18．As the new semester begins，millions of college students across the country are trying hard to remember how best to write a paper or，more likely，how best to delay that paper．
Procrastination is the thief of time and a lot of students suffer from it．They can spend whole days in the library doing nothing but staring into space，eating snacks，surfing the Internet，watching videos and looking at other students sitting around them，who，most likely，are doing nothing either．
Paralyzed （使失去活力） by their habit to procrastinate，they write micro blogs about their fears，asking their online friends if they sometimes have the same issue．But this does nothing to break the spell （魔咒）．
According to a recent report，95percent of us procrastinate at some point and 20percent of the world's population are always procrastinating．The figures are disappointing．Procrastinators are less wealthy，less healthy and less happy than those who don't delay．Procrastinators like to find excuses to justify their behavior，but BBC columnist Rowan Pelling says they are all wrong．
Many procrastinators tell themselves they are perfectionists who work best under pressure．Pelling says this is nonsense，as work done at the last minute is more likely to have mistakes than work done on time．The behavior of procrastinators often makes them feel ashamed，inconveniences others and annoys loved ones．
Pelling also points out that procrastination feels particularly delinquent （过失的）in a society that thinks of speedy action as admirable，and，at times，even as a moral good．
Fortunately，social scientists have thrown their weight behind efforts to understand this behavioral mistake and offer strategies to control it．Piers Steel，a Canadian social scientist and author of The Procrastination Equation，believes human is"designed"to procrastinate．Nevertheless，he suggests a couple of good ways to get through the task at hand．

2．There is no second chance…there is no chance of making mistakes．"
 That's why Dr．Omer Mei-Dan and others who enjoyed base-jumping and wingsuit（翼装） flying were sad but not surprised by the recent deaths of three extreme sports enthusiasts．
Mark Sutton，the English parachutist（跳伞者），died on August 14 in Switzerland when he flew into a rocky ridge（山脊） in a wingsuit．Not even a week afterward，Mario Richard，a Canadian base-jumper，died in Italy during a wingsuit flight，when he"apparently failed to clear a rock by three meters．"And most recently，Hungarian wingsuit flyer Victor Kovats died in Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park in Zhangjiajie on Oct.9 during a practice flight ahead of the World Championships．
According to Mei-Dan，six to seven percent of the 3，000 or so base-jumpers who use wingsuits or parachutes die each year-a huge number when you consider the most dangerous job in America，logging which has an annual death rate well under one percent of the workers．
Base-jumpers and wingsuit flyers are experienced．They have hundreds of practice before trying to fly from buildings，cliffs and towers．The same goes for those who drop from helicopters above mountains and valleys and then use their wingsuits to try to whiz by（飞速掠过） as close as possible to the rocks and ridges below．
Among the dangers，said Mei-Dan，is the temptation to"push the envelope"：To try to get close to a rock wall，for example，than anyone else．"When you push the envelope and you can not have any error at all，or you have to pay for it with your life．"
So why do it？The experience of flying toward the ground in a wingsuit is almost indescribable．"It's something that you really have to try to understand-what type of feeling you get when you're free falling next to a cliff，"Mei-Dan said．
41．What's the main idea of the first paragraph？D
A．Trying wingsuit flying once is enough．
B．Wingsuit flying is always easy to do．
C．Wingsuit flying lasts only a short time．
D．Even a single mistake in wingsuit flying is disastrous．
42．How did other flyers react to the recent deaths of their fellows？D
A．They thought the deaths could have been avoided．
B．They felt the need of reconsidering the safety of wingsuit flying．
C．They were sad and were in deep sorrow．
D．They felt sad but did not find the deaths surprising．
43．What does the third paragraph tell us？A
A．How the three wingsuit flyers died
B．Why wingsuit flying is so dangerous．
C．Where wingsuit flying is most dangerous
D．What a wingsuit flyer's career is like．
44．What does the underlined phrase"push the envelope"mean？D
A．To attempt to push further in a wingsuit．
B．To risk moving the envelope away．
C．To be determined to give up on oneself．
D．To try to go beyond the normal limits of something．
45．The extreme sports enthusiasts like wingsuit flying because theyC．
A．want to know what it feels like           
B．wish to describe the experience
C．enjoy the wonderful experience        
D．devote themselves to scientific research．
19．Last spring my husband，Lawrence，and I agreed that it was time for us to move．Although we adoredour home in the northern district of New York，all our children and grandchildren had moved to the West Coast．We needed to be near them．
     But We didn't want to sell our house to just any buyer．We had three requirements in mind．The first was to find someone who loved our place as much as we did-after all，We'd lived there for more than thirty years．The second was to find a buyer who would share our faith and not bargain with us over the price of me home．And lastly，since moving rates dropped in the fall，we didn't want to move until mid-October．
    In this market I found out there was little hope that We'd sell our place，let alone find that perfect buyer，but still，I hoped for all three things．Weeks went by with no takers．Finally our real estate（房地产）agent phoned in August．"I've found someone who's indeed in love with your house．She's made a good offer．"He brought over some papers to sign and I made a note of the woman's name．
     Days later I was looking up a friend's phone number in our church directory（电话薄），running my finger down the long list of members．Suddenly I came across her name．Our buyer!"She loves our home and she's even a member of our church，"I said to Lawrence．"This could be perfect．"
     I practically held my breath for the next few days，the calls going back and forth to our agent．Finally he came by with the papers to sign．Pen in hand，he hesitated．
"This buyer has just one more requirement，"he said．
    Oh，may no change happen，I thought．"What is it？"
"She can't own the house until mid-October．"
"Mid-October？Perfect．"Those words sealed the deal．

