Do you get upset because you can’t accomplish what you want to? When you can get organized, keep things under control, and live a neat life, you can work faster and think more creatively. Here are some tips that can help:
Make schedules and deadlines
1. They recognize that keeping things organized goes hand-in-hand with staying productive. They make and keep schedules for the day and week. They make deadlines and set goals. And most importantly, they stick to them!
Give everything a home
It’s easy to get lost if you don’t have a home. Keeping your life organized means keeping your things in their proper places. Organized people keep order by storing things properly and by labeling storage spaces. Make easy-to-access storage spaces for things you use all the time. 2.
3.
Highly organized people make sure they find time every week or more to organize their things. Stuff does not stay organized on its own; it needs to be reorganized continuously and consistently. Use small bits of time to clean out a drawer or put old clothes into a box for donation.
Stay away from bargains
You have removed the things you don’t need. Will you replace them when you see something on sale? Instead of bargain shopping without planning ahead, write down exactly what you need and buy only those items. 4. Items on sale will only produce more waste.
Work hard
Put in a little effort. 5. Staying organized is not all a breeze. It requires that you work hard with recognition that when you work harder, you can enjoy your mess-free home life later. What’s more important is to remember what you work for is meaningful to you.
A.Tidy regularly
B.Know what you need.
C.Actually, put in much when necessary.
D.Don’t jump back and forth from room to room.
E.Organized people never give in to false advertising.
F.Organized people don’t waste time.
G.Organized people only keep what they need and what they really want.
Clearing the air in class saw significant boosts to reading and math achievement of students, according to a New York University study, even though the outdoor pollution didn’t prove to be a problem. The findings suggest improving air quality may also help disadvantaged students who often live in more polluted areas and attend class in older buildings.
Michael Gilraine, study author at New York University, analyzed both the air quality and the math and reading test scores at the 18 schools. In schools that received the new air filters, students improved by 0.18 of a standard deviation(标准偏差) in reading and 0.2 of a standard deviation in math, compared to students’ performance in the schools that did not receive air filters. To put that in perspective, those gains are about equal to the learning benefits from reducing class sizes or providing intensive tutoring. Students sustained those math and reading gains the next year, particularly if they attended the same school or another that had installed new filters in the following year. “In fact, given the large test-score increases they generate, installing air filters actually outperforms other education reforms such as class-size reduction on a cost-benefit basis,” Gilraine said.
Prior studies have found that better air quality can lead to fewer teacher and student absences, particularly for those with chronic asthma (慢性哮喘) or other respiratory illnesses. While schools with the new air filters installed did have lower student absenteeism, attendance alone didn’t seem to be driving the gains in math and reading achievement. Rather, he said, “you can get a lot just from being able to think clearly while you take a test. And then you also might be learning a bit better because you’re thinking clearer in class from day to day”.
Separate studies have found rising average temperatures likewise can increase indoor air pollution and reduce student achievement, particularly if students take tests on hot days.
“We’ve had a decade or more of research into the effects of lead. There’s been much less research on the effects of air quality We’re still in early days.” added Gilraine.
1.What did the study find?
A.Outdoor pollution does harm to students’ health.
B.Clean air promotes the students’ study achievement.
C.Air quality puts New York University at a disadvantage.
D.Polluted areas and old buildings have air problems.
2.How did the researcher conduct his study?
A.By making analysis and comparison.
B.By giving examples and listing basic data.
C.By telling stories and doing experiments.
D.By demonstrating the causes and effects.
3.According to Gilraine, what makes the students gain achievement?
A.Fewer teacher and student absences.
B.Rising temperatures in class.
C.Clearer thinking in better air quality.
D.Taking a math and reading test everyday.
4.What can we infer about the Gilraine’s research?
A.It will focus on the research of lead. B.It gets off with a good start.
C.It gets lots of support from schools. D.It still has a long way to go.
There have been thousands of marine species that have become extinct. Currently there are thousands of fish that are endangered and in great need of protection. The following are some.
The Arcadian Redfish are found in warm waters, such as the Atlantic and Indian Ocean. These fish mature at a late age (5 to 6 years) and have low reproductive rates. However, they can live to be 50 years old, which is relatively remarkable. Young redfish are marked with patches of black and green color. They don’t develop their red color until after they move to the ocean bottom. Now the Arcadian Redfish is endangered due to overfishing. These fish started to decrease in population in the early 1900s because of their increased popularity in the food industry.
The Bluefin tuna is one animal that is high on the endangered species list. This fish has been named one of the wonders of the ocean, because they can grow to be 12 feet long and weigh over 1, 500 pounds! Why are these fish disappearing at alarming rates? Because they are being captured for food, with over 75% consumed in Japanese restaurants often by making a popular sushi.
The European Eel is found in the Baltic and the Mediterranean Sea. They have a unique metamorphosis process and they change their forms over a longtime period. According to IUCNRedList.org, the European Eel is one of the threatened species that are not only endangered, but critically endangered.
The whale shark is one of many endangered sharks out there. According to one source, sharks are revered as our last “living” dinosaurs. They are known as the largest fish with the potential to grow over 60 feet long and weigh over 70,000 pounds. The whale shark also has the potential to live to be over 100 years old.
1.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A.The Last “Living” Dinosaurs B.The Endangered Ocean Fish

2.What can we learn about The Arcadian Redfish?
A.They are found in the Arctic Ocean.
B.They are born to be red.
C.Their survival rate is relatively low.

3.What makes the Bluefin tuna one of the wonders of the deep-sea?
A.Huge size. B.Strange color.
C.Sharp sight. D.High intelligence.
4.What does the underlined word “metamorphosis” mean?
