“ Down-to-earth” means someone or something that is honest, practical and easy to deal with．It is  36  to find someone who is down-to-earth．A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to  37  accepts other people as equals．A down-to-earth is just the 38 of someone who acts importantly and proudly.
Down-to-earth persons may be  39  members of society, of course．But they do not let their importance “ go to their  40 ”．They do not  41  themselves to be better persons than others of less importance, someone who is filled with his own importance and  42 , often without cause, is said to have “his nose in the air”．There is no way a person with his nose in the  43 can be down-to-earth．Americans use another expression that means almost the same  44  “down-to-earth”．The expression is “both-feet-on-the-ground”．Someone with both-feet-on-the-ground is a person  45  a good understanding of reality．He has what is called “   46  sense”．He may have  47  , but he does not allow them to  48  his knowledge of what is real．The opposite kind of person is  49  who has his “head-in-the-clouds”．A man with his head in the clouds is a dreamer whose mind is not in the  50  world.
Sometimes  51  a dreamer can be brought back to earth． 52  words from a teacher can usually bring a day-dreaming student down-to-earth.
Usually, the person who is down-to-earth is very  53  to have both-feet-on-the-ground.

Volunteering can help you deal with stress and problems, have more confidence, and introduce you to exciting new ideas and people. But what kind of volunteering should you do?
Firstly, think about what you enjoy. What are you interested in? What do you want to be when you grow up? For example, if you love animals, you can volunteer to care for abandoned(被遺棄的) pets or injured wildlife. If you want to grow up to be a doctor or a nurse, you can look for a youth volunteer program at a local hospital.
Secondly, think about what you’re good at. What skills do you have? What kinds of jobs do you do best? Try to find a volunteer position that will let you make the most of your strengths and talents. For example, if you’re a great speaker, then you could try educating others about a problem you care about. If you’re a cook, you might find a way to help feed hungry people in your area.
Thirdly, look for what your own community needs. What should be improved in your town, city, or school? What types of volunteer projects would do the most good? For example, if there are a lot of homeless people in your area, you could raise money to help them. If your town has empty areas filled with dirt or rubbish, you could organize or join a group to plant trees and flowers to make these areas more attractive.
The problems of the world, or even just of your community, might seem gigantic. Some people might even feel like there’s no point trying to do anything, since what they can contribute seems so small. But every person is important, and can do some good and make a difference. Like you!
小題1:What is the text mainly about?
A．How to be a good volunteer.

D．How to improve society by volunteering.
小題2:The text does NOT mention _____ as a basis for volunteering. 
A．interestsB．a(chǎn)bilitiesC．people’s needsD．what one gets in return

A．Through reasoning.B．Through similarities.

       It takes courage to stand up at work．Now more and more people are standing up when they are working on something important．Standing up is in fashion．Medical researchers have found that people who stand at work tend to be much healthier than those who sit．But I wasn't just looking for better health — standing would also improve how I work and relax my body．
In recent years, many office supply companies have begun to sell adjustable desks．These so-called "sit / stand" models are equipped with an electric motor that lets them shift from chair height to person height at the push of a button．Unfortunately, sit / stand desks tend to be expensive, hard to find and not very easy to test in person．
I discovered that when I worked standing up, my mind was clearer and new ideas kept coming to me．I suspect that this is because when you're standing, you feel a bit unchained from your desk．If I got stuck on a word or sentence as I wrote it, I found myself shaking my arms, bouncing （跳） on my feet or stepping away from the desk for a bit — things I couldn't do in a chair．Often, standing up seemed to relax my mind enough for me to get over creative barriers．
There's another thing about standing for a long time: I tend to get hungrier than I do when I sit on a chair．That feels like confirmation（證實） of the stand-up advocates’ belief that you burn more calories when you stand than when you sit．For this reason alone, I' m hoping that one day mass-market furniture companies can make many low-priced versions of sit / stand desks．We could all work with a bit more standing up．
小題1:The author likes standing up while working because __________．
A．he wants to show that he has a lot of courage
B．researchers say standing makes one healthier
C．he intends to catch up the fashion trend
D．he hopes to improve his work and relax himself
小題2:It can be inferred from the text that   ________．
A．a(chǎn)djustable desks are mass-produced now
B．a(chǎn)djustable desks are easy to operate
C．cheaper adjustable desks will soon be available
D．a(chǎn)djustable desks can be tried out easily
小題3:What is the main idea of the text?
A．Standing up at work is a better choice．
B．Standing up at work takes courage．
C．Standing up at work burns more calories．
D．Standing up at work will replace traditional sitting．