41．Why didn't the author and her husband move to West Coast until mid-October．C

20．Everywhere I look outside my home I see people busy on their high-tech devices，while driving，walking，shopping，even sitting in toilets．When connected electronically，they are away from physical reality．
People have been influenced to become technology addicted．One survey reported that"addicted"was the word most commonly used by people to describe their relationship to iPad and similar devices．One study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep，cigarettes and alcohol．
The main goal of technology companies is to get people to spend more money and time on their products，not to actually improve our quality of life．They have successfully created a cultural disease．Consumers willingly give up their freedom，money and time to catch up on the latest information，to keep pace with their peers or to appear modern．
I see people trapped in a pathological（病态的）relationship with time-sucking technology，where they serve technology more than technology serves them．I call this technology servitude．I am referring to a loss of personal freedom and independence because of uncontrolled consumption of many kinds of devices that eat up time and money．
What is a healthy use of technology devices？That is the vital question．Who is really in charge of my life？That is what people need to ask themselves if we are to have any chance of breaking up false beliefs about their use of technology．When we can live happily without using so much technology for a day or a week，then we can regain control and personal freedom，become the master of technology and discover what there is to enjoy in life free of technology．Mae West is famous for proclaiming the wisdom that"too much of a good thing is wonderful．"But it's time to discover that it does not work for technology．
Richard Fernandez，an executive coach at Google acknowledged that"we can be swept away by our technologies．"To break the grand digital connection people must consider how life long ago could be fantastic without today's overused technology．

63．The underlined word"allure"in Paragraph 2probably meansB．
A．advantage         B．attraction  
C．adaption          D．attempt
64．From the passage，technology companies aim toA．
A．attract people to buy their products         
B．provide the latest information
C．improve people's quality of life           
D．deal with cultural diseases
65．It can be inferred from this passage that peopleD．
A．consider too much technology wonderful
B．have realized the harm of high-tech devices
C．can regain freedom without high-tech devices
D．may enjoy life better without overused technology
66．What's the author's attitude towards the overusing of high-tech devices？C
A．Neutral．            B．Sceptical．
C．Disapproving．       D．Sympathetic．
