A new Magic Bench designed by Disney Research lets yu interact (互动) with lvely animated (动画的) character—and n special glasses r earphnes are required. Instead, the cmplete envirnment—the seat, the sitter and the cartn characters—is mirrred n a screen ppsite the bench making it pssible fr thers t watch the scene unfld.

“Our gal fr this prject was: hear a character cming, see them enter the space, and feel them sit next t yu,” said Mshe Mahler, principal digital artist at Disney Research. Unlike the traditinal mbile technlgy, ne f whse limitatins is that nly a single user can see its illusin, the Magic Bench allws grups f peple t gather in a single envirnment and cllectively participate in an augmented-reality (增强现实) experience, all at the same time.
In a vide shw, a small cartn dnkey runs int view and kicks the bench, causing sharp sund and making the seated persn jump in surprise. Anther test shws tw peple n the bench, reacting as they feel an animated rabbit skip up beside them and jump up and dwn.

Wuld yu BET n the future f this man? He is 53 years ld. Mst f his adult life has been a lsing struggle against debt and misfrtune. A war injury has made his left hand stp functining, and i he has ften been in prisn. Driven by heaven-knws-what mtives, he determines t write a bk.
The bk turns ut t be ne that has appealed t the wrld fr mre than 350 years. That frmer prisner was Cervantes, and the bk was Dn Quixte(《堂吉诃德》). And the stry pses an interesting questin: why d sme peple discver new vitality and creativity t the end f their days, while thers g t seed lng befre?
We’ve all knwn peple wh run ut f steam befre they reach life’s halfway mark. I’m nt talking abut thse wh fail t get t the tp. We can’t all get there. I’m talking abut peple wh have stpped learning n grwing because they have adpted the fixed attitudes and pinins that all t ften cme with passing years.
Mst f us, in fact, prgressively narrw the variety f ur lives. We succeed in ur field f specializatin and then becme trapped in it. Nthing surprises us. We lse ur sense f wnder. But, if we are willing t learn, the pprtunities are everywhere.
The things we learn in maturity seldm invlve infrmatin and skills. We learn t bear with the things we can’t change. We learn t avid self-pity. We learn that hwever much we try t please, sme peple are never ging t lve us—an idea that trubles at first but is eventually relaxing.
With high mtivatin and enthusiasm, we can keep n learning. Then we will knw hw imprtant it is t have meaning in ur life. Hwever, we can achieve meaning nly if we have made a cmmitment t smething larger than ur wn little egs(自我), whether t lved nes, t fellw humans, t wrk, r t sme mral cncept.
Many f us equate(视……等同于) “cmmitment” with such “caring” ccupatins as teaching and nursing. But ding any rdinary jb as well as ne can is in itself an admirable cmmitment. Peple wh wrk tward such excellence whether they are driving a truck, r running a stre—make the wrld better just by being the kind f peple they are. They’ve learned life’s mst valuable lessn.
12. The passage starts with the stry f Cervantes t shw that .
A. lss f freedm stimulates ne’s creativity
B. age is nt a barrier t achieving ne’s gal
C. misery inspires a man t fight against his fate
D. disability cannt stp a man’s pursuit f success
13. What des the underlined part in Paragraph 3 prbably mean?
A. End ne’s struggle fr liberty.
B. Waste ne’s energy taking risks.
C. Miss the pprtunity t succeed.
D. Lse the interest t cntinue learning.
14. What culd be inferred frm Paragraph 4?
A. Thse wh dare t try ften get themselves trapped.
B. Thse wh tend t think back can hardly g ahead.
C. Opprtunity favrs thse with a curius mind.
D. Opprtunity waits thse with a cautius mind.
15. What is the authr’s purpse in writing the passage?
A. T prvide guidance n leading a meaningful adult life.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。(注意：选E涂“AB”；选F涂“AC”；选G涂余’“AD”)
Last Sunday I was thinking abut the difference between successful peple and thse wh dn’t achieve anything significant. I made an interesting discvery. This difference may at first lk bvius, but the fact is quite the ppsite. 16
Everyne has a purpse behind their actins. If they dn’t, they wuldn’t take actin. 17 When they take actin, at the back f their minds they think abut success that this actin is ging t bring them.
18 What’s the purpse behind yur actins? D yu wrk t thrive(蓬勃发展) r t survive? D yu g t wrk t feed yur family r t create an amazing lifestyle?
Different purpses will result in cmpletely different life experiences. Peple wh wrk t survive are the nes wh fear that sme unexpected bill will arrive. They g t bed wrrying abut mney and unimprtant things. They hate their emplyment but dn’t quit because they dubt their wn ability t create smething greater. I knw this kind f feeling because I was like that nce. That’s a very uncmfrtable state t be in because yu are cnstantly wrried abut insignificant things. 19 Therefre, yu cannt achieve anything great.
Nw there are sme peple wh dn’t accept the “Life is hard” stry and they are fueled by an entirely different purpse.
They wrk t thrive. 20 They have a beautiful visin and they take cnstant actin t make that visin a reality.
A. And they dn’t think abut why smething cannt be dne.
B. Such an attitude invites great pprtunities t yu.
C. It lies in what mtivates peple t take actin.
D. S let me ask yu a few questins.
E. And this makes yu take even mre r better quality actin.
F. This state des nt allw yu t be creative.
G. But successful peple have a cmpletely different purpse behind their actins.

A few weeks ag, when my mm and I were shpping, we ran int my teacher, wh mentined that the schl didn’t have a music teacher t help ur class put tgether a perfrmance fr Winter Fair. And, right then and there, my mm said, “I knw the perfect sng and dance. I’ll teach it t the kids!”
Befre I culd say “Please dn’t,” my mm had agreed t cme t my class every mrning at 9:30 fr a week. Oh, and just t be clear, it’s nt as if she’s a prfessinal entertainer(演员).My parents run a small I grcery stre, and the nly singing my mm des is in the shwer.

“I knw vlunteering is imprtant,” I said. “But culdn’t yu help ut in anther way instead?”
She laughed. “Dn’t be silly. We’ll have great fun!”
