Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. A. By definition, perfection is the state of mind which drives us to move forwards. B. However, if we can’t relax and enjoy lighter moments, then we become prisoners of our perfectionism. C. To some extent, your answers to these questions reveal your personalities as well as your attitude towards life. D. We often display a desperate need to be right and refuse to acknowledge mistakes or uncertainty. E. The important thing is to learn from our error, forgive ourselves and move on. F. Understanding what drives perfection is the first step toward releasing this self-created obstacle that keeps us stuck. Are You a Prisoner of Perfection?
Do you struggle for a goal that is beyond your reach? Do you hold an idealized vision that is impossible to realize? Are you setting yourself up for failure and shame when you can’t achieve the unachievable? 67
Shame and fear are often the hidden drives of perfection. We believe that if we fashion a perfectly polished personality, flash our intelligence, and perfect our humour, then no one can hurt us with criticism and we’ll win respect and approval.
For the majority of us, the addiction to staying perfect protects us from any sign of being imperfect. 68 We fear that showing shortcomings will expose us to the accusation that we’re weak. We stick to a desire to be right, perfect, and polished, even when it’s obvious that the emperor has no clothes.
Perfectionism keeps us leaning toward the future. We’re constantly evaluating ourselves in order to be better. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to do our best and self-correcting along the way.
69 We get painfully self-conscious and take ourselves too serious. Sadly, the simple pleasure of enjoying the moment and being ourselves are taken away from us.
A cure to perfectionism is to make room for our human shortcomings.We realize that failing at any enterprise doesn’t mean that we are a failure. Without failures, we’ll never learn from our
mistakes; we’ll never move forward in our lives. Those who succeed have made countless mistakes. 70 Being human, perfection is impossible. By accepting ourselves as we are and doing our best, we begin to rid of the shame that drives perfectionism. Section C 67-70. FDBE

D. A robotic bottle-nose dolphin cost four times more than normal dolphins but would last much longer.
E. In nature, dolphins live in close family groups, but in captivity, they're forced to interact with strangers.
Entrepreneurs in New Zealand are working with America designers to develop robotic dolphins that look almost exactly the same as real dolphins. 67 A robotic
dolphin that can nod an answer to a child. It might not sound attractive or may even sound
worrying, but as marine parks around the world are under pressure to stop using real whales and dolphins, the creatures are an attractive alternative, their creators say.
\"Marine parks have been making less money for more ten years because many people think the parks are cruel and because of the cost of live animals, but people still really to learn about and experience these animals,\" said Roger Holzberg, a California designer of the life-size robot bottle-nose dolphins. 68 .
\" We have to persuade marine park owners that these dolphins can make them money, even more money than live animals,\" Holzberg said. 69 On average, bottle-nose dolphins live for less than 20 years in captivity but 30 to 50 years in the wild.

animals instead of live ones. The sample robotic dolphin, Langlotz said, weights more than 270kg. A test audience was unable to guess the dolphin was not real, she added. Animal rights supporters also
welcomed the change, hoping robotic dolphins would replace real ones in marine parks worldwide. 67-70 BFCA

The timing of influenza vaccine production and distribution is unpredictable. B. However, it’s a different story when it comes to influenza, commonly known as “the flu”. C. People should get a flu vaccine before flu viruses spread in the community. D. The virus essentially “changes its coat” — H1N1, H2N3, and so on, as he told the website Healthline. E. He said it takes about two weeks after vaccination for antibodies to develop in the body and provide protection against the flu infection. F. So the vaccines are likely to be updated from one season to the next to protect against the viruses. Guard against Flu Vaccination (接种疫苗) is among the most effective ways to help us prevent diseases. For viruses that don’t change too much — the measles virus (麻疹病毒), for example — getting vaccinated is a once-and-for-all method
to prevent you from becoming infected with the virus. If you had two measles vaccines when you were a child, you will be protected for life.
____67____ It generally peaks between December and February. Flu vaccines cannot
protect us in the long run. There is no permanent immunity, according to Theodore Strange, associate medical director at Staten Island University Hospital in New York. ____68____

Researchers will test thousands of influenza virus samples from patients, according to US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The World Health Organization also suggests three or four influenza viruses that are most likely to spread among people during the upcoming flu season.
But even when a vaccine is developed, getting it can prove to be difficult, as demand tends to exceed supply. ____70____ The availability of the flu vaccine supply does not always coincide with peak demand.

The Art of Man-on-the-Street Interviews
Have you ever observed the busy people of the street? Do they arouse your infinite thinking? The man-on-the-street interview may become a popular word because it is new. The man-on-the-street interview is an interview in which a reporter hits the streets with a cameraman to interview people on the spot. (67) ______________ But with these tips, your first man-on-the-street interview experience can be easy.
When your boss or professor sends you out to do man-on-the-street interviews for a story, think about the topic and develop a list of about ten general questions relating to it. For example, if your topic is about environmental problems in America, you might ask, “Why do you think environmental protection is important in America?” (68) ______________
Hit the streets with confidence. As you approach people, be polite. Say, “Excuse me, I work for a certain well-known TV or radio station, and I was wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic.” This is a quick way to get people to warm up to you.
(69) ______________ If someone tells you she is not interested, move on to the next person. Keep in mind that not everyone wants to be interviewed, so don’t get hung up on it.
Limit your time. Each interview that you get on the street shouldn’t be longer than ten minutes. As soon as you get the answer you need, move on to the next person. Make sure that as you go from interview to interview, you are getting a variety of answers. A safe number of interviews to conduct is about six to ten. (70) ______________
For the media, the ability to increase ratings and influence may be the only meaning they want. In fact, different people have different views towards the interview. Someone says this should be the product of the fast-food information age. Section C 67-70 D E A F

What Is Nonverbal Communication?
A. Finally, nonverbal communication itself carries the impact of a message. B. Finally, we can use nonverbal signals to add to the verbal content of our message. C. Nonverbal messages have been recognized for centuries as a critical aspect of communication. D. All good speakers know how to do this with forceful gestures, changes in vocal volume or speech rate, deliberate pauses, and so on. E. Called turn-taking signals, these gestures and vocalizations (发声) make it possible for us to alternate the conversational roles of speaking and listening. F. The term was introduced in 1956 in the book “Nonverbal Communication: Notes on the Visual Perception of Human Relations”. Nonverbal communication is the process of sending and receiving messages without using words, either spoken or written. Similar to the way that italicizing (斜体) emphasizes written language, nonverbal behavior may emphasize parts of a verbal message.
(67) ______ For instance, in “The Advancement of Learning” (1605), Francis Bacon observed that “the features of the body do reveal the tendency and inclination of the mind in general, but the motions of the facial expressions and parts do not only so, but do further reveal the present humour and state of the mind and will.”
Psychologists Paul Ekman and Wallace Friesen (1969), in discussing the interdependence that exists between nonverbal and verbal messages, identified six important ways that nonverbal communication directly affects our verbal messages. First, we can use nonverbal signals to emphasize our words. (68) ______ Second, our nonverbal behavior can repeat what we say. We can
say yes to someone while nodding our head. Third, nonverbal signals can substitute for words. Often, there isn’t much need to put things in words. A simple gesture is enough. Fourth, we can use nonverbal signals to regulate speech. (69) ______ Fifth, nonverbal messages sometimes contradict (与…矛盾) what we say. A friend tells us she had a great time at the beach, but we’re not sure because her voice is flat and her face lacks emotion. (70) ______ Being upset could mean we feel angry, depressed, disappointed, or just a bit on edge. Nonverbal signals can help to make clear the words we use and reveal the true nature of our feelings.
