In a world where comparisons happen non-stop, it is difficult to look outside yourself and to ever be 36 with who you are. There’s always someone who’s a bit 37 . The only solution is to reach 38 and measure against what Warren Buffett calls your own inner yardstick. There is no more 39 measure for comparison than who you were yesterday, last week or last decade, when you were at your 40 .
Nothing useful ever comes from comparison to others. Either you see yourself as better than someone and you get 41 , or you see someone else as better than you and you feel like all your hard work is for 42 . It is a fool’s game. Not one of us is exactly 43 . The only
direct and honest comparison is 44 yourself. Everything else is apples to oranges.
My opinion is that you are only 45 to compare yourself to someone else if their life 46 is the same as your own. Good luck finding that 47 . And one thing is for sure. No matter how hard you work and how dedicated you are, there will always be someone who can run a little faster, jump a little higher, score a little better or look a little nicer in a swimsuit. And if there’s not, you can 48 someone is coming up fast 49 you. So how can you always win in life? Become your best 50 . Having an image of your most recent past limits is the perfect thing to 51 you to the next level. If you ran 7 flights of stairs yesterday, then do 8 today. Who 52 if the guy next to you did 15? It doesn’t make a bit of 53 . You are a more 54 person today than you were yesterday. Your own 55 is all you need. 36. A. patient 37. A. stronger 38. A. inside 39. A. accurate 40. A. end

More teachers are choosing to reward students with field trips to places they think kids enjoy, like the mall or the movies. That means educational field trips to museums and theaters are declining. Jay P. Greene , head of the Department of Education Reform at the University of Arkansas, blames this trend on the pressures of standardized testing. He says teachers want to reward their students for hard work.
The decline in what Greene calls \"culturally-enriching field trips\" will hurt disadvantaged kids the most. If schools don't introduce them to museums and other cultural institutions, they are unlikely to experience them, according to Greene. \"Just as we want our kids to be aware of good literature and good science, we want them to be aware of good art and good theater,\" Greene told TFK. \"Museums take kids out of their narrow worlds and introduce them to new people, places and ideas. \"
Greene points out additional benefits of these \"educational field trips\" . He did a study of
more than 10,000 students who toured an art museum in Arkansas. The study showed that students acquired critical-thinking skills even on this short field trip. \"They became more observant,\" Greene explained. \"They learned to look closely at art, notice details, and think about what the details mean. \"
A trip to an art museum is the kind of field trip JoAnne Winnick finds valuable. She teaches fifth grade at Clara Barton Elementary, in Anaheim, California. Winnick says field trips should be educational, to promote the sciences or the arts. In her school district, before funding was cut for field trips, fourth graders studied wetlands at nearby Newport Beach. Fifth graders studied chaparral, a dense growth of shrubs, in Modjeska Canyon.
On these outings, students did hands-on experiments. They hiked and observed nature close-up. Such activities allow students to deepen their understanding of science concepts they would otherwise learn only from books. \"We have limited time to teach all the standards,\" Winnick told TFK. \"To take precious time for reward trips would be most unwise. \"
Annica Lowek is a fifth grade teacher at KIPP Infinity Charter School, in New York City. She argues that even a fun field trip can be converted to an educational experience. \"Anytime you leave the building, you're giving kids a chance to practice what you're teaching them in school,\" she says. \"That could be math or science, or it could be simply learning how to behave on the subway. \"
Lowek's students have experienced all kinds of field trips. They've been on camping trips and to an arcade. Four times a year, they go to a theater in New York City, where they see plays, operas, musicals and puppet shows. “The kids think the shows are super fun,\" Lowek told TFK. \" But teachers know these are valuable learning experiences. \"
58. More teachers reward students with field trips to the mall or the movies in that________ . A. they believe students can learn more from these places than from museums B. the number of museums and other cultural institutions is less than before C. they think such trips will encourage their students to work even harder D. the students are suffering more and more pressures of standardized testing 59. According to Jay P. Greene, students ________ . A. should become good artists or good scientists B. have to be taken to the mall or the movies
C. don't have to experience literature and science D. should be introduced to new people, places and ideas 60. It can be inferred that Winnick is against going to________ . A. malls
B.theatres
C. science labs D. museums
61. From the last two paragraphs, we can learn that Annica Lowek________ . A. is an enthusiastic and experienced teacher B. doesn't focus on students' academic behavior C. sings a high praise of Greene's opinion D. doesn't oppose taking time for reward trips C
The evolution of the first animals may have oxygenated（供氧）Earth's oceans. New research led by the University of Exeter challenges the long held belief that oxygenation of the atmosphere and oceans was a precondition for the evolution of complex life forms.
