Last Friday we have a discussion about whether it is the only way out for senior students to go to college. Views vary from person to person. The majority of us consider this very necessary to go to college. They think it can be widen their knowledge and improve their qualities. Only in this way can they find better jobs before graduation. Very few students think it no use go to university, because the tuition is too high for their family to afford. What’s more, it’s rather hard for college graduates to seek satisfied jobs. Thirty percents of the students, however, believe “All roads lead Rome.” Therefore, it doesn’t make some difference whether they go to college or not.

In my opinion, we can better themselves through college education so that we can serve society better in the future.

We have a strange and strong belief in the idea of perfection. Driven by our culture, we struggle for an unattainable ideal: If I have the perfect parents, perfect grades, perfect…, then I would be happy. We seek what we can’t have without remembering that we don’t actually need to be perfect. Imperfection allows us to be human.

Parents, teachers and other high-achieving peers will have us believe that we must be perfect if we wish to remain competitive. However, what job or school requires you to develop a cure for some form of cancer by the age of 18? Although these grades would be admirable achievements, are they worth losing sleep over? We feel like we need the perfect grades to get into the perfect college that will provide us with the perfect education necessary to obtain the perfect job. Making use of our thirst for perfection, the whole college and career industries have emerged claiming to help us reach our goals.

Truth is, you only need to be good enough to get into the conversation. It is what you do afterwards that sets you apart. Focus more on your passions. Don’t worry about anything secondary to your passions. You don’t become an expert at anything if you spent your time trying to succeed in everything you do. You only become an expert when you devote your time to that one project that truly brings you joy.

As members of this society, we have a responsibility to be excellent in what we do, not perfect. Although perfection can be a goal, it should not be the only goal. We only have 24 hours in a day and seven days in a week. Thus, we need to plan what we want to do and cut out the activities we cannot do.

With everything, though, make sure you’re doing enough. Pursuing your passions is not enough of a reason to completely give up on everything else. Try as hard as you can and let your future worry about itself. Worry about your task at hand and you will be successful in achieving your dreams. Most of all, remember that you’re going to be okay.

You feel happiest when you create a healthy balance between giving and receiving. If you give and give without making time to fill your own needs, then it's likely you will burn out, or feel upset. When you take and take without giving anything back, you never feel fulfilled, so you are always searching for ways to fill the void in your life.

The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving is to know and then live by your values. I break values up into two groups which I call being values and having values. Your being values are the personalities of the ideal person you would like to be. I suggest to my clients that they choose three being values that they are willing to make a promise to live by. An example of some being values are: kind, loving, generous, peaceful, wise and even powerful. By acting on these values you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by being a positive role model. Mastering being these personalities becomes your life purpose.

Your having values are the feelings you need to create in order to be happy. These could be companionship, achievement, support, being valued or financial security. This is what you receive. You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions in your life.

When you make a promise to live by your being values, it becomes easier to make conscious (慎重的) choices rather than reactionary (反动的) ones. If your usual pattern is to talk about your problems, you could choose to think and act like a calm person. A calm person might go for a walk, or set a time limit before responding. If your usual pattern is to worry, you could choose to act like a responsible or wise person. In other words, you would act like the person you choose to be—this is the key to personal power.

When you choose to act on your values, you will not only feel good about yourself, but also strengthen your chosen beliefs. Over time, acting in this way changes how you see the world, and in turn the way other people think of you.

D. instruct the readers how to make wise choices

C. a break of continuity

4.What can be inferred from the text?

