Young boys often dream of superpowers to solve their problems. It was 1933, while the country was still 1
the Great Depression, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster put their 2 down on paper. In the process, they created
the world’s most popular superhero, Superman.
Joe was the artist and sketched all the time, 3 out at newsstands absorbed in magazines, especially
“Amazing Stories,” and then 4 to recreate them at home. Jerry was the storyteller. The idea of Superman
5 upon him in the middle of a sleepless summer night. When the Superman’s origin story started 6 ,
he dashed over to Joe’s place and showed it to him. Then they just sat down, and worked straight out.
As is often the case, when we experience something 7 in life, we deal with the feeling through 8
expression. Jerry’s father had died during a robbery. A young child might 9 that experience by wishing
something could have 10 it. For Jerry, out came the Man of Steel, who was 11 to bullets and
protecting innocent people was his 12 .
The story of Superman has inspired kids for generations. It has 13 their fears and driven their
dreams. Most 14 , the Man of Steel has inspired us all to find our superpower and use them to help
others. Therefore, the next time you are inspired to 15 a friend from being bullied, or help the widow
next door with your superpower smile, thank Joe and Jerry, two awkward high school kids who dreamt up
Superman—making the world a little more safe and fair.

ChatGPT has been everywhere for the last few months. It raises 16 about their impact on everything
happening in our society.
ChatGPT is a natural language processing tool 17 by AI technology that allows you to have human-
like 18 and much more. The language model can answer questions and 19 you with tasks, such as
composing emails, essays, and code.
The 20 to produce frequently accurate responses to a vast range of questions is why it became the
fastest-growing app of all time, 21 100 million users in only two months. The fact that it can also 22
essays, articles, and poetry has only 23 its appeal. It is also equally 24 at coding and productivity
tasks. For the former, its ability to 25 code from natural speech makes it a powerful partner for both new
and 26 coders.
Despite looking very impressive, ChatGPT still has 27 . Such restrictions include the inability to
answer questions that are worded in a 28 way, as it requires rewording to understand the input question.
A bigger limitation is a lack of quality in the 29 it delivers. Another major limitation is that its data is
limited up to 2021. The chat robot does not have any 30 of events or news that have occurred since then.
Lastly, ChatGPT does not provide sources for its responses.

When it came to moral reasoning, we like to think our views on right and wrong are rational. But ultimately
they are grounded in emotion. Philosophers have argued over this claim for a quarter of a millennium without 31
. Time’s up! Now scientists armed with brain scanners are stepping in to settle the matter. Though reason can shape
moral judgment, emotion is often 32 .
Harvard psychologist Joshua Greene does brainscans of people as they study the so-called trolley problem.
Suppose a trolley is rolling down the track toward five people who will die unless you pull a lever (杠杆) that
pushes it onto another track where, 33 , lies one person who will die instead. An easy call, most people
say: 34 the loss of life — a “utilitarian” (实用主义的) goal, as philosophers put it — is the thing to do.
But suppose the only way to save the five people is to push someone else onto the track — a bystander whose
body will bring the trolley to a stop before it hits the others. It’s still a one-for-five 35 , and you still
initiate the action that dooms the one. 36 , now you are more directly involved; most people say it would
be wrong to do this trade-off. Why? According to Greene’s brain scans, the second situation more thoroughly
excites parts of the brain linked to 37 than does the lever-pulling situation. Apparently, the intuitive
hesitation of giving someone a deadly push is more 38 than the hesitation of a deadly lever pull. Further
studies suggest that in both cases the emotional concerns 39 control with more rational parts of the brain.
In the second situation, the emotions are usually strong enough to win. And when they lose, it is only after a tough
40 process. The few people who approve of pushing an innocent man onto the tracks take longer to reach
their decision. So too with people who approve of smothering (闷死) a crying baby rather than catching the
attention of enemy troops who would then kill the baby along with other 41 . Greene explains that our
intuitive dislike to the killing of an innocent gradually evolved to become especially sensitive to visions of direct
physical attack.Princeton philosopher Peter Singer argues that we should 42 our moral intuitions (本能) and ask
whether they deserve respect in the first place. Why obey moral impulses that evolved to serve the “ 43
gene” — such as sympathy that moves toward relatives and friends? Why not worry more about people an ocean
away whose suffering we could 44 relieve? Isn’t it better to save 10 starving African babies than to
keep your 90-year-old father on life support? In the absence of a tough decision-making process, reason may indeed
be a(n) “ 45 of the passions”.

Students at an elementary school in California, with the help of their art teacher, created a telephone hotline

Wearing a caveman mask (面具), Dr. Marzluff walks across the camp at the university. Crows (乌鸦) circle

Beneath the mask,he smiles. Days before, he and his students had 61 cavemen masks caught
crows and 62 plastic bands on to their legs. Then they released the 63 birds.
“We always knew crows 64 us, but could we show it?” says Dr. Marzluff, a professor known
affectionately as the Crowman.
When the researchers walked around campus without masks, the crows they had caught and banded didn’t65 to them. But when the 66 humans walked by while wearing the masks, the crows scolded (责

As the Chinese saying goes, a seed can change the world; a variety can benefit a nation.
Zhang Daorong, who has spent the last 26 years 76 13 new varieties of wheat and contributing to
national food security, has done both. The 50-year-old, who is called the “mother of wheat”, is a 77 at the
Xiangyang Academy of Agricultural Sciences in Xiangyang city.
The research into new varieties requires strict standards and 78 experiments. “The first 79
is to find suitable parental types for a specific cultivation purpose. Then we try a hybrid combination,” Zhangexplained. “After several generations of 80 and selection, and when characteristics remain stable, we

“Generally speaking, a good new 83 should produce high yields, have stable production, and 84
good resistance to bad conditions,” she added. “ 85 , it also should be accepted by the market.”
Zhang added that the team 86 70,000 to 80,000 seedlings (幼苗) each year. All year round they
were busy with 87 experiments on the growth of the new seedlings and making records and analyses.

