As John Lennon once said,life is happens to you while you are busy making other plans. A. which B. that C. what D. where答案解析

D

To a large degree, the measure of our peace of mind is determined by how much we are able to live in the present moment. Regardless of what happened yesterday or last year, and what may or may not happen tomorrow, the present moment is where you are — always!

We allow past problems and future concerns to control our present moments, so much that we end up anxious, frustrated, depressed, and hopeless.We often convince ourselves future will be better than today.John Lennon once said, "Life is what's happening while we're busy making other plans."When we're busy making other plans",our children are busy growing up, the people we love are moving away and dying,our bodies are getting out of shape,and our dreams are slipping away.In short,we miss out on life.

Many people live as if life were a dress rehearsal for some later date. It isn't. In fact, no one has a guarantee that he or she will be here tomorrow. Now is the only time we have, and the only time that we have any control over. When our attention is in the present moment, we push fear from our minds. Fear is the concern over events that might happen in the future—we won't have enough money, our children will get into trouble, we will get old and die, whatever.

To struggle against fear, the best strategy is to learn to bring your attention back to the present. Mark Twain said, "I have been through some terrible things in my life, some of which actually happened." I don't think I can say it any better. Practice keeping your attention on the here and now and your efforts will pay off.

73. The purpose of this passage is to tell readers ______.

       A. people who are busy making plans are living actively

       B. how to help others overcome fear

       C. we ought to learn to live in the present moment

       D. someone who only enjoys the present time usually wastes his time blindly

74. It implies from the passage that ______.

       A. many people know how to fight against fear

       B. it isn't necessary to fear for future

       C. you can gain more happiness by putting off your pleasure

       D. some people make plans for their children to improve their lives

75. "Many people live as if life were a dress rehearsal" suggests that ______.

       A. they always wish to be an actor or an actress

       B. they believe that their present life is well prepared for their future

       C. they are always busy making plans for future

       D. They all have a guarantee that they will be alive tomorrow

76. Why are some people depressed and anxious day and night?

       A. Because they fear they cannot pass their tests.

       B. Because past problems and future concerns control their present moment.

       C. Because the people they love want to leave them alone.

       D. Because they make some mistakes in the past.

Travel Unaccompanied

Now many young people are traveling around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone.

Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. “It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.

In foreign countries, with no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen. It is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone.It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.

Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year.He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He said he wished he had traveled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the 30-year-old.

Richardson describes traveling alone like “a shot in the arm”, which “makes you a more confident person that was ready to deal with anything”. He said: “The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”

The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said: “Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”

1.Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?

A. Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.

B. It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.

C. It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.

D. Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.

2.Traveling alone is challenging because         .

A. it will finally build your character

B. you have to make things on your own

C. you depend on yourself whatever happens

D. it is hard for you to prove yourself to others

3.What can we infer about Chris Richardson?

A. He started traveling at an early age.          B. He was once shot in the arm.

C. His website inspires others a lot.      D. He used to work as a salesman.

John Steinbeck once said, “All Americans believe they are born fishermen. For a man to admit to a distaste in fishing would be like denouncing (公開指責(zé)) mother – love or hating moonlight.”
I can’t say that I’m the biggest John Steinbeck fan. Actually, the only thing I can ever remember reading by him was “The pearl” when I was in middle school, but I couldn’t agree more with the man when it comes to fishing. Whether I am on a boat in the middle of the Lay Lake, fishing off the shores of the Florida Keys for tarpon or catching rainbow trout in the Shoshone River of Wyoming, fishing is my life.
According to the American Sports Fishing Association, the fishing industry brings in more than $ 116 billion per year from fishermen across the country.
Though a beautiful picture to imagine, fishing is much more than that. Fishing is a way of life for many people and a way to escape everyday stress. Being a fisherman makes me a member of a wonderful group of people extending to all walks of life. Even President Obama can be found fishing on his farm in Texas with his good friend Roland Martin when the job gets too stressful.

