Use phones respectfully
You probably spend ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) more time with your smart phone than any other possession. You take it everywhere — to school, to meals, and even to the bathroom, 36 But we have to learn to use our phones respectfully or at least without offending others around us. Here are some tips for smart phone usage. Take a look.
Use “do not disturb” instead of “vibrate（振动）”
Loud vibratio ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ns in your pants are disturbing. People can hear your phone vibrate, depending on how severely it vibrates. 37
Tell others what you’re doing
Sometimes, you wil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l be in a situation in which you need to use your smart phone. 38 If you don’t, people will think that you’re either interacting with someone else or just getting bored.
39
Respect others’ pr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ivacy as text and e-mail senders by not letting what they type appear on the home screen of your phone when you receive a new message. While you’re at it, use a password to make sure the information you share with others stays between you.
Ask permission to swipe（滑动）
When someone han ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ds you their phone to look at a photo, this doesn’t mean you can swipe through all of their photo albums. 40
A. Don’t use the text preview feature on your home screen.
B. It is difficult to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ignore and distracts people from whatever they are doing.
C. You should use your smart phone secretly.
D. They probably want ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) you to see the one photo they hand to you, not every photo they have taken.
E. Of course, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a smart phone is a great way to keep in touch and share life events.
F. So it’s thrilling to look through all their photos.
G. Just tell people what you’re doing and why you’re doing it.

How to Love Your Parents
Even if you think ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )that your parents are mean-spirited at times, loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life．You love them for the fact that they created you, raised you, and are in part, a source of who you are．__36
Tell them you ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )love them every morning．A gentle "good morning" and "I love you" will warm a coldest heart． Remember that they brought you into this world． Without your parents, we might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world．
Respect them more ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )and cherish these moments．You can use these moments to learn from them, preparing yourself for when you're off on your own．It's OK to get angry but angry actions don't help you or your parents． Act calmly, cool off, write down your feelings, or talk to a friend．
37
Obey their request ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s． It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them．It may seem like you are going through hell when you don't get what you want or you have to clean．However, you had better remember they keep a roof over your head when it's cold, raining, snowing, or too hot．Understand that parents are human beings and make mistakes． 38 Since you can forgive your friends, why not forgive your parents
Keep company with ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) them．Do things with your parents like watching TV, or go somewhere with them． 39 Listen to their old stories and learn from them． You will find they are your teachers in this way or another．
Some people ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )simply may not be able to love their parents． 40 Seek help if you are being abused（虐待）in any way． Parents do not have a right to harm you．
A． Parents will in turn express their love to you．
B． Forgiveness is the key．
C． Here are some ways to love your parents．
D． There can ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) be realistic reasons for this, family violence for example．
E． Anyway, spend as much time with them as you can．
F． After this, share your feelings with your parents．
G． Please remember parents are as important as friends．

The Secret of Success
The secret of succes ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s is that there is no secret. Some people succeed because they are just __41__ than other people. Some people succeed because they just work harder than other people. And some people succeed because they are just plain lucky.
Ma Donghan is a st ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )udent at Tsinghua University who is __42__ to be successful and she’s not going to leave it to luck. Ma is obviously smart because she’s a student at the best university in China, but her plan for success is __43__ on the old fashion value of hard work. You can see that by the weekly schedule she’s set up for herself which was recently posted online.
Every hour of ev ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ery day is accounted for. There is her classroom __44__, of course, but then blocks of time are set aside for __45__ each subject and also for a few activities like playing sports. There are no hours set aside for just relaxing and there are only five hours allotted (分配) each night for sleeping. She has set a very __46__, almost punishing schedule for herself, but it seems to be working.
Other students __47 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )__ at Ma’s diligence and discipline but doubt that they could achieve the same level of success. Perhaps not, but Ma is obviously a unique and special __48__. She has set high goals, made a plan to achieve those goals, and worked hard to keep to her plan. This is what other students can learn from Ma.
In school, as in life ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ), __49__ is never guaranteed and not everyone will find him or herself at the top of the pyramid. The important thing to remember is that having a plan and working hard to stay with the plan will bring you a level of success that just being smart and lucky cannot.

