And if you don"t know for sure, it"s a very likely that you can find out. There may be a watch on your wrist, there may be a clock on the wall, desk, or computer screen; or maybe you"re riding in a car that has a clock in the dashboard (仪表板). Even if you don"t have a timepiece of some sort nearby, your body keeps its own beat. Humans have an internal clock that regulates (调节) the beating of our heart, the pace of our breathing, the discharge (排出) of chemicals within our bloodstream, and many other bodily functions. Time is something from which we can"t escape. Even if we ignore it, it"s still going by, ticking away, second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour. So the main issue in using your time well is, "Who"s in charge?" We can allow time to slip by and let it be our enemy. Or we can take control of it and make it our ally. By taking control of how you spend your time, you"ll increase your chances of becoming a more successful student. Perhaps more importantly, the better you are at managing the time you devote to your studies, the more time you"ll have to spend on your outside interests. The aim of time management is not to schedule every moment so we become slaves of a timetable that governs every waking moment of the day. Instead, the aim is to make informed choices as to how we use our time. Rather than letting the day go by, largely without our awareness, what we are going to discuss next can make us better able to control time for our own purposes. | 1. The underlined word "ally" in Para. 3 more likely means somebody or something that is _____. | A. your slave and serves you B. your supporter and helps you C. under your control and obeys you D. under your influence and follows you | 2. The author intends to tell us that time ______. | A. could be regulated by a timepiece such as a clock or a watch B. could be managed by the internal clock of human bodies C. should be well managed for our own interest D. should be saved for outside interests | 3. In the next part, the author would most probably discuss with you ______. | A. how to keep up with the times B. how to make up for lost time C. how to have a good time D. how to make good use of time | 阅读理解。 | It is often necessary to release a fish, that is, set it free after catching, because it is too small, or you just don"t want to take it home to eat. In some cases, releasing fish is a good measure that will help keep fish variety and build their population size. The Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF) encourages fishermen who practice catch-and-release fishing to use a few simple skills when doing so. The advice provided below will help make sure that the fish you release will survive (存活) to bite again another day. -When catching a fish, play it quickly and keep the fish in the water as much as possible. -Don"t" use a net in landing the fish and release it quickly to prevent it from dying. -Hold the fish gently. Do not put your fingers in its eyes. Don"t wipe the scales (鱼鳞) off the fish because it might cause it to develop a disease and reduce its chance of survival. -Remove your hook (鱼钩) quickly. If the hook is too deep or hooked in the stomach, cut the line and leave the hook in. The hook left inside will cause no serious problem to the fish. -Take good care of the fish by moving it gently in water. Release the fish when it begins to struggle and is able to swim. -Do not hold fish in a bucket or some other containers and later decide to release it. If you are going to release a fish, do so right away. With a little care and by following the suggestions given above, you can give the released fish a better chance of survival. | 1. People sometimes set a fish free after catching it because they ______ | A. don"t want it to die B. hope it will grow quickly C. don"t want to have it as food D. want to practice their fishing skills | 2.

What is the purpose of the test? | A. To show how to enjoy fishing. B. To persuade people to fish less often. C. To encourage people to set fish free. D. To give advice on how to release fish. | 阅读理解。 | 2005. You have a job, a family and you"re about 40 years old welcome to your future life. Getting ready for work, you pause in front of the mirror. "Turn red," you say. Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red. Tiny preprogrammed electronics (智能电子元件) are rearranged in your shirt to change its color. Looking into the mirror, you find it hard to believe you"re 40. You look much younger. With amazing advances in medicine, people in your generation may live to be 150 years old. You"re not even middle-aged! As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal into a bowl, you bear, "To lose weight, you shouldn"t eat that," from your shoes.

A list of possible foods appears on the counter as the kitchen checks its food supplies. "Ready for your trip to space?" you ask your son and daughter. In 2005 only specially trained astronauts went into space-and very few of them. Today anyone can go to space for day trips or longer vacations. Your best friend even works in space. Handing your children three strawberries each, you "The doctor said you need these for space travel" Thanks to medical advances, vaccination shots (防疫针) are a thing of the past.

I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved London. I"ve slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it"s an ugly town now. Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play, and good man-ners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good man-ners-people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing. I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You"re forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice. As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public trans-port after 10 p. m. I used to use it, but now I"m afraid. The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and that"s typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbour who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone. | 1. The writer doesn"t like London because she _____. | A. is not used to the life there now B. has lived there for seventeen years C. prefers to live in an old-fashioned house D. has to be polite to everyone she meets there | 2. Where do people usually meet their friends in England? | A. In a cafe. B. In a restaurant. C. In a nightclub. D. In a pub. | 3. The underlined part "it" (in Para. 4) refers to _____. | A. a taxi B. the money C. a bomb D. public transport | 4. The writer took her neighbour to France for Christmas because he _____. | A. felt lonely in England B. had never been to France C. was from a typical French family D. didn"t like the British idea of family |
