| My students often tell me that they don't 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"not enough time" is not an acceptable explanation of not getting something done. Once in graduate school, I tried to prove to one of my professors by saying that I was working hard. His answer to me was,"That's irrelevant (无关的). What's important is the quality of your work." Since then I have had time to think carefully about the "hard worker" dodge (诀窍), and I have come to some conclusions- all relevant to the problem of how much time we have. If you analyze 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. Then there is the problem of "work" during that time. But, as my professor suggested, it's not how hard one works but the quality of the product that's 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 someone's office: "Don't work harder. Work smarter." There is a lot of sense in that idea. If you can't 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 analysis 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, there are big benefits that pay off in all your studies. |

| New technology that can " see" through clothing and detect what 's underneath can now be used to scan crowds, making it a potentially effective tool to prevent terrorist attacks in public places. The Thru Vision T5000 camera picks up Terahertz rays,or T-rays, which are naturally sent out by all objects and can pass through clothes or even walls. The camera can then detect metallic and nonmetallic objects hidden under clothing on still or moving subjects without showing any body detail. While similar technology is seen at airports around the world, the T5000 is designed to be used in large, open areas. With a range of 25 meters, the T5000 can screen people in public places, thus avoiding bottle-necks at border crossing or security checkpoints. It also means people can be screened without knowing it. The technology develops from British astronomers ' work in studying dying stars. Astronomers use T-ray cameras to see through dust and clouds in space. The company sees uses for its camera at other sites where political or business activities take place. For privacy concerns,Thru Vision Chief Executive Clive Beattie said the image produced by the camera did not show detailed parts of the body." It's almost a shining light bulb (灯泡)." Beattie said. "You don' t see the detail that people might be concerned about." In London' s busy Piccadilly Circus-which is already filled with closed-circuit surveillance (监视) cameras- reaction to the new technology was mixed. Some said the camera was going too far and violating privacy,but others said they are willing to put safety before privacy concerns." There ' s surveillance everywhere anyway," said one commuter. "I don' t think it' s much of a difference. I don' t care that they can see through me because they can see me anyway." Some experts said the privacy violation of the camera was not worth the benefit. " What we should consider is how much we want to lose our privacy in order to obtain a sort of national security," said David Murakami Wood, director of the Surveillance Studies network,which deals with surveillance and privacy problems." In most cases this isn' t real security-it 's a sense of safety that has very little real effect." |
| 1. What can we learn about T5000? |
| A. It can detect metallic and nonmetallic objects underneath. B. It can see through clothing or walls by sending out T-rays. C. It was first used to observe stars by astronomers. D. It is widely used at airports around the world. |
| 2. What is the most probable purpose of the new invention? |
| A. To improve people ' s life standard. B. For scientific research. C. For commercial benefits. D. For safety reasons. |
| 3. Which is most probably the opinion of people on using the new camera? |
| A. Some agree to its use as it is new technology to protect privacy. B. Some agree to its use because safety is the most important. C. Some don' t agree to its use because it makes no difference. D.Some people don' t care because they know little about it. |
| 4. What' s the main idea of the last paragraph? |
| A. Safety is more important than privacy. B. T5000 is more beneficial than harmful. C. T5000 does not really provide security. D. It's not worth giving up privacy for safety. |

| Walking down a path through some woods in Georgia, I saw a small pool of water ahead on the path. I angled my direction to go around it on the part of the path that wasn't covered by water or mud. As I reached the pool, I was suddenly attacked! Yet I did nothing for the attack.It was so unpredictable and from somewhere totally unexpected. I was surprised as well as unhurt though I had been struck four or five times. I backed up a foot and my attacker stopped attacking me. Had I been hurt I wouldn't have found it amusing. And I was laughing.After all, I was being attacked by a butterfly! Having stopped, laughing, I took a step forward. My attacker rushed me again. He charged towards me at full speed, attempting to hurt me but in vain.For a second time, I took a step backwards while my attacker paused. I wasn't sure what to do. After all, it's just not everyday that one is attacked by a butterfly. I stepped back to look the situation over. My attacker moved back to land on the ground. That's when I discovered why my attacker was charging me only moments earlier.He had a mate and she was dying. Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her. I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate. He had taken it up on himself to attack me for his mate's sake (缘故), even though she was clearly dying and I was so large. He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life, should I have been careless enough to step on her. His courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mate's safety seemed admirable. I couldn't do anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the pool. He had truly earned those moments to be with her, undisturbed. Since then, I've always tried to remember the courage of that butterfly whenever I see huge barriers facing me. |
| 1. Why did the writer change his direction while walking down a path? |
| A. To get close to a butterfly. B. To look over the bad situation. C. To escape a sudden attack. D. To avoid getting his shoes dirty. |
| 2. What made the man feel funny? |
| A. Making the attacker pause. B. Being attacked by a butterfly. C. Being stepped on by his mate. D. Discovering the energetic butterfly. |
| 3. From this experience the man learned _____. |
| A. what he should do when faced with trouble B. people should show sympathy to the weak C. how he should deal with attacks D. people should protect butterflies |
| 4. Which of the following words can best describe the butterfly? |

| It doesn't come as a surprise to you to realize that it makes no difference what you read or study if you can't remember it. You just waste your valuable time. 1 One dependable aid that does help you remember what you study is to have a specific purpose or reason for reading. Why does a clerk in a store go away when your reply to her offer to help is, "No, thank you. I'm just looking."? Both you and she know that if you aren't sure what you want, you are not likely to find it. But suppose you say instead, "Yes, thank you.I want a pair of sun glasses." She says,"Right this way, please." 2 If you choose a book, "just looking" for nothing in particular, you are likely to get just that-nothing. But if you do know what you want, you are almost sure to get it.Your reasons will vary; they will include reading or studying"to find out more about", "to understand the reasons for" and"to find out how". 3 Before you start to study, you say to yourself something like this, "I want to know why Stephen Vincent Benet happened to write about America". Because you know why you are reading or studying, you relate the information to your purpose and remember it better. 4 At least two important processes go on at the same time. As you read, you take in ideas rapidly and accurately. But at the same time you express your own ideas to yourself as you react to what you read. You have a kind of mental conversation with the author. This additional process of thinking about what you read includes evaluating it, relating it to what you already know, and using it for your own purposes. 5 One part of critical reading, as you have discovered, is distinguishing between facts and opinions. Facts can be checked by evidence, Opinions are one's own personal reactions.Another part of critical reading is judging sources.Still another part is drawing accurate inferences. |
| A. Maybe you have already discovered some clever ways to keep yourself from forgetting. B. It is important for students to have a positive attitude to their study. C. You remember better when you know what you' re reading. D. In other words, a good reader is a critical reader. E. It's quite the same with your studying. F. Reading is not one single activity. G.This is the way it works. |
