Success is so much more than just money or fame.1.If you want to have a successful life, if you want to create a life that makes you feel passionate to be alive, here are the three things you need to focus on.

Believe In Yourself

If you don’t believe in yourself, how do you expect other people to?

If you don’t believe that you can have the life you desire, if you don’t believe that you can achieve all that you are setting out to achieve, it is going to be very difficult to create a successful life. 2.It also helps you to take a leap of faith when it comes to going after what it is that you truly desire.

3.

If your intention is simply rooted in money and fame, chances are you are never going to truly feel successful. The feeling of success that is given through money and fame is only temporary and is not enough to sustain a long-term feeling of fulfillment and happiness.

4.When your intention is to serve your purpose, make a change in the world and express your gifts and talents, you will feel true success and satisfaction no matter what the outcome.

Realize You Are Already Successful

Success is all around you and flows through you and the more you can welcome that into your life, the more you will start to feel it.

Being grateful for the tiniest successes in life will also help you to create more and more success. 5.The truth is that you are already successful and once you realize this, there is no stopping what you can do.

A. Know Your Intention.

B. Realize your dream.

C. When you believe in yourself, it fuels your creativity, your ambitions and your motivation to do things.

D. Success is the result of preparation, hard work and learning from failure.

E. For a truly successful life, your intention has to be rooted in your purpose, in your passions and in what feels good to you.

F. This is a powerful mindset shift and one that will help you to align (使結盟）with your ambitions and dreams.

G. Success is about being able to live a happy and fulfilling life that allows you to be true to who you really are.

　 Maybe ten-year-old Elizabeth put it best when she said to her father，“But，Dad，you can’t be healthy if you’re dead.”

　 Dad，in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run，had forgotten to wear his safety belt—a mistake 75% of US population make every day.The big question is why.

　 There have been many myths about safety belts ever since their first appearance in cars some forty years ago.The following are three of the most common.

　 Myth Number One: It’s best to be “thrown clear” of a serious accident.

　 Truth: Sorry，but any accident serious enough to “throw you clear” is going to be serious enough to give you a very bad landing.And chances are you’ll have traveled through a windshield (擋風玻璃)or door to do it.Studies show that chances of dying after a car accident are twenty-five times in cases where people are “thrown clear”.

　 Myth Number Two: Safety-belts “trap” people in cars that are burning or sinking in water.

　 Truth: Sorry again，but studies show that people knocked unconscious (昏迷) due to not wearing safety belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents.People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situation，not to be trapped in them.

　 Myth Number Three: Safety belts aren’t needed at speeds of less than 30 miles per hour (mph).

　 Truth: When two cars traveling at 30 mph hit each other，an unbelted driver would meet the windshield with a force equal to diving head first into the ground from a height of 10 metres.

1.Why did Elizabeth say to her father，“But，Dad，you can’t be healthy if you’re dead”？

　 A.He was driving at great speed.

　 B.He was running across the street.

　 C.He didn’t have his safety belt on.

　 D.He didn’t take his medicine on time.

2.The reason father was in a hurry to get home was that he 　　　　.

　 A.wasn’t feeling very well　　　　　 B.hated to drive in the dark

　 C.wanted to take some exercise　　　　　 D.didn’t want to be caught by the police

3.According to the text，to be “thrown clear” of a serious accident is very dangerous because

　 you 　　　.

　 A.may be knocked down by other cars

　 B.may get serious hurt thrown out of the car

　 C.may find it impossible to get away from the seat

　 D.may get caught in the car door

4.Some people prefer to drive without wearing a safety belt because they believe 　　　　.

　 A.the belt prevents them from escaping in an accident

　 B.they will be unable to think clearly in an accident

　 C.they will be caught when help comes

　 D.cars catch fire easily

5.What is the advice given in the test?

　 A.Never drive faster than 30 miles an hour.

　 B.Try your best to save yourself in a car accident.

　 C.Never forget to wear the safety belt while driving.

　 D.Drive slowly while you’re not wearing a safety belt.

