China is a country on the move—especially around its Lunar New Year holiday. This year, the holiday crush（客流量） promises to be even heavier than before.
Government officials estimate that Chinese people will take to the air, roads and railways 3.62 billion times over a 40-day period around the nation's most important holiday this year as people push their way home for family gatherings or to satisfy their new-found passion for travel.
Getting tickets to all those would-be travelers is a discounting challenge that annually tries patience. And it is the railway system that routinely is most unable to cope. Railways are the transport of choice for low-cost long-distance travel, and that's where the ticketing system routinely falls down.
Much of the criticism has, focused on the railway's online purchasing system, which has been unable to keep pace with the huge demand and also failed to stop scalpers（票贩子） from ending up with many of the hard-to-find tickets.
While insisting that online sales were the fairest way to get tickets for travelers, railway officials told reporters that the public need to be patient. Efforts were being made to provide online identity checks that would reduce the ticket scalping problems. While officials had little good news for rail passengers, they did manage to bring a few smiles to those traveling by car as the country's extremely expensive highway tolls （通行费） will be free of charge for the period of the official holiday.
1.Which of the following words can replace the underlined word "discounting" in Paragraph 3?
A. Promising.B. Discouraging.C. Pleasing.D. Rewarding.
2.According to the text, getting tickets ________ around the official holiday.
A. is just a piece of cake
B. is more costly
C. takes great effort
D. is convenient for travelers
3.We can learn from the text that ________ around the New Year holiday.
A. there will be 3. 62 billion people going home
B. the railway system will be facing more stress
C. people's complaint .focus on the failure of online purchase
D. not railways but cars are the best choices for traveling
4.Which of the following can best describe the author's attitude to the railway service?
A. Objective.B. Doubtful.C. SatisfiedD．Worried.

A young man named Ted received a high-priced car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Ted came out of his office, a street urchin (顽童) was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car, Ted?” he asked.
Ted answered, “Yes, my brother gave it for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it cost you nothing? Boy, I wish…” He hesitated(犹豫).
Of course Ted knew what he was going to wish for. He wished he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Ted greatly.
“I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.” Ted looked at the boy in surprise, and then said, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?” “Oh yes, I’d love that.”
After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, “Ted, would you mind driving in front of my house?”
Ted smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbours that he could ride home in a big car. But Ted was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are?” the boy asked.
He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Ted heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled (残疾) brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.
“There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it… Then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas window that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”

You’ve probably heard about sports coaches, fitness coaches, voice and music teachers, career counselors（咨询） psychiatrists (精神科医师) and other specialists who teach skills and help us cope with daily life.
But there’s a rapidly growing kind of professionals who do a little bit of everything. She or he is called a “ life coach”. People who are at the crossroads in their life, and corporations that want to give certain employees a career boost , are turning to them for help.
The idea that one person’s success story can change other people’s life for the better goes back at least to the 1930s. Dale Carneigie’s famous self-improvement program “ How to Win Friends and Influence People” came along soon thereafter.
But this new style of life coaches includes more than enthusiastic speakers or writers. They use their own experiences in business, sports, military service, or psychotherapy (心理疗法) to help others make critical life decisions. They often give their approaches a slogan, such as “energy coaching” or “fearless living” or “working yourself happy”.
Dave Lakhani in Boise, Idaho, for instance, works with salespeople to develop what he calls a “road map”. He says an ongoing relationship with a coach is like having a personal fitness trainer for one’s career and life outside work.
Lakhani’s Bold Approach coaching firm also donates some of its time to help people who are anything but successful---including battered (殴打) women and struggling single mothers.
But others in the so-called “helping professions” are not thrilled about the life-coaching movement. They say that anyone, trained or untrained, can call himself or herself a life coach, and that slick(华而不实的) promoters who mess with people’s lives can do more harm than good.
1.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Working Yourself Happy.
B. How to Cope with Daily Life with Life Coaches.
C. Life Coaches Help with Tough Decisions.
D. The Life-Coaching Movement.
2. What is a “life coach”?
A. A career counselor who teaches skills.
B. A psychiatrist who helps us deal with daily life.
C. A fitness coach who teaches us lessons.
D. A specialist who helps us make important life decisions.
3.The last paragraph is mainly about__________.
A. the introductions of life coaches
B. the disagreements of life coaches
C. the effects of life coaches
D. the experiences of life coaches

Do you still remember your favorite poem from high school or some other important periods in your life？Why is it that decades later it still stands out in your mind？Probably the main reason is that some aspects of that poem resonates(引起共鸣)with you．In the same way，you too as a school leader can touch the hearts of your staff and students．

Since schools are mainly about people and relationship，school leaders，like poets，are required to inspire and encourage the human heart．The use of poetry—or even of some techniques of poetry—in school leadership not only helps to improve communication，but also serves to meet the human need for inspiration．
