26、How to develop self-discipline (自律)
Face the reality
It’s easy for us to make excuses for ourselves or show ourselves in a better way than our actual situation. 【1】, we have to accept the truth. Sometimes people make comments on our reality. It is hard to hear, but we need to accept the truth before promising to change.
Set clear goals
We have to keep in mind where we want to go and what we want to finish. If we don’t set clear goals, we’ll float around like feathers in the wind. Then show these goals where you will see them every day. 【2】. So I made a plan each day and ran 15 miles a week. Every day, I looked at those goals and made sure I achieved them.
【3】
No one likes to sleep in more than I do. I am entirely a night owl (夜猫子). However, when I’m in the habit of getting up early, I am much more disciplined and productive. Getting up early doesn’t give us the ability to create miracles, but it does help us start our day’s work in a focused way.
Do the small things
【4】. It doesn’t happen that way. Self-discipline starts by performing small and ordinary activities consistently. Every small act of faithfulness makes your self-discipline stronger.
Keep track of your progress
It’s pointless to have goals if you aren’t measuring whether or not you are moving toward them. Like I said, I need to update my spreadsheet every day. When I don’t track my progress, I stop doing things I need to do and become lazy. It’s easy to lack discipline when you lose focus on where you’re going. 【5】.
A．Get up early
B．But if we want to change
C．And when I breathe deeply
D．I ended up in bed for six weeks
E．We all want big changes to happen quickly
F．Several years ago, I wanted to lose 20 pounds
G．Keeping track helps you stay in the right direction
27、Snow leopards（豹）are so hard to photograph that scientists aren't even sure how many of these endangered animals still live in the wild.
The Snow Leopard Conservancy（SLC）set up 20 cameras in Russia in 2010 to learn more about the big cats. After a full six months, they had exactly zero picture! That's when the organization understood they needed help. And the only people who could help them in finding the leopards were the very people from whom they wanted to protect the animals-local hunters（猎人）.
Hunting snow leopards is against the law in Russia, but in the terrible climate of Siberia, the few people living there had to turn to poaching（盗猎）to feed their families.
In 2013, Russian naturalist Sergei Spitsyn approached Mergen Markov, a local hunter, and told him his project. Markov agreed to set up the camera where he knew he would find leopards, and it worked.
Markov, once a poacher, works full time for the conservationists now and has 10 cameras monitoring leopards. "I visit each camera once a month. I have known this whole region since I was a child," he said proudly.
The World Wildlife Fund（WWF）began working with other local villagers in 2015. The village would be paid 40,000 rubles at the end of the year if the picture of a snow leopard is caught. WWF also rents horses from the villagers so that they do not need to make money by poaching anymore. "Today there are far fewer leopard poachers but leopards still get caught in traps set for other animals, so I have to stay watchful," said Markov.
Changing guns for cameras has made a big difference in the lives of these former poachers, the village, and the Russian snow leopards. The number of snow leopards has been rising and their population is expected to recover to normal levels within 10 years.
【1】Why was no picture of snow leopards taken in six months?
A．SLC's 20 cameras failed to work properly.
B．The researchers knew little about the animals
C．The local poachers destroyed these cameras.
D．The number of snow leopards was too small.
【2】What did Sergei Spitsyn persuade Markov to do?
A．Find the poachers.
B．Work for SLC.
C．Catch more leopards.
D．Repair cameras.
【3】Why did the WWF begin working with local villagers?
A．To prevent villagers hunting animals.
B．To help villagers make a living.
C．To get some pictures of snow leopards.
D．To rent their horses at a low price.
【4】How can we describe the WWF's working with the villagers?
A．Kill two birds with one stone.
B．Many men, many minds.
C．Practice makes perfect.
D．Old habits die hard.
28、Middle school teachers rely on textbooks to teach science, and mathematics. 【1】 . It’s because as elementary school students they were never taught how to properly read a textbook.
Instruct your children to look at headings and bold words to see what will be discussed. They can also look up any words in the textbook wordlist. 【2】 . You may also want to remind them to pay close attention to photographs, and charts which contain important information. The more information they skim, the more likely they will grasp the chapter.
【3】 . Textbooks are designed to present maximum information with few wasted words and it can be difficult to remember all of it. Show your children how to organize their notes by chapter. If your children are confused about any of their notes they can find the page for clarification.
After your children have read their textbook, ask them questions about what they read. This will help them see if they have comprehended the text. If your children do not remember the crucial information, encourage them to reread. 【4】 . If your children complete these tests, they will know which sections they need to reread.
Some textbooks also have websites and other suggested books. If your children are having a tough time comprehending what they are reading, these resources could be what they need to fully grasp their assignments. 【5】 .
If your children still have comprehension problems after taking the suggestions above, contact your children’s teachers.
A．Take notes while reading.
B．Numbering pages makes for an easy reference.
C．Many textbooks also have quizzes at the end of chapters.
D．These reading tasks, however, are usually ineffective for seventh graders.
E．Those subjects are thought to be something that beat teenagers’ brains out.
F．This ensures they know all of the important vocabulary words before reading.
G．Help your middle school student find these resources on the computer or in a library.
29、 A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It's great first for what it contains：the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sports to business，from fashion to science, and the range of comment and special feature(特写) as well，from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art theatre and music.
A newspaper is even greater for the way one reads it：never completely, never straight through，but always by jumping from here to there, in and out, glancing at one piece，reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the text.
A good modern newspaper offers a variety(多样性) to attract many different readers, but far more than the reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it also mean that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient(短暂的) value.
For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper：what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that day's paper, his own selection and order, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need and without wasting time，demands skill and self-awareness as you change and apply the techniques of reading.
【1】A modern newspaper is great for all the following EXCEPT its________.
A.wide variety B.similar style
C.speed in reporting news D.popularity
【2】According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the same newspaper is that ________.
A.people look through the news they are interested in
B.different people prefer different newspapers
C.people are rarely interested in the same kind of news
D.people have different views about what a good newspaper is
【3】It can be concluded from the passage that newspaper readers________.
A.apply reading techniques skillfully
B.jump from one newspaper to another
C.appreciate the variety of a newspaper
D.usually read a newspaper selectively
【4】Which can be a suitable title for the passage?
A.How to read newspaper? B.Where to find a good newspaper?
C.What is a good newspaper? D.Newspaper.
30、This is a taxi ride that I’ll never forget. I drove my taxi for a _________ and one night at 2:30 a.m, I got a call for taxi. I drove there and found the building was _________ except for a single light. I walked to the door and _________. “Just a minute,” answered a _________ elderly voice.
A small woman in her 80s came out and we got in the taxi. She gave me an _________ and then asked, “Could you drive through downtown?”
“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly.
“Oh, I don’t _________ ,”she said. “I’m in no hurry. I’m on my way to a hospice (收容所) .” Through the rear-view mirror, I could see her wet eyes. “I don’t have any _________ left to care for me,” she _________. “The doctor says I don’t have much time.” I quietly reached over and shut off the meter.
“Which _________ would you like me to take?” I asked.
For the next two hours, we drove through the city where she and her __________ had lived when they were newly-married. She had me __________ in front of a furniture warehouse that had once been a __________ where she had gone dancing as a girl. Morning coming, she suddenly said, “I’m tired. Let’s go now.”
We drove in silence to the address she had given me.
“How much do I __________ you?” she asked, reaching into her purse.
“Nothing,” I said.
“You gave an old woman a little moment of __________. Thank you,” she said.
I didn’t __________ any more passengers that shift, lost in thought: Great moments often catch us unaware, beautifully wrapped in what others may consider a small one.
