    Choosing the right job is probably one of the most important decisions we have to make in life, and it is frequently one of the hardest decisions we have to make. One important question that you might ask yourself is: “How do I get a good job?” 1. There are people who can answer an insignificant advertisement in the local paper and land the best job in the world; others write to all sorts of places all over the country, and never seem to get a reply at all. Still others believe that the in person, door-to-door approach is by far the best way to get a job; and then there are those who, through no active decision of their own, just seem to be in the right place at the right time. 2. He used to spend a lot of his free time down by the sea watching the tall ships, but never thinking that he might one day sail one of them. His father was a farmer, and being a sailor could never be anything for the boy but an idle dream. One day, on his usual wandering, he heard the captain of the ship complaining that he could not sail because one member of his crew was sick. Without stopping to think, the lad(少年) offered to take his place. 3. .

    4. If the lad had gone home to ponder（考虑）his decision for a week, he may have missed his chance. It is one thing to be offered an opportunity; it is another to take it and use it well. Sometimes we hear stories about people who break all the rules and still seem to land plum jobs（美差）. When you go for a job interview or fill out an application, you are expected to say nice things about the company to which you are applying. 5. And within a year this person had become general manger of the company.

    A．This story also illustrates the importance of seizing an opportunity when it presents itself.

    B．People find jobs in an infinite number of ways.

    C．It’s almost impossible to find a good job by answering advertisement in newspapers.

    D．Take for example the young man who wanted to be a sailor.

    E．But there was one person who landed an excellent job by telling the interviewer all the company’s faults.

    F．He spent the rest of his life happily sailing the ships he had always loved.

    G．It is very important to seize an opportunity when it presents itself.

    Glastonbury Festival, one of the pioneer festivals, is famous not only for its amazing bands, but also for its wonderful performances in many fields surrounding (围绕) the stages. It attracts over 130,000 people every year, who join in the three-day party to celebrate the summer solstice, the longest day of the year.

    Glastonbury Festival has been held on Worthy Farm in Somerset since 1970. This year, all sorts of singers and bands were there, from the likes of Beyoncé, Jessie J, to my favorite — Paolo Nutini, who I really wish I could have met!

    We drove straight in to one of the muddiest (泥泞的) Glastonbury Festivals ever! We came to our camp site, carrying enough clothes for a weekend of extreme weather conditions, and spent an hour or so putting up the tent. On the second day it began to rain and didn’t stop for the rest of the day. We sat in the tent waiting for it to stop, and after several hours we realized that it wouldn’t. When the need for food became too strong we put on boots and raincoats and made our way across many muddy fields.

    There is something for everyone at the festival — my favourite place is the Circus Field, which is full of interactive (互动的) performances. Also, I love the Kidz Field, where famous CBBC stars perform, and where you can get your face painted then run around on a climbing frame (框架) with dragons.

    1.According to the text, Glastonbury Festival is actually a _____.

    A. harvest festival

    B. music festival

    C. film festival

    D. flower festival

    2.What attracted the author most at this year’s festival?

    A. Paolo Nutini.

    B. CBBC stars.

    C. The food sold in the festival.

    D. The performance in the Circus Field.

    3.Which of the following about Glastonbury Festival is NOT true?

    A. It started in 1970.

    B. It lasts three days.

    C. It is usually held on rainy days.

    D. It celebrates the longest day of the year.

    As the new semester begins, millions of college students across the country are trying hard to remember how best to write a paper or, more likely, how best to delay that paper.

    Procrastination is the thief of time and a lot of students suffer form it. They can spend whole days in the library doing nothing but staring into space, eating snacks, surfing the Internet, watching videos and looking at other students sitting around them, who, most likely are doing nothing either.

    Paralyzed (使失去活力) by their habit to procrastinate, they write micro blogs about their fears, asking their online friends if they sometimes have the same issue. But this does nothing to break the spell (魔咒).

    According to a recent report, 95 percent of us procrastinate at some point and 20 percent of the world’s population are always procrastinating. The figures are disappointing. Procrastinators are less wealthy, less healthy and less happy than those who don’t delay. Procrastinators like to find excuses to justify their behavior, but BBC columnist Rowan Pelling says they are all wrong.

    Many procrastinators tell themselves they are perfectionists who work best under pressure. Pelling says this is non sense, as work done at the last minute is more likely to have mistakes than work done on time. The behavior of procrastinators often makes them feel ashamed, inconveniences others and annoys loved ones.

    Pelling also points out that procrastination feels particularly delinquent（过失的） in a society that thinks of speedy action as admirable, and, at times, even as a moral good.

    Fortunately, social scientists have thrown their weight behind efforts to understand this behavioral mistake and offer strategies to control it. Piers Steel, a Canadian social scientist and author of The Procrastination Equation, believes human is “designed” to procrastinate. Nevertheless, he suggests a couple of good ways to get through the task at hand.

    1.Which behavior belongs to procrastination?

    A. Never dream away the time.

    B. Always complete the tasks ahead of time.

    C. Never put off till tomorrow what should be done today.

    D. Always wait to work until the “good mood” or “good time”.

    2.According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?

    A. Procrastination makes people waste their time.

    B. Speedy action is considered as a moral standard in the society.

    C. procrastinators usually complete their tasks perfectly.

    D. Procrastination is common among people.

    3.What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?

    A. Ways to handle the study pressures.

    B. Introduction to the book The Procrastination Equation.

    C. More examples to illustrate procrastination

    D. Measures to deal with procrastination.

    “The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change.” Have no regrets. The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets.”

    She concluded her speech by courageously singing “The Song of Rose.” She challenged each of us study the lyrics(歌词) and live them out in our daily lives.
