Why
aren＇t
you
curious
about
what
happened?
A)“you

after
our
video,
a
reporter
from
tmz
challenged

commissioner
roger
goodell
the
other
day.
“why
didn＇t
you
have
the
curosity
to
go
to
the
casino
(

)
yourself?
“the
implication
of
the
question
is
that
a
more
curious.
B)
the
accusation
of
incuriosity
is
one
that
we
hear
often
carying
the
suggestion
that
there
is
something
wrong
with
not
wanting
to
search
out
the
truth.
“
have
been
bothered
for
a
long
time
about
the
curious
lack
of
curiosity,
“said
a
democratic
member
of
the
new
jersey
legislature
back
in
july,
referring
to
an
insufficiently
inquiring
attitude
on
the
part
of
an
the
george
washington
bridge
traffic
scandal
“
the
mainstream
media
the
least
curious
about
what
happened?
“wrote
conservative
writer
jennifer
rubin
earlier
this
year
terring
to
the
attack
on
americans
in
benghazi,
Libya.
C)
the
implication,
in
each
case
is
that
curiosity
is
a
good
thing,
and
a
lack
of
curiosity
is
a
problem
are
such
accusations
simply
efforts
to
score
political
points
for
one＇s
party?
or
is
here
something
of
particular
value
about
curiosity
in
and
of
itself.
D)
the
journalist
lan
leslie.
in
his
new
and
enjoyable
book
curious:
the
desire
to
know
and
whyYour
fatter
depends
on
it,
insists
that
the
answer
to
that
last
question
is
yes.
Leslie
argues
that
curiosity
is
a
much-overlooked
human
virtue,
crucial
to
our
success,
and
that
we
are
losing
it.
E)we
are
suffering.
he
writes
from
a“
deficit“
the
word““was
coined
by
horace
walpole
in
an
1854
letter
from
a
tale
of
three
princes
whowere
always
making
discoveries
by
accident,
of
things
they
were
not
in
search
of,
“
worries
that
the
rise
of
the
intemet,
among
other
social
and
technological
changes,
has
reduced
our
appetite
for
aimless
adventures
no
longer
have
we
the
inclination
to
let
ourselves
wander
through
tields
of
knowledges,
ready
to
be
surprised.
instead,
we
seek
only
the
information
we
want.
F)
why
is
this
a
problem
because
without
curiosity
we
will
lose
the
spirit
of
innovation
and
entrepreneurship.
we
will
see
unimaginative
govemments
and
dying
corporations
make
disas-trous
decisions.We
will
lose
a
vital
part
of
what
has
made
humanity
as
a
whole
so
successful
as
a
species.
G)
leslie
presents
considerable
evidence
for
the
proposition
that
the
society
as
a
whole
is
growing
less
curious.
In
the
U.S
and
Europe,
for
example,
the
rise
of
the
internet
has
led
to
a
declining
consumption
of
news
from
outside
the
reader＇s
borders
.But
not
everything
is
to
be
blamed
on
techeology.The
decline
in
interest
in
literary
fiction
is
also
one
of
the
causes
identified
by
Leslie.Reading
literary
fiction,he
says
,make
us
more
curious.
H)Moreover,in
order
to?
be
curious,
“you
have
to
be
aware
of
a
gap
in
your
knowledge
in
the
first
place.
“although
leslie
perhaps
paints
a
bit
broadly
in
contending
that
most
of
us
are
unaware
of
how
much
we
don＇t
know
he＇s
surely
right
to
point
out
that
the
problem
is
growing:
“Google
can
give
us
the
powerful
illusion
that
all
questions
have
definite
answers
I）Indeed,
Google,
for
which
leslie
expresses
admiration,
is
also
his
frequent
whipping
body(替罪羊).
he
quotes
Google
co-founder
larry
page
to
the
effect
that
theperfect
search
engine
willunderstand
exactly
what
i
mean
and
give
me
back
exactly
what
i
want
“elsewhere
in
the
book,
leslie
writes:“google
aims
to
save
you
from
the
thirst
of
curiosity
altogether.
J)
Somewhat
nostalgically(怀旧地).
he
quotes
john
maynard
keynes＇s
justly
famous
words
of
praise
to
the
bookstore:
“one
should
enter
it
vaguely,
almost
in
a
dream,
and
allow
what
is
there
freely
to
attract
and
influence

eye
to
walk
the
rounds
of
the
bookshops,

entertainment.
“if
only!
K)
Citing
the
work
of
psychologists
and
cognitive(
认知的)scientists,
leslie
criticizes
the
re-ceived
wisdom
that
academic
success
is
the
result
of
a
combination
of
intellectual
talent
and
hard
work.
curiosity,
he
argues,
is
the
third
key
factor--and
a
difficult
one
to
preserve,
if
not
cultivated,
it
will
not
survive

