11、 widespread outbreak of infectious diseases The answer is yes, according to a new book The 10 Golden Rules: Ancient Wisdom from the Greek Philosophers on Living a Good Life. The book is co-authored by Long Island Universitys philosophy professor Michael Soupios and economics professor Panos Mourdouk

12、outas.B The wisdom of the ancient Greek philosophers is timeless, says Soupios. The philosophy professor says it is as relevant today as when it was first written many centuries ago. “There is no expiration (?失效) date on wisdom,” he says, “There is no shelf life on intelligence. I think that things

13、have become very gloomy these day, lots of misunderstanding, misleading cues, a lot of what the ancients would have called sophistry (?狡辯?). The nice thing about ancient philosophy as offered by the Greeks is that they tended to see life clear and whole, in a way that we tend not to see life today.”

14、 Examine your lifeC Soupios, along with his co-author Panos Mourdoukoutas, developed their 10 golden rules by turning to the men behind that philosophyAristotle, Socrates, Epictetus and Pythagoras, among others. The first ruleexamine your lifeis the common thread that runs through the entire book. S

15、oupios says that it is based on Platos observation that the unexamined life is not worth living. “The Greeks are always concerned about boxing themselves in, in terms of convictions (?信念?),” he says. “So take a step back, switch off the automatic pilot and actually stop and reflect about things like

16、 our priorities, our values, and our relationships.” Stop worrying about what you can not controlD As we begin to examine our life, Soupios says, we come to Rule No.2: Worry only about things that you can control. “The individual who promoted this idea was a Stoic philosopher. His name is Epictetus,

17、” he says. “And what the Stoics say in general is simply this: There is a larger plan in life. You are not really going to be able to understand all of the dimensions of this plan. You are not going to be able to control the dimensions of this plan.”E So, Soupios explains, it is not worth it to wast

18、e our physical, intellectual and spiritual energy worrying about things that are beyond our control. “I can not control whether or not I wind up getting the disease swine flu, for example.” He says. “I mean, there are some cautious steps I can take, but ultimately I can not guarantee myself that. So

19、 what Epictetus would say is sitting at home worrying about that would be wrong and wasteful and irrational. You should live your life attempting to identify and control those things which you can genuinely control.” Seek true pleasureF To have a meaningful, happy life we need friends. But according

20、 to Aristotlea student of Plato and teacher of Alexander the Greatmost relationships dont qualify as true friendships. “Just because I have a business relationship with an individual and I can profit from that relationship, it does not necessarily mean that this person is my friend,” Soupios says. “

21、Real friendship is when two individuals share the same soul. It is a beautiful and uncharacteristically poetic image that Aristotle offers.” G In our pursuit of the good life, he says, it is important to seek out true pleasuresadvice which was originally offered by Epicurus. But unlike the modern de

22、finition of Epicureanism as a life of indulgence (?放縱?) and luxury, for the ancient Greeks, it meant finding a state of calm, peace and mental ease. H “This was the highest and most desirable form of pleasure and happiness for the ancient Epicureans,” Soupios says. “This is something that is very mu

23、ch well worth considering here in the modern era. I do not think that we spend nearly enough time trying to concentrate on achieving a sort of calmness, a sort of contentment in mental and spiritual way, which was identified by these people as the highest form of happiness and pleasure.” Do good to

24、others I Other golden rules counsel us to master ourselves, to avoid excess and not to be a prosperous (?發(fā)跡的?) fool. There are also rules dealing with interpersonal relationships: Be a responsible human being and do not do evil things to others.J “This is Hesiod, of course, a younger contemporary po

25、et, we believe, with Homer,” Soupios says. “Hesiod offers an ideawhich you very often find in some of the worlds great religions, in the Judeo-Christian tradition and in Islam and othersthat in some sense, when you hurt another human being, you hurt yourself. That damaging other people in your commu

26、nity and in your life, trashing relationships, results in a kind of self-inflicted (?自己招致的?) spiritual wound.”K Instead, Soupios says, ancient wisdom urges us to do good. Golden Rule No.10 for a good life is that kindness toward others tends to be rewarded. L “This is Aesop, the fabulist (?寓言家?), th

27、e man of these charming little tales, often told in terms of animals and animal relationships,” he says. “I think what Aesop was suggesting is that when you offer a good turn to another human being, one can hope that that good deed will come back and sort of pay a profit to you, the doer of the good

28、 deed. Even if there is no concrete benefit paid in response to your good deed, at the very least, the doer of the good deed has the opportunity to enjoy a kind of spiritually enlightened moment.”M Soupios says following the 10 Golden Rules based on ancient wisdom can guide us to the path of the goo

29、d life where we stop living as onlookers and become engaged and happier human beings. And that, he notes, is a life worth living. 注意：此部分試題請(qǐng)?jiān)诖痤}卡 2 上作答。36.

