* T5 l  }* p1 z, S' ?6 e* R        In the 1990s, everyone believed that education was the key to economic success. A college degree, even a postgraduate degree, was essential for everyone who wanted a good job as one of those “symbolic analysis”.* b0 T7 Q" _! w8 Z. b3 l4 @
        But computers are proficient at analyzing symbols; it is the messiness of the real world that they have trouble with. Therefore, many of the jobs that once required a college degree have been eliminated. The others can be done by any intelligent person, whether or not he has studied literature.
; Z9 H. M; E, m        This trend should have been obvious in 1996. Even then, American’s richest man was Bill Gates, a college dropout who did not need a lot of formal education to build the world’s most powerful information technology company.
, S. y( j5 {- F7 u4 D: ?+ T% P        Or consider the panic over “downsizing” that gripped America in 1996. An economist quickly point out the rate at which Americans were losing jobs in the 1990s was not especially high by historical standards. Downsizing suddenly became news because, for the first time, white-collar, college-educated workers were being fired in large numbers, even while skilled mechanists and other blue-collar workers were in demand. This should have signaled that the days of eh ever-rising wage premiums for people with higher education were over.3 `+ k  U- U8 q' `( X( g
        Eventually, the eroding payoff of higher education created a crisis in education itself. Why should a student put himself through four years of college and several years of postgraduate work to acquire academic credentials with little monetary value? Theses days, jobs that require only 6 or 12 months of vocational training—carpentry, household maintenance and so on—pay nearly as much as if not more than a job that requires a master’s degree, and pay more than one requiring a Ph. D.5 L; Z4 r6 P9 O' _; O' B  H& {/ D
        So enrollment in colleges and universities has dropped almost two-thirds since its peak at the turn of this century. Today a place like Harvard is, as it was in the 19th century, more of a social institution than a scholarly one—a place for children of the wealthy to refine their social graces and befriend others of their class. 7 F* @) y* N2 g  V( [) p4 X

        When I was four, my parents signed me up to take Saturday-morning enrichment classes at Northwester University. Sometimes I was frustrated, because I felt my parents were making me do something that cut into my time with my friends. I was taking advanced subjects, but I was still just a kid. I felt bad when I said no to Friday-night sleepovers because I had to wake up at 7:30 the next morning. But I also remember coming home in eight grade and feeling so happy about my philosophy class. That’s when I realized how much I’d gained from the investment they’d made in my future.
2 E6 h4 r" p. O! D  g        When I was younger, I took piano, dance and violin. I also played soccer, basketball and tennis. And I had the Saturday classes at Northwestern. Now, at 17, I still have a very full week, which includes being president of the Model UN at my school and tutoring special-needs children.; x  K+ c% n# z, y
        My parents’ involvement made all this possible for me. I especially remember the driving. Until I got my license, my mother was always driving me everywhere. She became even busier as my brother and sister grew older.- \. ?+ D6 K- ^
        Now, I believe it’s important for parents to support and to take an interest in their children. The world is a lot more competitive than it was when my parents were my age. To get into college, you need more than good grades and high scores. You need a deep involvement in extra courses that will set you apart.
6 q& x0 T! ?# L0 z* L* T: \        My activities have helped me focus on my personal goals. Because I was able to study so many areas of interest starting at a very young age, I have learned to push myself to do new things.

Without my parents’ support and encouragement, these would be impossible. 8 e) d' [3 s) C* ?5 f0 U- p

0 {- ?8 L( D8 c0 q0 K& v  T        One day Walt Disney had a vision. It was a vision of a place where children and parents could have fun together. The more Walt dreamed of a “magical park”, the more imaginative and elaborate it became.* `  j6 n% k7 O' r
        The original plans for the park were on 8 acres next to the Burbank studios where his employees and families could go to relax, although World War II put those plans on hold. During the war, Walt had time to come up with new ideas, and creations for his magical park. It was soon clear that 8 acres wouldn’t be enough.
4 u* w5 ^+ W0 }4 \        Finally in 1953, he had the Stanford Research Institute conduct a survey for a 100-acre site, outside of Los Angeles.

