At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of the
25、m, all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, Ive found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, its the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colorssilver, green
26、, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.Its fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalksBicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just cant provide.Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I de
27、cided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.My first ride home was orderlyTo be safe, I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didnt want to get hit. So I
28、 took the ride carefully.Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time，skill and a little bit of luck.I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hittin
29、g my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.28. According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?ABecause they are traditional and safe.BBecause they are fast and environment fr
30、iendly.CBecause they are colorful and available.DBecause they are convenient and inexpensive.29. The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended _Ato ride it for fun Bto use it for transportCto experience local culture Dto improve his riding skills30. How did the author feel about his street
31、 crossing?A. It was boring B. It was difficult C. It was lively D. It was wonderful31. Which of following best describe the authors biking experience?A. The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.B. The author took great pleasure in biking.C. The author was praised by other bikers.D. The autho
32、r was annoyed by the air while riding.DMy students often tell me that they dont have “enough time” to do all their schoolwork. My reply is often a brief “You have as much time as the president.” I usually carry on a bit about there being twenty-four hours in the day for everyone, and suggest that “n
33、ot enough time” is not an acceptable explanation of not getting something done. Once in graduate school(研究院), I tried to prove to one of my professors by saying that I was working hard. His answer to me was, “Thats irrelevant(不相关的). Whats important is the quality of your work.” Since then I have had
34、 time to think carefully about the “hard worker” dodge (诀窍) , and I have come to some conclusionsall relevant to the problem of how much time we have.If you analyze(分析) the matter, you can identify two parts of the problem: There is, of course, the matter of “time”, which we can think of as fixed. T
35、hen there is the problem of “work” during that time. But, as my professor suggested, its not how hard one works but the quality of the product thats important.That led me to a new idea: the quality of the work. That concept is perhaps best explained by a sign I once saw on the wall in someones offic
36、e: “Dont work harder. Work smarter.” There is a lot of sense in that idea. If you cant get more time, and few of us can, the only solution is to improve the quality of the work. That means thinking of ways to get more out of the same time than we might otherwise get. That should lead us to an analys
37、is of our work habits. Since “work” for students usually means “homework”, the expression “work habits” should be read as “study habits”. Then, as a smart student, you will seek to improve those skills that you use in study, chiefly reading and writing. If you learn to read better and write better,
38、there are big benefits that pay off in all your studies.21. From the passage, we know that the author is probably _ .A. a novelist B. a poet C. an educator D. an engineer22. We can infer from the second paragraph that we students still _ .A. can meet the president B. have enough timeC. can get every
39、thing done well D. should accept the explanation23. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The authors students make good use of their time to do all their homework.B. The author tried to tell the professor that he/she (author) had done a good job.C. Youll try to improve your ski
40、lls in reading and writing if youre a clever student.D. You cant improve the quality of the work if you cant get more time.24. Whats the passage mainly about?A. Dont work harder; work smarter.B. Students dont have enough time.C. No one can get more time.D. Read better and write better.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分
