Dreams Dreams do not happen when you're asleep. They happen when you're awake. Whatever your goals are, always remember you can make it true. Whether it be love, money, a childhood dream, and ultimately happiness, the most important idea is that you must never lose sight of your dream. Create reminders. Think about your original motivation often. Besides obvious factors that will come along when your dream is realized, think about other reasons. Who are you doing this dream for? Remind yourself often of your plan. Physical symbols always help—posting up pictures of the end result, buying items that symbolize your goals. Express your dream frequently. Whisper your dream through moonlight. Shout it on a busy highway. Write it on a balloon and set it free. Write it on paper boats and float them in the ocean. Write it as a message on a bottle and float that into the ocean. Explore and try different ways of different cultures of making ishes come true, small or big: paper cranes, and shooting stars. Tell your pet if you have one. Tell it to all the people you care about in your life. Create deadlines and punishments. For every step along the way, think of a realistic deadline. If too small, eventually you will be crashed with all the work you need and possibly never do it. If too large, you will probably forget about it. Punishments are necessary. They can be keeping yourself away from your favorite activities. Get a friend or family member to enforce this punishment. Keep your life. Do not forget about friends, family, work, and especially yourself! Keep contact with friends and family: over the internet, visit them, write to them. Try not start skipping work to work on your dream. Keep your brain, body, and soul in good shape at all times. Sleep often, read often, and enjoy life. Brainstorm ideas for your dream. Mind mapping (essentially creative concept mapping) is the ideal way to brainstorm. Any creative outlet will do just fine to find some creative ideas for your dream, especially writing or drawing. Any sort of art, even singing, playing music, photography, wood-carving can work. Buy a journal or two. Find inspiration. Keeping your dream alive means having no time to enjoy life.()

1.There’s nothing like a beautiful summer dayblue skies, warm breezes, birds singing lie back and dream about your future. You have the world before you.Allow yourself to dream, and think big big as the sky. The world’s greatest achievers are some of the best dreamers. Walt Disney, Amelia Earhart, Henry Ford, Susan B. Anthony, Andrew Carnegie, and hundreds more, all had dreams.Then take the first step to make your dreams come true. Form. a goal and accomplish it. Create a new goal and accomplish it. Every time you set and achieve a goal, you’ll move one step closer toward building the future you want for yourself.When you achieve a target you’ve set for yourself, it helps build your self-confidence and teaches you self-discipline. Each goal you achieve will boost your confidence and help you set bigger goals for your future. Soon, you’ll find yourself moving on a path to success.Steps for reaching your dreams:It can be as easy as starting a savings account at your credit union. Give yourself a goal. First, what do you want to save for? It might be a new CD player, your first car, or college.Next, where will your savings come from? Will you use a portion of your allowance, or can you think of other ways to earn money?It’s okay to set small goals at first. In fact, that may be wise so you begin to understand the rewards and personal satisfaction that come from achieving your goals.You can keep your goals secret or share them with someone close to you who may help you stay on track.Another important step is to write your goal on paper. Post your written goal (or a photo of it) in your room where you can see it regularly. This will remind you of what you are working toward.Give yourself a pat on the back when you’ve achieved your goal and start thinking about your next personal challenge.Before you know it, you’ll be living your dreams.(1)What is the first step for reaching your dreams?A、To start a savings account.B、To give yourself a goal.C、To save money for something you want.D、All of the above.(2)To make dreams come true, how many steps are mentioned in the passage?A、Three.B、Four.C、Six.D、Seven.(3)Andrew Carnegie and Henry Ford are mentioned to show ___________.A、they all had dreamsB、they are greatest achievers in the worldC、we should dream and think bigD、we are achievers if we are dreamers(4)According to the passage, you praise and encourage yourself when you _________.A、have formed a goalB、have accomplished a goalC、build your self-confidenceD、are planning a personal goal(5)You’ll be living your dreams〃 means you’ll __________.A、live in your dreamsB、be dreamersC、reach your dreamsD、believe your dreams

