There is, for many of us, a moment in life when we make a choice that changes us forever. This moment marks a turning point, when we realize that the life we're living is not a mirror of who we really are.
For some, the moment comes as a result of something dramatic: the sudden loss of a job, or the death of a loved one. For others, they have to deal with difficult situations, such as financial hardship. In these challenging times, it's more critical(关键时刻的) than ever for us to seize the possibility of positive change. As I travel and talk to people about their lives, I often see a distant, vacant look in their eyes -- a look that says “I’m so busy trying to survive my life that no soul left to live it”.
As a result, we end up feeling lonely. Yet we keep on going the way we've been going. We tolerate high levels of stress at work, take important relationships for granted, or put our health needs on hold. We get so caught up in the details of living that our busyness becomes an excuse from the inner voice that begs us to listen. When you finally pay attention to that little voice and begin to make even small changes, you will slowly improve yourself.
To start positive change, you need the power of your mind. I've come up with a five-step strategy that will help you. You will be able to identify what you want and then go after it. It's easier than you might think.
1. Reset your happiness set point. Don't limit yourself! When I decided that I wanted more control over my life, I set goals in physical, emotional, financial, professional, material, and play. I challenged myself to consider every possible choice. Imagine things you've never believed you could achieve. Don't let your past determine your future.
2. Trust your courage. Too often, when you're first learning to take control of your life, you doubt yourself. It's important to develop a strong connection with your inner guidance system. I've heard many stories about the persistent voice inside your head.
3. Take action. Once you have set goals, adjusted your beliefs, and got ready, you can start making things happen. Again, turn to those people you respect -- the ones achieving what you desire -- for support and guidance. They will both inspire you and give you practical advice on what steps you need to take.
4. Have faith. Believe that the positive energy of grace will support your efforts to improve your life. When you've done all you can, let go and trust that the right result will occur. When we have faith, we give up the need to be in control, and we set ourselves up to actually enjoy the process of change.
5. Be patient. This can be the toughest step. It's not easy to trust that your life will improve in a best way. Remind yourself of the benefits of patience. In my experience, those life changes are always worth the wait.
1.What does the author intend to say in the second paragraph?
A. The start of some turning points in one’s life is caused by crisis.
B. Loss of a job or the death of a loved one are all dramatic things.
C. No one can live a life without any turning points.
D. No one can predict his future of being good or not.
2.In the author’s opinion, we should ______________.
A. adjust our beliefs from time to time B. always control ourselves for anything
C. keep on going the way we are going D. seize the challenging times to live an active life
3.The author suggests that when setting your happiness set points, you should _______.
A. know the limitation of your set point B. build self-confidence without doubt
C. limit your goals in different ways D. consider every possible choice with care
4.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. When you've done all you can, you may believe that the right result will occur.
B. When you set goals, and take action, it is possible to make things happen.
C. When you first learn to take charge of your life, you will always doubt yourself.
D. If things do not happen in a way that is best, patience is always worth the wait.

We all know that eating junk food can make us fat. However, a new study suggests that it can do more than that – it can also make us lazy, reported CBS News.
In the study, researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, US divided 32 female rats into two groups. The first group was fed a diet of healthy food such as corn and fish, while the second was given a diet of highly processed (加工的) food rich in sugar, namely “junk food”.
Within three months, the rats in the second group were already much fatter than those on the healthy diet. And when researchers trained the rats to do simple tasks, they found even more differences between the two groups rather than weight.
During the task – pushing a lever (杠杆) to receive a reward of sugar water – the rats on the junk food diet were found to be less willing to move, and they took longer breaks between each push than the lean rats did.
“It is as if the rat is thinking ‘This is too much work’,” Aaron Blaisdell, leader of the study, told the Los Angeles Times.
But what about the possibility that the fat rats were less passionate about getting sugar water because they were already eating lots of sugar in their daily diet? That’s why researchers repeated the tests by rewarding fat rats with plain water when they were extremely thirsty. However, the results came out just the same.
According to researchers, these differences suggest that junk food changed the chemistry in the rats’ brains.
The experiment didn’t end there. After six months, the rats’ diets were switched, and the overweight rats were given a healthy diet for nine days. However, this change didn’t help reduce their weight or improve their ability to perform tasks, which means the effects of their junk food diet persisted (持续存在). “There’s no quick fix,” said Blaisdell.
For a long time, we’ve believed that people become fat because they are lazy. But this study has proven the opposite to be true as well, which indicates that laziness and obesity are a “vicious cycle (恶性循环)”.
So, if you constantly feel tired, lacking any urge to get up from your chair, it could be that you’ve been studying too hard. But you should also pay attention to your diet.
1.During the first three months of the experiment by researchers at the University of California, ______.
A. rats from the healthy diet group ate nothing but corn and fish
B. rats on the junk food diet ate more than those on healthy diet
C. rats on the healthy food diet performed better at simple tasks than those on the junk food diet
D. rats on the junk food diet seemed uninterested in sugary food
2.The researchers rewarded thirsty rats with plain water in the lever test to ______.
A. help them control their weight
B. test whether fat rats lost interest in the test because they had taken enough sugar
C. change the diet habits of fat rats
D. find out the influence of sugar on rats’ brains
3. The underlined word “there” refers to ______.
A. after the rats on the junk food diet had worked hard to get sugar water
B. after the type of food rats prefer had been identified
C. after a quick cure for obesity had been found
D. after the fact that fatter rats are lazier than lean rats had been found
4.We can conclude from the article that ______.
A. fat people are usually lazier than lean people
B. people should switch between different types of diets to keep healthy
C. being overweight and being lazy can feed into each other
D. laziness is the main cause of weight problems
5.Which of the following is Not Right according to the passage?
A. Eating junk food can make us fat.
B. Researchers got different results after repeated the tests to fat rats.
C. For a long time, we’ve believed that people become fat because they are lazy.
D. If you constantly feel tired or study too hard, you need to pay attention to your diet.