[1]Growing up on a r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )emote Michigan farm，Henry Ford knew little of all this—but he soon showed signs that he belonged to a new generation of Americans who were interested more in the industrial future than in the agricultural past.Like most pioneer farmers，his father，William，hoped that his eldest son would join him on the farm.But Henry______________.He hated farm work and tried his best to avoid it.It was not that he was lazy.Far from it.Give him a mechanical job to do，from mending the gate to sharpening tools，and he would set to work eagerly.

A few things to consider before booking a flight
Since you can’t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) drive to all your dream destinations, flying is the only way to go sometimes and, undoubtedly, the fastest. Luckily，there are plenty of ways to find the most affordable fares and also avoid paying as many extra charges as possible when you plan ahead.
Fly during the least ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) popular times, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday are the slowest days to fly, which means cheaper deals than the rest of the week.______ 36 , since many people don’t like to get up before the sun to get to the airport.
37 . Some air ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lines charge you to pick your seat when you book online, adding even more to the bottom line of your ticket cost. If you show up early on your travel day, you can still get suitable seats. Some of the best seats get held back until flight day, unless others are willing to pay extra for them ahead of time, so you still have the chance at one of those.
Don’t wait until the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) last-minute to book. Many travelers don’t know that there’s a sweet spot for booking and getting the best price on your tickets. Book too early or too late and you could end up paying more than you need to. 38 .
Fly carry-on ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )only. Baggage fees vary wildly，but almost all airlines charge them and charge big. Why pay for your clothes to fly with you If everyone in your travel party checks a bag, your bill can be astronomical before you ever even get to your destination. 39 . For example, make sure all your clothing suitable, so you can take less and still make more outfit combinations, take only two pairs of shoes, plan to do a bit of laundry on your trip and bring only travel-sized clothing.
40. Unle ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ss you're flying internationally, it's rare that your flight comes with a free meal. Snacks on the plane are not cheap and almost never healthy. Don’t rely on what’s on the small menu and instead tuck some of your own snacks into your bag.
A. Pack your own snacks
B. Choose your seat later
C. So reduce the amount of stuff you pack
D. Eat a lot better, and cheaper than other passengers
E. You can also find reduced rates on early morning flights
F. The best ti ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )me to book is between three months and six weeks from when you want to travel
G. Save big if y ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ou’re willing to travel on major holidays, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas

The first explo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rers who saw totem poles called them “monstrous figures.” Missionaries(传教士) thought that the Native Americans worshipped the totem poles, and they encouraged their destruction. But the missionaries were wrong. Even today, when people refer to the “low man on the totem pole, ” they do not realize that the largest figure was usually on the bottom and was the most important.
The origin o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f the first totem pole is uncertain. It is known that totem poles told stories about rich and important Native American families. An artist carved the pole to represent a family’s traits and personal strengths and even to have hidden meanings.
Poles were c ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )arved from cedar（雪松木）, using handmade tools. The chisel（凿子）used for carving was made from an animal horn. The adze, which was like an ax, had a hard stone blade. Once finished carving, the artist used animal-hair brushes to paint the poles. Some poles stood as high as 60 feet(180m).
Native Americans celeb ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rated important life events—such as births or marriages—with huge feasts called potlatches. One of the highlights of the party was the raising of a new totem pole. As trade expanded along the Northwest Coast, more Native American families had totem poles.
However, in 18 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )84 the Canadian government outlawed the potlatch. Not long after, the United States followed suit. As children grew up and left the tribe, the art of carving totem poles began to die out.
Many years l ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ater, totem poles that had been bought or stolen from Native American villages began showing up in museums. People started to realize the significance of totem poles, and the art of carving them was resurrected. Old poles were restored, and new poles were created. Today, the craft is alive and well again, and totem poles can be seen around the Northwest United States and Canada.
(Note: Answer ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)
81. What did missionaries want to do with the totem poles
82. What’s the main purpose of totem poles