4.Maybe it is true that we don't know what we have got until we lose it, but it is also true that we don' t know what we have been missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you back. Don’t expect love in return; but be content that love has grown in your own heart.It takes an hour to like someone, a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Don’t rely on one's appearance; it can deceive. Don’t rely on wealth; even that fades away. Rely on someone who makes you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them. Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts others, too. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness waits for those who cry, those who have been hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You can't go on well in life until you let your past failures and heartaches go off. When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.(1)You should rely on someone who makes you smile_______________.A、because a smile can make your dark time easier.B、because a smile is bright.C、because you have nothing.D、because you can believe someone(2)What does the word “assurance” mean in the first paragraph?A、returnB、promiseC、maintainD、storage(3)In the third paragraph, “Always put yourself in other's shoes” means_______________.A、you should try other's shoes before you buy it.B、you should make yourself small enough.C、you should consider from another person's aspect.D、None of the above.(4) If you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying when you die, you areA、SatisfiedB、UpsetC、SadD、Indifferent(冷漠的)(5)What has been mentioned in the passage?A、to tell us not to demand too muchB、to warn us not to believe in appearanceC、to consider other people and learn to forgiveD、all of the above

  • 第2题:

    If you don’t have much experience of making phone calls in English, making a business call can be a worrying experience. Most business people, unless they feel very confident, prepare for an important phone call in a foreign language by making notes in advance. And during the call they make notes while they’re talking to help them to remember what was said. Although it’s quick and convenient to phone someone to give them information or to ask questions, the disadvantage is that there is nothing in writing to help you to remember what was said. It’s essential to make notes and often when an agreement is reached on the phone, one of the speakers will send a fax or e-mail to confirm the main points that were made. Because it’s so easy to be misunderstood when talking on the phone, it’s a good idea to repeat any important information (especially numbers and names) back to the other person to make sure you’ve got it right. Always make sure you know the name of the person you’re talking to. If necessary, ask them to spell it out to you, so that you can make sure you’ve got it right----and try to use their name during the call. And make sure that they know your name too.

    Common Questions about Dreams
    Does everyone dream ?
    Yes. Research shows that we all dream. We have our most vivid dreams during a type of sleep called Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep. During REM sleep, the brain is very active. The eyes move quickly back and forth under the lids, and the large muscles of the body are relaxed. REM sleep occurs every 90-100 minutes, three to four times a night, and it lasts longer as the night goes on. ___1___ We dream at other times during the night, too, but those dreams are less vivid.
    Do people remember their dreams ?
    A few people remember their dreams. However, most people forget nearly everything that happened during the night — dreams, thoughts, and the short periods of time when they were awake. ___2___ It seems that the memory of the dream is not totally lost, but for some reason it is very hard to bring it back. If you want to remember your dream,the best thing to do is to write it down as soon as you wake up.
    Are dreams in color ?
    Most dreams are in color. However, people may not be aware of it for two reasons : They don’t usually remember the details of their dreams, or they don’t notice the color because it is such a natural part of our lives. ___3___
    Do dreams have meaning ?
    Scientists continue to debate this issue. ___4___ Some people use dreams to help them learn more about their feelings, thoughts, behavior, motives, and values. Others find that dreams can help them solve problems. It’s also true that artists, writers, and scientists often get creative ideas from dreams.
    How can I learn to understand my dreams ?
    The most important thing to remember is that your dreams are personal. The people, actions, and situations in your dreams reflect your experience, your thoughts, and your feelings. Some dream experts believe that there are certain types of dreams that many people have,even if they come from different cultures or time periods. Usually, however, the same dream will have different meanings for different people. For example, an elephant in a dream may mean one thing to a zookeeper and something very different to a child whose favorite toy is a stuffed elephant. ___5___ Then look for links between your dreams and what is happening in your daily life. If you think hard and you are patient, perhaps the meaning of your dreams will become clearer to you.
    词汇:
    vivid /'vivid/ adj. 清晰的,生动的,逼真的
    lid /lid/ n. 眼睑(=eyelid)
    motive /m utiv/ n. 动机
    stuffed /st ft/ adj. 填充的,塞满了的
    注释:
    1. back and forth:来回地,反复地。
    2. bring it back:回忆起它来。bring back:使回忆起来,带回来、拿回来,使恢复。
    3. Scientists continue to debate this issue. 科学家们不断地讨论这个问题。“debate”作动词“争 论,辩论,讨论”讲,既可以是不及物动词也可以是及物动词,作不及物动词时常与 “about/ on/upon” 搭配。
    练习:
    A However, people who spend time thinking about their dreams believe that they are meaningful and useful.
    B The final REM period may last as long as 45 minutes.
    C People who are very aware of color when they are awake probably notice color more often in their dreams.
    D Our most powerful dreams don’t happen during deep sleep.
    E To learn to understand your dreams, think about what each part of the dream means to you or reminds you of.
    F Sometimes, though, people suddenly remember a dream later in the day or on another day.


