1.To enjoy the moment, you need to choose not to pay attention to negative thoughts—whether, yours or someone else's. This does not mean that you ignore problems,. but it does mean that you choose not let problems kill your dreams and hopes.

You worry all the time. Worry is using your imagination to create problems, rather than solve them. Worring about problems does not solve them.2.Most of what you worry about never takes place.

You complain about life.3.Do you find yourself complaining about your situation, or what other people have said or done? If you do, it means that you do not accept the reality of your situation or past. That causes stress. Rather than complain, you should change your situation.

You want a pain-free life. Don't fear pain. Pain is a part of living. You cannot travel new paths and attain success without the pain of hard work, taking risks and making mistakes.4.

You blame others for your problems. If you feel anger and resentment(恐惧)against others, blaming them for your problems, then you need to change your mindset.5.They only make you bitter. Instead of being angry, choose to learn and grow from negative experiences, and then let them go.

    Modern agriculture and its ability to feed billions of people may be among humanity’s greatest successes. However, it comes with hidden costs. For example, have you ever considered how much water is needed to provide you with a steak or a salad? It may surprise you.

In a recent study published in the journal Nutrients, scientists from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization(CSIRO), Australia's national science organization, took a close look at the diets of 9,341 adult Australians—specifically, their “water-scarcity footprints(水消耗足迹)”.

It turned out that a sweet tooth not only adds to our waistlines(腰围) but also stresses our water resources. The water-scarcity footprint is a widely recognized measurement of water consumption. First, it counts the liters of water you used. Then, it looks at the place where the water was used. The more lacking water is in your area, the larger your water-scarcity footprint.

The scientists found that the average Australian's diet had a water-scarcity footprint of 362 liters per day. Snacks—cookies, cakes and alcohol—accounted for 25 percent of the water-scarcity footprint. The research also included a glass of wine(41 liters), a single serving of potato chips(23 liters), and a small bar of milk chocolate(21 liters).

Not surprisingly, cutting out snacks would be the N0.1 priority if you wanted to lower your own water-scarcity footprint.

Earth's surface is 70 percent water, but only 2.5 percent of that can be used for drinking or farming. By 2030, a world of about 8.6 billion people will need 35 percent more water, 40 percent more energy, and 50 percent more food, according to the United States National Intelligence Council. So, we need to watch what we eat, not just for our personal health but for the health of our societies.

1.What did the recent study closely focus on?

A.Modern agriculture. B.Average Australians.

C.Water resources. D.Water-scarcity footprints.

2.What did scientists from CSIRO find in their study?

A.Sweet teeth lead to thin waistlines.

B.Australians' diets are mainly made up of snacks.

C.The water-scarcity fooprint is a measurement of saving water.

D.Lacking water in our area means a larger water-scarcity footprint.

3.What does the underlined part “the N0.1 priority” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

A.the least important thing B.the least impossible thing

C.something to be done first D.something to be prevented first

4.What does the last paragraph intend to tell us?

A.Take care of our diets. B.Protect our drinking water.

C.Make good use of energy. D.Produce more healthy food.

    Children of all ages gathered in New York City recently for the International Toy Fair. Hidden among already popular toys were new, high-tech educational products. Toymakers are working to create products for improving a child's emotional intelligence. These toys reportedly not only help raise intelligence in children, but also their emotional quotient, or EQ(情商).

At the toy fair, companies showed off their products.

PleIQ is a set of plastic toy blocks. It uses augmented(增强的)reality technology to teach words, numbers and other things. Edison Durán, the company director, showed people at the toy fair how virtual images appear on the blocks when they are held in front of a tablet camera. Intelligence includes intrapersonal skillsprocessing information within one's mindand interpersonal skillsdealing with other people. Durán said PleIQ builds on both by having children act as teachers or guides to a companion character.

Karen Hu presented an educational robot called Woobo. The robot comes programmed with educational games and activities. Children use its touch screen face to get them started. Toys that work as companions also aid in social development. Hu described how the robot can help a child who suffers from autism(自闭症). "The child can communicate with Woobo and follow some of the instructions Woobo is giving because he thinks of this as a companion instead of a parent or someone else telling him to do certain things."

Jonathan Erickson, the sales director, showed off a board game called "Q"s Race to the Top. "Kevin Chaja said the game got his 4-year-old daughter to open up. "The biggest thing is her talking. And that's the key of all this—getting her feelings expressed out. Like, 'Hey, what does it feel like to be sad?'"

It remains to be seen whether a game or toy can improve emotional intelligence. But toymakers are doing what they can to help parents in their efforts to raise well-rounded children.

1.What does the underlined word "both" in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A.Teachers and guides.

B.Intelligence and emotional quotient.

C.Reality technology and virtual image.

D.Intrapersonal skills and interpersonal skills.

2.What makes the product "Woobo" different from PleIQ?

A.It is communicative. B.It is educational.

C.It can follow a parent. D.It can start of itself.

3.What is Kevin Chaja's attitude to "Q's Race to the Top"?

A.Cautious. B.Favorable.

C.Uncertain. D.Doubtful.

4.What can be a suitable title for the text?

A.International Toy Fair Ended B.Raising Kids Needs New Ways

C.Toys Help Make Children Smart D.Toymakers Try to Train Parents

    Manny Abreu pratices Benjamin Franklin's famous saying. “If you want something done, ask a busy person.”

Throughout his four years at Kellenberg Memorial High School in the US. Abreu made community service, an important part of his life. “I don't know where he finds the time to do everything.” said Erin Ronan, Alreu's math teacher. “He is truly a class act.”

As an honored student, Abreu, 18, took part in different voluntary activities after school, during weekends and summer holidays. These included helping staff at the public library, doing landscape work at kellenberg, and serving customers at a local restaurant.

But faced with a limited number of hours in a day, Abreu left his library job last summer to start working as an emergency medical technician—a role that fits his passion for making a difference in other people's lives.

“My appreciation for service has guided me into giving back,” said Abreu, who is setting his sights on becoming a doctor. “It's such a win-win feeling to help someone in need.”

St Martin de Porres Marianist School also benefited from Abreu's help. Through his school's Smart Club program, he voluntarily provided homework help and played games with the junior high school students. For all his hard work, Abreu was welcomed into a leadership club that organizes fellow students' volunteer activities.

Abreu thanked his parents for inspiring him to do the right thing, saying “they are' the most selfless people I know.” He remembered when he was about 6 years old, and his mother invited a disadvantaged neighborhood boy to have dinner. Upon observing the boy's happiness, Abreu came away with a sense of how he wanted to live his own life— “I won't focus on my own desires. I will help as many people as I can,” he said.

1.What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?

A.To introduce the topic. B.To make a brief explanation.

C.To share a famous saying. D.To praise Benjamin Franklin.

2.How did Abreu do voluntary work during his high school?

A.By organizing school activities. B.By working as a customer.

C.By spending extra time. D.By using special holidays.

3.What does Abreu think of helping others in need?

A.It's challenging. B.It's rewarding.

C.It's stressful. D.It's wasteful.

4.Who influenced Abreu most on his way to being a volunteer?

A.His math teacher. B.His fellow students.

C.His parents. D.His neighborhood boy.
