Are you simply moving through your day without fully living? I think many of us have done this. Everyone wants to fully live every day. 1. So I’ve decided to share with you some ways to help you enjoy every moment.
Sit in the morning. When you wake up, in the quiet of the morning, sit on the floor. I often use this opportunity to stretch (伸展).2.I also just sit, and focus on my breathing going in and out.
3. I like to take breaks from work, and go outside for a slow walk. Pay attention to your breathing, to everything around you, to the sounds and light of objects.
Read in silence. Find a quiet time, and a quiet place, and read a good novel. Have no television or computers on nearby. And just put yourself in the world of the novel. It might seem difficult to let your mind move from the present into the time of the novel, but it’s a great practice in focus. 4.
5. Each day, find someone you care about and be grateful for his existence. If you want, you can tell that person how thankful you are to him.
A. Walk slowly.
B. Work with focus.
C. Look at someone in a grateful way.
D. But this is easier said than done.
E. I feel every muscle in my body.
F. It’s a way of building something good into your life.
G. Also, I love a good novel more than almost anything else.

Most of the sandstorms that had swept China last year came from foreign land, a Chinese official in charge of desertification(荒漠化) control said on Monday. And the invasions(入侵)could partly explain the frequent sandstorms in the country in recent years despite its achievements in desertification control.
Since the start of last spring, the north and northwestern Chinese regions had been hit by 17 sandstorms, of which, a dozen came from foreign land.
Situated in the central Asia sandstorm region, one of the world’s four largest sandstorm sources, China also suffers from sandstorms from outside the country while being blamed as a sand source to northeast Asia. The other three major sources are in Africa, North America and Australia.
The land suffering from desertification has been decreasing by 7,585 square kilometres annually in China, and the area of sandy land has also been falling by 1,284 square kilometres a year.
The shrinkage(收缩)forms a clear contrast to the fact that the land suffering from desertification and sandy feature was added by 10,400 square kilometers and 3,436 square kilometers late last century, respectively.
Currently, the desertification land in China makes up 2.64 million square kilometres, accounting for 27.46 percent of the nation’s land, and its sandy land totals 1.74 million square kilometres, accounting for 18.1 percent of the country’s total.
1.What does the underlined word “decreasing” mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Going down. B. Going up.
C. Coming from. D. Taking up.
2.Where do most of the sandstorms in China come from?
A. The northwestern Chinese regions. B. The northern Chinese regions.
C. The western part of China. D. Foreign countries.
3.Which of the following is believed to be the sand source to northeast Asia?
A. Mongolia. B. Africa.
C. China. D. Australia.
4.What can we infer from this passage?
A. The land in China suffering from desertification has been increasing greatly.
B. China has made achievements in its own desertification control.
C. The desertification land makes up nearly half of China’s territory.
D. Little progress has been made in controlling desertification in China.

While music has value all by itself, researchers have long noticed that musicians also tend to be better at learning languages and show other improved reading and math abilities. Now a new study from the University of Washington by Christina Zhao shows that rhythm is an important bridge between music and speech as early as nine months of age.
Researchers randomly placed babies into two groups of 20 each, and each group played at the lab with their parents for a dozen 15-minute sessions over a month.
In one group, researchers played recordings of songs with a waltz rhythm and showed the parents how to help their babies tap out that 1-2-3 beat in time with the music on boy drums or with their feet. In the other group, children played with typical toys and no music.
The babies in the music group were better able to detect random mistakes in that rhythm when they heard it within two weeks of the last session. They also showed a stronger brain response to disruptions in the rhythm. For example, researchers would sometimes alter the timing of syllables(音节) by slightly shortening the middle sound of a word like bibbi to make it bibi—and the babies with music training were more likely to notice it.
In other words, music training not only improved the babies’ ability to notice when a musical rhythm skipped a beat, but also improved their ability to notice when the rhythms of speech changed unexpectedly, an important skill for learning to talk.
The study reflects Zhao’s personal experiences as a pianist who music in college, and as someone who speaks both Mandarin and English. She noticed that a lot of her fellow musicians were also good at learning other languages. “That really got me wondering how these two are related, “Zhao said.
1.What can we learn about the new study?
A. It included twenty babies.
B. The babies were grouped by age.
C. It was carried out in form of lab tests.
D. The two groups were offered different types of music.
2.According to the last paragraph, Christina Zhao ________.
A. will carry on with this study
B. is good at discovering hidden connections
C. is willing to share her personal experiences
D. began learning different languages during childhood
3.Which is the best title for the text?
A. Music Learners’ Advantages Over Language Learners
B. An Important Bridge Between Music and Babies
C. Researchers Prove Music’s Influence on Babies
D. Music Skills May Help Babies Learn Languages
