Critical thinking is the ability to think clearly and rationally about what to believe or what to do. According to a report on the World Economic Forum (2016), critical thinking, creativity, and their practical application*are widely accepted as the top three skills that
young people need to possess*in their future career.
A good critical thinker usually takes the following steps before he decides what to do. Whenever he needs to do something, he would, first of all, reason. He checks why he needs to do it and whether he really needs to do it. Then, analyze. He tries to find out what
it really is and the best way to do it. After that, evaluate. He makes sure whether he is able to do it and how to do it well. Finally, he makes the decision and takes action. Take the “Double 11” (a popular online shopping day in China) as an example. A few days beforeit, he checks carefully what he needs and whether he really needs them, and makes a shopping list. He goes to the online shops to compare the quality and the prices of the things that he is going to buy. He compares the shops that sell these things. Then he checks
whether he can afford them and in which shops he is going to buy them. Although it takes him some time to make the decisions, he would not regret after the shopping.
Then what would happen if he didnt think critically before he made the decisions? After the crazy “Double 11”, there were usually a lot of complaints on the Internet. There were regrets about buying more things than they needed. There were complaints about
the poor quality and the prices of the things they bought. There were also complaints because they received wrong things or simply received nothing. There were all kinds of regrets and complaints. Why so? They had not thought critically before they made the
decisions.
Critical thinking helps you make wiser decisions. It helps you avoid wasting time, money and so on. Therefore, do look before you leap.
33.According to the passage, critical thinking is a thinking skill that .
A.helps make better choices B.will appear in the future
C.helps make quick decisions D.makes us spend more money
34.In Paragraph 2, how does the critical thinker analyze the things he may buy?
A.He checks what he needs to buy.
B.He studies the quality and the prices.
C.He makes a proper shopping list.
D.He checks how much money he has.
35.The underlined word “complaints” means that the people .
A.are not satisfied B.are not confident
C.are not interested D.are not responsible
36.Which of the following examples is the use of “critical thinking”?
A.Daming did a new science experiment before reading instructions.
B.Linglings parents became very angry when they knew her bad marks.
C.After looking at the other teams weak points, the coach made a new plan.
D.After hearing the strangers words, the girl followed him into a supermarket.

Stuffy Pete sat down on a bench in the New York City Park. It was the third bench to the left as you enter the park from the east.
Every Thanksgiving Day for nine years, an Old Gentleman had come to find Stuffy there at one in the afternoon. He led Stuffy to a restaurant and watched him eat a big dinner. He was trying to make it a tradition.
Stuffy had just come from a dinner so big that he had almost no power to move. How he expected that gentleman would not come this year! Then his eyes grew wider and his breath stopped.

They said goodbye, as they did each year, at the door.
Stuffy went around the first corner, stood for one minute, and fell. He was picked up and taken to a hospital.
An hour later the Old Gentleman was brought to the same hospital.
“That nice old gentleman over there,” a doctor was talking to another. “Do you know whats wrong with him? Hes almost dead for the need of food. A very proud old man, I think. He told me he hadnt eaten anything for three days.”
37.How many Thanksgiving dinners had the Old Gentleman invited Stuffy to have?
A.One. B.Two. C.Nine. D.Ten.
38.Why did Stuffys eyes grow wider and his breath stop when he saw the Old Gentleman coming?

B.He was afraid to have another big dinner.
C.He felt excited to see the gentleman was fine.
D.He was surprised to meet the gentleman there.
39.What does the underlined word “it” in the story refer to?
A.The gentlemans need of food.
B.Stuffys effort to finish all the food.
C.Stuffys thanks to the gentleman.
