Thinking is something you choose to do as a fish choose to live in water. To be human is to think. But thinking may come naturally without your knowing how you do it. Thinking about thinking is the key to critical（判断性的） thinking. When you think critically, you take control of your thinking processes(过程). Otherwise, you might be controlled by the ideas of others. Indeed, critical thinking is at the heart of educa­tion.

The word “critical” here has a special meaning. It does not mean taking one view against another view, as when someone criticizes another person for doing something wrong. The nature of critical thinking is thinking beyond the easily seen—beyond the pictures on TV, the untrue reports in the newspapers, and the faulty reasoning.

Critical thinking is an attitude as much as an activity. If you are curious about life and desire to dig dee­per into it, you are a critical thinker. If you find pleasure in deep thinking about different ideas, characters, and facts, you are a critical thinker.

Activities of the mind and higher-order reasoning are processes of deep and careful consideration. They take time, and do not go hand in hand with the fast speed in today’s world: fast foods, instant coffee, and self-developing film. If you are among the people who believe that speed is a measure of intelligence（智力）, you may learn something new from a story about Albert Einstein. The first time Banesh Hoffman, a scien­tist, was to discuss his work with Albert Einstein, Hoffman was too nervous to speak. But Einstein immedi­ately put Hoffman at ease by saying, “Please go slowly. I don’t understand things quickly.”

1.Critical thinking is important to us because if we do not think critically, ______.

A. it will be hard for us to think naturally and fast

B. we might be controlled by other people’s ideas

C. we will follow the ideas of others naturally

D. we might be fooled by other people’s ideas

2.If you are a critical thinker, you will ______.

A. think deeply about different ideas

B. trust the reports in the newspapers

C. take one view against another view

D. criticize other people for their mistakes

3.In the last paragraph, “something new” suggests that ______

A. the smarter you are , the faster you do things

B. the faster you do things, the smarter you become

C. speed can improve intelligence

D. intelligence is not decided by speed

4.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Thinking and Critical Thinking

B. Understanding Critical Thinking

C. Thinking is Natural and Human

D. Thinking Fast Means Intelligence

If you expect to work in the future in the travel industry, you should begin learning Chinese.

That’s because Chinese people spent nearly$258 billion in total on international travel last year. That’s more than twice the combined amount spent on international travel by people from the United States and Germany, the next two biggest-spending nations. The Chinese are relative(相对的)newcomers when it comes to traveling beyond their nation’s borders and only a small percentage of them travel outside of China each year. Given the size of that nation’s population. even that small percentage represents well over 100 million Chinese travelers to foreign destinations.

Yet Chinese citizens flew, on average, just 65 miles last year versus(与……相对)the 227 miles flown on average by US residents(居民), the 285 miles flown on average by Germans, the 271 miles flown on average by those from the United Kingdom, and the 632 miles flown by the average Canadian last year.

China’s high total spending on international travel and its low average number of miles flown on international travel may show that while only a small percentage of China’s residents actually travel outside their homeland, and those who do spend a lot of money don’t go that far. But there are reasons for China’s low average of miles travel on international trips. A small percentage of Chinese now have enough money to travel internationally, though the number of people who do travel outside of China is growing fast every year. Besides, a large percentage of Chinese people traveling abroad stay close to home.

However, as more and more Chinese gain the financial ability to travel internationally and as Chinese become more and more interested in visiting destinations farther and farther away from home, their spending on international travel and the average distances flown will both rise rapidly.

1.Why does the author suggest learning Chinese for the future work in travel industry?

A.Being good at Chinese is a must for future work.

B.Chinese is most commonly used in travel industry.

C.Travel industry requires employees to learn Chinese.

D.China is a big-spending nation in international travel

2.What can we infer from paragraph 3?

A.People from different countries have different preferred destinations.

B.China has a relatively low average number of miles flown on travel.

C.Chinese people are more willing to travel abroad compared with Canadians.

D.People going on a journey around the world hate taking international planes.

3.What are many Chinese people who travel abroad likely to do?

A.Try to save their money. B.Improve their ability to travel.

C.Choose to stay close to home. D.Travel in America and Germany.

4.What does the last paragraph say about the future of Chinese people’s traveling abroad?

A.It’s bright. B.It’s confusing.

C.It’s hopeless. D.It’s unclear.
