Everyone has a dream. We are on the way to achieve it whether the way is smooth or toughly. As senior 3 student, I have the same dream as my classmates that I can be admitted to an ideal university. In the past three years, I have done everything I can to equip myself with that I have learnt from my teachers. Not only have I enjoyed the pleasure of study but also I have got closer to my dream. Anxious and pressure did discourage from me at times. Besides, with the encouragement of my teachers and classmates, I think I’ll make it. I’m sure that there has still a long way to go to achieve my dream. No matter how challenged it is, I’ll make it come true. As the proverb said, “Where there’s a will, there’s a way.”

Nearly everyone has bad habits.That's because，try as we might，bad habits are hard to break.On the other side，good habits，such as eating more healthfully or exercising regularly，never seem to stick.As a result，most people throw up their hands and surrender．
But now a new book，Better Than Before: Mastering the Habits of Our Everyday Lives by best-selling author Gretchen Rubin，offers some useful solutions.
Rubin，who became interested in habits during her research on happiness，which resulted in two popular books，The Happiness Project (2009) and Happier at Home (2012)，found that our inability to master unwanted behaviors was a major downer (令人沮丧的因素)．So，after guiding millions of readers down the path of true contentedness，Rubin turned her investigative skills toward habits.
Her most important find? Change is possible if we do some soul searching and identify how we respond to expectations.And，just about everybody falls into one of four personality categories：Questioners，Obligers，Rebels and Upholders.
Rubin believes herself to be a classic Upholder，someone who forms habits relatively easily because she responds well to both other people's deadlines and her own.As to the other types，Questioners will only form a habit if it makes sense to them; Obligers work hard to meet other people's expectations but often let themselves down.And Rebels resent (反感) habits.
“Think about the habit that you want to form and then think: “What's everything I could do to set myself up for success？” says Rubin.For example，if you want to exercise more and you're an Obliger，call your friend who lives across the street and meet at 6：30 every morning for a walk.
One common pitfall (陷阱)，says Rubin，especially when it comes to changing your diet，is lack of clarity (清楚)．“You can't make a habit out of eating more healthfully，” she says.Instead，your habit should be something like: “I'm going to pack a lunch every day and bring it to work instead of eating out.”
As for exercise，Rubin recommends a strategy called pairing—coupling two activities，one that you need or want to do and one that you don't particularly want to do.Rubin，for example，only allows herself to read magazines while on fitness equipment at the gym.
1.What does the underlined word “surrender” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Catch up. B. Settle down.
C. Calm down D. Give up.
2.Why did Rubin start to study habits?
A. She used to suffer from some bad habits.
B. Good habits make people successful.
C. Bad habits make people unhappy.
D. Her two books about habits sold quite well.
3.Which kind of people try to meet other people's expectations instead of theirs?
A. Rebels. B. Questioners.
C. Upholders. D. Obligers.
4.The pairing strategy________．
A. forces people to do something necessary
B. is used to make people more efficient
C. encourages people to enjoy themselves
D. can help people have a healthy diet

We are humans, and we all make mistakes. The mistakes that we make are not usually on purpose, whether it is breaking a vase, or not completing a task. 1. This article will provide you with ideas as to what to do once a mistake has been made.
Admit that you make a mistake as soon as you discover it. Delaying it longer will only make you feel worse, or may drive you toward making the wrong decision to try and cover it up.
2. Do not play the “blame game”. Most people are smart enough to realize that this is just a poor attempt to protect yourself. Perhaps you gave a task to another person and it was never completed. But is it really the entire fault of the person you gave the task to or is it partially your fault for not following up? Keep this in mind before placing the blame on someone else.
3. Maybe you broke your mother’s favorite vase, or even forgot a friend's birthday. Just an apology can sometimes be viewed as a “quick fix”, and apologizing and asking to be forgiven gives the person opportunity to forgive you.
Offer some compensation(补偿) for loss, damage, or injury caused. 4. By doing this, it may soften the blow to the person we've disappointed.
Learn from your mistakes. In the case of a job or a task, write a "to-do" list with the deadline before leaving the meeting. As for forgetting a birthday, put the birthday on an electronic calendar for next year.
Do better next time. 5. We should try to understand what happened and try to make sure that it won’t happen again.
A. Take responsibility.
B. Never repeat your mistakes.
C. Apologize and ask for forgiveness.
D. People’s faith in us can reduce quickly.
E. So sometimes it is necessary to write a letter to say sorry.
F. But not everyone knows how to admit making a mistake.
G. Offer to immediately complete the late task or pay for the vase.

Everyone can try his best to achieve something. We don't need to be the best, but to challenge the limits of what we are capable of. I gained this belief from my third grade teacher, the most special, honored, trustworthy, and beloved person in my life.
Mr. Myrus was always perfectly dressed and spoke with the belief that talking to an eight－year－old child didn't mean he had to sacrifice proper statements or grammar. And he was demanding,__but he wasn't unreasonable or cruel. He simply felt that no matter what your best was, you should achieve it.
Luckily enough, I met him again as my eighth grade math teacher. I was not, nor ever will be, gifted in math. I remember my struggles in class. “I don't know the answer，” I would say. “I can't do it！” “Perhaps you don't know the answer，” he would say quietly. “Do you think we might figure it out together? How do you know what you can do if you don't have a try？”
Mr. Myrus lived around the corner, and I would often stop by to talk while he worked in his garden. I knew there was someone who let me know that if I had really tried, that was enough. “Don't be so hard on yourself，”he'd say.“Stop blaming yourself. Did you try your best? Well，then you're not a failure，” he often told me these words.
Mr. Myrus died in 1978. I had never thought about his death. He was too young. I felt sorry. But when I think about him now, I don't feel so sorry. He taught me to be kind, not only to others，but to myself. He taught me my own value. He taught me about honor, about truth, and about doing my best and he also taught me that all feelings and beliefs have dignity and deserve respect. And of all the things I know, I believe that we can't all be “the best”， but we can, each of us, be our best. And I know that's true because Mr. Myrus told me that.
1.What does the underlined word “demanding” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A. Strict. B. Indifferent.
C. Critical. D. Careful.
2.Why did the author think he was lucky in Paragraph 3?
A. Mr. Myrus became his teacher again.
B. Mr. Myrus was his teacher for eight years.
C. He became interested in math because of Mr. Myrus.
D. He developed a good relationship with Mr. Myrus.
3.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The author may have become a teacher.
B. The author liked to recall his childhood.
C. The author believed he would be the best of all.
D. The author ended up being a man of self－confidence.
4.What can we learn about Mr. Myrus according to the passage?
A. He is usually indifferent to the students.
B. He is responsible for his students and his teaching.
C. He is a person who isn't particular about what he wears.
D. He is sometimes cruel and unreasonable to his students.

