5、;a nauseating high of $82,300 in Manhattanthe price was steep nomatter where couples chose to get hitched. All this despite the fact that weddings (andmarriages in genera
6、l, honestly) can be a fairly impractical thing to invest in. Seriously, even 50Cent doesnt spend as much in a day as youre spending on a reception band alone.
7、160;Thinkabout that.So rather than buying into the Marriage Industrial Complex on a union that may or may notwork out, wouldnt it make more sense to save your hard-e
8、arned money by forgoing the bigceremony for the major expenses youre likely to face in married life? You know, like amortgage. Or braces for your wallet-draining children

12、rock the most expensive shoes ofthe season and look great doing it?And while weddings are supposed to be all about the happy couple, everyone knows thats bull,because
13、0;you have to feed your guests and provide them entertainment and put a roof overtheir heads for a couple of hours and likely go into debt doing it.In addition&
14、#160;to simply having fun, there are some more practical ways to spend your weddingpurse as well. For instance, purchasing and providing for a nice house cat rather
15、than droppingmajor dough on finger bling intended for fending off hotties for the rest of your life. Fluffywont care if you bring home someone new every weekendhell
16、just hate everyoneindiscriminately.Passage 2My teenage son recently informed me that there is an Internet quiz to test oneself fornarcissism. His friend had just taken it. “How
17、0;did it turn out?” I asked. “He says he did great!”my son responded. “He got the maximum score!”When I was a child, no one outside the mental health profession talk
18、ed about narcissism.People were more concerned by inadequate self-esteem, which at the time was thought tolurk behind nearly every issue. Like so many excesses of the 197
19、0s, the self-love cult spunout of control and is now rampaging through our culture like Godzilla through Tokyo.A 2010 study in the journal Social Psychological and Person
20、ality Science found that theproportion of college students exhibiting narcissistic personality traits based on their scoreson the Narcissistic Personality Inventory, a widely used
21、;diagnostic test has increased by morethan half since the early 1980s, to 30 per cent.In their book, The Narcissism Epidemic, psychology professors show that narcissism
22、hasincreased as quickly as obesity has since the 1980s. Even our egos are getting fat. This is acostly problem. While full-blown narcissists often report high levels of
23、160;personal satisfaction,they create havoc and misery around them. There is overwhelming evidence linkingnarcissism with reduced honesty and increased aggression. Its notable for occasions&
24、#160;likeValentines Day that narcissists struggle to stay committed to romantic partners, in no smallpart because they find themselves superior.The full-blown narcissist might reply, “So
25、0;what?” But narcissism isnt an either-orcharacteristic. Its more of a set of progressive symptoms (like alcoholism) than anidentifiable state (like diabetes). Millions of Americans
26、0;exhibit symptoms, but still have aconscience and a hunger for moral improvement. At the very least, they really do not want tobe terrible people.A healthy self-love tha
27、t leads to true happiness builds up ones intrinsic well-being, asopposed to feeding shallow cravings to be admired. Cultivating amour de soi requires beingfully alive at
28、this moment, as opposed to being virtually alive while wondering what othersthink. The soulful connection with another person, the enjoyment of a beautiful hike alone, or
29、;aprayer of thanks over your sleeping child could be considered expressions of self-love.中译英Passage 1浙江杭州是风景秀美之地,也是创新活力之城。G20杭州峰会的会标,就是用20根线条,勾勒出一个桥型轮廓,同时辅以“2016年G20”的英文和篆隶“中国”印章。桥,在G20独具含义。曾几何时,全球经济治理为发达国家所垄断。G20是第一个发达国家和发展中国家平等参与全球经济
30、治理的机制,是历史的进步。在这个意义上,G20本身就是一座桥,一座连接历史与未来、发达国家与发展中国家的桥梁。在2016年的杭州,在世界经济发展的当下,桥又有了新的含义。它寓意着对G20成为全球经济之桥、国际社会合作之桥、面向未来的共赢之桥的殷切期望。桥梁线条形似光纤,寓意信息技术应用带来的互联互通,具有强烈的时代感。我们希望,以杭州峰会为桥梁,各国间的联系将更加紧密,世界经济的前景将更加广阔。The city of Hangzhou in Chinas Zhejiang province is know
31、n both for its beautiful scenery andfor being a dynamic city with an innovative spirit. The logo of the G20 Hangzhou Summitfeatures the image of a bridge, drawn
32、;in 20 lines. On top of it are the English for “G20 2016China”, supplemented with the imprint of a traditional Chinese seal bearing the two Chinesecharacters for “China”.
33、Bridge bears a special meaning for the G20. The G20 is in fact the first global mechanism thatallows developed and developing countries alike to take equal part in
34、160;global economicgovernance, something that used to be the monopoly of developed countries. This representsa progress in the evolution of global governance and renders the G20
35、60;a bridge that connectshistory with the future, and developed countries with developing countries.Given the current world economic situation, the bridge bears some new implication
36、0;for theHangzhou Summit. It implies a keen hope for the G20 to become a bridge in the globaleconomy, a bridge that brings parties together in win-win global coopera
37、tion oriented towardthe future. The symmetrically curved lines in the bridge are meant to be reminiscent of fiber-optic cables, referring to an interconnected world in an
38、;information age. It is our hope that theHangzhou Summit will serve as a bridge through which countries will build stronger links witheach other and together open up
39、;broader prospects for the world economy.Passage two纵观世界文明史,人类先后经历了农业革命、工业革命、信息革命。每一次产业技术革命,都给人类生产生活带来巨大而深刻的影响。现在,以互联网为代表的信息技术日新月异,引领了社会生产新变革,创造了人类生活新空间,拓展了国家治理新领域,极大提高了人类认识世界、改造世界的能力。互联网让世界变成了“鸡犬之声相闻”的地球村,相隔万里的人们不再“老死不相往来”。可以说,世界因互联网而更多彩,生活因互联网而更丰富。中国正处在信息化快速发展的历史进程之中。
40、中国高度重视互联网发展,自21年前接入国际互联网以来,我们按照积极利用、科学发展、依法管理、确保安全的思路,加强信息基础设施建设,发展网络经济,推进信息惠民。十三五时期,中国将大力实施网络强国战略、国家大数据战略、“互联网+”行动计划,发展积极向上的网络文化,拓展网络经济空间,促进互联网和经济社会融合发展。我们的目标,就是要让互联网发展成果惠及13亿多中国人民,更好造福各国人民。Looking at the history of world civilizations, humanity has prog
41、ressed along with agricultural,industrial and information revolutions. Each of these industrial and technological revolutions hashad great and profound impact on our way of production
42、160;and life. Today, informationtechnologies represented by the Internet are experiencing rapid changes with each passing day.They have brought about new ways of social production,
43、;created new space for peoples life,opened new horizons of state governance, and enhanced our ability to understand and shapethe world. The Internet has turned the world
44、into a global village where distance no longerprevents people from interacting with each other. Communication is made easier than everbefore. Indeed, thanks to the Internet, our world has become more colorful and people now livea fuller life.China is going through a historic process of rapid application