A. Having values are better than being values.

B. A calm person does not choose to complain.

C. The way other people think of you decides who you are.

D. A responsible person does not care about financial security.

The Israeli farmers who pioneered the revolutionary technology known as drip irrigation weren’t trying to solve one of the world’s most urgent problems．They were just trying to survive．They lived in the desert，and they didn’t have enough water to grow their crops．

In its simplest form，it was little more than a pipe with holes in it．But behind each hole was a hi-tech dripper that let out just the fight amount of water．Snaked along a row of crops so that the holes were positioned directly above the roots，the pipe could direct each precious drop of water directly to the plants，getting a bigger harvest while using a very small amount of the water．

Over time，the farmers improved upon the technology，perfecting the drippers that regulated the flow of water，and connecting the pipelines to computers that could determine exactly how much water each plant needed and when．

If the global population kept growing，the rest of the world would increasingly resemble their little community in the desert．So they began selling their irrigation systems in other parts of the world，eventually expanding to more than 110 countries．Netafirm，the company says it’s lifting people out of poverty and conserving water at a time when the importance of doing so has never been clearer．

The mass adoption of drip irrigation won’t save the world by itself．To avoid the coming catastrophe，nearly everybody will，in some way，have to do more with less，perhaps through accepting and using other new technologies．Otherwise，it’s going to get ugly．

1.Why is drip irrigation called“the revolutionary technology”?

A．It saves the world all by itself．

B．It is controlled by computers．

C．It makes irrigation more effective．

D．It provides deserts with water．

2.What does“one of the world’s most urgent problems”in Paragraph l refer to?

A．Lacking water． B．Lacking labor．

C．Lacking food． D．Lacking energy．

3.How does the drip irrigation help farmers with crops?

A．By drilling holes on the pipes．

B．By regulating water via drippers.

C．By snaking pipes along the crops．

D．By placing pipes just above roots.

4.Which of the following will be the best slogan for Netafirm to sell the irrigation systems?

A．Less water；More harvest．

B．New technology；New world．

C．More grain；Less starvation．

D．Water saving；World surviving．

Veteran（经验丰富的）rock climbers are calling her one of the most promising climbers in the world. She flies up, grasping the rock and heading gracefully for practically non-existent（不存在的）holds. She’s only 14. Ashima Shiraishi, the New York-born teen, has shaken up the climbing world. At 1.55 meters and 45 kilograms, Ashima might not look like the groundbreaking athlete. But she could be, though still young, the first female climber whose accomplishments go beyond gender.

The evidence: At just 14, Ashima has already made history in the sport. She won the American National Youth Bouldering Championship（美国青少年攀岩锦标赛）every year from 2010 to 2014. And last March, the young climber completed the “Open Your Mind Direct” course in Spain. It’s a very big deal because the course, with a hold broken off near the top, is widely considered one of the hardest in the world. Only one woman and a small number of men have ever conquered it. She first learned to climb on rocks in Central Park when she was only six. Her father, who works as a dancer, is her coach. At age nine, Ashima went on a bouldering（攀岩）trip to Texas. Falling brought tears to her eyes, but she didn’t give up. Now, she finds she “couldn’t live without climbing.”

For the past six years, Ashima has been a climbing legend. Her love for the sport has taken her around the world. There have been articles and photo spreads（横贯两版的照片）in newspapers and sports magazines, films, countless online video clips, and an appearance on Time Magazine’s list of America’s most influential teenagers.

“I think people are shocked if I do something they can’t do or because I’m still very young and I’m a girl,” Ashima says. “In most sports, men lead the way. But with climbing, who knows, maybe women will be leading. Doing something that a guy can’t do is pretty special.”

1.As for Ashima Shiraishi, we know ________.

A. she is a great young rock climber

B. she can always find climbing holds that don’t exist

C. she doesn’t look like an athlete at all

D. she is the first female climber in the world

2.Which of the following is true about the course “Open your Mind Direct”?

A. Climbers can take the course only in Spain and America.

B. It is not difficult to finish the course.

C. Climbers have to finish it without any holds at near the top.

D. Not many climbers have done well in it.

3.From the last paragraph, we can infer that ________.

A. she wants to try other events in sports

B. she wonders why people are shocked

C. she expects to do better in rock climbing

D. she decides to try anything men can do

4.The passage mainly focuses on ________.

A. A Rock Star in the Climbing World

B. The First Female Rock Climber

C. A Most Influential Teenager in America

D. The Champion of American National Youth

Ann forgot ______ she had left the car and it took her half an hour to find it in the parking lot.
