Seconds later they camecrashing down on my head. At this point, it may have seemed unlikely I would juggle ever again. But I keptpracticing, and after two years I was juggling knives and flaming torches (火把). I even convinced some of myfriends to learn, and we started performing at birthday parties and other events.Years later, the same lesson would help me push through dull and dry statistics classes so that I could go aftermy dream major to become a neuroscientist. My own dreams of becoming a neuroscientist began to decreasewhen I first meet with statistics. I remember sitting in dark college computer labs, working hard on specializedsoftware and having no idea why my homework answers weren’t coming out as expected. I began to question“can I make it as a neuroscientist?” Lessons from my juggling days, however, taught me to keep going.I maintained interest in the field by accepting setbacks along the way to my success. I saw statistics as animportant tool instead of an end to itself. I also started study groups with friends to make statistics homeworkenjoyable. Eventually I joined a research lab for some hands-on experience. Once I needed statistics to answerquestions that really interested me, I was able to better motivate myself to learn them.On a personal level, changing concepts about interest may help us to grow in the face of setbacks.

AlthoughCharles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was.In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their co — operation and support, passing around necessarynutrition “depending on who needs it”.Nitrogen (氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi (真菌) networks, making sure thatall trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. Thishidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons (神经元) in our brains, and when one treeis destroyed, it affects all.Simard talks about “mother trees”, usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. Sheexplains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young treesso they may continue to grow. When humans cut down “mother trees” with no awareness of these highly complex“tree societies” or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.“We didn’t take any notice of it. ” Simard says sadly. “Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees beforedying, but we never give them chance.” If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we couldmake a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.1.The underlined sentence “the opposite is true” in Paragragh2 probably means that trees . A. compete for survival B. depend on each otherC. provide support for dying trees D. protect their own wealth2. “Mother trees” are extremely important because they .A. look the largest in size in the forest B. know more about the complex “tree societies” C. pass on nutrition to young trees D. seem more likely to be cut down by humans3. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to .A. how “tree societies” work B. how trees grow oldC. how forestry industry develops D. how young trees survive4. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Old Trees Communicate Like Humans B. Young Trees Are In Need Of ProtectionC. Trees Contrib