    答案:
    解析:
    1. B 文中第一部分主要介绍快速眼动睡眠期,而且前一句正好提到每晚快速眼动睡眠期的间隔时间、出现频率及其持续时间的情况。
    2. F 题目所在的前一句提到大多数人会忘记晚上所发生的几乎所有事情,而后一句中又提到人们对梦的记忆好像没有完全丢失,由此可以推断出中间这一句应该说的是人有时会记起自己的梦。
    3. C 文中第三部分提到梦是彩色的,前面主要讲的是人们可能意识不到这个问题以及意识不到的原因,由此可以推断后面应该会提到那些可以意识到这个问题的人。因此,答案为C。
    4. A 文中第四部分讲的是梦的意义,纵观六个选项与部分主题相关的只有选项A,而且后面主要提到人们会利用梦做些什么,这也就意味着人们会思考他们的梦而且相信梦是有意义的。
    5. E 由第五部分的标题就可以锁定选项E,而且后一句讲的是要寻找梦与现实的联系,正好与选项E的意思相吻合。

    关于梦的常见问题
    每个人都会做梦吗
    是的。研究表明我们都会做梦。在一种叫作快速眼动(REM)的睡眠期里,我们会有最清晰生动的梦。在这种睡眠期里,大脑非常活跃,眼睛在眼睑下面来来回回地快速移动,而且身体的大肌肉会得到放松。快速眼动睡眠期每隔90~100分钟会出现一次,一晚会出现3~4次,而且随着入夜渐深,每次持续的时间也会变长。最后一次快速眼动睡眠期可能会持续长达45分钟。我们在夜晚的其他时间段也会做梦,但是那些梦没有快速眼动睡眠期里的梦清晰生动。
    人们会记得他们的梦吗
    一些人会记得他们的梦。然而,大多数人会忘记晚上所发生的几乎所有的事——梦、思想以及他们醒着时的短暂时光。但是,有时人们会在当天晚些时候或改天突然想起他们的梦。他们对梦的记忆好像并没有完全消失,但出于某种原因却很难回忆起来。如果你想记住自己的梦,最好的办法是一醒来就把它写下来。
    梦是彩色的吗
    大多数梦是彩色的。然而,人们可能不会意识到这一点。这是基于两方面的原因:人们通常不会记住梦的细节,或者因为颜色是我们生活中的自然组成部分,所以不会注意到。那些在醒着的时候意识到颜色的人可能会更经常注意到梦的颜色。
    梦有意义吗
    科学家们不停地讨论这个问题。然而,那些花时间思考他们梦的人相信梦是有意义的、有用的。有些人借助梦更多地了解自己的情感、思想、行为、动机和价值观。其他人发现梦可以帮助自己解决问题。艺术家、作家和科学家也确实经常从梦中获得创作的灵感。
    我如何学会理解自己的梦
    要记得最重要的一点就是梦是个人的。梦里的人、行为以及情景都能反映你的经历、思想以及情感。有些梦境专家认为某些类型的梦是很多人都有的,即使他们来自不同的文化或时期。然而,通常对于不同的人,同一个梦会有不同的意义。比如,做梦梦到大象对于一个动物园管理员来说意味着一回事,而对于一个最喜欢大象毛绒玩具的小孩来说就意味着截然不同的事。为了学会理解自己的梦,首先要思考一下梦的每一部分对你意味着什么或者让你想起了什么。然后寻找梦与日常生活中所发生事情的联系。如果你认真思考而且有耐心,或许你会更清晰地理解梦的意义。

  • 第5题:

    Above all know your audience and match what you say to their needs.Creating your presentation with your audience in mind will assure that your audience will follow you.If your presentation doesn't appeal to your audience-no matter how well you have developed your presentation--your presentation will fall on deaf ears.This leads us to the next rule:Know your material thoroughly.Your material needs to be second nature to you.Practice and rehearse your presentation with friends,in front of a mirror,and with colleagues.If you are speaking in a second language,make sure that you record yourself and listen to a number of times before going to practice with a native speaker(if possible).
    Remember that you are an actor when presenting.Make sure that not only your physical appearance is appropriate to the occasion,but also the tone you use is well chosen.If your topic is serious,be solemn.However,it's always a good idea to begin your presentation with an ice-breaker.Don't worry about making friends,rather lead the audience through your materials in a calm and relaxed manner.Speak slowly and clearly,and remember to address everyone in the audience-even the person the farthest away from you.
    To achieve the above goals follow these tips when giving your presentation:
    ●Speak with conviction.Believe what you are saying and you will persuade your audience.
    ●Do not read from notes.Referring to notes is fine,but do so only briefly.
    ●Maintain eye contact with your audience.Making direct eye contact with individuals will help them feel as if they are participating in your presentation.
    ●Bring handouts.Don't just use a PowerPoint presentation.Provide audience members with handouts of the most important materials so they can keep your most
    important takeaways in mind.
    ●Know when to stop.This cannot be underestimated.You need to make your case,but continuing for too long will only ensure that the audience forgets what you have said.

    What is the most important thing to remember when making a presentation?

    A.Match your presentation to the needs of your audienc
    B.Make sure to wear your best clothe
    C.Bring detailed handout
    D.Know your material thoroughl

    答案:A
    解析:

    Dreams Dreams do not happen when you're asleep. They happen when you're awake. Whatever your goals are, always remember you can make it true. Whether it be love, money, a childhood dream, and ultimately happiness, the most important idea is that you must never lose sight of your dream. Create reminders. Think about your original motivation often. Besides obvious factors that will come along when your dream is realized, think about other reasons. Who are you doing this dream for? Remind yourself often of your plan. Physical symbols always help—posting up pictures of the end result, buying items that symbolize your goals. Express your dream frequently. Whisper your dream through moonlight. Shout it on a busy highway. Write it on a balloon and set it free. Write it on paper boats and float them in the ocean. Write it as a message on a bottle and float that into the ocean. Explore and try different ways of different cultures of making ishes come true, small or big: paper cranes, and shooting stars. Tell your pet if you have one. Tell it to all the people you care about in your life. Create deadlines and punishments. For every step along the way, think of a realistic deadline. If too small, eventually you will be crashed with all the work you need and possibly never do it. If too large, you will probably forget about it. Punishments are necessary. They can be keeping yourself away from your favorite activities. Get a friend or family member to enforce this punishment. Keep your life. Do not forget about friends, family, work, and especially yourself! Keep contact with friends and family: over the internet, visit them, write to them. Try not start skipping work to work on your dream. Keep your brain, body, and soul in good shape at all times. Sleep often, read often, and enjoy life. Brainstorm ideas for your dream. Mind mapping (essentially creative concept mapping) is the ideal way to brainstorm. Any creative outlet will do just fine to find some creative ideas for your dream, especially writing or drawing. Any sort of art, even singing, playing music, photography, wood-carving can work. Buy a journal or two. Find inspiration. A journal can arouse your inspiration.()

  • 第14题:

    Many people think that when they become rich and successful, happiness will naturally follow. Let me tell you that nothing is further from the truth. The world is full of very rich people who are as miserable as if they were living in hell. We have read stories about movie stars who committed suicide or died from drugs. Quite clearly, money is not the only answer to all problems. Wealth obtained through dishonest means does not bring happiness. Lottery winnings do not bring happiness. Gambling winnings do not bring happiness. To my mind, the secret to happiness lies in your successful work, in your contribution towards others’ happiness and in your wealth you have earned through your own honest effort. If you obtain wealth through luck or dishonest means, you will know that it is ill-earned money. If you get your money by taking advantage of others or by hurting others, you will not be happy with it. You will think you are a base person. Long-term happiness is based on honesty, productive work, contribution, and self-esteem. Happiness is not an end; it is a process. It is a continuous process of honest, productive work which makes a real contribution to others and makes you feel you are a useful, worthy person. As Dr. Wayne wrote, “There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.” There is no use saying “Someday when I achieve these goals, when I get a car, build a house and own my own business, then I will be really happy.” Life just does not work that way. If you wait for certain things to happen and depend on external circumstances of life to make you happy, you will always feel unfulfilled. There will always be something missing.

    1.What does “nothing is further from the truth” mean?

    A、 Something. is completely untrue.

    B、 Something is completely true.

    C、 We can find out the truth.

    D、 We cannot find out the truth.

    2.What are the secrets to happiness in the author’s mind?

