“Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” ---Lao Tzu

If you are in a city where everyone rushes, realize that you don’t have to be like everyone else. You can be different. You can walk instead of driving in rush hour traffic. You can be on your iPhone or Blackberry less, and disconnected sometimes. Your environment doesn’t control your life---you do. I’m not going to tell you how to give you a step-by-step guide to moving slower.    1   

1. Do less.

Cut back on your projects, on your task list, on how much you try to do each day. Focus not on quantity but on quality.    2    Save smaller, routine tasks for later in the day, but give yourself time to focus.

2. Have fewer meetings.

3    And they eat into your day, forcing you to squeeze the things you really need to do into small windows, and making you rush.

3.    4   

When you do the important things with focus, without rush, there will be things that get pushed back, and that don’t get done. And you need to ask yourself: how necessary are these things? What would happen if I stopped doing them?

4. Practice mindfulness.

Simply learn to live in the present, rather than things so much about future or the past. When you eat, fully appreciate your food. When you are with someone, be with them fully. When you are walking, appreciate your surroundings, no matter where you are.

Try these things out. Life is better when unrushed.

     5    

A.Start to put off or cancel the unnecessary.

B.Meetings are usually a “big waste of time”.

C.The world likely won’t end if you don’t pass one of the examinations.

D.But here are some things to consider and perhaps adopt, if they work for your life.

E. Remember the quote: if nature can get everything done without rushing, so can you.

F. Pick 2—3 important things---or even just one important thing---and work on those first.

G. Give yourself more time to get ready and get there.

 

With Captain Cash’s help, we’ve put together the BIGGEST and BEST money-saving guide EVER - so what are you waiting for? Start saving NOW! The first step is to sign up to Captain Cash’s fantastic new website.

▲ Captain’s saving tip on car insurance

MAKE sure you give an accurate figure for your annual mileage when you get a quote - if you overestimate, your premium(保费)will rise.

▲ Captain’s saving tip on home insurance

Don’t overinsure your home - by sticking to the rebuild cost (the amount that really matters), you're covered if there’s a disaster. When in doubt seek independent advice.

Plus, pay your insurance policy in one hit, if you can. Many insurance companies charge higher interest rates when you pay in monthly installments.

▲ Captain’s saving tip on entertainment

BUY the latest CDs online from HMV via Captain Cash for great price deals. For instance, The Friends 15th Anniversary Complete Collection: 40 DVD box set is just £69.99 with free UK delivery - saving £30 on the RRP (Recommended Retail Price).

▲ Captain’s saving tip on utility bills

DON’T be loyal to expensive suppliers - always check out the best deals. Getting gas and electricity from the same company and paying by direct debit instead of cash or cheque also lowers the annual cost of your bills. You can also shave money from bills by turning appliances off, rather than leaving them on standby, and by turning the heating down by a degree or two.

We all accept that sports should stress skill over luck,and fairness over privilege(特权).

They should be accessible to many and fun to watch.In the end,a sport,s champion should re-

present shared values and served as a role model.

But with today,s advances in technology,the power of sports equipment makers offers great

opportunity for the athletes who have access to the latest technology.

In 2008,108 world records were broken in the sport of swimming.The average number of

world records set in swimming in all past Olympic years is about 22.The average number of

world records set in a non-Olympic year is about 5.Now there are no“old”world records.

Suit technology has been the most widely recognized difference.The sharkskin suit and the

“paper”suits were all made public by suit manufactures before the Olympic.

As records continue to be broken,the Internet message boards for the swimming community

have taken a darker view of suit technology.“Time is meaningless”is one quote.I tend to agree.Some of the times I see being posted today are simply legends(传奇).

Am I against suit technology?Not really.But 2008 marked an unbelievable change in the

sport of swimming.People are saying,“Bigger,faster,stronger at any cost!”,wanting no limits on technology,either suits or drugs.I am not one of those people.

I am a guy that recognized the sport of swimming being as simple as man vs.water.It used

to be the swimmer in the suit,not the suit on the swimmer.How times have changed.

53.According to the first paragraph,it is a common belief that________.

A.only a few people have chances to take part in sports

B.the latest suit technology should not be used in sports

C.sports should be interesting for people to watch

D.luck plays an important role in Olympic Games

54.It can be learned from the passage that_______.

A.the author is against the latest technology in sports

B.the athletes have become more skilled than before

C.some records are hard to break without technology

D.advanced suits and drugs can be used in Olympics

55.What does“Time is meaningless”mean in the swimming community?

A.Breaking records in swimming is too easy for most athelets.

B.It,s technology rather than skill that counts in some records.

C.Many athletes break records by luck and taking drugs.

D.Some rules aren,t obeyed when Olympic records are broken.

56.What,s the author,s opinion of the present sports?

A.Latest technology should be encouraged in compitition among athelets.

B.Time should be measured in a different way in modern Olympic Games.

C.All of the athletes should wear the same suits to ensure fairness.

A study of a university in Shanghai had found that many of the students there are using a quote(引语)from the Italian poet Dante as a kind of motto. The study of Fudan University, one of China’s top universities, of 489 students, found that 82 had chosen Dante’s “Follow your own path and don’t worry about what others say” as their motto, out of 278 people who said they had a motto. This was followed by “Believe yourself” and “Self-improvement without stop.”

Students also expressed a common hope for greater understanding and care and said they were always ready to give a hand to those in need. Some researchers think that mottoes can play an important part in children’s growth and they say that a good motto can help children develop a better character.