The study, published in the journal Nature Geoscience, builds on the recent work of scientists in Denmark who found that sponges(海绵动物)——the first animals to evolve——require only small amounts of oxygen.
Professor Tim Lenton of the University of Exeter, who led the new study, said: “We argue that the evolution of the first animals could have played a key role in the widespread oxygenation of the deep oceans. This in turn may have facilitated the evolution of more complex, mobile animals. \"
Critical to determining oxygen levels in the deep ocean is the balance of oxygen supply and demand. Demand for oxygen is created by the sinking of dead organic material into the deep ocean. The new study argues that the first animals reduced this supply of organic matter——both directly and indirectly.
Sponges feed by pumping water through their bodies, \"digesting\" the tiny particles of organic matter, and thus helping oxygenate the shelf seas that they live in. By oxygenating more of the bottom waters, the first animals actually increased the removal of the essential nutrient phosphorus(磷)in the ocean. This in turn reduced the productivity of the whole ocean ecosystem, lowering oxygen demand and thus oxygenating the deep ocean.
A more oxygen-rich ocean created ideal condition for more complex mobile animals to
evolve, because they have a higher requirement for oxygen, These included the first predatory(肉食的）animals with guts(内脏）that started to eat one another, marking the beginning of the type of food webs we are familiar with today.
Professor Simon Poulton of the University of Leeds, who is a co-author of the study, added: \"This study provides a possible mechanism for ocean oxygenation without the requirement for a rise in atmospheric oxygen. It therefore questions whether the long-standing belief that there was a major rise in atmospheric oxygen at this time is correct. We simply don t know the answer to this at present , which is ultimately key to understanding how our planet evolved to its current habitable state. Geochemists need to come up with new ways to explain oxygen levels on the early Earth. \"
62. The underlined word \"facilitated\" in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “_____”.
A.prevented B. witnessed C.interrupted D. promoted 63. From Paragraphs 4 to 6, we can infer that_____.
A. the sinking of dead organic material into the deep ocean produces oxygen B. complex animals consume the same amount of oxygen as sponges C. phosphorus can keep the productivity of the ocean ecosystem
D. the existence of the first animals marks the beginning of modem food webs 64. From the last paragraph, we can learn Professor Simon Poulton believes that _____. A. ocean oxygenation does not necessarily require a rise in atmosphere oxygen B. oxygen increased greatly in the air as the first animals oxygenate the oceans C. their study answers the question of how the Earth evolved to the present state D. their study gives a new explanation for the high oxygen content in the air. 65. The main purpose of the passage is to_____ .
A. introduce two opposite opinions on how the first animals oxygenated oceans B. present the view that the first animals played.an active role in oxygenating oceans C. analyze how atmospheric oxygen stepped up the evolution of oceanic animals D. explain how oceanic oxygen determines the amount of atmospheric oxygen
D
A few common misconceptions. Beauty is only skin-deep. One’s physical assets and liabilities don' t count all that much in a managerial career. A woman should always try to look her best.