Urbanization(都市化)
Until relativ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ely recently, the vast majority of human beings lived and died without ever seeing a city. The first city was probably founded no more than 5, 500 years ago. 1 . In fact, nearly everyone lived on farms or in tiny rural(乡村的)villages. It was not until the 20th century that Great Britain became the first urban society in history—a society in which the majority of people live in cities and do not farm for a living.
Britain was on ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ly the beginning. 2 . The process of urbanization—the migration(迁移)of people from the countryside to the city—was the result of modernization, which has rapidly transformed how people live and where they live.
In 1990, fewer ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) than 40% of Americans lived in urban areas. Today, over 82% of Americans live in cities. Only about 2% live on farms. 3 .
Large cities we ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re impossible until agriculture became industrialized. Even in advanced agricultural societies, it took about ninety-five people on farms to feed five people in cities. 4 . Until modern times, those living in cities were mainly the ruling elite(精英)and the servants, laborers and professionals who served them. Cities survived by taxing farmers and were limited in size by the amount of surplus food that the rural population produced and by the ability to move this surplus from farm to city.
Over the past two ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) centuries, the Industrial Revolution has broken this balance between the city and the country. 5 . Today, instead of needing ninety-five farmers to feed five city people, one American farmer is able to feed more than a hundred non-farmers.
A. That kept cities very small.
B. The rest live in small towns.
C. The effects of urban living on people should be considered.
D. Soon many other industrial nations became urban societies.
E. But even 200 years ago, only a few people could live in cities.
F. Modernization dre ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )w people to the cities and made farmers more productive.

Do you know what a b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ig dream is 1 Or, is a big dream something that provides only entertainment Children dream big dreams, but there are three barriers to realizing dreams. They often kill them before they ever have a chance to grow.
The Self
Immediately ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )following the birth of a big dream, a negative self-talk takes over and gives all the reasons why it cannot happen. This inside voice is the ego(自我). It’s there for protecting and should be listened to. 2 Most people are influenced by the inside voice. That’s why only a handful of people make their dreams come true.
3
Family and f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )riends are a lot like the ego. They want to protect those they love, so they will often list all the reasons why the big dreams won’t come true. Sometimes, family and friends destroy dreams of those they love most, out of their own fear of being left behind.
The World
If one gets past the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )first two barriers, one has to face the world. 4 In the past, big dreamers were locked up and sometimes even killed when they were shown to the world. Fortunately, in most of the world today, big dreamers just get laughed at.
The way to re ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )alize a big dream is with confidence and action. When children have confidence and then take action, they will be ready to accept any failure. The truth is that every great dreamer whose dreams have never seen the light of success knows failure well. 5
A. Family and Friends
B. How Big Dreams Die
C. Does a big dream show one’s future
D. They simply fail until they succeed.

Forgiveness
To forgive is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research.
1 Try the following steps:
Calm yourself ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ). 2 You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.
Don’t wait for ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way. 3 Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.
Take the control aw ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ay from your offender(冒犯者). Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.
4 If you un ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )derstand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love. You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view.

[2]First，understand t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hat independent reading is not guided or shared reading.You may be present in the room with your son or daughter，but you will not be engaged in reading the book for your child.Instead，the child should pick up a book on his or her own，whether or not he or she can read all the words.
[3]Not only does this ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )kind of independent reading increase a child’s imagination，focus，comprehension and vocabulary，but it also allows him or her to build interest in a subject.For example，if he or she finds the Roman Empire fascinating，independently reading about that_time_period could broaden his or her understanding of society.
[4]One of the best ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ways to raise a youngster’s interest in independent reading is to become an independent reader yourself.Turn off the TV and open the newspaper.Take time at the end of the day as a family to enjoy some free reading moments.The more you do it yourself，the more likely your child will be to accept it as a proper，regular thing to do.You can also begin building your child’s personal “library”．That way，he or she will have many choices of books to peruse during independent reading.
[5]Remember ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )that reading achievement is linked to a love of independent reading.So the next time your child picks up a book，allow him or her to have some private moments.You’ll never regret your decision to embrace independent reading.
1．Fill in the blank ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) in Paragraph 1 with proper words.(no more than 6 words)

