spanish and love Chilean food. I got used to not depending on expensive things for fun. Fun in Chuquicamata was being with people. And I took math, physics, chemistry, biology, Spanish, ar
14、t, and philosophy.But the sacrifices（牺牲，奉献） were nothing compared to the gain. I learned how to accept and to succeed in another culture.

18、and universities in the United States. Yale, Princeton, Columbia and Dartmouth were opened soon after Harvard.In the early years, these schools were much alike. Only young men went to colleges. All the students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin, Greek and Hebrew. Little was known
19、 about science then, and one kind of school could teach everything that was known about the world. When the students graduated, most of them become ministers or teachers.In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later, lawyers could receive their training
20、in Harvards law school. In 1825, besides Latin and Greek, Harvard began teaching modern languages, such as French and German. Soon it began teaching American history.As knowledge increased, Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects. Students were allowed to choose the subjects that
21、 interested them.Today there are many different kinds of colleges and universities. Most of them are made up of smaller schools that deal with special fields of learning.

24、henever we see a button (按钮), we are eager to press it because we know something will happen. This is true in most cases, for example on a doorbell and on the “on/off” button on the TV. But some buttons are actually fake, like the “close” button on a lift.Many people are in the habit of pressing the
25、 “close” button because they dont have the patience to wait for the lift doors to shut. But lifts“close” buttons are a complete scam, at least in the USthe doors will not close any faster no matter how hard you press.It started in the 1990s when the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed in the
26、US, making sure that all lifts stayed open long enough so that people with disabilities could enter. Only US firefighters and repairmen can use the buttons to speed up the door-closing process if they have a code or special keys.But to normal lift riders, the buttons arent completely useless. Accord
27、ing to psychologists, fake buttons can actually make you feel better by offering you a sense of control.“Perceived (能够感知的) control is very important. It reduces stress and increases well-being,” Ellen J. Langer, a psychology professor, said, “Having a lack of control is associated with depression.”E
28、xperts have revealed that a lot of buttons that dont do anything exist in our lives for this same purpose. For example, many offices in the US have fake thermostats (温度调节器) because people tend to feel better when they think they can control the temperature in their workspace.But psychologists found
29、it interesting that even when people are aware of these little “white lies”, they still continue to push fake buttons because as long as the doors eventually close, it is considered to be worth the effort.“That habit is here to stay,” John Kounios, a psychology professor, said, Even though I have re
30、al doubts about the traffic light buttons, I always press them. After all, Ive got nothing else to do while waiting. So why not press the button in the hope that this one will work?”28. What was the authors main purpose in writing the article?A. To describe some different kinds of fake buttons.B. To
31、 analyze(分析) the functions (作用) of fake buttons.C. To explore people different habits when it comes to pushing buttons.D. To explain the advantages and disadvantages of fake buttons.29. What does the underlined word “scam” mean?A. Trick. B. Tool. C. Button. D. Joke.30. According to John Kounios, peo
32、ple who press fake buttons _.A. dont know that what they press is fake B. should give up this habitC. consider what they do to be meaningless D. probably do so to kill time DThis is a talk by a London taxi(出租车)driver.Ive been a taxi driver for nearly ten years. Most London taxi drivers have their ow
33、n taxis.Its a nice job most of time. You meet a lot of people. I always work at night, because there is too much traffic during the day. I live twenty miles(英里)outside London and I go to work at 5:30 in the afternoon.I usually go home between 2 and 3 in the morning.Some very strange things happened
34、late at night .The other day I was taking a woman home from a party .She had her little dog with her. When we got to her house, she found that she had lost her key. So I waited in the car with the dog while she climbed in through the windows.I waited and waited. After half an hour of ringing the bel

39、r habits, then our habits make us. Its such a simple concept（观念，概念）, yet its something we dont always do.I believe that having ONE goal to focus on is much more powerful than having many goals. By putting the belief into practice, I have achieved a lot of personal goals over time. 36 . My answer tak
40、es a little explaining. I try to turn my goals into habits, and in doing so! I put my goals on autopilot (自动化). Turning a goal into a habit means really focusing on it for at least a month. The more you can focus, the more itll be on autopilot. 37 . Youll still do it, but you only have to use minima
41、l（最小的）force to maintain（维持，保持） it, and you can focus on your next goal or habit.Take my marathon （马拉松赛跑）goal as an example. I was just starting running and had the brilliant idea to run a marathon within a year. So that was my goal. 38 . First, I had to make running a daily habit. Second, I had to r
42、eport to people in order to have accountability (负责) so that I could not quit easily. I focused on the daily running habit for about a month, and didnt have any other goals or habits. When the running habit stuck, I started reporting to people I knew and blogging about my running every day.39 . I co
43、uld focus on new goals without having to worry about the marathon. I still had to do the running，of course, but it didnt require constant focus. And eventually, I ran the first marathon in my life. I was able to achieve this because, all year long, I had daily running and accountability habits. 40 ,
44、 so instead of struggling with it daily for an entire year, I focused on it for one month and was able to accomplish it while focusing on new habits and goals.A. I put my marathon goal on autopilotB. At the beginning, it was very difficult for me to achieve this goalC. But in order to achieve it, I
45、broke it down into two habitsD. With this accountability, theres no way I could stop runningE. Once you put it on autopilot，you dont have to focus on it muchF. My readers asked me how I was able to achieve them while working on different projectsG. Once those two habits were established, my marathon
