People aren’t walking any more--- if they can
figure out a way to avoid it.
I felt superior about this matter until the other
day I took my car to mail a small parcel. The journey is a matter of 281 steps. But I used the car. And I wasn’t in any hurry, either, I had merely become one
more victim of a national sickness: motorosis. www.ks5u.com
It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune(免疫的), for I was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as good day’s walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as a sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting. When I was 45 years old I raced –and beat—a teenage
football player the 168 steps up the Stature of Liberty.
Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrhams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need
proper exercise. A person who avoids exercise is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. And walking is an ideal form of exercise--- the most familiar and natural of all.
It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the trees, flower, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world. He cannot learn in a car.
The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don’t dare to approach Nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thinking takes place while
waiting for the traffic light to turn green.
I say that the green of forests is the mind’s best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.
5. What was life like when the author was young? A. People usually went around on foot.
B. people often walked 25 miles a day
C. People used to climb the Statue of Liberty. D. people considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship. 6. The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove that A. middle-aged people like getting back to nature B. walking in nature helps enrich one’s mind
C. people need regular exercise to keep fit D. going on foot prevents heart disease
7. What is compared to “a steel river” in
Paragraph6?
A. A queue of cars B. A ray of traffic light
C. A flash of lightning D. A stream of people
8. What is the author’s intention of writing this passage?
A. To tell people to reflect more on life. B. To recommend people to give up driving C. To advise people to do outdoor activities D. To encourage people to return to walking
C
Choosing the Right Resolution (决定)
Millions of Americans began 2014 with the same resolution they started 2013 with, a goal of losing
weight. However, setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake.
To reach our goal of losing weight --- the output, we need to control what we eat --- the input ( 输
入). That is, we tend to care about the output but not to control the input. This is a bad way to construct goals. The alternative is to focus your resolution on the input. Instead of resolving to lose weight, try an actionable resolution: “I’ll stop having dessert for lunch,” or “I’ll walk every day for 20 minutes.” Creating a goal that focuses on a well-specified input will likely be more effective than concentrating on the outcome.
Recently a new science behind incentives (激励) ,
including in education, has been discussed. For example, researcher Roland Fryer wanted to see what
works best in motivating children to do better in school. In some cases, he gave students incentives based on input, like reading certain books, while in others, the incentives were based on output, like results on exams. His main finding was that incentives increased achievement when based on input but had no effect on output. Fryer’s conclusion was that the intensives for inputs might be more effective because students do not know how to do better on exam, aside from general rules like “study harder.” Reading certain books, on the other hand, is a well-set task over which they have much more control.
As long as you have direct control over your goal, you have a much higher chance of success. And it’s
easier to start again if you fail, because you know exactly what you need to do.
If you want to cut down on your spending, a good goal would be making morning coffee at home instead of going to a cafe, for example. This is a well-specified action-based goal for which you can measure your success easily. Spending less money isn’t a goal because it’s too general. Similarly, if you want to spend more time with your family, don’t stop with this general wish. Think about an
actionable habit that you could adopt and stick to, like a family movie night every Wednesday.
In the long run, these new goals could become a habit.
9. The writer thinks that setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake because_______ .
A. it is hard to achieve for most Americans B. it is focused too much on the result
C. it is dependent on too many things D. it is based on actionable decisions
10. In Roland Fryer’s research, some students did
better than the others because _________ . A. they obeyed all the general rules B. they paid more attention to exams
C. they were motivated by their classmates D. they were rewarded for reading some books 11. According to the writer, which of the following statements is a good goal?
A. “I’ll give up dessert.” B. “I’ll
study harder.”
C. “I’ll cut down my expense” D. “I’ll
spend more time with my family”
12. The writer strongly believes that we should ________ .
A. develop good habits and focus on the outcome B. be optimistic about final goals and stick to them C. pick specific actions that can be turned into good habits
D. set ambitious goals that can balance the input and output
D
The baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert (警觉). Twenty
centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots
differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze(凝视) starts to lose its focus
— until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?
Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three?
No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise (同样地)when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.
13. Babies are sensitive to the change in______. A. the size of cards B. the colour
of pictures
C. the shape of patterns D. the number
of objects
14. Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?
A. To reduce the difficulty of the experiment.
B. To see how babies recognize sounds.
C. To carry their experiment further.
D. To keep the babies’ interest.
15. Where does this text probably come from? A. Science fiction. B.
Children’s literature.
C. An advertisement. D. A science report.

Business is the organized approach to providing customers with the goods and services they want. The word business also refers to an organization that provides these goods and services. Most businesses seek to make a profit(利润)— that is, they aim to
achieve income that is more than the costs of operating the business. 71 Commonly called
nonprofits, these organizations are primarily nongovernmental service providers. 72
Business management is a term used to describe the techniques of planning, direction, and control of the operations of a business. 73 One is the
(制定) of broad basic policies with establishment
respect to production; sales; the purchase of equipment, materials and supplies; and accounting. 74 The third relates to the establishment of standards of work in all departments. Direction is concerned primarily with supervision(监管)and
guidance by the management in authority. 75
A. Control includes the use of records and reports to compare actual work with the set standards for work.
B. In this connection there is the difference between top management and operative management.
C. Examples of nonprofit business include such organizations as social service agencies and may hospitals.
D. However, some businesses only seek to earn enough to cover their operating costs.
E. The second aspect relates to the application of these policies by departments.
F. In the theory of business management, organization has two main aspects.
G. Planning in business management has three main aspects.

Patience is of great importance in our daily life. Once I waited a bus to come at a
stop. 30 minutes past, but no bus came. Both upset and annoyed, I decided to walk
on feet. But no sooner had I left when the bus arrived. I thought if I had waited for
one more minute, I would have caught it. If I chose to take a next bus, I would have
to wait for other 30 minutes. Only then do I realize my problem. Being impatient
will possible waste all the effort that we have put it in. Now whenever I am close to
lose my patience, I’ll think of this experience.