 

Do you want to see the effects of global warming? Then head north. Will Steger is going to take all of us there.
Steger, 64, the first person to make a dogsled trip to the North Pole, is a very famous and admired polar explorer. He’s at home in frozen parts of the world where few humans ever step on. Steger is also a devoted environmentalist who was early to ring the alarm bell on global warming. He saw its effects firsthand in frequent polar expeditions to the Arctic and Antarctica.
Now Steger is about to lead a team of six young adventurers on a 1,400-mile, 60-day-long dogsled trip across Ellesmere Island, in the Canadian Arctic. The sea ice in that region should still be frozen. “We want to take our audience to the front lines of global warming,” says Steger. The team will be uploading videos, stories and photos to the website globalwarming101.com as they march along, allowing armchair adventurers and kids in classrooms to follow their progress day to day. “We can actually bring the audience up there,” Steger says.
Steger’s team will include some already-famous young explorers. Sam Branson, the 22-year-old son of British airline tycoon (大亨) Richard Branson, is an experienced Arctic traveler. Also on the journey will be 27-year-old Norwegian Sigrid Ekran. Last year, Ekran became only the second woman in history to win Rookie (新秀) of the Year for the Iditarod Sled Dog Race.
What they will see may be very surprising. Even Steger doesn’t know exactly what to expect. Climate change has already reshaped the geography of the Arctic. “Within a decade or less, it’s going to be impossible to reach the North Pole by dog team without flotation (漂浮),” says Steger.
Climate change is happening, but people can change too. Their willingness to change will determine the shape of the Earth’s future

"To educate a girl is to educate a thousand people," says Maimouna Samaké, a mother of six children(including five girls). "If you put one seed(種子) in the ground and rain comes, it will grow to produce many seeds."

Samaké, one of 2,000 residents, lives in a small village, Sounkala, in one of the world’s poorest countries. Now she has a chance to see this wish come true thanks to build On, an American non-profit organization that is building a school in her community.

For 17 years, build On has been sending American high school students overseas to create schools in places where literacy(文化)and formal education are usually out of reach. The organization has built about 300 schools in Mali, Malawi, Nepal, Senegal, Nicaragua and Haiti. Its goal is to get young Americans in mostly urban(城市) areas to get involved in education. At the same time it can bring literacy to children and adults in poor villages in the developing world.

Sounkala’s school only has about 70 children; mud floors, poor lighting, few desks and an absence of books mean that the school is not the most ideal learning environment. Therefore they certainly could use build On’s help.

Samaké hasn’t been to school, but she wants a better future for her five daughters, including Ramatou, 12, and Mariam, 10. "When a woman attends school, she will teach what she learns to her children," said Ramatou, who wants to become a doctor. "She will also know how to take better care of her family."

Build On tries to build schools for grades one to three. If things go well over those three years, they return to help build another school for grades four to six, and then set up evening adult literacy classes.

Ramatou and Mariam will not learn inside the walls of build On school since they are already in the sixth grade, but Samaké hopes that they will be able to attend evening classes to continue learning.

1.Which of the following aspects of build On is NOT mentioned in the text?

A. Its history. B. Its goal.

C. Its approach. D. Its sources of money.

2.According to the text, build On is most likely to help a school _________.

A. in a village in a developed country

B. in an urban area in a developing country

C. in a rural area in a developing country

D. in an earthquake-stricken area in a developed country

3.What do we know about Samaké and her family?

A. Samaké only has daughters.

B. Samaké is well-educated.

C. Ramatou is a doctor.

D. Mariam is in the sixth grade.

4.The text mainly tells us about __________.

A. people’s education conditions in poor areas

B. a woman’s dream of going to school

C. an organization that helps build schools for people in poor areas

D. build On’s great contributions to education

To my Charlie on his wedding day—

I know you think these notes are silly. I have watched you wear a long face over the years when I give them to you. But understand that sometimes I want to tell you something and I want to get it just right. Putting it down on paper helps me do that. I wish I had been a better writer. I wish I had gone to college. If I had, I think I would have studied English and maybe my vocabulary would have improved. So many times I feel I am using the same words over and over. Like a woman wearing the same dress every day. So boring!

