If you want your life to stand for peace and kindness, it’s helpful to do kind, peaceful things. One of my 16 ways to do this is by developing my own 17 actions. These little acts of kindness are 18 to be of service and reminders of how good it feels to be 19 and helpful.
We live in a rural area of the San Francisco Bay Area. Most of what we see is beauty and 20 .One of the exceptions to the beauty is the 21 that some people throw out of their windows as they are 22 on the rural roads. One of the few drawbacks to 23 the mountainous area is that public services, such as litter collection, are less 24 than those are closer to the city.
A helping action that I practice 25 with my two children is picking up litter in our surrounding area. We' ve become so 26 to doing this that my daughters will often say to me in exciting 27 , "There' s some litter, Daddy, stop the 28 !" And if we have time, we will often pull over and pick it up. It may seem 29 , but we actually enjoy it. We pick up litter in parks, on sidewalks, practically 30 . Once I even saw a complete stranger picking up litter close to 31 we live. He smiled at me and said, "I saw you doing it, and it seemed like a good 32 ."
Picking up litter is only one of an 33 supply of possible helping actions. You might like holding a door open for people, 34 lonely elderly people in nursing homes, or removing snow off someone else' s driveway. Perhaps you might 35 something that seems effortless yet helpful. It' s fun, personally rewarding, and setting a good example. Everyone wins.

Chess-playing machines were a common feature at the 19th century carnivals(狂欢节) .They would take on all competitors and usually wan, but they were all frauds(骗局)with human beings concealed inside.
Two centuries later, the “machine” is real.
A computer programmer Deep Fritz held world champion, Vladimir Kramnik, to a 4-4 tie. In doing so, Kramnik felt just short of avenging (复仇)the 1997 defeat of his predecessor Garry Kasparov at the hands of IBM's Deep Blue.
Deep Fritz is a commercially available product produced by Germany's Chessbase Gmbh. In this match it was running on 8,900 Mhz processors and could analyze 3 million positions a second.
Kramnk admitted he found the match exhausting. “ I need some time to recover. ”he said comparing the match with his 2000 defeat of Kasparov. “The pressure is similar but preparing against a computer is much more difficult. It has all the knowledge and you have to be prepared for all openings. With a human, you know that certain openings don't suit his style and won't happen, but not with a computer. ”
“The games themselves were different,” he said, “Against a computer, you have a feeling that if you make one mistake, it's over. So it's like going through a minefield. You're always watching for tactics, even in a quiet position.”
He also said that computers play faster. “The game has a different rhythm and it puts more pressure on you.”
“The main problem, ”he said, “is that you can never understand its logic. In a human sense, it has no logic. With a human opponent, you feel him and you know what path he will take.”
Chess enthusiasts have been arguing for centuries whether it's an art, a science, a sport or something else.
Kramnik doesn't see the emergence of computers making any difference to this argument. “Chess is very wide. It's not merely these things but a small model of the world. ”
Next spring, Kramnik is scheduled to defend his title as Einstein Classical Chess World Champion against Peter Leko of Hungary. While he welcomes a rematch against Fritz, it's not certain when it will take place.
1．The difficulties of competing with the computer doesn't lie in that ________.
[ ]
A．you can never understand its logic
B．the computer plays faster
C．it has all knowledge and you have to prepare for all openings
D．if you make one mistake, it's over
2．The underlined word “exhausing” ( in Para. 5 ) means ________.
[ ]
A．making something interesting
B．making someone excited
C．making someone tired
D．making something endless
3．Put the following events in the right order:
(1) Garry Kasparov was defeated by Deep Blue .
(2)Chess-playing machines were not real.
( 3 ) After competing with Deep Fritz, Kramnik felt exhausted .
(4)Kramnik's competition with Peter Leko of Hungary.
[ ]
A．(2)-(4)-(1)-(3)
B．(2)-(1)-(3)-(4)
C．(2)-(3)-(4)-(1)
D．(1)-(A)-(3)-(2)
4．What did Kramnik think of the chess?
[ ]
A．It became more and more difficult after the chess-playing machines were invented.
B．Chess is an art, a science, a sport, etc.
C．It's more and more popular, with the computer developing.
D．Chess is a small world which is wide.