If you have eve ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r been rock climbing，then you will know that it is not a very easy sport.In fact you probably felt quite defeated when you first tried to do any serious climbing.Indoor and outdoor rock climbing are both extremely demanding and，like anything else，require practice to get good at.What most people don't know is that the sport of rock climbing is one of the most physically and mentally demanding sports.
There are three bas ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ic types of rock climbing.Top roping is probably one of the most common types and is basically climbing with a partner.The second type，which is very similar to top roping，is called lead climbing.In both of these types of rock climbing，the climber can sit off the wall and rest on the rope.
The third type ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )of rock climbing is called bouldering.Bouldering is a type of free climbing without any ropes.This is the most demanding of all climbing types.The climber must be able to complete the climbing without taking a rest on the rope.
Believe it or no ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t，climbing is said to be about 75% legs and only 25% arms.To climb efficiently and successfully，a person needs to have a wonderful technique.One of the major rules of rock climbing is to always have three points touching the wall，whether it is both feet and one hand，or one foot and both hands，as it is much easier to have your weight rest on three points than on two.Another important idea to grasp is that your arms in most cases will not do the climbing；they only hold you onto the wall so that your legs are actually pushing you upward.Also，the closer you are to the wall，the easier it is to climb.
Rock climbing may ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sound a bit too extreme for the everyday person，but it is really an amazing workout once you get into the sport and learn how to position your body to deal with some difficult problems.One great thing about rock climbing is that it is mentally challenging as well.You are constantly analyzing the way your body moves and how to do certain moves on the wall.For anyone who wants to get into shape，rock climbing is a fun and effective way to exercise muscles.

Directions: Read the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
A finding in rec ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ent years shows that men cannot manufacture blood as efficiently as women can. This makes surgery riskier for men. Men also need more oxygen because they do not breathe as often as women. But men breathe more deeply and this exposes them to another risk. They draw more of the air into their lungs when it is polluted.
Men’s bones ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )are larger than women’s and they are arranged somewhat differently. The female walk that causes so many whistles is a matter of bone structure. A man has broader shoulders and a narrower pelvis(骨盆), which makes him walk with no waste motion. A woman’s wider pelvis, designed for childbearing, forces her to put more movement into each step she takes with the result that she displays a bit of jiggle and sway(摇摆) as she walks.
If you think a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) man is brave because he can climb a ladder to clean the roof, don’t forget it is easier for him than for a woman. The angle at which a woman’s thigh(大腿) is joined to her knees makes climbing difficult for her, whether it is a ladder or stairs or a mountain that she is climbing.
A man’s skin is thi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )cker than a woman’s and not nearly as soft. This prevents the sun’s radiation from getting through, which is why men wrinkle less than women do. Women have a thin layer of fat just under the skin and there is a plus to this greater fat reserve. It acts as an invisible fur coat to keep a woman warmer in the winter. Women also stay cooler in summer because the fat layer helps protect them against heat. Men’s fat is distributed differently. And they do not have that layer of it underneath their skin. In fact, they have considerably less fat than women and more muscle. 41 percent of a man’s body is muscle compared to thirty-five percent for women, which means that men have more muscle power. The higher proportion of muscle to fat makes it easier for men to lose weight. Muscle burns up five more calories a pound than fat does just to maintain itself. So when a man wants to lose weight, the pounds roll off much faster.

Having a hap ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )pier life is something we all always struggle for. One of the key foundations of that is to be consistent in doing things that bring happiness. 36 Consider these 4 habits:
1. Laugh in the middle of a busy day.
It’s 3 pm on a Su ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nday afternoon and you’re desperate to leave, for school. On top of the homework, you’re running close to super important deadline. 37 Just take a moment to laugh. You should laugh more often, especially on a busy day.
2. Do not compare yourself to others.
Measure your own ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) successes based on your progress and only yours. 38. No one is better than any one else.
3. Find time to work out regularly and eat well.
Exercise can prod ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )uce tons of feel-good hormones（荷尔蒙）. 39 Feeding your body with whole and nutritious foods, on the other hand, can positively affect your body in both short and long term. Find time to schedule in a workout even if it’s only thirty minutes and do something you love. Eat well because foods can help you stay focused and more energized, and happier as a whole.
4. End each day with gratitude.
40 It might ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )be something as small as a child’s laugh or something as huge as a praise from the headmaster. Whatever it is, be grateful for that day because it will never come again.
A. All of our lives are unique.
B. Surround you with people who matter.
C. Don’t blame everything not going your way.
D. Try to think you are better than anyone else.

