When your dream isto become a footballer and play for Barcelona, nothing should get inyour

An 11-year-old schoolboy GabrielMuniz, who was born without feel,will fly from his home in

How nice are you? Do you give money to homeless people? Do you offer your seat to someone in

need on a bus?

Many people believe that confident people think more highly of themselves, while those who have

low self-respect think less of their good qualities. However, a new study says it might not be true,

reported The Guardian.

The study was done by Jonathan Freeman, a psychology(心理学) professor from the University of

London, the UK. He found that 98 percent of British people consider themselves to be among the nicest

50 percent of the population.

In the study, Freeman first asked some people to rate(评级) their own niceness. Then he got people

to answer questions like “Do you give directions to strangers?” and “Have you ever donated blood?”.

The results showed that people are not as nice as they think they are. Two thirds of them seldom helped

others carry heavy shopping bags, and only a quarter of them donated blood.

In another study by psychologists from universities in Chicago and Virginia, the US, some people

were shown pictures of themselves. Some pictures had been slightly changed to make them appear more

attractive. When asked to pick the unchanged pictures, people usually chose the more attractive ones.

So, why do we think we’re nicer than we actually are? There are many theories. A popular one says

we unconsciously(无意识地) cheat ourselves, so that we can get confidence without knowingly lying to

ourselves or each other.

How can we solve it? Other studies show that there is a simple way: feedback( 反馈 ). Compare

others’ opinion toward yourself with your own and you will see a clearer picture.

4. What did the new study find?

A. The more confident people are, the more good qualities they have.

B. Most of the people with low-respect are not nice.

C. People with great confidence do not like those with low-respect.

D. People are nicer in their own eyes than they really are.

5. Why did people choose the more attractive pictures of themselves?

A. Because they were not happy with their own looks.

B. Because they wanted themselves to look good.

C. Because they lied to themselves without knowing it.

6. What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. How to be a nice person. B. People’s opinion of their own niceness.

C. Others’ opinions towardyou. D. How to know ourselves well.

For 300 years, the Slims River had been flowing through Canada’s Yukon region. But last year, in

only four days, the water in the big river reduced sharply, which made the river almost disappear. What

happened?

After a year of careful studies, a group of scientists recently said that the sudden change of the

river was caused by climate change. The Slims River used to be a big river, reaching up to 150 metres at

its widest points. It carried melt water from the huge Kaskawulsh glacier(冰川) into the Kluane River,

theninto the Yukon River toward the Bering Sea.

But in spring 2016, there was a sharp melting of the Kaskawulsh glacier because of climate change.

It made the melt water run in a different direction, and into a second river, the Alsek River, then into the

Gulfof Alaska. It is thousands of kilometers away.

In geography, this is called “river piracy”. Although itwas notunusual in ancient times, this is the

first time it has happened under scientists’ noses in modern times. TheSlims River is almost dry now,

which also takes away the clean air in theregion because strong wind blows upallthe dust in the river

bed. Fish have already swum to other rivers. And sheep from Kluane National Park are now coming

down toeatthe fresh plants.

LonnieThompson, a scientist from Ohio StateUniversity,the US,said that we could hardly feel

theeffects of climatechange inour daily life, but the case oftheSlims Rivershows what will happen

when gradualtemperatureincreases.

7. Why did theSlimsRiver almost disappear?

A. Because the airpollutionbrought moreraintoYukon region.

B. Becausetheclimatesuddenly became hotter thanbefore.

C.Because thehuman activities destroyed the banksof the river.

D. Because theKaskawulsh glacier did not exist any longer.

8.Which ofthe following statements is true accordingto thepassage?

A. The Slims River has now become part of Kluane National Park.

B. The airin the region of the Sli ms

ver is

still clean.

C. Climate change has no effect onour daily life.

D. Global warmingcanbring sudden changes tothe environment.

9. In which direction didthe waterrun in 2016?

①the Kaskawulsh glacier ②theGulf of Alaska

③the Yukon River④the AlsekRiver

⑤theBering Sea⑥the Kluane River