What I want to say to you, Charley, is you are marrying a wonderful girl. I think of Catherine in many ways like I think of Roberta. Like a daughter. She is sweet and patient. You should be the same with her, Charley.

Here is what you are going to find out about marriage: you have to work at it together. And you have to love three things. You have to love

1) Each other.

2) Your children (when you have some).

3) Your marriage.

What I mean by that last one is, there may be times that you fight, and sometimes you and Catherine won’t even like each other. But those are the times you have to love your marriage. It’s like a third party. Look at your wedding photos. Look at any memories you’ve made. And if you believe in those memories, they will pull you back together.

I’m very proud of you today, Charley. I am putting this in your tuxedo pocket because I know how you lose things.

I love you every day!

Mom

One will feel happy when others flatter (奉承) him in his face. It is said that the best way of flattering someone is to give him a "top hat"1

 Cheating is nothing new. But today,the Administrative Department for Education finds that examples of academic dishonesty on the part of students have become more frequent—and are less likely to be punished--than in the past. Cheating appears to have gained acceptance among good and poor students alike.

  Why is student cheating on the rise? No one really knows. Some blame the trend on a general loosening of moral values among today’s youth. Others have attributed (歸因于) increased cheating to the fact that today’s youth are far more practical than their idealistic ancestors. Whereas in the late sixties and early seventies,students were filled with visions about changing the world,today’s students feel great pressure to survive and succeed. In interviews with students at high schools and colleges around the country,both young men and women said that cheating had become easy. Some suggested they did it out of hate for teachers they didn’t respect. Others looked at it as a game. Only if they were caught,some said,would they feel guilty. “People are com-petitive ,” said a second-year college student named Anna,from Chicago. “There is a potential fear. If you don’t do well,your life is going to be ruined. The pressure is not only from parents and friends but from yourself. To achieve. To succeed. It’s almost as though we have to surpass people to achieve our own goals. ”

  Edward Wynne,editor of a magazine blames the rise in academic dishonesty in the schools. He claims that administrators and teachers have been too hesitant to take action. Dwight Huber,chairman of the English Department at Amarillo sees the matter differently,blaming the rise in cheating on the way students evaluated. “I would cheat if I felt I was being cheated ,” Mr Huber said. He feels that as long as teachers give short-answer tests rather than essay questions and rate students by the number of facts they can memorize rather than by how well they can combine and process information,students will try to beat the system. “The concept of cheating is based on the false belief that the system is legal and there is something wrong with the individuals who’re doing it ,”he said, “that’s too easy an answer. We’ve got to start looking at the system. ”

   D. Punishment for cheaters has always been severe in this country.

Sandy is thinking about getting a pet. She is reading these articles on a website.

A dog's life My name is Lucky. I am two years old. I am a 30-kg yellow dog. I am very friendly but some people are afraid of me. They think I am too big. My owner is my best friend. He takes me for a walk three times a day. He takes me to the park at the weekend and he takes me to the beach in summer. He does not like rainy days because I will get very wet and he will have to give me a shower. I like taking showers because I like chasing the towel when he dries me after a shower. I never fight or bite but I bark when someone touches my food. I can play many tricks but only when people give me biscuits. A cat's life My name is Dolly. I live next to Lucky. I am three years old. I am a 4-kg white cat. I love jumping onto the sofa or the window-ledge. I love watching people from my windows. I can see Lucky in the streets every day. I do not like going out because it is very dirty outside. I miaow when my bowl is empty. If you cannot find me, look into the cupboard or a cardboard box. I like sleeping in them. A goldfish's life My name is Yellow Tail. I live in a tank with five friends. I do not do much. I only swim, eat and sleep. My owners do not play with me. They only watch me. I like swimming in front of them. I do not like to be fish. I want to be Lucky. His owner takes him everywhere. I want to be Dolly, too. Her owners let her sit on their laps every evening. She is always very clean.
