17、t really my aunt, and. out of fear, I never called that to her face. The name always made my father chuckle（轻笑）and my mother look sternly（严厉地）at both of us at me for being disrespectful, and at my father for encouraging my bad behavior. I enjoyed both reactions, so I looked for every opportunity to

18、work for the name into conversation. As a young woman, my mother had worked in the kitchen of a large Victorian farm house owned by Fannie Cratty. Fannie was the last of the Cratty line; she had never married, and had no living heirs（继承人）. My father once told me that it was because she was too mean

19、to share her family wealth or pass it on. Aunt Fannie was noted for her jam, and for never sharing the recipe with another living soul. Even though my mother knew it by heart, as long as Aunt Fannie was alive, she never made the jam without Miss Cratty in our kitchen to direct the process and preser

20、ve the secret. One year, after I had been particularly helpful with the jam-making process. Aunt Fannie gave me a quarter and then made me promise I would never spend it. “Hold onto this quarter, ” she said, “and some day you will be rich. I still have my first very quarter. ” It had obviously worke

21、d for her, so I put that 1938 quarter in a small box. put it in my dresser drawer, and waited to become rich. I now have the blueberry-jam recipe and the quarter from Aunt Fannie. Neither has significantly contributed to my wealth, but I keep them to remind myself to hold onto the valuable things in

22、 life. Money can make you feel rich for a while, but it is your relationships, and your memories of time spent with friends and family, that truly leave you wealthy. And that is a fortune that anyone can build. 24. Where did the “fear” mentioned in the first paragraph come from? A. That years bluebe

25、To make new friends easily. B. Not to put a price on generosity. C. To treasure the time spent with family and friends. D. Not to think of kindness as a burden. CTime and how we experience it have always puzzled us. Physicists have created fascinating theories, but their time is measured by a pendul

26、um（钟摆）and is not psychological time, which leaps with little regard to the clock or calendar. As someone who understood the distinction observed, “When you sit with a nice girl for two hours it seems like a minute, but when you sit on a hot stove, a minute seems like two hours.”Psychologists have lo

27、ng noticed that larger units of time, such as months and years, fly on swifter wings as we age. They also note that the more time is structured with schedules and appointments, the more rapidly it seems to pass. For example, a day at the office flies compared with a day at the beach. Expectation and

28、 familiarity also make time seem to flow more rapidly. Almost all of us have had the experience of driving somewhere weve never been before. Surrounded by unfamiliar scenery, with no real idea of when well arrive, we experience the trip as lasting a long time. But the return trip, although exactly a

29、s long, seems to take far less time. The novelty of the outward journey has become routine. When days become as identical as beads（小珠子）on a string, they mix together, and even months become a single day. To counter this, try to find ways to interrupt the structure of your day to stop time, so to spe

30、ak. Learning something new is one of the ways to slow the passage of time. One of the reasons the days of our youth seems to be full and long is that these are the days of learning and discovery.

34、ck was frozen to death in the icy cold water so that Rose could survive on the floating door alone? It broke many peoples heart. Two decades later, people are still asking the question, “wasnt there enough room on the door for both of them? ”Cameron once responded by saying it wasnt a question of ro

35、om, but buoyancy（浮力） if both of them had tried to stay on the raft, he argued, the whole thing would sink. But several guys from “Myth busters”, an Australian-American science entertainment television program, decided to test the theory themselves. They discovered that if Rose had took off her life

36、jacket to the bottom of the raft, there would have been enough buoyancy to keep both of them afloat. When they presented their findings to Cameron, the director insisted that Jack couldnt be saved. “The answer is very simple, ”Cameron said. “Because it says on page 147 of the script that Jack dies.

37、To Cameron, it was an artistic choice to have the beloved character of millions, Jack drown into the cold sea. Jack had to die because Cameron thought it would be best if we did. “It was an artistic choice, the thing was just big enough to hold her, and not big enough to hold him, ”Cameron said. “I

38、think its all kind of silly, really, that were having this discussion 20 years later. But it does show that the film was effective in making Jack so endearing to the audience that it hurts them to see him die. The film is about death and separation; he had to die. ”Since Jack was doomed to die, Came

39、ron said, it could have happened in a variety of different ways.
