　　F．Your major does not matter as much in your first year of college

　　Five things nobody told me about college

　　As I type this, I am in my university dorm room. A year ago, when I was awaiting to hear the results of my college applications, I often went to websites for some type of

　　insider look on what college would be like. However, there's only so much that prep books, websites, and older friends can teach. Here are the top 5 things nobody

　　told me about college：

　　61.________

　　Nobody entering a university knows

　　exactly what they want to study. If they tell you otherwise, they're lying and will probably change what they want to pursue

　　within the first quarter of attendance. During my first quarter at University of California, Riverside (UCR)，I

　　thought that I wanted to study Political Science with its focus on International Affairs, so that's what I

　　applied for. However, once I worked with statewide and local government, I realized that a better fit for me would be Public Policy, and now I am in the process of changing my area.

　　62．________

　　In college, there are so many good chances for you to meet your expectations. However, there is a very important difference between wanting to do something and applying for something. In order for you to take full advantage

　　of the conferences, research, internships(实习), and fellowships that your university offers, apply! Step into your academic advisor's office, introduce yourself, and begin making the valuable connections that are necessary to help during the rest of your college career. Great things happen when you step out of your comfort zone, and you would be surprised on how many chances exist if you just ask.

　　63．________

　　College is where you meet your bridesmaids,

　　groomsmen, neighbours, and potential bosses. The relationships you develop now will probably be linked to the ones you value later, so be wise about the people who you invest yourself in. You are only one person, and you do not have time to waste on people who would rather cause drama or mess up with your purpose. Surround yourself with uplifting individuals who challenge you to be better while loving you for who you are, and be patient

　　to the people who are the complete opposite of that description.

　　64．________

　　As a first­year, I was afraid to make any noise towards campus issues that I noticed. It was not until I became involved in student government that I gained the confidence to handle projects that I created with the help of ASUCR Office of the President. During my first quarter, I spoke directly to the Chancellor(校长), asking him for support towards my initiatives(提议), met with the Vice Chancellors, and cooperated with my teaching assistants to begin my undergraduate research project. Nothing good will happen when you are silent.

　　65．________

　　At my high school，there were about only four active clubs and organizations that students could be a part of.Imagine my surprise when I stepped foot onto UCR's campus，where over 400 organizations exist，ranging from political organizations to karate club.You are not paying all of your tuition(学费) to merely go to class，study，pass tests and graduate.Make something worthy out of your experience.Create stories that you will want to tell your grandchildren one day.It all begins here，by signing up to join an organization.

　　201年高考试题

　　下面文章中有5个段落需要添加首句(第61-65题)。请从以下选项(A, B, C,D, E和F)中选出适合各段落的首句，并在答题纸上将相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。

　　A. Come in with something to say.

　　B. Prepare general comments.

　　C. Bring materials with you.

　　D. Don’t make them wait.

　　E. Have no fear.

　　F. Go it alone.

　　One of the best things you can do any time in the semester is go see the professor. So hoof on over to an office hour and have some one-on-one face time with someone who’ll help you master the material and improve your grade, to boot. But how should you have this conversation with the professor? Here are five insider tips about how to make that office hour really count:

　　61.

　　No need to get all bent out of shape about going to see the professor. The professor would actually like to see you and answer your questions. Believe it or not, he or she is on your side and is eager to see you do well. And besides, he or she has seen many students stupider than you, so nothing you’re gong to ask will set the record for stupidity.

　　62.

　　Even though you might feel more comfortable going with a friend or partner, the office hour will go better if it’s just you and the professor. You’ll get in more questions, the discussion will be tailored to what you need most help on, and two-party communication is almost always more productive than committee work. You friend can wait outside for the discussion.

　　63.

　　If you can’t make the official office hours, most professors are willing to make individual, appointments to help you out. If you’re lucky enough to land such an accommodation, though, be sure you’re 100 percent on time. There’s nothing that ticks off a professor more than making him-or herself available for a custom office hour only to find that you don’t care enough to come on time. And besides, the professor might leave after ten minutes, which would make your trip a total loss.

　　64.

　　If you’re meeting with the professor to go over a paper or test, or to ask questions about a particular lecture or reading, make sure you bring that paper or test, or your lecture notes or a copy of the article. The professor doesn’t remember the comments he or she wrote on your individual piece of work—though he or she will be able to recall them after just a brief glance at your work. And if you have your lecture notes or the article in hand, you and the professor will be able to examine specific points that are confusing to you, rather than just talking in a general way about the contents.

　　65.

　　Office hours almost always go better if you bring a few specific questions to the meeting. It’s almost never good to start a meeting with general comments such as: “I didn’t understand what you said about main topic of the course”or “I couldn’t understand any of your lectures last week.” Much better is to come in with two or three conversation-starters, about a specific concept, point, or problem you didn’t understand. Keep in mind that in a fifteen-minute office hour (which is how long these things usually last), two or three questions are usually the most you’ll have time to discuss.

　　P32017·陕西卷

　　根据短文内容，从下框的A～F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。

　　B. Negative effects of tourism

　　C. Growing tourism in the world

　　D. Developing tourism with caution

　　E. Benefits to the locals from tourism

　　F. Tourism problems and possible solutions

　　61.

　　On the Mediterranean island of Majorca in Spain, the locals are angry. Too late. In the last quarter of the 20th century, they obtained profit from foreign visitors wanting to buy up property on their beautiful island. Suddenly, it occurred to Majorcans that the island no longer belonged to them. Its 630，000(居民) are increasingly convinced that the 14 million visitors a year are far too much of a good thing. Water is in short supply, pollution is worsening, and there is no affordable housing left for them to buy.

　　Tourism is the world's largest and fastest growing industry. In 1950, 25 million people travelled abroad; last year it was 750 million. The World Tourism Organization predicts that 1.6 billion people, by 2020, will travel each year, spending over two trillion(万亿) US dollars.

　　The host country may not see many benefits. In Thailand, 60% of the $4 billion annual tourism income leaves the country. Tourists arranged by travel companies tend to stay at big foreign­owned hotels, buying few local products. Mass tourism(团队旅游) usually leaves little money inside the country and most of the money goes to the airlines, the tour operators，and the foreign hotel owners, who are the final winners of tourism.

　　These days the industry's most urgent question may be how to control the flow of tourists. A typical example of this is Italy, where great cultural centres like Florence and Venice can't handle all the tourists they get every summer. In Florence, it's half­million inhabitants have to live with the pollution, traffic jam, and crime caused by 11 million visitors a year. Now there's talk about how to solve these problems, like raising hotel taxes, or even charging admission to some public squares. The idea is to discourage at least some visitors, as well as to pay for cleaning up the mess.

　　65.

