Although the amputation caused inconvenience for Gallagher early on, she now sees it as nothing short of inspiration for living her best life.To spread that message. Gallagher has gone to social

21、 media, where she shares photos of her travels across the world, but instead of simply using a geo-tag(地理位置标签), she writes her location on her artificial leg before taking a picture.Now she has been taking pictures across the Continent, which show her cycling over the canal in Amsterdam relaxing on

22、a wall overlooking the city of Barcelona, posing with a waffle in Brussels, taking in the beautiful Parthenon temple in Athens and enjoying a river ride in Budapest, all with the well-known locations written on her artificial leg.“I get a new leg every two years and I can choose the design on it. On

23、e day I had a sudden thought to get a chalk-board,” Gallagher said. “My mum and grandmother didnt like the idea, but my friends thought it was great and told me to go for it, so I did.”Gallagher said people often stare when shes writing on her leg, but once she shares the photos, she receives only p

24、ositive feedback(反馈), “My leg hasnt stopped me from doing anything Ive wanted to do,” she said. “I dont know if its my determination to prove to myself that I can do it, anyway, Ive been able to keep up with people at my age and lead a pretty great life.”Gallagher shows us that you should never let

29、consumption to about 20 percent.With a large population, China is facing increasing resource limits, severe environmental pollution and a worsening ecosystem, and its citizens are also becoming increasingly aware of environmental problems. Suffering environmental problems and seeing the efforts as i

30、mportant to transforming its economic growth pattern, the country has much at risk if climate change is left unattended.Actually, climate change efforts are already included in Chinas medium-and long-term program of economic and social development, and ecological efforts are the clear characteristic

31、s in Chinas 13th Five-Year Plan(2016-2020).Although it is and will be a developing country for a long time to come, China has been actively involved in the global campaign against climate change, now topping the world in terms of energy conservation and use of new and renewable energies.However, Chi

32、nas development rights need to be respected.

33、er person are far lower than those of developed countries, especially the United States, although rapid economic expansion and its population base have made it one of the biggest producers of the gases.To show its great resolve, Beijing in September also announced the establishment of an independent

38、s for how we feel: “He makes me so mad! or “She really hurt my feelings. But did someone really make me angry or are we felling the anger in us getting kicked up in response to the way someone behaved towards us?The difference between the two is in who the responsible party is for the way we feel. I

39、f we blame others for our feelings we will eventually feel reasonable at whatever our retaliation(报复)may be,and we will explain that it was their fault,not ours. They were driving me mad”.When we blame others for the way we feel we have in fact given power to others for the state of our emotional we

40、llbeing(健康). The truth is,no one controls our feelings but us. If we are finding that people in our lives really know how to push our buttons then we are not doing a good enough job at protecting our buttons. We are the ones leaving our buttons out in the open so that other people can push them. Ult

41、imately,the switch for our buttons is inside us-not on the outside.While there are some things in life that are clearly out of our control,like the weather or a flight thats two hours late,how we act and respond to other peoples behavior is not among them. Our responses to others are well within our

42、 control.If someone is making us so mad,for example,that we get angry,we are not doing enough to learn about what drives our anger and how to properly cope with it. My suggestion is taking time before you get angry. and putting some work into taking an inventory(清单)of the past. An inventory can show

43、 you how much of your past experiences influence your feeling reactions in the current moment.When we finally realize that so much of our present feelings and reactions are driven from within ourselves and our own past experiences,we will be ready to make the changes in our lives that will better se

45、ing themselves mad.33.According to the author, which can always be under our control?A.The weather conditions.B.The delay of a flightC.Other peoples feelings.D.Our own behavior.34What does the underlined phrase push our buttons probably mean in Paragraph3?A.Force us to do a god job.B.Make us angry.C

46、.Take off our buttons.D.Let us down.35Which proverb best suits the authors advice in Paragraph 5?A.A burden of ones choice is not felt.B.A friend is easier lost than found.C.Think twice before acting.D.A good beginning is half done.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。The Wa
