举一反三
If this is true, perhaps it tells us a little about, for instance, Thomas Hood, the 19th Century English poet. About November, he wrote:
No warmth, no cheerfulness, no healthful ease
No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees
November!
On the other hand, another English poet John Keats, already sensing he was seriously ill, was inspired by a late September day to pen one of the most famous poems in the English language, To Autumn. He wrote to a friend afterwards that there was something comforting and healing about it.
According to Richard Mabey, Keats has the biological evidence on his side. Autumn is not a time of slowing down, but a time of new beginnings and great movements of creatures. For example, just at the moment that Keats"s "gathering swallows" (in To Autumn) are departing for Africa, millions of creatures are fleeing from the frozen north like Iceland, Greenland and Russia to winter along the east and south coasts of Britain. According to scientists, before falling, the leaves transfer their chlorophyll(叶绿素) and carbohydrates into the woody parts of the tree for safe-keeping over winter. What remains are the natural antioxidants(防老剂) in the leaves: the yellow and orange carotenoids(类胡萝卜素), and another protective chemical specially produced for autumn, the bright-red anthocyanin(花青素). High color is not a signal of deterioration(退化) and decline, but of detox(排毒的) ability and good health.
A century after Keats, the American poet Loren Eiseley wrote in his journal: "Suppose we saw ourselves burning like maples in a golden autumn. [And that we could] disintegrate(瓦解) like autumn leaves…dropping their substance like chlorophyll. Would not our attitude towards death be different?"
小题1:From Thomas Hood’s poem, we may infer that _______.
A.he suffered a lot from cold November |
B.he missed the shining summer days very much |
C.he had a negative attitude towards autumn |
D.he enjoyed butterflies and bees very much |
A.Optimistic. | B.Fearful. | C.Doubtful. | D.Realistic. |
A.they can’t bear the freezing |
B.they can’t get enough water from the wood part |
C.chlorophyll and carbohydrates have been lost through leaves |
D.chlorophyll and carbohydrates have come back to the wood part |
A.Man can never live long, just as leaves must leave the tree annually. |
B.Man is different from autumn leaves, which will come again the next spring. |
C.Man should treat death calmly, just like autumn leaves fall to the ground. |
D.Man should have a positive attitude towards death, quite different from autumn leaves. |
It was reported that Burbure and his family are in a celebratory mood. “It’s a proud moment for all of us,” his wife told DNAIndia.com.
I, on the other hand, am unable to share their enthusiasm. Don’t get me wrong: I hope the 35-year-old Burbure lives forever, sells a million records and becomes an international celebrity. But his record–singing for 80 hours straight–is about as meaningful as most of the other curious but crazy feats listed in the Guinness Book of World Records.
Granted , I’m not qualified to speak on the subject. I’ve got no world records to my name– and I never expect to have any. Then again, maybe I am qualified to speak for those of us who have better things to do than train for years to sing an 80-hour medley (混合曲) of pop songs.
But let’s not just pick on poor Burbure. He’s not the only person chasing meaningless accolades. The Guinness Book of World Records is full of the names of people who at one time grew the longest hair, or built the biggest bicycle, or baked the largest cheesecake.
To all of these enterprising (有进取心的) souls I ask, simply, “What was it all for?”
Congratulations! For all of your painstaking effort, you became a footnote in a thick book that no one reads, except for you and the person who will eventually surpass you–with one more hour of singing, a few more centimeters of steel or a few more pounds of cheese.
After all, records are made to be broken.
小题1:From the text, we can learn that the author .
A.has no Guinness records, so he admires Burbures’ feat |
B.feels it is a pity he was not invited to share the happiness with the Burbures |
C.thinks singing for 80 hours straight is completely meaningless |
D.is quite worried about Burbure’s vocal cords |
A.become an international celebrity |
B.know all about Guinness record |
C.practice a great deal |
D.bear great stress for fear of injury |
A.after the 80 hours of singing, Burbure could no longer speak |
B.Burbure’ wife didn’t support his attempt to make a Guinness record |
C.many have criticized Burbure for his stupid behavior |
D.challenging a Guinness record may be harmful to the health |
A.positive | B.impressed |
C.negative | D.touched |
A.What Was the Point? |
B.Records Are Made to be Broken |
C.A New Indian Guinness Record |
D.The Guinness Book Is Boring |
★ The ant — work first
Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people don"t care about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire. The ant loves to save, but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks with low risk.
★ The cricket — fun first
The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn"t think too much about the future. They even borrow money when they really want something. Many young people now belong to this group. These people have little savings. When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy insurance.
★ The snail — life under pressure
The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big long-term loans(贷款) from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses. They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure they can afford them. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan more carefully.

In a study, Dr Stanly Goldfarb and Dr Dan Negoianu, both of the Renal, Electrolyte and Hypertension Division at the University of Pensylvania, the United States, have denied the popular belief that drinking a lot of water clears body toxins(毒素)better, improves skin, and helps reduce weight.
Dr Goldfarb and Dr Negoianu say that they found little proof to back the public opinion that drinking 8 glasses of water every day benefits health. At the same time, they fond little proof of harm in drinking 8 glasses of water every day.
It is widely believed that in some cases-such as athletes, people who live in hot, dry environments, and those with certain medical conditions-drinking a lot of water indeed helps, but no studies have been done to prove the benefits of this practice in average, healthy people, the website medheadlines.com reports.
The study at the University of Pennsylvania also examined reports that some people experienced increased headaches when their consumption(消耗)of water was low. In one small study, which the doctors reviewed, the group drinking the most water reported fewer headaches than the control group, “but the difference in the number of headaches was o small between the two groups as to be considered unimportant.”
The researchers concluded that there is no scientific proof to support that average, healthy people need to drink at least 8 glasses of water each each day.
The website medheadines.com says that, according to an Indian doctor, drinking too much water is harmful. If water enters the body more quickly than it can be removed, problems can occur.
小题1:What’s the key message delivered in the passage?
A.Drinking too much water might bring harm. |
B.Whether to drink enough water makes no difference. |
C.Drinking too much water may cause headaches. |
D.Average, healthy people should drink more water. |
A.proves good for the body | B.has scientific proof of harm |
C.is sure to reduce headaches | D.is generally considered necessary |
A.The two experts. | B.The Indian doctor. |
C.The general public. | D.The website. |
A.the website medheadlnes.com is developed by an Indian doctor |
B.the study was carried out by two experts with an Indian doctor |
C.the two experts performed the study at the University of Pennsylvania |
D.drinking 8 glasses of water every day can cure certain diseases |
There are labels(标签) inside all new clothes. The labels tell you how to take care of your clothes. The label for a shirt may tell you to wash it in warm water. A sweater label may tell you to wash in cold water. The label on a coat may say “dry clean only”, for washing may ruin this coat. If you do as the directions (说明)on the label, you can keep your clothes looking their best for a long time.
Many clothes today must be dry cleaned. Dry cleaning is expensive. When buying new clothes, check to see if they will need to be dry cleaned. You will save money if you buy clothes that can be washed.
You can save money if you buy clothes that are well made. Well-made clothes last longer. They look good even after they have been washed many times. Clothes that cost more money are not necessarily(不一定) better made. They do not always fit better. Sometimes less expensive clothes look and fit better than more expensive clothes.
