     For many the idea of one day having your dream home is not buying a bigger home, but a home that
you have built by yourself. A house that is unique and fit for your tastes and your lifestyle. It sounds great
but where do you begin to design your dream home? Here is a quick guide that can help you make your
dreams come true.
     The first step is to get an idea of what type of home you want. You can get inspiration from others.
Drive around to neighborhoods that have the styles of homes that you like         and take pictures. You
can also cut out pictures from magazines, newspapers, or print-out pictures you find on the Internet.
     The next step will be to make two lists of items for yourself. The first list will be those items or features
that you feel your new home must have, such as granite (花岗岩 ) counter tops or a hot water heater.
The second list will be those items or features that are on your wish list like a fireplace or slate (石板)
floors.
     At this point you will probably have a good idea what your dream home will look like, so you will
need to seek some professional help. You will need to hire an architect to put your ideas down on paper. You may need to interview a few different architects to find one that you are comfortable with. Make
sure whomever you choose to make the final drawings has a full understanding of local building codes
 and zoning by-laws (地区议事程序).In any case your final plan will need to be approved by the city
and a building permit must be obtained before any construction can begin.
     It is time to look for a contractor (承包人). Whichever way you do it, be sure you are comfortable
with your contractor and you have gotten references from his past clients (客户). Remember the more
homework you do in the beginning, the more enjoyable the process will be.

阅读理解。     My first experience of modern city life was quite impressive. I was very curious when I arrived in
London. First, I noticed so many people were on a trip in a busy way.  When I first saw the machine on
the underground where you are expected to feed your ticket in and have to run through moving barriers (拦板), I was completely fascinated (被迷住了) at it. Flashing with the light, the little green man, telling
you when to cross the road, was also quite interesting, and so were those street advertisements which
kept changing subjects as you look.
     In my native place, my life is so different from people’s here. I am a market gardener from Makono,
a village which is led by a market-managing group. People there usually walk two hours a day to get
water from a well. What’s more, I am used to going, for many hours, without drinking , so it was strange
to be offered cups of tea all the time here in London.
     In my native place, on market days, I usually walk for several hours with my basket full of fruits and
vegetables on my head, carrying them to the market for sale, to earn £1per basket. Without the produce
from my garden, I could not pay for education or healthcare for my children. Gardening is not a hobby
for me - it’s survival . But here people are planting something only to kill their leisure time.
     During our visiting-time in Britain, we visited some local government agencies, schools, churches and
farms in Sussex, Scotland, Yorshire, Loncolnshire and Cambridgeshire, meeting people who were of the
same profession as we are. Children in Burley-in-Wharfedale, Yorkshire, prepared a special get-together
to greet us and we were also asked a lot about our life which was quite fascinating to them. For example,
how we make our houses out of mud and how we get our water for our daily necessities, as well as for
our garden. 1. What can we learn from Paragraph One ?  A. The writer knew London well.    
B. Londoners are always in a hurry .  
C. It was easy to get lost in London.  
D. Everything looked new to the writer.2. The most disadvantage in the writer’s native place should be that ___ .  A. there are many market-managing groups for gardeners   
B. the lack of water makes the life there even harder   
C. people there like to travel about on foot for enjoyment   
D. people support themselves using the garden produce3. The underlined word " survival" has the most exact meaning of ___ .   A. a means of earning one’s life    
B. a habit to live a better life   
C. a kind of very practical idea      
D. a custom followed by people 4. Which of the following should be the best title ? A. How to Get around in London    
B. Communicating with the British   
C. Experiencing Modern Life      
D. How Can One Live Leisurely(休闲地) ?

阅读理解。     It might sound ridiculous (荒唐的) that goal setting could actually hold you back from completing
tasks and dreams you may have. While it is true that goals can help you sometimes, in some cases they
just lead to frustration(挫折) and they actually bring you down.
     Let"s look at this a little closer with an example. Many people jump online and are looking to start a
business online as a way to make money from home and let"s say they set a goal to make $10,000 in
their first month. They do this because they seem tons of people making large sums of money in very little
time so they think $10,000 a month shouldn"t be too hard. But what happens when you only bring in
$1,000 in your first 30 days online?If this is pure profit(利润) you might still be happy, but this is
nowhere near reaching the goal you originally set out to meet. So naturally you would feel like you failed
to reach your goal and you may be a little disappointed in yourself.
     If you continue not to reach this goal month in month, it starts to add up and really weighs on you. I"m
not saying that you shouldn"t set goals, but you need to realize that you should not be emotionally attached
to your goals.
     An alternative approach would be to set certain goals when you want to accomplish things and start
out small. Build your confidence by accomplishing smaller feats and if you overproduce then it will be a
nice surprise. It makes it a lot easier for you to handle by just knowing every day you have to complete a
few small tasks and over time the snowball will roll into great things.1. The purpose of the passage is to _________.A. show that it"s necessary to set goals.
B. prove the disadvantages of setting goals.
C. suggest a way of setting goals to reach success
D. introduce how to reach success by setting high goals.2. In Paragraph 2, the writer used the example to ________.A. persuade readers not to focus on making money only.
B. prove that goals often result in frustration.
C. show goal setting sometimes stops you realizing your dreams.
D. advise readers not to set goals to avoid frustration.3. According to the passage, always sticking to our goals is ________.A. important  
B. unnecessary  
C. ridiculous  
D. natural4. What information will probably be proved following the last paragraph?A. Benefits of setting small goals.        
B. Side effects of goal setting.
C. Success achieved without goal setting.  
D. One more useful suggestion for goal setting

     Most of us lead a busy life.   1   We think, "If I reached my goal, then I would be happy", or "If I
could get a better job, then I would enjoy life." But why not enjoy life right now?
     Firstly, take time to notice and appreciate the beauty in your own surroundings. _2_ "There is a great
big world of wonder and beauty around us!" And as Brodersen explains. "Look for the beauty of the
sunrise and of a friend"s smile that brightens your day.Open your eyes to see the beauty you might not
normally see. Doing so helps to cheer you up."
     Secondly, taking time to experiencing some simple pleasures also can bring joy to your heart and ease
your stress. Take me for example. _3_One universal simple pleasures is finding things that make you
laugh. Make time to laugh every day.
     Thirdly, don"t take your family and friends for granted. Rich, rewarding relationships add greatly to the
enjoyment of life. When you think of someone, why not call, e-mail or write them? _4 _As Wayne
Lawton explains, "Invest time in relationships. Remove the attitude, what"s in it for me? Happiness is
found in putting other"s interests, desires and concerns ahead of our own whenever possible. Selfishness
is a dead-end street." _5 _
A. I delight in simple things like my favorite tea drink, a bubble bath or family photos.
B. In my spare time, I enjoy collecting stamps and reading novels.
C. Driven by the "urgent", we forget to enjoy life.
D. So please treasure relationship.
E. You don"t need to travel far to find beauty.
F. Be aware of beauty in nature.
G. A short e-mail or phone call can make a world of difference to someone.