Space Travel and Science Fiction
Space travel and s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )cience fiction have long been connected. Early science fiction writers such as Jules Verne inspired scientists and engineers to develop new space technologies. Writers of science fiction, as well as creators of science fiction TV shows and movies, often study the latest scientific concepts and use or adapt them to help expose what future space travel, space ships, and space stations might look like. And while many of their predictions have come true, many others have not.
Jules Verne ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )(1828-1905) was a French author. He was a pioneer of science fiction. In his novels From the Earth to the Moon (1865) and Around the Moon (1870), a kind of space ship is fired from a 900-foot-long cannon(大炮) at the moon. On their journey, the three travelers are deprived of gravity at one point and float around their small ship. When landing on the moon, rockets are used to slow the ship down.
Given the ye ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ar in which he was writing, Verne’s predictions were very good. The size of his space ship is about the size of the first one to go to the moon, the Apollo, minus its large rockets. Both Verne’s ship and the Apollo carried three people into space. Furthermore, rockets were indeed used by the Apollo to slow its descent. However, Verne’s ship, by analogy(相似) with a gun, shot his travelers into space, which never could have worked. The intense pressure of such an event would cause great physiological damage to the crew.
During the first h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )alf of the 20th century, science fiction novels and comic books were widely distributed in the United States. Their portrayal(描写) of space travel was less far-fetched than Verne’s. Pictures began showing astronauts in space suits, as writers realized that exposure of human beings to space was deadly. Ideas of other planets were still often wrong, though. A 1928 drawing of the surface of a moon of the planet Jupiter shows it covered in plant life. Only later was it discovered that other than Earth, the planets and moons around our sun are without life as we know it. Drawings in the early 20th century showed very large space ships and stations. They were like floating cities. Writers at the time knew that trips to other stars would take hundreds of years. Those who left Earth would die on the journey; their descendants would arrive. Some writers avoided this problem by using the concept of suspended animation—a deep sleep in which a person doesn't grow older. Such travelers would awaken at the end of their journey, hundreds of years in the future. It is not impossible that these ideas could become reality one day.
After the American ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )space program had begun, the television show Star Trek became very popular. It follows the adventures of a large space ship with over 400 crew members that flies around the universe at speeds faster than light. This is a wonderful dream, but it will probably never come to fulfillment. The laws of physics tell us that it is quite impossible for any object to travel faster than the speed of light.
It’s clear to see th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at science fiction has progressed along with science and technology. Science fiction writers continue to study scientific concepts and to use them to portray the future. Looking back at their ideas, some were correct and cannot be distinguished from today’s reality; many others were nothing but fiction. But, they have always inspired new generations of humans to dream of someday going into space.
According to the pa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ssage, what did early science fiction writers do to help reveal what future space travel might look like

[3]Back in those d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ays，traffic signals were just “stop” or “go”．And a lot of times，the sign would switch while a car was in the middle of the intersection—with no time to get out.That gave Morgan an idea.He created a traffic signal that had a third function—the “warning” sign that had been missing up until that point.And on November 20th,1923，the US Patent Office officially recognized his new invention.
[4]Originally，the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )traffic signal that Morgan invented had to be operated manually instead of auto switch.Eventually，he sold the rights to his traffic signal to General Electric Company，which led to the creation of the modern traffic light.

