When a rather dirty, poorly dressed person kneels at your feet and puts out his hands to beg _36____a few coins, do you hurry on, not ___37___ what to do, or do you feel sad and hurriedly ___38___ some money?

It seems ___41___ not to give some money to beggars.

__42____, most of the world’s great religions order us to be open-hearted and ___43__what we have with those less lucky than ourselves. But has the world changed? Maybe what was morally right in the old days, ___44___ one knew exactly who in the village had suffered misfortune and needed help, is no longer the best idea. Quite a few people will not give to beggars. Let us look at their ___45__.

First, some believe that many city beggars dress up ___46___ to look pitiable and actually make a good ___47___ from begging. Giving to beggars only encourages this sort of evil(惡行). __48___, there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beer, wine or drugs. Thirdly, there is the opinion__49____there is no real excuse for begging. One might be poor, but that is no reason for losing one’s sense of ___50___ and self-dependence.

Related to this is the opinion that the problem should be handled by the government __51____ordinary people. Some people think beggars should go to the local government department and __52____ help.

It is hard to come to any final conclusion: there are various __53___and we must __54___ them differently. A few coins can save a life in some situations, and even if the money is wasted, that does not take away the moral goodness of the__55____.

  It is difficult to imagine what life will be like without memory. The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions(感覺、知覺), the bases for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory.

  Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use. It includes not only “remembering” things like arithmetic or historical facts, but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves. Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile. Memory is also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat.

  Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computers, for example, contain devices from storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being. The instant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 “words”―ready for instant use. An average U. S. teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However, this is but a fraction(部分、片斷) of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored. Consider, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.
