Most people hate change, which is sad since we often go through intense changes in life. And for some of us, even the smallest changes can upset our day. So the question is: Why do most of us find making adjustments to our lives so hard?
Fear of change is nothing new. Over a century ago, the Parisians were unhappy over a particular addition to their city: the Eiffel Tower. In fact, the citizens were so angry about the plans for the tower that they protested its construction. As strange as it may seem, their anger was completely natural. They were given no choice about the huge change that was going to be made, so they became angry.
But we get upset over changes even when we do have a say in the matter and think about them carefully. Changes are brought about every day by the decisions we make: which school to attend, which job to take, whom to marry. Voluntary changes also make most of us uneasy because we don’t know how those changes will affect our future.
People have discovered that the key to overcoming the fear and anger associated with change is to be flexible. When they are flexible, people can adapt to new situations more easily. Being flexible is especially important in the 21st century as technology makes change occur faster than ever before. Those who oppose change, especially with technology in the workplace, may find themselves out of a job.
When change comes, and you have no choice but to face it, embrace it. A positive attitude helps a lot. In fact, the change may turn out to be the best thing for you. That new job you got may end up being much better than your old one. You may make the best friends of your life in the new city you moved to. Don’t merely focus on how you feel about change; instead decide to accept the change. The change is the reality, and it’s up to you whether the change will be a success or a failure. You never know – your next change may be your life’s Eiffel Tower!
1.Why did the building of the Eiffel Tower make the Parisians unhappy?
A. Because they didn’t like the design of the Eiffel Tower.
B. Because they couldn’t avoid accepting the Eiffel Tower.
C. Because it was no use building the Eiffel Tower.
D. Because the Eiffel Tower seemed strange.
2.According to the passage, it can be inferred that what won’t disturb us are _____________.
A. the changes that have agreement with one’s will
B. the small changes we meet in our daily life
C. the changes whose effect we can predict and control
D. the changes that we discuss or consider thoroughly
3.How should we overcome negative emotions that the changes bring?
A. We are not supposed to face the changes and let them alone.
B. We should actively accustom ourselves to the new circumstance.
C. We should not take the changes seriously and avoid them as much as possible.
D. We should know that the changes merely bring us bad influence.
4.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?
A. The change will probably make you fail like the Eiffel Tower.
B. The change is like the Eiffel Tower which is not good for our future life.
C. Your future life is never known just like the Eiffel Tower unknown to the Parisians.
D. Your future life is likely to be a great achievement due to the change.
5.What is the best title for the passage?
A. The Psychology of Change B. The ways to Overcome the Fear
C. Changes That Disturb Us D. The Bad Effect of Changes

A new factory that turns used wine bottles into green sand could revolutionize the recycling industry and help to filter(過濾)the nation's drinking water.
For the last 100 years special high grade white sand quarried(開采)at Leighton Buzzard in Bedfordshire has been used to filter tap water to remove bacteria and impurities—but this may no longer be necessary.
The green sand has already been successfully tested by water companies and is being used in 50 swimming pools in Scotland to keep the water clean.
Backed by one million pounds from the European Union and the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs(Defar),a company based in Scotland is building a factory to turn beverage bottles back into the sand from which they were made.
The idea is not only to avoid using up increasingly scarce sand in Scotland and avoid any further quarrying but also to solve a crisis in the recycles only 750 000 tones of it.
Howard Dryden, the scientist and managing director of the company has spent six years working on what he calls Active Filtration Meadia, or AFM, the recycled glass. He says he needs bottles that have already contained drinkable liquids to be sure that drinking water would not be polluted.
"The fact is that tests show that AFM does the job better than glass, it is easier to clean and reuse and has all sorts of properties that make it ideal for other applications, "he claimed. He also thinks the market will be able to take 250 000 tones of green sand a year. The plan is to build five or six factories in cites in UK where the bottles come from to cut down on transport.
The factory will be completed this month and is expected to go into full production on January 14 next year. Once it is providing a "regular" product, the government's drinking water inspectorate will be asked to perform tests and approve it for general use by water companies.
1.It may no longer be necessary to use high-grade white sand to keep water clean because_____.
A.there is no need to keep water clean
B.A new factory has been set up
C.The green sand has been used to keep the water clean
D.White sand is being use up
2.According to the passage ,the new idea can do the following except_____.
A. avoiding using up increasingly scarce sand
B. avoiding further quarrying of white sand
C. solving the crisis in the recycling industry
D. cutting down the cost on transport
3.Tests show that ______ in keeping the water clean.
A .AFM is more efficient than white sand
B.AFM is more efficient than glass
C. glass is more efficient than AFM
D. white sand is more efficient than green sand
4.The underlined word "Backed" in the third paragraph can best be replaced by"_____".
A. Allowed B. Opposed
C. Supported D. Forbidden
5.What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Revolution in the Recycling for the Industry.
B. Modern Technology an New Markets.
C. Revolution in Environmental Protection.
D. Unlocking the Benefits of Green Sand.

Ten Chinese PhD students are demanding that Beijing Normal University Professor Yu Dan be away from her television show on CCTV10. They argue that her on-air explanations of Confucius’s Analects (孔子《論語》) are “incorrect and misleading”. Yu is known for explaining Confucius’s Analects to a TV audience. But some complain that her explanations are unfaithful to Chinese tradition. But Yu doesn’t seem to worry too much about her critics, saying, “It’s a matter of personal choice. Some like KFC, while others like McDonalds.” |
STEALING some online gamer’s password might seem less harmful than credit card theft. It does keep the victim from wearing himself out all night playing. But it is not all that nice, says 19-year-old Zhang Qiwen, in Shanghai. Last August, Zhang accidentally downloaded a Trojan while playing Warcraft. The Trojan is a type of virus used by hackers to steal people’s passwords. Overnight the Trojan transferred all the “gold” (game credits) from Zhang’s private account to an unknown account. Zhang hopes the police will find and punish the thief, who can also pocket some cash since the stolen “gold” can go on sale online. |
New England’s largest indoor public garden has opened here in a historic park, and officials expect it to become a center for learning about plants as well as a top attraction for visitors. The glass-walled Roger Williams Park Botanical Center, which opened on March 2, offers a tropical garden, an orchid garden, and a Mediterranean room with a collection of citrus trees. The center also has two classrooms and will offer gardening classes provided by the University of Rhode Island. Roger Williams Park, named for the city’s 17th-century founder, also has a zoo. The park already attracts more than 2 million visitors a year, and Providence Mayor David Cicilline said that he expects the new center will attract more and more visitors to Providence. |
1.Which of the following statements is true?
A. Confucius’s Analects is like KFC or McDonalds in China now.
B. 19-year-old Zhang was angry because a hacker stole his “gold”.
