Module 1 Deep South Our Body and Healthy Habits(建议用时40分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解AIn 1990, 22-year-old Christopher McCandless gave up his career plans, left behind everyone he knew, donated all his savings to charity, and went off on an adventure, hiking his way through America to Alaska.Of course, this is an unusual story. Most college graduates would not do so. However, studies show that in teenage years, people are more likely to try out new experiences. For example, instead of working his way up the same organisation like his grandfather did, a 15-year-old may dream about becoming a traveller—only to find in his early 20s that this attraction of new places is fading and change is less attractive.The reason why people become less keen to change as they get older may be that people generally have similar life patterns and demands. Most people aim to find a job and a partner. As they get older, they may have young children and elderly family members to look after. These responsibilities cannot be achieved without some degree of steadiness, which means that new experiences and ideas may not have a place in the person’s life. New experiences may bring excitement as well as insecurity, and so most people prefer to stay with the familiar.However, not every individual is the same. A child may want to play a different game every day and get fed up if nothing changes at the kindergarten. Another may play with the same children and toys on every visit. Young children who avoid new experiences will grow up to be more traditional than others. Psychologists(心理学家)argue that those who have more open personalities as children are more open than others might be when they are older and that young men have a greaterinterest in noveltythan women, although as they age, this desire for new experiences fadesmore quickly than it does in women.【文章大意】通过Christopher McCandless的经历引出本文的话题: 青少年更容易承受冒险的生活。
