It's an unquestioned truth of modern life that we are starved for time. We try our best to save bits of time here and there. Add it up, and we will finally do everything we want. But this idea has been completely backward. 1. We build the lives we want, and then time saves itself.
Do we really have no time? “I don' t have time" often means” It's not a priority(优先事项)". Time is highly flexible. We cannot make more time. However, time will stretch to accommodate what we choose to put into it. So not doing something is not a matter of lacking time; 2.Actually it's a matter of choice.
How do we treat our priorities? First, we need to figure out what our priorities are. Actually we may give ourselves a performance review. What did we do that made it so amazing? Next, we can write them into the next year's performance review. We will have a list of six to ten goals we can work on next year. 3.
4. Scientists find the really good time to do this is Friday afternoon. Friday afternoon is what an economist might call the "low opportunity cost" time. Most of us do not sit there on Friday afternoon saying, "I am excited to make progress toward my personal and professional priorities right now." But we are willing to think about what those should be. So take a little bit of time on Friday afternoon, and make a list of three-category priorities: careers, relationships and self.
It's about looking at the whole of one's time and seeing where the good aspects can go. There is time. 5. And when we focus on what matters, we can build the lives we want in time we’ve got.
A. it's that we are too busy with it.
B. it's that we don’t want to do it.
C. When do we plan our priorities?
D. Make sure there's time for the important things.
E. We don't build the lives we want by saving time.
F. Even if we are busy, we have time for what matters.
G. And then we need to break these down into doable steps.

When we are young we are taught that it’s wrong to lie and we should always tell the truth. Unfortunately, most children lie even if they’re told not to. Research carried out at the Institute of Child Study at Toronto Univercity has shown that this might not be such a bad thing. Apparently (显然地), children who tell lies when they’re two years old have a good chance of becoming successful adults (成年人).
According to the research, at the age of two, 20 per cent of children lie. At the age of three, 50 per cent lie, and at four almost 90 per cent lie. By the age of 12 almost every child tells lies.
Lying needs much brain work, and the better the lie is, the more work the brain has to do. By training the brain early, researchers believe children will be able to think more clearly when they are adults.
Recent research, carried out by the Science Museum in London, has shown some interesting facts about the way we lie as adults. According to the research, the average British man tells three lies every day; that’s over 1,000 lies a year. However, the average woman apparently only lies twice a day.
Most people think women are better liars (说谎者) than men although in fact they tell fewer lies. Popular women’s lies include ‘Nothing’s wrong, I’m fine’, ‘I don’t know where it is, I haven’t touched it’, and ‘It wasn’t that expensive’.
Some people say you can lie as long as it’s a white lie. A white lie is a lie told to avoid hurting someone’s feelings. One of the most common lies for both men and women is ‘It’s just what I’ve always wanted’, said after opening a present from their partner.
1.What will happen to young children who lie?
A.They will possibly do wrong later.
B.They’re likely to succeed in the future.
C.They will keep lying when they grow up.
D.They may have a good chance of losing others’ trust.
2.What do the numbers in Para. 2 show about children?
A.Older children tell bigger lies than younger ones.
B.As they grow, they often lie about their age.
C.The older they are, the more likely they lie.
D.It’s quite natural for them to tell lies.
3.What did the research by the Science Museum find out?
A.Men lie more than women. B.Women are better liars than men.
C.Women’s lies are usually not serious. D.Men sometimes have to lie to women.
4.What’s the true feeling behind the underlined part in the last paragraph?
A.You know me so well. B.I don’t like the present.
C.You are good at picking presents. D.I haven’t received a present I really like.

