21、You put a great deal of effort into reaching college of your dreams. It’s time to get started. But what’s next? The beginning of college life can be an exciting but awkward time. Follow these tips to adapt to your new life rapidly and make the most of your college experience.
To save time and money, use the college’s bus system. Taking the bus to school is quick, easy and free in most college towns. 【1】 It’s also a good way to be environmentally aware.
【2】 You might not even need all of the recommended books. New textbooks cost a lot. Try buying used textbooks - it’s a good way to save money and serve the purpose as well.
Never look on college life as endless parties and social activities. There is a whole lot more to college if you’re serious about graduating. 【3】
Be aware that your living environment can largely affect your studies. If the dorm(寝室)doesn’t suit you, consider living at home with your family or renting your own apartment. 【4】 Find a quiet area, like the library, to study. Alternatively, buy some headphones that block out noise.
【5】 Make healthy food choices and watch what you eat. Avoid the foods that are processed or high in sugar. The “freshman 15” is real, which refers to many college students gain at least 15 pounds during the freshman year.
While electives(选修课程) can be helpful when you figure out your major, you shouldn’t entirely rely on them. Clubs and other organizations exist around. Get involved. Make sure, though, that you still have time to study. Having too much on your plate can hurt your grades.
A．Be mindful of your diet.
B．Take relaxed attitudes to your diet.
C．Don’t take part in too many after-class activities.
D．Save pennies on books by waiting until class starts.
E．You won’t have to locate or afford a place to park either.
F．The best location for your studies isn’t always your dorm.
G．Having a good college experience is all about balancing study and fun.
22、As a musher (赶狗拉雪橇的人), you’re responsible for predicting every need your sled dogs have. Before they’re hungry, you’re already thawing (解冻) their next meal. Before they’re tired, you’re planning their next rest. You’re an athlete, but also a coach, nutritionist, and sports psychologist. And you’re their teammate, their family.
When I was growing up, my favorite books were by Gary Paulsen, who often wrote about kids overcoming difficulties in the wilderness, and my mom’s picture books of Alaska. I was especially drawn in by dogsledding; I’d put on Rollerblades (直排轮滑鞋) and tie my dog’s lead around my waist so she could pull me. And at 18, I did what instinctively felt right: I moved to Norway for a year to learn how to be a musher. I just sort of knew somehow that I should do this full-time. That year, living in a training camp 200 miles north of the Arctic Circle, we studied how to build snow caves, care for the dogs, and somehow keep warm when temperatures went down to 30 degrees below zero. It was surreal and terrifying, but I loved it. Instantly I realized this was where I’d spent my life trying to get to.
This year I finished the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race, the thousand-mile race across Alaska. It was the toughest thing I’ve ever done: 13 days of extremely hard work, where every foot we traveled was hard-won. While frozen places can be scary, the more time you spend in them, the more you realize how vulnerable (脆弱的) they are. With climate change, dogsledding could look very different in 50 years, or 20. It’s possible that current mushers could be among the last generations to travel like this. I hope we can be part of a tradition that stretches into the future, not just the past.
【1】What is a musher supposed to do?
A．Keep sled dogs’ meals warm.
B．Plan sled dogs’ mealtimes in advance.
C．Find sled dogs great dog families.
D．Look for cheap rest areas for sled dogs.
【2】Why did the author mention Gary Paulsen?
A．To discuss why people loved his works.
B．To prove kids are curious and determined.
C．To stress it’s challenging to become a musher.
D．To explain what inspired him to be a musher.
【3】How did the author’s training camp go?
A．It had many terrifying campers.
B．It lasted longer than he expected.
C．It led him to unexpected discoveries.
D．It was generally an enjoyable experience.
【4】What did the author find out while doing the Iditarod?
A．The popularity of mushers is fading.
B．There will be more mushers to come.
C．The frozen places are facing an uncertain future.
D．The frozen places will remain unchanged for long.
23、We live in a world where it's often not easy to find someone to trust. A smiling person always inspires trust. Even economists consider that smiles are valuable.A smile may increase other people's trust by about 10%.
People may also smile when they are caught doing bad things.According to a study made by LaFrance and Hecht，this can in fact be to their own advantage.We have a tendency to be kinder towards those who make mistakes if they wear a smile while being caught.Even a guilty smile may help you get away pretty easily when you make mistakes.
We may also smile when we hear a piece of good news.In this case，women tend to smile more often than men.Smiling can also be a means of reducing the pain caused by a troubling situation.Even if we force ourselves to smile when we don't want to，this may be enough to lift our spirits just a little bit.
When we feel angry or anxious，our attention tends to narrow down.We can no longer see what's going on around us and we can only notice what is in front of us.But if we smile，we feel better and increase flexibility of our attention and the ability to think.Smiling can help us focus and understand better.
“Keep on smiling，and the world will smile with you.”One of the greatest social pleasure is to smile and be smiled to in return，especially because this comes like a natural thing.
People who smile often live longer.A study based on some pictures taken of some baseball players suggested that those who used to smile a lot survived about 7 years longer than those who did not smile very often.
