Life is too short to waste a moment, so while you still have time, let your hair down, remove that “boring” tag in your so-called life and start making it worthwhile. Below are some tips that will help you live a wonderful life.

1. Keep a Positive Attitude. Enjoy what you have and work on getting the things you desire. Psychologists believe that optimism (樂觀主義) is a good defense against unhappiness, so it is better to keep your optimism alive. Feeling sad about your life will only make you sadder, so be happy.

2. Don’t Be Afraid to Take Risks. Life is all about taking risks, and that’s the exciting part of it. Challenges and failure are part of life. Once you learn how to take risks, you’ll soon realize how good it feels not to let moments pass you by.

3. You only have one life, so make it worthwhile. Being unwilling to let the past go just keeps you away from the things you should be enjoying at the present.

4. List the Things You Want to Do. Stop lazing around and give yourself something to be busy with. Write down a list of all the things you want to do and make a timeline, not to stress you out, but to remind you of your goals. So don’t put limits to yourself because you’ll never know what may happen.

5. Try Out Something New. Getting into something or trying something unfamiliar to you may seem scary, but nothing can make you feel happier than being able to overcome your fear. Who knows? You might enjoy it! The world is a big place and there are still lots of things waiting to be explored by you. Go to a foreign place where you know no one.

1.From Tip One we know that we should _________ .

A．never be afraid to take risks               B．try something new every day

C．focus on the good things in life             D．get rid of all our former habits

2.What’s the best title for the third tip?

A．Enjoy Today and Let Go of the Past.          B．Never Think of Tomorrow.

C．Remember You Are the Best.               D．Never Change Your Mind.

3.The writer may NOT agree that _______.

A．feeling sad about your life does you no good

B．it’s good to keep yourself busy doing something

C．you shouldn’t go to a new place where you have no friends

D．you should enjoy the present instead of always thinking of the past

C
It is naturally impossible for a well educated, intellectual（懂道理的）,or brave man to make money-the chief of his thoughts; it is naturally impossible for him to make his dinner—the necessary object of him. All healthy—minded people like their dinner, but their dinner is not the main object of their lives. So all healthy—minded people like making money—but the main object of their lives is not money; it is something more important than money.
A good soldier for instance, mainly wished to do his fighting well. He is glad for his pay—very properly so, and justly complains when you keep him ten months without it; still his main aim of his life is to win battles, not to be paid for winning them.
As for doctors, they like fees, no doubt — ought to like them; yet if they are brave and well educated, the entire object（目標(biāo)） of their lives is not fees. They, on the whole, wishes to cure me sick, and—they are good doctors, and the choices is fairly put to them—would rather cure their patients and lose their fees than kill him and get it. And so with all other brave and rightly trained men—their work is first, their fees second, very important always, but still second. 
64. The text is mainly about ____.
A. money is not everything but no money is nothing
B. work is first but money is also important
C. work is the chief opinion of the good people’s lives
D. People like less work but more money
65. According to the text, it is ____ that a good solider will run away when a drowning man needs help but there is no money.
A. impossible        B. possible      C. clever           D. foolish  
66. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph means ____
A. their patient       B. their work    C. the object of lives  D. their money
67. If you are middle school teacher described in the text, what will you do if you are not paid for six months?
A. To quarrel with the headmaster
B. To go on teaching in this school
C. To give up the teaching in this school and find a teaching job in another school
D. To go on teaching after getting paid

