【題目】 Japanese fans who watched their national team be defeated by the Ivory Coast on Saturday showed it is possible to lose graciously (優(yōu)雅地), when they stayed behind after the match to help clean up.

Despite seeing Japan's Blue Samurais lose 2-1 against the Ivory Coast' s national team at the Arena Perambuco in Recife, the Japanese audience armed with plastic bags searched their side of the stadium and gathered up dropped litter. While gathering waste after a sporting event is customary in Japan, the audience' s actions came as a shock to football fans from other countries.

This isn't the first time the Japanese have taken trash outside the stadium. The 1998 FIFA World Cup held in France was the first ever World Cup that Japan had qualified for. After their first group game against Argentina, the Japanese fans gave the world a lesson in politeness and respect by actually cleaning the football stadium seats. They picked up all the trash around them whether it was theirs or not. They then walked out and threw the trash in the garbage cans before leaving.

The all-around cleanliness of Japanese large cities comes as a culture shock to people coming from other big cities in the world. This tidiness is not due to millions of dollars spent on street cleaners and "Let's clean-up our city" campaigns. It's not due to effective public works or community service. It's due to one simple thing: They don't throw their rubbish on the floor. This unique and rare concept allows for both huge cities and the countryside to stay neat and tidy.

To reinforce this behavior, the common signs in Japan ask people to take their litter home with them. Then, to reinforce the sign, hey usually have no garbage cans in the parks. So when faced with the choice of throwing their garbage on the ground or keeping it with them, they keep it. They don’t need a “Don't Litter” or Keep Japan beautiful” sign. They have been doing it their whole lives and are used to taking their garbage with them.

【1】The story in Paragraph 3 mainly shows that___________.

A.Japanese people are used to carrying their own trash

B.Japanese fans have a habit of cleaning up the stadium

C.Japanese fans often clean stadium seats before the game

D.the Japanese are very interested in watching football games

【2】What can we say about Japanese big cities' cleanliness?

A.It has become common practice.B.It is the result of community service.

C.It costs millions of dollars every year.D.It exists because of public campaigns.

【3】Which of the following do the Japanese accept as normal?

A.Punishing the behavior of littering.B.Many signs reading "Don't Litter"."

C.Lots of garbage cans in the parks.D.Taking litter away with them.

【4】The author's attitude to the Japanese audience might be that of____________.

A.criticismB.unconcernC.respectD.doubt

【題目】Easy Ways to Get Over Your Laziness

Laziness appears for very specific reasons. Maybe we don’t know how to do the task. 【1】. Maybe we are just plain scared and our mindset needs adjustment. Whatever the cause, if laziness is interfering with your productivity, you must learn to overcome it. Here are several ways to overcome your laziness so you can reach your goals.

Make sure you’re not overwhelmed(不堪重負(fù)的).

Sometimes we freeze up when we’re overwhelmed by everything we have to do--we freeze up and don’t do anything at all. 【2】. If you have too much on your plate and no idea how you’re going to get it all done, it may be that you’re not lazy but overwhelmed.

Check your motivation.

Similarly, if you’re not motivated it is very easy to slip into what looks like laziness. 【3】. If it’s hard for you to stay connected to what motivates you, make up a list that you can consult when you need an extra push.

【4】.

Your environment and the people around you matter. Are you in a space that makes it easy to stay organized and productive? Do the people around you spend more time complaining than following their passions? If you surround yourself with people who love what they do, and are creative and motivated, their enthusiasm will rub off on you. Make sure that your space gives you everything you need to work well.

Value your time.

【5】. Look at your to-do list and prioritize（優(yōu)先）—you can do it in your head, on paper, or on a computer or phone-based planner. Just knowing where you are makes it harder for deadlines to sneak up on you and easier to work productively, even if it’s in short bursts.

A.Look at your surroundings.

B.To be productive we need to be motivated.

C.Make the most of the time you spend working.

D.So select just one thing at a time, do it, and ignore the rest.

E.Maybe we feel overwhelmed by everything we have to do.

F.We may procrastinate（拖延）because we are not sure what to do next.

G.Do you have realistic expectations on how much you are truly able to accomplish?
