GALAXIES (星系) OF THE UNIVERSE

Galaxies are huge groupings of stars, planets, gas and dust. Our sun is in the Milky Way, which

measures about 100,000 light years across. That long thin milky bright shape across the middle of the

night sky consists of about hundreds of billions of stars in our galaxy. Our galaxy is a spiral (螺旋式的)

one, but there are other types.

SPIRAL GALAXIES: There are galaxies that have spiral arms that appear from the center. Our solar

system is located on one of the arms of the Milky Way. Our galaxy has a huge black hole at its

center that billions of stars circled around.

ELLIPICAL GALAXIES: There are galaxies shaped like a huge egg. The stars in these galaxies tend to

be very ancient. Furthermore, the old stars in elliptical galaxies tend to be yellow and reddish, which based

on our understanding of the star evolution, means they are smaller, darker stars.

IRREGULAR GALAXIES: There are many other shapes of galaxies that aren’t spiral or elliptical. They

all fit into the irregular category. They are smaller than spiral galaxies. Like the Large and

Small Magellanic Clouds, they have rather unusual-looking shapes.

21. What can we learn about the Milky Way?

A. There are only stars inside it. B. It’s the biggest spiral galaxy in the universe.

C. There is a black hole at its center. D. It takes 100,000 years to get there from Earth.

22. Which of the following is the main factor in categorizing galaxies?

A. Distance from the sun. B. Size. C. The number of stars. D. Shape.

23. Which of the following galaxies can be classified as an irregular galaxy?

A. The Whale Galaxy — shaped like a whale and similar to the Milky Way in size.

B. The Cigar Galaxy — a long and narrow galaxy that looks like an ashy cloud.

C. Cynus A (3C 405) — the brightest egg shape we can observe.

D. The Sunflower Galaxy — a galaxy with multiple arms spreading from its bright heart.

I always wanted to have an extraordinarily good command of something. I wanted to remain the

best in class—awe-inspiring and tip-top; a world-famous genius, like Michael Phelps, or Mark Zuckerberg.

Unfortunately, my version of reality did not quite line up with this delusional expectation. I was a

good swimmer, but I peaked at the collegiate State Championship level. My academic record was pretty

solid, but I never would have made it into one of those exceptional Ivy League schools.

Though I rose to above-average status in a couple of areas, the disappointing truth was that I would

never amount to anything more than a mid-sized fish in a small pond. The destiny apparently drawn up

other plans.

What drove me crazy, though, was the superstar talent thrown in my face at every turn. Some folks

just appeared to get an unfair share of it. Why couldn’t I be like Bernie Williams, the famed New York

Yankees player who also happened to be a world-class jazz guitar virtuoso (艺术大师)?

Some say greatness is simply a function of devoting the practice time. It is around ten thousand hours,

to be precise, according to author Malcolm Gladwell. I don’t question the theory of committing

extraordinary and considerable efforts to developing one’s professional knowledge, but it seems that the

talent carries much weight alike.

I’ve heard that as people approach middle age, their life satisfaction increases because they begin to

accept the gap between the expectations for themselves and the reality. After a few decades of frustration

without the desired results, we eventually come to terms with how our lives turned out, even if it falls far

short of our idealized youthful expectations.

Hope bends, it seems.

24. What does the underlined word “delusional” in paragraph 2 most probably mean?

A. Realistic. B. Imaginary. C. Disappointing. D. Material.

25. In the passage, the writer thinks of himself as ___________.

A. a world-famous genius B. a world-class virtuoso

C. a mid-sized fish in a small pond D. a student in an Ivy-League school

26. According to the writer, what makes “greatness”?

A. Talent and practice. B. Ten thousand hours of practice.

C. Talent and professional knowledge. D. Extraordinary efforts.

27. Which of the following might be the best title?

A. Hope Bends B. Frustrating Decades C. Practice Counts D. Youthful Expectations

While we may think it feels good to complain, complaining has some bad effects associated with it.

Why is complaining bad? Research indicates that it connects our brain with negativity. The brain is

designed to work efficiently. This means that when we repeat a thought, negative or positive, the nerve

cells form a bridge between each other to pass information at a higher speed. Therefore, the next time we

have a similar type of thought, it is more easily passed. This accounts for why certain thought patterns

eventually evolve into habits.

Yet the harmful effects don’t stop there. A study reveals that complaining causes the hippocampus

(海马区), which plays a vital role in problem-solving, to become smaller. In addition to causing brain

damage, complaining also releases a stress hormone: cortisol, a kind of chemical the body produces when

we meet with some danger. Constantly having a high level of cortisol results in high blood pressure, high

blood sugar, and lower immunity (免疫力).

The ill effects of our complaining aren’t just restricted to ourselves: they also involve those around

us. We tend to mirror the moods of our friends. For this reason, we should be cautious about having

The Milky Way is only one galaxy among a few

hundred million galaxies in our universe (each with

hundreds of billions of stars).
