she also believes in “women s liberation(解放)”. “i dont wish that i were a man,” she says, “and i dont think many women do. but i do wish that people would stop looking down upon us women. at work, for example, we often do the work that men do but get paid less. there are still a lot of jobs that are usually the best ones and open only to men. if youre a man, you have a much better chance of leading

we are so used to our computers, cell phones, and supermarkets; we dont know the word “simple” anymore. in fact, it is not hard to grow a garden in your backyard if you own a home. we all have gotten lazy in the last two generations. all we seem to care about is who or what we can take from. the land that we are building on is starting to run out. the mountains are being torn down to make way for a million dollar home. why not just build a simple home to blend in with (十分协调) the land?before we could even think about returning to the land, we have to give the land back to the earth. stop tearing down the forests for needless million dollar homes. stop cutting into the mountains because you want to escape the truth around you. stop ripping up the parks to make more highways. plant more flowers so the bees can have a chance to survive. plant a tree now and you may save the planet later. pick up trash when you see it on the ground. we need to teach our children how to start conservation (保护) now before their generation has to live underground, or worse they wont have a next generation.today i walked outside and it is supposed to be winter, but it is 80 degrees. the flowers are blooming (开放) too early because we cannot control our habits of greed (贪婪). i cannot understand why we are killing the only place we have to live on. we can spend billions on needless things that pollute this planet, but we cant spend pennies on seeds that would save this planet. what a shame!16. which of the following can be one example of “living the simple life”?a. growing a

day, a letter came to his desk, addressed in shaky handwriting to god. he thought he should open it to see what it was about. so he opened it and read:dear god,i am an 83-year-old woman, living on a

time being busy, but at the end of the day you dont feel like youve really gained anything? 26 the reason is while i spent a lot of time working on urgent (紧急的) things, none of them was important. i try to stay focused on important, rather than simply urgent, tasks each day by using the following methods. 27 often the best way to find out what the most important tasks are is to choose your three most important items for the day. ask yourself, “if i could only do these three things today, would i feel happy and satisfied?”focus on providing value.one of the easiest ways for me to discover whether im working on important or urgent things is asking myself how much value the task will provide for me or others. i know going to the gym and writing articles will have a better long-term effect than checking my e-mail every 30 minutes and playing games. 28 first things first. 29 when i spend my time working on unimportant but urgent items, i end up getting caught up in trying to put out the next fire. also, when i try to work on my important tasks later in the day, theres usually more distractions (分心的事). have a clear vision (构想). this goes along with setting your most important tasks. but here were thinking about our long-term vision. creating a vision is about seeing clearly where youd like to be in the next 5, 10 or 20 years. 30 think about whether or not the work youre doing is moving you closer to your vision.a. ive felt this way quite often.b. try to set an example for others.c. set three most important tasks for the day. d. spend most of our time doing whats most important to us.e. ask yourself, “how much value will this provide for me, or someone else?”f. i find the best way is to start on the most important tasks right away in the morning.g. when we have a clear idea of what we want the future to be, its much easier to focus on important tasks.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分25分）第一节 完形填空（共15小题; 每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从35-49题所给的a、b、c、d四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。half