　　For many poorer countries, tourism may still offer the best hope for development. The Vietnamese are doing their best to open up their country. Libya has paid $ 1 million for a study. They all want tourists. Yet if something isn't done, tourism seems certain to become the victim of its own success. Its effect on the environment is a major concern. For this reason, tourist organizations need to have second thoughts about what exactly they are trying to sell.

　　2017·浙江卷

　　A．Be a good listener.

　　B．Care about the details.

　　C．Strike up a conversation.

　　D．Make time for friendships.

　　E．Reach out to the newcomers.

　　F．Avoid causing inconveniences.

　　Develop better relationships with neighbours

　　Good neighbours are a lot like electricity or running water：we don't know how much we depend on them until we don't have them.They make our lives more pleasant and give us a sense of who we are，both as an individual and as a member of the community.Here's how to develop your relationships with these very important people in your life.

　　61．________ Often neighbours don't even know each other's names.But it's okay to be the one to break the ice，even if you've lived next door for years.Most neighbours enjoy making small talk with the folks on the other side of the fence.So as you see them at work in their yards，smile，wave，and say hello.Ask how their kids are (whether they're babies or in college)，whether they could use an extra cucumber from your garden，or what they think of the prices at the local supermarket.

　　________ These days，the old Welcome Wagon is a thing of the past.But your new neighbours may be feeling lonely and unsure，especially if they're far from home，and might appreciate a friendly face bearing fresh­baked chocolate cakes.If they have kids，tell them where the children in the neighbourhood live.Recommend the best places to eat and shop.Invite them over for coffee or tea when they get settled，give them your number，and point to your house as you say goodbye.

　　________ Return anything that you borrow from a neighbour，such as tools，in good repair and as soon as you're finished with them.Replace anything that belongs to your neighbour that you，your children，or your pets break or soil.Make sure that your car is not blocking their doorway.Such random acts of consideration will have your neighbours talking—and the talk will be good.

　　64．________ If you value a friendly relationship with your neighbours，spend time with them.What better way to meet your neighbours than to invite them to an informal barbecue，pool party，or holiday open house？Better yet，you might even consider throwing a get­together in their honour.Deliver the invitations in person to everyone who lives on your street and chat with each for five minutes before moving on to the next house.This way，you will get an idea of what your neighbours are like so that you can plan for appropriate food and music.

　　________ In a good relationship，it's really the little things that count.Help to bring in the mail for the elderly neighbour when there is a heavy rain.When your neighbour forgets to take in his rubbish cans，roll them back into his yard.If you're truly concerned，you'll know when your neighbour needs some cheering up—a bunch of flowers or a helping hand when it's needed.All it takes to develop your relationship with neighbours is the respect for their feelings.

　　A. Time can run out.

　　B. Tomorrow won’t be better.

　　C. Ideas need time to develop.

　　D. Your professor will be impatient.

　　E. You blow off your chances for help.

　　F. You are probably overestimating （高估）the pain.

　　Never Put off Tomorrow What You Can Do Today

　　Want to put off studying for the physics test? Or writing that thirty-five-page research paper on future uses of biotechnology? Sure you do? And who wouldn’t? But it’s still a silly idea to put off doing something until a future time. Here is why ....

　　61. __________. The task will be still the same. It won’t be any more fun and you still won’t want to do it. As the deadline gets closer and closer, the task seems to become larger and larger if you haven’t started the work. And the stress increases. Now not only do you have to write that paper, you have to do it under great pressure.

　　62. _________ . Before you start, it seems that the task is unlikely to be accomplished. But you know what? You’re probably miscalculating. Get started -------- maybe on a small piece ------ And you will discover that you have more resources and know more about the subject than you thought. Result? You won’t experience nearly as much suffering as you expected to. Things are guaranteed ------ 100 percent ------- to get better.

　　63. _____________ . If you leave your work before the night before it’s due, you give up the possibility of getting input from your professor. Professors regularly give advice ----- or at least a few useful tips ---- during office hours. Unfortunately though, they don’t usually hold office hours at midnight, so you will be out of luck when you discover the night before the midterm that you have no idea how to do the questions that will count for two-thirds of your grade.

　　64. ________ . Ever wonder why the professor assigns the papers two weeks before it’s due? It’s because he or she expects you to be thinking about the issue, or doing the research, for two weeks. No, not every waking moment, but at least some of the time. After all, the professor could just as easily have given the assignment one week before it was due if he or she expected less thinking. When you throw together a paper or a report at the last minute, your ideas are half-baked. And your professor will know it.

　　65. ________ . If you put things off at the last minute, you might find that you haven’t budgeted enough minutes to finish the necessary tasks. It’s the easiest thing in the world to miscalculate how long it will take to do all the work especially when new issues arise ------ like illness, family problems, computer breakdowns, trouble at work, and all the other things ------- as you are thinking through your paper argument or preparing yourself for the coming test. If you keep delaying, you don’t allow yourself time for those various life events that have an adverse(不利的) effect on your ability to complete your assignment.

　　【2017陕西卷】根据短文内容，从下框的A---F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。 选项中有一项为多余选项。

　　Adults keep pets with their children.

　　Pet-keeping has a very long history.

　　Pet-keeping may do harm to animals.

　　People keeps pets for their aesthetic need.

　　Caged pets become increasingly popular.

　　Pet-keeping is helpful for children’s growth.

　　61.

　　Pet-keeping is a time-honored tradition. One of the reasons for people to raise dogs or cows was usefulness. While people in the past hunted animals and kept them in their backyards, the civilsed man today is less cruel towards them and is less exploitative(利用的).

　　62.

　　We keep animals as pets because they are attractive. We all have the urge to possess something that has aesthetic（审美的）value, and this is why we treasure paintings or fine furniture. Keeping pets is one form of this urge. A Siamese cat in the house can be a decorative object. Pets are playful animals and they amuse us. A little rabbit amuses us by its playful and lively runs.

　　63.

　　Many parents find it helpful to have pets in the house for their children. Having pets is an excellent way of developing in children the love of animals and responsibility. Children get the opportunity to take on full responsibility for another creature’s life. It will be an educational experience for a child to watch the natural life cycle of an animal. There are psychological benefits for children. Pets are welcome friends for children who are lonely. Pets are excellent companions. Keeping pets means giving love and being loved. We find comfort in giving care and receiving care in return. We get pleasure from their appearance and their behavior.

　　64.

　　As more people move into apartments, there are limitations on keeping of animals like dogs and monkeys. Therefore, caged animals have increased in popularity. Birds fall into this group. We keep them for their beautiful songs and feathers. Fish-keeping is a widespread hobby and the keeper can observe their behavior in the glass tank and study its entire life cycle. The cat is a fine house pet and it fits neatly into human habitation(居住地) without requiring its own cage. They are wonderful hunters, if there are rats around.

　　65.

　　Pets satisfy man’s desire to care for a bit of nature. The pet owner has the responsibility for supplying those needs that nature provides. Pets are amusing and entertaining, but we are in a way doing animals harm by making them live in a human environment. Are we not enslaving(奴役)them?

