【题目】Most students have had an experience of putting off things that must be done before a certain time. Here are some ways to help you reduce this age-old practice.

1

In order to achieve a particular result, you should constantly set and update goals. It can be beneficial to mark all deadlines in a planner and think about how much time you need to meet them all. What is more, make a daily schedule in order to reach necessary goals before going to bed.

2

Sometimes you may consider some work or class pointless and not useful to your further studies. However, when these thoughts arise, remind yourself what the final goal of your schooling is. Remind yourself why you wanted to go to school and take this program in the first place.

3

The most common things that take your attention away are those found on the Internet-social media sites, and videos. If you do not need the Internet to do your work, turn it off so that you are not receiving notices while completing your work.

Have something to look forward to.

Being productive for all hours of every day does not work, so plan time to go out with friends or do something relaxing. This way, while you are working, you can keep in mind that once you are finished your work you can go out and not worry about your assignments.

A. Reward yourself.

B. Turn off the Internet.

C. Set goals.

D. Remind yourself of what you are doing.

【题目】Cyclist Alain Such has been dropped from the Ingotel cycling team for two years after a positive drug test at the Institute of drug Free Sport. “ I was flabbergasted.” Said Didier Garcia, from Team Ingotel. “Alain joined our team last month and we had no idea that he was being examined.”

It’s a story that has become more and more familiar in recent years. Dr. Mohammad Farnood, a leading sports scientist from Cairo, Egypt, said, “ It is thought that some athletes will look for other ways to improve performance in addition to using drugs.”

However, it has not always been against the law. In the Olympics in 1904, Thomas Hicks won the marathon after using drugs in the middle of the race. In fact, the first one didn’t make him feel better for long, so he was given another and, as a result, he fell down soon after finishing and knew nothing. Another one may well have killed him.

Things are very different today. Some scientists are considering the possibilities of using genetic engineering to further develop athletes’ abilities. “If it works with no risk of discovering,” said Dr Farnood, “ then it’s likely to become common practice for athletes.”

Researchers are looking at the possibility of identifying “athletic” genes and correcting weak ones. Put into practice, this would make a person healthier and stronger. Once scientists understand what genes of top athletes look like , it might even become possible to identify “athletic” genes in young people, and then money could be spent on children who have the most promising genes.

“People are beginning to recognize that genetics can in many ways do good to our society, for example in saving lives and in creating better quality food for people.” Dr Farnood says. “ So, is it fair to use genetic engineering in sport? You could ask if it’s fair for some runners to use the latest scientifically developed footwear. The key question is whether it’s available to everyone.”

1What does the underlined word “ flabbergasted” in Paragraph 1 mean ?

A. Shy . B. Proud.

C. Excited. D. Surprised.

2What happened to Thomas Hicks in 1904 ?

A. He was badly hurt in training.

B. He broke the law when running in a race.

C. He took drugs and almost got killed.

D. He lost the match in the Olympic Games.

3Who may show the greatest concern about using genetic engineering in sport ?

A. Didier Garcia .

B. Thomas Hicks.

C. Cyclist Alain Such .

D. Dr Mohammad Farnood.

4What can we learn from Paragraph 5 and 6 ?

A. The possibility of identifying “athletic” genes has become available .

B. It’s not clear whether it is fair to use genetic engineering in sport.

C. The practice of using drugs in sport has a long history.

D. It’s dangerous to use drugs in sport.

【题目】根据短文内容的理解。选择正确答案。 One of the most successful singers of the twentieth century, Ella Fitzgerald has made several different styles of her own. She was born in Virginia but was brought up in an orphanage in Yonkers, New York. Chick Webb spotted her in an amateur competition when she was sixteen. He engaged her to sing with his band and when he died in 1939, she took over.
Unlike Bessie Smith, Ella Fitzgerald taught herself the sentimental music so popular in the 1930's — songs like "My Heart Belongs to Daddy"— and her recordings became best-sellers. During the 1940's she developed her own "scat singing" — a breathless, nonsense—syllable style—for songs like "Flying Home" and "Lady Be Good."
Ella Fitzgerald was the perfect musical partner for her friend, the trumpeter Louis Armstrong, matching him in warmth and artistry. "I just like music, period," she said. "To me, it's a story. There's only one thing better than singing……. It's more singing."
(1)What does the passage mainly discuss?
A.A comparison of Ella Fitzgerald and Bessie Smith.
B.The musical career of Ella Fitzgerald.
C.Ella Fitzgerald's early childhood.
D.Ella Fitzgerald's most recent recordings.
(2)The underlined word "spotted" means ________.
A.noticed
B.brought up
C.employed
D.recognized
(3)What does the passage imply about Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong?
A.They were the founders of "scat singing".
B.They played the same musical instruments.
C.They performed well together.

Everyone gets (disappoint) sometimes. I used to be always influenced by pressure and I was often in low spirits. But one day I meet a sentence in the Bible, “Do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself, let the day's own trouble be enough for the day.” suddenly occurred to me that (worry) about a problem doesn't help. Why not just give a big smile and face up to the trouble?”
Now every time I want to cry, I remind myself that (laugh) is better than tears and anger. I (deep) believe that there's something magical about a smile. A smile helps me recover confidence and gives me courage to move on.
Remember, whenever you're faced with a setback, difficulty you come across, all it takes is determination and you can feel happy again. Smile at life, it will shine on you.
