Public speaking is a kind of way to manipulate others.

Making your way gloomily to the airport after an action-packed holiday, it is easy to feel the days have flown by all too quick. But 【M1】______ there is no need to worry about because once you return to the daily 【M2】______ grind your break will suddenly seem like it lasted for a lifetime. So say psychologists who believe that the effect is thanks to the 【M3】______ different methods the brain uses to judge the passage of time. Learning to manipulate our perception of time could make our lives feel fuller and reassure these who feel that the years slip by faster as 【M4】______ they grow older. In a normal fortnight an ordinary person only accumulates 【M5】______ between six to nine new memories because so much of what we do 【M6】______ is routine. But on the holiday we can build up that number of 【M7】______ memories in a single day because everything we experience is new, meaning that when we look back it will seem to have lasted much longer than it really did. The same happens because we get older and time starts to speed 【M8】______ up. There are fewer memories of new things, and we do the same things over and over. 【M9】______ People who complain that years seem to whizz past with increasing speed could slow things down by making the most of our 【M10】______ weekends and breaking up their daily routine. Taking a different route to work, getting off the bus a stop early or avoiding having the same sandwich for lunch every day could make life seem a little slower.

How many ways can be used to stipulate the force majeure clause?

Unlike any other creature on this planet, humans can learn and under stand, without having experienced. They can think themselves into other peoples places. Of course, this is power that is morally neutral. One might use (1)______ such an ability to manipulate or control, just as much as to understand or sympathy. (2)______ And many prefer to exercise their imaginations at all. They choose to re- (3) main comfortably within the bounds of their own experience, never trouble (4)______ to wonder how it would feel to have been born other than they are. They can refuse to hear screams or to peer inside cages; they can open their minds and (5)______ hearts to any suffering that does not touch them personally; they can refuse to know. I might be attempted to envy people who can live that way, except (6)______ that I do not think they have any fewer nightmares than I did. Choosing to (7)______ live in narrow spaces leads to a form. of mental agoraphobia, and that brings its own terrors. I think the willfully imaginative see more monsters. They are (8)______ often more afraid. What is more, those who choose not to empathise enable real monsters. For without ever committing to an act of outright evil our- (9)______ selves, we collude with it, through our own apathy. One of the many things I learned at the end of that Classics corridor down which I ventured at the age of 18, in search of something I could not then define, was this, written by the Greek author Plutarch: What we achieve inwardly will change out reality.

听力原文： Your assignments this term will be to write two major research papers. One of the most important things about writing a research paper is giving proper credit for your sources of information. Failure to do this is called plagiarism, which is a form. of dishonesty.

Plagiarism is a kind of stealing or at least an unauthorized borrowing of someone else's ideas. Sometimes inexperienced students will plagiarize unintentionally, and then be surprised when the teacher won't accept their papers, or gives them a failing grade.

The best way to avoid unitentional plagiarizing is to be very careful in gathering your information. As you take notes on books and magazine articles about the topic you've selected, first try to assimilate the information thoroughly. Secondly, write it down in your own words. This is called paraphrasing. If you do a good job of paraphrasing, you'll capture the main idea from your source without actually using any phrases from it. Most of your notes should probably be paraphrases. However, occasionally you may find something you wish to quote directly in your research paper. In this case, be sure that you copy the quotation precisely in your notes and enclose it in quotation marks. That way when you're finalizing your research paper, you'll be able to remember which of your notes are directly quoted. You can incorporate them appropriately and give the original author proper credit.
