One day in my class，Maria shared her feelings about money，“Money worries me.I think I want to live without money because I hate it.I HATE MONEY.”We were all touched by Maria's words as they reminded us of the spiritual burdens that money managing can bring to us.After class I offered to help Maria deal with her financial problems.She hesitated to accept my offer，and I could see from the expression on her face that she was afraid of what it might involve.I quickly promised her that I wouldn't make her do more than she was able to.I told her frankly that I didn't enjoy managing my money any more than she did hers and wouldn't burden her with guilt，judgments，or impossible tasks.All I would ask her to do was to let me help her look at her fears and try to make some sense of them. Maria still resisted my offer，and I can remember the excuses she gave me as they were the repeated complaints I had heard from so many people.“I'll never understand money，”she said.“My facts are meaningless.”“I don't deserve to have money.”“I never have enough.”“I have too little to manage.”“My financial position isn't worth looking at.”and the most devastating one of all，“I just can't do it.” Going home that day，I couldn't get Maria out of my mind：her attitude conveyed the same negativity and fear that I believed annoyed many people.I was sure it was this attitude that prevented people from managing their money effectively.My counseling(咨询)has taught me that these anxieties are inseparably connected to our selfdoubts and fear for survival.Many of us are terrified of handling our money because we don't believe we can do it well，and to do it wrong would put our very existence at risk. On a deeper level we know that money is not the source of life，but sense of worth drives us to act as if it were.It locks us up in selfdoubts and prevents us from tapping into the true source of our management power，our spirit. 1.The underlined word“devastating”in Paragraph 2 probably means ________. A．convincing B．interesting C．shocking D．valuable 2.Maria's words moved the author and others because they were ________. A．in the same financial trouble B．in the same financial condition C．of the same family background D．of the same feeling over the issue 3.As for money managing，the author intended to tell Maria how to ________. A．overcome her fears B．make wise decisions C．avoid making mistakes D．learn the necessary skills 4.Maria wouldn't take the author's offer of help for fear of________. A．being forced to share her money with others B．having to do something beyond her reach C．being found guilty of making impossible errors D．showing her judgment about money 5.According to the author，people's anxieties about managing money result from their understanding of money as the only source of ________. A．life B．values C．spirit D．power

Too cold for recess? School policies vary as much as temps When is it too cold for schoolchildren to go outside for recess（课间休息）? The answer varies widely based on where a school is located and what the kids are used to. Consider: One northern Minnesota school says it has to be 15 below zero before kids are kept inside. But in areas along the East Coast, temperatures below 35 to 40 degrees could keep kids inside. Canceling recess because of the cold is no small issue considering that much of the USA is trembling through what may be its coldest winter in a generation, according to AccuWeather. There is no national temperature standard for when to keep kids inside during the winter months, the U.S. Department of Education says. Decisions are made at the local level, either by principals or school districts. Consequently, policies are all over the map: • In International Falls, Minn., the self-described "Icebox of the Nation," where the average high temperature in January is 13 degrees, Falls Elementary School Principal Jerry Hilfer says, "if it's 15 below (or warmer), they go out, no matter what." "At 20 below, it gets iffy," he adds. • In Wicomico County, Md., principals typically keep children indoors when temperatures drop below freezing, or if it's raining or snowing, says Susan Jones, the school system's director of elementary education. "That's the bottom line," says Curtis Twilley, principal of Pemberton Elementary School in Salisbury, Md. Twilley says students get little exercise when recess stays indoors. At Pemberton Elementary, the students will typically play board games or computer games in a classroom because the school's gym is occupied with other classes, he says. • For schools in Marquette, Mich., which averages about 12 feet of snow per season, school officials acknowledge students are probably a little more prepared than those in some more mild climates. 1.Which of the following is not true according to the passage_________. A. No national temperature standard is made for when to keep kids inside during the winter months B. Susan Jones insists students get little exercise when recess stays indoors. C. In Wicomico County, children are kept indoors when temperatures dip below freezing. D. Mich has about 12 feet of snow per season on average. 2.Which place calls itself Box of Ice? A. Wicomico County B. Marquette C.Salisbury D. Minn 3. Considering_______, canceling recess In USA because of the cold is a big issue. A. different schools have different principles. B. much of the USA has very cold winter. C. physical activity can boost student performance. D. decisions are made at the local level, 4.The underlined word iffy means _______. A. uncertain B. surprising C. serious D. worse 5.What will be talked about next? A. More school policies B. The reasons why school policies vary. C. Measures to improve the situation. D. Necessities to improve the situation.

