I'll do it tomorrow，I swear!
Procrastination is the thief of time and a lot of students suffer from it．（71）CHowever，they only stare into space，eat snacks，surf the Internet，watch videos and look at their pretty peers sitting around them who，most likely，are doing nothing either．
According to a recent report by the BBC，95percent of us procrastinate at some point and 20percent of the world's population are chronic procrastinators，complicating their lives with their constant delaying of tasks．
The figures are discouraging．（72）D Just look at Hamlet，who is perhaps the world's most famous procrastinator．He is also a university student，and his indecision leads to tragedy（悲剧）in the biggest way．
Procrastinators like to find excuses to justify their behavior，but BBC columnist Rowan Pelling says they are all wrong．
（73）E Pelling says this is nonsense，as work done at the last minute is more likely to have mistakes than work done on time．She says the behavior of procrastinators often makes them feel nervous and ashamed，inconveniences others，and annoys loved ones．
Pelling also points out that procrastination feels particularly delinquent（不良倾向的） in a society that views swift action as praiseworthy，and，at times，even as morally good．
（74）FPiers Steel，a Canadian social scientist and author of The Procrastination Equation，believes humankind is"designed"to procrastinate．Nevertheless，he suggests a couple of good ways to get through the task at hand．（75）ABreak the task down into small pieces and work your way through them methodically．The second is ingenious：Give a trusted friend a sum of money and tell them that if you don't complete the task you have undertaken by a specific time，they can keep it or donate it to a cause you hate．

A．The first one is obvious．
B．But this does nothing to break the spell．
C．They could spend whole days in the library doing nothing useful．
D．Procrastinators are less wealthy，less healthy and less happy than those who don't delay．
E．Many procrastinators tell themselves they are perfectionists who work best under pressure．
F．Fortunately，social scientists have thrown their weight behind efforts to understand this behavioral weakness and offer strategies to control it．
G．Paralyzed by their habit to procrastinate，they write micro blogs about their fears，asking their online friends if they sometimes have the same issue．

10．I know just how you feel
Do you feel sad？Happy？Angry？You may think that the way you show these emotions is unique．Well，think again．Even the expression of the most personal feelings can be classified，according to Mind Reading，a DVD exhibiting every possible human emotion．（71）A
In the mid1800s，Darwin divided the emotions into six types-anger，fear，sadness，disgust，surprise and enjoyment．More complex expressions of emotion were probably learned and therefore more specific to each culture．But now it is believed that many more facial expressions are shared worldwide．（72）F The Mind Reading DVD is a systematic visual record of these expressions．
The project was designed by a Cambridge professor．His research team first had to define an"emotion"．（73）D Using this definition，412emotion terms were identified and discussed，from"afraid"to"wanting"．
Then each expression is acted out by six different actors．"It was really clear when the actors had got it right，"says Cathy Collis，who directed the DVD．"Although they were given some direction，the actors were not told which facial muscles they should move．（74）G"
Someone who has tried to set such rules is the American，Professor Paul Ekman，who built database of how the face moves for every emotion．The face can make 43distinct muscle movements．Ekman has also found that it may not be possible for people to reproduce them artificially．The most difficult expression to reproduce is the smile．It isn't only about stretching the lips，but tightening the tiny muscles around the eye．（75）C If we learnt to recognize whether someone was using their eye muscle when they smiled，we would be able to distinguish true enjoyment from false．

A．It shows 412distinct ways we feel．
B．These can be combined into more than 10，000facial shapes．
C．These particular muscles are difficult to control，and few people can do it．
D．They decided that it was a mental state that could be introduced by"I feel"or"he looks"or"she sounds"．
E．He said the expression of these feelings was universal and recognizable by anyone，from any culture．
F．It is as if they are programmed into the brains of"normal humans"wherever they are and whatever their races．
G．We thought of trying to describe each emotion，but it would have been almost impossible to make clear rules for this．

