Habits, whether good or bad, are gradually formed. When a person does a certain thing again, he is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly, then a habit is formed. Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to get rid of. It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits. Children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long as they live. Older persons also form bad habits lasting as long as they live, and sometimes become ruined by them.

There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help. Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and so on.

Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, lying, stealing and so on.These are all easily formed habits.Unfortunately older persons often form habits which could have been avoided .

We should keep away from all these bad habits, and try to form such habits as will be good for ourselves and others.

1.________ are formed little by little.

A. Good habits

B. Bad habits

C. Both good habits and bad habits

D. Either good habits or bad habits

2.The underlined word "them" in the first paragraph refers to ________.

A. bad habits

B. good habits

C. children

D. other persons.

3.Why should we pay much attention to the formation of habits?

A. Because habits are of great help to every one of us.

B. Because a man can never get rid of a habit.

C. Because it's hard and sometimes even impossible to throw away bad habits.

D. Because we are forced to do them again and again.

4.According to the passage, early rising ________.

A. has something to do with success

B. is an easily formed habit

C. is such a habit as should have been avoided

D. is such a habit as will be kept

Greenspace facilities (设施) are contributing to an important degree to the quality of the city environment. Fortunately it is no longer necessary that every lecture or every book about this subject has to start with the proof of this idea. At present it is generally accepted, although more as a self-proved statement than on the base of a closely reasoned scientific proof. Recognizing the importance of greenspaces in the city environment is a first step on the right way, this does not mean, however, that enough details are known about the functions of greenspace in towns and about the way in which people are using these spaces. As to this subject I shall within the scope (范围) of this lecture, enter into one aspect only, namely the recreative function of greenspace facilities.

The theoretical separation of living, working, traffic and recreation (娱乐) which for many years has been used in town and country planning, has in my opinion resulted in more attention for forms of recreation far from home, while there was relatively little attention for improvement of recreative possibilities in the direct neighborhood of the home. We have come to the conclusion that this is not right, because an important part of the time which we do not pass in sleeping or working, is used for activities at and around home. So it is obvious that recreation in the open air has to begin at the street door of the house. The city environment has to offer as many recreation activities as possible, and the design of these has to be such that more required activities can also have recreative aspect.

The very best standard of living is nothing if it is not possible to take a pleasant walk in the district, if the children cannot be allowed to play in the streets because the risks of traffic are too great, if during shopping you can nowhere find a spot for enjoying for a moment the nice weather, in short, if you only feel yourself at home after the street door of your house is closed after you.

A. to reduce the number of recreative activities

I woke up late and had breakfast in a hurry. I had never been late and didn’t want my boss to be unsatisfied. However, it seemed that day wasn’t a lucky one for me from the very second I left my flat. The moment I wanted to rush downstairs one of my stiletto heels (细高跟) broke. I had to return to change my red shoes. I also had to change my purse and other little things that I had tried to match with the shoes. I was sure I would be late for work.

On my way to work I had to wait for over half an hour because of an accident. I had no choice but to wait. I phoned my boss and he told me that it was no problem, but he needed me for the meeting with the Japanese clients (客户) that morning.

Finally, I arrived at the office one hour later. I had to keep calm and be fresh for the meeting to make the clients sure that our plan was the best for their future commercial (商业的) project. However, I left the plan I had made the night before at home and was going to present (介绍) it to the clients. I was about to get angry when I realized that I had a draft (草稿) of it in my office. At last, the presentation came to an end and it turned out to be a success. But I have to say that I had a terrible day, full of incidents (事件).

My friend had mentioned the other day that her father had a lot of children's toys he was looking to give away.She knew I have a three-year-old daughter so she thought of me first.I told her I would love it if I could get some nice things for my daughter,which I wouldn't otherwise have been able to afford.

When I met her father,he began to explain he was too poor once and that he would hate to throw away things that can be very useful.

Before he showed me what he was giving away,I thought the toys would be mostly lego's(乐高积木) or things like that.When he was showing me around I saw a bed,a slide,a kitchen set and many other things that just blew my mind.He told me to write a list of everything my daughter could use and as my eyes were wide,he told me not to feel guilty.He said I was helping him by getting rid of the stuff.

As I was looking around I did feel guilty,but I tried to remain more grateful than guilty.Every time I tried to thank him for giving me and my daughter all this wonderful stuff he would thank me right back.I wanted to believe that he was just thanking me so that I wouldn't feel so guilty but in reality I believe that he was as grateful as I was that these toys would be put to good use.

In the eyes of charity,it makes sense to feel grateful,but guilt is just as normal.I know that we could have lived without a slide,which is why I do feel guilty,but I am grateful all the same because my daughter really does enjoy all these nice things!
