71 .She described all the things she had to do -one was to make her bed-from the moment she woke up until she flew out of the door for work. I suggested she experiment by not making her bed for two weeks. She was shocked, probably thinking I’d been raised by wolves in a forest. 72.
Two weeks later she went into my office beaming. She had left her bed unmade for the first time in 42 years-and nothing bad had happened. “And you know what?” she said. “I don’t dry my dishes anymore, either.”
73 .One was discovering that she had choices in her life that she had never seen before. The other was giving herself permission to be less that perfect. This story shows an important principle (原理) about managing time: No one can do it all. Each of us has to make choices and accept trade – offs. The problem is, many people choose in ways that put themselves and their health last. They take better care of their houses and cars than they do of themselves. 74 .
So what is the solution? There’s an easy way. Decide what you want in your life, and put that first. On a daily basis, that should include regular meals, enough sleep and time with your family. Exercise, leisure, friendships and hobbies should also be regular aspects of life. 75 .The choice is yours: whatever makes you feel good about yourself and your life. Take a nap. Take a walk. Take time to play the piano. Stop bringing your briefcase home from the office. Stop keeping your house as clean as your mother kept hers. Fill more of your time with want – to – dos instead of have – to – dos.
A.This woman had made two major breakthroughs. |
B.Above all, you needn’t do anything for yourself regularly. |
C.They put everyone else’s needs ahead of their own. |
D.However, she went along with my idea. |
F. The point is to do something for yourself every day.
G. A patient came to see me about the stress in her life.

Then the father 40 at me as he handed me my tip. “Well done,” he said, “you’ve 41 us really well.” Suddenly my tiredness 42 . I smiled back, and later, when the manager asked me how I"d like my first day, I said, “ 43 !” Those few words of praise had 44 everything. Praise is like 45 to the human spirit; we cannot grow without it. And 46 ,while most of us are only too 47 to apply(应用)to others the cold wind of criticism (批评), we are 48 to give our fellows the warm sunshine of praise.

It is strange haw chary (吝啬) we are about praising. Perhaps it’s 50 few of us know how to accept it. It’s 51 rewarding (奖赏)to give praise in areas in which 52 generally goes unnoticed or unmentioned.

Devon, 17, is used to paying her own cell phone and car expenses. But lately it"s been harder. The family she baby-sits for hasn’t been calling as much as usual and she couldn"t find a job over the summer. Devon"s dad said it"s a sign of the tough economy. He told her he"s feeling the pinch too and that he had to use her college fund to pay the loan(货款).
This kind of money troubles isn"t strange to common families these days. In fact, it"s hard to avoid news about the economy on the screen of the TV or the computers recently. It can seem a bit worry and some families are hit really hard.
For most people, the big problem is that things cost more at a time when they have less money to spend. But higher prices aren"t the only problem. Many people are having a tough time making payments on some types of home loans.
Therefore, some families are cutting back on what they spend. For example, eating out less, staying home instead of going on vacation, moving to a less expensive house and so on.
However, as discouraging as things may seem now, the good news is that the economy always gets back on track after a while. Jobs may be hard to find, but the slow economy can open up new opportunities. The couple Devon babysat for might cut back on evening"s out, but they could be interested in hiring her for after-school care. Perhaps it"s time to sell her old toys and baby gear (设备)in the basement(地下室) or help others sell these items online if she is-good at it. She could charge them a fee to sell their old stuff(东西).

阅读下面短文,根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填一个单词
Every year there are hundreds of earthquakes in different parts of the world. In Sept.1923, Tokyo and Yokohama were both destroyed by an earthquake and the fires that followed it. They had to be completely rebuilt. One of the most serious earthquakes was in China’s Shanxi Province in 1556. It killed almost one million people.
We measure an earthquake’s strength on the Richter scale. The Richter scale was introduced in 1935 in Southern California in the USA. It measures earthquakes on a scale of one to ten. Any earthquake measuring five or more is usually serious.
The earth’s crust (地壳) is made up of layers of rock called plates. As these plates move, they sometimes crash against each other, causing the crust to quake. In cities such as Tokyo, where small quakes happen quite often, many modern buildings are designed to be flexible so when the earth moves, they move with it.
Earthquakes can also break up gas or oil pipes. This can cause fires to break out, which can do as much damage as the earthquake itself.
Another effect of earthquakes is tsunamis (海啸). These are huge waves created by earthquakes beneath the sea. They can be many metres high and cause great damage to coastal towns and cities. China, Japan, Russia and the USA have the highest occurrence (发生) of earthquakes in the world.
Knowing about 1 | |
Two serious earthquakes in 2 | An earthquake and 3 fires destroyed both Tokyo and Yokohama in Sept. 1923. |
In 1556, a very serious earthquake 4 in China’s Shanxi Province. | |
The way to 5 an earthquake’s strength | People can measure an earthquake’s strength on the Richter scale of one to ten, 6 in 1935 in the USA. If an earthquake measures five or more, it’s usually serious. |
The 7 of earthquakes | As the plates, which form the earth’s 8 , move, they sometimes crash against each other, causing the crust to quake. |
Some 9 of earthquakes | If earthquakes break up gas or oil pipes, 10 will happen, which can do as much damage as the earthquake itself. |
Tsunami is another effect of earthquakes. |
The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle and, fascinated with its color, drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages. When the child collapsed, the mother hurried him to the hospital, where he died. The mother was stunned. She was terrified how to face her husband.
When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at his wife and uttered just four words. The husband just said ‘I am with you, Darling’. The husband"s totally unexpected reaction is proactive behavior. The child is dead. He can never be brought back to life. There is no point in finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he have taken time to keep the bottle away, this will not have happened. No point in attaching blame. She had also lost her only child. What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her.
If everyone can look at life with this kind of viewpoint, there would be much fewer problems in the world. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness, and fears and you will find things are actually not as difficult as you think. Sometimes we spend time asking who is responsible or whom to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the people we know. By this way we miss out some warmth in human relationship.
56.The uncapped medical bottle was not put back into the cupboard because .
A.the husband was careless B.the husband was busy
C.the wife wasn’t informed of the matter D.the wife ignored the matter
57.What do we know about the bottle? .
A.It contained poison only for adults B.It appeared like a nice drink
C.It was broken by the child D.It was kept in the kitchen
58.The husband’s attitude towards his wife can be described as .
A.optimistic B.confident C.considerate D.generous
59.What did the writer intend to tell us about life? .
A.Let go the negative side and we can enjoy life.
B.It is always useless finding who is responsible
C.Think of nothing and life will be easy
