Time is the easiest thing in the world to waste―the most difficult to control. When you look ahead, it may appear you have  36  you need. Yet it has a way of slipping  37  your fingers like quicksand.  You may suddenly find that there is no way to stretch the little time you have  38   to cover all your obligations. For example,   39   a beginning student looking ahead to a full term you may feel that you have an oversupply of time on your hands.

40  toward the end of the term you may be   41   because you are running out of time. How can you do? ―Control!

Time is   42   . If you don't control it, it will control you. If you don't make it work for you, it will   43   you. You must become the master of time, not the servant. “Study hard and play hard” is an old saying, but it still   44  . You have plenty of time for classes, study, work, and play if you use your time   45  . It is not how much time you allocate (分配)for study that counts  46  how much you learn when you do study.

     Too much wasted time is   47   medicine. The more time you waste, the easier it is to continue wasting time. Soon, doing nothing becomes a habit you can't   48  . You will be __49  to wasting time. When this happens, you  50  your feeling of accomplishment and you fall by the wayside. A full schedule is a good schedule. Some students   51   to hear the time message. They refuse to   52   the fact that college life demands some  53   of time control. There is no escape. So what's the next step? If you seriously want to get the time message, the next passage will give it to you.  54   ― it will not only improve your grades but also free you to   55  college life more.

If you walk slowly through downtown Helsinki during the day, taking in the splendid 19 th century buildings, white boats and noise of passing trams (有軌電車), you will start to understand why it is called a city of two colors: white and blue.

The sea is always present in Helsinki. When you take a walk over the great open space of the central square, you will hear seabirds screaming. When you take the tram, suddenly and unexpectedly, you are faced with a calm, shining blue sea. You may notice that people in Helsinki do not rush about as in other cities. Instead, they walk along the roads, politely letting other people by.

A usual way to see Helsinki for the first time is to start out by the boats. You will walk by the elderly women selling fish and vegetables in the market square and find yourself in front of a beautiful park. You may enjoy a pleasant walk in the park for a few hours and then take the tram. Trams are the perfect way to get around in Helsinki. Watching the old houses, parks, theatres, churches, shops, restaurants and people in the streets, you may have a slightly sad film feeling to it.

The pale summer nights are another wonder in the city. Following the waterfront（濱水區(qū)）of the city after sunset, you couldn’t help stopping and listening to the sweet silence, interrupted only by the screaming seabirds and leaving fishing boats.

However, in some way. Helsinki is also the most modern city in northern Europe. You will surely want to visit the white Glass Palace, the modern art museum, and all those extremely popular cafes and design stores.

Helsinki is called a city of two colors mainly because of the colors of its ________.

      A．19th century white buildings and boats

       B．19th century buildings and passing trams

      C．white roads and blue trams

      D．old buildings, boats and the sea

The best way to see most of Helsinki is to go ________.

      A．by boat    B．by bus     C．by tram    D．on foot

The 19th century buildings, the white Glass Palace and all those popular cafes and design shops show that Helsinki is _________.

      A．both western and eastern        B．both quiet and noisy

      C．both historical and modern     D．both old and new

This passage is most likely to be found in _________.

      A．a(chǎn) story-book          B．a(chǎn) geography textbook

      C．a(chǎn) research report    D．a(chǎn) travel magazine
