What happened to that brilliant idea that you once had? Did you it because you thought that it was just a little thought? Have you ever what that little thought would have become if you had acted on your instincts (直觉) if you had paid more attention to it?
Imagine a , where you are sitting at home watching television or reading a book, suddenly a light is on in the dark tunnel of your mind as a thought or an idea crosses your mind. The thought your attention but seems so meaningless and you are tempted to it, but wait a minute! That thought could be the potential beginning of the you have so much wished for.
As the thought crosses your mind, your senses become alert and you suddenly see a possibility, a solution, or find the answer to a problem whose solution has escaped you. It is almost as if a wise man has the perfect solution into your ear or awakened your senses to a reality, thereby bringing light to your life. It is like finding the piece of jigsaw puzzle (拼图游戏). This becomes an amazing moment and everything freezes around you as you excitedly try to grasp the practicality of that but powerful thought.
Your self-confidence and enthusiasm increase as you become of the great possibilities that can if that little thought is acted upon. This becomes the moment to build upon that thought and to put any ideas that are streaming from that little thought for later review. meaningless little thought or ideas when acted have a potential to explode into great projects. Many successful projects have been fromthe little positive thoughts that were carefully protected and recognized as bricks to great things.
Don't waste a(n) to act on a potentially brilliant idea. You don't have to wait for a major idea, or approval from your peers in order for you to act on that little thought.
That little thought or idea is the 55 of great things if you decide to follow it through.

Have you ever noticed what happens to an idea once you express it? Just talking about it or writing it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind. How can you use this to increase your brain power? Start writing.
By putting thoughts into words, you are telling yourself the logic (逻辑) behind what you think, feel, or only partly understand. Often, explaining a thought is the process of understanding. In other words, you increase your brain power by exercising your “explain power.”
Try this experiment. Explain how you’ll increase your brain power, even if you have no idea how right now. Just start with anything, and create an explanation. For example, start with “I’ll learn chess,” or “I’ll read an article on the mind every week.” Explain how that will help. You’ll be surprised how often this becomes a workable plan, and if you actually do this, you’ll have a better understanding of your brain twenty minutes from now.
Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember. Many, if not most, highly productive people are always taking notes. You can try keeping it all in your head, but if you keep a journal of your ideas the next time you’re working on a big project, you’ll probably have more success.
Want to understand a topic? Write a book about it. That’s an extreme example, but if you are learning something new, write a letter to a friend about it, and you will understand it better. Want to invent something? Write an explanation of the problem, why you want to solve it, and why it is worth solving, and you’re half-way there.
Writers don’t always write because they clearly understand something beforehand. Often, they write about something because they want to understand it. You can do the same. Writing will help bring you to an understanding. Give it a try.
1.What would be the best title for the text?
A. A Way on How to Write
B. Increase Your Brain Power through Writing
C. Brain Power Helps Improve Your Writing
D. How to Start Your Writing
2.If a writer writes something, it means that he or she _______.
A. has understood it very well
B. needs to understand it better
C. wants to remember it in his or her mind
D. is exercising his or her “explain power”
3.The underlined sentence “you’re half-way there” in the fifth paragraph implies that ______.
A. you are already successful
B. you still need to work hard
C. writing can help you walk half way
D. you have been on the way to success
4.What’s the main purpose of the writer writing the text?
A. To advise readers to start their writing.
B. To explain the importance of writing.
C. To persuade readers to become writers.
D. To increase readers’ brain power.

Have you ever had a science class that you look forward to? It doesn’t happen often. But when you have a teacher like Mrs. Field, it’s more than a science class. It’s a science class where learning is easy and fun. There is no getting down to a huge textbook or listening to a teacher about something you don’t care about.
My experience with Mrs. Field didn’t start with science class, but with her as my tutor. I was always a weak reader and wasn’t getting any better. My parents told me I needed to be tutored. One day after school, I went into the library with my mom for my first tutoring time. I had no idea who was tutoring me. My mom practically had to drag me into the library. The first thing we did was to play a game to get to know each other and get rid of the awkwardness. We didn’t even play a reading game.
We also went around the library and I got to pick out a book I wanted to read. She didn’t make me read a boring textbook about something I didn’t care about. I didn’t even pick a book. I picked out a magazine about remote control cars. I thought to myself, how bad could it be? To my surprise, She told me even though I was reading a magazine, I was still reading. After the first magazine, she picked out a book she liked. I would read a chapter and then she would read a chapter to me, in this way I didn’t have to read for long periods of time.
As I got better and faster at reading, I was able to read two chapters in the same amount of time, which used to take me to read one chapter.
Reading is one of the most important things in high school and college to be successful. If it were not for her, I would not be the reader I am today !
1. The writer tutored by Mrs. Field because____________.
A. he was too shy to talk with others.
B. he found science fun but hard.
C. he was eager to learn science.
D. he lacked the skills of reading.
2. It can be inferred from the second paragraph that __________.
A. the writer knew Mrs. Field very well
B. the writer was unwilling to be tutored
C. the writer felt awkward to read in the library
D. the writer went to the library to play a reading game
3. At the library, the writer __________.
A. chose any book he was interested in
B. played a reading game with Mrs. Field
C. was asked to read one chapter after another
D. had to read textbooks rather than magazines
4.What’s the author’s feeling about Mrs. Field according to the last paragraph?
A. unsatisfied B. worried
C. grateful D. regretful

