Investing in Yourself
Figuring out how to invest your money can be a difficult task.This is something that you will want to learn.
1 Things that will improve your knowledge,skills or health are all great investments.However,before you start,you need to be clear about what you will gain out of doing all of these things.
You may think investing in yourself means investing in your education. 2 There are some other things you can do as well as buying a gym membership or learning a new skill.
So what are some specific things you can do 3 Reading books can really expand your mind and allow you to learn different skills and gain knowledge.I’m talking about the books where you will actually learn a new skill,not fiction books.
You can also take courses and attend seminars.These programs are taught by people with a high level of knowledge or skill. 4 Only in this way can you avoid being fooled by some sales presentation.
Moreover,investing in yourself is a safe way to keep your money.Although a savings account is seen as the most secure investment,that isn’t 100% safe.Even if you never experience your bank closing down,the return is little when inflation(通货膨胀) is taken into consideration. 5 But over time,they will show up in terms of your happiness level as well as your level of success.
A.The benefits will stay with you.
B.This is just one way.
C.If you aren’t a reader,you should start with that.
D.The more you do this,the more valuable you will be.
E.The best way to invest your money is to invest it in yourself.
F.Of course,you need to do some research before investing.
G.When you invest in yourself,you may not see gains right away.

Ⅵ.阅读理解
Last month,I began my own two-week-long digital detox.I got the inspiration from the tech writer Paul Miller,who got away from the Internet for a whole year.It was not worth mentioning as against the time Miller spent offline,but it was the longest I had gone through without almost any Internet in 13 years.
Why did I do it For a while I felt the urge to try fully disconnecting to free myself from the endless work.I wanted to take a break from it all for a couple of weeks at least to see what would happen.After all,throughout the last decade,I’ve been online 24/7,overreacting to my email inbox and social feed(传送)—living in a world where the line between the digital world and the real world gets a bit unclear at times.
I haven’t of course forgotten that I’m CEO of a social media company.My work is built around the premise(前提) that being connected makes our lives richer,more rewarding and more efficient.Still,I’d forgotten one key lesson along the way:moderation.As more and more of my life was spent scanning social feed and checking out my inbox,I realized that I needed to step back and get a whole new perspective.
So on my winter vacation to Mexico,I took a break from being active on the Internet for the entire trip.For the whole 14 days,I ate a lot of delicious fish tacos,surfed and fixed up my cottage on the beach.I didn’t write or send any emails.I didn’t scan any Top 10 lists of feed.The one I did give myself was checking my email inbox occasionally—just to make sure an emergency wasn’t unfolding while I was away.
What I learned from my short experiment was actually not too unlike what Miller learned.I didn’t end up discovering that technology is evil.In fact,I found myself reflecting on how technology over the last few years has let me experience some of the most rewarding and eventful moments of my life.
1.Why did the author begin digital detox for two weeks
A.Because Miller recommended him to do so.
B.Because he was tired of his empty life.
C.Because he wanted to live a digital life.
D.Because he intended to experience an Internet-free life.
2.Which can replace the underlined word “moderation” in paragraph 3
A.To a large degree.
B.In an honest way.
C.In an appropriate way.
D.To a very small degree.
3.Why did the author still check out his email
A.To deal with emergencies.
B.For the sake of his health.
C.To find some delicious food to eat.
D.To watch Top 10 lists closely.
4.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.The author holds an objective attitude towards technology.
B.The author finds technology is harmful.
C.The author will advise digital detox completely.
D.The author will no longer use the Internet.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When Bryan Anderson noticed an old lady,caught on the side of the road,he knew she needed help.So he pulled up in front of her Mercedes and got out with his motor still running.
Even with a big smile on his face,she was worried.He didn’t look safe;he looked poor and hungry.After reading her mind,he introduced himself as Bryan Anderson and began to help her.
Learning that she had a flat tire,without a second thought,Bryan set out to work and took hours to get it right,dirty and tired.She couldn’t thank him enough for coming to her aid.
With everything done,the lady asked how much she owed him.Any amount would have been all right with her.She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened.Bryan never thought about being paid.This was helping someone in need.He had lived his whole life that way,and it never occurred to him to act any other way.
Bryan told her that if she really wanted to pay him back,the next time she saw someone who needed help,she could give that person help the way he gave her,and he added,“And think of me to let the chain of love pass on.”
Hearing that she owed him nothing,with tears rolling down her cheeks,the old lady drove off with a deep “Thank you”.
A few miles down the road,the lady saw a small cafe.She went in to grab a bite to eat,and take the chill off before she made the last leg of her trip home.In the dirty-looking restaurant,the whole scene was unfamiliar to her;a waitress came over and brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair.She had a sweet smile,one that even being on her feet for the whole day couldn’t erase.The lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant,but she never let the strain and aches change her attitude.Then she remembered Bryan.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
After the lady finished her meal,she paid with a $100 bill.
That night when she got home from work,she was thinking about the money and what the lady had written.

