21、For the first twenty years of my life, I had avoided public speaking wherever possible. I’d seen chances pass me by at school, just because public speaking was my biggest possible fear. And then I was offered the chance to stand for elections(选举) to my dream job—a position on the National Team of AIESEC UK. The problem was, to get the job I had to give several short speeches to 200 people.

I had planned not to go. But something happened. I realized I wanted the dream job more than I feared public speaking. So, I put my name forward. And before I knew it, I was standing outside a room of 200 people, waiting to give the talk of my life. You can imagine my shaky knees ...

And all I could think about was the year before, when a friend of mine had been through the same process(过程). I was watching him as he walked to the front of the room. He looked smart and confident.

“Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,” he said, “I’m really excited to be here and ...” Silence. Nothing. He choked(说不出话来). His speech stopped there. And of course, he didn’t get the job.

So, there I was outside the room, thinking, “Don’t choke.” Soon it was my turn. And I started speaking. The words came out! It was not perfect, but the important thing was that I did it. And you know what that feels like? Exhilarating! I couldn’t believe I got through my biggest possible fear! My heart was still beating after I finished my speaking.

If I could overcome(克服) my biggest possible fear, so could anyone. We just have to find the thing in life that we want more than the fear of public speaking. That’s what encourages us to step beyond our fears. And by the way, yes, I got the job.

【1】What should the author do to get a position on the National Team of AIESEC UK?

A．Attend several lectures.

B．Do some public speaking.

C．Get the support of 200 people.

D．Win first place among 200 competitors.

A．He did badly in a job.

B．He competed with the author.

C．He failed in the election process.

D．He finished his speech with difficulty.

【3】What does the underlined word “Exhilarating” in paragraph 5 mean?

A．Puzzling.

B．Exciting.

C．Moving.

D．Boring.

【4】What does the author want to tell us through his experience?

A．Practice makes perfect.

B．Failure is a way to grow up.

C．Hard work is the secret of success.

D．Dream can push us to go beyond fear.

24、Imagine a world in which there was suddenly no emotion — a world in which human beings could feel no love or happiness, no terror or hate. Try to imagine the consequences of such a transformation. People might not be able to stay alive: knowing neither joy nor pleasure, anxiety nor fear, they would be as likely to repeat acts that hurt them as acts that were beneficial. They could not learn: they could not benefit from experience because this emotionless world would lack rewards and punishments. Society would soon disappear: people would be as likely to harm one another as to provide help and support. Human relationships would not exist: in a world without friends or enemies, there could be no marriage, affection among companions, or bonds among members of groups. Society’s economic underpinnings (支柱) would be destroyed: since earning $10 million would be no more pleasant than earning $10, there would be no incentive (刺激, 动机) to work. In fact, there would be no incentives of any kind, for as we will see, incentives imply a capacity to enjoy them.

In such a world, the chances that the human species would survive are next to zero, because emotions are the basic instruments of our survival and adaptation. Emotions structure the world for us in important ways. As individuals, we categorize (分类) objects on the basis of our emotions. True, we consider the length, shape, size or texture (质地, 纹理), but an object’s physical aspects are less important than what it has done or can do to us — hurt us, surprise us, anger us or make us joyful. We also use categorizations colored by emotions in our families, communities, and overall society. Out of our emotional experience with objects and events comes a social feeling of agreement that certain things and actions are “good” and others are “bad”, and we apply these categories to every aspect of our social life — from what foods we eat and what clothes we wear to how we keep promises and which people our group will accept. In fact, society uses our emotional reactions and attitudes, such as loyalty, morality, pride, shame, guilt, fear and greed, in order to maintain itself. It gives high rewards to individuals who perform important tasks such as surgery, makes heroes out of individuals for unusual or dangerous achievements such as flying fighter planes in a war, and uses the legal penal (刑法的) system to make people afraid to engage in antisocial acts.

【1】Suppose there is no emotion in the world. Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?

A．People would not be able to tell the texture of objects.

B．People would not know what was beneficial and what was harmful to them.

C．$10 million is equal to $10 in a world without emotions.

D．There would be full of lies, arguments and violence.

【2】In can be inferred from the passage that the economic foundation of society is dependent on ________.

A．the ability to make money

B．the capacity to work

C．the stimulus (刺激) to work

D．the categorizations of our emotional experiences

【3】Emotions are significant for man’s survival and adaptation because _______.

A．they provide the means by which people view the size or shape of objects

B．they are the basis for the social feeling of agreement by which society is maintained

C．they encourage people to perform dangerous achievements

D．they produce more love than hate among people

【4】Why are the emotional aspects of an object more important than its physical aspects?

A．They help society use its members for profit.

B．They encourage us to perform important tasks.

C．They help to perfect the legal and penal system.

D．They help us adapt our behaviors to the world surrounding us.

【5】What is the text mainly about?

A．People could only live in a world with emotions.

B．People would always do bad things in the emotionless world.

C．Emotions are very important in the world.

D．Emotions structure the world for us in important ways.
