In this modern world, we rush around all day, doing things, talking, sending and reading messages. We are always on ,always conected, always thinking, always talking. There is no  36  for stillness.

And when we are  37  to be still because we’re in line for something, or waiting at a doctor’s appointment, or on a bus or train, we often  38  something to do. Some will play with mobile devices, other will read something. Being still isn’t something we’re  39  .

This comes at a   40  : we lose that time for  41  , for observing and listening. We lose peace.

And   42  yet: sometimes too much action is worse than no action at all. You can run around crarily, but get  43  done.

Take a moment to think about  44  you spend your days. Are you constantly rushing around? Are you constantly reading and answering  45  checking on the news and the latest tream of information? Are you always  46  through your schedule?

Is this how you want to spend your  47  ? If so, peace be with you. If not, take a moment to be   48  . Don’t think about what you have to do, or what you’ve done already.   49  be in the moment.

Then after a minute or two of doing that, consider your life, and how you’d  50  it to be. See your life with less moveanent, less doing, less rushing. See it with more stillness, more consideration, more  51  .

Then be that vision.

It’s prerty simple: all you have to do is sit still for a little bit each day.   52  you’re gotten used to that, try doing less each day. Breathe when you feel yourself moving too  53  . slow down. Be present. Find happiness now, in this moment, instead of   54  for it.

Last night was the last game for my eight-year-old son's soccer team. It was the final quarter. The score was two to one, my son's team in the lead. Parents surrounded the playground, offering encouragement.

With less than ten seconds remaining, the ball suddenly rolled in front of my son's teammate, Mickey O’ Donnel. With shouts of "Kick it!" echoing(回响)across the playground, Mickey turned around and gave it everything he had. All around me the crowd erupted(爆发). O'Donnel had scored!

Then there was silence. Mickey had scored all right, but in the wrong goal, ending the game in a tie. For a moment there was a total hush. You see, Mickey has Down syndrome (唐氏综合症) and for him there is no such thing as a wrong goal. All goals were celebrated by a joyous hug from Mickey. He had even been known to hug the opposing players when they scored.

The silence was finally broken when Mickey, his face filled with joy, hugged my son tightly and shouted, "I scored! I scored. Everybody won! Everybody won!" For a moment I held my breath, not sure how my son would react. I need not have worried. I watched, through tears, as my son threw up his hand in the classic high-five(致礼)salute and started chanting, "Way to go Mickey! Way to go Mickey!" Within moments both teams surrounded Mickey, joining in the chant and congratulating him on his goal. Mike happily and everyone sent their wishes to him.

Later that night, when my daughter asked who had won, I smiled as I replied, "It was a tie. Everybody won."

Here are two letters in WORKWORRIES, a column(栏) in a newspaper:

Dear Ariel,

       I got a job offer from a high-tech company with a fairly satisfactory paycheck and benefits.Even the work environment is cool.But I heard that the job requires a lot of overtime and even weekends.I know it's important for newcomers to work hard to get their feet planted firmly on the ground, but I'm scared of the idea of having nearly no free time.I still need to find a girlfriend.So, shall I accept the job or give it up for another one with much less pay and more freedom?

Amoretto

 
 

Dear Amoretto,

I have two things to say: First, you're lucky to have such an excellent offer, especially at a time when so many qualified(胜任的)people are struggling to find any work at all; and second, you can't figure out your work-life balance until you're actually working.

Take the job.You'll be learning, doing interesting things, working in a cool environment, and making money.If you're given a contract (合同), make sure you understand the terms before you sign.Ask your boss how many hours a week you're expected to work.If they tell you a number that is much lower than what you find once you're working, you'll be in a better position to talk to them about it.

Give your wor k 100 percent.Work energetically and efficiently.If you're dedicated(敬业的)and focused, you might accomplish more than your co-workers in less time.Showing yourself to be a productive and talented worker for the beginning will give you more bargaining power.Finally, remember that taking a job doesn't have to be a life commitment.Try to give it at least a year (two is better).If you're really miserable after that time, look for another job that will give you more freedom.By then, you'll have workplace experience, bosses and colleagues who can speak positively about your work and some savings.Good luck!

Ariel

       A.has been working for a long time               B.is likely a green hand

When asked to point out one or two things that are most important to themselves, many put friends ahead of homes, jobs, cloth and cars.

When you apologize, give your friend a chance to admit that he has been wrong. Third, see things from your friend’s point of view. And finally, accept that friendships change as our needs and lifestyle change. Making friends can sometimes seem easy.

 (安徽省蚌埠市2010届高三第三次质检E篇)

It is common to have difficulties sleeping during the day. Humans are naturally wired to sleep best at night and be awake during the day. However, modern work schedules require some people to try to accommodate the unnatural schedule of shift(轮班)work — being awake at night and sleeping during the day.

In order to make this adjustment, you need to pay special attention to your sleep environment and your preparation for sleep. If shift work is a necessary part of your work life, here are some suggestions that may help.

Arrange to sleep uninterrupted in a quiet, dark room. This means you may have to turn off or unplug your phone, hang darkening curtains on the windows or wear a sleep eye mask, and train your family and friends to leave you alone while you sleep.

Fit in a nap(小睡). When your daytime sleep period is too short, taking a short nap of less than 30 minutes just before work or on a break has been shown to improve alertness and enhance performance.

Develop and follow a sleep routine. It's best if you go to sleep and wake up at the same time every day. Try not to vary this too much on weekends. Your body likes routine.

Take extra care to make healthy choices. You may be tempted to reach for unhealthy foods or nicotine to stay awake or alcohol to try to sleep. But ultimately these choices are more harmful than helpful.

If you have tried all these things and are still having problems getting enough quality sleep during the day, talk to your doctor or a sleep specialist. Sometimes medications(药物治疗)may be helpful and safe. In other cases, there may be an underlying sleep disorder that needs to be addressed.

72.The purpose of the text is to      .

       A.persuade workers to have a god sleep.

       B.advise night workers to keep healthy

       C.encourage workers to do day work

       D.help night workers to sleep well

73.What does the author recomusend?

       A.A suitable account of alcohol to help sleep.

       B.A regular life on weekday’s and weekends.

       C.A dark room without phoebes to sleep in.

       D.A break for sleeping anytime during the day.

74.On which condition should a person turn to a sleep specialist for help?

       A.If he suffers from a sleep disorder for the first time.

       B.If a good sleep environment is greatly needed for him.

       C.If he falls to get quality sleep through his own efforts.

       D.If he has the problem of bailing to sleep in the daytime.

75.We can learn from the test that        .

       A.night workers need a long time to fall asleep

       B.constant breaks at work help to improve performance

       C.it is difficult to create a good sleep environment

       D.night work requires people to adjust their body clocks
