Four simple ways to stay positive
Trying to stay positive, both in good times and bad, is a great way to improve your quality of life. Try these four methods on a daily basis.
1). Don't think a lot about negativity.
Of course. Staying positive 24 hours a day, seven days a week is a bit difficult. Letting things get to you is normal, and it's actually healthy to cry or express frustrations once in a while.
It's when those negative moments control your life that your emotional balance is at risk. However, don't give that sadness another second in your day.
2).
What you put into your body directly affects how you feel on the outside. Fill yourself with good, healthy foods like fruits and vegetables and limit snacking. Exercise is equally of great importance. Take a few days out of your week for at least half an hour of activity, and try to stick to it.
3). Be kind to others.
Making someone's day a bit brighter not only puts a smile on his or her face, but also yours as well. Remember to smile and treat each person with pity and respect. Good deeds are contagious(传染的), and your positive attitude may spread among others.
4). Take it one day at a time.
Being positive isn't an instant thing. It's a steady effort that we follow every hour of every day. Instead, focus on living at the moment and doing what you can to make each moment better.
A.Eat healthy and stay fit.
B.Take your lunch breaks outside.
C.Don't worry about what the future may bring.
D.Gratefulness helps you appreciate life in bad times.
E.Good feelings come from acts of kindness and selflessness.
F.Take a few minutes to feel sad and accept what happened.
G.Even going outside for a walk and enjoying the sunshine improves your mood.

【答案】F;A;G;E;C
【解析】文章向我们介绍保持乐观的四个简单方法。

(1)考查对上下文语境的理解。空前句意:当这些负面的时刻控制你的生活时,你的情感平衡会处在危险中。空后句意:但是,不要让这种难过再次出现。故这里F(花几分钟感到难过并接受已经发生的事。)承上启下,故选F。

(2)考查段落大意的概括。这里第2空是本文给出的保持乐观的第二个方法。根据下文介绍的内容:你直接放入身体的东西会影响你对外部的感觉。吃水果蔬菜这样好的健康的食物,并且限制零食。锻炼同等重要。故本段讲述的是健康饮食,故选A项(健康饮食,保持健康。)

(3)考查对上下文语境的理解。空前句意:每个星期花几天,每天至少半个小时运动,试着坚持。故这里G(甚至户外散步以及享受阳光都会改善你的情绪。)承接上文内容,故选G。

(4)考查对上下文语境的理解。本段的建议是:对他人友好。空后句意:让他人的生活更加明亮不仅能让他人面带微笑,你也是一样。这里E(好的情感来源于善良无私的行为。)符合上下文,故选E。

(5)考查对上下文语境的理解。本段给的保持乐观的建议是:每天都要坚持不懈。空前句意:乐观不是一瞬间的事情。它是我们每时每刻的持续努力。空后句意:相反的,应该活在当下,做你能做的事情让每一刻都更美好。故这里C(不要担心将来会怎样。)承上启下,故选C。

【题目】Most people realize that fast food isn't the healthiest or besttasting cuisine(菜肴). It is, however, expected to be fast.

Many chains like McDonald's have struggled with slower food delivery in recent years, because there are more items on the menu. But the world's largest restaurant chain, which serves 68 million customers daily in 119 countries, is trying to change that.

For several months, McDonald's has been testing what's called the “justforyou experience”. In 200 U S restaurants (and more than 2,000 across the globe), customers are able to order directly from a selfserve kiosk(售货亭), after which an employee brings the meal directly to the table.

McDonald's chief executive Steve Easterbrook, speaking at a McDonald's in New York's Tribeca neighbourhood on Thursday, said the company has long expected customers to adapt to its business model of ordering at the counter and then waiting to collect their own food. Now, he said, “We're adapting our business around customers.”

It showed that “test runs at more than 500 restaurants…showed an increase in foot traffic and contributed to a midsingledigit percentage increase in restaurant sales, lifting the 5 to 6 average check by 1, on average.” Customer satisfaction scores also increased, “because families, in particular, appreciate having their food brought to them.”The company also announced the beginning of a new mobile orderandpay app, which would allow customers to order and pay for food from their smart phones.

