(河北省衡水冀州中学2017届高复班第二次阶段考试)When Pat Jones finishes college, she decides to travel around the world and see as many foreign places as she could while she was young. Pat wants to visit Latin America first, so she got a job as an English teacher in a school in Bolivia. Pat spoke a little Spanish, so she was able to communicate with her students even when they didn’t know much English.

Once, a sentence she had read somewhere struck her mind; if you dream in a foreign language, you have really mastered it. Pat repeated this sentence to her students and hopes that some day she would dream in Spanish and they would dream in English.

One day, one of her worst students came up and explained in Spanish that he had not done his homework. He had gone to bed early and had slept badly.

＂What does this have to do with your homework?＂ Pat asked.

＂I dreamed all night, Miss Jones. And my dream was in English.＂

＂In English?＂ Pat was very surprised, since he was such a bad student. She was even secretly jealous. Her dream was still not in Spanish. But she encouraged her young students, ＂Well, tell me about your dream.＂

＂All the people in my dream spoke English. All the newspapers and magazines and all the TV programs were in English.＂

＂But that’s wonderful,＂ said Pat. ＂What did all the people say to you?＂

Master Your Deadlines

The struggle begins in high school, sometimes earlier. Deadlines, and lots of them, start to pile up. At college, the pressure sometimes leads to last-minute rush and unsatisfactory work. At work, failing to meet deadlines can easily get you fired. 1. Here are a few best practices.

·Assign deadlines to what matters.

If the task isn’t of high importance, don’t set a specific deadline. In this way, you are able to keep it on your radar for a while without feeling pressured. 2. This will provide just enough pressure to ensure you get it done.

·3.

Set a personal deadline for yourself a day or two before the actual deadline 4. If you’re working with a group of people, add in even more time to account for potential follow-ups and the need for approvals.

·Keep communicating.

5. This means letting others know when something is taking longer than expected，when a delivery didn’t come in，when a client is not providing the necessary information，etc. Although it may feel embarrassing to admit that something is not on schedule，being honest is much better for relieving your stress.

A. Plan for flexible hours.

B. Finish your project as early as possible.

C. But if an activity is urgent, set a deadline immediately.

D. In this way, you’ll never have to stay up late and feel stressed.

E. But handled properly, deadlines can actually improve productivity.

F. Whenever you feel challenged to finish work on time, communicate.

G. So if anything takes longer than expected, you can still wrap it up and submit it on time.

If we stay at home, it is comfortable but there is no need to spend money. But in that case, we will learn little about world. If we go on a trip abroad, we can broaden your view and gain knowledges we cannot get from books. Some classmates suggest we can go to places of interest nearby. I thought that it is a good idea.

The Internet is full of headlines that grab your attention with buzzwords (流行词). But often when we click through, we find the content hardly delivers and it wastes our time. We close the page, feeling we’ve been cheated. These types of headlines are called ＂click bait＂.

A headline on Businesslnsider.com reads: ＂This phrase will make you seem more polite＂. First, when you click through, you find another headline: ＂Four words to seem more polite.＂ Then, on reading the article, you find it’s actually an essay about sympathy. And what are the four words? They’re ＂Wow, that sounds hard.＂ On some video websites, you might encounter headlines such as ＂Here’s what happens when six puppies visited a campus＂. Turns out it’s just some uninteresting dog footage (镜头).

Nowadays, with the popularity of social media, many news outlets tweet (推送) click bait links to their stories. These tweets take advantage of the curiosity gap or attempt to draw the reader into a story using a question in the headline. These click bait headlines are so annoying that someone is attempting to save people time by exposing news outlet click bait through social media. The Twitter account @SavedYouAClick, run by Jake Beckman, is one such example.

Beckman’s method is to grab tweets linking to a story and retweet them with a click-saving comment. For example, CNET tweeted ＂So iOS 8 appears to be jailbreakable but...＂, with a link to its coverage of Apple’s product announcements. Beckman retweeted it with this comment attached: ＂... it hasn’t been jailbroken yet.＂

Since founding the account, Beckman’s Twitter experiment has brought him more than 131,000 followers. Beckman said that @SavedYouAClick is…＂just my way of trying to help the Internet be less terrible.＂ Asked about his goal, he said, ＂I’d love to see publishers think about the experience of their readers first. I think there’s an enormous opportunity for publishers to provide readers with informative updates that include links so you can click through and read more.

1.The article on Businesslnsider.com turns out to be___________.

A. useful suggestions on politeness

B.an essay about another topic

C.an article hard to understand

D. a link to a video website

2.Why are readers often cheated by tricky headlines?

A. Social media has become more popular.

B. Readers have questions to be solved.

C. Such headlines are fairly attractive.

D. There’re always stories behind them.

3.Beckman attached his comment to CNET’s tweet to __________.

A. criticize CNET

B. save readers’ time

C. advertise apple’s new product

D. tell readers something about iOS 8

4.In the last paragraph, Beckman appeals that _________.

A. publishers be more responsible for the link

B. readers think about their needs before reading

C. publishers provide more information for readers

D. people work together to make the Internet less terrible