They say there are three ways to experience the Grand Canyon; on foot, on mules(骡子) or by air. We chose the first. Up early, my husband and I and our three children couldn't wait to get started. We decided to walk along a lovely path named Bright Angel Trail.
As we set out, I was shocked at how narrow the path was. And I couldn't help noticing that the other tourists weren't like us. They had heavy backpacks, water bottles, and hats. But as usual we were dressed. As the sun rose higher, Arizona's famous heat seemed to roast us. There was no shade and our legs were aching. We decided to go back, with the girl on my back and the boys far behind. By the time we finally got back, our legs were like jelly.
The next day, after we'd had a long rest and a good breakfast, we were ready for another view of the Canyon—by air. After our last walk, this would be the easiest thing in the world.
We called to each other excitedly as the plane took off and circled around the Canyon. But the smiles on our faces disappeared as the pilot tossed(翻转) the plane around, pretending he was going to hit the ground. I shouted, "STOP, TAKE US BACK!" When we finally arrived back on land, once again our legs were like jelly. We hardly spoke as we drove back.
As I said, there are three ways to view the Grand Canyon. We never tried the mules, but personally I'd suggest a fourth: buy yourself a good magazine like National Geographic. That way, you can see the Canyon, without fear or tiredness.
1.Which of the following is true according to the second paragraph?
A.They made a careful preparation before the trip.
B.The children were more joyful than their parents.
C.Bright Angel Trail was not as lovely as they expected.
D.The summer heat prevented them from enjoying the view.
2.The underlined expression "Our legs were like jelly" probably means ______.
A.we were weak B.we were unhappy
C.we were dissatisfied D.we were disappointed
3.Which of the following best describes their Canyon trip by air?
A.It proved to be frightening. B.It was more comfortable.
C.It turned out to be exciting. D.It made each of them tired.
4.We can infer from the passage that ____.
A.experiencing the Canyon on mules would be the best way
B.one needs to dress less when visiting the Grand Canyon
C.the writer was not serious when she made the suggestion
D.the whole family narrowly escaped from the air accident

This time, it is to be worn on wrists. Having already changed the way we communicate with its smartphones, Apple Inc released its next big thing on March 9 in San Francisco, US.
The Apple Watch, according to CNN, is “a simple rectangular (矩形的) shape with a range of stylish and useful wristbands.” “The style is classic... in those respects (方面) it’s up there with the top quality Swiss watches,” commented the news outlet.
The watch will be available in nine places, including the US, the UK and China, from April 24. The starting price is $349 (2,186 yuan).
With six different designs and 30 or so wristbands, the gadget “sets the standard for smartwatches, in style,” agreed The Brisbane Times,“but more importantly, in functionality (功能性).” “With the built-in speaker and microphone, you can receive calls on your watch. I have been wanting to do this since I was 5 years old,” said Apple’s chief executive Tim Cook.
In fact, anything you can do on the iPhone is there on the watch – e-mails, text messages, airline boarding services, and directions from Apple Maps. Using a home security app, you can keep an eye on your home from afar, or even open a locked door.
There are some features that have made Cook sure the watch is “our most personal device yet; a new chapter in the way we relate to technology”. According to NPR, the watch taps you on the wrist to draw your attention to a message or a calendar reminder, and it can send a tap on the wrist to another Apple Watch wearer.
However, the watch can also do things that are just plain fun. You can send a real-time display of your heartbeat to another Apple Watch to “let someone know you are thinking about them.”
Patrick Moorhead, a leading technology analyst in the US, described the tech company as “a master in the art of persuasion”. “The secret weapon is the ability to message each other by tapping on the watch,” he told The Associated Press. “I think people, particularly kids, are going to go nuts (疯狂) over that.”
So far, though, the most impressive part of this new device is “the monitoring of the wearer’s health and fitness,” said AFP. It will even tap you on the wrist if you have been sitting down for longer than is good for your health.
1.Which of the following features of the Apple Watch are mentioned in the article?
a. its price
b. its functions
c. its shortcomings
d. its shape and weight
e. when and where people can buy it
A. abd
B. abe
C. bce
D. bde
2.Which of the following words best describes Tim Cook’s attitude toward the Apple Watch?
A. Proud.
B. Modest.
C. Serious.
D. Cautious.
3.How does the Apple Watch let wearers know there is a new message?
A. The watch beeps.
B. The watch sends out music.
C. The watch changes its screen color.
D. The watch taps the wearer on the wrist.
4.With an Apple Watch, you can ______.
A. monitor your health and diagnose yourself
B. send a real-time display of your heartbeat to an iPhone
C. be reminded to move around if you’ve been sitting down for too long
D. receive emails, text messages and calls, and open a locked door for your neighbor
