Many people often lose their chance to live life to the fullest because of procrastination （延迟，拖延）， which means that they always delay（使延迟）doing something that must be done at once． Moreover， because they often put off their plans till "tomorrow"， they are less likely to achieve their goals and will give up their dreams and goals finally． As a result， we can say that procrastination is the enemy of a progressive lifestyle．Now that we know procrastination is something bad， why do some people not take immediate action？ Well， there are some things that result in procrastination． Depending on someone else rather than doing by oneself is one of the things． Whenever you wait for something to happen before you act， you make it easier to delay your goals and dreamsuntil "someday"． Another cause of procrastination is that people do not value each moment in their day． Actually， it's surprising how much you can do if you just decide to do little things with the little time you have． Also those who often procrastinate can always find a good reason for something they refuse to do at once．If you are one of those who often delay， then it's time for you to make a decision to act now because things happen only when we decide to act． Get down to doing something like losing weight， saving money or spending more time with family．Don't let these things continue to be a desire（愿望，渴望） for you to do "someday"， but make a decision to do it at once．Once you have made your decision， write down the plan and take action immediately． Making plans can help you think carefully about how you are going to do what you need to do． After understanding how to do what you want to do， get doing with the plan． It doesn't matter how small the move you make is as the little things you do accumulate（累积）over time and move you to be closer to your goals． So， don't wait until tomorrow； instead， start now! Just make use of every moment you have to do something that is helpful in realizing your dreams and goals．Here is a challenge that will also move you to be closer to your dreams and goals if taken seriously． Make a list of ten things you have been putting off． It could be anything from getting a health examination， calling a friend or family member， to getting the car fixed and cleaning up the garbage， etc． And then try to develop the habit of doing them immediately!六、首字母填空．阅读短文，根据短文内容及首字母提示，在空白处填入一个适当的单词．32.

She often told me that no matter how poor a person was, he could still afford a dream.My dream was athletics. When I was sixteen, I started playing baseball. I could throw a ninety-mile-per-hour fastball and 16 anything that moved on the field. I was also 17 : my high school coach was John, who believed in me and taught me how to believe in myself. He taught me the difference 18 having a dream and remaining true to that dream. One unusual 19 with Coach John changed my life forever.A friend helped me to find a summer job. This meant a chance for money in my pocket for a new bike, new clothes and the 20 of saving for a house for my mother. Then I realized I would have to 21 up summer baseball and that meant I would have to tell John I wouldn't be playing.When I told John, he was 22 as I expected him to be. "You have your whole life to work," he said. "You don't have too many playing days in your life. You can't affordto waste them." I stood before him with my head 23 , trying to think of the 24 that would explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his disappointment in me."How much are you going to make at this job, son?" he asked. "3.5 dollars an hour,"I replied."Well," he asked, "Is $ 3.5 an hour the price of a dream?"That simple question made me understand the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal. I decided myself to play sports that summer and within the year I was taken on by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play baseball, and was 25 a $ 20 000 agreement. Two years later, I bought my mother the house of my dream!16. A. kick B. hit C. pass D. play17. A. right B. shy C. lucky D.comfortable18. A. between B. to C. about D. in19.

