There was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care .To water his flowers, he used two buckets(水桶) .One was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated one，which had seen many years of service, but was now past its best.
Every morning, the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path, one on each side, to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出). The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked (漏出) along the path.
Sometimes the new bucket would say,“ See how capable I am ! How good it is that the gardener has me to water the flowers every day! I don't know why he still bothers with you. What a waste of space you are!”
And all that the old bucket could say was. “ I know I am not very useful, but I can only do my best. I am happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me, at least.”
One day, the gardener heard that kind of conversation .After watering the flowers as usual, he said , “You both have done your work very well .Now I am going to carry you back .I want you to look carefully along the path.”
Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed, on the side where the new bucket was carried, there was just bare（光秃秃的）earth; on the other side where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way to the garden.
1.What was the old bucket ashamed of?
A. His past. B. His aging.
C. His manner. D. His leaking.
2.What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?
A. dirty B. dark
C. worn-out D. ordinary-looking.
3.The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to _________.
A. take pity on the old one
B. laugh at the old one
C. show off its beautiful looks
D. praise the gardener’s kindness
4.Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?
A. Because it was used to keep a balance
B. Because it stayed in its best condition
C. Because it had its own function
D. Because it was taken as a treasure

We all know that eating junk food can make us fat. However, a new study suggests that it can do more than that – it can also make us lazy, reported CBS News.
In the study, researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, US divided 32 female rats into two groups. The first group was fed a diet of healthy food such as corn and fish, while the second was given a diet of highly processed (加工的) food rich in sugar, namely “junk food”.
Within three months, the rats in the second group were already much fatter than those on the healthy diet. And when researchers trained the rats to do simple tasks, they found even more differences between the two groups rather than weight.
During the task – pushing a lever (杠杆) to receive a reward of sugar water – the rats on the junk food diet were found to be less willing to move, and they took longer breaks between each push than the lean rats did.
“It is as if the rat is thinking ‘This is too much work’,” Aaron Blaisdell, leader of the study, told the Los Angeles Times.
But what about the possibility that the fat rats were less passionate about getting sugar water because they were already eating lots of sugar in their daily diet? That’s why researchers repeated the tests by rewarding fat rats with plain water when they were extremely thirsty. However, the results came out just the same.
According to researchers, these differences suggest that junk food changed the chemistry in the rats’ brains.
The experiment didn’t end there. After six months, the rats’ diets were switched, and the overweight rats were given a healthy diet for nine days. However, this change didn’t help reduce their weight or improve their ability to perform tasks, which means the effects of their junk food diet persisted (持续存在). “There’s no quick fix,” said Blaisdell.
For a long time, we’ve believed that people become fat because they are lazy. But this study has proven the opposite to be true as well, which indicates that laziness and obesity are a “vicious cycle (恶性循环)”.
So, if you constantly feel tired, lacking any urge to get up from your chair, it could be that you’ve been studying too hard. But you should also pay attention to your diet.
1.During the first three months of the experiment by researchers at the University of California, ______.
A. rats from the healthy diet group ate nothing but corn and fish
B. rats on the junk food diet ate more than those on healthy diet
C. rats on the healthy food diet performed better at simple tasks than those on the junk food diet
D. rats on the junk food diet seemed uninterested in sugary food
2.The researchers rewarded thirsty rats with plain water in the lever test to ______.
A. help them control their weight
B. test whether fat rats lost interest in the test because they had taken enough sugar
C. change the diet habits of fat rats
D. find out the influence of sugar on rats’ brains
3. The underlined word “there” refers to ______.
A. after the rats on the junk food diet had worked hard to get sugar water
B. after the type of food rats prefer had been identified
C. after a quick cure for obesity had been found
D. after the fact that fatter rats are lazier than lean rats had been found
4.We can conclude from the article that ______.
A. fat people are usually lazier than lean people
B. people should switch between different types of diets to keep healthy
C. being overweight and being lazy can feed into each other
D. laziness is the main cause of weight problems
5.Which of the following is Not Right according to the passage?
A. Eating junk food can make us fat.
B. Researchers got different results after repeated the tests to fat rats.
C. For a long time, we’ve believed that people become fat because they are lazy.
D. If you constantly feel tired or study too hard, you need to pay attention to your diet.

A new study supports the view that jobs aren't simply a love-at-first-sight deal. Rather, they say that achieving passion for your work is something you can develop over time.
Unlike the main way of thinking that you'Il only achieve passion for your work through finding the right fit with a line of work - what the researchers call "fit theory" , the researchers say you can learn to love your job and find meaning in it gradually(“developing theory").
We probably hear and think a l.t more about "fit theory" than “developing theory" because we've become used to it. "Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work," said Steve Jobs. “And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'II know when you find it. "
Chen and colleagues examined some students' career attitudes and expectations with regard to "fit theory"and "developing theory". "People can achieve similar levels of passion at work by accepting either the fit or develo-ping theory. The key difference lies in how these results are reached : fit theorists(理论家) tend to self-select into lines of work that fit them from the start, while developing theorists grow into that fit over time. "
Fit theorists tend to value enjoyment at the expense of good pay, while developing theorists are willing to let enjoyment take a back seat to other goals, safe in the knowledge that they'll grow into the role and find enjoyment over time.
Everyone has moments of being bored with their work,but it's important to keep your thoughts focused on the bigger picture, your Iong-term goals , and whv you took the role in the first place.
1.According to the "fit theory" , a person will_________.
A. treat his job as a great deal
B. try to seek passion for a job
C. find the meaning in his job slowly
D. learn to achieve his dream gradually
2.The writer quoted Steve Jobs' speech to prove____________.
A. the romantic idea of "fit theory"
B. the difficulty of finding passion for jobs
C. the great pursuit of satisfying jobs
D. the influence of "fit theory" on the business
3.If you hate your job , you are advised to___________.
A. consider your situation as a whole
B. try other new jobs as soon as possible
C. consider your role in your work first
D. start your work from the beginning again
4.What might be the best title for the passage?
A. You Will Have Passion for Your Work
B. You Can Learn to Love Your Job
C. You Will Finally Achieve Your Job Goal
D. You Can Get Enjoyment from Your Work
