Dont worry about what other people think of you .If youre wasting too much time seeking respect or approval from others，then you wont have time to acchieve all that you desire. Everyone has an opinion, but in reality others opinions of you are based more on their history and observations than anything youre actually doing. So while its good to ask for feedback , rely on your own assessment of you rather than others.2. Believe in yourself .If you do not have confidence in your own value, then nobody else will either. You do not have to be able to see the end zone. Just because you arent able to see where you might go and how you might succeed, that doesnt mean it will not happen. And just because you may have made mistakes and have a string of failures behind you does not mean that you cant achieve your goals in the future.3. Dont burn your bridges .You never know when a former boss, colleague or business partner may come in handy. Try to part on good terms, stay on good terms and never gossip (说三道四) about former connections. Keep connections on all levels. A wide pool of friends and connections of all kinds will provide a wealthy resource of ideas and support as you go forward in life. (The exception would be dishonest, disrespectful or offensive people. Cut them loose!)4. _We have so much to acchieve and it feels as though we have to be in a hurry to get there. But you do not have to do it all at once. In fact, if you do, you will, at best not have time to enjoy it and at worst burn out and damage your health and relationships. Slow down and take one thing at a time. Yes, make plans, but dont be in such a rush.56. According to the writer , if others dont think well of you , _ .A. you should work harder to change their opinionsB. you should not waste time achieving what you wantC. you should not care too much about it and trust yourselfD. you should try to get more feedback from them57. What does the underlined word “ it ” refer to ( Para. 2 ) ? A. The end zone.B. Success.C. Your goals.D. Confidence.58. What does the third paragraph tell us ?A. Wealthy friends can give us inspiration and support .B. We should befriend those people who can help us .C. We should keep our former relationships .D. We should make friends with people of all kinds .59. Which of the following is the most suitable for the blank in Paragraph 4 ?A. Look for the good in life .B. Dont achieve your goals in haste(匆忙) .C. Take things slow whatever you do .D. Make plans for your life .BUntil last spring, Nia Parker and the other kids in her neighborhood went to school on Bus 59. But as fuel prices rose, the school district needed to find a way to cut its transportation costs. So the schools busing company redrew its route map, canceling Nias bus. Now Nia and her neighbors travel the half mile to school via a “walking school bus”a group of kids, supervised (监护) by an adult or two, who make the walk together.Many parents are delighted to see their kids walking to school, partly because many did so themselves. According to a 1979 survey, nearly half of school kids walked or biked to school, compared with only 16 percent in 2011. Modern parents have been unwilling to let kids walk to school for fear of traffic, crime or simple bullying, but with organized adult supervision, those concerns have reduced.Schools and busing companies are finding other ways to save money. In rural areas where busing is a must, some schools have even chosen four-day school weeks. Busing companies instruct drivers to cancel extra stops from routes and to turn off the engine while idling(挂空挡). They are also using computer software to determine the most fuel-efficient routes, which arent always the shortest ones.There could be disadvantages, however, to the busing cutbacks. If every formerly bused student begins walking to school, its an environmental winbut if too many of their parents decide to drive them instead, the overall carbon footprint can grow. Replacing buses with many more parent-driven cars can also increase safety risks. A 2011 report concluded students are 13 times safer on a school bus than in a passenger car, since buses have fewer accidents and withstand (经受住) them better due to their size. And some students complain about the long morning hikes, particularly when the route contains a really big hill.60. According to the passage, how does Nia Parker go to school now? A. By bus. B. By car. C. On foot. D. By bike. 61. In regards to walking to school, modern parents seem much concerned with the _. A. safety of their kids B. kids physical strength C. time spent on the way D. changes in the route62. To save money, some schools choose to _. A. shorten the school week B. take the shortest routes C. stop using school buses D. use fuel-efficient buses63. Busing cutbacks may lead to _. A. fewer complaints about long morning hikes B.morestudentstakingpublictransportation C. an increase in carbon dioxide emissions D. a decrease in the safety of school busesC Its still there, the Vietnamese school where my brother and I used to go. Even with a new coat of paint and the high wire fence, the school I knew ten years ago remains the same.Every day at 5 p.m., instead of flying kites with our friends, my brother and I had to go to Vietnamese school. No amount of kicking, screaming, or arguing could stop my mother, who was determined to have us learn the language of our culture. She held us by the collar and walked with us the seven long, hilly blocks from our home to school, leaving our tearful faces before the front of the school. We all sat in little chairs in a big empty room, which had a slight smell of old clothes that had been stored for a long time. I hated that smell. There was a stage far to the right, with an American flag on one side and the flag of the Republic of Vietnam on the other side. Although the school mainly taught language - speaking, reading, dictation - the lessons always began with an exercise in politeness. With the entrance of the teacher, the best student would tap a bell and everyone would get up, and say in Vietnamese, How are you, teacher? The language always made me embarrassed. More often than not, I had tried to separate myself from the loud voice that followed me whenever I went to the American supermarket outside our area. The voice belonged to my grandmother, a small old woman who could shout louder than anyone on the street. Her Vietnamese was quick, it was loud, it was not beautiful. In our area, the comings and goings of hundreds of Vietnamese on their daily tasks sounded crazy. I did not want to be thought of as being mad, as talking stupid. When I spoke English, people nodded at me, smiled and encouraged me. Even Vietnamese people would laugh and say that Id do well in life.My brother was even stricter than I about speaking English. He was especially cruel towards my mother, scolding her for her poor English. Bits of Vietnamese were often mixed in her conversation. After two years of struggle, I finally divorced my culture. I was permitted to stop Vietnamese school. I thought of myself as American. At last, I thought I was one of you; I wasnt one of them. Sadly, I am only an American. 64. What can be learned from the passage? A. The authors brother liked learning Vietnamese. B. The authors mother taught him English at home. C. The author didnt like learning Vietnamese when he was young. D. The authors mother put her sons in a language school in Vietnam.65. The author often felt embarrassed because _. A. his Vietnamese was not beautiful enough B. he could not fly kites like other kids at school C. his grandma spoke Vietnamese loudly in public D. his mother always treated him rudely in the market66. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author feels _. A. frightened B. peaceful C. satisfied D. regretful67. Whats the theme of the passage? A. It is important to adapt to a new environment. B.It is important to appreciate your own culture. C. It is important to remember your childhood. D. It is important to learn a foreign language. DIts 10 pm. You may not know where your child is, but the chip(芯片) does. The chip will also know if your child has fallen and needs immediate help. Once doctors arrive, the chip will also be able to tell them which drugs are not suitable for little Johnny or Janie. At the hospital, the chip will tell doctors his or her complete medical history. And of course, when you arrive to pick up your child, settling the hospital bill with your health insurance policy will be a simple matter of waving your own chip-the one embedded（植入） in your
