At the time, they were in Connecticut on vacation, so they didn’t know what kind of ____67____ they were going to face when they got home to Texas.

In a letter he wrote in 1884, Mark Twain complained that “Telephones, telegraphs and words are too slow for this age; we must get something that is faster.” “We should communicate by thought only, and say in a couple of minutes what should have ballooned into ____81____ in an hour and a half,” said him.
Despite the progress the previous century brought for our understanding of both language and the brain, we are no closer to telepathy(心灵感应), communication from one mind to another by ____82____ means, than we were in Twain’s time. The reason is that the telepathy we’ve been promised, the sort imagined by Twain, and ____83____ in countless movies and TV shows, is, for the time being, groundless.
“Good old-fashioned telepathy” (GOFT) involves a direct transfer of ____84____ from one mind to another. It has fascinated people for good reasons. It removes the ____85____ of language. With GOFT, we no longer need to put each concept into words or to ____86____ someone’s language. You know instantly what one means as the former channel of communication, language, is not at all necessary. The ____87____ of language is the central feature of GOFT. It is what enables science-fiction writers to imagine humans and aliens from other planets communicating telepathically despite not sharing a language. But can it really come true with current science and technology?
Besides, GOFT promises genuine communication. However, ____88____ is universal. We all have experiences of saying one thing, only to be understood as saying something else. Because language is so flexible, it is also easy to lie or ____89____ oneself.   We aren’t even certain if Bob’s expression could be in line with what he believes in a year’s time.
These weaknesses have driven people to look for alternatives and finally inspired inventions of artificial languages trying to remove misunderstanding. Of course, one day when technology allows, a direct thought-to-thought transfer seems the ____90____ solution.
Many of us have the confidence that we can think faster than we can speak or write. Having to rely ____91____ on language to communicate, however, is depressing. Therefore, the ____92____ of adding new direct brain-to-brain communication channels is exciting. By channels of this kind, our brains can be “____93____ ” and allowed to be committed to other ____94____ practices instead of conveying messages.   New brain-to-brain channels have the potential to increase ____95____, turning us into super-actors, handling so many tasks in a short period of time as we cannot yet imagine.

Living in Mexico, I struggled with the language.

What _____123_____ me was the puppy was probably four months old, and we were in our late seventies. I don’t think old people should adopt young animals.

Some of my earliest memories involve sitting with my dad in his study every night. I’d watch as he put his personal items away, among which was a jade green comb. Every night, he would smile, ____126____ me the comb and say, “Be a good girl and help Daddy clean it, OK?” I was ____127____ happy to do it. At the age of five, this kind of task brought me such joy. I would ____128____ turn the tap on, and then brush the comb with a used ____129____ as hard as I could. ____130____ that I’d done a good job, I would proudly return the comb to Dad. He would smile at me, and ____131____ the comb on top of his wallet.
About two years later, Dad left his sales job and started his own wholesale business. I started primary school. That was ____132____ things started to change.

Two days before my birthday last year, Dad came home earlier. _____140_____ the evening of that day, I helped him carry his bags into his study.

A few years ago，I spared a couple of hours from busy academic learning to work in a video store on a daily basis. An elderly woman walked into the store with a younger woman who I ____146____ was her daughter. The daughter was displaying a serious case of ____147____ checking her watch every few seconds. The older woman began to ____148____ the DVDs on the nearest shelf. After ____149____ hesitation, I walked over and asked if I could help. The woman smiled and showed me a title on a crumpled (皱巴巴的) piece of paper. Obviously a person looking for it knew a little about ____150____.
Rather than rushing off to ____151____ the DVD for the woman, I asked her to walk with me so I could show her where she could find it. Something about her deliberate movements ____152____ me of my own mother, who had passed away the previous Christmas. The woman seemed ____153____ for the unrushed company and casual conversation. We found the movie, and I ____154____ her to the queue at the cash register. When the older woman was paying in cash, I walked over to the younger, who was still tapping her foot at the front of the store.
“Is that your mom?” She rolled her eyes and said, “Yeah.” There was ____155____ in her reply, half sigh and half complaint. Still watching the mother, I said, “____156____ some advice?” “Sure,”said the daughter. I smiled to show her I wasn’t ____157____. I answered her ____158____ expression by saying, “When she’s gone, it’s the little ____159____ that’ll come back to you. Moments like this.