　　2017年高考试题

　　根据短文内容，从下框的A～F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余项。

　　A. Be well-organised.

　　B. Close with a Q & A.

　　C. Don’t be contradictory.

　　D. Bring it to a specific end

　　E. Speak slowly and pause.

　　F. Drop unnecessary words

　　Speaking to a group can be difficult, but listening to a bad speech is truly a tiresome task—especially when the speaker is confusing. Don’t want to confuse your audience? Follow these suggestions:

　　61.

　　_______

　　When it comes to understanding new information, the human brain needs a little time. First, we hear the words; then, we compare the new information to what we already know. If the two are different, we need to pause and think. But a breathless speaker never stops to let us think about what he or she is saying and risks confusing us. Slow it

　　62.

　　_____

　　Sometimes we all start a sentence one way and then switch directions, which is very difficult to follow. When you the audience confuse your listeners with opposing information, you leave the audience wondering what part of the information is right and what part they should remember. Instead of relying and keeping correcting yourself, work to get the facts clear and straight.

　　63.

　　_______

　　Jumping from point to point as it comes to your mind puts the onus (责任）on your listeners to make up for your lack of organisation. And it’s confusing for them to listen, reorganise, and figure out what you’re saying all at once. But going smoothly from one point to the next helps them understand information more easily. You can arrange things from beginning to end, small to large, top to bottom or by some other order. Just be sure to organise.

　　64.

　　______

　　Repeated use of um, ah, like, you know and some other useless noises can drive an audience crazy. It makes the speaker sound uncertain and unprepared, and it can leave listeners so annoyed that they can’t pay attention. Recently I attended a speech that was marked by so many ums that audience members were rolling their eyes. Was anybody grasping the intended message? Um, probably not.

　　65.

　　______

　　Many speakers finish up their speeches with question-and-answer (Q & A) sessions, but some let the Q & A go on without a clear end. The audience is often left confused about whether the meeting is over and when they can get up and leave. Do your listeners a favour by setting a time limit on questions, and close your speech with a specific signal—even if it’s something simple like, “If you have any more questions, you know where to reach me.”

　　Or even more to the point, conclude your speech with “Thanks for your time. ”

　　【2017·浙江卷】下面文章中有5处（第61--65题）需要添加小标题，请从以下选项中选出符合各段意思的小标题，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑,选项中一项为多余选项.

　　A. Slow Down Your Life

　　B. Escape Now and Then

　　C. Separate Your Actions

　　D. Allow Yourself to Be Weak

　　E. Relieve Pressure by Firmly Saying " No"

　　F. Stop Expecting Everything to Be Perfect

　　How to Simplify Your Life

　　Less is more. This is why we say: reduce things by half instead of doubling them, get rid of junk instead of piling it up, relax instead of stressing, slow down instead of speeding up. Apply these principles in your everyday life in a conscious way. You will then find yourself well along on your journey to simplification. 61.

　　When you concentrate on one task, you find you have energy that you didn't even know you had. Just imagine: you are at a fair and you have to carry two heavy pigs over 100 yards. If you keep grabbing one and then the other, it will take forever, because one of them will keep slipping out from under your arm and running off. But if you tie one pig in a place, pick up the other, gather all your strength and make a dash for the finish line, pause for a moment, run back and get the other one, and with great determination, carry the second pig to the finish line, then you can be sure of success. 62.

　　______

　　The pressure at work is on the increase in all occupations. In the modem nuclear family, the expectations that formerly would have been shared among all the relatives are now concentrated on the individual partner.

　　If you have the feeling that 24 hours per day are not enough for all the things you need to do, then it’s not because the day has too few hours, but because you have too many activities. A simple fact that overloaded people often tend to forget. The solution is equally simple; refuse to accept so many work assignments in your private life or your working life.

　　63.

　　“I can handle stress” is regarded as a positive statement in the world of work. People who can handle stress are given more and more to cope with — until one day they break.

　　Pay careful attention to the signs that tell you that you are under more stress than you can cope with. These signals came from various areas of life. You become ill, or your work efficiency decreases.

　　If you have any of these symptoms, change your life goals and decrease your tolerance of stress. Say quite openly, "I can't manage that. "

　　64.

　　"If only I were slimmer, more beautiful, richer, more clever, then I would be happier. " This is a dream that makes a lot of people ill, depressed, and unhappy. Life has its flaws, defects, comets, and edges. Only those who accept this reality can lead a really full life.

　　Of course there are activities in which errors are dangerous; driving a car, crossing the road. But life doesn't consist entirely of these things. In among them there is a lot of room for small and large mistakes.

　　65.

　　Successful people all have their own places where they can withdraw in order to work. Find out which places improve your creativity. For me it's the train. When I know that I'm going to be traveling for four hours without phone calls and people knocking on my door, I find my mind is free and I can read or write complex articles. There can be problems working on the train, of course: if the person sitting opposite you keeps talking away, or if train trips make you tired (some people fall asleep after a few miles.

　　【两年模拟】201、201名校模拟题及其答案解析

　　201名校模拟题

　　下面文章中有5个段落需要添加小标题（第61～65题）。请从以下选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中选出适合各段落的小标题，并在答题纸上将相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。

　　A. Openness to the world

　　B. The grace of trusting in strangers

　　C. Star in your own movie D. Often change your course

　　E. Learn how to make decisions

　　F. A new best friend (or love)

　　Nearly everyone likes traveling. Sometimes we will travel with our friends or families, but sometimes we will travel alone. Different ways for traveling will give you different feelings. Here are five benefits you can gain by traveling alone.

　　61. ______

　　For me, traveling alone was one crash course(速成班) in making decisions–-just keep on rolling the dice(骰子) and see what comes up. Stop the research. Stop the analysis paralysis. Just keep choosing and living. In travel, everything is as it is, and there’s always another day to change course and choose again. A lot more happens in life when you stop worrying about what to do and just go. 62. ______ 　

　　The sense of risk and reward is what draws me to traveling alone. Traveling with a friend can be an adventure too, but the adventure quotient(指数) is usually higher when you are alone. You’re more vulnerable(脆弱) in the sense that you have to seek out company and help. Hey, just because I’m traveling alone doesn’t mean I can’t ask a hunky Carioca volleyball player to put sunscreen on the hard-to-reach places. That’s the advantage of traveling alone, isn’t it? Openness to adventure. 63. ______ Traveling alone also teaches you to trust your fellow men and women. They are the ones who help you out when you are in need. I will never forget the man who stopped a long-distance bus for me in Colombia so he could go buy me Coke and toilet paper (I confessed to him that I had “digestive” issues right before we got on the bus). Then he invited me to his family’s home for lunch, and I still get emails from the family saying they will never forget me. 64. ______　

　　When you travel alone, the trip is completely yours. You are the star of your own movie. All the mistakes are yours to make, the accidental discoveries to enjoy, and the insights to savor. The recollection of the trip is entirely personal and private. 65. ______

　　In a whole year of travel, I made a new best friend who I know will be a friend for life. We will be at each other’s weddings if we get married, we coach each other through our post-(or newly)-travel lives, and we hope to meet up for other adventures in Africa, Asia, and to dance tango in Buenos Aires. Our friendship is pure gold and we have both helped each other grow in countless ways. That openness to a new friend might not have been there if I had already been traveling with someone else. And who knows? You might meet the love of your life. 