A blocked airway(呼吸道) can kill someone in three to four minutes, but it can take more than eight minutes for an ambulance to arrive. So a simple procedure such as opening someone's airway can save their life while they're waiting for emergency medical help. This means you're more likely to give first aid to someone you know than a stranger.
There are many misconceptions(誤解) surrounding first aid. Below are the ‘most popular’ ones with details of what you should do.
You should put butter or cream on a burn. The only thing you should put on a burn is cold water - keep the butter for cooking. Put the affected area under cold running water for at least ten minutes.
The best way to treat bleeding is to put the wound under a tap. If you put a bleeding wound under a tap you wash away the body's clotting agents(凝血劑) and make it bleed more. Instead put pressure on the wound with whatever is available to stop or slow down the flow of blood. As soon as possible call 999. Keep pressure on the wound until help arrives.
Nosebleeds are best treated by putting the head back. If you put the head back during a nosebleed, all the blood goes down the back of the airway. Instead advise them to tilt(傾斜) their head forwards and ask the person to pinch(捏) the end of their nose and breathe through their mouth.
You need lots of training to do first aid. You don’t - what you mostly need is common sense. You can learn enough first aid in a few minutes to save someone's life – whether it’s from a book, attending a course or watching videos online.
Remember: anyone can save a life
【小題1】The most important point to save a person’s life is to ensure _____.

A．his smooth breath
B．a(chǎn)mbulances’ arriving time
C．the quiet surroundings
D．emergency medical help
【小題2】If a person is burnt, what you should do immediately is to _____.
A．put some cream on the burn area
B．cook some butter for the burn
C．place the burn under cold running water
D．wash the affected area for a long time
【小題3】If a bleeding wound is put under a tap, what should happen?
A．It will help the bleeding stop at once.
B．It will help produce more clotting agents.
C．It will produce more pressure on the wound
D．It will bleed more and hard to stop
【小題4】Which of the following statement is RIGHT?
A．When a person’s nose bleed, please put the head back.
B．You can learn first aid in quickly in different ways.
C．When a person is burnt, crap the burn until help arrives.
D．Not everyone can do first aid to save a life.
【小題5】The passage mainly tells us _____.
A．how to learn first aid by yourself
B．some misunderstanding about first aid
C．the importance of first aid
D．how to help medical team save a life

Seven Simple Rules for Dad
My main object in life is to make sure I do the best possible job rais­ing Tommy, now aged ten. That means I have to be the best possible father I can be. I am no psychologist, but I do see what succeeds with my son and me. I also observe other fathers. Here is what I have found works best in the dad department.
1.
【小題1】
The key to a happy child is having a dad who is there with him consis­tently, day in and day out. It is far better to spend evening after evening just sitting near him while he reads a book or plays on the computer than to spend a couple of hours every Saturday buying him toys or taking in a movie.
2. Share your strengths and fears.
You are your child's ally, not his adversary. The child who knows that his father was once afraid of the dark, and is still afraid of needles, gets to know that his own weaknesses are part of mankind, not a unique shame.
3.
【小題2】
 Encouragement is the primary engine of human development. I have been telling Tommy for a year now that he is a whiz in math because I know he can calculate in a nanosecond the number of toys he can buy with his allowance. Now he's a whiz in math at school too. Consistent recognition of a child's strengths is more important by far than vitamins. You deny it to them at their peril and yours.
4. Do not allow your children to be rude.
My son is expected to share, answer others when they greet him and congratulate those who succeed. By teaching him about politeness, I make sure he realizes that others' feelings are worth taking into account. If he can get that into his little towhead, he will have learned the most basic foundation of human interaction.
5.
【小題3】
A common misstatement about child development is that “kids don't come with instruction manuals(操作指南).” Not true—they do. They tell you when they’re hungry. They tell you when they're lonely or scared. They are like little guided tours of themselves. Children will tell you what they want, although not always with words. Fatigue, irritability and sadness are ways of telling Dad what they need. Look and listen.
6.
【小題4】
When Tommy knows he is loved for himself, not for any particular accomplishment, he has a certain peace that allows him to learn better, sleep better, play better, be more helpful around the house. Whether he becomes a rocket scientist or a plumber, I want Tommy to know he's No. 1 with me.
7.
【小題5】
If you decide your kids come before your sales quota or bridge game, you will find that all the other pieces of Daddyhood fall into place. When you put your kids first, you're getting the most value for every hour on earth. What’s more, you have made the rightest decision of your life.
