Apart from my mother,T ve been very lucky to having had two teachers who have been fundamental influences in my life. The first was my first piano teacher. She really got me interesting in the piano and made a huge impression in me at a very early age. She helped me to learn the basic techniques and develop understanding of the instrument. Then,when I was 16 ,I start studying with my second inspirational teachers. He made me much more confident and encouraged me to enter for competitions even when I felt certain and unconfident about doing this. He had enormous faith in us,and it was this,more than anything else,which inspired me to make music my career.

Recently I read a post that teaches you to double your 41 speed and made the following claim:
“42,the faster you can read,the more productive you can be. 43 you can double your reading speed,you can double your productivity.”
I 44 . I think you should read slower,and focus on doing things slower. It increases your 45 ,which is a 46 definition of productivity from “doing things faster”.
The post's argument was based on the 47 that every project involves a lot of reading — background materials,books,blog posts,and 48 . It didn't mention emails but that's another area where reading faster might seem more productive.
And I 49 that if you can finish that kind of reading,you’ 11 get the project done faster. And then you can 50 the next task and the next and the next!You’re 51！
But productivity isn’t about 52 ,even if we’ve been led to believe it is. It's about being effective. It's about accomplishing things — and that's about doing the most important things,not the 53 things.
When we speed through tasks and projects,we lose perspective. We forget what’s 54 and just try to do things as 55 as possible.
Instead,56 . Think about what’s most important,what needs to be done the most. Then clear everything else out of the way,and 57 . Do that one thing,but do it slowly,and do it very well.
If reading is important,focus on it,and do it slowly. It’11 be much more 58 ,and so will the project. When you absolutely love what you re doing,productivity is a 59 by-product.
So, slow down,don't speed up. Read slower — you’11 read less,60 enjoy it more.

The guy who tried to edit English
The English vocabulary is not only huge,it's also fiill of words that mean practically the same thing. Get,obtain,acquire. Shine,gleam,glow,sparkle. 36
That was the thinking of a British writer named C. K. Ogden,who in the 1930s proposed(提議) a new form of English with a vocabulary of just 850 words. He called the project Basic English. 37
Ogden arrived at his 850-word list through experimentation,rephrasing texts over and over until he was satisfied. The words he finally included were not necessarily the shortest or most concrete. 38 Because any verbal idea could be expressed with a small number of “operators” — words like come,go, get,take,have,make,be, and do — Ogden argued that most verbs were unnecessary. In Basic English, eat is “have a meal." is “go from memory."
Winston Churchill was a fan of the concept as a way to get foreigners to speak English,and he encouraged the BBC to use it. 39 Roosevelt,who expressed mild interest,joked that Churchill's famous speech about offering his “blood,toil,tears,and sweat” to his country wouldn’t have been so exciting if he “had been able to offer the British people only blood,work,eye water,and face water,which I understand is the best that Basic English can do with five famous words."
40 Churchill didn't use it either. When seeking to express ourselves,we don't necessarily need fewer words; we need the right words. So it's to our benefit to have a large supply on hand.
A. Do we really need them all?
B. How many words are there in English?
C. Ogden himself didn't actually use Basic English.
D. Plenty of seemingly basic words did not make the list at all.
E. He also tried to persuade President Franklin Roosevelt to promote it.
F. He believed it would make the language more efficient and easier to learn.
G. Despite attention from world leaders,Basic English never got very far off the drawing board.

