Years ago, I worked at the Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus. One day, as I was passing the elephants, I suddenly stopped, by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. It was _that they could, at any time, break free, strangely enough, they didn’t. I asked a trainer the for this.
He said, “When they were very young we used the size rope, and it was enough to hold them. As they grow up, they believe the rope can hold them, so they never try.”
Like the elephants, how many of you believe you cannot do a thing, simply because you once before? Do you often tell “I cannot dance” or “I’m not good at math”?
These are of self limiting beliefs. You must realize you’re for them. A limiting belief that says you’re poor at math may have as a reaction to the embarrassing experiences related to math, or the remarks made by someone important to you which you. The cool thing is that because you create the ___you can choose to change it! Here is how:
First, it with “I am good at math”. Once you change your , your subconsciousness will make this by driving you to act. That might be to take a math course or to go online help, etc. Gradually you’ll really see your math skills are .
This is such a simple process that you can it today. Don’t be like the poor elephant and make your life at a place because of a limiting belief you developed years ago.

Researchers are finding new ways to save snakebite victims.Experts discussed the latest findings during a recent conference.
Scientists in Australia have shown that a chemical called nitric oxide could increase the chances of surviving a poisonous snakebite.The scientists injected rats with a deadly amount of snake venom.Then they rubbed an ointment(软膏)containing nitric oxide on the skin around the injection site.The study found that the rats lived about one-third longer than if nitric oxide had not been used.But the treatment had to be started very quickly.
Dirk van Helden led the research.He says the nitric oxide ointment also showed promise in humans.The study appeared earlier this year in the journal Nature Medicine.Scientists say the findings could help save many lives.A recent study found that poisonous snakes cause as many as ninety-four thousand deaths worldwide each year.But Ulrich Kuch of the Biodiversity and Climate Research Center in Frankfurt,Germany,says that number appears to be low.
Mr Kuch says many deaths could be prohibited if snakebite victims are treated correctly,but they often go to traditional healers or do not seek any help at all.He said,“Sometimes it’s because there is no treatment available—no antivenom(抗蛇毒血清),which is the specific(特殊的)drug to treat snakebites—or health care staff do not know how to treat snakebites,and sometimes its because transportation to get to a health facility is not available or too expensive.
Here is no single antivenom that can be used to treat all snakebites.The antivenom must be specific to the kind of snake that bit the person.In some countries the treatment is costly,while in others there is no such treatment.
1.What is this passage mainly about?( )
A.Snakebite deaths around the world.
B.Progress in fighting snakebite deaths.
C.Snakebite treatment around the world.
D.The chances of surviving a poisonous snakebite.
2.After being rubbed an ointment containing nitric oxide,the rats .
A.suffered no pain
B.died immediately
C.lived a little longer
D.started feeling uncomfortable
3.What does Paragraph 3 suggest?( )
A.The number of deaths caused by snakebites is becoming lower each year.
B.The nitric oxide ointment has saved thousands of people’s lives.
C.It is very important to find an effective way to treat snakebites.
D.The number of deaths caused by snakebites worldwide is low.
4.What does the underlined word “prohibited” in Paragraph 4 mean?( )
A. caused. B.considered.
C.examined. D.prevented.
5.What is implied in the last paragraph?( )
A.Antivenom can be made very easily.
B.It’s very important to use the correct antivenom to treat snakebite victims.
C.Antivenom is extremely expensive all over the world.
D.A person bitten by a snake will survive as long as there is antivenom.

Global warming happens when greenhouse gases trap heat and light from the sun in the earths atmosphere, which increases the temperature. This is like when heat is trapped in a car. On a hot day, the car gets hotter when it is out in the parking lot. This is because the heat and light from the sun can get into the car, by going through the windows，but it can’t get back out. This is what the greenhouse effect does to the earth .The heat and light can get through the atmosphere, but it can’t get out. As a result，the temperature rises.
Sometimes the temperature can change in a way that helps us. The greenhouse effect makes the earth appropriate for people to live on. Without it，the earth would be freezing，or it would be burning hot. It would be freezing at night because we would not get the sun’s heat and light .During the day, especially during the summer, it would be burning because the sun would be up with no atmosphere to filter(过滤)it，so people，plants，and animals would be exposed to all the light and heat.
Although the greenhouse effect makes the earth able to have people living on it，if there gets to be too many gases，the each can get unusually warmer, and many plants，animals．and people will die. Plants would die because they would not be able to take the heat .This would cause us to have less food to eat,and it would also limit the food that animals have. With less food for the animals that we need to survive we would even have less food. Gradually,people，plants，and animals would all die of hunger．
People are doing many things to try to stop global warming .One thing is carpooling—driving with someone to a place that you are both going to. Another thing is being more careful about leaving electrical devices turned on. Now,more people are even riding buses or bikes to lower the amount of greenhouse gases in the air .Although adults do many things to help stop global warming,kids call do just as much.
1. By the example given in Paragraph l, the author wants to__________.
A. explain how global warming happens.