The past ages of man have all been carefully labeled by anthropologists. Descriptions like ‘Palaeolithic Man’, ‘Neolithic Man’, etc., neatly sum up whole periods. When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twentieth century, they will surely choose the label ‘Legless Man’. Histories of the time will go something like this: ‘in the twentieth century, people forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age. There were lifts and escalators in all large buildings to prevent people from walking. This situation was forced upon earth dwellers of that time because of miles each day. But the surprising thing is that they didn’t use their legs even when they went on holiday. They built cable railways, ski-lifts and roads to the top of every huge mountain. All the beauty spots on earth were ruined by the presence of large car parks.’ The future history books might also record that we were deprived of the use of our eyes. In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way. Air travel gives you a bird’s-eye view of the world—or even less if the wing of the aircraft happens to get in your way. When you travel by car or train a blurred (=not clear) image of the countryside constantly smears the windows. Car drivers, in particular, are forever obsessed with the urge to go on and on: they never want to stop. Is it the lure (引诱；诱惑) of the great motorways, or what? And as for sea travel, it hardly deserves mention. It is perfectly summed up in the words of the old song: ‘I joined the navy to see the world, and what did I see? I saw the sea.’ The typical twentieth-century traveler is the man who always says ‘I’ve been there. ’You mention the remotest, most evocative (引起记忆的) place-names in the world like El Dorado, Kabul, Irkutsk and someone is bound to say ‘I’ve been there’—meaning, ‘I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else.’ When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless. You want to move on again. By traveling like this, you suspend all experience; the present ceases to be a reality: you might just as well be dead. The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present. For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical weariness. He knows that sound. Satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travellers. 1. Anthropologists label nowadays’ men ‘Legless’ because _________. A. people forget how to use his legs. B. people prefer cars, buses and trains. C. lifts and escalators prevent people from walking. D. there are a lot of transportation devices. 2.Travelling at high speed means _________. A. people’s focus on the future B. a pleasure C. satisfying drivers’ great thrill D. a necessity of life 3.Why does the author say ‘we are deprived of the use of our eyes’? A. People won’t use their eyes. B. In traveling at high speeds, eyes become useless. C. People can’t see anything on his way of travel. D. People want to sleep during travelling. 4.What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage? A. Legs become weaker. B. Modern means of transportation make the world a small place. C. There is no need to use eyes. D. The best way to travel is on foot. 5. What does ‘a bird’s-eye view’ mean? A. See view with bird’s eyes. B. A bird looks at a beautiful view. C. It is a general view from a high position looking down. D. A scenic place.

阅读下面的短文，并根据要求回答问题。 Even if you really enjoy your job, it’s still possible to battle boredom as you work. You may not be able to make big changes—or change your job—but you can make small adjustments to your routine that can make every day seem, well, a little less routine. 1. Switch Your Seat Change your outlook at the office by changing your office. Ask your supervisor to help you find a new desk. Even switching desks with a neighboring coworker can offer a fresh atmosphere. If it's not possible to change your location, see if you can change your desk’s direction. A new view can be just as refreshing as a new location. 2. ______________ Start and end your day in a different way. Consider a new mode of transportation, if it’s possible. Take a subway. Ride a bike on sunny days. Carpool with a coworker. Use a new route to get to your job. You needn't change it for ever—just long enough to help you escape the boredom. 3. Find a New Work Style Sick of attending that long-standing Monday morning meeting? Try to change it to the afternoon. If you find yourself feeling most bored in the afternoons, try to arrange to do your favorite tasks then and tackle less desirable projects in the mornings. If you usually communicate with coworkers via email and instant messaging, start dealing with people face to face. Increased communication with coworkers may help improve your mood. 4. Get and Set a Goal If your work is short of objectives, it's no wonder that work has become boring. Identify a goal and set an “achieve by” date for it. Your goal needn’t be noble as long as you have enough enthusiasm for it. Perhaps you want to make a new project. Maybe you’d like to pursue a promotion. Or you may even set a goal of finding a new job altogether. Whatever it is, actively move toward an objective. 1.What is the purpose of the passage? (within 15 words) ____________________________________________________________________________ 2.Which sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one? You will feel bored when you are not working toward something. ____________________________________________________________________________ 3.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 5 with proper words. (within 8 words)
4.List three methods of escaping from boredom in your daily. (within 5 words for each) ① ②________________________________ ③_______________________________ 5.Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese. ______________________________________________________________________________
