Never giving up is the key to make our dreams come true. We may fail from time to time, but we can learn from failure, correct our mistakes and try again until we achieve our goals. Our life is like a long journey which is not all roses. It sometimes has wind and rain. We believe rainbows will appear after storms.
Cooperation is also necessary. Everyone likes a person who is good at cooperating with others. Besides, in our society most problems can"t be solved by one person alone. Cooperation is becoming one of the most important ways for people living in the developing society.
At the same time, we should learn to examine our abilities because it helps us know our advantages and disadvantages as well as get a full control of ourselves. Then we may be confident enough to face challenges.
Follow the suggestions above, and our dreams are sure to come true.

举一反三
(CNN) -- Democrats and Republicans were unable to resolve (解决) their differences over Obamacare (奥巴马医改计划)and now the government is shut down. The two previous shutdowns — 1995 and early 1996 — cost the country $1.4 billion. But what will the shutdown mean for you? Here are 7 ways the government shutdown will affect you.
7. Vacation all I ever wanted: Need to get away? Well, you can’t. At least not to national parks. Or to national zoos. Or to national museums. They"ll be closed. Were you thinking more along the lines of a trip to France? If you don’t already have a passport, you might not get your blue book in time. The last time the government shut down, 200,000 applications for passports went unprocessed.
6. If you drive a car, I"ll tax the street: You may be thinking, “No functioning government, no need to pay taxes.” Think again. The Man would continue to collect taxes. U.S. bonds would still be issued. And other essential banking functions will go on.
5. Wait a minute, Mr. Postman: You know that whole “Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom of night” thing? Apparently, the U.S. Postal Service works through shutdowns as well. Sorry, you won’t catch a break from the junk mail.
4. I want a new drug: Oh, the irony (讽刺的). Republicans still want to defund, delay or otherwise withdraw gradually at Obamacare in exchange for funding the government. But the health care act at the center of this storm would continue its process during a shutdown. That is because its funds aren’t dependent on the congressional budget (预算) process.
3. Pass the ammunition (军火): Not so fast. A shutdown would affect the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Translation: That gun permit you wanted processed won’t happen anytime soon if this goes on for a while.
2. Money (that"s what I want): Well, if you owned a small business and needed a loan from the government, you would have to wait, depending on how long this lasts. If you were planning to buy a house and needed a federal loan, you would have to wait.
1. I"m proud to be an American: Perhaps the biggest hit would be to the collective psyche (下意识心理). America is the largest economy in the world and a beacon for how democracy ought to work. A recent CNN Research Corporation found that 51% would blame Republicans for the shutdown. The United States has operated without a budget since 2009 and has avoided a government shutdown with last-minute deals. Not only did the government run out of money on Tuesday, but the nation is set to hit its borrowing limit and potentially default on its debt in mid-October. Together, they serve as a double whammy (打击).
小题1:Which is the most probably meaning of the underlined word?
A.Raise some money. | B.Take the money back. |
C.Borrow some money. | D.went on a strike. |
A.Apply for a gun permit. | B.Apply for a new passport. |
C.Apply for a loan. | D.Pay taxes. |
A.Once. | B.Twice. | C.Three times. | D.Not mentioned. |
A.The government of America ran out of money. |
B.The government of America is on debts. |
C.America is set to hit the borrowing limit of its debts. |
D.The American government ran out of money and may fail in repaying its debts. |
The American self-image is spread with the golden glow of opportunity. We think of the United States as a land of unlimited possibility, not so much a classless society but as a place where class is mutable—a place where brains, energy and ambition are what counts, not the circumstances of one"s birth.
The Economic Mobility Project, an ambitious research led by Pew Charitable Trusts, looked at the economic fortunes of a large group of families over time, comparing the income of parents in the late 1960s with the income of their children in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Here is the finding: "The "rags to riches" story is much more common in Hollywood than on Main Street. Only 6 percent of children born to parents with family income at the very bottom move to the top.
