16．My husband came across the program from my father-in-law's high school graduation，90 years ago.It was the Class of1928 and their class motto（格言）was "Build for character，not for fame. "
I'm pretty sure society has done a full reverse on that one.
These days，we have people who are famous for simply being famous.They haven't done anything particularly impressive，but they do take great selfies.
We are all obsessed with fame these days，mainly thanks to social media.All we want is for people to follow us，friend us，like us，or share our posts.We are nearly desperate for fame.
"Build for character，not for fame，is based on the assumption that one is looking up and ahead.That's an encouraging idea，especially today，when most of us have our heads down，looking at the screens of our smartphones.Looking ahead and building for character takes thought and intentionality（意向性）.
One can be intentional in building for fame as well，but fame often relies heavily on the right timing and connections，as well as the creation of a base of fans and supporters.
Character isn't subject to the ideas of others.Character is built with self-discipline（自律），and a willingness to learn from difficulties.Character grows internally（内在地）and needs no applause.
Fame depends on people looking at you，while character is who you are when no one is looking.
Fame often comes with jealousy（嫉妒）a feeling that time is running out or that someone better than you is coming to steal your fans.
Character is marked by feeling content and being generous.There is satisfaction that comes with the reward of achievements，but at the same time，good character willingly holds the door open for others who are also hoping to achieve.
This commencement（毕业典礼）season，speakers will tell new graduates to get out there and build a better world.
The best way to build a better world is to build character，the kind that runs deep and can carry you through life's storms.
Build character with courage，justice（正）and strength.Build character by respecting yourself and respecting others.Build character with kindness，hope and love.Build for character and you will build a better world.
（1）The underlined phrase "has done a full reverse on" in Paragraph 2 probably means.
A．has taken full advantage of
B．has done the complete opposite to
C．has made a good practice of
D．has paid a lot of attention to
（2）People's desire for fame has a lot to do with.
A．the rise of social media
B．the impact of well-known stars
C．their intention to make a difference
D．their satisfaction with their achievements
（3）In the author's opinion， "building for character" requires people to.
A．mind their behavior when being looked at
B．connect with others at the right time
C．look ahead and gladly accept other people's advice
D．behave themselves and readily learn from hardships
（4）Why does the author value "building for character"？
A．It inspires people to achieve more.
B．It honors her family's memory.
C．It enables us to build a better world.
D．It helps us gain respect from other people.组卷：0引用：2难度：0.3

17．In 2017，the BBC documentary Spy in the Wild （《荒野间谍》） gave us a chance to look much more closely into the world of animals through the eyes of "animal spies". （1）
.They "live" together with animals in order to record their lives.
Returning for its second season，Spy in the Wild follows the tradition of the first season while introducing new cameras and robots.（2）.For example，a spy turtle can lay robot eggs，a spy squirrel can gather robot nuts，and monkeys can play with a spy snowball.
In the new season，more than 50 spy robots are sent to study animals in all kinds of environments，from under the Pacific Ocean to the Arctic. （3）.They study the emotional connections that are shared between animals firsthand.For example，a spy penguin was accepted as part of a group in South Georgia Island. （4）."Quite accidentally，our spy creature is at the center of something special，capturing （捕捉到） emotions that have seldom been watched，" series narrator （旁白） David Tennant told CNET.
（5）. "The whole point is …trying to get closer than we ever have before to capture those elusive （难以得到的） moments when they start to show the kind of emotions we have，" director John Downer told PBS.
A.It won lots of praise from the audience.
B.But these spies don't just record everyday goings-on.
C.It uncovers how different we are compared to our animal cousins.
D.With the help of these robots，these "animal spies" can do many things.
E.These spies are actually robots with cameras that look like real animals.
