    Have you ever thought of quitting your job when you feel exhausted? Maybe most of you would say “yes”. After a particularly busy period at work, I decided to get away from it all by going on a hike in the mountains in southern France.

    Before I left, I read an interesting story in a magazine. It read, “Once, while I was riding on a crowded bus, the man sitting next to me threw his cell phone out of the window when his phone rang. I was surprised. He looked at me, shrugged (耸耸肩) and looked away. I had no idea whether it was his or stolen or whether he even knew what a cell phone was or not, but he clearly wanted to be free of it, because it clearly troubled him.”

    Billions of people across the world use cell phones. Though cell phones are a wonderful way for communication, they often do the exact opposite. Using cell phones can increase stress within families and friends.

    So when I recently returned home, I got rid of my cell phone. Now I go outside without taking my phone with me. I’ve noticed things in my neighborhood I never noticed before, such as gardens. I’ve met new people, started conversations with neighbors I didn’t speak to before and talked with some of my friends face to face instead of chatting over the phone.

    Instead of keeping me off from the world, stopping using my cell phone has helped me get even closer to my family and friends.

    1.According to the story, the man on the bus threw away his cell phone because ________.

    A. it didn’t work properly

    B. it was stolen from someone else

    C. he didn’t like the phone’s style

    D. he didn’t want to be bothered by it

    2.We can learn from the passage that cell phones ________.

    A. are too expensive for many people

    B. are of no use to the author

    C. can also get people into trouble

    D. can make life more interesting

    3.What can we learn about the author?

    A. He wants to own a garden now.

    B. He always chatted with his neighbors.

    C. He used to take his cell phone when going outside.

    D. He once threw away his cell phone.

    4.The main purpose of the passage is to ________.

    A. tell us not to let cell phones control our lives

    B. encourage others to hike with him in France

    C. share his experiences in France with us

    D.teach us how to get along with neighbors

    The Science of Risk-Seeking

    Sometimes we decide that a little unnecessary danger is worth it because when we weigh the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth taking. 1. Some of us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us. Why? Experts say it may have to do with how our brains work.

    The reason why any of us take any risks at all might have to do with early humans. Risk-takers were better at hunting, fighting, or exploring. 2. As the quality of risk-taking was passed from one generation to the next, humans ended up with a sense of adventure and a tolerance for risk.

    So why aren’t we all jumping out of airplanes then? Well, even 200, 000 years ago, too much risk-taking could get one killed. A few daring survived, though, along with a few stay-in-the-cave types. As a result, humans developed a range of character types that still exists today. So maybe you love car racing, or maybe you hate it. 3.

    No matter where you are on the risk-seeking range, scientists say that your willingness to take risks increases during your teenage years. 4. To help you do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experiences. New experiences often mean taking some risks, so your brain raises your tolerance for risk as well.

    ___5. For the risk-seekers, a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active.

    As experts continue to study the science of risk-seeking, we’ll continue to hit the mountains, the waves or the shallow end of the pool.

    A. It all depends on your character

    B. Those are the risks you should jump to take.

    C. Being better at those things meant a greater chance of survival.

    D. Thus, these well-equipped people survived because they were the fittest.

    E. This is when you start to move away from your family and into the bigger world.

    F. However, we are not all using the same reference standard to weigh risks and rewards.

    G. New brain research suggests our brains work differently when we face a nervous situation.

    I am a good mother to three children. I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.

    I no longer consider myself the center of the universe. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh. I am a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows (誓约) mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends. And they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.

    So here’s what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion, the bigger paycheck, the larger house.

    Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who love you. And remember that love is not leisure, it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an email. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.

    It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours and our minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of to live. I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I could choose, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all.

    I learned to love the journey, not the destination, I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally. And I tried to do that, in part, by telling others what I had learned.

    By telling them this: Read in the backyard with the sun on your face, Learn to be happy, and think of life as a deadly illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion as it ought to be lived.

    1.The best title of this passage probably is “________”.

    A. Love your friendsB. Live a real life

    C. Don’t waste timeD. Be a good mother and wife

    2.How did the author form her view of life?

    A. Through social experience.

    B. By learning from her friends.

    C. Through an unfortunate experience.

    D. From her children and husband.

    3.By the underlined sentence “It is so easy to exist instead of to live” in the fifth paragraph, the author really means that people tend to ________.

    A. make a living rather than live a real life

    B. work rather than enjoy life

    C. waste a lot in life

    D. forget the most important lessons in life
