The Amazon Rainforest: A Natural Treasure
Welcome to the Amazon rainforest. As the largest rainforest in the world, it plays a significant role in maintaining the fine balance of the Earth's ecosystem.
The Amazon rainforest crosses into eight countries. With an area of 5.5 million square kilometers, the Amazon rainforest is more than half the size of China. The Amazon River, from which the rainforest gets its name, is about 6,400 kilometers in length. On its journey from the mountains to the ocean, the river supports many different ecosystems. 1.
The forest's different levels support an unbelievable variety of wildlife. At the bottom, there is a system of roots beneath the ground. Above that is the mass of leaf litter on the dark forest floor.
2. Then there are the towering ancient hardwoods, and finally the tops of the tallest trees many metres above the ground. Each level of the forest forms its own little world, and is home to different kinds of living things.
More than 1,300 species of birds and over 400 species of mammals hide among the jungle's plant life. The jaguar(美洲豹) is one example. It has yellowish-brown coat with black spots. While a significant number of jaguars survive here, they are only one element of this forest's food chain. 3. These frogs, in turn, feed on insects which eat leaves and fruit. When a jaguar dies, a tiny army of microorganisms helps break down its body and return the nutrients to the earth.
The Amazon rainforest breathes life into the planet by absorbing carbon dioxide and producing over 20 percent of all the Earth's oxygen. 4. Moreover, the Amazon rainforest is a treasure house of species that can be used for food or medicine. Yet there is one major danger to these irreplaceable plants and animals: us.
5. As the impact of human activities such as agriculture and cattle fanning continues to grow and the list of species in danger of extinction becomes longer, we are left with a question: can we afford to damage the "lungs of the planet"
A.They feed on many species, including frogs.
B.Thus, it's often known as the "lungs of the planet".
C.Rivers tend to be the easiest way to enter the forest.
D.The next level is made up of shorter plants with large leaves.
E.They give this area the richest species of plants and animals on the Earth.
F.Currently the trees in the Amazon rainforest absorb around 500 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide each year.
G.Over the past 50 years, 17 percent of the rainforest has disappeared due to human activities.

How strong are you
That is a difficult question to answer, whether you are a man or a woman. But, really, I want to ask ... how do you define (定义) your strength How do you know your limits When pushed, we often discover that we are much stronger than we think.
21.
Strength is not always just about physical strength. Rather, it's about willpower, discipline and drive. 22. I know some people who are intelligent, but they get very little done in their jobs. And I know others who find work very difficult, but are able to move mountains by their hard work. They have inner strength.
Limiting yourself
What I have observed is that most people limit themselves. They limit their output according to how limited they imagine their abilities and strengths to be. Sometimes these limits are based on past experiences. Sometimes they are based on what they think their abilities are. 23.
Pushing it ...
Many people are working out, but nowhere near as much as they could.
24. Pushing yourself is what it takes to increase your limits. In the gym, bodybuilders discovered this long ago.
But, this is also true when it comes to inner strength.
Want to test your limits Push yourself. Test your limits to see if they are simply what you imagine them to be. Make sure your goals are slightly beyond what you think can be achieved.
You are stronger than you think
Most people underestimate (低估) their strength. As you go through your day, test your limits. Push yourself to find your true limits and define your strength. 25.
A. Physical ability
B. What is strength
C. The same applies to daily life.
D. It's about the ability to get things done.

It's about the ability to get things done. “它是关于完成事情的能力。”可以概括后文的内容,且该项中的主语it指代前文提到的strength,进一步对小标题提出的“力量是什么”的问题进行了解答。起到了承上启下的过渡作用。故选D。

The desire to be noticed by peers is a natural tendency. Your style—the way you dress up, the way you carry yourself, the trends you follow—plays a key role in helping you stand out from the others. 41. The following tips can help you.
⒈ Be yourself.
Why be a second-rate version of anybody else when you can be the first-rate version of yourself. Nothing will help you stand out of the crowd more than your own features because there can be only one you. Everyone has their own belief, their own way of thinking, their own experiences that shape their styles. However, self-doubt and fear of disapproval drive many to abandon their own ways and follow what everyone else is doing. 42.
⒉ Keep an open mind.
Open-mindedness helps you see things from a different perspective, understand others, find opportunities, and learn from others. 43. There are several styles that you should explore and determine which suits your own personality. Nobody knows what fashion you are enthusiastic about. But you should be clearly aware of your own true feelings about it.
⒊ Keep up with the recent trends.
Fashion is always changing. 44. As society changes, so does fashion. Changing trends reflect the changes in people's taste. Similarly, your senses of fashion changes as you gain more experiences in life. Keeping track of the latest fashion will help you redefine your style.
⒋ Wear your confidence
Your attitude towards dressing can make a significant difference on how you look. You can wear a very beautiful dress, but if you can't carry it with confidence, it will not look good on you. 45. Don't wear an uncomfortable dress just because everyone or your friend is wearing it. Remember, it's okay to have your own style as long as you are confident with it.
A. Also, it tells a lot about your personality.
B. What worked yesterday may not work today.
C. Copying others will make you just another face in a crowd.
D. Having an open mind can be very helpful in defining your style.
E. On the other hand, even an average dress looks great on people who wear it confidently.