If you want to cook something quickly, you heat it from both sides. That’s what’s happening to the West Antarctic ice sheet(南极洲西部冰盖). A new study reveals that the area under the ice sheet is far hotter than previously thought, fed by an unexpected flow of geothermal energy(地热能). While the CO2 we send out heats the atmosphere above the continent, earth is melting us ice from below.
If you were to drill (钻) deep at some place on the continents, you would find that the temperature increases about 25℃ for every kilometer deep into the hole on average. Scientists call this the geothermal gradient(地热梯度). Until recently, no one had drilled deeply enough through the West Antarctic ice to determine the geothermal gradient underground. For the new study, researchers drilled all the way through the ice and into the mud. They found that the geothermal gradient was about 200℃, which is several times the global average on continents. Few predicted this result, although it had been showed that the earth below the West Antarctic ice is unusually hot.
Even with the new discovery, though, we still don’t know exactly where the heat is coming from. One interesting possibility is volcanoes, which are under the ice. As recently as 2013, scientists were still discovering volcanoes under the ice in the area, and there may be many more.
Some people say that these volcanoes, rather than manmade climate change, are responsible for melting the area’s ice. While it’s true that heat coming from within the earth, including heat related to volcanoes, makes the melting faster, it is just one contributor to the loss of the West Antarctic ice sheet---not the main cause. Today’s study could help us understand how the whole system, including global warming, is melting the ice.
1.What’s happening to the West Antarctic ice sheet?
A. The ice sheet is getting hotter and hotter.
B. It is heated from below rather than from above.
C. The ice sheet is producing a new kind of energy.
D. It is melting from both sides.
2.What can be learned from the second Paragraph?
A. It was the first time that researchers had tried to measure geothermal gradients.
B. The geothermal gradient showed where the heat came from.
C. The result was beyond the researchers’ expectations.
D. Researchers never knew the earth under the West Antarctic ice was hot.
3.The author would probably agree that ___.
A. the new discovery is unhelpful without a certain conclusion
B. no volcano has been found to support the researchers’ idea
C. volcanoes are the most important reason for the melting of the ice
D. global warming is surely one reason for the melting of the ice
4.What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. The West Antarctic ice sheet is in danger.
B. Researchers are trying to stop global warming.
C. The West Antarctic ice sheet’s melting will bring terrible consequences.
D. It has been known how to stop the melting of the West Antarctic ice sheet.

Do you ever throw away food at home? Have you ever thought about what happens to the food that shops and supermarkets don't sell? Well,you might be shocked to find out that about one third of food produced for humans gets wasted. What's more,around 800 million people in the world don't live a healthy life for lack of food.
Many people in the UK and across the world are trying to do something with this situation. They are trying their best to make use of eatable food that is thrown away.
For example,there is a coffee bar in Leeds (UK) whose meals are all cooked with unsold food from supermarkets. The spare food is turned into delicious food to feed the hungry people of Leeds. Customers just pay what they can afford or help the bar wash something. In just ten months,10,000 people were fed at this bar.
Besides,the UK's first food waste supermarket opened last year. The supermarket works on a “pay as you feel” basis. Customers pay whatever they want. Some lowincome families have said that it has changed their lives.
“Fuel for School” is another food waste project. Spare food from supermarkets such as dairy,vegetables,fruit and bread is used to feed hungry schoolchildren whose families may not be able to afford to buy them lunch.
More coffee bars like Leeds are being opened in other parts of the UK such as Bristol and Manchester,and it is now becoming a worldwide event.
I think this is an amazing step as food waste is one of the world's biggest problems. I also believe that the law should be changed,so that supermarkets don't throw away so much good food.
1.What does the author think of the coffee bar's action?
A.He thinks it very good. B.He is worried about it.
C.He is doubtful about it. D.He thinks it interesting.
2.What's the goal of “Fuel for School”?
A.Help poor kids choose healthy food to eat.
B.Deal with bad food from supermarkets.
C.Make kids perform well in their study.
D.Feed students from poor families.
3.Which of the following does the author advise?
A.We buy food based on our ability.
B.More coffee bars are opened in Leeds.
C.Restaurants offer children food for free.
D.Governments take action to reduce food waste.
4.What is the best title of the text?
A.The Problem of Food Waste Should Be Solved
B.Fuel for School Offers Food to The Poor
C.Different Actions to Solve the Problem of Food Waste in UK
D.Spare Food From Supermarkets Is Thrown Away
