Everyone has good days and bad days.
Sometimes, you feel as if you’re on top of the world. But occasionally you feel horrible, and you lose things and you cannot focus on your schoolwork.
For more than 20 years, scientists have suggested that high self-esteem (自尊) is the key to success. Now, new research shows that focusing just on building self-esteem may not be helpful. In some cases, having high self-esteem can bring bad results if it makes you less likeable or more upset when you fail at something.
“Forget about self-esteem,” says Jennifer Crocker, a psychologist (心理学家) at the University of Michigan, US. “It’s not the important thing.”
Feeling good
Crocker’s advice may sound a bit strange because it is good to feel good about yourself.
Studies show that people with high self-esteem are less likely to be depressed, anxious, shy, or lonely than those with low self-esteem.
But, after reviewing about 18,000 studies on self-esteem, Roy Baumeister, a psychologist at Florida State University, has found that building up your self-esteem will not necessarily make you a better person.
He believes that violent and wicked (邪恶的) people often have the highest self-esteem of all. He also said: “There’s no evidence that kids with high self-esteem do better in school.”
Problems
All types of people have problems. People with high self-esteem can have big egos (自我) that can make them less likeable to their peers(同龄人), said Kathleen Vohs, a psychology professor at Columbia University.
People with high self-esteem tend to think more of themselves, Vohs says. People with low self-esteem are more likely to rely on their friends when they need help.
What to do
Researchers say it is best to listen to and support other people. Find positive ways to contribute to society. If you fail at something, try to learn from the experience. “The best therapy (药方) is to recognize your faults,” Vohs says. “It’s OK to say, ‘I’m not so good at that,’ and then move on.”
1.The new research comes to the conclusion that high self-esteem ________.
A. is not important at all
B. may not be the key to success
C. has taken on a different meaning
D. does not help you do better at school
2.One of the conclusions of the new research is that ________.
A. people with high esteem tend to be proud
B. people with high esteem usually do not seek other’s help
C. feeling good about oneself doesn’t mean you lead a happier life
D. people with low esteem are often more popular
3.The underlined part “a better person” in the passage probably means a person who is ______.
A. helpful and supportive B. gentle and modest
C. likable and successful D. friendly and kind
4.From the text, we can infer the best therapy mentioned in the last paragraph is mainly for people ________.
A. of all kinds
B. with low self-esteem
C. with high self-estee
D. who are focusing on building self-esteem

Time, wars and natural disasters have a bad effect on the artistic and cultural objects in the world. More than 1,000 years ago, a fire destroyed the Library of Alexandria in Egypt. In 1755, an earthquake destroyed Ribeira Palace in Lisbon, Portugal, along with artworks inside. In modern times, the Taliban destroyed the huge Bamiyan Buddhas in Afghanistan.
As we all know, museums play an important part in our daily liv es. They store evidence of culture and history and exhibit great works. A major goal of most museums in the world is to make sure that important historical objects do not disappear forever. The Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy, holds 1,250 pieces of ancient Greek and Roman sculpture. These objects have inspired artists and historians for many years. So the museum is working to make a complete and permanent (永久的) record of the artworks.
The project is an effort of both the museum and the scientists from Indiana University in the United States. The team is using technology to create digital copies (数字复制品) of Uffizi’s ancient sculptures.
The process is called photogrammetry (摄影制图法). At one time, this process was slow and expensive. But not anymore, said Professor Robert Frischer. He said photogrammetry is now much faster and cheaper. Now they can gather the 3-D data on a life-size sculpture in half an hour and they can process the data just in a couple of hours.
The images allow the viewer to examine the sculpture from all sides. And when the viewer zooms in (用变焦距镜头放大), the image becomes clearer. The Uffizi hopes to have the collection completed and available on the Internet by 2020.
1.What can we learn about the world’s artworks?
A. Some of them have been destroyed.
B. They were destroyed by accident.
C. They were not protected by humans.
D. Most of them are kept in Afghanistan now.
2.Why do Uffizi Gallery and Indiana University work together?
A. To build the largest museum.
B. To create long-lasting artworks.
C. To introduce some ancient sculpture.
D. To encourage more artists and historians.
3.What can we learn about photogrammetry?
A. It is still expensive.
B. It is a time-saving step now.
C. It does great harm to the artworks.
D. It was invented by Robert Frischer.