Passage
one
Questions
46
to
50
are
based
on
the
following
passage
Aging
happens
to
all
of
us
,and
is
generylly
thought
of
as
a
natural
part
of
life.
It
would
seem
silly
to
call
such
a
thing
a
“disease“.on
the
other
hand,scientists
are
increasingly
learning
that
aging
and
biological
age
are
two
different
things,and
that
the
former
is
a
key
risk
factor
for
conditions
such
as
heart
disease,cancer
and
many
more.
in
that
light,aging
itself
might
be
seen
as
something
treatable,
the
way
you
would
treat
high
blood
pressure
or
a
vitamin
deficiency.
Biophysicist
alex
zhavoronkov
believes
that
aging
should
be
considered
a
disease.
he
said
that
describing
aging
as
a
disease
creates
incentives
to
develop
treatments.
“It
unties
the
hands
of
the
pharmaceutical(制药的)industry
so
that
they
can
begin
treating
the
disease
and
not
just
the
side
effects,
“he
said。
“Right
now,
people
think
of
aging
as
natural
and
something
you
can＇t
control
“he
said.
“in
academic
circles,
people
take
aging
research
as
just
an
interest
area
where
they
can
try
to
develop
interventions.
the
medical
community
also
takes
aging
for
granted,
and
can
do
nothing
about
it
except
keep
people
within
a
certain
health
range.“
But
if
aging
were
recognized
as
a
disease,
he
said,
“it
would
attract
funding
and
change
the
way
we
do
health
care.
what
matters
is
understanding
that
aging
is
curable.
“
“it
was
always
known
that
the
body
accumulates
damage,
“he
added.
“the
only
way
to
cure
aging
is
to
find
ways
to
repair
that
damage.
i
think
of
it
as
preventive
medicine
for
age-related
conditions.
Leonard
hayflick,
a
professor
at
the
university
of
califomia,
san
francisco,
said
the
idea
that
aging
can
be
cured
implies
the
human
lifespan
can
be
increased,
which
some
researchers
suggest
is
possible.
hayflick
is
not
among
them.
“
There
＇re
many
people
who
recover
from
cancer,
stroke
or
heart
disease.
but
they
continue
to
age,
because
aging
is
separate
from
their
disease,
“
said.“even
if
those
causes
of
death
were
eliminated,
life
expectancy
would
still
not
go
much
beyond
92
years.“
46.
what
do
people
generally
believe
about
aging?
a)
it
should
cause
no
alarm
whatsoever.
b)they
just
cannot
do
anything
about
it.
c)
it
should
be
regarded
as
a
kind
of
disease
d)they
can
delay
it
with
advances
in
science
47.
how
do
many
scientists
view
aging
now?
a)
it
might
be
prevented
and
treated
c)
results
from
a
vitamin
deficiency
b)it
can
be
as
risky
as
heart
disease
d)it
is
an
irreversible
biological
proces
48.
what
does
alex
zhavoronkov
think
ofdescribing
aging
as
a
discase?
a)
it
will
prompt
people
to
take
aging
more
seriously.

side
effects
of

参考答案

I
Writing?
As
we
widely
know
that
the
relationship
between
parents
and
children
plays
a
significant
role
in
the
domestic
relationship,
which
not
only
serves
as
crucial
bridge
to
build
trust
and
connection
between
two
generations
but
also
exerts
a
profound
and
subtle
influence
toward
to
children’s
personal
growth.
In
order
to
strengthen
the
relationship,
it
is
imperative
to
cultivate
the
respect
between
generations,
which
not
only
includes
the
respect
to
parents
from
children
but
also
the
other
way
around.
Furthermore,
it
is
sensible
for
the
parents
to
spend
more
time
on
the
company
with
their
children,
enhancing
the
affection
between
each
other.
Finally,
it
is
wise
for
the
parents
to
set
an
example
rather
than
make
demands,
enabling
the
children
to
follow
and
achieve
spiritual
development.
To
sum
up,
the
sound
relationship
between
two
generations
requires
the
integration
of
numerous
measures
derived
from
the
joint
effort
of
parents,
children
and
schools.
