If there are too many things that have to be done in one day，then you have to give up doing something that is less important on your list.Besides this，you need to spend a specific(特定的)amount of time doing all the activities you have written down and make sure you finish them on time.People often slow down in their work even though they know that time will never wait for them.Make sure you keep to your plan and finish the tasks one by one.Do not try to do too many things at once.Also，you can group similar activities together and do them one by one.For example，you can group all the tasks you need to do in the office together and do them while youre in office.Do all the tasks that have to be done in one place first，and then move to the next place to do the other tasks.“The bad news is that time flies.The good news is that youre the pilot，”said Michael Althsuler.Your future is in your hands，so remember to invest(投资)your time wisely from today on.51Which of the following things should be done first?AThe most difficult things. BThe most important things.CThe things that werent done yesterday. DThe things that take the least time.52Which of the steps below is NOT important for effective time management?ADo all the tasks that need to be done in one place together.BWrite down daily tasks that need to be done.CDo as many tasks as you can at the same time.DUnderstand and know the importance of daily matters.53The author quoted the words by Althsuler to say that _.Ayou can manage your time wisely Byou cant control timeCtime passes quickly Deverything has two sides54With which of the following would the author agree?ANever give up doing the least important things.BSuccessful people can make a day last longer than 24 hours.CWriting down daily tasks is the first step towards success.DEffective time management can help one to succeed.BHappiness can be described as a positive mood and a pleasant state of mind. According to recent surveys, sixty to seventy percent of Americans consider themselves to be moderately happy and one in twenty persons feels very happy. Psychologists have been studying the factors that contribute to happiness. It is not predictable, nor is a person in a clearly ideal situation necessarily happy. The ideal situation may have little to do with his actual feelings.A good education and income are usually considered necessary for happiness. Though both may contribute, they are only chief factors if the person is seriously undereducated or actually suffering from lack of physical needs.The rich are not likely to be happier than the middleincome group or even those with very low incomes. People with college educations are somewhat happier than those who did not graduate from high school, and it is believed that this is mainly because they have more opportunity to control their lives. Yet people with a high income and a college education may be less happy than those with the same income and no college education.Poor health does not rule out happiness except for the seriously disabled or those in pain. Learning to deal with a health problem can contribute to happiness. Those with a good material life are happier in general, but those who have a loving, affectionate relationship are happier than those who rely on material alone. Love has a closer relationship with happiness than any other factor.It should be noted that people quickly get used to what they have, and they are happiest when they feel they are increasing their level no matter where it stands at a given time.Children whose parents were happily married have happier childhoods, but are not necessarily happier adults.The best formula for happiness is to be able to develop the ability to bear failure, to have a personal participation and devotion, and to develop selfconfidence and selfesteem.55It can be inferred from the passage that _.Ahappiness is predictable rather than passively acceptedBa person in an obviously ideal situation must be happyCthe rich are likely to be happier than the middleincome groupDhappiness is not necessarily connected to ones situation in society56People with college education _.Aare not happier than those who have only an education at high schoolBare much happier than those who did not graduate from high schoolChave less opportunity to control their livesDhave more opportunity to control their lives57According to the article, happiness is greatly dependent on _.Aa happy childhood in a happily married familyBgreat wealth obtained by receiving a good educationCa feeling that conditions are becoming for the betterDa college degree and a high income58Which of the following is most likely to contribute to happiness?ABeing exceptionally goodlooking. BHaving a loving, affectionate relationship.CHaving a wellpaid job. DMeeting lots of people.CPets are popular.Theyre good listeners，they encourage us to exercise，and theyre always on our side when we argue with others.They can bring people comfort and pleasure.But it is important to keep in mind that pets can carry diseases that can make you sick.Washing your hands oftenespecially after you touch，feed，or clean up a petis the best way to keep yourself healthy and prevent the spread of disease.Be sure to clean your fingernails carefully every time you wash.You also can protect your health by wearing gloves while cleaning animal cages or cat litter boxes.Avoid washing your pet in the bathtub(浴缸)，but if you do，always disinfect(消毒)the tub immediately afterward.Be sure to bring your pet to the hospital for examinations every two weeks or month and whenever your pet is sick or injured.You can do a few other things to keep yourself and your pet healthy.Only give your pet food that has been planned ahead for them.Its not a good idea to share your food with your pet.Human food (like chocolate)can make animals sick.Never feed your pet raw(生的)meat because it can carry germs(细菌)that cause serious illness.And funny as it can be to see your dog or cat drinking from the toilet，dont let pets do this.Its bad for your pets health！Give them clean，fresh water to drink at all times.Never give milk to cats.The only milk an animal should drink is from its mother.Cows milk is not for pets，especially for cats，as it makes them sick.Finally，some animals arent pets.Dont take in a wild or abandoned(被抛弃的)animal as a pet because it may have diseases that could make you or your family sick.Instead，turn to an animal rescue group that is trained in helping sick or abandoned animals.59The first paragraph mainly tells us that pets can _.Abe great friends Bbring us pleasureChelp us keep healthy Ddo harm to us60To keep healthy，the author may be against _.Awashing your fingernails after touching your petBwearing gloves when cleaning your pets cageCwashing your pet in the bathtubDbringing your pet for examinations regularly61The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 7 refers to _.Athe cow Bthe mother catCcows milk Dmother cats milk62Which is the RIGHT way to feed your pet?ASharing your chocolate with your dog.BLetting your dog drink from the toilet.CFeeding your little cat with raw meat.DGiving your cat cooked fish.DKenyon Scudder once told me a story about his friend，Michael.Michael happened to be on a train sitting next to a young man who seemed worried.Finally the young man told Michael that he was a convict (罪犯) returning home from a distant prison.His behavior had brought shame(羞耻)on his family，and they had neither visited him nor written.He hoped，however，that this was only because they were too poor to travel and too busy to write.When he was set free，he had written to tell them he wanted to go home.To make matters easy for them，however，he had asked them to put up a signal (信号) for him when the train passed their little farm.If the family had forgiven him，they were to put up a white ribbon (丝带) in the big apple tree near the railway.If they didnt want him back，they were to do nothing，and he would stay on the train，and go far away.As the train neared his hometown his suspense became so great that he was afraid to look out of the window.He asked Michael to watch for the big apple tree.They changed seats.In a minute，Michael put his hand on the young convicts shoulder. “There it is，”he said，his eyes filled with sudden tears.“Its all right.The whole tree is white with ribbons.”63For which of the following reasons might the young man be worried?AHe might not be allowed to go home.BHe was afraid his family would not remember him.CHis family hadnt written to him often.DHis family hadnt visited him for a long time.64According to the passage，the white ribbon in the big apple tree means_.Apleasure BforgivenessChappiness Deducation65The word“suspense”underlined in the last paragraph can best be replaced by_.Apain BinterestCworry Dhappiness66Why was Michael asked to watch for the apple tree?AThe young man was afraid that he was refused by his family.BThe young mans seat was far from the window.CThe young man was afraid of seeing the white ribbons in the tree.DThe young man was sure that his family would accept him.EWhen I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mothers Chinese English. Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her. My mother has realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information
