题文

Thinking is something you choo to do as a fish choos to live in water. To be human is to think. But thinking may come naturally without your knowing how you do it. Thinking about thinking is the key to critical(批判性的) thinking. When you think critically, you take control of your thinking process（过程）. Otherwi, you might be controlled by the ideas of others. Indeed, critical thinking is at the heart of education. The word “critical” here has a special meaning. It does not mean taking one view against another view, as when someone criticizes another person for doing something wrong. The nature of critical thinking is thinking beyond the easily en--beyond the pictures on TV, the untrue reports in the newspapers, and the faulty reasoning. Critical thinking is an attitude as much as an activity. If you are interested in life and want to dig deeper into it, you are a critical thinker. If you find pleasure in deep thinking about different ideas, characters, and facts, you are a critical thinker. Activities of the mind and higher-order reasoning（推理）are process of deep and careful consideration. They take time, and do not go hand in hand with the fast speed in today’s world: fast foods, instant coffee, and lf-developing film. If you are among the people who believe that speed is a measure（尺度）of intelligence（智慧）, you may learn something new from a story about Albert Einstein. The first time Banesh Hoffman, a scientist, was to discuss his work with Albert Einstein. Hoffman was too nervous to speak. But Einstein immediately made Hoffman feel comfortable by saying, “Plea go slowly. I don’t understand things quickly.” 小题1:Critical thinking is important to us becau if we do not think critically, _______.A．it will be hard for us to think naturally and fastB．we might be controlled by other people’s ideasC．we will follow the ideas of others naturallyD．we might be fooled by other people’s ideas小题2:If you are a critical thinker, you will ________.A．take one view against another viewB．trust the reports in the newspapersC．think deeply about different ideasD．criticize other people for their mistakes小题3: In the last paragraph, “something new” suggests that ________.A．speed can improve intelligenceB．intelligence is not decided by speedC．the smarter you are, the faster you do thingsD．the faster you do things, the smarter you become
