day and a fresh start to learn, grow, develop your strengths, free yourself from past regrets or hurts, and move forward older and wiser. every day gives you a chance to reinvent (重新审视) yourself. it is never too late to change things that are not working in your life.each day is a new beginning and a piece of blank paper. how would you like to create your day? what would you like to paint on it? if you wake up in a negative mind, you are more likely to paint a dark picture throughout the day, and your picture will not show hope, happiness and joy. if you take each day to think actively, and have a positive intention for how you would like to create your day, how would your life be different? what can daily positive intentions do for you? every day you will give yourself the gift of an “attitude of gratitude (感恩)”. each day is a chance to look at things in a different way. you can experience each day in the beauty of the world and the beauty of you who are in it! you find yourself changing from “i cant” to “i can”. with a focus on positive intentions, you feel you are full of power and more like a “winner” than a “loser”. you pay more attention to the present, and will be more likely to live fully in the present each moment of each day. after all, the past is a great place to visit, but you dont want to live there! so how about starting each day taking a moment to think of a positive intention for the day?21the first paragraph mainly tells us _.a. learning is helpful in reinventing ourselvesb. january 1st is the most important dayc. we should make every day a new start d. we neednt change ourselves at all22if you have daily positive intentions, you will _.a. have a busy life b. get a positive result c. get gifts from others d. be a complete loser23from the passage we can learn that _.a. positive intentions for each day are of great help b. think actively and you will be a winner, not a loserc. the present is not where you should live for everd. past regrets or hurts can make you older and wiserbeverywhere i look outside my home i see people busy on their high-tech devices, while driving, walking, shopping, even sitting in toilets. people have been influenced to become technology addicted.one study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep, cigarettes and alcohol. the main goal of technology companies is to get people to spend more money and time on their products, not to actually improve our quality of life.they have successfully created a cultural disease.consumers willingly give up their freedom, money and time to catch up on the latest information, to keep pace with their peers or to appear modern.i see people trapped in a pathological（病态的）relationship with time-sucking technology, where they serve technology more than technology serves them.i call this technology servitude.i am referring to a loss of personal freedom and independence because of uncontrolled consumption of many kinds of devices that eat up time and money. what is a healthy use of technology devices?that is the vital question.who is really in charge of my life?that is what people need to ask themselves if we are to have any chance of breaking up false beliefs about their use of technology.when we can live happily without using so much technology for a day or a week, then we can regain control and personal freedom, become the master of technology and discover what there is to enjoy in life free of technology.mae west is famous for proclaiming(声明) the wisdom that “too much of a good thing is wonderful.” but its time to discover that it does not work for technology.richard fernandez, an executive coach at google acknowledged that “we can be swept away by our technologies.” to break the grand digital connection, people must consider how life long ago could be fantastic without todays overused technology.24. the underlined word “allure” in paragraph 2 probably means _.a. advantage b. adaption c. attraction d. attempt25. from the passage, technology companies aim to _.a. deal with cultural diseases b. provide the latest information c. improve peoples quality of life d. attract people to buy their products 26. it can be inferred from this passage that people _.a. consider too much technology wonderfulb. may enjoy life better without overused technology c. can regain freedom without high-tech devices d. have realized the harm of high-tech devices27. whats the authors attitude towards the overusing of high-tech devices?a. disapproving. b. sceptical. c. neutral. d. sympathetic.c my family has a tradition of holding garage sales (旧货出售). on a saturday afternoon back in 2002, just when my aunt lorraine was starting to pack up, i discovered my very own treasure a pair of black boots. although they werent anything fashionable, they caught my eye. plus they were only two dollars. she noticed me eyeing them up and said i could have them for fifty cents.even better! i thought to myself as i pulled them on. they were the perfect fit.when i handed over the money little did i know that these boots would accompany me on some of my greatest adventures. each

from the cold weather. i wore them everywhere. the boots even accompanied me as i walked through the night to find live music. i felt right at home among old friends.in 2009, i went to aunt lorraines home to attend my cousin jasons birthday party. while we were talking, jason stared at my boots.he asked, “where did you get those boots?” “i bought them at your familys garage sale,” i responded.jason flew into a rage. “mum! you sold my boots? i bought them in milan and ive worn them through new york, london, berlin and paris,” he shouted.after a silence, however, he laughed and said, “thanks a lot, mum!” we spent the rest of the evening sharing memories of the journeys wed both had wearing the same pair of boots. the boots are no longer fit for wear, but i have held on to

encouraging words, but also laughed as some unsteadily made their way to the end.“a part of this is for them to have more understanding of designing and make it work better,” he said. it is also a