That is right, just 6 percent of children born to parents who ranked in the bottom of the study sample, in terms of income, were able to bootstrap their way into the top . Meanwhile, an incredible 42 percent of children born into that lowest are still stuck at the bottom, having been unable to climb a single rung of the income ladder.
It is noted that even in Britain---a nation we think of as burdened with a hidebound class system-children who are born poor have a better chance of moving up. When the studies were released, most reporters focused on the finding that African-Americans born to middle-class or upper middle-class families are earning slightly less, in inflation-adjusted dollars, than did their parents.
One of the studies indicates, in fact, that most of the financial gains white families have made in the past three decades can be attributed to the entry of white women into the labor force. This is much less true for African-Americans.
The picture that emerges from all the quintiles, correlations and percentages is of a nation in which, overall, "the current generation of adults is better off than the previous one", as one of the studies notes.
The median income of the families in the sample group was $55,600 in the late 1960s; their children"s median family income was measured at $71,900. However, this rising tide has not lifted all boats equally. The rich have seen far greater income gains than have the poor.
Even more troubling is that our nation of America as the land of opportunity gets little support from the data. Americans move fairly easily up and down the middle rungs of the ladder, but there is "stickiness at the ends" —four out of ten children who are born poor will remain poor, and four out often who are born rich will stay rich.
小题1:What did the Economic Mobility Project find in its research?
A.Children from low-income families are unable to bootstrap their way to the top. |
B.Hollywood actors and actresses are upwardly mobile from rags to riches. |
C.The rags to riches story is more fiction than reality. |
D.The rags to riches story is only true for a small minority of whites. |
A.perfect its self-image as a land of opportunity |
B.have a higher level of upward mobility than Britain |
C.enable African-Americans to have exclusive access to well-paid employment |
D.encourage the current generation to work as hard as the previous generation |
A.The US is a land where brains, energy and ambition are what counts. |
B.Inequality persists between whites and blacks in financial gains. |
C.Middle-class families earn slightly less with inflation considered. |
D.Children in lowest-income families manage to climb a single rung of the ladder. |
A.Social Upward Mobility. |
B.Incredible Income Gains. |
C.Inequality in Wealth. |
D.America Not Land of Opportunity. |
Many Chinese cities have been filled with Christmas neon lights,Christmas songs,Christmas trees,and the images of“Santa Claus”in recent days.As a matter of fact,foreign festivals are becoming more popular than certain traditional Chinese festivals among the Chinese people,particularly the youth.“Certain traditional festivals have died out because people have forgotten their spiritual meanings,”said noted writer Feng Jicai.More and more Chinese people are beginning to exchange gifts on Valentine"s Day and Christmas.However,many of them know nothing about Chinese New Year pictures or sugarcoated figurines(小糖人),and have never heard suona music.Certain folk customs on the Dragon Boat Festival,Tomb Sweeping Day,and other traditional festivals have gradually disappeared.Under such circum-stances,even the“Chinese Fortune Grandpa”is unlikely to defeat“Santa Claus”.
However,it is not a bad thing to some extent.It constantly reminds people to restore the“true
face”of traditional festivals.China has listed traditional Tomb Sweeping Day,Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival as legal holidays,which brings more paid leaves to the public,and helps to awake the public awareness of traditional festivals.
In modern society,festival is a carrier of culture and its meaning largelydepends on their understandings and usages by people.Compared with foreign festivals,traditional Chinese festivals are not inferior (次于) in cultural meanings,but lack of fashion sought by modern people.If people do not appreciate the historical culture contained by traditional festivals,and only take pleasure-seeking as the most important,the significance of traditional festivals will fade away and the inheritance (继承) of fine traditional culture will be cut off.
小题1:The second paragraph implies that______________________.