The Amazon Rainforest: A Natural Treasure
Welcome to the Amazon rainforest. As the largest rainforest in the world, it plays a significant role in maintaining the fine balance of the Earth's ecosystem.
The Amazon rainforest crosses into eight countries. With an area of 5.5 million square kilometers, the Amazon rainforest is more than half the size of China. The Amazon River, from which the rainforest gets its name, is about 6,400 kilometers in length. On its journey from the mountains to the ocean, the river supports many different ecosystems. 1.
The forest's different levels support an unbelievable variety of wildlife. At the bottom, there is a system of roots beneath the ground. Above that is the mass of leaf litter on the dark forest floor.
2. Then there are the towering ancient hardwoods, and finally the tops of the tallest trees many metres above the ground. Each level of the forest forms its own little world, and is home to different kinds of living things.
More than 1,300 species of birds and over 400 species of mammals hide among the jungle's plant life. The jaguar(美洲豹) is one example. It has yellowish-brown coat with black spots. While a significant number of jaguars survive here, they are only one element of this forest's food chain. 3. These frogs, in turn, feed on insects which eat leaves and fruit. When a jaguar dies, a tiny army of microorganisms helps break down its body and return the nutrients to the earth.
The Amazon rainforest breathes life into the planet by absorbing carbon dioxide and producing over 20 percent of all the Earth's oxygen. 4. Moreover, the Amazon rainforest is a treasure house of species that can be used for food or medicine. Yet there is one major danger to these irreplaceable plants and animals: us.
5. As the impact of human activities such as agriculture and cattle fanning continues to grow and the list of species in danger of extinction becomes longer, we are left with a question: can we afford to damage the "lungs of the planet"
A.They feed on many species, including frogs.
B.Thus, it's often known as the "lungs of the planet".
C.Rivers tend to be the easiest way to enter the forest.
D.The next level is made up of shorter plants with large leaves.
E.They give this area the richest species of plants and animals on the Earth.
F.Currently the trees in the Amazon rainforest absorb around 500 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide each year.
G.Over the past 50 years, 17 percent of the rainforest has disappeared due to human activities.

How strong are you
That is a difficult question to answer, whether you are a man or a woman. But, really, I want to ask ... how do you define (定义) your strength How do you know your limits When pushed, we often discover that we are much stronger than we think.
21.
Strength is not always just about physical strength. Rather, it's about willpower, discipline and drive. 22. I know some people who are intelligent, but they get very little done in their jobs. And I know others who find work very difficult, but are able to move mountains by their hard work. They have inner strength.
Limiting yourself
What I have observed is that most people limit themselves. They limit their output according to how limited they imagine their abilities and strengths to be. Sometimes these limits are based on past experiences. Sometimes they are based on what they think their abilities are. 23.
Pushing it ...
Many people are working out, but nowhere near as much as they could.
24. Pushing yourself is what it takes to increase your limits. In the gym, bodybuilders discovered this long ago.

Want to test your limits Push yourself. Test your limits to see if they are simply what you imagine them to be. Make sure your goals are slightly beyond what you think can be achieved.
You are stronger than you think
Most people underestimate (低估) their strength. As you go through your day, test your limits. Push yourself to find your true limits and define your strength. 25.

