【题目】How can I carry out a group project?
Group projects can be so overwhelming (使人不知所措的), especially when people don’t cooperate and follow through. “【1】” To follow this wise advice from expert Julie Hochheiser IIkovich, simply break down that hug project into smaller jobs that can be tracked. Here’s exactly how to do it:
●List it. The day the project is assigned, immediately identify the end goal. 【2】This should include everything from minor tasks to major ones.
●Schedule it.【3】This should include meetings, tasks, and deadlines. Assign each person a color and highlight each task with those colors, so it’s clear who is doing what.
●Track it. As a team, decide on a project manager who will keep everyone on track, and who you agree is allowed to call team members out if they’re not hardworking. (Advice on how to choose: 【4】)
As stressful as group work is, it can actually be beneficial in the long run. At first, groups that work well together can achieve much more than individuals working on their own. And being part of a team will help you develop your interpersonal skills. Also, working with others will help identify your own strengths and weaknesses. 【5】
A. Give feedback on group processes to groups
B. Then list what needs to get done to accomplish it
C. Look for the person with the most organized desk!
D. A half-hour of planning saves a week of stress at the end!
E. Create a timetable for the project and put everything from the list on it.
F. This sense about yourself will be invaluable when you enter the workforce.
G. Group projects can help people develop new approaches to solving problems.

【题目】For years people had told our founders, motivational speakers Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen, inspiring stories about themselves. Jack and Mark included these stories in their talks, and their audiences repeatedly asked if they had ever been published. Eventually, Jack and Mark decided to collect the best 101 stories they’d been told and put them in a book. They called it Chicken Soup for the Soul because they wanted it to provide comfort, just like their grandmothers’ cooking.
They took the book to New York, hoping to sell it to one of the big publishers, but every single one turned them down. The project appeared to have stalled until they met Peter Vegso. Peter read some of the stories and loved them, so he decided to give the book a chance, becoming Chicken Soup for the Soul founding publisher.
Chicken Soup for the Soul turned into one of the most popular and loved books ever published, selling 11 million copies around the world. Today, we’ve published more than 250 books and Chicken Soup for the Soul has become the best-selling trade paperback book series of all time.
People have connected with Chicken Soup for the Soul books deeply. Years ago, we started getting letters from readers asking for more, not just more books, but other things, too. Jack and Mark recognized that Chicken Soup for the Soul had grown into something much bigger than the book series they had created. So, in 2008, William Rouhana, Amy Newmark and Robert Jacobs bought Chicken Soup for the Soul from them. Today, we have a line of comfort foods, including healthy and balanced pet foods. We’re online now with our forums, apps and a YouTube channel. We’re working hard on a new Chicken Soup for the Soul TV show and a movie. Meanwhile, we are still collecting stories from our readers and the public, just like we’ve done since the beginning. We have new books coming out almost every month. We’re always looking for ways to share happiness, inspiration and wellness through everything we do.
【1】The first Chicken Soup for the Soul ________.
A. was published by Peter Vegso
B. was Jack and Mark’s own experiences
C. encouraged people to be speakers
D. told stories that happened in kitchens
【2】The underlined word “stalled” in paragraph 2 means “________”.
A. stopped making money
B. stopped following the original plan
C. stopped achieving progress
D. stopped attracting the attention of big publishers
【3】Jack and Mark sold Chicken Soup for the Soul because ________.
A. they lost interest in it
B. it deserved expansion
C. readers got tired of the series
D. it could be sold at a high price
【4】What’s the text mainly about?
A. The popularity of Chicken Soup for the Soul.
B. Publishing in different periods.
C. The importance of readers’ support.
D. The history of Chicken Soup for the Soul.

【题目】The Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, California is one of the world's most beautiful bridges. It is also one of the most visited places in the world. Vehicles cross the bridge an average of 41 million times each year. More than 1,800 hundred million vehicles have used the bridge since it opened more than 70 years ago.
The bridge was painted “International Orange” because that color went well with the natural surroundings. The color also is easier to see in the heavy fog that often covers the area. But the Golden Gate Bridge was not named for its orange color. It was named for the body of water that it crosses,the Golden Gate Strait.
The Golden Gate Strait is the entrance to the San Francisco Bay from the Pacific Ocean. The Golden Gate Bridge links the city of San Francisco with Marin County, California.
Planning for the bridge began in the 1920s when the area around San Francisco was growing. People living in the area needed another way to get to the city besides small ferries.
Joseph Strauss was the chief engineer for the project. Work began in 1934. Mr.Strauss demanded the strongest safy protections in the history of bridge building. These included the first use of “hard hats” to protect the workers' heads and special glasses to protect their eyes.
A special safety net was suspended(挂) under the bridge. This net saved the lives of 19 men during the construction. However, 11 other workers were killed when they fell from the bridge through the net. Still, this was a new safety record for the time.
The Golden Gate Bridge opened in 1937. It extends 1,280 meters across the water. The total length is 2,737 meters. It was the largest suspension bridge in the world until 1964.That is when the Verrazano Narrows Bridge opened in New York City. Today, the Golden Gate Bridge is the ninth longest suspension bridge in the world.
【1】The Golden Gate Bridge was named after ________.
A.the local climate
B.the color of a paint
C.the strait it crosses
D.its natural surroundings
【2】The purpose of suspending a special safety net is to ________.
A.protect the environment
B.make construction easier
C.prevent workers from falling
D.save building materials from falling
【3】What do we know about Joseph Strauss?
A.He attached importance to the workers' safety.
B.His safety measures were not of practical value.
C.He built the first suspension bridge in the world.
D.He demanded strong measures to ensure the safety of the bridge.
【4】The passage is written to ________.
A.invite readers to San Francisco
B.introduce the Golden Gate Bridge
C.describe how the Golden Gate Bridge was built
D.tell the story of an engineer called Joseph Strauss