        Location was a top priority. The property would have to be within the Los Angeles metropolitan area, and accessible by highway. It would also have to be affordable: Walt’s pockets were only so deep.

        On the morning of September 11th, I boarded the train from Washington Heights in Upper Manhattan just as usual and went to the Body Positive office in the South Street Seaport of Lower Manhattan. While I was leaving the subway at 8:53 am, a man ran down the street screaming, “someone just bombed the World Trade Center.” Those around me screamed and shouted “No!” in disbelief. However, being an amateur photographer, and thinking that I might be able to help out, I ran directly toward the WTC. I stopped just short of the WTC at a corner and looked up. There before me stood the gaping hole and fire that had taken over the first building. I stood there in shock taking pictures, wanting to run even closer to help out, but I could not move. Soon I saw what looked like little angels floating down from the top of the building. I began to cry when I realized that these “angels”—in fact, desperate office workers—were coming down, some one by one, some even holding hands with another. Could I actually be seeing this disaster unfold with hundreds of people around me crying, screaming and running for safety?
7 [% d: h3 Q0 ~$ W        As I watched in horror, another white airline came from the south and took aimat the South Tower. As the plane entered the building, there was an explosion and fire and soon debris (碎片)began to fall aroung me. It has then that I realized that we were being attacked and that this was just not a terrible accidetn. Yet, I still could not move, until I was pushed down by the crowd on the street, many now in a panic running toward the wwater, as far from the WTC as they could possible get. All aroung me were the visual reminders of hundreds of people running in panic. There were shoes, hats, briefcases, pocketbooks, newspapers, and other personal items dropped as hundreds of people ran for safety.

Passage 6
- q( y2 K* U( z; RDogs are social animals and without proper training, they will behave like wild animals. They will soil your house, destroy your belongings, bark excessively, fight other dogs and even bite you. Nearly all behavior problems are perfectly normal dog activities that occur t the wrong time or place or are directed at the wrong thing. The key to preventing or treating behavior problems is learning to teach the dog to redirect its normal behavior to outlets that are acceptable in the domestic setting.
, k, j( e' P, Z3 H: tOne of the best things you can do for your dog and yourself is to obedience train (驯服) it. Obedience training doesn’t solve all behavior problems, but it is the foundation for solving just about any problem. Training opens up a line of communication between you and your dog. Effective communication is necessary to instruct your dog about what you want it to do.
) u: a& S; B% b- w+ t9 f" f# ITraining is also an easy way to establish the social rank order. When your dog obeys a simple request of “come here, sit,” it is showing obedience and respect for you. It is not necessary to establish yourself as top dog or leader of the dog pace (群) by using extreme measures. You can teach your dog its subordinate (从属的) role by teaching it to show submission to you. Most dogs love performing tricks for you to pleasantly accept that you are in charge.
' d& I/ C$ W+ L2 X8 YTraining should be fun and rewarding for you and your dog. It can enrich your relationship and make living together more enjoyable. A well-trained dog is more confident and can more safely be allowed a greater amount of freedom than an untrained animal./ [& W7 ~  W% w% f" T

But when our kids came home asking for the latest designer wear, my wife and I knew we had to say “no” more often than not. Of course, deciding to have no TV in the house was the first real breakthrough; I doubt we would have won this battle without freeing ourselves from its influence.
9 Q' B) q" D4 ~) z* B% x7 B        As a child, I grew up in what I now see was poverty. For the first few years of my life. I ate only the smallest amount. Yet, I would find it hard to imagine a happier childhood. Why? Because my parents gave us children time and attention on a daily basis. For instance, no matter how busy they were, they tried to eat breakfast with us before we went off to school each morning.9 [6 I. ]6 N+ o2 L
        No child should have to live in poverty. But I firmly believe that the happiness of a child does not depend on his or her access to material wealth. After all, it is the love we give our children, and not the things, that will remain with them for life.
% |8 d* H- H" _; R6 Z3 z        Having worked thirty years as a family counselor, I know that parent really do love their children, and want to do what is best of them. But what does it mean to give a child love? Next time you feel that you have failed your kids, and are tempted to relieve those feelings by bringing home gifts, remember that we can’t buy our children’s affection. All they really want, and need, is time and attentiveness, a listening ear and an encouraging word. There are things every parent can provide.