A.traditional festivals should co-exist with foreign festivals |
B.all the Chinese festivals are disappearing in the near future |
C.western festivals are constantly impacting on our festivals |
D.the Chinese people have the public awareness of traditional festivals |
A.an image designed by the Chinese people will be displayed |
B.many foreigners know nothing about Chinese festivals |
C.the Chinese gift-giver was intended to symbolize traditional culture |
D.the Chinese are beginning to exchange gifts on the Mid-Autumn Festival |
A.traditional festivals are out of fashion now |
B.the historical culture is more difficult to understand |
C.western festivals contain more cultural meanings |
D.the inheritance will cut off their contact with western festivals |
A.Gone are Chinese Traditional Festivals |
B.True Face of Chinese Traditional Culture |
C.Foreign Festivals Popular with Chinese |
D.Chinese Fortune Grandpa VS.Santa Claus |
A recent survey conducted by the Pew Internet&American Life Project found that 54 percent of Internet have posted original photos online.And of those hundreds of millions of photos, many are of selfie photos.
For example,currently there are nearly 62 million posted selfie
photos on Instagram,the social media tool that has significantly contributed to the personal photo’s popularity.That figure,which continues to rise every day, does not even begin to include the selfies shared on Facebook and Twitter.
What makes the selfie so attractive-and why do we feel it a must to take one? According to Dr.Pamela Rutledge,psychologist and director of the Media Psychology Research Center,the desire to take,post and get“likes” on selfies goes back to a biological behavior of all humans.
“ I think it influences our sense of social connection in the same way as it does when you go
to a party and people say‘Oh I love your dress,’” Rutledge told The Huffington Post.“Biological,social recognition is a real need and there is even an area of the brain that contributes to social activity.”
There is a way to adapt to the growing selfie culture.Whether you’re a selfie novice or an advanced poster,there are always things to be mindful of when you’re posting,Rutledge advises.
She offered two main principles to follow when it comes to posting on social media:
1.The Grandmother Rule
“Don"t post anything online,whether text or visual,that you don"t want grandmother or future
employer to see,” Rutledge said.“Selfies especially.”
2.The Elevator Rule
“You wouldn’t say something in an elevator that you or no one else wants to hear—the whole
world of social media is an elevator,” Rutledge said.“Be aware of the breadth of platform.It"s easy to think you’re sharing a photo with a few people,but Instagram is public and people can come across things.”
小题1:What"s the main idea of the first paragraph?
A.The selfie is taking the lead. |
B.Many people are fond of smartphones. |
C.The selfie will take over everything. |
D.The selfie is an important new word. |
A.need to be acknowledged in social life |
B.want to show off their new dresses |
C.desire to share good things |
D.mean to amuse the public |
A.publisher | B.greenhand | C.novelist | D.celebrity |
A.share photos only on Instagram |
B.talk about their photos in an elevator |
C.be cautious in posting things online |
D.follow rules set by their grandmothers |
Buy Nothing Day is November 29. It’s 25 days before Christmas. It’s after Thanksgiving and often the first day of Christmas shopping. At this time, we see ads in newspapers and on TV telling us to “buy, buy, buy!”
The idea for Buy Nothing Day started in Vancouver, British Columbia. Now people all over the world celebrate Buy Nothing Day. In California, parents and children get together to read stories, sing songs, and paint pictures. The children talk about why they don’t need a lot of toys. This year, in Manchester, England, people dressed up to tell people that we buy too much.
In Albuquerque, New Mexico, high school students wanted to tell other students about Buy Nothing Day. They organized a spaghetti dinner to give people information about Buy Nothing Day. They asked restaurants in the neighborhood to donate the food. They made posters and talked to other students about it. The dinner was a big success, and many students agreed not to buy anything on November 29. The students at high school liked the idea of this new tradition. Next year, they want to have another dinner to tell more people about Buy Nothing Day!
小题1:Which of the following is NOT the day for people to celebrate Buy Nothing Day?