Has someone ever told you something that made you doubt your own memory or judgment? If so, you may be
a 91 of gaslighting. “Gaslighting” is a kind of psychological abuse to gain 92 over others by
purposely making other people think they’re wrong even when they’re right. The term comes from Patrick
Hamilton’s play in 1938. Lead character Jack Manningham seeks to convince his wife Bella that she is 93 ,
by saying she is imagining the dimming (变暗) of the gas light in their home, when it was actually he who lowered
the brightness of the light.Gaslighting is initially used to talk about what happens in romantic relationships. However, many individuals
also experience gaslighting at work. 94 , a recent survey has found that 58% of the respondents said they
have experienced gaslighting at work. It’s 95 since gaslighting usually involves a power relationship and a
need to control others. In the workplace, the 96 between a boss and his employee can be the perfect
breeding (滋生的) ground for this type of behavior. Your boss might tell you to handle an assignment in a certain
way, but when you do, he gets 97 and says it wasn’t what he wanted. It makes you feel like your memory is
98 . In other situations, your boss may exclude you from a meeting 99 and when you ask him about it,
he might accuse you of being too sensitive instead of answering your question directly.
In order to find out whether your boss’s behavior really 100 gaslighting or he is just a poor
communicator, you could write down your experiences and ask yourself what really happened, what his motives
might have been, and how your emotion was 101 . But always be careful because gaslighters know how to
fly under the radar (雷达). They are skilled at weakening an employee’s confidence and sense of reality in a clever
and 102 way.
To protect yourself, at the end of the conversation with your boss, repeat back what you heard and follow up
with an e-mail restating the main points, 103 the interactions between you two. But don’t get your hopes
high that this will automatically solve the problem, Robin Stern, author of The Gaslight Effect, warns, because it’s
hard to get a gaslighter to 104 his behavior pattern. If things don’t improve, you may want to consider
getting out of the gaslighting situation by looking for a new position. It may be one of the best things you can do for
your 105 well-being.

The term “the imaginary audience” was invented by American child psychologist David Elkind in 1967. It is
defined as an adolescent’s psychological state 136 by the belief that people around are eagerly watching or
listening to him or her. This is because 137 are aware of the physical changes occurring in their bodies. And
they are 138 concerned with how everyone is 139 these changes.
The 140 of the imaginary audience are common. Teens would repeatedly change their clothes to look
141 to others. Or they would follow different ongoing 142 that may help them fit into society. If
wearing checkered shirts and jeans is the current fashion, teens would dress like that just to give a good 143
on their imaginary audiences. Teens also worry about the 144 mistakes they make in social settings. A
blackhead could make an adolescent girl 145 all day as she feels that she is being watched and judged.
However, in reality, there are only a small percentage of people who are actually interested in how somebody else

Though “the imaginary audience” is considered to be a 147 , it is a natural process in which an
adolescent tries to better understand his or her association with the world. As an individual’s perception of the
world 148 , he or she will gain more 149 viewpoints on his or her roles among people, rather
than imaginary ones. Thus, the effects of imaginary audiences will gradually 150 .

trying again. It was a 154 experience.”
Before 155 Waves 4 Women, Erin Jones, a co-founder, recognized that women who had
experienced pressure needed their own safe place to go through the 156 process. “If the learner has

Anxious exam candidates’ problem is the run-up or preparation, not the exam itself.
Exams are always tense and worrying, especially for those of an anxious disposition. The silence of the hall;
the 166 of the clock; the content expression of the person at the neighbouring desk. It therefore seems
167 surprising that those who worry about tests do systematically 168 than those who do not.
Unexpectedly, according to research in Psychological Science by Maria Theobald, it is not the pressure of the exam
which causes the problem. It is the 169 pressure.
What Dr Therobald found was that 170 on the day of the test did not predict exam performance at
all. What predicted it was the level of knowledge a student 171 in the earlier learning activities and the
mock (模拟) exam. Those who 172 well in these also did well in the real thing, 173 how
anxious they were on the day. What actually 174 students were high levels of anxiety during the weeks
before the exam took place. The greater a student’s anxiety in the days before the exam, the lower his or her
knowledge-gain was during that period, leaving that student with less material to 175 during the exam
itself.
This is a positive discovery, for it suggests the anxious might achieve better result by adjusting their 176
when revising. Dr. Theobald notes that test-anxiety is at its worst when students have low 177 of success
and at the same time know that passing the exam is 178 important. To reduce this anxiety, she
proposes a 179 for students to consider as they revise. First, they can raise their belief in their own
abilities by reminding themselves of just how much they know. Second, they can 180 the significance
of the test by reminding themselves that, while it is important, it is not a life or death situation. It really isn’t.