Passage 10& X& B8 z+ \4 ~6 f& I
In Africa and Asia there is a very serious disease called schistosomiasis. It is caused by a tiny worm which can penetrate (穿透) the skin of a human being and cause a potentially serious illness. The larvae (幼虫) of these worms live in certain types of snails (蜗牛). When they are ready, the larvae leave the snails and enter the bodies of men and animals.  d: I3 \6 y+ G/ N  ~
In many African rivers there is a large animal called a hippopotamus (河马). It looks rather like an enormous sausage with short legs and a big mouth. Hippos spend much of their time in the river and they do not seem to serve any purpose. Because of this, some African governments ordered that the great animals should be shot on sight to provide meat for local people. When hunters killed most of the hippos in some areas, the number of cases of schistosomiasis increased rapidly. There were outbreaks of the disease in areas which had not previously experienced it. At first, the health authorities could not understand the reason why the disease had spread. They made investigations and discovered some very surprising facts.
2 L, S0 z/ E( X& H4 G9 j7 k& ZWhen they are in the water, hippos keep the muddy water in motion because they move about frequently. When they climb up on the river bank, they go in single file, making natural channels down which rain water can flow into the river. Without the hippos, mud gathered in the rivers and caused them to run over their banks. At the same time, rain water was unable to drain into the rivers easily, and this also helped to produce floods. Certain types of water snail breed (繁殖) rapidly on flooded land, carrying with them the larvae which spread schistosomiasis./ ?# z7 t5 ]/ p6 O
Now African governments are importing hippos so that Nature can do her work properly and keep the water snails under control. This is one example of what happens when Man interferes with the work of Nature.

4 i  @& r) @. W( @, E5 O        Robot (机器人) devices are put into operation in some applications in which the general public never even notice that the robot has taken over. On the new Victoria Line subway in London the trains drive themselves. This in itself is not new, because for many years the Post Office has used a driverless subway train system in London to carry mail between sorting offices. However, now the reliability (可靠性) of the robot train is at last trusted to the extent that, although a single human staffs the Victoria Line trains, his function is merely one of supervision. There are automatic controls to start and stop the trains, and to control the acceleration (加速度) and the deceleration (减速度). If the signals are set at danger, then the train automatically stops, restarting only when the signal indicates that the track ahead is clear. The human signalmen have been replaced on this line by robot program machines that route all of the trains throughout the week in accordance (一致) with a timetable. The central control room of this line, at Euston, is staffed by two men. However, they only intervene (介入) and take over control in an emergency. Otherwise their task is that of observing the operation of the robot system.2 S& d3 G: D4 N

