    What time is it？Most people are pretty accurate in their answer. And if you don’t know for sure, it’s very likely that you can find out. There may be a watch on your wrist; there may be a clock on the wall, desk, or computer screen; or maybe you’re riding in a car that has a clock in the dashboard .
    Even if you don’t have a timepiece of some sort nearby, your body keeps its own beat. Humans have an internal clock that regulates (调节) the beating of our heart, the peace of our breathing, the discharge (排出) of chemicals within our bloodstream, and many other bodily functions.
    Time is something from which we can’t escape. Even if we ignore it, it’s still going by, ticking away, second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour. So the main issue in using your time well is, “who’s in charge？” We can allow time to slip by and let it be our enemy. Or we can take control of it and make it our ally.
    By taking control of how you spend your time, you’ll increase your chances of becoming a more successful student. Perhaps more importantly, the better you are at managing the time you devote to your studies, the more time you will have to spend on your outside interests.
    The aim of time management is not to schedule every moment so we become slaves of a timetable that governs every waking moment of the day. Instead, the aim is to permit us to make informed choices as to how we use our time. Rather than letting the day go by, largely without our awareness, what we are going to discuss next can make us better able to control time for our own purposes.
    小题1:The underlined word “ally” in Para.3 most likely means somebody or something that is____________.
    A．your slave and serves youB．your supporter an helps you
    C．under your control and obeys youD．under your influence and follows you
    小题2:The author intends to tell us that time __________.
    A．could be regulated by a timepiece such as a clock or a watch
    B．could be managed by the internal clock by human bodies
    C．should be well managed for our own interest
    D．should be saved for outside interests
    小题3:In the next part, the author would most probably discuss with you ________.
    A．how to keep up with the timesB．how to make up for lost time
    C．how to have a good timeD．how to make good use of time

    小题1:B

    Knowing how to communicate well needs very personal attention between you and another human being. Is there a better way to learn how to communicate effectively? Yes, there is. Please follow the 3 basic steps below.
    1. Relax and Breathe.
    Whether it’s a business meeting or the first date, the first thing you must do in order to communicate is to relax. When you relax you are in control. You control your reactions and your reactions do not control you. Breathing is central to relaxation. Take a few deep breaths and your body will begin to be more at ease. This will help you apply what you already know about how to communicate well.
    2. Think and you will be prepared.
    Have you ever heard the old saying, "think before you speak"? Well, it is true. By thinking ahead about how the conversation might flow, you will be better prepared, more at ease and more confident.
    3. Follow the flow of the conversation.
    If you are uncomfortable, being silent will only make it worse and make the other person uncomfortable as well. So when all else fails, follow through with small talk until a common topic appears.
    A good way to keep a conversation going is to ask the other person questions. People love to talk about themselves and if you do this they will think very highly of you. Learning good communication skills is not something out of reach. If you make an effort, you will succeed.
    小题1:Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
    A．Preparation and ConversationB．How to Communicate with Anyone You Meet
    C．Personal attention and CommunicationD．How to Keep Your Conversation Going
    小题2:If you want to talk with others successfully, the most important thing you should do is      .
    A．to follow the flow of the conversation.
    B．to take as many deep breaths as possible
    C．to make a good preparation for the conversation
    D．to keep calm and relax yourself fully
    小题3:Why does relaxation play an important part in your good communication?
    A．Because it can help you put your communication skills that you know into use.
    B．Because it will help you organize good sentences for your communication.
    C．Because it can help you keep excited and react quickly in the communication.
    D．Because no one likes to communicate with a nervous person.
    小题4: If you feel uncomfortable, you’d better        .
    A．keep silence in order to give the chance of speaking to others
    B．talk small things until you find a topic you both like
    C．speak freely so as to run across the topic you like
    D．ask questions which you are interested in
    小题5: What’s the meaning of the underlined sentence?
    A．Good communication skills can be learned if you try.
    B．You will be good at communication if you try.
    C．Not all people can learn good communication skills.
    D．Communication skills can be improved easily.

