题目内容

In 2013, China chose “中国,”which means “Chinese dream,” as the Character of the Year to symbolize the overall feeling of the past 366 days. It’s easy to see why the word “dream” would be chosen as so many Chinese dreams have been recently realized: space exploration, a China-made aircraft carrier and a Nobel Prize-winning author.

Finishing national dreams makes us proud, but realizing personal dreams makes us worthy in our own eyes. Though the media would try to convince you, there is no set of “approved” dreams that we should all go after. Some may strive for money, fame and power, but others have more humble dreams that are just as important: learn English, study abroad, achieve inner peace, and be of service to humanity. It’s normal for people to create lofty New Year’s resolutions and just as normal to start strong and give up a few weeks later on our goals. How do we make sure that we achieve our dreams? Make your resolutions SMART and they’ll come true.

S specific, detailed goals are easier to accomplish.

M— measurable goals enable you to complete a fixed amount of something.

A— achievable goals are possible, not ones that would take magic or miracles to accomplish.

R— relevant goals are meaningful to you.

T— time bound goals have an ending date. They’re not infinite. You know when you’re done.

Trip Bethel, a local college professor suggests that all goals should be positive and future-focused. “You can’t make a goal about being perfect. You’ ll always disappoint yourself. But you can make a goal about perfecting your process. Then, you’re always on the way to a better life.”

Trip says many people write endless lists, but he just writes his resolutions once. He states them simply on a piece of paper and then puts the paper away for a year. “Often, when I look at the paper a year later, I’ve accomplished everything, or gotten close. There is something about writing things down that makes goals real and the opportunities to achieve them will come into your life.”

This March, the H7N9 virus (病毒) hit Shanghai, Anhui, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and so on. It seemed that most people who were infected(被感染) with H7N9 had the common flu. Some people suffered from a fever or a cough.  

Don’t be afraid—it’s not easy to be infected with the virus. Here is some advice to help you protect yourself when it comes.

Wash your hands. You need to wash your hands with soap and hot water before you eat, after you use the toilet, and after you touch animals, because your hands may carry viruses.

Cover your nose and mouth. When someone sneezes(打喷嚏) or coughs, flu viruses can travel as far as one meter through the air, so you’d better stand a proper distance (距离) while talking to someone who has a cold. And always cover your mouth and nose with a piece of paper when you sneeze or cough, and then clean your hands.

Wear a mask(口罩). Some doctors say that masks can stop the flu as much as 80%, but if

you don’t wash your hands often, it’s no use wearing a mask. And it’s necessary to wear the mask in the groups of people.

Do sports often. Exercises will help make your body strong enough to resist the virus. 

1.When did the H7N9 virus hit Shanghai?

A.In March, 2013.  B.In May, 2013.       C.In March, 2012.

2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.Some people who were infected with the H7N9 virus had a toothache.

B.You should cover your mouth and nose with a piece of paper when you sneeze or cough.

C.Some doctors say that masks can stop the flu as much as 100%.

3.How many ways to stop the virus are mentioned in the passage?

A.Three.         B.Four.   C.Five.

4.What does the underlined word “resist ” mean in Chinese?

A.抵抗   B.传播   C.感染