　　【浙江省温州市十校联合体2016届高三下学期期初联考】下面文章中有5处（第81–85题）需要添加小标题。请从以下选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中选出符合各段意思的小标题，并在答题纸上将相应的位置上。选项中有一项是多余选项。

　　A. Use business recordings

　　B. Speak slowly and clearly

　　C. Learn telephone manners

　　D. Practice often with a friend

　　E. Always be considerate of your friends

　　F. Make sure you understand the other speaker

　　Telephone tips

　　If the phone rings and someone speaks in English, don’t be afraid to answer it! The fear of talking on the phone in a second language will disappear if you practice often. Here are a few tips for helping you improve your ability to answer a call in English.

　　61._______________

　　Listening to someone speaking in a second language over the telephone can be very challenging because you cannot see the person you are trying to hear. However, it may be even more difficult for the person you are talking with to understand you. You may not realize that your pronunciation isn’t clear because your teacher and fellow students know and understand you. Pay special attention to your weak areas of your pronunciation when you are on the phone.

　　62._______________

　　Don’t pretend to understand everything you hear over the telephone. Even native speakers ask each other to repeat and confirm information from time to time. This is especially important if you are taking a message for someone else. Learn the appropriate expressions that English speakers use when they don’t hear something properly. Don’t be afraid to remind the person to slow down more than once. Keep your telephone in an area that is away from other noise distractions such as a radio or television.

　　63._______________.

　　Ask another student to practice talking on the phone with you. You might choose one night a week and take turns phoning each other at a certain time. Try to talk for at least fifteen minutes. You can talk socially, or role play different scenarios in a business environment. The most important thing about practicing telephone English is that you are not able to see each other’s mouths.

　　64. _______________.

　　There are many ways to get free telephone English practice. After business hours, you can call and listen to recorded messages. Write down what you hear the first time, and then call back and check if your notes are accurate. Make sure you have a pen handy so that you can repeat the information and check your comprehension.

　　65._______________.

　　The way that you speak to your best friend on the phone is very different from the way you should speak to someone in a business setting. Many speakers make the mistake of being too direct on the telephone. It is possible that the person on the other line will think that you are being rude on purpose if you don’t use formal language in certain situations. Sometimes just one word such as could or may is necessary in order to sound polite. Take the time to learn how to answer the phone and say goodbye in a polite manner, as well as all the various ways one can start and end a conversation casually.

　　Listening to someone on the telephone is like listening to a taped recording in class. The only difference is that you have to talk back! Follow the tips above and remember that practice makes perfect!

　　The benefits of visiting museums

　　Educational functions

　　Places for collections of objects

　　The history of museums

　　Precious chance to see famous masterpieces

　　Ways to improve their collections

　　61___________ Museums are places where collections of objects are preserved and put on show. The objects may be anything found in nature made by man. There are museums devoted to art, science, history, industry and technology.

　　62____________ But museums are no longer just storehouse for collections. Today nearly all museums, large or small, carry on educational programs. Museums offer guided tours, lectures, films, music recitals, art lessons, and other attractions. They organize field trips and clubs. They publish guides to help visitors to gain a better understanding of the collections.

　　63_____________ All museums share a common aim —— to attract visitors and help them to understand and enjoy the collections. Museums are always on the watch for new additions to their collections. Works of art are bought from art dealers and private collectors. Museums also accept gifts, but the large museums no longer accept everything that is offered to them. They accept only objects of collections that meet their high standards.

　　64_____________ Museums often arrange loan exhibitions of important works from private owners, art dealers and other museums. In this way a famous masterpiece may be viewed by people who otherwise might never have the chance to see it. For example, in 1963 the Metropolitan Museums of Art in New York city exhibited one of the world’s most famous ladies —— Mona Lisa, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci. The government of France had lent the painting to the United States. Attendance at the Metropolitan reached an all-time high during the month Mona Lisa was shown there.

　　65_______________ What is to be gained from visiting museums? Museum exhibits can teach us about the world in which we live —— the materials it is made of, the trees and plants that cover it, and the animals that have lived on it since its beginning. We can learn about the activities of man —— his history and development as well as his accomplishments in arts and crafts. Most people see a great work of art for the first time in a museum. We cannot all be explorers or collectors in other lands. But in a museum we can see for ourselves the objects that have been gathered from every part of the world.

　　A. Enjoy meeting new people.

　　B. Live in the moment.

　　C. Expect the unexpected.

　　D. Appreciate the life you have.

　　E. Relax and Have Fun.

　　F. Respect other cultures.

　　Traveling has many benefits. It’s no wonder that so many people love to travel and some even consider traveling as part of their routine lifestyle. Perhaps the reasons for people from all walks of life, both old and young, enjoying traveling are as follows:

　　61. __________ You never know what is going to happen when you are traveling. When you are an inexperienced traveler, you are immediately thrown into a situation where you do not always know what to do. It’s easy to become anxious when you don’t know what is coming up next, but just be patient and let things unfold. Flights will be delayed, or you might not know where your next meal is coming from. Be prepared financially for unexpected things, because you will probably spend more money than you planned on.

　　62. __________ Experienced travelers learn very quickly to adapt to new situations and

　　environments. It may be easy to forget that you are there to relax and enjoy yourself. Relaxation is one of the top benefits of travel. Just enjoy wherever you are, and take things in as they happen. You will learn unexpected things that way. So, you might as well relax wherever you are, and have a good time, especially when things do not go as planned.

　　63. __________ Being in new countries and around strangers all the time can be stressful and make you uncomfortable. But you should have faith that most people you meet will be pleasant to deal with. Your attitude is the most important thing when you meet new people. You may not be able to understand them, but you will gain the most if you just show them respect as human beings. Learn how to enjoy being around new people and don’t be afraid to talk to them.

　　64. __________ Most people are used to doing the same routine in their lives. We get used to our jobs, our friends, and our usual places that we go for fun. Traveling takes you away from all that but it makes you feel more alive. You learn to trust your instincts in a new situation and allow yourself to just appreciate each moment for what it is. You see things you have never seen before. When you learn to be in the moment of right now, you are more aware of everything going on around you.