I stepped into my hotel room to a pleasant surprise. Lots of room surrounded an inviting king-size bed, with armchairs nearby resting against sliding glass doors that opened onto a private yard. A small dining table sat next to a kitchen with a refrigerator and coffee machine. "Wow," I thought to myself. "Nice place."
I love hotels. I love to enter a clean room, hang my clothes and gaze out the window, walk out in the morning and when I return, someone else will have made the bed. I like in-room dining and the way they greet you so professionally. "Nice to have you with us again, Mr. Goldsborough." Very cool.
The problem is that unless Alison travels with me, I never sleep well in hotels. I miss my family, even though Linus and Camille, at ages 4 and almost 2, find a way to interrupt even the best night's sleep at home.
I'm deeply troubled by the number of parents who wake up too late with the realization:
"My children grew up too fast. In the busy career and corporate rat race（劇烈競爭）, I missed their childhood.” What they fail to say but too often think causes me even more pain: "...and I barely even know them."
A hundred years from now, no one will remember the size of your bank account, the car you drove or the size of your house. The world might differ greatly however, based on your impact in the life of a small child. If you pay attention to your significant others, make the choice to put them first.
Think of one specific action that you can take, and take it. Then think of another one and take that, too. Challenge yourself to find new ways to express your appreciation and love on a daily basis. It will pay off ten-fold（十倍）at home.

The world has changed and being intelligent isn’t normally equal to being a successful person. Look at the example of the blue whale : it has a huge brain, but it still doesn’t know how to avoid whalers or use its large size and weight to deal with those who try to use their body for profit. Scientists hold an opinion that the blue whale just likes some highly intelligent people who fail to succeed. Those highly intelligent people can’t succeed in life because they can’t communicate well with the world around them.
Intelligence is a word in life that makes you think you are better than others. Intelligence can blind these very people from how others view them. These people also think that the route to power and success results purely from intelligence and they sometimes live in a fantasy world that they create by their supposed brain power.
This is a distance that develops whether or not they realize it and sometimes, a person can be disliked simply because of his or her intelligence. This distance is sometimes so far apart that it gets to the position where they can’t listen to each other. One side thinks the other is stupid and the other thinks he/she is haughty（傲慢的）. And most of the time it is the intelligent people who lose themselves in this situation. They become unpopular with most of the people around them. This affects them in whatever they do and sooner or later they will lose their confidence.
It doesn’t help that they get a culture shock - especially when they leave college and realize success and richness don’t always and sometimes never come naturally with intelligence. While some might think this is a dramatic picture to paint, it is sometimes the end result of some people.
小題1: The example of “the blue whale” is used to show ____.
A．communication is more important than intelligence
B．human beings are always more intelligent than animals
C．humans should have the sense of protecting animals
D．the blue whale is the largest animal in the world
小題2: Those supposed intelligent people often believe that ____.
A．they should make their life the same with others
B．they should live in a better world than the others
C．they are sure to be successful because of their intelligence
D．other people’s opinion should be seriously considered
小題3: What makes the intelligent people lose their confidence?
A．They become separated from other people and lose their support.
B．They often can’t get higher positions though they are intelligent.
C．They can’t persuade those stupid people to accept their ideas.
D．They often can’t make good use of their advantages.
小題4: We can infer that the end result of the supposed intelligent people would be ____.
A．great achievements B．more efforts
C．failure in the futureD．proper changes

Allan goes everywhere with Birgitta Anderson, a 54-year-old secretary. He moves around her office at work and goes shopping with her. ‘Most people don't seem to mind Allan,’ says Birgitta, who thinks he is wonderful. 'He's my fourth child,' she says. She may think of him and treat him that way, buying his food, paying his health bills and his taxes, but in fact Allan is a dog. Birgitta and Allan live in Sweden, a country where everyone is expected to lead an orderly life according to rules laid down by the government, which also provides （提供）a high level of care for its people. This level of care costs money. People in Sweden pay taxes on everything, so aren't surprised to find that owning a dog means yet more taxes. Some people are paying as much as 500 Swedish kronor in taxes a year for the right to keep their dog, money that is spent by the government on dog hospitals and sometimes medical treatment for a dog that falls ill. However, most such treatment is expensive, so owners often decide to pay health and even life insurance （保險）for their dog. In Sweden dog owners must pay for any damage （損壞）their dog does. A Swedish Kennel Club official explains what this means: if your dog runs out on the road and gets hit by a passing car you, as the owner, have to pay for any damage done to the car, even if your dog has been killed in the accident.
小題1: Birgitta pays taxes for Allan because         .
A．he is her dogB．he is her childC．he follows her everywhereD．he often falls ill