When choosing your dream career, it is important that you first know yourself well. The best way to begin is through self-exploration which will allow you to uncover more about your personal interests, skills, personality, and values. 26.
Interests are important considerations when choosing a career. By focusing on your interests, you can determine which career options would provide you with the highest satisfaction and a sense of enjoyment. 27. Job satisfaction contributes to a positive attitude at work, which in turn will affect your chances of gaining success in your career.
The next thing you have to consider is the skills you own. 28. These skills can be either hard skills or soft skills. And you need to determine which of those skills are transferable (可转移的). Transferable skills are not specific to one job, so you can apply them to a variety of different jobs. Having the right skill set is the key that opens a whole new field of career possibilities for you. You may even be surprised at the number of career options that are a good fit with the skills you currently have.
29. You will need to assess your individual personality, motivational drive, needs and attitudes to find a career that has the best fit with your personality. For example, a salesperson generally needs to be naturally outgoing.
Another important factor to consider in your decision when choosing a dream career is your values. 30. And the scale of your values is based on your attitudes and beliefs about what is important in life.
A. Values are relevant to your beliefs.
B. What are the things you are good at
C. Interests are also important for your choice.
D. Choosing a dream career will have an influence on your skills.

How to Cram (仓促准备) for a Test without Going Crazy
Do you have a test coming up you should have been studying for weeks ago Don't worry. You're not alone, and all hope is not lost. 31.
You must start with the basics. No, we're not talking about the material you're learning; we're talking about the environment you're in. Do it in a space that isn't crowded or messy. 32. If you're worried about spending more time cleaning than studying, some of other favorite places to cram include coffee shops, bookstores, and parks.
We already stressed the importance of an environment, but we didn't talk about what you are using in that environment. If you have your phone with you, we suggest turning it on silent and putting it away. 33. Close any outside communication applications and remove distractions from your study site to completely focus on the task at hand.
34. When studying, you shouldn't push yourself past your limit. Our general rule of thumb is to give yourself a break at least once every hour. Each of your breaks should last for at least 10 minutes at a time to ensure you are refreshed and ready to get back into it.

The desire to be noticed by peers is a natural tendency. Your style—the way you dress up, the way you carry yourself, the trends you follow—plays a key role in helping you stand out from the others. 41. The following tips can help you.
⒈ Be yourself.
Why be a second-rate version of anybody else when you can be the first-rate version of yourself. Nothing will help you stand out of the crowd more than your own features because there can be only one you. Everyone has their own belief, their own way of thinking, their own experiences that shape their styles. However, self-doubt and fear of disapproval drive many to abandon their own ways and follow what everyone else is doing. 42.
⒉ Keep an open mind.
Open-mindedness helps you see things from a different perspective, understand others, find opportunities, and learn from others. 43. There are several styles that you should explore and determine which suits your own personality. Nobody knows what fashion you are enthusiastic about. But you should be clearly aware of your own true feelings about it.
⒊ Keep up with the recent trends.
Fashion is always changing. 44. As society changes, so does fashion. Changing trends reflect the changes in people's taste. Similarly, your senses of fashion changes as you gain more experiences in life. Keeping track of the latest fashion will help you redefine your style.
⒋ Wear your confidence
Your attitude towards dressing can make a significant difference on how you look. You can wear a very beautiful dress, but if you can't carry it with confidence, it will not look good on you. 45. Don't wear an uncomfortable dress just because everyone or your friend is wearing it. Remember, it's okay to have your own style as long as you are confident with it.
A. Also, it tells a lot about your personality.
B. What worked yesterday may not work today.
C. Copying others will make you just another face in a crowd.
D. Having an open mind can be very helpful in defining your style.
E. On the other hand, even an average dress looks great on people who wear it confidently.
F. It is not absolutely necessary to follow every new trend, and you can enjoy the ones you like.
G. Simply following the fashion trends or wearing expensive clothes will not help you get a distinct style.

Earthquakes can strike without warning. But many injuries and deaths from this kind of natural disaster can be prevented if people follow these safety tips.
If you're inside a building, stay there! One of the most dangerous things to do in an earthquake is to try to leave a building. 46. Drop to the ground. Get under an object (物体) that is not easily damaged. Hold on to it until the shaking stops. You can also get to a corner formed by two walls with your arms over your hand. If you're in bed when the quake hits, stay there and protect your head with a pillow.
47. Don't take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop as quickly as possible and stay away from overpasses, buildings, bridges or anything else that might fall or collapse beneath you. 48.
If you are trapped in ruins, cover your mouth with a handkerchief or a piece of clothing. Use your cellphone to call for help if possible. Don't shout. 49. Tap (敲) on a pipe or the wall so rescuers can find you.
Be prepared for aftershocks. 50. However, sometimes they even happen months later. Therefore, if you are not in a safe position (位置) after the first shock, you should move quickly but carefully to a safer place.
A. Don't move about or kick up dust.
B. If you're outside, go to an open space.
C. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dust.
D. Don't park your car under a tree or any tall object.
E. Take a good hold of your cellphone in the building.