) V$ {! M1 ?4 y8 e& ?1 \$ AFor some time past it has been widely accepted that babies—and other creatures—learn to do things because certain acts lead to “rewards”; and there is no reason to doubt that this is true. But it used also to be widely believed that effective rewards, at least in the early stages, had to be directly related to such basic physiological (生理的) “drives” as thirst or hunger. In other words, a baby would learn if he got food or drink or some sort of physical comfort, not otherwise.! P$ D, w6 ?1 m/ i" [
It is now clear that this not so. Babies will learn to behave in ways that produce results in the world with no reward except the successful outcome.
0 Q  h3 S8 m; r9 M( }& d# f. g2 \: OPapousek began his studies by using milk in the normal way to “reward” the babies and so teach them to carry out some simple movements, such as turning the head to one side or the other. Then he noticed that a baby who had had enough to drink would refuse the milk but would still go on making the learned response with clear signs of pleasure. So he began to study the children’s responses in situations where no milk was provided. He quickly found that children as young as four months would learn to turn their heads to right or left if the movement “switched on” a display of lights—and indeed that they were capable of learning quite complex turns to bring about this result, for instance, two left or two right, or even to make as many as three turns to one side.
/ \- [  i6 R7 q9 ~3 D/ }Papousek’s light display was placed directly in front of the babies and he made the interesting observation that sometimes they would not turn back to watch the lights closely although they would “smile and bubble” when the display came one. Papousek concluded that it was not primarily the sight of the lights which pleased them, it was the success they were achieving in solving the problem, in mastering the skill, and that there exists a fundamental human urge to make sense of the world an bring it under intentional control.

- J1 _4 J3 ~* T7 b/ U6 s7 E( sAre organically grown foods the best food choices? The advantages claimed for such foods over conventionally grown and marketed food products are now being debated. Advocates of organic foods – a term whose meaning varies greatly – frequently proclaim that such products are safer and more nutritious than others. * v; u8 \) M! v; i" ]/ s1 z
The growing interest of consumers in the safety and nutritional quality of the typical North American diet is a welcome development. However, much of this interest has been sparked by sweeping claims that the food supply is unsafe or inadequate in meeting nutritional needs. Although most of these claims are not supported by scientific evidence, the preponderance (优势) of written material advancing such claims makes it difficult for the general public to separate fact from fiction. As a result, claims that eating a diet consisting entirely of organically grown foods prevents or cures disease or provides other benefits to health have become widely publicized and formed the basis for folklore. ; r$ H  H5 A8 v6 [7 ]/ w, q6 o7 }
Almost daily the public is besieged (围攻) by claims for “no-aging” diets, new vitamins and other wonder foods. There are numerous unsubstantiated reports that natural vitamins are superior to synthetic ones, that fertilized eggs are nutritionally superior to unfertilized eggs, that untreated grains are better than fumigated grains, and the like.& j, @: F# T8 a+ n
One thing that most organically grown food products seem to have in common is that they cost more than conventionally grown foods. But in many cases consumers are mislead if they believe organic food can maintain health and provide better nutritional quality than conventionally grown foods. So there is real cause for concern if consumers, particularly those with limited incomes, distrust the regular food supply and buy only expensive organic foods instead.

- s9 z: x. K  k& j1 XCulture is one of the most challenging elements of the international marketplace. This system of learned behavior patterns characteristic of the members of a given society is constantly shaped by a set of dynamic variables: language, religion, values and attitudes, manners and customs, aesthetics, technology, education, and social institutions. To cope with this system, an international manager needs both factual and interpretive knowledge of culture. To some extent, the factual knowledge can be learned; its interpretation comes only through experience.6 d. i5 ?6 R( p1 u4 ^
  The most complicated problems in dealing with the cultural environment stem from the fact that one cannot learn culture—one has to live it. Two schools of thought exist in the business world on how to deal with cultural diversity. One is that business is around the world, following the model of Pepsi and McDonald’s. In some cases, globalization is a fact of life; however, cultural differences are still far from converging.
8 P1 c0 v3 R. a/ P! `0 s  The other school proposes that companies must tailor business approaches to individual cultures. Setting up policies and procedures in each country has been compared to an organ transplant; the critical question centers around acceptance or rejection. The major challenge to the international manager is to make sure that rejection is not a result of cultural myopia or even blindness.
. s) C" H- O8 i2 s7 Y  Fortune examined the international performance of a dozen large companies that earn 20 percent or more of their revenue overseas. The internationally successful companies all share an important quality: patience. They have not rushed into situations but rather built their operations carefully by following the most basic business principles. These principles are to know your adversary, know your audience, and know your customer.- I& y, t$ I( c' q" D" h+ l) i7 X* I