Mike, a common customer, said, “As a father of two small children, I'm every fastfood chain's target customer. My wife and I try to avoid McDonald's when possible, but like many parents we end up going. I've used the selfserve kiosks and like them a lot: they're easy to use, reduce the pressure of making a choice with impatient customers behind you, and make a big difference in delivery time. I just hope they don't start expecting me to tip.”

1Why do many chains have a slower food delivery in the past several years?

A. Because they have struggled many expectations.

B. Because they have more dishes to serve people.

C. Because they have the world's largest restaurant chains.

D. Because sometimes they have too many customers.

2How do customers get their food after ordering food selfserve kiosks?

A. By testing McDonald's machine.

B. By taking food by themselves.

C. By letting waiters bring food for them.

D. By letting employees serve for them.

3What's the result of trying “justforyou experience”?

A. It is a great success.

B. It caused traffic jam.

C. It's well received only by app users.

D. It still needs to be observed.

4What can we infer from what Mike said?

A. His family don't like McDonald's.

B. He's willing to give tips for good service.

C. Selfserve kiosks are a good choice.

D. It's hard for him to spend the delivery time.

How did people in ancient China change their luck? Most of them would take the exam, Keju, which began during the Sui Dynasty and lasted for 1,300 years before it was ended in the Qing Dynasty.

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
When US musician Bob Dylan was announced as the winner of this year's Nobel Prize for literature last month, many people took to social media to suggest that Leonard Cohen was the only other living songwriter who deserved(值得)the honor.
Sadly, on Nov 7, the deep-voiced Canadian artist died at the age of 82.
Many tributes(称赞)were written for Cohen, who had just released his 14th album, You Want It Darker, on Oct 21st. “Leonard Cohen is as important today as he was in the 1960s,” Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on in a statement. “ His ability to describe human emotion made him one of the most influential and lasting musicians ever.”
Cohen's most famous song, Hallenlujah, in which he compared physical love to a need for spiritual connection, has been recorded hundreds of times by different musician since it was first released in 1984.
And Cohen's song Bird on a Wire(1969) could be considered a perfect epitaph(墓志铭)that he wrote for himself. As the song's first line goes, “Like a bird on a wire, like a drunk in midnight choir(合唱团), I have tired in my way to be free.”
“Cohen writes words that explain what it means to be human. I've read poetry that has as much beauty as Cohen's work, but in the world of music, Cohen is a rarity,” US singer Jennifer Warnes told Austin American-Statesman newspaper. ‘He describes things that go on inside a heart and what it feels like to be here.”
Along with his spirituality, Cohen's dry, deep voice also helped his popularity. In 2006 he spoke with the NPR radio station about how he got his interesting voice—apparently it was “500 tons of whiskey and a million cigarettes.”
But he never forgot to work on the instruments that made up his songs, even though he was most famous for his lyrics (歌词)and voice.
“There is no difference between a poem and a song,” Cohen said in 1969 interview with the New York Times newspaper. “Some were songs first and some were poems first and some were written at the same time. All of my writing has guitars behind it, even the novels.”
“When people talk about Cohen, they fail to mention the melodies(旋律), which to me, along with his lyrics, are his greatest genius,” Bob Dylan told the New York magazine.” They give a lift to every one of his songs. As far a I know, no one comes close to this in modern music.”
(1)What do Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan have in common?
A.They have both written beautiful lyrics.
B.They have both achieved outstanding things in literature
C.They both came from the same country
D.They were both considered the possible winners of Nobel Prize in literature.
(2)People often speak highly of Cohen for many things except for_____.
A.his voice
B.his melodies
C.his lyrics
D.his influence
(3)What can be inferred from the article?
A.Hallenlujah is the most performed song in the world
B.Bird on a Wire was written to describe Cohen's personality
C.Bob Dylan took inspiration from Cohen's work
D.Cohen said his unhealthy habits contributed to his unique voice.
(4)Which of the following words best describe Cohen?
A.Humorous and optimistic
B.Sensitive(敏感的)and moody
C.Insightful(深刻的)and talented
D.Expressive and rebellious(叛逆的)
