         At the University of Califomia, my students and I studied more than 2 000 years of self-change methods
    and also reviewed the scientific research works on that. Among all the methods, three should be specially
    mentioned: they're useful, simple and easy to leam. What's more, people who have made successful changes in
    their lives often depended on one or more of these methods.
         To get yourself started in a new direction, try the Three M's:
         Modify Your Environment. People who have never tried this are surprised by the large result it often had.
    One of my students got herself bicycling every day simply by putting her bicycle in her doorway before she
    left for schools. When she retumed home, that was the first thing she saw, and that's all she needed to start
    cycling away. The power of rearranging (重新布置) one's space has been well shown in studies since it was
    first reported in the 1960s. Professor Israel Goldiamond taught this method to patients with different personal
    problems. For example, a young woman who had difficulty studying made great improvement when she got a
    better desk lamp and moved her desk away from her bed. To change yourself, change your world.
        Monitor Your Behavior. I've been reading research studies on self-monitoring for 20 years, and I've tried
    some myself. To be honest, I still don't fully understand why this method works, but it does, and surprisingly
    well for most people. The fact is, if you monitor what you do, you'll probably do better. Weigh yourself often
    and you may well start to lose weight. Keep a record of what you eat and you'll probably start eating more
    wisely. Use tiny objects. If you say "you know" too much, take a golf counter, and push down the counter
    whenever you catch yourself saying "you know". I'll be sure you say it less often in just a few days. Or you
    can put a small piece of paper in your pocket each time you say "you know". The result is the same: you
    become more sensible about what you're doing, and that makes you do better.
        Make Promises. When you make a promise to another person, you've arranged for a reward(奖赏) if you
    keep it and a punishment if you don't.lt puts some pressure (压力) on you, and that's often just what you need.
        For example, if you want to exercise more, arrange to do it with a friend. If you don't, your friend will get
    angry, and that may be just the ticket to keeping you on time.
    1. What does the underlined word "Modify" mean?
    A. Protect.
    B.Improve.
    C.Create.
    D.Arrange.
    2. What is the writer's purpose?
    A.To tell the importance of self-change.
    B.To present some successful changes.
    C.To show the study results of self-change methods.
    D.To encourage people to change their bad habits.
    3. Based on the passage, which can help you stop playing computer games too often?
    A.Study hard and give away your computer.
    B.Keep a record of what you've achieved.
    C.List the hours spent on computer games.
    D.Talk with your friends about your pressure.

         When I crossed a small road on my first day in Kolkata, I was surprised because I heard a bell-not a horn (喇叭),  It was a tiny man pulling a rickshaw, He stopped and picked up two children from the front door of their house and pulled them to school. For many people, the rickshaw in Kolkata has many advantages, When the traffic is bad, rickshaws find a way through the traffic. If your miss your bus and there aren't any taxis, you can always find a rickshaw in Kolkata. Rickshaws are from your house to the market and waits for you. Then he loads (装载)all your things, drops you off outside your home and helps you unload, No other type of public transport offers this kind of service.

        From June to September, Kolkata gets heavy rain. Sometimes it rains for 48 hours without a break. In some parts of the city, the roads flood (水淹), and anything with an engine(发动机) is useless, But the rickshaw drivers never stop working, even with water all around them.

        But not everyone thinks rickshaws are a good thing. The local government want to ban rickshaws. They believe it is wrong for one man to pull another person when there is modern transport in the city. However, there is a problem with this plan. Many of the rickshaw drivers come from the countryside. The only job they can find in Kolkata is pulling a rickshaw, If the city bans rickshaws, these men won't have a job. So for the moment, the people of Kolkata still go by rickshaw.

      6What can we learn from the passage?

        A. The rickshaws in Kolkata have loud horns.

        B. The rickshaw is still a part of public transport in Kolkata.

        C. The local government offer many other jobs to the rickshaw driven.

    D. The people in Kolkata are supposed to take rickshaws instead of cars.
