Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed. The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become dis? couraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase. Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.1. Our long-term goals mean a lot _.A) if we cannot reach solid short-term goalsB) if we complete the short-term goalsC) if we have dreams of the futureD) if we put forward some plans2.

Almost every society has certain traditional ideas about marriage. For example, most societies expect men and women to marry. Most cultures also have traditions about the role and duties of a husband and a wife. Traditionally, the husband is expected to earn a living, and the wife is expected to keep house and raise children. Many Americans did not follow traditional marriage patterns. For example, a large number of married couples share responsibilities that have been traditionally handled by either the husband or the wife. An increasing number of married women have paying jobs and help support their families financially. In 1940, about 15 percent of all married women earned money. In the early 1990s, about 60 percent held a full- or part-time job. More and more husbands share responsibilities traditionally handled by women, such as cooking, doing housework, and caring for children. On the average, men and women stay single longer than they once did. In 1950s, men married at an average age of 23, and women married at an average age of 20. By the mid-1990s, the average marriage age was about 26.5 for men and about 24.5 for women. An increasing number of people choose not to marry. If a man and a woman wish to avoid marriage, they may decide to live together with no formal obligations to each other. This arrangement is more common among young adults, but some couples of all ages live together without marrying.1.

In our neighborhood, in the neighboring state, wherever we look, we find criminals and crime. Criminals have (1) a part of our daily lives. Does this mean we let them be the darkness of our society? No, definitely not. Eliminating crime and criminals is our duty, and we cannot ignore it. Getting the rightly accused to a just (2) is very important. Some criminals commit a crime because they have no other option to survive, but some do it for fun. I do not advocate for everybody. A person (3) stole bread from a grocery store, definitely does not deserve the death penalty. However, a serial killer, who kills people for fun or for his personal gain, definitely deserves it. The death penalty should continue (4) eliminate the garbage of our society. Not everybody deserves to die, but some people surely do. I support the death penalty because of several reasons. Firstly, I believe that it serves as a deterrent and helps in (5) crime. Secondly, it is true that it is irreversible, but it is hard to kill a wrongly convicted person due to the several chances given to the convicted to prove his innocence. Thirdly, the death penalty assures safety of the society by eliminating these criminals. Finally, I believe in “a life for a life”.1. A) punishmen B) reducing C) in order to D) who E) become2.
