They can be as important as what you will do in the future or as simple as what you will eat for breakfast. Any decision could be the turning point of your life.I made an important decision when I was in Junior 3.Before I made that decision I was one of the boys who tried too hard to act as an adult. I didnt know that only kids want to show themselves as adults.I didnt listen to my parents and teachers, and my grades became poor. Then came the high school entrance exam.At the turning point of my life, my mum wanted to have a conversation with me. I wanted to turn it down but when I looked at her eyes, I felt I couldnt refuse. Instead of asking me to study hard, to my surprise, mum just asked what I wanted to do in the future. Without thinking too much, I just said I would like to study hard.Mum smiled and asked again, I asked what do you WANT to do?I never seriously thought about the question. So, I kept silent.Whether you want to go on studying or enter the society, she went on, it is your own decision. Your life ought to be decided by you, not by anyone else, including me. After saying that, she had tears in her eyes.For the first time in my life I was asked to make my own decision. I sat in my chair and thought about myself, my life and what kind of person I wanted to become.It took me what seemed to be ages to make the biggest decision so far in nay life-I wanted to be a man who makes a difference in the world. To achieve that, I needed to study hard.The path to my future became clear to me. I didnt act rebelliously(叛逆地) any more. With passion (激情) in my heart, I studied hard.Now, Im 17 and Im in one of the best schools in my city, in one of the best classes at the school and I am one of the best students in the class.Thanks to that decision, I have become what I am today.（1）When did the writer make the important decision?

But they had to keep the fires burning(燃烧), for they couldnt start it again if there was no lightning. Later, they found out hitting two pieces of stone(石头) together could make a spark(火花). The spark could fire dry leaves(树叶). In this way they could make the fire again if it went out. Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing(摩擦). They made a hole on a big piece of wood(木头) and put a smaller stick(树枝) into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.As years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometimes they used the heat(热) from the sun. They held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire.About two centuries(世纪) ago, people began to make matches(火柴). Matches brought people a quick and easy way to make fires. Today matches are still being used, but people have more new ways to make fires. One of them is to use an electric(电子) fire starter. Of course an electric fire starter is much more expensive than a box of matches.

Youre having lunch alone in the dining hall, but it only feels right when you start playing a show on your phone -as if its a necessary side dish. Were now living in a world that is filled with information. It seems unnatural to do only one thing at a time. Its as if were all suffering from a recent article called multitasking OCD.With news reduced to 140 characters and communication increasingly by emojis, we have developed the ability to focus our attention on several activities and devices at once, Sabry Otmani, founder of Pulpix website, once wrote. We need something exciting to keep us interested and to fight off boredom.But perhaps fighting off boredom is not the only reason.My own obsession with multitasking mainly comes from the fact that everyone around me seems to study all the time. Each minute Im not taking in something new feels like a waste of time. So I always have my headphones on, whether Im commuting, exercising or walking in the park. Im forever listening to something-a course on classical music, or on new media management, and heaven knows what else-just so I can keep up with the world.People who cant stay away from social media are known by FOMO (fear of missing out): They have to be updated about what their friends are doing and saying. But Id guess that FOFO better describes me fear of falling out.No matter what reason youre doing it for, multitasking is already a part of the modern lifestyle. Just make sure you make the most out of it.（1）In the first paragraph, the author wants to _. A . show how busy todays life isB . show that people today often feel lostC . explain what multitasking OCD is likeD . say people like to compare with each other（2）According to Sabry Otmani people today like multitasking because _. A . it can help them to communicate their ideasB . it can help them out of being boredC . they are impatient to finish one thing at a timeD . they are more able than the past generations（3）The underlined word obsession may mean _. A . interestB . knowledgeC . understandingD . worry（4）Which of the following is correct about the writer? A . She wants to stay ahead of her friends.B . She wants to have something to show off.C . She doesnt want to get left behind by others.D . She thinks it is boring to do one thing at a time.四、 补全对话 (共1题；共5分)16. （5分）从方框中选择最佳选项完成对话, 有两项多余。Grace: Do you like watching TV?Jane:_Grace:_.Jane: I AM A SINGER.