John Steinbeck once said, “All Americans believe they are born fishermen. For a man to admit to a distaste in fishing would be like denouncing (公開指責(zé)) mother – love or hating moonlight.”

I can’t say that I’m the biggest John Steinbeck fan. Actually, the only thing I can ever remember reading by him was “The pearl” when I was in middle school, but I couldn’t agree more with the man when it comes to fishing. Whether I am on a boat in the middle of the Lay Lake, fishing off the shores of the Florida Keys for tarpon or catching rainbow trout in the Shoshone River of Wyoming, fishing is my life.

According to the American Sports Fishing Association, the fishing industry brings in more than $ 116 billion per year from fishermen across the country.

Though a beautiful picture to imagine, fishing is much more than that. Fishing is a way of life for many people and a way to escape everyday stress. Being a fisherman makes me a member of a wonderful group of people extending to all walks of life. Even President Obama can be found fishing on his farm in Texas with his good friend Roland Martin when the job gets too stressful.

I can remember fishing with my grandfather when I was 5 years old on his boat at Lake Mitchell. Although I didn’t understand what I was doing, I did know that my grandfather was happy and that made me happy. Since then I’ve spent the past 16 years on the rivers and lakes of Alabama.

Now many young people are traveling around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone.

Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. “It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.

In foreign countries, with no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, it is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.

Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He says he wished he had traveled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the 30-year-old man.

Richardson describes traveling alone like “a shot in the arm”, which “makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything”. He said, “The feeling of having conquered(戰(zhàn)勝)something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”

The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said, “Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”

60.Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?
   A. Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.

   B. It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.

   C. It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.

   D. Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.

61. Traveling alone is challenging because ________.

   A. you have to make things on your own

   B. it is hard for you to prove yourself to others

   C. you can only depend on yourself whatever happens

   D. it will finally build your character

62. What can we infer about Chris Richardson?

   A. He started traveling alone at an early age.     B. He was once shot in the arm.

   C. He used to work as a salesman.             D. His website inspires others a lot.

63. What is the best title for the passage?

   A. Travel Abroad                  B. Travel Unaccompanied

   C. Travel Light                   D. Travel Wide and Far

閱讀理解。

     John Steinbeck once said,"All Americans believe they are born fishermen.For a man to
 admit to a distaste in fishing would be like denouncing(公開譴責(zé))mother-love or hating
 moonlight."
     I can't say that I'm the biggest John Steinbeck fan.Actually,the only thing I can remember 
reading by him was "The Pearl" when I was in middle school,but I couldn't agree more with 
the man when it comes to fishing.Whether I am on a boat in the middle of Lay Lake,fishing 
off the shores of the Florida Keys for tarpon(大海鰱)or catching rainbow trout(虹鱒魚)in
 the Shoshone River of Wyoming,fishing is my life.
     According to the American Sportsfishing Asso ciation,the fishing industry brings in more
 than $116 billion per year from fishermen across the country.
      Though a beautiful picture to imagine,fishing is much more than that.Fi shing is a way 
of life for many people and a way to escape everyday stress.Being a fisherman makes me
 a member of a wonderful group of people extending to all walks of life.Even President 
Bush can be found fishing on his farm in Texas with his good friend Roland Martin when 
the job gets too stressful.
      I can remember fishing with my grandfather when I was 5 years old on his boat at Lake
 Mitchell.Although I didn't understand what I was doing,I did know that my grandfather was
 happy and that made me happy.Since then I have spent the past 16 years on the rivers and
 lakes of Alabama.
     After years of practice,before and after work,I slowly developed an understanding of 
fishing.My boss,Ric Horst,took me back to the Shoshone,and I managed to bring in a 
19-inch cutthroat trout.Fishing with Ric was a life-changing experience for me.He not only 
showed me how to fish correctly,but also told me how fishing could be a way to escape 
your problems.
      Since then,prime-time(黃金時(shí)間)season seems to take forever to arrive.
      Now,with the ending of February and beginning of March in sight,the excitement of 
heading out to Lake Tuscaloosa or Lake Lurleen before classes and catching something 
has finally returned. 