Adam is a MBA student at Harvard University. He studies long hours, gets very little sleep, so he drinks a lot of coffee—anywhere from five to six cups a day. Recently, Adam felt that drinking thus much coffee was making it hard for him to sleep at all. He also began having problems with his concentration(注意力), and complained of stomachaches. Adam’s doctor made this suggestions: stop drinking coffee altogether.When Adam got up on October 3, he began his day without his morning coffee. By 11:00 a.m., Adam was in a terrible mood. He was tired and had a headache. At 11:30, he had a meeting with his student advisor. In the meeting, he found it almost impossible to continue. What was going on?Caffeine, a chemical found in coffee, was most likely the reason for how Adam felt. Caffeine is a stimulant that boosts(增加) energy levels and improves concentration- but only for a short time. Lowering caffeine consumption(减少摄取咖啡因) often makes a drop i n blood pressure and the result is a “coffee headache”. People who stop drinking coffee often say they feel tired and moody, and find it hard to focus.The good news is that these feeling usually pass after four and five days. During this time, doctors suggested taking some aspirin for the headache. So, if Adam can wait, in less than a week, he may be feeling much better.29. We learn from the reading Adam .A. does researches on caffeineB. can never be feeling betterC. still drinks 5 to 6 cups of coffee a dayD. had some problems because of coffee30. How may people feel when they stop drinking coffee?A. healthierB. uneasyC. energeticD. awaken31. The good news shows that .A. coffee can never cause headachesB. aspirin can stop us thinking coffeeC. more and more people will give up coffeeD. Adam will be better if he stops drinking coffee(C)When US teenager Jake Olson isn’t playing football or golf for his high school, he’s often offering inspiration(灵感)through his new book about his own life.These activities might be too much for the average 16-year-old to deal with, but Jake is blind. When people ask him how he can possibly play golf without being able to see the ball, he says he is thankful for his father’s guidance.It seems apparent that his early experience playing sports as a person with sight and muscle(肌肉) memory— repeating behaviors over and over until they become second nature — have also enabled Jake to hit the ball quite well.Jake was born with a rare kind of eye cancer that took away the vision from his lefteye when he was a baby and eventually his right eye, in 2009, when he was 12 years old.Rather than letting the disease hold him back, Jake used his loss of sight and his faithas sources of motivation(动力).“If I was going to sit on the couch all day, feeling sorryfor myself, I wasn’t going to do anything. I decided that I was going to go out and persevere(坚持不懈).” he said.It was with that mind-set that the student from Orange Lutheran High School in Californiawas able to write his first book, Open Your Eyes: 10 Uncommon Lessons to Discover a HappierLife. “It’s about opening the readers’ eyes to their true talent in life and making surethat they use all the abilities that they h ave,” Jake said.Jake’s father, Brian Olson, said the family is impressed with what he has done withhis life, including showing people that they can get through hardships. “Your darkest hourcan soon become your brightest, and with every setback, there’s a setup,” Jake said. “Inevery one of us, there’s more potential than we can ever imagine, and it really is a choice.”32. We can learn from the article that Jake Olson .A. was born with blindnessB. has great muscle memoryC. was going to sit on the couch all dayD. is trying to find the cure for his disease33. According to the article, Jake’s family members .A. have pity on him deeplyB. once gave up hope on himC. encouraged him to write the bookD. admire his efforts and determination(决心)34.

When they were six months old, they were chosen for the part of Michelle Tanner on the American TV show, Full House.The producers needed twins because there are rules about the number of hours that a child can work. This meant that one child could not play all the scenes. They took it in turns to film the scenes as Michelle. The twins looked so alike that for a long time viewers of the programme did not know that there were two of them. Full House was on TV for eight years. The twins became celebrities.A business was set up to take advantage of their popularity. Mary-Kate and Ashley products including fashion dolls, videos, books, clothes and perfumes were sold all over the world. The twins’ products were very popular with young girls. Mary-Kate and Ashley soon became millionaires.As the twins got older, they attracted more interest from the media. People wanted to know more about their lives.

But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. "The door to his room is always shut." Joanna noted.Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. "She used to sit in my arms on the sofa and talk with me," said Mark. "Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which."Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what's on their minds. "In fact, parents are first on the list." said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. "This completely changes during the teen years." Riera explained. "They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last."Parents who know what's going on in their teenagers' lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.1．We can know Michael Riera in the passage is ________.A．An author.

It is said that if you take care of your body, then you can surely be healthy. That is why our eyes should be given a lot of care. Natural eye care should be put in a number one place.There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like not enough food, genes(基因)and aging(老化). Televisions, corrupters and reading are also the causes of having poor eyesight. If you work in front of the computer, it is best to take a break every once in a while. Something dirty can cause redness and they will make you feel uncomfortable. It is bad for your eyes, too. If this happens, the best way is to clean your eyes by using cold water. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things.
