Are you unsure of the future? Do you feel as if you have put in a lot of effort, yet you still haven’t gotten anywhere? Are your relationships getting sour? If the answer to all these questions is yes, then you’re in for some serious reflection.

      A negative perspective (觀點) on life will definitely not do you any good．It will only stop you from achieving your goals, and will make you feel more and more unhappy．When you lack self-confidence, you tend to play safe and do just what is needed instead of exploring your full potentials(潛力)．Your fears and self doubt are in fact the main villains that stop you from achieving success and keep you from living the life that you truly want．Understand this: the barrier(障礙) to your happiness is your own insecurity and cowardly manner．

      How do you escape your self-bondage (自我束縛)? With the help of individuals who have gone through life’s tragedies without being affected, such as Rebecca Richmond, a widely admired life coach, you can take hold of your life and transform yourself from being afraid into a person with a positive outlook who is ready to get hold of the bright future that awaits you．The most important thing that you need to realize is that you have the power to change your life．You can reach unimaginable heights if you only believe in your ability to do so．See the unlimited opportunities that are set before you．Take challenges as lessons that make you strong and mature．

      Do not let your painful past dictate the person that you would become．Open your eyes and see the beautiful person that you are．You deserve to live a better life — one that is full of love, peace of mind, and prosperity．

　　 Everybody has had at least one experience from which he knows the meaning of life. This time, which took place several years ago, but seems as if it just happened.

On an afternoon several years ago, my brother-in-law opened the bottom drawer of my sister’s dress and picked out a beautiful skirt. “ Jan bought this the first time we went to New York, at least 8 or 9 years ago. She never wore it. She was saving it for a special occasion.” he said．I guess this was the occasion: it was the funeral of my sister, after her unexpected death.

He took the shirt and put it on bed, with the other clothes we were taking to the funeral. Then he closed the drawer and turned to me, “Don’t ever save anything for a special occasion. Every day you’re alive is a special occasion.”

I’m thinking about his words, and they’ve changed the way I live my life. I’m spending more time with my family and friends and less time in committee meetings. Whenever possible, life should be a kind of experience to enjoy, not to suffer. “Someday ”and “one of these days ”are losing their importance on my vocabulary. If it’s worth seeing or hearing or doing, I want to see and hear and do it now.

Ever since that day, I have been trying very hard not to put off, hold back or save anything that would add laughter and color to our lives. Every morning when I open my eyes, I tell myself that every day, every minute, every breath, truly is a gift. So cherish every day and find the true meaning of your life.

66．Why did Jan buy the beautiful skirt but didn’t wear it?

　　　 A．She waited for a special occasion to wear it on.

　　　 B．She wanted to keep it for someone else.

　　　 C．She saved it till she grew up.

　　　 D．She would give it to herself as a gift some day.

67．What does the underlined word “cherish” mean?

　　　 A．Treasure. B．Waste.　　 C．Own.　　　 D．Save

68．From his experience, the author learns that_______.

　　　 A．everybody can have a happy life through efforts

　　　 B．every day in our lives is worth cherishing

　　　 C．enjoying ourselves is the most important thing in our lives

　　　 D．everybody will have some things left to do after his death

69．What’s the best title for this passage?

　　　 A．Every Day IS a Gift

　　　 B．My Sister Jan

　　　 C．What Is the Meaningful Life like　　

　　　 D．The Most Important Time in Your Life

The disadvantage you usually find about MP3 players like the iPod is that they are too big. But get ready for the MP3 player in your hand to get much smaller—the size of a Band-Aid (創(chuàng)可貼).

It’s called the Skinny Player, and it’s being designed by industrial designers Chih-Wei Wang and Shou-His Fu. Unlike the current types of iPod Shuffles and iPod Nanos, the Skinny Player does not need to be fixed onto your clothes or put into your pocket. It could stick to your skin(皮膚) like you would attach a Band-Aid. But unlike Band-Aids, this tiny MP3 player will not lose its stickiness as you pull it off for the hundredth time.

The Skinny Player features flexible speakers allowing the user to enjoy music conveniently. When it gets dirty, the user can simply clean it using a damp cloth. No batteries either. The Skinny Player’s designers say it will be powered by body heat, using a flexible battery charging device (充電器) that is in contact with skin whenever the player is being used.

The design only include an on/off button and flexible speakers, no word yet on arranging the volume. Besides, the memory capacity(儲存容量) won’t be the best, as it is designed to only store one album.

The small size and the ability to stick it onto your skin like a Band-Aid should make the Skinny Player perfect for runners who now depend on their iPod to keep them energized on the running path.

There was a Bulgarian(保加利亞的) boy who was an exchange student in the USA. He lived with an American family. One day, he went to his room in the evening, and did his homework. His host-mom came to him and asked if he would like to go along to the movies. He wanted to go, so he shook his head from side to side, said “Yes”. His host-mom did a couple of steps back, and looked puzzled.

She thought that he didn’t want to go out because he shook his head from side to side. However, he wanted to go out to the movies. Bulgarians shake their heads from side to side when they mean “yes”. People in other countries shake their heads from side to side when they mean “no”.