Directions: Read ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. By almost any measure, there is a boom in Internet-based instruction. In just a few years, 34 percent of American universities have begun offering some form of distance learning (DL), and among the larger schools, it’s close to 90 percent. If you doubt the popularity of the trend, you probably haven’t heard of the University of Phoenix. It grants degrees entirely on the basis of online instruction. It enrolls 90,000 students, a statistic used to support its claim to be the largest private university in the country.
While the kinds of i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nstruction offered in these programs will differ, DL usually indicates a course in which the instructors post syllabi (课程大纲), reading assignment, and schedules on websites, and students send in their assignments by e-mail. Generally speaking, face-to-face communication with an instructor is minimized or eliminated altogether.
The attract ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ion for students might at first seem obvious. Primarily, there’s the convenience promised by courses on the Net: you can do the work, as they say, in your pajamas. But figures indicate that the reduced effort results in a reduced enthusiasm to the course. While dropout rate for all freshmen at American universities is around 20 percent, the rate for online students is 35 percent. Students themselves seem to understand the weaknesses internal in the setup. In a survey conducted for Cornell, the DL division of Cornell University, less than a third of the respondents expected the quality of the online course to be as good as the classroom course.
Clearly, f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rom the schools’ perspective, there’s a lot of money to be saved. Although some of the more ambitious programs require new investments in servers and networks to support collaborative software, most DL courses can run on existing or minimally upgraded systems. The more students who enroll in a course but don’t come to campus, the more school saves on keeping the lights on in the classrooms, paying doorkeepers, and maintaining parking lots. And, while there’s evidence that instructors must work harder to run a DL course for a variety of reasons, they won’t be paid any more, and might well be paid less.
(Note: Answer the q ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )uestions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 10 WORDS.)
78. The author ment ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ioned the University of Phoenix to make us believe that _____________.

【2015高考复习】任务型读写
Almost everyon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e has many good wishes and beautiful dreams. Some may want to improve their living conditions, some may want to receive good education and some may want to become wealthy and successful. Though many people think that there is a short cut to success, I hold a different view. I always believe that wealth and success can only be gained by working hard, firm faith and good attitude. I have met different people who have gained wealth and success eventually and I want to share their keys to success. I hope the words below can really help you when you are pursuing wealth and success.
Before doing any p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ractical things, you should adjust your attitude first. Keeping a good attitude is a key to pursuing wealth and success. During the process of chasing wealth and success you will definitely encounter obstacles and failures, if you have a bad attitude, you will feel frustrated and even want to give up your dreams. Positive and healthy attitude allows you to remain confident even in difficult conditions.
Clear goals and obje ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ctive are essential to the success of any business. All wealthy and successful people have a common feature—they all have clear goals. If one has a clear goal, he may know how to achieve the goal and his job will be filled with opportunities. Contrarily speaking, without a clear goal, one may have no idea how to achieve wealth and success.
Rich knowledg ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e can be considered as the building blocks of success. Besides good attitude, rich knowledge also helps you a lot when you are facing difficulties and obstacles. You need knowledge to plan your goals, solve problems and gain wealth and success. Once you set your goals, you need to learn new knowledge to achieve the goals.
Wealth and success ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) can not be achieved without persistent effort. If you want to become a marathon champion, you need to practice every day. Similarly, if you want to become wealthy and successful, you need to work hard until you succeed. Wealth and success always favor those who have a strong will power.
Maybe you do not ag ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ree with this point. You may think that luck is beyond your control or you can gain wealth and success without luck. But I want to tell you that you can control your luck and it also influences your success. You can build relationships with other people as many as possible to enhance your luck.

Telling Tales
“Here’s a nice bi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t of gossip!” Do I have your attention Probably. We listen, but 41______ we often feel terrible with ourselves. That’s the problem with gossip: it’s something that as a social species we are primed to enjoy, but it can also be 42______ and harmful.
Not all gossip is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )bad. Small talk establishes relationships and 43______ the other person that our intentions are friendly. So gossip, in the sense of exchanging bits and pieces of news about ourselves and others, can be perfectly 44______. If I say to you, “Let’s meet for coffee and have a bit of a gossip,” I’m inviting you to a social 45______ in which two people chew the fat. There is nothing wrong with that: life would be very dull if we were unable to talk about what goes on around us.
But it’s not that s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )imple. If we say that somebody is a gossip, we do not mean that he or she enjoys gentle social chat: it carries a crueler 46______. A true gossip enjoys spreading stories about other people --- stories in which others do not usually come out 47______. The gossip is one who spreads bad gossip; good gossip is still fine, but it’s not what gossips spread. The distinction between good and bad gossip is not always clear. It would be easy if we could 48______ the two by saying that bad gossip is just about people; but innocent gossip may be about people too. The best way to tell the difference is to look at the intention behind the remarks. Bad gossip 49______ itself in its desire to make the 50______ of the story look foolish. It also intrudes on their privacy. So we all know the difference.