33、e and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.Attitudes toward new technologies often fall along generational lines. That is, generally, younger people tend to outnumber older people on the

34、 front end of a technological shift. It is not always the case, though. When you look at attitudes toward driverless cars, there doesnt seem to be a clear generational divide. The public overall is split on whether theyd like to use a driverless car. In a study last year, of all people surveyed, 48

35、percent said they wanted to ride in one, while 50 percent did not. The fact that attitudes toward self-driving cars appear to be so steady across generations suggests how transformative the shift to driverless cars could be. Not everyone wants a driverless car nowand no one can get one yetbut among

36、those who are open to them, every age group is similarly engaged. Actually, this isnt surprising. Whereas older generations are sometimes reluctant to adopt new technologies, driverless cars promise real value to these age groups in particular. Older adults, especially those with limited mobility or

37、 difficulty driving on their own, are one of the classic use cases for driverless cars. This is especially interesting when you consider that younger people are generally more interested in travel-related technologies than older ones. When it comes to driverless cars, differences in attitude are mor

38、e pronounced based on factors not related to age. College graduates, for example, are particularly interested in driverless cars compared with those who have less education: 59 percent of college graduates said they would like to use a driverless car compared with 38 percent of those with a high-sch

39、ool diploma or less. Where a person lives matters, too. More people who lives in cities and suburbs said they wanted to try driverless cars than those who lived in rural areas. While theres reason to believe that interest in self-driving cars is going up across the board, a persons age will have lit

40、tle to do with how self-driving cars can become mainstream. Once driverless cares are actually available for sale, the early adopters will be the people who can afford to buy them. 46. What happens when a new technology emergesA) It further widens the gap between the old and the young.B) It often le

41、ads to innovations in other related fields.C) It contributes greatly to the advance of society as a whole.D) It usually draws different reactions from different age groups.47. What does the author say about the driverless carA) It does not seem to create a generational divide.B) It will not necessar

42、ily reduce road accidents.C) It may start a revolution in the car industry.D) It has given rise to unrealistic expectations.48. Why does the driverless car appeal to some old peopleA) It saves their energy. B) It helps with their mobility.C) It adds to the safety of their travel. D) It stirs up thei

43、r interest in life.49. What is likely to affect ones attitude toward the driverless carA) The location of their residence. B) The field of their special interestC) The amount of training they received. D) The length of their driving experience.50. Who are likely to be the first to buy the driverless

44、 carA) The senior. B) The educated.C) The wealthy. D) The tech fans.Passage TwoQuestion 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.In agrarian ( 農(nóng)業(yè)的 ), pre-industrial Europe, “youd want to wake up early, start working with the sunrise, have a break to have the largest meal, and then youd go back to

45、 work,” says Ken Albala, a professor of history at the University of the Pacific, “Later, at 5 or 6, youd have a smaller supper.” This comfortable cycle, in which the rhythms of the day helped shape the rhythms of the meals, gave rise to the custom of the large midday meal, eaten with the extended f

46、amily. “Meals are the foundation of the family,” says Carole Counihan, a professor at Millersville University in Pensylvania, “so there was a very important interconnection between eating together” and strengthening family ties. Since industrialization, maintaining such a slow cultural metabolism ha

47、s been much harder, with the long midday meal shrinking to whatever could be stuffed into a lunch bucket or bought at a food stand. Certainly, there were benefits. Modern techniques for producing and shipping food led to greater variety and quantity, including a tremendous increase in the amount of

48、animal protein and dairy products available, making us more vigorous than our ancestors. Yet plenty has been lost too, even in cultures that still live to eat. Take Italy. Its no secret that the Mediterranean diet is healthy, but it was also a joy to prepare and eat. Italians, says Counihan, traditi

49、onally began the day with a small meal. The big meal came at around 1 p.m. In between the midday meal and a late, smaller dinner came a small snack. Today, when time zones have less and less meaning, there is little tolerance for offices closing for lunch, and worsening traffic in cities means worke

50、rs cant make it home and back fast enough anyway. So the formerly small supper after sundown becomes the big meal of the day, the only one at which the family has a chance to get together. “The evening meal carries the full burden that used to be spread over two meals,” says Counihan. 51. What do we

51、 learn from the passage about people in pre-industrial EuropeA) They had to work from early morning till late at night.B) They were so busy working that they only ate simple meals.C) Their daily routine followed the rhythm of the natural cycle.D) Their life was much more comfortable than that of tod

52、ay.52. What does Professor Carole Counihan say about pre-industrial European families eating meals togetherA) It was helpful to maintaining a nations tradition. B) It brought family members closer to each other.C) It was characteristic of the agrarian culture. D) It enabled families to save a lot of

53、 money.53. What does “cultural metabolism” (Line 1, Para. 3) refer toA) Evolutionary adaptation. B) Changes in lifestyle.C) Social progress. D) Pace of life.54. What does the author think of the food people eat todayA) Its quality is usually guaranteed. B) It is varied, abundant and nutritious.C) It

54、 is more costly than what our ancestors ate. D) Its production depends too much on technology.55. What does the author say about Italians of the old daysA) They enjoyed cooking as well as eating. B) They ate a big dinner late in the evening.C) They ate three meals regularly every day. D) They were e
