Are you a procrastinator?

Following a schedule and doing things on time is extremely important in today’s busy world.

Unfortunately, not everyone is good at doing this. Many people are procrastinators; they put off

doing things that they need to until it’s too late.

We all put off doing things at times. Statistics show that 90% of university students will often put off studying for a test or writing an important paper the night before, 25% of university students put off almost everything all the time. This more serious form of procrastination can result in a student dropping out of school. Students who put off doing their assignments once in a while get further and further behind in their studies. Before long, they feel completely helpless. For the chronic(长期的)procrastinator, often the only way to solve this problem is to quit school.

According to recent studies, there are three main reasons that students put off doing things. First, many have poor time-management skills and often try to do too much in too little time. In the end, these students often feel helpless and will put off doing many things they need to. Another reason why students put off doing things is that they feel a subject is boring and have something because they don’t like it. a third reason why many students put off doing things is that they often worry that their work will never be as good as it should be and fear failure of any kind, which, unfortunately , can often cause these students to put off doing any work at all.

Do you recognize any of these signs in yourself? If so, you may want to do something about your tendency towards procrastination. The following five tips may be helpful.

First, list the things in life that are important to you, and then list the reasons why you are at school or university. Look at the two lists and see where they match. Is there something you need to do in order to achieve a life goal?

Second, chose realistic goals for yourself; don’t try to do more than you can.

Third, once you have identified our goals, list them and ask yourself “Which should I do first?” As you become more aware of what you need to do and when you need to do it, you will feel more in control and will be able to complete tasks on time.

Fourth, manage your time wisely. Create a schedule that allows adequate time for accomplishing a goal; for example, your schedule should give you enough time to study for and pass a test, as well as time to relax.

Finally, when you accomplish a goal, do something good for yourself as a reward.

If you believe that you are a chronic procrastinator, you should try to get help before it is too late. Talk to a professional, and discuss the problem. If you are a mild procrastinator, make sure to keep yourself motivated, but don’t worry too much. Remember-we all put off doing things at times.

He was, by far, the most capable man among his workmates, One day, when he was finishing his work of the day, he heard Jack calling him.

“What are you going to do about…?” asked Jack.

“I’ll come off the end rail,” interrupted Al.

“No, I mean about Joe’s promotion?”

“I’m going back to school,” Al said.

“Excuse me!”

“I’m going back to school,” Al repeated.

“You mean you’re quitting!”

Was it that simple? Is this why there was so much misery in men’s lives? “I’m going back to school” was just an excuse, and Al knew it, thought Jack, or Al would not be drunk. It seemed that Al would rather get drunk than fight for his happiness. But why? Jack had no answer.

“Yes, and I’m going back to school. I don’t know what else to do. I can’t believe that this kind of thing can happen. Maybe if I get more education and a better job, it will be different.”

“Do you really believe that?”

“Well, what do you want we to do?” Al was getting angry: “I can’t stay here! I can’t work where the most incapable get the biggest reward! I can’t kill Joe and the boss like…”

Al did not answer.

“Yes, I killed two men with my bare hands; yes, I got punished and lost my job-but I kept my soul!”

The massive 8.8 quake, the seventh strongest in recorded history, hit Chile and should have shortened the length of an Earth day by 1.26 milliseconds, More impressive is how much the quake shifted the Earth’s axis(地轴).

The computer mode! Used to determine the effects of the Chile earthquake effect also found that it should have moved the Earth’s figure axis by about 8 cm. The Earth’s figure figure axis is not the same as its north-south axis, which Earth turns around once every day at a speed of about 1,604 kph. The figure axis is the axis around which the Earth’s mass is balanced. It is offset(偏离) from the Earth’s north-south axis by about 10 meters.

Strong earthquakes can change Earth’s days and its axis. The 9.1 Sumatran earthquake in 2004, which set off a deadly tsunami(海啸),should have shortened Earth’s days by 0.0068 milliseconds and shifted its axis by about 7cm.

One Earth day is about 24 hours long. Over the course of a year, the length of a day normally changes gradually by one millisecond, It increases in the winter when Earth more slowly, and decreases in the summer.

The Chile earthquake was much smaller than the Sumatran quake, but its effects on the Earth are larger because of its location. The fault(断层) responsible for the 2010 Chile quake also cuts through Earth at a larger angle that the Sumatran quake’s fault. This makes the Chile fault ore effective in moving the Earth’s mass vertically and hence more effective in shifting the Earth’s figure axis.

The findings are based on early date available on the Chile earthquake. The Chile earthquake has killed more than 700 people and cause widespread damage in the South American country.

64.What’s the biggest problem caused by the Chile quake?

A.It is the seventh strongest in recorded history.

B.It should have shortened the length of an Earth day.

C.It shifted the Earth’s axis.

D.It made the day longer on Earth.

65.Comparing the Sumatram earthquake with the Chile earthquake, we know that__________.

