Life is the greatest teacher

There always comes a moment when I wonder where I will end up and this moment always serves as a strong motivation for me to learn a life lesson. I've learned a great many things, but these are the lessons that I wish I'd learned earlier:

61. _________

There was a time when everyone's opinion was mine as well. Whatever preferences I formerly held were dashed in the face of another's. This most likely came from a need to please others. Remember that your opinion matters just as much as the next guy's, whether they make more money than you or are less popular than you. Everyone's opinion holds the same weight.

62. _________

Drama, chaos, and emotional unrest — these were what took up most of my time as a teenager. If I had heard someone said bad things behind my back, I'd be angry. Go crazy. Looking back on those tantrums(发怒) now, I'm not too surprised. After all, when you have little self control, anything is possible. The lessons here is, remain aware of how you react.

63. _________

Will one small quarrel among friends decide the fate of the entire universe? In my world it felt like it. I just wanted so much to be right and for them so much to be wrong. But in the end, it only resulted in me wasting my time and in the other person storming off in frustration. Is there really a point to arguing? Unless it's absolutely necessary, I've learned that it's better to hold your breath on things you can't control at all. Arguing to change someone's mind is one of them.

64. _________

I'm not saying every parent wants what's best for you (there are outliers), but in general, parents do what they do for you in your best interest. My parents used to make me do the dishes, cook dinner, sweep the floors, mow the lawn, take out the garbage… the list goes on and on. And at every turn, I'd whine and complain. I'd eventually end up doing it. Now, I honestly see the value in having learned those skills. I can efficiently cook and clean up after myself.

65. _________

Whenever I’d lose a friend, get an awful grade, or disappoint my parents, I stewed in my own muck. Waiting for the bad moments to go away seemed to be the only solution. Fortunately, I know now that you don’t have to be stuck in bad situations. You can go out and create better ones. It all depends on perspective; on how you see the situation. Viewing everything as a learning experience makes life more pleasurable, even during the hard times. You aren't stuck. You can move on.

I'm glad to have learned these lessons the way I did. Each experience helped shape me to become a better person. I don't know if any young people are reading this, but if they are, I'd like to say this: “Listen to life and its experiences. Everyone goes through mostly the same things.”

请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出符合各段意思的小标题,并在答题纸上将相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。

B.Predict how long tasks will take

C.Keep records of where your time is going

D.Handle things in order of importance

E.Leam to reject others’ demands

F.analyze the distribution of your time

How to Manage Your Time Effectively

It has been said that “Time is Money” – but I disagree. Isn’t Time really LIFE? At the end of your  life, can you even mangine saying to yourself, “I wish I’d made more money.” It’s more likely you’d be thinking “I wish I’d had more TIME – time to enjoy my life more.” Here are my favorite strategies for managing that most precious of all resources – TIME.

61.           

You can’t find something you’ve lost when you don’t know where you might have lost it in the first place. So keep track of the exact time you begin and end an activity, and write down a few words to describe the activity. This requires you to be really honest with yourself and track your time – so if you spent 23 minutes chatting with coworkers over coffee – write it down EXACTLY!

62.       

Review your time logs(记录)and start to classify the tasks into categories(范畴). You will create these categories yourself, and you and as brief as possible. Some examples might be: Administration, Business Development, Sales & Marketing, Com[uter, etc. You will then sum up how much time you spent doing tasks or activities for each category, in the exact number of minutes. You might also do a little math, to figure the percentage of time each category takes out of each day.

63.             

If you were honest and diligent, chances are that you had suddenly awakened after you reviewed your daily time logs. You no doubt can see where the time is wasted – and now you’re ready to make a better schedule. Make the best of your time by considering when you’re at your best for certain tasks, by grouping similar tasks together for greater efficiency, and by setting aside certain time for doing uninterrupted work. Think where different tasks can best fit into your day. Then actually write this routine down and post it where you’re see it every day.

64.           

You can create your own easy tools to do this. On oen sheet of paper, create 5 sections: High Priorities(优先), Secondary Priorities, People to Contact, Telephone calls, and Schedule. You can fill this out cach day, first thing in the morning. Each day, ask yourself: “If nothing else gets done today, what are the one or two items that absolutely. MIST be done?” You should also regularly go back to the time logging exercise, so you can determine if you are slipping back into those old had habits and take immediate steps to get back on track.

65.          

More often than not, we take on more than we should because we don’t want to hurt someone else’s feelings. When we burden ourselves too much, we are not only creating unnecessary stress in our lives, but we are also creating potential situations where we cannot deliever what we’ve promised. We also don’t realize that when we can’t deliever what we’re promised, we can unintentionally cause more pain than if we’d had turned that down in the first place, Remember, you’re not doing any favors for yourself or anyone else by taking on more than you can reasonably deliver.

阅读短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

  In cities with rent control , the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord (房东) can charge for an apartment.Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartments.Their rent cannot increase; therefore , they are not in danger of losing their homes.However , the critics say that after a long time , rent control may have negative (负面的) effects.Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits.Therefore , they invest (投资) in other businesses where they can increase their profits.They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent – controlled.As a result , new apartments are not built.Many people who need apartments cannot find any.According to the critics , the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.

  Some theorists argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way.The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers.The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled , low – paying jobs.However , if the minimum is high , employers may hire fewer workers.They will replace workers with machinery.Therefore , other things being equal , the number of workers that employers want decreases.Thus , critics hold the opinion that an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment.Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.

  Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity (尊严).Because of the law , workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum.Furthermore , employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.

  Economic (经济的) theory predicts the results of economic decisions such as decisions about farm production , rent control , and the minimum wage.The predictions may be correct only if“other things are equal”.Economists do not agree on some of the predictions.They also do not agree on the value of different decisions.Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it.Economists do agree , however , that there are no simple answers to economic questions.

(1)

There is the possibility that setting maximum rent may ________.

[  ]

A.

increase the profits of landlords

encourage landlords to invest in building apartment

[  ]

A.

will always benefit those who rent apartments

B.

is unnecessary

C.

will bring negative effects in the long run

D.

is necessary under all circumstances

(3)

The problem of unemployment will arise if ________.

[  ]

A.

the minimum wage is set too high

B.

the minimum wage is set too low

C.

the workers are unskilled

D.

the maximum wage is set

(4)

The passage tells us about ________.

[  ]

A.

the relationship between supply and demand

B.

the possible results of government controls

C.
