26、Why can’t some people even get an inch of what they dream of being? Blame it on pure dreaming and lack of surrounding goals for achieving their dreams.

Setting goals is very significant part of accomplishing and positive actions. It is like scaling(攀爬) a 200 feet construction and marking in the early hours on what feet you would like to reach at this specific period.

People who set goals literally generate a map of their goal settings in life, marking where they should start, where to pause, where to study a bit, and where and when to end. Once this map comes into being, it allows the map drawer to check where he is in the scheme(安排) of things and whether or not he is making some planning that will take him closer to his goals.

By surrounding goals, people will know how they are doing and what they should be doing to get their goals or dreams in life. They will know if they can relax or if they have to double their efforts when they are falling short of what is expected of them.

Goal surroundings means a person is proactive in dealing with challenges that may affect his plans. Being proactive means one is able to outline possible difficulties that may occur as well as the solutions to these difficulties. By doing this, a person is not easily scared or defeated when challenges occur because he has already prepared for them. He knows they can happen and he has prepared a solution or strategy when that time comes.

Setting goals will enable people to track their progress in whatever hard work they set out to do. It will help people bee more confident in themselves and more motivated to get their plans.

【1】The purpose of this passage is to _______________.

A. explain the difference between the two goals.

B. show the importance of surrounding goals.

C. tell us how to set and achieve one’s goals.

D. tell us setting goals makes one confident.

【2】The underlined word “proactive” in paragraph 5 may have the closest meaning to “________”.

A. positive   B. careful

C. brave   D. prepared

【3】According to the author, one had better ___________ in making a goal in life.

A. take an active attitude

B. create a scheme as a whole

C. consider the possible troubles

D. check where he is frequently

【4】From the passage, we can reach the conclusion that___________________.

A. achievements come to those who are well prepared

B. everyone faces the situation which is scaring or threatening

C. the higher one sets his goal, the more achievements he will have

D. success never es to people who always blame

27、Laptop computers are popular all over the world. People use them on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms.

Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a $10 million computer program at Westlake, a 110-year-old college. The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet. In addition, they will be able to use e-mail to “peak” with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs. They can work with it at home, in a fast-food restaurant or under the trees—anywhere at all!

Because of the many changes in computer technology, laptop use in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable. As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. In addition, the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries and other resources. State higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.

At Westlake College, more than 60 percent of the staff use computers. The laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons. As one Westlake teacher said, “Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we’re giving students a window on the world. They can see everything and do everything.”

【1】The main purpose of the laptop program is to give each student a laptop to ________.

A．use for their schoolwork

28、Sign language, the primary form of communication of the deaf community, has been in use for hundreds of years. You're probably most familiar with American Sign Language, but sign language is used all over the world and has nearly 150 variations. Sign language interpreters can be seen everywhere from classrooms and graduation ceremonies to major sporting events.

When you think of sign language, you most likely imagine signers using their hands to form words and letters. However, hands are only one of the many different body language techniques that signers use to get their meaning across. In fact, much of the grammatical structure of sign language is not indicated by the signer's hands.

While the hands are responsible for forming the words themselves, markers called "non-manual elements" control much of the languages' grammatical structure. Non-manual elements (or markers) are body language techniques that don't use the hands. These include head movements, body positioning and facial expressions. Used together with the signs. these elements give sign language a subtle and extremely complicated grammatical structure. Linguist Andrea Lackner from Alpcn-Adria University in Austria did a study that shows just how important these non-manual elements are to sign language users.

The study assessed just how many different things non-manual elements can do. For this study, all participants were deaf users of Austrian Sign Language. They watched a video of someone using sign language, and they had to describe the purpose of each non-manual element. The results were very complicated. For instance, things as subtle as the direction of the signer's gaze can indicate whether or not a statement is hypothetical(假设的). A single head movement can indicate the emotion of a statement, a conditional or if situation, or a signer's feelings toward a hypothetical question. Body language is always important, but in sign language, it can change the entire meaning of a sentence!

【1】What do signers use their hands to do mostly?

A．To know people's words and letters.

B．To understand people's meanings.

C．To form the grammatical structure.

D．To form words and letters.

【2】What do non-manual elements include?

A．Words, sign language and body language.

B．Head movements, body language and signs.

C．Head movements, body positioning and facial expressions.

D．Body positioning, facial expressions and signs.

【3】What does the study show about sign language?

A．The main function of the non-manual elements.

B．The importance of the non-manual elements.

C．The influence of body language on sign language.

D．The influence of sign language on body language.

【4】What may be the best title for the text?

A．Non-manual Elements Counts in Sign Language

B．Ways to Avoid Being Misunderstood

C．Grammatical Elements in Sign Language

D．The Importance of Sign Language

29、   Age plays a major part in people who are infected with cold, i. e, in people who suffer from cold infection. A study done by University of Michigan has shown information that seems to be true for the general population. Babies are the most cold infected group, generally more than six colds in their first year. Boys have more colds than girls up to the age of three. After three, girls are easier to get infected with cold than boys, and teenage girls get three colds a year to boys' two. The general cold infections continue to get less into adults. Elderly people who are in good health have as few as one or two colds every year. One interesting thing is found among people in their twenties, especially women, who show a rise in cold infection , because people in this age group are most likely to have young children.

The study has also found that economy plays an important role as well. With more and more income, the frequency at which colds are reported in the family is getting lower and lower. Families with the lowest income usually live in rooms more crowded than rooms owned by richer people, and the crowding usually leads to more chances for the cold virus to travel from person to person. Low income may also have an effect on our diet. Many scientists believe that a poorer diet usually leads into more possibilities of cold infection.

【1】Which of the age groups has the highest frequency of cold infection?

A.Teenage boys. B.Small babies. C.Adult women. D.Elderly people.

【2】What's the passage mainly about?

A.A study on cold infection. B.Tips to avoid cold infection.

C.Major reasons leading to cold infection. D.The possible dangers of cold infection.

【3】How does economy play an important role in cold infection?

A.Families with lower income suffer less from cold infection.

B.People who have lower income enjoy living in crowded rooms.

C.Rich families can have better nutrition and never get infected.

D.People with higher income have fewer chances of infection.

【4】What does the author suggest for fighting against cold infection?

A.Make more money. B.Live in a bigger room.

C.Have a better diet. D.Stay in a shared place.
