A great life doesn’t happen by accident．A great life is the result of arranging wisely Your time，energy，thoughts，and hard work towards what you want your life to be．A great life is the result of using what you get in a creative and thoughtful way，instead of just what comes next．Make these”secrets”to fit your own needs and style，and start creating your own great life today!

    Simplify．People don’t interpret what simplify means in a correct way．It’s not a way to

remove work from your life．When you focus on simplifying your life，you free up energy and

time for the work that you enjoy and the purpose for which you are here．

  Effort．Creating a great life requires that you make some adjustments．It may mean

re．evaluating how you spend your time，or choosing to spend your money in a different way．

It may mean looking for new ways to spend your energy．Life will reward your best effort．

  Create priorities．It’s easy to spend your days just responding to the next thing that gets

your attention，instead of intentionally using the time，energy and money you have in a way

that’s important to you．Focus on getting rid of the obstacles that get in the way of you making

sure you are honoring your priorities．

  Reserves．A great life is the result of having reserves--reserves of things，time，space，

energy，money．Reserves are important because they reduce the fear of consequences，and that

allows you to make decisions that are based on what you really want instead of what the fear

decides for you．

  Eliminate distractions．Look around at someone’s life you admire．Ask them how they did

it．Find ways to free up your mental energy for things that are more important to you．

  Thoughts．A great life is the result of controlling your thoughts so that you accept and

allow for the possibility that it actually can happen to you! People who have specific goals

look for ways to achieve them．Believing there is a solution to the same old problems you

meet with year after year is really important to creating a life that you love．

    Start．There’s the old saying everyone’s familiar with”a journey of a thousand miles

begins with a single step．”There’s no better time to start than today．Today，right now，is the

right day to start to take a step in the direction of your heart’s desires．It’s what you do

TODAY that will make a difference in your life tomorrow．

During a recent Senior Three English lesson, the teacher caught Xiao Li, a female student, busily typing messages on her cell-phone.

She was actually blogging about what was being taught in the classroom, sharing her opinions about the information and material with her classmates and other students.
The case aroused a heated discussion among teachers and students city-wide. Miss Li, an English teacher from another nearby school said, “I am amazed at how creative the students can be when writing on their blogs. To me it’s a great way for students to improve their writing skills while writing about personal feelings and experiences.” But other teachers are worried that blog-addiction may interfere with their students’ study.
A supporter and classmate of Xiao Li said, “We love her blog! We all read it each day and can’t wait to see what she writes about next. Her interesting stories and great suggestions on study really help to motivate us. And it adds a little fun to our stressful life.” Another student blogger admitted that he often works late into the night, writing his blog and responding to comments posted there. “Sometimes I don’t even have time to finish my homework. I can’t help myself. I really have a lot to say.”

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2011-2012學(xué)年福建省高三11月學(xué)段考試英語(yǔ)題 題型：閱讀理解

BEIJING — After a night of wining and dining with 50 of China’s richest people, Warren Buffet and Bill Gates told the journalists on Thursday that the biggest difference between eating with Chinese tycoons(企業(yè)界大亨) and Western ones was the food.

    “I was amazed last night, really, at how similar the questions and discussions and all that were to those in the dinners we had in the U.S.,” said Mr. Buffett.

    Mr. Buffett and Mr. Gates, two of the best known Westerners here, announced in September, 2010 that they planned to invite 50 wealthy Chinese tycoons to dinner in Beijing to encourage philanthropy(慈善事業(yè)) among China’s new rich.

    On Thursday, the two men pronounced the dinner a great success, saying that two-thirds of those invited had shown up, and that more than half of them had offered their own ideas on how Chinese philanthropy should work.

    The guest list wasn’t made public, but the Chinese news media reported that it included Jet Li, the movie star; Niu Gensheng, the founder of a Chinese dairy business; and Pan Shiyi and Zhang Xin, who control the SOHO China real estate(房地產(chǎn)) empire.

    As with four earlier dinners held in the United States, Mr. Buffett and Mr. Gates said, no one at the Beijing event was asked to donate money or to promise to engage in charity. “Bill and I won’t be calling anybody. What happens in China will depend on what the Chinese people feel about a project of this sort,” said Mr. Buffett.

    China is widely reported to be second only to the United States in the number of dollar billionaires. Mr. Gates and Mr. Buffett said the nation was unique because its wealthy class had arisen almost wholly in the past 30 years, so the philanthropic practices established among European and American dynasties are new here, and open to change.

    The two said the dinner wasn’t a long planned matter, but an offshoot of a trip that Mr. Buffett had already scheduled to Guangdong and Hunan Provinces, where BYD Company, a maker of clean-energy automobiles, has factories. Mr. Buffett’s company, Berkshire Hathaway, holds a 10% stake(股金) in the company.

    But Mr. Gates suggested that their philanthropic trip wasn’t yet over. “We may do an event in India,” he said.

1.What is the text mainly about?

   A. A brief analysis of future philanthropy.

   B. The development of Chinese philanthropy.

   C. An introduction on Mr. Buffett and Mr. Gates’ trip in China.

   D. A charity dinner held in Beijing by Mr. Buffett and Mr. Gates.

2.According to the first two paragraphs, Mr Buffett really wanted to say that ________.

   A. the dinner was quite a success   

   B. the food in the dinner was very delicious

   C. Chinese tycoons are similar to Western ones

   D. it was pleasing to discuss with Chinese tycoons

3.We can learn from the text that __________.

   A. China has the largest number of dollar billionaires in Asia

   B. many people have promised to donate money at dinner

   C. Beijing will be the last stop of their philanthropic trip

   D. the Chinese news media published the complete guest list of the dinner

4.The underlined words “an offshoot” in Paragraph 8 can probably be replaced by “________”.

   A. a report          B. an addition        C. a beginning            D. an end
