19、e westB.in the eastC.in the northD.in the southBWhy is setting goals important? Because goals can help you do, be, and experience everything you want in life. Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen. Successful people imagine how their life should be and
20、set lots of goals. By setting goals you are taking control of your life. Its like having a map to show you where you want to go. Think of it this way. There are two drivers. One has a destination in mind (her goal) which can be found on a map. She can drive straight there without any wasted time or
21、wrong turns. The other driver has no goal or destination or map. She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but she drives aimlessly around, never getting anywhere, just using up gas. Which driver do you want to be? Winners in life set foals and follow through on them.
22、They decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident. Goals arent difficult to set-and they arent difficult to reach. Its up to you to find out what your goals really are. You are the one who must decide what to
23、 achieve and in what direction to aim your life.Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it. Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power. Like a contract with yourself, they are harder to neglect or forget. Also when you write your goals in a pa
24、rticular way, you are able to make yourself continuously aware of situations that will bring you nearer to your goals.1The article is written to throw light on _.

But a new studyin Friday s edition of the journal Science found a drought - r
35、elated decline in such plant growthfrom 2000 to 2009，even though temperatures continued to climb.As drought caused by warming reduces the land s ability to take in carbon，the result couldbe more carbon dioxide left in the atmosphere，and thus more warming，Zhao Maosheng from theUniversity of Montana e
36、xplained in a telephone interview.“This is a pretty serious warning that warmer temperatures are not going to endlessly improveplant growth ” co - author Steven Running，also from the University of Montana said in astatement. “ We see this as a bit of a surprise，and potentially significant on a polic

Fill in the numbered bla
43、nks by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.A Low-Carbon Economy (LCE) refers to an economy which has a minimal emission of (GHG), namely, carbon dioxide into the biosphere(生物圈). Recently, sts and the public hold the opinion that the climate is changing b
44、ecause there is such an accumulation of CO2 in the atmosphere due to human activities. The over-concentration of these gases is producing that affects long-term climate, with negative impacts on humanity in the foreseeable future. LCE, therefore, is proposed as a means to avoid catastrophic climate
45、change.All nations which are considered societies and societies which are heavily populated should become zero-carbon societies and economies. Several of these countries have promised to become low carbon but not entirely zero carbon, and claim that emissions will be cut by 100% by balancing emissio
46、ns rather than ceasing all emissions.Nuclear power and the strategies of (CCS) have been proposed as the primary means to achieve a LCE while continuing to exploit non-renewable resources. Scientists are afraid, however, whether the spent-nuclear-fuel can be stored, and whether it is secure. Also th
47、ey are not certain about the costs and time needed to successfully implement CCS worldwide and whether the stored emissions will leak into the biosphere or not. Alternatively, many have proposed should be the main basis of a LCE, but, they have their associated problems of high-cost and inefficiency
48、; this is changing, however, since investment and production have been growing significantly in recent times. Furthermore, it has been proposed that to make the transition to an LCE economically attractive we would have to attach a cost (per unit output) to GHGs through means such as emissions tradi
49、ng and/or a .A LCE is aimed to integrate all aspects of itself from its manufacturing, agriculture, transportation to power-generation around technologies that produce energy and materials with little GHG emission and thus around populations, buildings, machines and devices which use those energies
50、and materials efficiently and dispose of or recycle its wastes so as to have a minimal output of GHGs. Title: 11 I. 2 : an economy with a minimal output of GHGII. 3 of the present economy: global warming long-term climate change 4 on humanity III. 5 : to produce energy and materials with little GHG

54、lf people smoking in China. Even though smoking is very bad, the number of smokers keeps growing, and the average age of the smokers is getting younger. Even some students smoke, too. Why do so many people smoke today? Because some people think smoking is a kind of fashion or something interesting. Most people are so busy with their work that they smoke to fresh themselves; however, I dont think smoking is good. If you smoke too much, you will get diseases. It also costs a lot of money. In order to keep healthy, we should not smoke.