Over the last 30 years, social scientists have conducted more than 1,000 studies of how we react to beautiful and not- so-beautiful people. The virtually unanimous conclusion: Looks do matter, more than most of us realize. The data suggest, for example, the physically attractive individuals are more likely to be treated well by their parents, sought out as friends, and pursued romantically. With the possible exception of women seeking managerial jobs they are also more likely to be hired, paid well, and promoted.
Un-American, you say, unfair and extremely unbelievable? Once again, the scientists have caught us mouthing pieties (虔诚) while acting just the contrary. Their typical experiment works something like this. They give each member of a group--college students, perhaps, or teachers or corporate personnel managers a piece of paper relating an individual' s accomplishments. Attached to the paper is a photograph. While the papers all say exactly the same thing the pictures are different. Some show a strikingly attractive person, some an average-looking character, and some an unusually unattractive human being. Group members are asked to rate the individual on certain attributes, anything from personal warmth to the likelihood that he or she will be promoted. Almost invariably, the better looking the person in the picture, the higher the person is rated. In the phrase, borrowed from Sappho, that the social scientists use to sum up the common perception, what is beautiful is good.
In business, however, good looks cut both ways for women, and deeper than for men. A Utah State University professor, who is an authority on the subject, explains: In terms of their careers, the impact of physical attractiveness on males is only modest. But its potential impact on females can be tremendous, making it easier, for example, for the more attractive to get jobs where they are in the public eye. on another note, though, there is enough literature now for us to conclude that attractive women who aspire (追求) to managerial positions do not get on as well as who may be less attractive.
66. In \"Beauty is only skin-deep\-deep\" can be replaced by______.
A. decorating B. superficial C. expressive D. demanding
67. \"One's physical assets and liabilities don' t count all that much in a managerial career.\"(para l) can be interpreted as______.
A. whether or not one looks good or bad, it doesn't affect much one's managerial career B. in one's managerial career, he may deal with cases like assets and liabilities C. in one's managerial career, he may rarely deal with cases like assets and liabilities D. whether or not one looks good or bad, it may affect much one's managerial career 68. The result of research carried out by social scientists show that______. A. people do not realize the importance of looking one's best B. women in pursuit of managerial jobs are not likely to be paid well C. good -looking women aspire to managerial positions
D. attractive people generally have an advantage over those who are not 69. \"Good looks cut both ways for women\" (Para.5) means that______. A. attractive women have tremendous potential impact on public job B. good-looking women always get the best of everything C. being attractive is not always an advantage for women
D. attractive women do not do as well as unattractive women in managerial positions 70. It can be inferred from the passage that in the business world______.
A. handsome men are not affected as much by their looks as attractive women are B. physically attractive women who are in the public eye usually do quite well
C. physically attractive men and women who are in the public eye usually get along quite well D. good looks are important for women as they are for men

Less is more. This is why we say: reduce things by half instead of doubling them, get rid of junk instead of piling it up, relax instead of stressing, and slow down instead of speeding up. The application of these principles in your everyday life in a conscious way will be beneficial. You will then find yourself well along on your journey to simplification. Separate Your actions
When you concentrate on one task, you find you have energy that you didn't even know you had. Just imagine: you are at a fair and you have to carry two heavy pigs over 100 yards. If you keep grabbing one and then the other, it will take forever, because one of them will keep slipping out from under your arm and running off. But if you tie one pig in a place, pick up the other, gather all your strength and make a dash for the finish line, pause for a moment, run back and get the other one, and with great determination, carry the second pig to the finish line, then you can be sure of success. Relieve Pressure by Firmly Saying “No”
The pressure at work is on the increase in all occupations. In the modern nuclear family, the expectations that formerly would have been shared among all the relatives are now concentrated on the individual partner.
If you have the feeling that 24 hours per day are not enough for all the things you need to do, then it's not because the day has too few hours, but because you have too many activities. A simple fact is that overloaded people often tend to forget. The solution is equally simple: refuse to accept so many work assignments in your private life or your working life. Allow Yourself to Be Weak
\"I can handle stress\" is regarded as a positive statement in the world of work. People who can handle stress are given more and more to cope with -- until one day they break.