　　65. __________ When you travel outside of your world, you will notice right away the cultural differences. People might dress differently. They might communicate in a language you don’t know and their lives may appear to be so unfamiliar to you. Here you learn to respect who people are. You see them and acknowledge that they live in a world apart from you. It makes you think about the world on a bigger scale. It makes you more aware of some of the ways that other people struggle in their lives.

Zhang Jingjing and Chen Ying would see them earning their spot on the Chinese Summer Games team.

　　A. Leadership

　　B. Conflict Solving

　　C. Open Communication

　　D. Respect to All Team Members

　　E. Measuring Progress against Goals

　　F. Common Goals with Challenging Target

　　Team Building Means More Than Throwing a Few People Together

　　“Teamworking” is found every where within just about every organization. You can’t get away from “teams” that are supposed to be able to create something that is greater that the sum of its parts. Or so the theory goes.

　　There are five measures that need to be taken before you can get the most out of a team:

　　61._______

　　There must be a clear reason for the team to exist. And all the members should realize the value and significance of what they are going to do. What they are hoping to achieve should be something achievable but at the same time tough and inspiring enough to attract the members and keep their motivation alive. What is more, they should also be well prepared for the possible difficulties they may come across in the process.

　　62.______

　　Team members must be able to express their opinions freely without fear of being criticized, and they must have the feeling that their suggestions will be taken seriously. This is an important point because the team may need to resolve some complex or thorny issues. For example, it may discuss a sensitive topic. Should they keep their conclusion within the team or share it with other employees? This is an issue in itself that all the members should agree on and frank discussion is required.

　　63._______

　　It is easy to think that a junior team member may have less to contribute than more experienced ones. This is not only demoralizing or discouraging, it also makes no sense ---- people that have nothing to contribute. Should not have been selected for the team in the first place. Since they have become members of your team, you need to make sure that each of them has an opportunity to add his or her thoughts to discussions.

　　64.________

　　Disagreements are natural and, in fact, debate and discussion should be encouraged. A team made up only of “yes men” can make disastrous decisions that few people honestly agreed with in the first place. Consequently, there should be rules on how lengthy disagreements should be handled. For example, team meetings may not be the most appropriate place for a discussion that involves only two people, so “under-the-table” method may be effective.

　　65______

　　Most high-performing teams are well organized, A good organizer should be able to play to individuals’ strengths and help them overcome their weaknesses. It should be someone who can act as a promoter and a constant reminder of what the team needs to achieve. He must, above all, be skilled in sharing responsibility and setting tasks to others, coaching them to achieve tasks, and providing constructive feedback on how the tasks went.

　　Team building isn’t as simple as just throwing a few people together. It requires much more, but motivating people is most essential. Successful teamworking is not marked by how much progress the team makes toward its goals, but by how confidently each of its members completes his or her assigned tasks with a sense of achievement and pride.

　　2015年模拟题

　　【浙江省台州中学2015届高三上学期第三次统练】阅读下列材料，从所给的六个选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。

　　A．Art is by all means relevant to history.

　　B．Art is a good means to know about people’s faith.

　　C．Lack of stone images also reflects the religious belief.

　　D．Artists express their feelings and opinions in their works.

　　E．Art history provides information of different places and people.

　　F．People know more about our culture through learning art history.

　　__________________

　　A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than is possible to learn in general history classes. Most typical history courses concentrate on politics, economics and war. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions, and psychology.

　　___________________

　　In addition, information about the daily activities of our ancestors --- or of people very different from our own ---- can be provided by art. In short, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than what can be found in most history books.

　　___________________

　　In history books, objective information about the political life of a country is presented; that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed. Art, on the other hand, is subjective: it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly “political” artist. In his well-known painting The Third of May 1808, he criticized the Spanish government for its misuse of power over people. Over a hundred years later, symbolic images were used in Pablo Picasso’s Guernica to express the horror of war. Meanwhile, on another continent, the powerful paintings of Diego Rivera, Jose Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros --- as well as the works of Alfredo Ramos Martins --- depicted（描述）these Mexican artists’ deep anger and sadness about social problems.

　　____________________

　　In the same way, art can reflect a culture’s religious beliefs. For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art was almost the only type of art that existed. Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that depicted people and stories from the Bible. Although most people couldn’t read, they could still understand biblical（圣经的）stories in the pictures on church walls.

　　________________

　　By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was (and still is ) its absence of human and animal images. This shows the Islamic belief that statues are unholy. Something else can be more religiously symbolic in history.

　　A．How to deal with listening practice

　　B．Class atmosphere matters a lot in learning

　　C．Monitoring activities is one of the main tasks of teachers

　　D．How to evaluate student performance

　　E．Group work needs organizing properly

　　F．Communication skills play a big role in language learning

　　Both instructors and learners can get benefits from the following learning strategies as long as they are properly made use of in language learning．

　　.

　　The information presented in this section focuses on specific conversation, discussion, or presentation skills．The activities arc generally self-explanatory, with students expressing opinions, making decisions, solving problems, planning presentations, and so on．Engaged in these activities, students have the possibility of communicating with each other in class．This section also includes lists of expressions used to illustrate different language functions, such as agreeing, disagreeing, and asking for clarity in order to help students expand their knowledge of English．

　　.

　　In a speaking or listening course, students' anxieties can affect their learning．For this reason, it is important to establish a friendly, relaxed classroom environment．It may help students think of the classroom as a laboratory where they can experiment and take risks with the language．In such circumstances, students should realize that errors are a natural and expected part of learning a language．In addition, one of the goals of this pan is to encourage students to examine their own opinions and values while at the same time showing respect for the opinions and values of others.

　　________.

　　Many of the activities in this section involve the students' cooperating work in class. Generally, such an activity taken up by four members seem to work the best. Groups of three or five members may also be effective, depending on the activity. The first unit includes guidelines for organizing group work, with students taking on the following roles: leader, reader, summarizer, reporter, and observer (if necessary). Organizing all activities in this way makes the course truly learner-centered since students must take full responsibility for carrying out each activity. As for seating, group members should arrange their seats or chairs in a small circle to encourage interaction.

　　________.

　　Being a teacher, in the course of group activities, you should circulate from group to group, which helps ensure that students are on task and are using English. While you should not participate in pair or group activities, you need to stay involved in what the students are doing. One important reason to circulate during activities is to keep track of the kinds of problems students have, such as grammatical accuracy, fluency, word choice, pronunciation and intonation discussion strategies, etc. However, it is generally not effective to correct students' errors when they are involved in an activity The most practical way to deal with communication problems is to make notes of what you observe as you are circulating. You can then use this information to provide feedback after the activity or to develop future lessons.

　　________.

　　At the beginning of the course, when they need to build up their confidence, students benefit most from encouragement and positive comment. If possible, you'd rather not grade the students just few efforts at speaking in a group or to the class. Many students suffer such anxiety in speaking situations that any criticism at this stage can have the opposite effects. Commenting on students' work does not necessarily mean grading them on the scene. Even if the programs require formal grades, you should try to put off assigning grades until later in the term.

