Several years ago, a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America. One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies in the world and the third owned many buildings in the centre of New York. The reporter was talking to them about being important.
“How do we know if someone is really important?” The reporter asked the banker.
The banker thought for a few moments and then said, “I think anybody who is invited to the White House to meet the President of the United States is really important.”
The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. “Do you agree with that?” She asked.
The man shook his head, “No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You’d only be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the President of another country, and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it.”
The reporter then turned to the third man, “Do you think so?”
“No, I don’t,” he said. “I don’t think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important. “
“Then what would make the visitor important?” The reporter and the other two men asked.
“Oh, I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang, and the President picked up the receiver, listened and then said, “It is for you.”

No doubt there are ups and downs in life. Whatever the situation is, you shouldn’t lose your joy of life. Life is for a limited period only and no one knows how long he/she will live, so why do you waste your precious time in worrying about the things that are beyond your control? Be happy, and enjoy your life unconditionally (无条件地).
You enjoy good days but you also need to learn how to enjoy bad days, even enjoy your pain. In 2016 when I was in Geneva, Switzerland, I suffered a sudden heart attack. My colleagues called an ambulance and I was taken to hospital with much pain in my chest. Before reaching hospital, I was totally exhausted with pain and was going to lose control of my emotions. Then the doctor in the ambulance said, “Don’t worry; you are in safe hands.” His words took away all my pain because I started realizing that it was no time to worry about pain and it’s time to be happy that my life was safe. At that time, I learnt an important lesson that in pain there is a hidden joy and whoever sees the bright side can enjoy pain. My pain turned into a joy which greatly helped me recover more quickly than expected.
You not only enjoy success but you also need to learn to enjoy failure. Failure provides you with an opportunity to benefit from so many choices you’ve made. Celebrating failure will raise your morale and make you more powerful and determined to achieve success. We all make mistakes in life but only the courageous (勇敢的) people not only laugh at their own mistakes but also let other people laugh at them and then they reach success without any spiritual burden (负担). A person who learns from mistakes and knows how to turn the bad situation into his/her favor is the most intelligent person and really enjoys his/her life.
【1】What does the author mainly tell us in the first paragraph?
A.Life is full of ups and downs. B.People’s lives only last a limited period.
C.We should enjoy our life unconditionally. D.Bad situations can be changed into good ones.
【2】Why did the author still feel happy when experiencing much pain?
A.His colleagues were always with him.
B.He could be looked after by his parents.
C.He planned to enjoy the last days in life.
D.His doctor made him realize the value of being alive.
【3】The underlined word “morale” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “________”.
A.talent B.confidence
C.pleasure D.inspiration
【4】The author thinks that the wisest person________.
A.never laughs at others B.has strong determination
C.is ready to do others a favor D.is good at learning from mistakes

Several years ago climate change was a controversial subject with many people insisting it didn’t exist. Today, few people doubt that the climate is changing in uncomfortable and dangerous ways.
For me, living on an island off the west coast of Canada, climate change didn't directly affect me. That changed this summer. There are always a few wildfires in the forests of Canada in summer but this year has been exceptionally bad as we’ve had, for practical purposes, no rain at all. Then the fires started and many families have lost their homes to the flames. In early August we woke up one day to a heavy smoke from the mainland. It was dark for several days. By September, again the sun has been blocked by smoke, this time from Washington and Oregon in the United States. The smoke has covered us for about a week.
In the more than twenty years we’ve never before had this happen. Now we’ve been blanketed by smoke twice in one summer. The change in our climate is clear and it doesn’t bode (预兆) well. Already our seaside town is putting regulations in place and making plans to deal with a rise in sea level. However, if the sea level comes up more than a few meters we could have big problems.
I don’t pretend to understand all the causes of climate change or the best ways of fixing it if, indeed, it can be fixed. It is, however, becoming increasingly noticeable. Last night we were supposed to be able to see the Northern Lights but the smoke prevented that. But there’s some good news. I have just noticed that for the first time in months it is raining.
【1】When did the author begin to be affected by climate change?
A.After the smoky days. B.In August this summer.
C.On arriving at the island. D.When the first fire broke out.
【2】What did the seaside town do with climate change?
A.It found the causes. B.It solved the problems.
C.It made a prediction. D.It took some measures.
【3】What’s the good news the author mentioned in the last paragraph?
A.The coming of the rain. B.Seeing the Northern Lights.
C.The best way to fix the weather. D.The appearance of heavy smoke.
【4】What is the best title for the passage?
A.Causes of Climate Change B.Climate Change Hits Home
C.Global Warming Is Less Serious D.Ways to Deal with the Rising Sea Level

Since you're stuck at home and spring is approaching, now's the time to get busy with gardening and other household projects.【1】
Whatever you do, aim for a minimum of 150 minutes of exercise (such as walking, biking and swimming) each week.【2】
At home or anywhere else,you have the basics for building muscle (肌肉):gravity and your body weight. From push-ups to planks, squats to sit-ups, and leg extensions to lunges, you can target all the major muscles of your arms, legs, chest, shoulders and the muscles of your belly, back, and pelvis (盆骨)using nothing more than your weight as resistance.
But, to increase the intensity (强度)of your strength training, add some resistance.【3】 For example, you might purchase a set of dumbbells, barbells, or kettlebells in varying weights for home use. Or, as a more affordable and (literally) flexible option, you can buy a set of flexible resistance bands with varying tension levels for about$25. 【4】 And they allow you to modify (修改)your workout simply by changing your movements and/or increasing the resistance by shortening or lengthening the band.
【5】 Do at least two to three sets of 12 to 15 repetitions of each resistance exercise on two to three days a week. Wait two to three minutes between sets, and give each muscle group 48 hours between training periods to recover.
A.Whatever you choose, try to do like this.
B.All of these can keep you physically active.
C.You don't need expensive weight machines.
D.Here are ways to stay active and fit at home.
E.The bands are highly portable, practical, and adaptable.
F.Or you can do 75 minutes of activity (e.g., running, jogging, and walking on hills) weekly.
G.Wash your hands, and wipe off any barbells, resistance bands, or other home exercise equipment.
