Even if you really enjoy your job, it’s still possibl
e to battle boredom as you work. You may not be able to make big changes—or change your job—but you can make small adjustments to your routine that can make every day seem, well, a little less routine. 1. Switch Your Seat
Change your outlook at the office by changing your office. Ask your supervisor to help you find a new desk. Even switching desks with a neighboring coworker can offer a fresh atmosphere.
If it"s not possible to change your location, see if you can change your desk’s direction. A new view can be just as refreshing as a new location.
2. ______________
Start and end your day in a different way. Consider a new mode of transportation, if it’s possible. Take a subway. Ride a bike on sunny days. Carpool with a coworker. Use a new route to get to your job. You needn"t change it for ever—just long enough to help you escape the boredom.
3. Find a New Work Style
Sick of attending that long-standing Monday morning meeting? Try to change it to the afternoon.
If you find yourself feeling most bored in the afternoons, try to arrange to do your favorite tasks then and tackle less desirable projects in the mornings.
If you usually communicate with coworkers via email and instant messaging, start dealing with people face to face. Increased communication with coworkers may help improve your mood.
4. Get and Set a Goal
If your work is short of objectives, it"s no wonder that work has become boring. Identify a goal and set an “achieve by” date for it.
Your goal needn’t be noble as long as you have enough enthusiasm for it. Perhaps you want to make a new project. Maybe you’d like to pursue a promotion. Or you may even set a goal of finding a new job altogether. Whatever it is, actively move toward an objective.

举一反三
As soon as he could hold a pencil or a brush， Tsai Chin-chung lived only for drawing. Every day he practised drawing people and things around him as well as characters and scenes from his favorite stories.
When he was only 15 years old， he left home to work for a publisher in Taibei. At first he was only 15 years old and he worked hard to draw pictures for books. So two years later he decided to leave his job as an artist who draws pictures for books and to work on drawing cartoon series. He made up his mind to succeed as a cartoonist even if it meant “living on instant noodles” in order to make himself famous.
Now nearly 50 years old， Tsai Chin-chung has achieved something unusual for a modern cartoonist. He has become extraordinarily successful at changing Chinese literature and philosophy into humorous comic stories. In this way， he had made the Chinese classics known to thousands of people.
In recognition of his great achievement， several years ago Tsai Chin-chung was given a prize as one of the 10 Outstanding Young People of Taiwan. Since then， he has won many prizes and his cartoons have become popular in countries and areas throughout Asia， America and Europe. So far， he has published more than 20 comic books. Ten of these are about ancient Chinese philosophers， and the remainder are based on Chinese historical and literary classics.
Many of Tsai Chin-chung’s books of cartoons and comics have now been published in English in countries and areas like Singapore. His books have also been translated into several other languages， including Japanese， Korean and Thai. Even publishers in countries like France and Indonesia have recently signed agreements for permission to publish his cartoon series.

小题2: What does “living on instant noodles” mean in this passage？ (No more than 4 words) (3 marks)
小题3: How does he make the Chinese classics known to thousands of people？ (No more than 10 words) (2 marks)
小题4:. Why was Tsai Chin-chung nominated one of the ten outstanding young people of Taiwan？ (No more than 5 words) (3 marks)
Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart(购物手推车). They will, in a lifetime, push the chrome-plated contraptions many miles. But few will know—or even think to ask—who it was that invented them.
Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging(吃力地携带) groceries around in baskets they had to carry.
One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.
On June 4, 1937, Goldman’s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldn’t wait to see them using his invention.
But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try.
After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren’t using his carts. “Don’t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?” one shopper replied.
But Goldman wasn’t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To end this, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony(假冒的)customers.
As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come—those who came bought more. With larger, easier-to-handle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before.
Today’s shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman’s original model. Perhaps that’s one reason Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937—before the coming of the shopping cart.

“They’re sitting in the classroom, but their heads are at home on the pillows,” said a teacher from a high school.
Don’t blame them; blame the clocks in their brains. A research suggests that biological clocks make teens stay up at night and sleep in the morning.
During the first several weeks of school, students are more likely to lack sleep. In the holidays, students can sleep eight hours a night, but during the school days, they sleep only about six hours on average. Students lose 10 hours’ sleep a week. This may affect their school performances and leads to poor health.
Scientists in the US did research to reset teenagers’ biological clock to help them fall asleep earlier. They found the brain can produce a chemical that helps sleep. But it comes out only in the dark. So they use a special light in the classroom to try to force a reset of the students’ biological clock.
The research failed in the end. So some schools in the US tried to reset their school time from 7:25 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. The results seemed to be good.

If you discover that you have problems getting along with your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance. Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others.We can not change the way that other people do, so it is important to learn to live happily with them.
Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other. Knowing others constantly makes us understand others’differences. Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad. Tolerance teaches us to keep an even temper and an open mind.
You need to remember an old saying, “Treat others how you want to be treated.” You would like to be treated kindly by your classmates, so it is important to treat them kindly too. If you tolerate something, it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in.Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change.
It is important to practice tolerance, because it will make everyone’s life easier. Learn to accept people for their different abilities and interests. The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference.

Say you just got a box of chocolate. Which piece do you pick first? A study carried out by a professor in the University of Virginia showed that people’s choices of chocolates show their personality. If you choose a round piece, you are a person who likes to party. If you select an oval shape, you are a person who strives(努力). You like to make things and push yourself to be successful. Picking a square shape shows that this is an honest and truthful person you can depend on.
What kind of chocolate do you pick? Maybe you like milk chocolate. This shows you have warm feelings about the past, while dark chocolate means something else -- the person who chooses it ________. What about white chocolate? Would you like to choose it? If so, you may find it hard to make up your mind. Those who like chocolate with nuts are people who like to help others.
Do you believe these ideas? Can chocolate tell all these things? It doesn’t matter. There is one sure thing about eaters of chocolates – they eat it because they like it.