C. tell us cars are causes of greenhouse gases.
D. say that I there are greenhouse gases in every car.
2. The underlined wordit in Paragraph 2 refers to__________.
A. light B. greenhouse effect

3. What is the effect of atmosphere?
A. It only traps the heat of the sun.
B. It does great harm to humans.
C. It makes the earth neither too hot nor too cold.
D. It prevents all the light from the sun shining on the earth.
4. What is the main idea of the third paragraph?
A. lf there is greenhouse effect,all the plants will die
B. Human beings are likely to disappear from the earth
C. Crops can ′t take in the heat lf there is greenhouse effect
D. Although greenhouse effect is necessary,too much of it will cause us to die.
5. What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?
A. What kids can do to help stop global warming.

Leadership is the most significant word in todays competitive business environment because it directs the manager of a business to focus inward on their personal abilities and style．Experts on leadership will quickly point out that“how things get done”influences the success of the outcomes and indicates a right way and a wrong way to do things．When a noted leader on the art of management，Peter Drucker,coined the phrase“Management is doing things right；leadership is doing the right things，”he was seeking to clarify the distinctions he associates with the terms．
When Stephen Covey,founder and director of the Leadership Institute，explored leadership styles in the past decade，he focused on the habits of a great number of higllly effective individuals．His Seven Habits of Highly Effective People became a popular bestseller very quickly. His ideas forced a reexamination of the early leadership example，which centered on the feature that was found in the character ethic(道德)and the personality ethic．The former ethic suggested success was founded on modesty,loyalty,courage，patience，and so on. The personality ethic suggested it was one’s attitude，not behavior,that inspired success, and this ethic was founded on a belief of positive mental attitude．In contrast to each of these ideas，Covey advocates that leaders need to understand universal principles of effectiveness，and he highlights how vital it is for leaders to first personally manage themselves if they are to enjoy any hope of outstanding success in their work environments；To achieve a desired vision for your business，it is essential that you have a personal vision of where you are headed and what you value．Business leadership means that managers need to“put first things first,” which implies that before leading others，you need to be clear on your own values，abilities，and strengths and be seen as trustworthy．
1.What does Peter Drucker’s phrase infer?
A．Leaders should be good at making right decisions．
B．Leaders should be good at doing things right．
C．Leaders should be good at ignoring distinctions．
D．Leaders should be skilled in predicting future．
2.Under what condition are people likely to succeed，in terms of what the personality ethic suggests?
A．When people have little determination，they will be successful．
B．When people have good behaviour，they will gain success．
C．If people have positive mental attitude, they are likely to succeed．
D．If people have negative mental attitude，they are certain to succeed．
3.How Can leaders enjoy outstanding success in their work environments，according to Stephen Covey?
A．Firstly they have to think highly of themselves．
B．They are supposed to benefit themselves．
C．They can not adjust themselves．
D．First they must manage themselves．
4.What is the meaning ofthe underlined word “vision”?
A．Bright future． B．Good beginning．
C．Good scenery．D．Pretty background．
5.To be good leaders．what must managers Pay close attention to?
A．Universal principles of effectiveness．
B．Values，abilities and strengths．
C．Good qualities such as modesty．
D．Courage as well as patience．

One day, Amy is digging in the ground for a potato when along comes Tom. Seeing that there is no one in sight, Tom starts to scream. Tom’s angry mother rushes over and drives Amy away. Once his mum has gone, Tom helps himself to Amy’s potato.
We’ve all experienced similar annoying tricks when we were young—the brother who stole your ball and then got you into trouble by telling your parents you had hit him. But Amy and Tom are not humans. They’re African baboons(狒狒). __1.___
Tom’s scream and his mother’s attack on Amy could have been a matter of chance, but Tom was later seen playing the same tricks on others. _2.__
Studying behavior like this is complicated but scientists discovered apes(猿) clearly showed that they intended to cheat and knew when they themselves had been cheated. __3.___ An ape was annoying him, so he tricked her into going away by pretending he had seen something interesting. When she found nothing, she “walked back, hit me over the head with her hand and ignored me for the rest of the day.”
Another way to decide whether an animal’s behavior is deliberate is to look for actions that are not normal for that animal. A zoo worker describes how an ape dealt with an enemy. “He slowly stole up behind the other ape, walking on tiptoe. When he got close to his enemy, he pushed him violently in the back, then ran indoors.” Wild apes do not normally walk on tiptoe. __4.__ But looking at the many cases of deliberate trickery in apes, it is impossible to explain them all as simple copying.
It seems that trickery does play an important part in ape societies. ___5.__ Studying the intelligence of our closest relative could be the way to understand the development of human intelligence.
A. An amusing example of this comes from a psychologist working in Tanzania.
B. And playing tricks is as much a part of monkey behavior as it is of human behavior.
C. So the psychologists asked his colleagues if they had noticed this kind of trickery.
D. Of course it’s possible that it could have learnt from humans that such behavior works, without understanding why.
E. This use of a third individual to achieve a goal is only one of the many tricks commonly used by baboons.
F. The ability of animals to cheat may be a better measure of their intelligence than their use of tools.
G. In most cases the animal probably doesn’t know it is cheating.