    A、 successful work

    B、 contribution to other’happiness

    C、 honest effort

    D、 all of the above.

    3.Which of the following is not dishonest means for wealth?

    A、 lottery winning

    B、 gambling winnings

    C、 hard work

    D、 taking advantage of others

    4.What does the sentence “There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.” mean according to the passage?

    A、 Happiness is not an end; it is a process.

    B、 People do not know how to get happiness.

    C、 It is hard to get happiness.

    D、 Happiness is what you feel.

    5.What is the meaning of the word “unfulfilled”?

    A、 uncontrolable

    B、 impolite

    C、 dissatisfied

    D、 abnormal

  • 第16题:

    Above all know your audience and match what you say to their needs.Creating your presentation with your audience in mind will assure that your audience will follow you.If your presentation doesn't appeal to your audience-no matter how well you have developed your presentation--your presentation will fall on deaf ears.This leads us to the next rule:Know your material thoroughly.Your material needs to be second nature to you.Practice and rehearse your presentation with friends,in front of a mirror,and with colleagues.If you are speaking in a second language,make sure that you record yourself and listen to a number of times before going to practice with a native speaker(if possible).
    Remember that you are an actor when presenting.Make sure that not only your physical appearance is appropriate to the occasion,but also the tone you use is well chosen.If your topic is serious,be solemn.However,it's always a good idea to begin your presentation with an ice-breaker.Don't worry about making friends,rather lead the audience through your materials in a calm and relaxed manner.Speak slowly and clearly,and remember to address everyone in the audience-even the person the farthest away from you.
    To achieve the above goals follow these tips when giving your presentation:
    ●Speak with conviction.Believe what you are saying and you will persuade your audience.
    ●Do not read from notes.Referring to notes is fine,but do so only briefly.
    ●Maintain eye contact with your audience.Making direct eye contact with individuals will help them feel as if they are participating in your presentation.
    ●Bring handouts.Don't just use a PowerPoint presentation.Provide audience members with handouts of the most important materials so they can keep your most
    important takeaways in mind.
    ●Know when to stop.This cannot be underestimated.You need to make your case,but continuing for too long will only ensure that the audience forgets what you have said.

    Why should you know when to stop?

    A.Because you need res
    B.Because audience may fall aslee
    C.Because you may be tired for talking too lon
    D.Because it can make audience remember what you sai

    答案:D

    Knowing Your Real Personality from Sleeping Positions
    Everyone has got two personalities—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real.You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control yourself,but when you're asleep,your sleeping position shows the real you.In a normal night,of course,you often change your sleeping positions.The important position that best shows your se-cret personality is the one that you go to sleep.
    If you go to sleep on your back,you're a very open person.You nbrmally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas.You don't like to make people unhappy,so you never ex-press your real feelings.You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.
    If you sleep on your stomach,you are a person who likes to keep secrets.You worry a lot and you're always easily becoming sad.You never want to change your ideas,but you are satisfied with your life the way it is.You usually live for today not for tomorrow.
    If you sleep on curled up,you are probably a very nervous person.You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt,so you are very defensive.You're shy and you don't usually like meeting people.You like to be on your own.
    If you sleep on your side,you have usually got a well-balanced personality.You know your strengths and weaknesses.You're usually careful.You have a confident personality.You sometimes feel worried,but you don't often get unhappy .You always say what you think,even if it makes people angry.

    When does the sleeping position best show your secret personality?

Do not forget about friends, family, work, and especially yourself! Keep contact with friends and family: over the internet, visit them, write to them. Try not start skipping work to work on your dream. Keep your brain, body, and soul in good shape at all times. Sleep often, read often, and enjoy life. Brainstorm ideas for your dream. Mind mapping (essentially creative concept mapping) is the ideal way to brainstorm. Any creative outlet will do just fine to find some creative ideas for your dream, especially writing or drawing. Any sort of art, even singing, playing music, photography, wood-carving can work. Buy a journal or two. Find inspiration. Keeping your dream alive means having no time to enjoy life.()

    True

    B

    False

    C

    Not Given


    正确答案: B
    解析: 题干译文:实现梦想意味着没有时间享受生活。作者在第六段最后提到keep your brain, body, and soul in good shape at all times. Sleep often, read often, and enjoy life ,即无论何时都让你的头脑、身体和灵魂保持在好的状态。常休息、常阅读、享受生活。因此题干与文意相反。
