According to statistics published by the University of Scranton，about 45 percent of Americans usually make New Year’s resolutions------and the most popular resolution is losing weight. Of those who make resolutions，a mere 8 percent achieve them.
___1.___ Are we just setting ourselves up for failure? Learn how to make realistic resolutions and how to overcome the roadblocks along the way.
Setting a resolution to lose pounds isn’t a goal that’s achievable now. It may be a good long-term goal. ___2.___ Registered dietitian Elisa Zied says”… to be real when you make a resolution. It’s okay to shoot for the stars like making a resolution，but why not set a smaller goal and train smart?”
The same concept applies to weight loss. ___3.___ These goals should help develop healthy habits that will finally help achieve your long-term resolution.
Notice that these goals are simple and achievable. “Instead of going from zero to 60，from never going to the gym to going four to five times a week，why not start with three days a week，get consistent and build from there，” Zied says. Set yourself up for success and map out your course by making appointments with yourself to be active. ___4.___
You also need to be aware of your current exercise and eating habits to make achievable goals. Keeping a diary of your food and exercise habits can help. Record everything you eat and drink for three to five days and review it. ___5.___For example，if you notice a tendency to snack on unhealthy fare，set a goal to eat a fruit or vegetable with each snack. Building on these smaller goals over time can help you achieve your long-term goal.
A． So why do so many of us fail to achieve our goals?
B． Once you notice your not-so-good habits，start fixing them.
C． Set between one to three weekly goals that you want to achieve.
D． Resolutions usually involve a commitment to sticking to your goals.
E． However，in order to reach it，you need to take baby steps to get it down.
F． If you treat your goals like set appointment，you’re more likely to achieve them.
G． Losing weight，as well as getting a better job，is among the most popular resolutions for adults.

So you think you know your dog. But how well does your dog know you? She probably recognizes you when she sees you. But can a dog tell by simply looking at you whether you have a happy or an angry expression on your face? Researchers in Austria have taught pet dogs to know the difference.
Dogs are very mindful of sound. When dog owners shout or speak in a strong, harsh(刺耳的) voice, dogs often act guilty and quietly move away from the area. Researchers have found that dogs can look at our faces, and tell the difference between a smile and a frown. The animals were able to recognize a look of approval from one of disapproval.
Researchers performed a series of experiments. They taught dogs to recognize facial expressions. They showed the dogs two pictures of either the upper of lower half of a person’s face. On one picture, the person looked happy. The other appeared angry. The dogs were then shown images of the eyes or mouths of people they had never seen before. They were also shown the left half of the faces used in training. Once the dogs learned to recognize which image was happy or angry, they could easily identify the same expressions in pictures of any face.
Corsin Muller, who led the study, says future studies will try to show whether dogs can learn the meaning of facial expressions—for example, whether a frown shows that someone is angry. “What we can say with our study is that they can tell these ones are different. But what we cannot be sure of at this point is what exact meaning they are associating with these different expressions.”
“Of course it seems likely that they would associate (联系)some positive meanings with the smiley face and they would associate some rather negative meanings with the angry face. But what exactly they are associating with these expressions we cannot know at this point.” Corsin says.
1.The passage tells us mainly about _____________.
A. how dogs communicate with each other
B. What are the best ways to train our dogs
C. Why it’s necessary to know our pet dogs well
D. whether dogs can recognize our facial expressions
2.We know from the second paragraph that a dog_____________.
A. pays little attention to its owner’s looks
B. has to be trained to recognize our voices
C. is very sensitive to its owner’s voices
D. will feel guilty if their owner frowns
3.According to Corsin Muller, it’s been proven that dogs know_____________.
A. the exact meaning of a frown
B. a frown is an angry expression
C. human looks carry different meanings
D. a smiley face may have negative meanings
4.In which part of a website does the text probably appear?
A. Technology. B. Education.
C. Language. D. Economics.

On a stormy day last August, Tim heard some shouting．Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.
Two 12-year-old boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to search a football．Once they’d rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into open water．The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore．But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control.
Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves.
“Everything went quiet in my head,” Tim recalls（回忆）．“I’m trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in a straight line.”
Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water．Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head to judge his progress．“At one point, I considered turning back,” he says．“I wondered if I was putting my life at risk.” After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close enough to yell to the boys, “Take down the umbrella! Let’s aim for the pier（码头）,” Jack said．Tim turned the boat toward it．Soon afterward, waves crashed over the boat, and it began to sink．“Can you guys swim?” he cried．“A little bit,” the boys said.
Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer and faster for him to pull the boys toward the pier．Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs．Tim swam toward land as water washed over the boys’ faces.

Listening to music an help me focus better. Since I discovered it two years ago, I’ve used music to get through boring work or to focus creatively. I’ve found that it can make even the dullest jobs enjoyable and help clear mental blocks to creativity.
I first noticed the good effects of music while playing video games. It was a few days before Christmas in 2012 and I was playing online video games. My parents had just given me a new MP3, so I decided to listen to music through the headphones while I played. After a few minutes I noticed a great change in my style of play. I was playing more naturally. The music relaxed me, and, to a certain extent, distracted me from the game, allowing my subconscious（潜意识的）talent to come through. The music also helped me block out the outside world. With those headphones on I was like a machine, moving from one task to the next without unnecessary thoughts or actions.
Music can also have a great effect on mood, if I’m in a bad mood at work, I’ll listen to some of Bob Marley’s and get down to business. It always takes my mind off what I’m doing and makes me a happier person. The same is true of classic rock. One summer, I did a boring job collecting bottle openers by hand. Without a radio playing classic rock in the background, I would have hated life.
Listening to music with relaxing rhythms and a positive message helps you forget your work and think happy thoughts. But the results you see will depend heavily on your personal tastes. Experiment with the types of music you listen to during certain tasks. By trial and error you’ll finally discover your best choice. I’m always looking for new concentration aids, so I’d love to know what type of music works best for me.
1.We can infer that the passage was written in .
A. 2010 B. 2012 C. 2013 D. 2014
2.The author first discovered the effects of music .
A. from his parents B. by chance
C. at work D. when he was a child
3.The author mentions the experience of collecting bottle openers in Paragraph 3 to .

B. prove that music affects mood

D. tell us bad mood can affect work
4.In order to get the greatest effect of music, you are advised to .
A. listen to some of Bob Marley’s
B. only choose relaxing music