    If you plan on visiting to Fiji, you are probably looking for some fun things to do. Below are four unusual places.
    The Poseidon Resort
    The Poseidon resort is an underwater resort that gives visitors a beautiful view of sea life. This resort covers 255 acres. It’s covered and surrounded by a lagoon (咸水湖) that covers 5,000 acres and is about 90 feet under water, giving you a beautiful view of sea life right before your eyes. This resort even has a hotel for those who would prefer to have the unusual experience of sleeping and waking up to the beautiful scenery all around them.
    The Sabeto Mud Pool
    If you’re looking for something unusual to do, you can’t pass up the mud pool at Sabeto. It is located in a mountain range with a huge group of Geothermal (地热的) pools full of nice, warm mud. Getting down and into the mud in the pool is believed to have benefits for healthy skin. This is unusual, but adults and especially kids will love it.
    Fire Walking
    Fire walking in Fiji is believed to have originated on the island of Beau. Fire walking is when you walk on white-hot stones barefoot. To do this, you have to be mentally prepared for it. Trust me; there is a lot of preparation and strict rules that travelers follow in order to do this safely.
    The Fiji Museum
    The Fiji museum is unusual due to all the amazing artifacts you’ll see dating back 3,000-4,000 years. This museum has a certain attraction that makes it funny—a shoe. It’s been said that a man named Thomas Baker was eaten by the locals several centuries ago and the only thing left was his shoe. This unusual museum is a great idea if you bring the whole family to Fiji.
    小题1:Visitors who have the unusual experience of sleeping at the Poseidon resort can _________.

    In this modern world, we rush around all day, doing things, talking, sending and reading messages. We are always on, always connected, always thinking, always talking. There is no 36 for stillness.
    And when we are 37 to be still because we’re in line for something, or waiting at a doctor’s appointment, or on a bus or train, we often  38 something to do. Some will play with mobile devices, other will read something. Being still isn’t something we’re 39.
    This comes at a   40 : we lose that time for  41 , for observing and listening. We lose peace.
    And   42 yet: sometimes too much action is worse than no action at all. You can run around crazily, but get  43 done.
    Take a moment to think about  44 you spend your days. Are you constantly rushing around? Are you constantly reading and answering  45 checking on the news and the latest stream of information? Are you always  46 through your schedule?
    Is this how you want to spend your  47 ? If so, peace be with you. If not, take a moment to be   48 . Don’t think about what you have to do, or what you’ve done already.   49 be in the moment.
    Then after a minute or two of doing that, consider your life, and how you’d  50 it to be. See your life with less move anent, less doing, less rushing. See it with more stillness, more consideration, more  51 .
    Then be that vision.
    It’s pretty simple: all you have to do is sit still for a little bit each day.   52 you’re gotten used to that, try doing less each day. Breathe when you feel yourself moving too  53 . slow down. Be present. Find happiness now, in this moment, instead of   54 for it.

