Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying.(72)______ A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you realize what is happening to your time.

Being the head of a high school for many years, I grew tired of budget meetings, funding cuts, and many other administrative chores (雜務(wù)). I started to dream of retirement. Sitting in traffic on a weekday morning, I would find my mind wandering, I would imagine spending time with my grandchildren, quiet evenings with my wife, traveling, or rediscovering some great books. I told myself that I wouldn’t sign myself up for any committees, any classes, or anything requiring a schedule.

My first day of retirement came at last! I cooked a great breakfast for my wife and me, leisurely read the paper, cleaned a bit of the house, and wrote a few letters to friends. On the second day, I cooked breakfast, read the paper … On the third day, … This is retirement? I tried to tell myself that it was just the transition（過(guò)渡）, that those golden moments were right round the corner, and that I would enjoy them soon enough. But something was missing.

    A former colleague asked a favor. A group of students were going to Jamaica to work with children in the poorest neighborhoods. Would I interrupt my new found “happiness” and return to the students, just this once? One trip. That’s all. My bags were packed and by the door.

The trip was very inspiring. I was moved not only by the poverty I saw but also by the sense of responsibility of the young people on the trip. When I returned home, I offered to work one day a week with a local youth organization. The experience was so positive that I was soon volunteering nearly full-time, working with students across North America to assist them in their voluntary work.

Now, it seems, the tables have turned. Some days I am the teacher, other days I am the student. These young people have reawakened my commitment  (責(zé)任感)  to social justice issues by challenging me to learn more about the situation in the world today, where people are still poor and suffer because of greed, corruption and war. Most importantly, they have given me the opportunity to continue to participate in helping to find solutions. In return, I help them do their charitable projects overseas. I’ve gone from running one school to helping oversee the construction of schools in twenty-one countries!

What did the writer expect to do after he retired?

    A. To stay away from busy schedules.       B. To write some great books.

    C. To do some voluntary work.             D. To plan for his future.

Why did the writer decide to go to Jamaica?

    A. He missed his students in that country.    B. He couldn’t refuse his colleague’s favor.

       C. He was concerned about the people there.  D. He was not satisfied with his retired life.

Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?

A. My Retired Life.                     B. Being the Head of a High School.

C. My Attitudes towards Life.             D. An Experience of Being a Volunteer.

What does the writer think of his retired life now?

A. Disappointing.    B. Troublesome.           C. Promising.               D. Meaningful.