The oldest forms of medicine are enjoying a comeback. Modern holistic medicine is an approach that treats the whole patient, not just the disease. It is a way to maintain good health rather than cure illness. The most important influences on today’s holistic medicine are ancient Chinese medicine and Indian Ayurvedic medicine, both of which promoted whole body health.
Holistic medicine usually combines diet, physical exercise and meditation, together with other alternative techniques such as massage(按摩) and acupuncture(针炙). Herbal treatment, a practice of treating illness by using plants, is influenced by the writings of Culpeper as well as Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. Homeopathy(顺势疗法) is one of the forms of holistic medicine which is widely practiced in Europe and the USA. Homeopathy began in Germany in the early 1800s, when Samuel Hahnemann described how very tiny doses(剂量) of a drug had an effect on his patients. According to Hahnemann, the more the drug was diluted(稀释), the stronger its effects. The substance selected would produce similar effects to the disease itself if given in large doses. In the UK homeopathy is regarded as a non-traditional but just about acceptable treatment.
Meditation and contemplation have an important role in holistic medicine. They were brought to Europe by Indian teachers who combined Indian Ayurvedic medicine with Western beliefs. Transcendental meditation(超脱静坐) is one of the best known of these techniques. People repeat words inside their head to reach a state of deep relaxation.
The holistic movement has made many doctors look at the whole patient, not just the disease. Life-style, emotional problems and diet are just some of the factors that can affect a person’s health. Holistic medicine emphasizes good diet, exercise and fresh air, all of which contribute to health. Some clinics now offer holistic medicine along with traditional treatments, so that their patients can choose a combination of treatments that suits them. One problem with holistic medicine is that it is difficult for people to be sure a doctor is reliable. To solve this, many countries want alternative doctors to form professional bodies.
41.Modern holistic medicine centres upon .
A.curing a disease B.herbal treatment
C.continuous development D.keeping patients healthy
42.Which of the following does NOT belong to holistic medicine?
A.massage B.meditation
C.a balanced diet D.a knee operation
43.The principle of homeopathy is that .
A.the large doses of medicine that will not be harmful will take better effect
B.the disease will be cured sooner by taking larger doses of medicine
C.a small thinner dose of medicine will be more effective
D.the doses of medicine depend on how serious the illness is
44.Which of the following titles best sums up the passage?
A.Holistic Medicine B.Traditional Medicine Returns
C.History of Medicine D.Combination of Treatments Works
45.What can we infer from the passage?
A.Relaxation is the key of holistic treatment.
B.Holistic medicine needs to become more trustworthy.
C.Holistic treatment is more beneficial than traditional treatments.
D.Holistic medicine will become the most welcome treatment soon.

In life, we will succeed and fail often for reasons that are entirely out of our control. For instance, we can be incredibly nice and love someone deeply, and they may not love us back. We can work harder than anyone else in the office and still not be promoted to management. We can eat healthy food, exercise and stay away from alcohol and cigarettes, and still get sick.
The bottom line is that life is not fair.
That is a tough pill to swallow for many of us. As a result, some people shut down after being hit by even one unfair blow from life. They can’t handle the fact that our efforts don’t always get the results that we expect. But if we let life’s unfairness defeat us, we will never receive the beautiful blessings (幸事) that life has in store for us.
For example, my first marriage ended in divorce. To me, it felt very unfair. I had worked hard to be a good wife and mother. However, no matter what I did, I could not make the relationship work.
I could have been shut down by that experience. I could have decided that if one person didn’t appreciate me as a wife, then no one would. I could have given up. But I knew that I wanted to be married. I knew that I wanted to experience traditional family life. So I didn’t let one seemingly unfair experience stop me from believing that I could one day be happily married. And then one day, I met this kind, thoughtful, generous man with whom I now have a wonderful friendship and marriage. But that wouldn’t have happened if I had decided to give up after one failed marriage.
What I’ve learned over the years is that we can do all the things that deserve a good outcome, but get bad things in return instead.
When we are faced with life’s seeming unfairness, our faith needs to jump in. When life doesn’t go according to plan, we have to let go of the outcome that we are looking forward to and keep trying, working hard and doing the right thing. Please don’t be discouraged. Accept that life is neither fair nor straightforward. And by knowing that if we remain confident, we can drive our unfair experiences away and use them for our benefit.

A. life doesn’t often turn out the way we expect