Pay careful attention to the signs that tell you that you are under more stress than you can cope with. These signals can come from various areas of life. You become ill, or your work efficiency decreases.
If you have any of these symptoms, change your life goals and decrease your tolerance of stress. Say quite openly, \"I can't manage that.” Stop Expecting Everything to Be Perfect
“If only I were slimmer, more beautiful, richer, more clever, then I would be happier.” This is a dream that makes a lot of people ill, depressed, and unhappy. Life has its flaws, defects, corners, and edges. Only those who accept this reality can lead a really full life. Of course there are activities in which errors are dangerous: driving a car; crossing the road. But life doesn't consist entirely of these things. In among them there is a lot of room for small and large mistakes.
Escape Now and Then
Successful people all have their own places where they can withdraw in order to work. Find out which places improve your creativity. For me it's the train. When I know that I'm going to be traveling for four hours without phone calls and people knocking on my door, I find my mind is free and I can read or write complex articles. There can be problems working on the train, of course: if the person sitting opposite you keeps talking away, or if train trips make you tired ( some people fall asleep after a few miles)

As more and more Chinese tourists travel abroad, some of their behavior is raising eyebrows. According to the latest 2012 LivingSocial survey, Chinese tourists were recently ranked second
behind US citizens in a global poll of the worst travelers.
Liu Deqian, researcher and deputy director of the Tourism Research Center at Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said that Chinese visitors often lack an awareness of being polite or behaving appropriately. “On their first or second time abroad, Chinese visitors tend to forget that they are visiting other people’s homeland and overlook the manners of their hosts,” he said. Zhang Guanren, 28, who helped organize package tours to Australia, observed that on international flights, the first passengers to stand up and reach for luggage while the plane is still landing are often Chinese. “Our compatriots (同胞) seem to lack patience, and they’re forever in a rush to do things and fear lagging behind others.”
Some disregard (漠视) rules in local wildlife parks: They disturb koalas in their natural habitats by touching them, even though the local guide has warned them against doing so. “This is far from being eco-friendly,” said Zhang. 【写作内容】

W: I’m glad to hear that. Tell me, have you ever used a floor-polishing machine before? M: No, I haven’t. Could you show me how? W: Certainly. First, spray the wax on the floor. M: I see.
W: Then, press here to turn the machine on … Okay so far. M: I follow you.

M: Is this table on the corner Okay? W: Sure. We can sit here.
M: Gee. You’ve hardly got anything on your plate. W: Yeah. I guess I’m just not that hungry. M: What’s the matter? Aren’t you feeling well?
W: Well, I’ve been really worried. It’s my car. It’s in the shop again. M: Really? What’s wrong this time?
W: I don’t know exactly. Something’s wrong with the brakes, I think.
M: Well, at least that shouldn’t cost you much to fix. Parts are cheaper for all the American cars like yours. Did the mechanic say how much it would cost? W: He said he would call me later today about the cost. M: Watch out he doesn’t try to take advantage of you. W: What do you mean?
M: Well, some car mechanics, if they think that someone doesn’t know much about cars, they might try to overcharge that person.

The passage mainly tells us that the Chinese tourists ranked the second in a global poll of worst travelers, as they behaved impolitely and improperly when travelling abroad.
Actually, we can find some impolite and improper behavior when we travel at home. For example, some travelers drop litter anywhere at scenic spots, smoke in the wooded mountains or take photos when they are not supposed to. The behavior, on one hand, destroys the beauties of nature and affects other tourists’ moods, and on the other hand, it will produce a very bad national image.
So it is necessary to be a civilized tourist. To do this, we should be aware of travel manners, such as speaking and behaving politely, especially in public places. In addition, we should familiarize ourselves with the local customs in advance, so as to avoid misunderstandings or troubles. Last but not least, do as the rules of scenic spots require us to do.
