2.Some days you wake up and right when you are going to begin your work,you feel a presence within you that stops you from doing so.You don't want to work today and you don't feel motivated to do anything but just escape.Without this motivation,you feel a little hopeless,lost,and stuck.But sometimes even if there is no motivation,you can still feel inspired.
Connect the Dots
Steve Jobs has never finished college.After studying in college for 6months,he couldn't see the value in it and dropped out.Not knowing where to go in life,he decided to take a class in calligraphy (書(shū)法).Ten years later,he designed something that has affected the different types of typography (排版) that we use today.If he hadn't dropped out in college,he would never have taken that calligraphy class,and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography.
Sometimes when you're trying to reach a goal,it's impossible to connect the dots where you currently are.Somehow you just have to trust yourself,and have faith that you will reach your dreams,despite not having the slightest clue or perfectly laid-out road to where you are going.Nobody can connect the dots looking forward; you only can connect them when you're looking backwards.You have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in the future; you have to trust in something,whether it's destiny (天數(shù),命運(yùn)) or not,but trusting yourself is the first step towards feeling inspired and having the motivation to move forward.
Perfect Your Environment
Look around your room right now or your workspace.Does it inspire you?Does it give you motivation?Is it noisy or quiet?Sometimes the hardest thing we do to ourselves is try to force ourselves to work in an area that is subconsciously telling us,"I can't work here."
And when you are constantly trying to discipline yourself,you will feel worse and be less productive.Instead try to build your ideal workplace and ideal time.Perhaps add a piece of artwork or a quote of your favorite person nearby you on the wall.Maybe add a beautiful plant in the corner to give you inspiration.If you feel more energy and enthusiasm during the night,schedule your day to work at midnight if you can.If you can realize the power of having a productive environment,you will naturally feel inspired and motivated to get work done.
Don't Work So Hard
If you're trying to force your way into taking action,it could be a sign that you are working too hard.Most people won't wake up and waste an hour imagining,thinking further,or confirming,and the first thing they think about is asking"what do I need to do today?"And when they get the answer,they feel miserable,as if their work suddenly weighs them down.But if you spend time focusing on your goals,you'll receive good feelings-feelings that help you feel inspired and motivated to take real action.
Don't try to paddle upstream.That just basically equals saying to yourself that you need to force yourself to work hard every day.Instead,paddle along the stream of the river.Trust yourself,let your environment work in your favor,and spend some a little bit of time putting yourself in a state before you work.Inspiration will come to you from different ways-inside and outside-and give you the motivation to guide yourself towards reaching your dreams.
Brief IntroductionLacking motivation makes you feel (71)unwilling  to do anything and even feel hopeless,lost and stuck.However you can still feel inspired sometimes though you don't have (72)motivation.
(73)How/waysto feel
inspired
Connect
the dots
●Steve Jobs'success indicates that the dots will somehow connect in the future,(74)despite the fact that you don't have the slightest clue or perfectly laid-out road to where you go currently.
●Just (75)trust yourself that you will reach your goal,which is the first step towards inspiration and motivation.
Perfect the
environment
●The worst thing is that you're (76)forced/made to work in an area where you are unable to work.
●You are supposed to build an ideal workplace and ideal time,and then you will be likely to feel better and (77)produce  more.
●A perfect environment will naturally (78)help/make you feel inspired and motivated.
Don't work
so hard
Forcing your way into taking action could be a sign that you are working too hard but (79)focusing/concentrating on your goals could help you feel inspired and motivated to take real action.
Summary(80)Instead of forcing yourself to work hard every day,you need to trust yourself,build a favorable environment,spend time putting yourself in a state and surely you will get inspiration to guide you towards achieving your dreams.

7.【1】You go to bed on time but sometimes you lie there for a while and can't fall asleep.What should you do?
【2】Start by trying to take your mind off any racing thought.Picture a relaxing scene that includes sleep and build that scene in your mind.So,let's say your scene has you lying in a beach hammock(吊床) under the stars.Imagine what the waves sound like.Are there other sounds?Is anyone else there with you?Focus completely on this scene for a while.
【3】If that doesn't work and you're still wide awake,try getting up for a short time.Get out of bed and do something relaxing that might make you feel sleepy-like reading or playing a repetitive game like Sudoku.Keep the lights low and go back to bed after 30minutes or sooner if you start  _______.
【4】Avoid technology,like phones,computers,or TV.Brightly lit screens can mislead (誤導(dǎo)) your brain into thinking it's time to wake up.And anything that stimulates(刺激) your brain-from a text conversation to a video game-also can make you stay awake.
【5】Getting up for a short while can help if you have trouble falling asleep sometimes or if you sometimes wake up and can't go back to sleep.But you don't want to have to do it every night.If you have trouble falling asleep,it's best to train your body to relax each night.Doctors call this"good sleep hygiene (衛(wèi)生)."Good sleep hygiene includes activities that signal the body it's time to sleep,like going to bed at the same time each night,shutting down technology,and keeping your room dark.It also includes avoiding caffeine(咖啡因) for several hours before bedtime.It can help to treat sleep like any other goal:build a plan that helps you focus on it and get the results you want!

76.What does the text mainly tell us?( no more than 10words)
what should we do if we cannot sleep?
77.What's the first step you can take when you can't sleep?(no more than 10words)
Take my mind off any racing thought.

14.[1]I'd like to tell you about Max,a guy who had an idea about his job as a social worker.Max took over a section of Juvie Hall,for boys aged 14-17,who had social problems,I once worked as a secretary for some time there before Max did,Those boys were rough and tough and mean and there was no order at all-they did everything at sill,A year later,I heard that Max had taken over; I pitied him for having such a demanding job.
[2]The following Christmas,Max was on local TV offering food baskets freely,He said they didn't have much and would be glad if people would com and      ,The next day,the boys were on TV,Max had the boys giving away the food,One of the boys,looking kind of surprised,said,"Nobody ever thanked me before"Max said he wanted to give them what they had never had-a taste of why they might want to be good guys.
[3]The Christmas Baskets became a tradition:the press covered it every year and the boys began to have a good reputation,Today,under guidance from Max and an organization he founded,they are welcomed contributors to the community,Donations are plentiful and they have lots and lots of food baskets to give away.
[4]It's been decades now since Max started this tradition,He's still inventing new ways to help others,He sees the same hardships that we all do-but he figures out ways for everybody to help everybody else,He brought imagination and creativity to his job for the betterment of the lives of others,is that the key to job satisfaction?If he can do it-so can we,maybe.

71、Why did the writer feel sorry for Marx at first?(no more than 10words)
Because he knew the boys were difficult to deal with.
72、Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2with proper words(no more than 3words)

73、What has happened to the boys there with the help of Max?(no more than 10words)
They have become welcomed contributions to the community.
74、What does the underlined word in Para 3mean?(no more than 5words)
offering food baskets freely
75、What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph?(no more than 10words)