One side effect of globalization and the related phenomenon of greatly increased mobility is that the traditional definition of “foreigner” has passed its sell-by date.
Is a European who has lived in China longer than in his home country, becoming fluent in the language and culture in the process, still a foreigner in China, or has he become more of a foreigner in his own home town? What about a Beijinger who did her schooling in Canada and then lived and worked in mainstream society there for another 20 years while raising a family, who has no intention of returning to China? Does she think and act like a foreigner? What do we mean by this label(标签)?
When I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago, the faces you would see during a walk through a local shopping mall back in the 1960s and 1970s included almost none of Asian descent. Today the same malls are full of Asian faces, and a glance at the ranks of top scoring students in local schools reveals lots of Asian surnames.
To some extent, this is no great surprise in the American context, because America is a land of immigrants, and a cultural melting pot. Apart from the native American Indians, Americans are (or were), in some way, all foreigners anyway. Absorbing a large number of immigrants is an established pattern in American history.
In most places, the traditional foreigners were people who didn’t speak or read the local languages well, were unfamiliar with local customs and lifestyles, often engaged in relatively third-class work, and certainly not the type of people you would want your sons or daughters to marry. But, nowadays, a foreigner down the street may have better SAT scores than you did, or higher degree from a better university. He might also be your son’s or daughter’s next employer.
The traditional role models are getting mixed up, and it looks like this is just the beginning of a new chapter. Today, the whole thing has totally changed. It’s not about where people are from or what color their skins are. It’s about who they are, what values and skills they bring, and how they think.
1.By mentioning a European and a Beijinger, the author tends to tell us ____.
A. it’s no longer proper to define foreigners according to their birthplaces
B. the label of foreigners can never be removed
C. most foreigners can do well in learning languages
D. it’s impossible for a foreigner to get recognition abroad
2.What can be inferred from the 3rd paragraph?
A. In 1960s and 1970s, Asians didn’t shop in Chicago.
B. Today, more and more Asian travelers like to shop in Chicago.
C. There are more Asian immigrants today than in the 1960s and 1970s in Chicago.
D. Most Asian students do well academically in the schools in Chicago.
3.The underlined part in paragraph 1 has the closest meaning to____.
A. the term “foreigner” should be redefined
B. the term “foreigner” should no longer be used
C. there are no more foreigners in the world today
D. the term “foreigner” is not proper to define people
4.What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Globalization and mobility caused more and more immigrants.
B. The standards of defining “foreigner” have thoroughly changed.
C. America is a cultural melting pot.
D. Immigration is a global social phenomenon.

Envelope Budget
From McDonald's to Sonic, fast food had a bad effect on my waistline and my budget. It was nothing to run to a drive-through to pick up a cold drink or a quick bite to eat. It was so easy to use my card for a small purchase. For me, I got a lot of satisfaction from fast food.
One day I sat down and calculated that I was spending a surprising $40 a week on fast food. This was a lot of iced coffee and hamburgers! Instead of reducing my guilty pleasures, I decided to give myself a strong budget to reduce my consumption. Every Monday I placed an envelope with $20 in my purse. That was my fast food budget for the entire week. If there was anything left over at the end of the week, it was mine to save or spend. If I spent all of the money during the week, there were no more fast food stops that week.
The budget made me more mindful of my purchases. Instead of purchasing a large drink from Sonic, I would purchase a small. It was sill satisfying but not nearly as pricey. Instead of eating a whole meal, I would pick the part that I actually wanted. Many days, the thought of hanging onto the money for a special purpose meant more to me than the instant satisfaction of fast food. I never really felt unhappy because it was a conscious choice to spend or save with each purchase.
Envelope budget kept me honest. I had a clear idea how much money was spent each week on fast food purchases. I started to bring my lunches more often to save more money for the week. It was a fun challenge to see how much I could save every week.
Changing the way I spent on fast food not only helped my budget, but improved my weight. In the first month I was able to get rid of 5 pounds by simply changing the way I approached spending on fast food. Now I am more likely to bring my lunch than to buy it. I am not upset, but empowered to make positive choices to improve my life.
1.According to Paragraph 1, the author _____________.
A. was fond of fast food very much
B. had no time to cook for herself
C. lived with a small amount of money
D. got some benefits from using her card
2.The author set her envelope budget to _____________.
A. buy fast food at a good bargain
B. save money to buy more fast food
C. get rid of the habit of eating fast food
D. make fast food spending under control
3.We can infer from the last paragraph that _____________.
A. it is unusual to make some changes
B. the budget means a pressure on life
C. envelope budget is good for health
D. it is hard to enjoy a healthy lifestyle
4.What is the passage mainly about?
A. Why the author became addicted to fast food.
B. How envelope budget changed the author's life.
C. How fast food controlled the author's behavior.
D. Why the author took envelope budget seriously.
