举一反三
When I was a kid in New Jersey of the 1960s, Sunday visits were routine. Most stores were closed, almost nobody worked, and the highways, as a result, were not desperate steeplechases(障碍赛跑) they have become today. My family normally traveled eight city blocks to the home of my grandmother, where adults would sit on the front porch and chat while we children played hide-and-seek.
The Sunday visit was something to desire strongly. It was the repetition to church, our reward for an hour of devotion, an opportunity to take advantage of the fact that Dad was not at work, we were not in school, and there was no housework that couldn’t wait until Monday. Sunday was, indeed, different from the other days of the week, because everyone seemed to be on the same schedule, which means that there was one day when everyone seemed to have time for everybody else.
Sunday as a day of rest is, or was, so deeply rooted in the culture that it’s surprising to find that, in a short span of time, it has almost entirely lost this association. In my childhood, it was assumed that everyone would either be home or visiting someone else’s home on Sunday. But now the question is, “What do you plan to DO this Sunday?” The answer can range from going to the mall, to participating in a road race, to Montreal for lunch. If one were to respond, “I’m making a Sunday visit to family,” such an answer would feel strange, which sounds like an echo from another era.
I suppose I should be grateful to live in Maine, a state of small towns, abundant land and tight relationships. Even though folks work as hard here as they do anywhere else, the state’s powerfully rural feature still keeps at least remnants(残余部分) of the moral of yesterday’s America, where people had to depend on one another in the face of economic vagaries(反复无常的情况) and a challenging environment.
小题1:The writer’s general impression of the Sunday in the past was a day when__.
A.everyone was paying a visit to some relatives far away |
B.everyone seemed to be free for others |
C.Dad was not at work while Mom was busy cleaning the house |
D.nearly every adult would go to church and children weren’t at school |
A.people nowadays prefer staying at home on Sunday |
B.such answers are rarely heard in our modern society |
C.people in the city dislike being disturbed on Sunday |
D.visiting someone on Sunday was routine in the past |
A.people in Maine suffer more from economic depression and the changed environment |
B.people in Maine have abandoned their tradition and lived an absolutely new life |
C.land in Maine is short, thus the relationship between people is tense |
D.people in Maine tend to help each other out of necessity |
A.Doing many activities on Sunday is beneficial. |
B.We should often travel a long distance to visit some friends and relatives. |
C.Nowadays, Sunday has almost lost its association as a day of rest. |
D.We should abandon some old tradition. |
Here are some examples of how to best use the power of the mind:
During the 2004 Olympics,one of the swimmers told of how she would fall asleep each night with the picture of a clock in her mind. It was the timer’s clock she would see at the end of her Olympic swim and it always had her world-record-breaking time on it.
In his pre-shot routine, Tiger Woods never varies the number of practice swings or intensity of his concentration.The pre-shot routine is always the same so that the stroke will always be the same.
Michael Phelps,American Swimming Gold Medalist, always stretches out his back and arms by swinging both arms three times before his event. Not 2,not 4: always 3. He is anchoring(固定)in his winning state of mind and state of body as well as stretching.
In athletics, an anchor is a gesture or series of gestures that put you into the frame-of mind(and body)you want to be in to win.Repetition is what makes it work .That means practice,practice,practice ---- with your body as well as your mind.
Begin right now creating a ritual(固定程序)before you exercise.Visualize yourself doing whatever you do faster, longer, higher—whatever adverb works best for your particular activity. Then begin to mentally practice it. See or imagine yourself-----with your ideal body ---- doing your activity better, faster, longer, etc. Using both the power of your brain and the activity of your body, soon you will be better and fitter as you use the Olympics to help you create a happier and healthier you.
小题1:From the third paragraph, we know_______.
A.the swimmer has already broken the world record once |
B.the swimmer was using her mind power to build up confidence |
C.the swimmer was too nervous to go to sleep before the Games |
D.the swimmer has a problem in counting |
A.golf players always do the same pre—shots before events |
B.Tiger Woods attaches great importance to mind power |
C.Tiger Woods doesn’t want to give away his skills before events |
D.golf players never change their habits |
A.Because back and arms are the most important parts for a swimmer. |
B.Because this is the best stretching for any swimmer. |
C.Because this is the best way to adjust his state |
D.Because he wants to confuse his opponents (对手). |
A.an anchor is the state of mind and body you want to win |
B.you can make an anchor work by constant practice |
C.the anchor is mainly related to the practice of the body in athletics |
D.an anchor can make sure that you will do well in sports |
A.To introduce some interesting habits of several famous athletes. |
B.To remind us to take warming-up activities before taking exercise. |
C.To encourage us to learn the warming-up exercise from successful athletes. |
D.To advise us to learn to use the power of the mind. |

In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition(探险) towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered frostbite(冻疮), ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit, pulling his supply-loaded sled(雪橇) up and over rocky ice.
Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pole, and he’s skied more of the North Pole by himself than any other British man. His old playmates would not believe the change.

The journey to Morocco something inside me. I managed to cope with my anxiety. The sense of was overwhelming and still to this day when I get afraid of going somewhere alone, I remember how it felt when I arrived in Morocco.
Upon arrival I was so for the generous welcome I received. My friend’s family had arranged a welcome party. The people were so loving toward me. As a moment of felt in a faraway village, this reminded me that I was “good enough”, which helped to my anxiety.
Waking up the next day, in the morning light, I saw the area where we were. I was by how rural it was – and the realization that these people had very few .
In the days afterwards, I traveled around Morocco. We went to Marrakesh and the Atlas mountains. We had the most amazing food – lots of fresh fruits and vegetables.
At the end of my something inside me had changed. I realized I had not felt anxious for nearly two weeks.
Experiencing a different culture far away from home helped me to realize what is important in life, what really , and with that my anxiety . When I returned home I was much more active in my anxiety. Working with people, helping them their anxiety, is how I can share the love I found in Morocco.

Listening to her, the older woman the younger woman’s distress and knew she must help her. She also knew she could ease her pain, but she could teach.
Then, she said. “There are things you need to do. The first is extremely difficult. Tonight, take your best pillows and open a small hole in each one. Then, the sun rises, you must put a single feather on the doorstep of each house in town. When you are through, to me. If you’ve done the first thing , I’ll tell you the second.”
The young woman hurried home to prepare for her chore, the pillows were very to her and very expensive.
All night long, she went from doorstep to doorstep. Her fingers were . The wind was so sharp that it caused her eyes to water, but she ran on through the streets, there was something she could do to put things the way they once were. Finally she placed the last feather on the steps of the last house. Just as the sun rose, she returned to the older woman.
She was exhausted but , thinking that her efforts would be rewarded.
“Now,” said the wise woman, “Go back and your pillows. Then everything will be as it was before.”
The young woman was stunned, “You know that’s impossible! The wind each feather as fast as I placed them on the doorsteps! You didn’t say I had to get them back! If this is the second , then things will never be the same.”
“That’s true,” said the older woman. “Never forget. Each of your words is like a feather in the wind. Once , no amount of effort, how heartfelt or sincere, can ever return them to your mouth. Choose your words well and guard them most of all in the presence of those you love.”
