You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (弹跳) back.But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop oneof these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?Don’t look down on your wor th by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.Don’t let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.Don’t give up when you still have something to give.

Knowledge is a treasure (珍宝) you can always carry easily.Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back.

They became just part of the furniture, collecting only dust and __88__.Perhaps knowing he would never read them all, he gave almost all of the books away, keeping only a few. He treated them well, as if any damage would destroy them totally. Gone was the man who would draw coffee mark, replaced by one who would fly into anger.I have read a few now, after he died, and each time it causes a __89__. But I suppose it is a kind of joy, because if I can take on his desire for __90__, cheerful smile, and willingness to help others, then like a match in the darkness, I will bring a little light into the world. And if that light touches others, maybe it will spread far and __91__, to light up the heavens. I think he'd like that.85. A. something B. all C. nothing D. everything86.

Here are 5R rules for us.Reduce(减少) If you want to reduce waste, you should use things more cleverly. A large number of trees are being c__92__ down to make paper. If everyone uses paper carelessly, soon we would not have any trees left. Other things are also being wasted, and people don’t know what to do with the waste in big cities.

Different advice in recent newspapers appears to be against the old “8-a-day” advice we all grew up with. Is it necessary to drink down eight glasses of water daily, or is this already out of date?We’ve heard for years that eight glasses of water daily is necessary for a person to keep healthy. Your weight loss and health depend on it. Drink eight glasses of water daily and see clearer skin, better slee p, and improve eyesight. We’re warned of losing water without at least eight glasses. But, there are some new ideas of examining your daily diet, including what you eat, as well as what you drink.The answer is … you need what you need! If it’s summer, you need more. if you’re exercising, you need more. If you’re a “normal” inactive person, and not exercising more than 15-20 minutes daily, you need no more than four glasses of water daily. Most drinks can be counted as part of your daily water intake. Although the World Health Organization suggests that eight cups, the old “8-a-day” rule is based on studies on people under difficult situations, including soldiers at high altitude and hospitalized patients what you and I need is different.99. Is the writer surprised if you don’t know how much water you need?100. What does the old “8-a day” advice mean?101. What can you see after drinking eight glasses of water?102. You don’t need to drink eight glasses of water daily if you are a “normal” inactive person, do you?103. Whom is the old “8-a day” rule for, for example?104. How much water do you really need according to the writer?105. What is the article mainly about?IX. Writing (作文): (共18分)106.