A.the Sumatram earthquake had more effect on Earth

B.the location of the Chile earthquake is responsible for its larger effects on Earth.

C.the Sumatram earthquake was less destructive

D.the Chile earthquake fault changed the Earth’s mass

66.What does the word “it” in the 4th paragraph refer to?

A.The leng of a day.           B.The axis.

C.One millisecond.            D.The change of the day.

We typically associate the word “science” with a person in a white coat doing experiments in a laboratory. Ideally, experiments should play as big a role in the human sciences as they do in the natural sciences; but in practice this is not usually the case. The are at least three reasons for this.

1.Human scientists are often trying to make sense of complex real world situations in which it is simply impossible to run controlled experiment.

2.The artificiality of some of the experiments that can be conducted may make the behavior of the participants abnormal.

3.There are moral reasons for not conducting experiments that have a negative effect on the people who participate in them.

Faced with the above difficulties, what are human scientists to do? One solution is to wait for nature to provide the appropriate experimental conditions. We can, for example, learn something about how a normal brain functions by looking at people who have suffered brain damage; and we can gain some understanding into the roles played by genes and the environment by studying twins, who have been separated at birth and brought up in different families. In the case of economics, economic history can provide us with a bank of-admittedly not very well-controlled-experimental data.

However, human scientists do not just sit around waiting for natural experiments to arise. They also think of some experiments of their own. Suppose you want to know how a baby sees the world. We cannot, of course, ask the baby since it has not yet learnt to speak. So it might seem that all we can do is guess. People usually won’t change their mind until it was found out that babies tend to stare at surprising things longer than at unsurprising ones. This key understanding was like opening a window on to the developing mind. There was now a way of testing babies’ expectations and getting some idea of how they are six months old, babies can already do the following things: figuring out that objects consist of parts that move together being aware of the difference between living and non-living things and even doing simple arithmetic work.

60.What is true about the natural sciences and the human sciences according to this passage?

A.Both human scientists and natural scientists can run controlled experiments.

B.Experiments done by human scientists and natural scientists are artificial.

C.Both human and natural science experiments should be of the same importance.

D.It’s not moral to conduct human science experiments.

61.What do we know about human scientists from this passage?

A.They are white coat scientists.

B.They have more experimental sources than natural scientists.

C.They conduct experiments passively.

D.They face more difficulties in carrying out their research.

62.Which of the following experiments belongs to human science experiment?

A.Vinegar Volcano Vinegar and baking soda make. for a fun and easy science experiment. Try creating a vinegar volcano.

B.Taste Without Smell Put your senses to the test with this simple experiment that shows the

importance of your sense of smell.

C.Lung Function Observe your breath and confirm your lung volume by completing this experiment.

D.Make a Rainbow Use sunlight and water to make your own rainbow with this cool experiment

that will teach kids how rainbows work while they enjoy a fun activity

63.What does the author tell us in this passage?

A.ABCs about the science experiment.

B.Some knowledge of science.

C.Some differences between the human sciences and the natural sciences.

D.The similarity of the natural sciences and the human sciences.

第三部分:阅读理解(共15小题,每题2分,满分30分)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Most book reviews start with a heading that includes all the basic information about the book, like:

Title.

Author.

Place of publication; publisher, date of publication.

Number of pages.

Like most pieces of writing, the review usually begins with an introduction that lets your readers know what the review will say. The first paragraph usually includes the author and title again, so your readers don’t have to look up to find this information. You should also include a very brief description of the contents of the book, the purpose or audience for the book, and your reaction and evaluation.

Then you move into a section of background information that helps place the book in context and discusses criteria for judging the book. Next, the review gives a summary of the main points of the book, quoting(引用) and explaining key phrases from the author. Finally, you get to the heart of your review – your evaluation of the book. In this section, you might discuss some of the following issues:

how well the book has achieved its goal

what possibilities are suggested by the book

what the book has left out

how the book compares with others on the subject

what specific points are not convincing

what personal experiences you’ve had related to the subject.

It is important to use labels to carefully distinguish your views from the author’s, so that you don’t confuse your reader.

Then, like other essays, you can end with a direct comment on the book, and tie together issues raised in the review in a conclusion.

There is, of course, no set form, but a general rule is that the first one – half to two – thirds of the review should summarize the author’s main ideas and at least one – third should evaluate the book.

56.What is the most important part of a book review?

A.The heading.           B.The evaluation.

C.The conclusion.              D.The introduction.

57.It can be confusing to readers if __________.

A.there is no heading in a book review

B.the book has achieved its goal

C.the viewer’s point of view is not distinguished from the author’s

D.the book is compared with others on the same subject

58.What is NOT suggested for a book review in this passage?

A.Quoting from the author of the book.

B.Providing some book information.

C.Analyzing only the author of the book.

D.Comparing the book with others of a similar subject.

59.The best title for this passage is “__________”.

A.Steps to follow

B.Tips for writing a book review

C.The way to develop your idea

D.Things not to be avoided in a book review
