It’s 5:00 in the morning when the alarm rings in my ears.I roll out of bed and walk blindly through the dark into the bathroom.I turn on the light and put on my glasses.The house is still as I walk downstairs while my husband and three kids sleep peacefully.Usually I go for a long run,but today I choose my favorite exercise DVD insanity.Sweat pours down my face and into my eyes.My heart races as I face my body to finish each movement.As I near the end of the exercise,I feel extremely tired,but a smile is of my face.It’s a smile because the DVD is over,but a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit.

Some people enjoy shopping,smoking,food,work,or even chocolate.But I need exercise to get through each day.Some shake heads when they see me run through the town.Others get hurt when I refuse to try just one bite of their grandmother’s chocolate cake.They raise their eyebrows,surprised by my “no thank you,” or by my choice to have a salad.Over the years,I have learned it’s okay to just say “no.” I shouldn’t feel sorry for refusing food that I don’t want to eat.

So what drives me to roll out of bed at 5:00 a.m.?What gives me the reason to just say to ice cream?Commitment.A commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily anxiety,increases self–confidence and energy,extends life and above all improves my body shape.This is the point where a smile appears on my face as I look at myself in the mirror or try on my favorite pair of jeans that now fit just right.It’s through commitment and sweat that I can make a difference within myself inside and out.

My color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.

Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.

When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my first, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the sit is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.

1. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?

A. He got an older model than he had expected.

B. He couldn’t return it when it was broken.

C. He could have bought it at a lower price.

D. He failed to find any movie shows on it.

2. Which of the following an best replace the phrase “signed off” in paragraph 1?

A. ended all their programs B. provided fewer channels

C. changed to commercials D. showed all-night movies

3. How did the author finally get this TV set working again?

A. By shaking and hitting it B. By turning it on and off

C. By switching channels D. By having it repaired

4. How does the author sound when telling the story?

A. Curious B. Anxious

C. Cautious D. Humorous

If You Get In, Make College Count

As tuition costs rise, with post-undergraduate (本科毕业后) jobs difficult to find, is higher education worth the cost?

Here is an unfortunate truth: For far too many incoming freshmen, college-any college-is not worth it. Year after year, students fail to get the full value of their tuition.

Many critics blame this cost/value problem on the universities, though each critic might point to a different reason: teachers always think of difficult research, the high costs of athletics, or the popularity of majors that are supposedly not suited to the new job market, to name some of their favorites.

But these are symptoms and not the illness itself. In our experience, the source of the wasted university experience begins with the student. Too often, students make bad choices or, frankly, just not enough great choices.

Too often we meet students who are so exhausted by the business of getting into college that they don’t work hard once they arrive-one of the most common wastes of time and tuition. A poorly constructed transcript (成绩单) can be destructive to a student’s education. Failure to engage and build professional working relationships with professors in office hours (which may lead to continued study, internships and more) also hurts the student’s experience.

Another mistake is failing to make use of the many support networks on today’s college campuses. It’s almost embarrassing how many good offerings are rolled into each tuition dollar, but most students don’t know they exist.

Another common point of failure is filling the schedule with too many extracurricular activities as students once did in high school, rather than getting intensely involved in one or two at most. The same can be said of overburdened course loads.

The final great failure we frequently see is the approach students (and their parents) take to selecting a major and accurately seeing its impact on a future career. University systems are not vocational schools. While critics nowadays complain about the attraction of useless majors — and some do exist — more frequently we see too many students pursue a course of study that is not their strength, simply because it seems to have obvious connections to a potential job after graduation.

Rather than perform poorly in a “practical” major and be of little interest as a future job candidate, we say it is better to major in a subject where a student would do well and master the tools of communication and analysis. Students who choose a unique major should complement (使更具有吸引力) that with some well-chosen skill courses, internships and other co-curricular activities that help them with career opportunities after college.

So, is college worth it? It can be. Studies show that college graduates have many advantages — material, social and emotional — that can lead to greater success later in life.

To get the full value out of college, students must be as diligent and creative about getting out of college as they were about getting in. After all, the most beautiful, Olympic saltwater pool does you no good if you don’t know how to swim.

Introduction

Students in college are 1. to get the full value of the constantly rising tuition. Critics hold that the universities are responsible for the problem, but actually it is students themselves that are to 2. .

Students’

mistakes

● Students tend to stop working hard after3. to college.

● Students fail to take advantage of the 4. that colleges provide.

●5. in too many extracurricular activities makes students overburdened with course loads

● Students can’t adopt a correct6. to select a major and accurately see its future potential.

Author’s advice

● Take personal 7. and strength into account.

● Learn the skills of communication and analysis.

● Choose some skill courses, internships and other co-curricular activities to 8. future career chances.

● Most importantly, 9. and creativity.

10.

Students, and only students themselves, can get the best out of college, as long as they learn the skills to swim in the beautiful pool of college.

All of us know the old saying “Practice make perfect.” It tells us unless we want to realize our aim, we should practise and one day we will make it.It’s easy to understand.Once I wanted to learn swimming. At first I found difficult to control my body. I just sank into the water. I feel very frightened. Then I watched others who were good at them and asked them the key to succeed. I went to the swimming pool every day, learned from them and practiced. A day, when my friend pushed me into the swimming pool, I sudden found that I could swim. How exciting I was! Now I can swim much more better than before.