An hour later, we were in the forest, ducking under fallen trees and climbing over other obstacles. Suddenly, the guide pointed up with _____174_____. “Look! The tagimoucia!” he shouted. I couldn’t believe we’d found it — I also couldn’t see a thing, as my glasses were _____175_____ up in the mist.

Have you ever had a song stuck in your head and, no matter how hard you tried, you could not get rid of it? The song played on and on, whether you were loading the dishwasher, weaving in and out of traffic, or attempting to ____176____ your mind at the start of yoga class.
Having a song stuck in one’s head, known as an earworm, is an experience that over 90% of us have on a ____177____ basis. We’re more likely to catch an earworm after we stop focusing, in moments when the working memory is ____178____, when we’re relaxed, when work is finished or when we’re a bit sleepy.
Certain songs are ____179____ than others, and so more likely to “auto repeat” in your head. There are certain musical characteristics that make songs more likely to become earworms, such as if the piece is repetitive, if there is a longer duration of certain notes, if ____180____ between the notes are smaller. ____181____, we know that mood can have an impact, with some people reporting that they always get the same earworm when they feel good, or people experiencing a fast-tempo earworm when they are ____182____. And of course familiarity with a song is a key ____183____. Songs that you don’t know very well are less likely to pop up as earworms.
If you’ve had enough of your earworm and need to stop it in its tracks, you would be well warned not to try to block the song out, but rather to ____184____ accept it. A determined effort to block the song out may result in the very _____185_____ of what you want. According to psychologist Daniel Wegner, _____186_____ the song may make your brain keep playing it over and over again. To get rid of an earworm, you may be best served by simply _____187_____ it, accepting it, and leaving it alone to let this phenomenon ends up weakening itself little by little.
Some people try to _____188_____ themselves from the song, and it works. You can try reading a book, listening to a different song or even playing an instrument. Others _____189_____ the tune in question, because it is commonly believed that earworms occur when you remember only part of a song; hearing the entire song may stop it. Neurologists (神经学家) point out that it’s recommendable to chew gum to reduce the _____190_____ of an earworm because jaw movement interferes with musical memory. However, it’s important to note that this phenomenon usually lasts less than 24 hours.

“Challenge-based learning is often focused on the challenges that have global impact. The students, who _____191_____the challenge, often don’t know what the solution will be. The facilitator is keeping them from _____192_____a solution too early, and encourages to analyze the challenge from multiple points of view, and from different scientific perspectives,” says Vilma Sukacke, a researcher at Kaunas University of Technology (KTU), Lithuania.
Such a learning approach is very fitting to sustainability education, which, according to various scholars,_____193_____a contextual, problem-oriented, reflective, interdisciplinary (跨学科), collaborative, participatory and empowered learning environment. In other words, educators have to _____194_____from more traditional teacher-centred education to becoming instructional designers of student-centred education.
Aiming to evaluate the _____195_____of such approaches, a group of researchers from Lithuanian, Danish, German, Portuguese and Spanish universities conducted a systematic literature review,_____196_____the three active learning methods, i.e.. project, problem and challenge-based learning according to the ADDIE (analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation) framework.
_____197_____the educators agree that problem-based learning (PBL), project-based learning (PJBL) and, more recently, challenge-based learning (CBL) are efficient in teaching the students to _____198_____technology in real-life situations and improving their transversal (横向) skills, such as teamwork, communication and conflict resolution, the application of these methods in the classroom may be challenging for both sides.
“In my practice, I have noticed that sometimes students are _____199_____innovative learning methods and are considering them as a sort of a game. As these classes often take place in a play full environment, full of different pencils, colorful notes and building blocks, it’s difficult for the students to take them _____200_____. Therefore, it’s very important to_____201_____the methods and the goals to the learners very clearly,” says Professor Saule Petroniene from KTU Faculty of Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities, a co-author of the study.
According to her, to successfully apply unconventional teaching methods is a challenge for a beginning teacher. However, this effort _____202_____, especially when students continue their activities outside school and focus on solving _____203_____social problems.
Rescarchers believe that the _____204_____of CBL, PJBL, and PBL requires a paradigm (范式) shift, where organization, staff and students change their view to education and learning. In this process, both teachers and students need to apply new skills and _____205_____roles that they might not have needed before.