　　A. Exercise

　　B. Relax yourself

　　C. Take Time to Reflect

　　E. Early to Bed, Early to Rise

　　F. Minimize Television Watching

　　Five Simple Ways to Increase Your Intelligence

　　Your brain needs exercise just like a muscle. If you use it often and in the right ways, you will become a more skilled thinker and increase your ability.

　　Here are 5 simple ways anyone can squeeze a bit more productivity out of the old gray matter.

　　81._______– This is a hard sell. People love vegetating in front of the television, myself included more often than I’d like. The problem is watching television doesn’t use your mental capacity or allow it to recharge. It’s like having the energy sapped out of a muscle without the health benefits of exercise.

　　When you feel like relaxing, try reading a book instead. If you’re too tired, listen to some music. When you’re with your friends or family, leave the tube off and have a conversation. All of these things use your mind more than television and allow you to relax.

　　82.________ – I used to think that I’d learn more by not exercising and using the time to read a book instead. But I realized that time spent exercising always leads to greater learning because it improves productivity during the time afterwards. Using your body clears your head and creates a wave of energy. Afterwards, you feel energetic and can concentrate more easily.

　　83.________– Many people like to read popular suspense fiction, but generally these books aren’t mentally stimulating. If you want to improve your thinking and writing ability you should read books that make you focus. Reading a classic novel can change your view of the world and will make you think in more accurate, elegant English. Don’t be afraid to look up a word if you don’t know it, and don’t be afraid of dense passages. Take your time, re-read when necessary and you’ll soon grow accustomed to the author’s style.

　　84.________– Nothing makes it harder to concentrate than sleep deprivation. You’ll be most refreshed if you go to bed early and don’t sleep more than 8 hours. If you stay up late and compensate by sleeping late, you’ll wake up lethargic(无精打采) and have trouble focusing. In my experience the early morning hours are the most tranquil and productive. Waking up early gives you more productive hours and maximizes your mental acuity(敏锐) all day.

　　If you have the opportunity, take 10-20 minute naps when you are hit with a wave of drowsiness. Anything longer will make you lethargic, but a short nap will refresh you.

　　85.________ – Often our lives get so exercited that we become overwhelmed without even realizing it. It becomes difficult to concentrate because nagging thoughts keep interrupting. Spending some time alone in reflection gives you a chance to organize your thoughts and prioritize your responsibilities. Afterwards, you’ll have a better understanding of what’s important and what isn’t. The unimportant stuff won’t bother you anymore and your mind will feel less encumbered.

　　Conclusion – I hope you aren’t disappointed that none of the techniques I’ve proposed are revolutionary. But simple, unexciting answers are often the most valid. The challenge is having the will to adhere to them. If you succeed in following these 5 tips, you’ll be rewarded with increased mental acuity and retention of knowledge.

　　A．Slow Down Your Life

　　B．Escape Now and Then

　　C．Separate Your Actions

　　D．Allow Yourself to Be Weak

　　E．Relieve Pressure by Firmly Saying “No”

　　F．Stop Expecting Everything to Be Perfect

　　How to Simplify Your Life

　　Less is more. This is why we say: reduce things by half instead of doubling them, get rid of junk instead of piling it up, relax instead of stressing, slow down instead of speeding up. Apply these principles in your everyday life in a conscious way. You will then find yourself well along on your journey to simplification.

　　________

　　When you concentrate on one task, you find you have energy that you didn't even know you had. Just imagine: you are at a fair and you have to carry two heavy pigs over 100 yards. If you keep grabbing one and then the other, it will take forever, because one of them will keep slipping out from under your arm and running off. But if you tie one pig in a place, pick up the other, gather all your strength and make a dash for the finish line, pause for a moment, run back and get the other one, and with great determination, carry the second pig to the finish line, then you can be sure of success.

　　________

　　The pressure at work is on the increase in all occupations. In the modern nuclear family, the expectations that formerly would have been shared among all the relatives are now concentrated on the individual partner.

　　If you have the feeling that 24 hours per day are not enough for all the things you need to do, then it's not because the day has too few hours, but because you have too many activities. A simple fact that overloaded people often tend to forget. The solution is equally simple: refuse to accept so many work assignments in your private life or your working life.

　　________

　　“I can handle stress” is regarded as a positive statement in the world of work. People who can handle stress are given more and more to cope with—until one day they break.

　　Pay careful attention to the signs that tell you that you are under more stress than you can cope with. These signals can come from various areas of life. You become ill, or your work efficiency decreases.

　　If you have any of these symptoms, change your life goals and decrease your tolerance of stress. Say quite openly, “I can't manage that.”

　　________

　　“If only I were slimmer, more beautiful, richer, more clever, then I would be happier.” This is a dream that makes a lot of people ill, depressed, and unhappy. Life has its flaws, defects, corners, and edges. Only those who accept this reality can lead a really full life.

　　Of course there are activities in which errors are dangerous：driving a car, crossing the road. But life doesn't consist entirely of these things. In among them there is a lot of room for small and large mistakes.

　　________

　　Successful people all have their own places where they can withdraw in order to work. Find out which places improve your creativity. For me it's the train. When I know that I'm going to be traveling for four hours without phone calls and people knocking on my door, I find my mind is free and I can read or write complex articles. There can be problems working on the train, of course: if the person sitting opposite you keeps talking away, or if train trips make you tired(some people fall asleep after a few miles)．

　　A. Openness to the world

　　B. The grace of trusting in strangers

　　C. Star in your own movie D. Often change your course

　　E. Learn how to make decisions

　　F. A new best friend (or love)

　　Nearly everyone likes traveling. Sometimes we will travel with our friends or families, but sometimes we will travel alone. Different ways for traveling will give you different feelings. Here are five benefits you can gain by traveling alone.

