Ways to Have an Amazing Day
I’m a big believer in the Law of the Harvest: 1 . If we plant the seeds of success every day, we will reap a successful harvest. If we delay the planting, we cannot expect to harvest. Here are a few tips for making sure you can answer the pop quiz of life confidently:
Keep Learning
A child has the opportunity to learn about 100 new things a day and they love the feeling of learning something new. That’s why a young child will ask their parents, "Why?" about a thousand times a week. They are learning and growing. It wouldn’t hurt us to look around throughout the day and ask, "Why did that happen? How does that work? What can I do about that?" 2
Be Kind
It has been said that you can measure a person by how they treat the people who can do nothing for them. One great way to get more out of your day is to fill it with people you know. 3 The best way to know more people is to take a moment to learn a little about them.
4
I have noticed for some time that a lot of the happiest and most satisfied people I know have one or more big "life goals" they are working towards. It may be to run a marathon, write a book, start a business, develop a product, or learn a new hobby or profession. It doesn’t really
5 In fact, most people experience something like a "pop midterm". Those are the moments in life where you wake up and realize that you have wasted the last 5—10 years on cruise control. Some people lose a job and realize they haven’t taken the time to develop any skills that would help them find another one.
A. Find A Suitable Purpose
B. Be kind to everyone you meet.
C. Look for some ways to serve.
D. We harvest what we sow.
E. Is your life filled with meaningless activities?
F. A lifetime of learning leads to a love for life.
G. Life doesn’t always throw us too many pop quizzes.

How do you think I should do with this situation?

Dear Sir,
Having read about your newspaper's decision to start a campaign for protecting the environment, I decide to write you this letter.
The state of our park is very shocked, with rubbish everywhere. I was used to find a trip to the park very relaxing. Upon the arrival of spring, beautiful birds would sing happy in the park. I enjoyed this very much. Therefore, now I just find it tiring, because I have to pick up rubbish where I am going to sit. The grass is covered on plastic bags and food. I am sad that the young people of today do not clean up after themselves before he leave the park. There are so much interesting animals and insects living in our parks. It would be shame if they were destroyed because of people's activity there.
Yours
Wang Qiang

【题目】In June 2014, Huffington Post and Mail Online reported that three-year-old Victoria Wilcher, who suffered facial scarring, was kicked out of a KFC because she was a frightening customer. Later, KFC announced that no evidence had been found to support the story. This phenomenon is largely a product of the increasing pressure in newsrooms that care more about traffic figures.
Brooke Binkowski, an editor, says that she has seen a shift towards less responsibility in newsrooms. “Clickbait is king, so newsrooms will uncritically print something unreal. Not all newsrooms are like this, but a lot of them are.”
Asked what the driving factor was, a journalist said, “You’ve a strict editor and you’ve to meet your targets. And some young journalists are inexperienced and will not do those checks. So much news reported online happens online. There is no need to get out and knock on someone’s door. You just sit at your desk and do it.”
Another journalist says, “More clicks equal more money. At my former employer in particular, the pressure was due to the limited resources. That made the environment quite horrible to work in.”
In a Feb. 2015 report for Digital Journalism, Craig Silverman wrote, “Today the bar for what is worth giving attention to seems to be much lower. Within minutes or hours, a badly sourced report can be changed into a story that is repeated by dozens of news websites, resulting in tens of thousands of shares. The rumor becomes true for readers simply by virtue of its ubiquity.”
And, despite the direction that some newsrooms seem to be heading in, a critical eye is becoming more, not less important, according to the New York Times’ public editor, Margaret Sullivan. “Reporters and editors have to be more careful than ever before. It’s extremely important to question and to prove before publication.” Yet those working in newsrooms talk of doubtful stories being tolerated. In the words of some senior editors, “a click is a click, regardless of the advantage of a story”. And, “if the story does turn out to be false, it’s simply a chance for another bite at the cherry.”
【1】According to Brooke Binkowski, newsrooms produce false news because _________.
A. clicks matter a lot B. resources are limited
C. budgets are tight D. journalists lack experience
【2】What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Lies can’t sell without an atom of truth.
B. Rumors are like a flame blown by the wind.
C. You can hear rumors, but you can’t know them.
D. A lie, repeated often enough, will end up as truth.
【3】What’s Margaret Sullivan’s attitude towards false news online?
A. Negative. B. Supportive.
C. Skeptical. D. Neutral.
【4】What is the best title of the passage?
A. Spread of false stories. B. Causes of online false news.
C. Duties of journalists. D. A craze to get clicks.

【题目】A new study says one part of the human brain may become smaller as the result of a condition known as jet lag(时差). People with jet lag feel extremely tired for several days. They may also have problems in thinking clearly and remembering.
Recently a researcher at the University of Bristol in Britain reported the findings of his jet lag study, which involved twenty women who worked for international airlines. They had served passengers on airplanes for five years. These flight attendants flew across many countries and at least seven time zones. In the study, the flight attendants had different amounts of time to recover from jet lag. Half the women spent five days or fewer in their home areas between long flights. The other half spent more than fourteen days in their home areas.
The researcher took some saliva (唾液) from the women’s mouths to measure levels of a hormonethat increases during stress. He tested them to see if they could remember where black spots appeared on a computer screen. And he took pictures of their brains to measure the size of the brain’s temporal lobes (脑叶).
It was found that the women who had less time between flights had smaller right temporal lobes. This area of the brain deals with recognizing and remembering what is seen. The same group performed worse and had slower reaction on the visual memory test. And their saliva samples showed higher levels of stress hormones.
The researcher believes the brain needs at least ten days to recover after a long trip. He says airline workers told him their ability to remember got worse after working on planes for about four years. Other studies have shown that increased feelings of stress can cause a loss of cells in the part of the brain that controls memory.
Scientists say more tests are needed to study the effects of jet lag on the brain. They want to find out if too much jet lag could permanently affect memory.
【1】It can be inferred from the text that ______.
A. the conclusion is refused by many scientists
B. scientists fear that this research is not done properly
C. every scientific conclusion needs the support from many tests
D. the women who were examined in the research were not healthy
【2】From the result of the research we can see that _____.
A. the women who have longer rest at home perform better on the test.
B. the women who fly in short time have smaller right temporal lobes
C. the women who have longer flights fail the memory test
D. the women who rest more than 14 days produce more hormones
【3】What is the subject discussed in the test?
A. The cause of jet lag.
B. A story of a group of flight attendants.
C. The importance of having enough rest after flights.
D. A research about the effects of jet lag on the brain
