After years of observing human nature，I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance：curiosity and discontent.I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either.And I have never known an average man who had both.The two belong together. Together，these deep human urges count for much more than ambition.Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground.Like Galileo，all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent，"Why？Why？Why？" Fortunately，curiosity and discontent don't have to be learned.We are born with them and need only recapture them. "The great man，" said Mencius，"is he who does not lose his child's heart." Yet most of us do lose it.We stop asking questions.We stop challenging custom.We never doubt. We just follow the crowd that desires only the calm and restful average.The crowd encourages us to occupy our own little corner，to avoid foolish leaps into the dark，to be satisfied.We will have to force ourselves to do just the opposite so as to waken our curiosity and discontent. How should you start，modestly，so as not to become discouraged？I think of one friend who couldn't arrange flowers to satisfy herself.She was curious about how the experts did it.Now she is one of the experts，writing books on flower arrangement. One way to begin is to answer your own excuses.You haven't any special ability？Most people don't；there are only a few geniuses.You haven't any time？That's good，because it's always the people with no time who get things done.Harriet Stowe，mother of six，wrote parts of Uncle Tom's Cabin while cooking.You're too old？Remember that Thomas Costain was 57 when he published his first novel，and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78. However you start，remember there is no better time to start than right now，for you'll never be more alive than you are at this moment.（1）In writing Paragraph 1，the author aims to ____ .A.give an exampleB.present an argumentC.propose a definitionD.make a comparison（2）What does the example of Galileo tell us？ ____ A.Trial and error leads to the finding of truth.B.Creativity results from challenging authority.C.Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore.D.Ambition is more important than curiosity and discontent.（3）What can you do to recapture curiosity and discontent？ ____ A.Lead a life of adventure.B.Follow the fashion.C.Develop a questioning mind.D.Observe the unknown around you.（4）What could be the best title for the passage？ ____ A.The Keys to AchievementB.Never Too Late to LearnC.urious Minds Never Feel ContentD.Reflections on Human Nature

Our company offers a full range of Smart Home products, focusing on making your home safer and more convenient, and saving energy. All of the products are simple, even if what happens behind the scenes is clever. The Smart Home Controller is the heart of the system. It communicates with all your other products, and lets you control them with the easy-to-use mobile app for phones, even if you're stuck on the motorway 300 miles from your home Wi-Fi. The Radiator Thermostat (散热器恒温控制器)lets you control your heating away from home or from the sofa. And unlike some smart heating systems, you can set the temperature per room, helping you save even more energy and money. The Smart Plug offers similar advanced control, from TVs and game controllers to the lamp in the kids' room. You just don't need to worry about whether you left something on after leaving home. You can just check on your phone, and switch things off from the app. If you want to save energy, you might want to buy Starter Kit. This includes two Radiator Thermostats, the Smart Home Controller and Door/Window Contact. These use a sensor (感应器)that lets you know if you've left a window open or if someone tries to break in. That brings us to the other side of the Smart Home: security and safety.