　　61. ______

　　For me, traveling alone was one crash course(速成班) in making decisions–-just keep on rolling the dice(骰子) and see what comes up. Stop the research. Stop the analysis paralysis. Just keep choosing and living. In travel, everything is as it is, and there’s always another day to change course and choose again. A lot more happens in life when you stop worrying about what to do and just go. 62. ______ 　

　　The sense of risk and reward is what draws me to traveling alone. Traveling with a friend can be an adventure too, but the adventure quotient(指数) is usually higher when you are alone. You’re more vulnerable(脆弱) in the sense that you have to seek out company and help. Hey, just because I’m traveling alone doesn’t mean I can’t ask a hunky Carioca volleyball player to put sunscreen on the hard-to-reach places. That’s the advantage of traveling alone, isn’t it? Openness to adventure. 63. ______ Traveling alone also teaches you to trust your fellow men and women. They are the ones who help you out when you are in need. I will never forget the man who stopped a long-distance bus for me in Colombia so he could go buy me Coke and toilet paper (I confessed to him that I had “digestive” issues right before we got on the bus). Then he invited me to his family’s home for lunch, and I still get emails from the family saying they will never forget me. 64. ______　

　　When you travel alone, the trip is completely yours. You are the star of your own movie. All the mistakes are yours to make, the accidental discoveries to enjoy, and the insights to savor. The recollection of the trip is entirely personal and private. 65. ______

　　In a whole year of travel, I made a new best friend who I know will be a friend for life. We will be at each other’s weddings if we get married, we coach each other through our post-(or newly)-travel lives, and we hope to meet up for other adventures in Africa, Asia, and to dance tango in Buenos Aires. Our friendship is pure gold and we have both helped each other grow in countless ways. That openness to a new friend might not have been there if I had already been traveling with someone else. And who knows? You might meet the love of your life.

　　Pet care is the only responsibility of the owner. However, just providing pets with food, water, bedding, and toys is not enough. It is equally important to create a pet-friendly home to make sure they are safe. Here are some useful tips:

　　61 Designate (指定) an area inside the house exclusively (专门地) for your pets. Ideally, it should be near the entrance door so that they can reach there easily. Keep all such items which they need like food, water, pet bedding and some toys for their entertainment in this area. There they can spend their lone time and relax themselves.

　　62 You have to ensure that your home is free from dirt, rubbish, and pet hair, to keep your pet and other family members healthy. For this, regular cleaning of every corner of the house is a must. While selecting cleaning products for your home, make sure you pick up the one that does not cause harm to the pets.

　　63 As your pet is active, it may accidentally fall from the window. Therefore, you have to take care of the safety of your pet the way you take care of a small child or an elderly member of your family. If possible, keep the windows shut.

　　64 You cannot afford to leave household items around the house, as your pet can make a mess in no time. So ask your kids to keep the toys out of the reach of the pets. Smaller items like thread, needles, coins, and medicines should not be kept within their reach. If they swallow (吞咽) up such objects, it can be dangerous for them.

　　65 Pets often get poisoned by regular household cleaners, paints, insecticides(杀虫剂), etc. Keep all such harmful substances in closed cabinets only, so that the pets are not exposed to them even accidentally.

　　Before you bring in a new pet into your home, or you are moving into a new house with your family and pets, it is your responsibility to make it pet-friendly, according to the tips given above. Thus, you can ensure safety and comfort for this very special member of your household.

　　3.下面文章中有5个段落需要添加首句(第61~65题)。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出符合各段落的首句。选项中有一项是多余选项。

　　A. Question relentlessly(持续地).

　　B. Create a challenge.

　　C. Expect things to be fun.

　　D. Add variety to your life.

　　E. Connect to what you already know.

　　F. Absorb other people’s enthusiasm.

　　The more I observe brilliant people, the more I notice that one distinguishing characteristic they have is immense curiosity. How does curiosity contribute to someone’s brilliance? It gives you a fresh perspective. Curious people can see something that many other people can’t. It gives you fresh ideas. Using the term from The Medici Effect, curiosity gives you intersection experience where concepts from different fields collide with one another and produce fresh ideas. Since curious people get more intersection experience, they consequently get more fresh ideas.

　　Now that we’ve seen how important curiosity is, how can we develop it? Here are some tips:

　　Rather than expecting things to be boring, expect them to be fun. This small change in your mindset can make a big difference. Once you do it, it will be much easier for you to find the fun side of practically anything.

　　Often something seems boring because it’s delivered poorly. That’s perhaps one thing that makes great teachers great: they can connect their students to the fun side of what they’re teaching. So one way to develop your curiosity is to watch the talks of those who are enthusiastic about their fields. Don’t just absorb their knowledge; absorb their energy too. 

　　By creating a challenge, you will want to prove to yourself (and perhaps to others) that you can make it. One good way to do that is by creating a project: building something real out of what you learn. Another way is to create a contest with your friends to find out who can do something faster or better.

　　Things will be more exciting if you can connect what you’re learning to what you already know. Why? Because that improves your understanding of the world and allows you to see new possibilities you’ve never realized before.

　　Avoid boredom and find new possibilities by exploring new topics. Read books in new types. Meet people with different professions.

　　The core is simple, actually. All the advice above can be summarized to just one: make things fun.

　　4.下面文章中有5个段落需要添加首句(第61—65题)。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出符合各段落的首句。选项中有一项是多余选项。

　　A. You are more independent.

　　B. You develop your own voice.

　　C. You understand the missing holes.

　　D. You begin to acknowledge other worthy activities.

　　E. You gain a different perspective on who your partner is.

　　F. Your life switches from many fantasies to many realities.

　　Being in a relationship can be a full-time job. Sometimes, it can become so overwhelming and consuming that you lose your own voice and sense of ownership. You want freedom and you think your partner is not making you happy enough. You question is why you are in the relationship at all.

　　Yes, we all need that moment to feel uneasy and track our direction in whatever relationship we’re in. These breaks can be beneficial to becoming the person you want to be. Here are some of the positive things that can come out of those moments of indecision.

　　61

　　You are not so absorbed about them. You see them for their flaws and perfections. Since you can rely on your instincts and find other pleasures, rather than just within the relationship itself, you understand your partner better. This knowledge will prove beneficial in the way you treat them.

　　62

　　Now that you want to hang out with other people, you actually appreciate your partner more and try fun new things with them. You can come up with fun things to do on your own and get your partner involved along the way.

　　63

　　Every relationship has some missing holes that need to be filled. It could be in terms of spirituality, finance, emotions, or mentality. When you are lost, you can understand these missing holes and find ways to fill them. It’s not just about the missing holes in the relationship, but the ones you find in yourself. What are your weaknesses? How can you be more purposeful and happier?

　　64

　　You are not just around to fulfill another person’s desires. What matters is how you feel and your independence. Your emotions and joys belong to you — these are not external things. You can reflect, plan, and execute. Along the way, you will find your own voice and identity.

　　65

　　Being lost can offer you freedom. You identify your core values, desires, and tastes. You are open with yourself and you can try new things. You understand that you do not have to always rely on your partner. Perhaps there is a movie coming out this weekend, you can buy a ticket and go to the cinemas yourself — something that may have been unheard of for you in the past. Being forced to find this independence can make you a stronger person.

　　People think that being lost in a relationship signals doom for that relationship — it doesn’t. It all depends on how you manage this necessary stage and work towards making the most of it.

　　5.下面文章中有5个段落需要添加首句(第61~65题)。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出符合各段落的首句。选项中有一项是多余选项。

　　A. Don’t overdo it.

　　B. Recopy your notes.

　　C. Write down key points.

　　D. Make comparisons.

　　E. Keep notes for each subject separately.

　　F. Don’t be afraid to ask the teacher to repeat something you miss.

　　Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well in all your schoolwork—everything from taking tests to researching a paper. But unfortunately, most schools don’t have classes that teach you how to take notes. So here are some tips.

