William Shakespeare once wrote, “Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.” While this may be a stretch, the principle is correct. 1
Throughout your life, you will encounter similar circumstances that require punctuality, such as handing in homework assignments; arriving at school, a job or a meeting; picking up someone from the airport, school, work, etc. avoid embarrassing moments by ridding yourself of any tendency to be late.
Here are some tips:
● Learn to manage your time wisely, which includes setting deadlines. There are a fixed number of minutes in a day---and only one of you. 2
● 3 This ensures they do not assume that you will be available for other projects.
● Procrastination(拖延) is a thief of time---avoid it at all costs! This includes waiting until the last second to start a task simply because you find it unpleasant.
4 Worrying about it will not accomplish anything!
● Before agreeing on a particular time for something, think about other events that might interfere.
● Try counting back from the scheduled time to figure out when you should begin getting ready. 5 For example, if you are scheduled to be at work at 9:00 a.m., a 30-minute car ride makes it 8:30, 15 minutes to eat breakfast makes it 8:15, and 30 minutes for grooming(洗刷) makes it 7:45, and so on.
A．If a task is difficult, do it first.
B．It is always better to be early rather than late.
C．Make sure others are aware of your deadlines.
D．A few minutes delay may not be a serious matter.
E. Moreover, habitual unpunctuality leads to indolence (懒散) and even failure in life.
F. Do not worry about the particular order of events; just assign(分配) time values to each.
G. Taking on too many responsibilities means that something will not be finished on time.
There was a woman, about 30 years old, married with two children. She had grown up in a home where she was constantly criticized and often treated unfairly by her parents. As a result, she was negative and fearful, and had no confidence at all.
One day, she was hit by a car. When she awoke, she found herself in a hospital. She could still speak, but had no recollection of any part of her past life. She was a total amnesiac! Her husband and children visited her daily, but she did not know them.
Determined to understand what had happened to her, she began reading medical textbooks and studying in the specialized area of amnesia and memory loss. She met and discussed with specialists in this field. Eventually she wrote a paper on her condition. Not long afterward, she was invited to address a medical conference to deliver her paper, answer questions about her amnesia, and share her experiences and ideas. During this period, something amazing happened. She became a genuinely positive, confident, outgoing woman, well informed, and very much in demand as a speaker and authority in the medical profession. All memory of her negative childhood had been wiped out. She changed her thinking and changed her life.
Each person comes into the world with no thoughts or ideas at all, and everything that a person thinks and feels is learned from babyhood onward. The adult becomes the sum total of everything he or she learns, feels, and experiences while growing up.
Everyone is born with no self-concept at all. Every idea, opinion, feeling, attitude, or value you have as an adult is the result of an idea or impression you took in and accepted as true. When you believe something to be true, it becomes true for you, whatever the fact may be. You are not what you think you are, but what you think, you are.
1.What happened to the woman after the accident?
A．She believed she was not talented.
B．She didn't love her husband any more.
C．She refused to recall her past life.
D．She was in complete memory loss.
2.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?
3.Which statement agrees with the last paragraph?
A．Great minds think alike.
B．Thinking is to man what water is to fish.
C．Confidence in you is the first step on the road to success.
D．You are not what you believe, but what others believe you are.
¤ While the 2008 Olympics were the first to be broadcast entirely in HD, the 2012 Olympics are the first to broadcast in HD as well as 3D. Sean Taylor, a spokesperson for Panasonic – provider of some of the technologies – said it effectively, “Each Games, from a technology perspective, tries to have a first. London will be the first HD and 3D Games.” The games were first televised in Berlin in 1936 and played on big screens about the city. Then came the first games to enter households (strictly in London that is) in 1948, followed by the first internationally televised games during the 1960 Olympics in Rome. And ever since, that feeling of physically standing in the crowd and watching these mighty contestants has only gotten clearer, more defined. Now, they more literally than ever actually compete in your living room.
§ A paradox is presented as the London games celebrate both the Industrial Revolution (a.k.a. the birth of pollution) and a spirit of committed environmentalism; London will be the first to actively measure its own carbon footprint during these games, designing a stadium and accommodations that cut-back on negative emissions when at all possible. They are also shooting for a world record via the “Javelin,” designed specifically to keep as many exhaust pipes at bay as humanly possible.
1.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. The Industrial Revolution first happened in England.
B. 2012 London Olympics is the first to broadcast in HD.
C. People couldn’t see the Olympic Games on TV 80 years ago.
D. 2012 London Olympics is more environmentally friendly than before.
2.What does the underlined word “paradox” probably mean in the text?
A．solid evidence B．advanced thought
C．perfect opinion D．contradictory view
3.Where does this text probably come from?
A．a novel B．a report C．a diary D．an essay
4.What can be the best title for the text?
A．The History of Olympic Games.
B．Two Firsts about 2012 London Olympics
C．2012 London Olympics --- Eco-Conscious Games
D．2008 Beijing Olympics and 2012 London Olympics
A four-year study of 200 college students found that those who drink heavily and started drinking at an early age demonstrate poor decision-making skills, just like long-term, chronic(长期的) alcoholics. Researchers at the University of Missouri-Columbia believe early onset binge drinking negatively affects psychological development.
The researches examined college students between the ages of 18 and 22. After three years, they tested them using the Iowa Gambling Test, which measures the tendency to make immediate (disadvantageous) or long-term (advantageous) choices.
Based on the students’ reported drinking habits, they were grouped into four categories: low binge drinkers, moderate binge drinkers, increasing binge drinkers and stable or high binge drinkers.
“Students in the stable or high alcohol use category, who had longer histories of binge drinking, made riskier and less advantageous choices, which reflect problems associated with planning for the future,” the researchers reported.
The study also found that only students who started binge drinking when they were younger showed impairment on the task.
“There is reason to think that heavy binge drinking during adolescence, when the brain is still rapidly developing, may have some negative legacy (遗传) on psychological development,” said Kenneth J. Sher of MU’s Midwest Alcoholism Research Center in a news release. “The interesting thing is that if we were to just look at binge drinkers and how impaired they are in the decision-making process as juniors, we’d really be obscuring(使模糊) the important issue, which is how long they’ve been binge drinkers and / or how early they started.”
1.What does the passage mainly tell us?
A．Four categories of heavy drinkers.
B．Heavy drinking affects college students.
C．Early onset binge drinkers are poor at decision-making.
D．People drinking at an early age will develop into binge drinkers.
2.Which category would make the most disadvantageous choice?
A．Low binge drinkers B．moderate binge drinkers
C．Increasing binge drinkers D．Stable binge drinkers
3.Early onset binge drinking negatively affects psychological development because _______.
A．adolescent students were not suitable for drinking
B．drinking too much will slow the growth of the brain
C．the brain has not fully developed during adolescence
D．drinking will make the students make dangerous choices
4.What Kenneth J. Sher says suggests that _______.
A．he is quite clear about what the important issue is
B．if binger drinkers started late, there would be no bad effect
C．the important issue is how impaired the students are in decision-making
D．only early binge drinkers will have their decision-making ability affected