Ⅷ.After the lady finished her meal,she paid with a $100 bill.The waitress quickly went to get change for her $100 bill,but the old lady had driven off.She was gone by the time the waitress came back.The waitress wondered where the lady could be.Then she noticed something written on a napkin.There were tears in her eyes when she read what the lady wrote:You don’t owe me anything.I have been there too.Somebody once helped me out the way I’m helping you.If you really want to pay me back,here is what you do:do not let this chain of love end with you.Under the napkin were four more $100 bills.
That night when she got home from work,she was thinking about the money and what the lady had written.She was wondering how the lady knew how much she and her husband were in need.With the baby to be born next month,it was going to be hard.She knew how worried her husband Bryan Anderson was,but now everything is going to be all right.Unit 2分层跟踪检测(一)Starting out & Understanding ideas

Teenagers who spend more than six hours online on school days are more likely to be lonely and skip school,according to an international study.
The study examined the home Internet use,well-being(幸福) and behaviour of 296,000 15-year-olds in 41 countries.More than one in four spent more than four hours per day online outside of school.The study found lower levels of well-being among students who spent more than six hours per day online.They were twice as likely as teenagers spending one and two hours per day online to report that they felt lonely at school.These extreme Internet users were also especially at risk of “behaving in problematic ways at school,such as arriving late or skipping class”.
The report said,“Lower levels of engagement(密切关系) with school may be connected to less sense of belonging at school.It is also possible that skipping class and arriving late for school are the consequence of lack of sleep among extreme Internet users.”It adds,“Parents,schools and health professionals can work together to watch and plan children’s use of new media.”
The study also found that countries that invest(投资) heavily in Information and Communication Technology(ICT) in schools have seen no considerable difference in 15-year-olds’ achievement in reading,maths or science tests.The study results suggest limited use of computers at school may be better than not using them at all.However,students who use computers very frequently at school do a lot worse in most learning outcomes.The report says,“In the end,technology can strengthen great teaching,but great technology cannot replace poor teaching.”
1.The international study showed that .
A.half of the students spent six hours online every day
B.extreme Internet users had lower levels of well-being
C.teenagers spent much time online when they felt lonely
D.most of the students were late for school after extreme Internet use
2.What can we learn from the study results
A.Schools should invest more in ICT.
B.Proper use of computers is helpful at school.
C.Technology sometimes leads to poor teaching.
D.Computer users perform well in maths at school.
3.Where does this text most probably come from
A.An engineer textbook.

Barrington Irving made his historic flight and founded an educational non-profit-making organization.The secret,he believes,is having a dream in the first place,and that starts with learning experiences that inspire kids to build careers.
The moment of inspiration for Irving came in his parents’ bookstore.One customer,a professional pilot,asked Irving if he’d thought about becoming a pilot.“I told him I didn’t think I was smart enough;but the next day he took me to the cockpit(驾驶舱)of the commercial airplane he flew,and just like that I was hooked.”
To follow his dream,Irving turned down a football scholarship to the University of Florida.He washed airplanes to earn money and increased his flying skills by practising at home on a $40 flight simulator(模拟) video game.Then another dream took hold:flying alone around the world.He faced more than 50 rejections for sponsorship before convincing some companies to donate aircraft components.He took off with no weather radar,no de-icing system(除冰系统),and just $30 in his pocket.
After 97 days,26 stops and dozens of thunderstorms,he touched down to a cheering crowd in Miami.“It was seeing so many young people watching and listening that pushed me into giving back with my knowledge and experience.” Irving has been doing it ever since.He set up his non-profit-making organization,Experience Aviation(航空),aiming to increase the numbers of youth in aviation and science-related careers.“We want to create chances for students to accomplish something amazing,”he notes.The most powerful educational tool is the example his own life provides.
4.According to Irving,what is the most important in achieving success
A.Meeting people who provide unexpected help.
B.Getting a chance to study technical knowledge.
C.Having something specific that you want to accomplish.
D.Developing communication with different organizations.
5.What Irving replied to the pilot in the bookstore suggested that .
A.he was doubtful about his own abilities
B.he felt embarrassed to refuse the offer
C.he knew his efforts would be rewarded
D.he realized immediately how lucky he was
6.What can we lean about Irving in paragraph 3
A.He chose to reduce his budget as low as possible.
B.He was finally given enough money to keep going.
C.He got the most useful flying tips from his video game.
D.He took on a further challenge after he knew how to fly.
7.Why did Irving set up his non-profit-making organization
A.He hoped to become a public figure.
B.He saw there was great interest in what he was doing.
C.He expected to start a business in other fields.
D.He thought he could teach more than flight schools could.

Ⅳ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一份研究报告。报告称在校期间上网时间超过6小时的青少年更容易感到孤独,更容易逃学。
1.B 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The study found lower levels of well-being among students who spent more than six hours per day online.”可知,每天上网时间超过6小时的学生的幸福感较低,根据下文可知,These extreme Internet users 指的就是“每天上网时间超过6小时的学生”,故B项与原文相符。
2.B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The study results suggest limited use of computers at school may be better than not using them at all.”可知在学校正确使用电脑是有帮助的,故选B项。
3.C 推理判断题。本文主要介绍了一份研究报告,属于科学新闻报告类阅读,故应该出现在科学新闻报告上。

4.C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The secret,he believes,is having a dream in the first place,and that starts with learning experiences that inspire kids to build careers.”可知,在Irving看来,取得成功最重要的是有明确的目标。
5.A 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“I told him I didn’t think I was smart enough”可知,Irving告诉对方自己可能不够聪明,表明Irving怀疑自己的能力。
6.D 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Then another dream took hold:flying alone around the world.”可知,在他知道如何飞行之后,他接受了进一步的挑战。
7.B 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“It was seeing so many young people watching and listening that pushed me into giving back with my knowledge and experience.”及“Irving has been doing it ever since.He set up his non-profit-making organization...”可推知,促使Irving建立这个公益组织的原因是他看到人们对他所做的事非常感兴趣。
