23、olding a whip(鞭) and a chair.The whip gets all of the attention，but its mostly for show.In reality，its the chair that does the important work.When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lions face，the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time.With its focus divided，the l
24、ion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next.When faced with so many options，the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g.lose w
25、eight，start a business，travel more ) only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress? This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best，the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the c

30、 _Await for a better chanceBbreak your old habitsCmake a quick decisionDask for clear guidanceCWindbreaks are barriers (屏障) formed by trees and other plants.Farmers plant these barriers around their fields，which help prevent the loss of soil and stop the wind from blowing soil away.They also keep th
31、e wind from damaging or destroying crops.Besides，extra trees and plants can be cut down and used or sold for wood.Windbreaks can be highly valuable for protecting grain crops.For example，in parts of West Africa grain harvests were twenty percent higher in fields protected by windbreaks compared to f
32、ields without them.But here is something interesting about windbreaks.They seem to work best when they allow some wind to pass through the barrier of trees or plants around a field.If not，then the movement of air close to the ground will lift the soil.Then the soil will be blown away.For this reason
33、，a windbreak works best if it contains only 60 to 80 percent of the trees and plants that would be needed to make a solid line.An easy rule to remember is that windbreaks can protect areas up to 10 times the height of the tallest trees in the windbreak.There should be at least two lines in each wind
34、break.One line should be large trees.The second line，right next to it，can be shorter trees or other plants with leaves.Locally grown trees and plants are considered the best choices for windbreaks.Trees reduce the damaging effects of wind and rain.Their roots help protect soil from being washed away
35、.And trees can provide animals outdoors with shade from the sun.43The advantages of building a windbreak are as follows EXCEPT _Akeeping the wind from destroying grain cropsBincreasing the production of grain harvestsCproviding humans with shade from the sunDreducing the damaging effects of wind and

37、 are _A100 square feetB150 square feetC240 square feet D300 square feet46What can be inferred from the text?AExtra trees and plants can be cut down for wood.BThe environment is going from bad to worse.CTrees and plants from abroad are the best for windbreaks.DWindbreaks can contribute to agriculture
38、 harvests.DFor the last couple of weeks，I had been stuck in front of my computer working on a project that was very important to me.My every waking hour was consumed by the project and although I imagined that I would feel happy after completing parts of the project，I was confused to find that inste
39、ad，I was feeling rather depressed.I tried a range of methods to help cheer myself up.I had a relaxing bath，cooked a delicious meal to enjoy with my family and even watched a lighthearted movie，but to_no_availIt was only when I turned to meditation (沉思) for a solution that the answer came to me: turn
40、 to nature!The very next day，I grabbed my camera and a bottle of water and set off to spend a few hours walking in a nature reserve，even though it was raining heavily.Within a couple of minutes I felt alive again.To be honest，I felt like a young school girl again and had to stop myself from hopping
41、along the path singing，“Im singing in the rain”，a song I used to sing when I was a child.I think as adults we often try too hard to control our inner children and as a result we restrain (限制) our own spirits，which only leads to depression and stress.Interestingly，it has been shown that people who sp
