1, why does the author tell us not to be afraid to ask stupid” questions? The author thinks that many apparently na?ve inquiries like why grass is green, or why the sun is round, or why we need 55,000 unclear weapons in the world- are really deep questions. He says when you try to get the answers; you will gain deep understanding of the things. It’s also important to know, as well as you can, what it is that you don’t know, and asking question like the way, he also tells us to ask “stupid”questions requires courage on the part of the asker and knowledge and patience on the part of the answerer, and don’t confine you learning to schoolwork. Discuss ideas in depth with friends, it’s much braver to ask questions even when there’s a prospect of ridicule than to suppress you questions and become deadened to the world around you. 2What are the factors to shift the hero-worship to the celebrity worship? The new forms of media-photography, moving pictures, radio and television are the main factors. The reproduction of photos in newspapers turned famous people into celebrities whose dress, appearance, and personal habits were widely commented upon. Slowly the focus of public attention began to shift away from knowing what such people did to knowing what they looked like. The shift was accelerated by the arrival of moving pictures. Between 1901 and 1974, 74percent of the magazine articles about famous people were about political leaders, inventors, professionals, and businessmen. After 1922, however, most articles were about movie stars With the arrival of television, the faces of the stars became as familiar as those we saw across the breakfast table. We came to know more about the lives of the celebrities than we did about most of the people we know personally. Less than seventy years after the appearance of the first moving pictures, the shift from hero-worship to celebrity- worship was complete. 3 what is the Americans’ attitude towards time? Give necessary examples. In the United States, many people keenly feel the shortness of each life-time. They are aware that once a day in their life is gone, it will never come back. And Americans believe no one stands still. If you are not moving ahead, you are falling behind. So they value time and want every minute to count. This attitude towards time is shown in the fast pace of life in the country .whatever they do they always seem to be in a rush. You find people hurrying to get where they are going. They hurry to eating places for a meal and finish it as quickly as possible. Also Americans do what they can to save time. They produce a lot of labor=saving devices such as clothes-and dish-washers. They rapidly communicate through phone calls. Telex-and email and cut down on personal contacts. 4can you imagine what did barrette think of when he heard Snyder’s whisper “take over ,bos’n? Because of thirst, barrette was almost out of mind. He rose several times and was a constant threat. But he heard Snyder said “take over, bos’n ,he had a strange feeling suddenly. He came to realize he would and must take over the task and be responsible for the rest. As long as he stopped others from the little water, they would always have hopes and wouldn’t die soon. So he picked Snyder’s gun up and decided to hold off the other from the water until night when a ship saved them. 5why parents overindulge their children? There are several reasons to explain why parents overindulge their children. One fairly common reason is that parents who both hold down full-time jobs may feel guilty about the amount of time they spend away from their children and may attempt to compensate by showering them with material possessions. Other parents overindulge, because they want their children to have everything they had while growing up, along with those things the parents yearned for but didn’t get. Still others are afraid of say no to their children’s endless requests for toys for fear that their children will fell unloved or will be ridiculed if they don’t have the same playthings their friends have. 6what are four stages that people go through when they experience situations that are very different from those to which they are accustomed? Stage one is a honeymoon phase, which the new experience is perceived to be interesting, picturesque, entertaining ,and charming. You may notice several superficial differences such as music, food and clothing, and the fresh appeal of the new experience keeps you feeling interested and positive. When you stay in a new environment for a while, you move to stage two-the crisis stage- in which the shine wears off day to day realities sink in. in relationship, you notice annoying habits in a new country , you few polite phrase. If you stick with the experience and try to deal
