One night recently, I was driving down a two-lane highway at about 60 miles an hour. A car approached from the 36 direction at about the same speed. As we 37 each other, I caught the other driver’s eye for only a second. I wondered whether he might be 38 , as I was, how dependent we were on each other at that moment. I was relying on him not to fall 39 , not to be put off by a phone conversation, not to cross over into my lane and bring my life to a sudden 40 . Though we had 41 spoken a word to each other, he relied on me in just the same way.
Multiplied a million times over, I believe that is the way the world 42 . At some 43 , we all depend upon one another. Sometimes that dependence requires us 44 not to do something like crossing over the double yellow line. And sometimes it requires us to act 45 , with friends or even with 46 .
As technology 47 our world, the need increases for cooperative action among nations. In 2003, doctors in five nations were quickly organized to identify the SARS virus, which 48 thousands of lives. The threat of international terrorism has shown itself to be a 49 problem, one requiring coordinated action by police and intelligence forces across the world’ We must recognize that our fates are not ours 50 to control.
In my own life, I’ve put great stock in 51 responsibility. 52 , as the years have passed, I’ve also come to believe that there are moments when one must rely upon the good faith and judgment of 53 . So, while each of us faces the case of driving alone down a 54 road, what we must learn is that the approaching light may not be a threat, but a shared moment of 55 .

In this modern world, we rush around all day with no time for stillness. And when we are 48 to be still, we're in line for something, or waiting at a doctor's appointment, or on a bus or train. This comes at a 49 : we lose that time for consideration, for observing and listening. We lose peace. And 50 yet: sometimes no action is better than too much action at all. You can run around crazily, but get nothing done. Take a moment to think about how you spend your days? Are you always 51 through your schedule?
Is this how you want to spend your life? If not, take a moment to be still. Don't think about what you have to do, or what you've done already. 52 be in the moment. Then after a minute or two of doing that, consider your 53 , and how you'd like it to be. See your life with less movement and less rushing. See it with more stillness and more peace. It's pretty simple: all you have to do is sit still for a little bit each day. Once you've got 54 to that, try doing less each day. Find happiness now, in this moment, instead of waiting for it.
Value the stillness. It's a treasure and it's 55 to us, always.

It’s the place where smart people make smart machines work even smarter. It’s also in the heart of sunny California, a great place to start a family and raise kids. What could be better?
But something is happening to their children. Up until the age of two they develop normally. But then everything seems to go backwards. The children become locked into their own small world, unable to communicate at all.
They call it the “curse(詛咒)of Silicon Valley,” but the medical name for the condition is autism(自閉癥). It used to be thought that autism was a kind of mental illness. Now doctors are sure that it is a neurological disease transmitted genetically. It seems that the people leading the communications revolution are having children who cannot communicate at all.
But even the parents have trouble communicating. Asperger’s Syndrome is a mild version of autism. People who have it are highly intelligent and often brilliant with numbers or system but have no social skill. This very combination of symptoms makes Asperger’s sufferers into ideal computer professionals.
The Asperger’s sufferer has always been a well—known figure in popular culture. He or she was the eccentric but dedicated scholar or the strange uncle or auntie who never married. But the high numbers of such people in Silicon Valley mean that they can meet others who understand them and share their interests. And while they might not be personally attractive, they can earn truly attractive amounts of money. They can get married and have kids. Unfortunately, many of the children of two Asperger’s parents seem to be developing serious autism.
There is little anyone can do. It takes hours of work just to make autistic child realize that anyone else exists. And there is no cure in sight. Some argue that no cure should be found. “It may be that autistics are essentially different from normal people, but that these differences make them invaluable for the evolution of the human race,” says Dr. Kirk Whilhelmsen of the University of California. “To eliminate the genes for autism could be disastrous. ”
It seems that the children of Silicon Valley are paying the price of genius.
【小題1】What does Dr Kirk Whilhelmsen think of autism?
A.It is disastrous to society. |
B.It is not completely a bad thing. |
C.It is a punishment to those working in Silicon Valley. |
D.People with autism should never marry. |
A.It is believed to be a king of mental illness that can be cured. |
B.People with autism can’t find people sharing their interests. |
C.They do not care about the presence of others. |
D.They are a burden for the society. |
A.Because autistic people live in Silicon Valley. |
B.Because many people working in Silicon Valley have autism children. |
C.Because people with autism will be driven out of Silicon Valley. |
D.Because people with autism are not personally attractive and not liked by others. |
A.Asperger’s sufferers are ideal computer professionals. |
B.Asperger’s sufferers never get married and have children. |
C.Asperger’s sufferers are ashamed of themselves and locked into their own world. |
D.Asperger’s sufferers can be beneficial to society if they are cured. |

Historically, the term “fair trade” has meant many things. The Fair Trade League was 36 in Britain in 1881 to restrict 37 from foreign countries. In the United States, businesses and labor unions 38 “fair trade” laws to construct構(gòu)建what economist Joseph Stiglitz calls “barriers to imports.” These so called “anti-dumping(反傾銷)” laws allow a company that 39 a foreign one of selling a product below cost to request that the government charge收費(fèi)special taxes to protect it from “unfair” 40 .
Such dark protectionist thoughts are far from the 41 of the organizers of the United Kingdom’s annual “Fairtrade Fortnight”. Their 42 aim is to raise the price paid to developing-country farmers for their 43 by cutting out the inflated profits虛抬利潤of the middlemen on whom they 44 for getting their goods to distant markets. Fair-trade products 45 cocoa, coffee, tea, and bananas do not compete with domestic European production, and 46 do not have a protectionist motive(動機(jī)).
This is how it works: In 47 for being paid a guaranteed price and meeting “agreed labor and environmental standards” (minimum wages, no farm chemicals ), poor-country farming cooperatives(合作社) receive a FAIRTRADE mark for their products, given 48 by the FAIRTRADE Labeling Organization. This mark 49 supermarkets and other businesses to sell the products at a higher than 50 price . Third-world farmers get their income increased, 51 first-world consumers get to feel virtuous: a marriage made in heaven.
The fair-trade movement, 52 in the 1980’s, has been growing rapidly. In a significant breakthrough in 1997, the British House of Commons 53 to serve only fair-trade coffee. By the end of 2007, more than 600 producers’ organizations, 54 1.4 million farmers in 58 countries, were selling fair-trade products. Today, a quarter of all bananas in UK supermarkets are sold under a FAIRTRADE mark. But FAIRTRADE-labeled products still represent a very 55 share—typically less than 1%—of global sales of cocoa, tea, coffee, etc.