In 1769,William Smith was bom in a little town in Oxfordshire,England. He received basic village schooling but mostly he wandered on his uncle's farm collecting the fossils in the rocks of the Cotswold hills. When he grew older Smith learned surveying from books and at 18 he learned from a local surveyor. He then began to teach himself geobgy (地質學) .
When he was 24 ,he went to work for the company that was digging the Somerset Coal Canal in the south of England. This job gave Smith an opportunity to study the fresh strata created by the newly dug canal. He later worked on similar jobs across England all the while studying strata and collecting all the fossils he could find. Smith used mail coaches to travel 10 ,000 miles per year. In 1815 he published the first modem geological map UA Map of the Strata of England and Wales with a Part of Scotland”.
In 1831 when Smith was recognized by the Geological Society of London as the “father of English geology”，it was not only for his maps but also for something even more important. People had hoped strata could be used to calculate geological time,but scientists found the sequences（順序） of rocks sometimes differed from area to area and that no rock type was ever going to become a dependable time marker. Even without the problem of regional differences,rocks present a difficulty as unique time markers. Quartz （石英) is quartz; there's no difference between two-million-year-old quartz and quartz created over 500 million years ago.
As he collected fossils from strata,Smith noticed the fossils told a different story from the rocks. Particularly in the younger strata the rocks were often so similar that he had trouble distinguishing the strata,but he never had trouble telling the fossils apart. Some fossils appear in many strata,but others occur only in a few strata,and a few species had their births and extinctions within one particular stratum. Fossils are thus identifying markers for particular periods in Earth's history.
28. What do we know about young Smith?
A. He spent most of his time reading.
B. He showed much interest in geology.
C. He learned surveying just by himself.
D. He received a very good formal education.
29. Which can be used to describe Smith according to Paragraph 2 ?
A. Adventurous and brave.
B. Talented and productive.
C. Warm-hearted and honest.
D. Hard-working and devoted.
30. The author mentions quartz to show that .
A. no rock can be a reliable time marker
B. no quartz can be found in recent times
G. quartz can fell people rocks,geological time
D. the sequences of rocks differ from area to area
31. Which of the following is Smith's greatest achievement?
A. He drew many maps of strata.
B. He used fossils to identify strata.
C. He built a lot of canals in England.
D. He was the creator of modem geology.

In a wheat field in France,a cat meets a black-bellied hamster(倉鼠) .Too far from her burrow(洞穴） to run for shelter,the wild hamster rises on her back legs to face her enemy. The cat backs away.“They’re afraid of nothing,says Alexandre Lehmamij a biologist who has worked with these wild hamsters for the past 12 years. “They fight against cats and dogs and even farmers. They try to fight against tractors." It's a good thing that the black-bellied hamster won’t go down without a fight. Because in France,where only 500 to 1,000 remain in the wild,they are in a fight for their lives.
At the Stork and Otter Reintroduction Centre in Alsace,Lehmann and his colleagues breed captive hamsters and set the young hamsters free into the wild. But raising black-bellied hamsters isn't exactly easy. Remember,they have attitude. Forget humans 一 they don't even like each other. “You have to make sure the male and female don't kill each other ,” Lehmann says.
Black-bellied hamsters might think of themselves as tough guys. But to a fox or an eagle,theyJ re just a four-legged snack. To survive,hamsters need to be set into a field with lots of leafy hiding places. That's a problem in Alsace,where most farmers plant com. The com hasn't sprouted(發芽） in early spring,when hamsters come out of their burrows from winter hibernation（冬眠）. In the bare fields the hamsters are easy targets for their enemies.
Some older farmers don't want hamsters in their fields because of their reputation as crop-chewing pests. But most are willing to help,especially since the French government will pay farmers to grow early-sprouting crops such as alfalfa and winter wheat and allow hamsters to be set free on their lands. It's a way to protect not just the hamsters,but also other small animals in leafy fields.
24. By saying “It's a good thing that the black-bellied hamster won't go down without a fight” in Paragraph 1 ,the author means “ ”.
A. The black-bellied hamsters are bom fighters
B. The number of hamsters won’t go down quickly quickly
C. It's good for the increase of hamsters’ population
D. It's a quite great experience to see hamsters fighting
25. Why is it hard to raise black-bellied hamsters?
A. They will run into the wild.
B. They are not fond of humans.
C. The male and female won't live in peace.
D. The male can't understand the female's attitude.
26. What problem do hamsters trying to survive in Alsace have?
A. Their burrows are always taken by foxes.
B. They are unable to feed themselves on com.
C. Their winter hibernation is disturbed frequently.
D. They are exposed to their enemies in early spring.
27. Those farmers who are willing to help hamsters will .
A. plant more corn