　　If you have a teacher who writes notes on the board, that’s good You can copy them down. If not, write down the most important points from class. It can take some experimenting to figure out what information is really helpful, so keep trying and don’t give up. Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may mention lots of dates and facts in class but only write the key ones on the board. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may repeat a certain date or piece of information. After a while, you’ll get to know a teacher’s style.

　　62 Don’t go crazy taking notes. You’ll be mad if you try to write down every word that’s said in class. And if you focus too much on getting your notes right, you might miss important points. Some people actually learn better by listening, writing down a few key points, and then going over the material after class when they have more time. 

　　Keep your notes handy when you’re doing your reading assignments. Compare what you wrote with what the readings say — you may even want to add to your notes as you read. Going over your notes with a friend and comparing what the two of you put down can help reinforce(加强) what you’re learning. It also can help you remember information when it’s time for the test. And going over your notes will alert you and your friend to any errors.

　　Depending on how neat your handwriting is, you may want to recopy your notes when you get home. If you’ve taken notes in a hurry, you’re more likely to figure out an unreadable word or sentence on the day of the lesson than you are weeks later when you look back over your notes in preparation for a test.

　　Keep notes for each subject in one place so you can find everything easily when it comes time for a test. That may mean keeping a notebook or section of a notebook for each subject as you take notes in class.

　　6. 下面文章中有个段落需要添加小标题。请从以下选项（A、B、C、 D、E和F）中选出符合意思的标题，并在答题纸上将相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。

　　A. Keep Your Voice Low All the Time

　　B. Put Yourself in the Boss’s Position

　　C. Propose Your Solution

　　D. Don’t Go in When You Are Angry

　　E. Make the Issue Clear

　　F. How to Argue with Your Boss

　　Before you argue with your boss, check with the boss’s secretary to determine his mood. If he ate nails for breakfast, it is not a good idea to ask him for something. Even without the boss’s secretary, there are keys to timing: don’t approach the boss when he’s on deadline; don’t go in right before lunch, when he is apt to be distracted and rushed; don’t go in just before or after he has taken a vacation.

　　62._____________________

　　If you’re mad, that will only make your boss mad. Calm down first. And don’t let a particular concern open the floodgates for all your accumulated frustration. The boss will feel that you think negatively about the company and it is hopeless trying to change your mind. Then, maybe he will dismiss you.

　　63._____________________

　　Terrible disputes can result when neither the employer nor the employee knows what is the problem the other wants to discuss. Sometimes the fight will go away when the issues are made clear. The employee has to get his point across clearly in order to make the boss understand it.

　　64._____________________

　　Your boss has enough on his mind without your adding more. If you can’t put forward an immediate solution, at least suggest how to approach the problem. People who frequently present problems without solutions to their boss may soon find they can’t get past the secretary.

　　65._____________________

　　To deal effectively with a boss, it’s important to consider his goals and pressures. If you can put yourself in the position of being a partner to the boss, then he will be naturally more inclined to work with you to achieve your goals.

　　A. Be Positive

　　B. Get rid of insecurities gradually

　　C. Identify your successes

　　D. Help others

　　E. Recognize your insecurities

　　F.

　　True self-confidence isn't an overnight acquisition. It takes dedication to realize you are a good human being that is worthy of respect and love.

　　___________61_____________

　　This could be anything from regrets to friends at school or negative experience. Whatever is making you feel unworthy, or ashamed, identify it, give it a name, and write it down. You can also tear these written pieces to start feeling positive on those points.

　　___________62______________

　　Each day you should weaken it. There's no quick fix. Get to the root of the problem; focus on it and understand that you need to resolve each issue before you can move on. Check if it is an old past emotion and if it is really still relevant or applicable in your life today. And that does not mean you have to get rid of whatever makes you feel bad (many times, you simply can't). You need to learn to accept yourself, your past, your circumstances as they are, without necessarily thinking of them as “bad”.

　　___________63_____________

　　Everyone is good at something, so discover the things at which you do extremely well, then focus on your talents. Give yourself permission to be proud of them. Give yourself credit for your successes. Inferiority (自卑) is a state of mind in which you've declared yourself a victim. Do not allow yourself to be victimized.

　　___________64_____________

　　Avoid self-pity, or the pity and sympathy of others. Never allow others to make you feel inferior—they can only do so if you let them. If you continue to dislike and look down upon yourself, others are going to do and believe likewise. Instead, speak positively about yourself, about your future, and about your progress. Do not be afraid to show your strengths and qualities to others. By doing so, you strengthen those ideas in your mind and encourage your growth in a positive direction.

　　___________65_____________

　　When you know you’re helpful to the people around you, and are making a positive difference in other people’s lives, you'll know that you are a positive force in the world—which will boost yourself confidence.

　　Now, dear friends, Be confident, and accomplishing your goals will be just around the corner.

　　How to pick a great book to read

　　The world is full of great books, just waiting to be read. How can you pick one you'll really like? Here are some tips:

　　61　

　　If you have a favorite hobby or pastime, look for books about that activity. Are you really into dinosaurs or dogs or a specific celebrity? Are there a few careers you're interested in? You can find books about almost anything you like, and you're more likely to enjoy reading a book if you're already interested in its subject.

　　62

　　Some books are entirely made up and imagined. Those are called fiction books. Novels, short stories, and fables are all examples of fiction. These books can transport you to another world or help you imagine something beyond your own experience. Nonfiction books give you the who, what, when, and why. They tell stories using facts — but that doesn't mean they're boring. Nonfiction books can bring to life everything from the first trip to the moon to what it's like to explore the deepest oceans. Many of them read like novels from start to finish. Try both fiction and nonfiction books to see which you like better.

　　63

　　What was your mother's favorite book when she was your age? Or your dad's? What about a sibling's? Ask them and give it a read. Then you can talk about what they liked about it and share your thoughts. It's a fun way to get to know your family a little better, and to find a book you'll enjoy!

　　64

　　Your local library is a great place to find books that you'll love, and you don't have to search all by yourself. Tell a librarian about your interests — rock stars, sports teams, historical events, whatever you're into — and the names of some books you already like. Your librarian can help you find other books that you're sure to love. Your teacher is another good person to ask.

　　65

　　Why not get some friends together and trade favorite books? It's always fun to see what your friends are reading. Even if they're not exactly bookworms, you can all encourage each other to read and share books and authors you like. You also can look for book swaps in your area. It's a great way to build your personal library for free!

　　A. Find a family favorite.

　　B. Read as many books as possible.

　　C. Launch a book swap.

　　D. Ask an expert.

　　E. Fact or fiction?

　　F. What makes you happy?
