Life’s a long, long journey(旅程)” so we are told, and most of us would not set off on a journey, even a short one, without some idea of where we wanted to go. Yet many people travel on life’s journey with no sense of direction at all.
Setting personal goals can give your life a sense of direction. Goal setting is used by top sports players, successful business people and achievers in all fields. Before you set personal goals, think about what you want to achieve with your life.
Try to set goals in some of the following categories (類別).
Education—Will you achieve the educational goals after finishing high-school? Are you still growing and learning
Family—What kind of relationship do you want with your parents and other family members?
Creative—Do you want to achieve any artistic goals?
Career— What job do you want to take when you grow up? What do you need to make your dream come true?
Public Service—Do you want to make the world a better place?
Physical—Are you fit enough to do the things you want to do?
Pleasure—How do you want to enjoy yourself?
To help make the process (過程) more manageable, divide your goals into smaller tasks. For example, if you want to reach a main goal in five years, set a three-year goal, a one-year goal, a three-month goal and a one-month goal. Then create a daily To-Do List of things that you should do today. When a goal is achieved, take the time to enjoy your success. This helps you build the self-confidence.
Remember, your goals can change as time goes on. But be sure your goals are things you hope to achieve, not what your parents, family or teachers want.

A.have better future

小題3:What’s the best advice to achieve the main goal?
A.building the self-confidence.
B.creating a daily To-Do list of things.
C.dividing your goals into smaller tasks
D.setting the time to achieve the main goal

Do you remember the name of your kindergarten(幼兒園) teacher? I do. Her name was Mrs White.
I don’t remember much about     we learned in her class, but my mother once told me that we    write a lot. And I would bring back what I wrote and she could see there were so many mistakes.    no red corrections. And always a star. Sometimes even a Good! It worried my mother, so one day she went to    Mrs White and asked her why she     corrected my mistakes.
And my mother says Mrs White said “The children are just     to get excited about using words, about forming sentences. I don’t want to lose the interests with red ink(墨水).     and grammar can wait. The wonder of     won’t... ”.Maybe she didn’t say it exactly like that at that moment. And what my mother gave me was the main idea of what she could remember.
I     now and think Mrs White must have been a rather    teacher. She encouraged joy, wonder and excitement — even if our expression of it was     . Because she believed a bud(花蕾)once nipped(掐斷) never opens.
I used to misspell “beautiful” a lot. Never could quite remember that the e went    the a. It annoyed my teacher in high school very much. If I was going to use the word so often, she considered the    I could do was spell it right. Finally the e’s and a’s were in their right places. Am glad I didn’t wait on them though. Pretty is    to spell but it doesn’t hold as much as you mean sometimes.
And    Mrs White I had no worries about writing what I meant. Because Life isn’t Pretty. It’s Baeutiful.

For a long time, humans have used technology (科技) to study the world around us, and Mars is the latest place we’re using machines to explore. Besides the earth, the “red planet” is seen, as the one place in our solar system most likely to have life.
Early last month, the first American robot, Spirit, landed on Mars without any problem. Opportunity, the second robot, landed on the planet more than a week ago. Scientists are very excited about these machines’ safe landing on Mars. It means that now we have an excellent chance to look for water and other signs of life. So far, the robots have found some stones that could show Mars was once a wet and warm planet.
But the trips made by Spirit and Opportunity were dangerous. Mars is often called the “death planet”, because in the past its environment has been unfriendly to the robot explorers. Before Spirit and Opportunity, nearly forty spaceships had been sent to Mars since the 1960s. Two-thirds of them failed. The first spaceship, Korabl, sent in 1962 by Russia was among them. It broke apart (分裂) near the earth.
