set out to do is not the important thing. Let me 1 .
Two brothers decided to 2 a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to 3 .
"What are you doing?" asked one of the visitors.
"We plan to dig a hole all the way through the 4 !" one of the brothers volunteered 5 .
The older boys began to 6 , telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth
was 7 . After a long silence, one of the 8 picked up a jar full of spiders, 9 and many other kinds
of insects. He 10 the lid and showed the wonderful 11 to the scoffing (嘲笑的) visitors. Then he
said quietly and confidently, "Even if we don"t dig all the way through the earth, look at what we have
found 12 the way!"
Their goal was far too ambitious, but it did cause them to dig. And that is 13 a goal is for - to cause
us to move in the direction we have chosen, 14 , to set us digging!
But not every goal will be fully 15 . Not every job will end 16 . Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. Not every dream will be 17 . But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, "Yes, 18 look at what I"ve found along the way! Look at the wonderful things 19 my life
because I tried to do something!" It is in the digging that life is lived. And I believe it is the joy in the
journey, in the end, that truly 20 .

alcohol limit when he crashed his Infiniti SUV into a car stopped at a red light in Beijing May 9. A blood
test showed Gao had 243.04 milligrams of alcohol for 100 milliliters of blood, well over the 80 milligram
limit within a 100 milliliters of blood.
On Tuesday afternoon the man known to million for his harsh (严厉的) comments to participants on
China"s Got Talent had to face the judge himself at Beijing Dongcheng District People"s Court under
China"s newly amended(修改的) Road Traffic Safety Law.
"I"ve nothing to defend myself only regret," he told the courtroom filled with people. "I always thought
alcohol could bring me freedom, but it never occurred to me that drunk driving will rid others of their
freedom. I"ll be responsible for all the loss it has caused. This incident showed my irresponsibility for life. I"m willing to be a volunteer for my life promoting the non-drunk driving."

interviews, but wrote on a piece of paper, "sorry, never drive when drunk."

effect on May 1. Guo Shudong, the first driver sentenced since the new law was introduced, was jailed

everyday speakers? One expert points out that the percentage of native English speakers is declining
(降低) while the languages of other rapidly growing regions are being spoken by increasing numbers
of people. But English will continue to remain widespread and important.
However, British language scholar David Graddol says English will probably drop in dominance(主
导) by the middle of this century to rank,after Chinese, about equally with Arabic, Hindi, and Urdu. "The
number of people speaking English as a first language continues to rise,but it isn"t rising nearly as fast as
the numbers of many other languages around the world,simply because the main population group has
been largely in the less developed countries where languages other than English have been spoken," he
says.
In a recent article in the journal Science, Mr. Graddol noted that three languages that are not near the
top of the list of the most widely spoken now might be there soon. These are Bengali,Tamil,and Malay,
spoken in south and southeast Asia.
David Crystal,the author of The Cambridge Encyclo?edia of the English L徵guage, says about
1. 5 billion of the world"s six billion people speak it as a second tongue compared to the 400 million
native speakers. But another expert on the English language says Mr. Graddol underestimates (低估) the
future of its dominance. "All the evidence suggests that the English language snowball is rolling down a hill
and is getting faster,but nobody quite knows what"s going to happen because no language has been in this position before. " he said.
B. be more important than any other language
C. lose its dominant position
D. die away in the near future
B. the English language snowball is rolling down faster than any time in the past
C. English language will soon drop in dominance
D. more and more language users will choose English
B. 3.
C. 4.
D. 5
will be most widely spoken?
B. Arabic.
C. Urdu.
D. German.
B. The Future of English? Who Knows?
C. Opinions from Different Experts
D. The English Language Snowball Rolling Down
[2] This is one question millions of people over the globe ask themselves every now and then. It is not
as if you are not working hard, but you simply may not know that there is a difference between work and
productivity. Your plan is what gives you a clear picture of what you are aiming at, but the method of
achieving may vary from time to time. That you did not meet up with a deadline does not mean you were
not working on it. The problem is whether you will be able to manage time.
[3] Before you start on the next activity, task or project, first ask yourself why you want to do what
you are about to do now. You will by this be able to know if the task should be done, and if the timing is
right.
[4] Doing the right thing at the wrong time makes it absolutely wrong. So it is not just enough to do
what is right, also consider . Your time has value, when you spend it on what is right at that instance. On the other hand, the value of your task is when it is done at the right time.
[5] You will feel sorry about the time spent on what was not profitable to you. Time can not be wasted, because it can not be preserved and replaced. You are always doing something with your time. What
matters is the value of what you are doing at the moment with your time.
[6] The desire to make a difference begins with the ability to take the right decision on what to do. It
will become simple if you learn to manage time effectively.
