Little Habits Make a Big Difference
Everything around us is changing at amazing speed, it seems---but some things will always remain the same. 1. Some of our daily habits have the power to always give us happiness and lead toward success. Here are some little habits that can make a big difference:
1. 2. Many studies have linked early rising with success. An early morning wake-up carries benefits including better planning and anticipation(预料)of problems, and more time to the things that make you happy.
2. Happiness comes to those who are curious. 3. As long as you live, there will always be something to learn, and as long as you follow your heart and your passions, you won’t miss out on learning.
3. Believe in yourself and all that you are. 4. Confidence is the key to success—the thing that lets you look at the past without regret, stay grounded in the present, and prepare for the future without fear.
4. A day well spent gets you a good night sleep. Enough sleep makes you feel healthier and happier, and it’s more than lifting up you or removing exhaustion(疲惫). Adequate sleep is a key part of your health and inner happiness. 5.
It doesn’t take a huge effort to make a significant change in your life---using one or two tiny habits may be all you need. Get started today and you’ll soon be experiencing the rewards.

I began to look for work after I finished the school last year. Now several month later, I still hadn’t found the job I was interested.

She has written over 250 books and is famous for writing one of the most popular children’s book series. She knew as early as early as 5th grade that she was interested in writing and science.

A new study says electronic toys are not helping babies learn.
"Even if companies are marketing them as educational, they're not teaching the babies anything at this time," said Anna Sosa the study's author.
Researchers listened to audio(声音的) recordings of parents playing with their babies aged 10 months to 16 months. The researchers compared the experiences when the children played with electronic toys, traditional toys such as blocks, or when the children looked at books. What they found is that parents talked less with their babies when the babies played with electronic toys.
Why is this important? Research shows that how quickly children develop language is often based on what they hear from parents. When the infants played with electronic toys, parents said little to their children. But with traditional toys, such as blocks, parents shared the names and descriptions of the animals, colors and shapes as their children played. There was even more information given by parents as their babies looked at the pictures in books.
Of course, there is no need for parents to throw out electronic toys, but they should look at their infants’ play with such toys as entertainment, not a learning experience.
Toy Industry Association spokeswoman Adrienne Appell responded to the study. She said it is important that parents make time to play with their children. "Playing is a way that kids can learn so much, not only cognitive(认知的) skills, but social and developmental skills," she said. She added that play should be balanced, including time for just "make believe" activities, as well as traditional and electronic toys.
1.What’s Anna Sosa’s attitude towards companies claiming that their toys are educational?
A. supportive B. indifferent C. uninterested D. doubtful
2.We can learn from the text that babies in the research ________.
A. liked traditional toys better than electronic toys
B. interact less with their parents when playing with electronic toys
C. talked little with their parents when playing with electronic toys
D. listened to audio recordings of their parents
3.Children develop language more quickly when their parents ________.
A. read them picture books often B. teach them how to speak
C. buy them a lot of toys D. throw away their electronic toys
4.According to Adrienne Appell, playing ________.
A. can’t take the place of learning
B. shouldn’t take most of children’s time
C. is good to children’s overall development
D. can’t develop children’s cognitive skills

The birth of the black tea and the first to reach the Western world from Fujian originated by accident. A Chinese army happened to stop by a tea farm in the late Ming Dynasty (1368—1644) and the soldiers slept on raw tea leaves which were intended for green tea making. Helpless and eager to avoid further loss, the anxious tea producer roasted the withered (枯萎的) tea leaves immediately afterwards, with pine branches, ending up with a deep colored tea, which produced bright red soup, a smoky taste and sweet flavour. To the tea farmer's surprise, the taste and flavour became a hit in the market, and the whole area started to make the kind of tea to satisfy market demand.
Around the end of the 16th century, Dutch business people took tea to Europe. Catherine of Braganza, when she married British King Charles Ⅱ in 1662, took the tea drinking habit from Portugal to the British court.
It was hard to say if people in the United Kingdom had the choice of drinking green tea, because it is said that after long sea transportation, green tea from China naturally fermented (发酵) into black tea. At the time British people still didn't know that black tea and green tea are made from the same leaves, so Scottish botanist Robert Fortune (1812—1880) met with disbelief when he pointed out that only a different processing method made black tea and green tea different.
Fortune was sent by the East India Company to steal tea from China. He took more than 20,000 tea plants and seedlings to India in 1851. Although most of the tea plants he introduced to India are said to have died, trained Chinese tea workers he took there are believed to have equipped the country with the necessary technology and knowledge for tea making.
1.The tea farmer invented red tea ________.
A. to get a better taste
B. to please the soldiers
C. to avoid losing more money
D. to satisfy market demand
2.According to the text, British people ________.
A. preferred green tea to black tea in the 17th century
B. made green tea transported from China into black tea
C. was the first in Europe to have the habit of drinking tea
D. thought black tea and green tea were made from different leaves
3.What did Fortune do according to the text?
A. He trained workers to make tea.
B. He brought tea plants and seedlings to Britain.
C. He learned knowledge and skills to make different kinds of tea.
D. He did something illegal for the East India Company.
4.What is the text mainly about?
A. The technology for tea making.
B. The origin of black tea.
C. The tradition of drinking tea in Britain.
D. The difference between black tea and green tea.

How to manage your time
For many high school students it seems that there is never enough time. There are several steps you can take to organize your time better.
First, make a to-do list every day. It makes it easy to plan any activities or meetings you may have in addition to homework. Be sure to set priorities（优先的事物）. 1.
Use spare time wisely. Do you have a study hall（自习时间）? Instead of wasting that time, read a book or do homework. 2. If a friend asks you to do something and you have homework to do, realize which is more important and see your friend later.
Decide on the time that is good for you to do certain things. If you are more of a morning person, try getting up an hour earlier and do schoolwork before school. Review your notes every day. 3. If you spend a few minutes at the end of every day going over what you learned, it will mean less time studying when it is time for the exam.
4. Studies have shown that getting enough rest helps your memory. When you are tired, everything seems more difficult. It is best to stay on a regular sleeping cycle as much as possible.
Tell your friends and family about your work timetable. Explain that you will be working at certain times and ask them not to disturb you. 5. you can call your friends later.
A. Set goals(目标) for yourself.
B. Get a good night’s sleep.
C. Do the most important tasks first.
D. Also, do not be afraid to say “no”.
E. You should finish your homework on time.
F. Don’t take phone calls during the time you set aside or work.
G. Don’t wait until just before a test to try and remember everything.