    A company advertised in the newspaper for a sales position. Details of the requirements, salary and benefits were given. It was also clearly stated that applicants needed to take an aptitude test (能力倾向测试) and an interview. However, looking at the whole advertisement, one could not find any contact information of the company.
    Most interested applicants thought that it was the company’s HR department’s carelessness or a printing error. They therefore waited patiently for the newspaper to publish an amendment(订正). But instead of waiting for the newspaper to publish the company details, another three applicants took the initiative(主动性) to find out the company’s contact information themselves.
    Tim did a search on the Internet. By typing the company’s name, he easily obtained all the information including its contact number. Lisa called up the local telephone number search service and found out the company’s office number. She called up the office and got the required contact information. Donna put in a greater effort in her search. She remembered seeing a poster by the same company in the city so she drove all the way down and made a few rounds to search for it. She finally found it together with the company’s contact information.
    Three days after that advertisement was published in the newspaper, most interested applicants were still waiting eagerly for an amendment. On the other hand, the application letters and resumes of Tim, Lisa and Donna had already reached the hands of the company’s HR manager. They were then called up for an interview. During the interview, all went well and immediately they were hired. The three of them were a little surprised at how fast things went on. They were expecting for an aptitude test as stated in the advertisement. The HR director answered them, smiling, “Our test is hidden in the advertisement itself. To be a good salesperson in this age, he or she has to be broad-minded and very importantly, does not follow rigid (死板的) steps or rules. You are all clever. In a short time, you’ve managed to find ways of contacting us. It shows clearly that you have passed the test with flying colors!”
    The fools sit around waiting for their chances whereas the wise actively take actions with great initiative.
    小题1:According to the passage the company wanted to test the applicants’ ______.
    A．sales skillsB．carefulnessC．attitudeD．initiative
    小题2: Whose search skill is the easiest of all?
    A．Tim’s.B．Lisa’s.C．Donna’s.D．None.
    小题3:What can we infer from the passage?
    A．The HR manager of the company made a mistake.
    B．The company meant to omit (遗漏) its contact information.
    C．The HR manager of the company was unfit for his / her job.
    D．A printing error occurred in the advertisement in the newspaper.
    小题4:Which of the statements is NOT correct according to the passage?
    A．Many applicants thought the company made a mistake.
    B．The advertisement was very special to many applicants.

    “Everybody in this city wants a car, and I’m no exception. A car brings with it the freedom to travel”, said a friend of mine while reading a car magazine. I might not agree with him, but no doubt he was speaking for a rapidly growing number of middle-class Chinese. While it is true that all the waiting, walking, being part of a crowd, and sweating, are somewhat unpleasant, there are many problems which can arise when our lives rely too much on this invention.
    First of all, in terms of polluting the environment, driving a car is the worst act an average person can commit. Beijing now finds itself at the top of the list of the most polluted capital cities in the world with Mexico City in the second place. Research also shows that by 2010 around 90% of total pollutants in Shanghai have come from cars. These pollutions are extremely dangerous to our health. They can damage the lungs, cause cancer, and damage the brain.
    Apart from environmental problems, relying too much on cars also creates social problems such as traffic jams, road accidents, and noise pollution. The jeeps that proudly drive through the Hutongs in Beijing as if they are in a race often annoy me, and to make it worse, these drivers seldom respect cyclists.
    Of course, we cannot forget the convenience that cars bring us when we need to travel far, but I often find it faster to cycle from one place to another within the city of Beijing, especially with the growing traffic jams.
    Since people travel further and more frequently than before, cars will certainly be important in the future. At the same time, however, let us work hard to make sure that this invention brings us a more convenient lifestyle rather than trouble and disease. Let us make good use of cars.
    小题1:What is this passage mainly about?
    A．Environmental problems.
    B．Traffic jams in Beijing.
    C．Problems brought about by cars.
    D．Benefits of using cars.
    小题2: The underlined word commit in Paragraph 2 has the close meaning as ____ .
    A．do something right or legal
    B．do something wrong or illegal
    C．do something good and meaningful
    D．do something bad and meaningless
    小题3:What do we know about the author?
    A．The author doesn’t want a car.
    B．The author agrees that a car offers freedom to travel.
    C．The author suggests that we should rely on bicycles.
    D．The author thinks that the invention of cars leads to many problems.
    小题4:In Paragraph 3, what does the author mean by saying “The jeeps… often annoy me”?
    A．The author is troubled by the way jeeps are driven in the Hutongs of Beijing.
    B．The author thinks that Hutongs are too narrow for jeeps to drive through.
    C．The author thinks that the jeeps are too noisy.
    D．The author is worried that more accidents are caused by jeeps than any other cars.
    小题5:What is the author’s idea in Paragraphs 4 and 5 ?
    A．Cars are only convenient for people traveling far.
    B．We should all give up cars and ride bicycles.
    C．Cars have brought us more convenience than troubles.
    D．We should choose between the car and the bicycle according to the situation.