9．I've been writing for most of my life．The book Writing Without Teachers introduced me to one distinction and one practice that has helped my writing processes greatly．
（71）D Though you need to employ both while you are writing to get to a finished result，they cannot work in parallel no matter how much you might like to think so or even try to do so．
Trying to criticize（批评） writing on the fly is possibly the single greatest barrier to writing that most of us often come across．If you are listening to that 5th grade English teacher correct your grammar mistakes while you are trying to seize upon a fleeting （稍纵即逝的） thought，the thought will die．If you catch the fleeting thought and simply share it with the world just in raw form，no one is likely to understand it．（72）G
The practice that can help you to get rid of your bad habits of trying to edit as you write is what Elbow calls"free writing．"In free writing，the objective is to get words down on paper non-stop，usually for 15-20minutes．No stopping，no going back，no correcting，no deleting．（73）B As the words begin to flow，the ideas will come from the shadows wildly and you just let themselves be noted down on your paper or your screen．
（74）F Most likely，you will believe that this will take more time than you actually have and you will end up staring blankly at the pages as the deadline draws near．Instead of staring at a blank，start filling it with words no matter how bad they are．Halfway through your available time，stop and rework your raw writing into something closer to finished product．（75）E．

A．Try to find faults in the raw writing．
B．The goal is to get the words flowing．
C．Write down the words coming to your mind with caution．
D．The distinction is between the creative mind and the critical mind．
E．Move back and forth and the final result will most likely be far better．
F．Now you have raw materials that you can begin to work with the critical mind．
G．You must learn to create first and then criticize if you want to make writing the tool for thinking．

8．We all have our favourite teachers-those who treat us equally．But what about those teachers we don't know as well （ for even don't like much ）？
You can do lots of things to get a relation with your teacher．First，do the following：（36）B Complete all homework on time．Be attentive，be respectful，and ask questions．（37）F Obviously，your teachers are really interested in their subjects or they wouldn't have decided to teach them!Showing the teacher that you care，even if you're not good at math or fluent-in French-send the  message that you are a dedicated student．
You can also schedule a private meeting during a teacher's free period．（38）E You can ask  questions，inquire about a career in the subject，or talk about your progress in class．You may be surprised to learn that your teacher is a bit more relaxed one on one than when lecturing in front of  the whole class．
However，here are some things to avoid when trying to establish a relationship with your teacher：
1．（39）C  Teachers sense when your only motivation is to get special treatment，a college reference，or a job suggestion．
2．Trying to be teachers'pet．You just attract the teachers'attention on purpose and your classmates may start to hate you．
3．（40A It's OK to offer a small sign of thanks to teachers if they've been helpful to you．But a teacher is usually not allowed to accept the wrong message，and a teacher is usually not allowed to accept anything expensive．

A．Giving expensive gifts．
B．Show up for class on time．
C．Not being sincere．
D．Find the practical value in classes．
E．Use this time to get extra help．
F．Show an interest in the subject．
G．Get along better with your teachers．

5．The disease was terrible and it made Jack's life difficult，one problem following_________．（　　）

4．首先，请阅读下列的应用文：
A．Chapter 1：…you probably have an image in your mind of what the"perfect'or"ideal"body looks like．Try not to press yourself to look that way．Each person is born with genes that control the shape of his/her body．Everyone is different．It's important to be comfortable with the body you have．
B．Chapter 2：…You use energy for everything you do．That energy comes from the food you eat．Too much food or too little regular exercise causes your body to store the extra energy in fat cells．But，if you exercise regularly and eat a healthy diet，you'll feel healthier and stronger not to mention look great．
C．Chapter 3：…Your body runs best on foods high in carbohydrates and low in fat and sugar．Eating a healthy diet will provide your body with everything it needs to run smoothly．Your body breaks down proteins into amino acids（氨基酸），so you don't need to take in the amino acids separately．
D．Chapter 4：…Exercise does more than just burn calories．For instance，regular exercise makes your muscles strong and flexible，and increases the amount of muscle you have．It also makes your heart stronger and lowers your blood pressure； …
E．Chapter 5：…Always warm up and stretch for 5-10minutes before you do strength or endurance exercises．Afterwards，take 10minutes to cool down．Your heart should beat normally when you stop．Exercising with a group may help you to exercise regularly．
F．Chapter 6：…Supplementation of a mixture of essential amino acids will increase protein synthesis （蛋白质综合体）．While supplementing with either carbohydrate or amino acids may limit muscle damage and stimulate （激励） protein synthesis，there is increasing evidence that the combination can have an addictive effect．
