How often do you let other people’s nonsense change your mood? Do you let a bad driver, impolite waiter, rude boss, or an insensitive employee       your day?
One day I was in a taxi and we headed       the airport. We were driving in the right lane       suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, slide sideways, and at the very last moment our car stopped and narrowly       the other car by just inches!The driver of the other car looked around and started       at us.
My taxi driver just       and waved at the guy. And I mean he was really      . So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!”This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call “The Law of the Garbage Truck”.
He        that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of      , full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage       up, they need a place to dump (倒) it and sometimes they’ll dump it on      . Don’t take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on.
Believe me. You’ll be more      . Don’t take their garbage and       it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets, Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with      . The mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what’s        in your life. Roy Baumeister, a psychology researcher from Florida State University, found in his extensive research that you        bad things more often than good things in your life. You store the bad memories rather easily, and you       them more frequently.
So...Love the people who treat you right. Ignore the ones who don’t. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you        it!
When you follow “The Law of the Garbage Truck”, you take back control of your life. You make room for the good by        go of the bad. Have a Garbage Free Day!Have a marvelous, garbage-free day!The seeds you plant today       the harvest you reap tomorrow.

Computer programmer David Jones earns £35,000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank ready to let him have a credit card(信用卡). Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18. The 16yearold works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. David' s firm releases(推出) two new games for the fast growing computer market each month.
But David's biggest headache is what to do with his money. Even though he earns a lot, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage(抵押贷款),or get credit cards. David got his job with the Liverpoolbased company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six Olevels and working for a time in a computer shop.“I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs,”he said. David spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother 50 pounds a week. But most of his spare time is spent working.
“Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school,”he said.“But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway.”David added:“I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement(退休) is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.”

Because of the financial crisis in the US and UK, college students are beginning to struggle to find ways to pay their tuition fees and accommodations.

Recently, two major US student loan lenders—Citibank and JPMorgan Chase—announced they were leaving the student loan industry altogether. Because banks currently have a lack of credit(存款额), they are reluctant to offer students lowinterest loans(贷款) that need a severalyear wait for any return of interest.
In the US, many undergraduates top up their financial needs with a private loan, although the majority can get governmentfunded loans. In the 20052006 academic year, $17 billion in private student loans was used to finance higher education. The shortfall in private funding has yet to be covered and will hit many US students hard.
Across the Atlantic, UK students have been less troubled by the crisis. Most undergraduates in the UK cover their university expenses with governmentfunded loans and grants(助学金). Their biggest concern is a sudden steep increase in student rent.
Most young professionals now rent houses, since 80 percent of UK mortgage schemes(住房抵押贷款计划) have disappeared—a direct result of the credit crisis. This has boosted the house rent market.
In large cities, UK students are paying almost 6.5 percent more in rent than the previous year. Figures from the UK organization Accommodation for Student show students in big cities such as London paying an average weekly rent of $103.
Yet, despite students' suffering, the number of this year’s university applications is expected to grow. During economic slumps, people regard further education as a way to survive tough job markets.
According to the passage, banks are unwilling to offer students loans because ________.

A.the students are poor and sometimes they can’t pay off the debt
B.banks prefer lending the money to the young professionals
C.banks don’t have enough money left at the present time
D.they think college students are not studying hard

The underlined phrase “top up” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.

A.put up B.make up C.fill up D.pick up

Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A.UK college students have to pay more if they want to rent houses.
B.More UK students want to further their study in college.
C.It is not so easy for US students to loan money now.
D.College students' tuition fees have risen greatly.

It can be inferred that ________.

A.there are no private student loan lenders in the UK
B.loans for US college students will be increased next year
C.private funding falls a little because of higherinterest loans in the US
D.private loans play a very important role in financing US students’ education

The passage mainly tells us ________.

A.college students in the US and UK are faced with their financial crisis
B.it is the duty of the governments to solve college students' financial crisis
C.private student loan is a good way for college students to overcome the difficulties
D.further education is a good way for college students to survive tough job markets

How I Turned to Be Optimistic
I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt's house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.
I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.
The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times”.
My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.
From my experiences I have learned one important rule:almost all common troubles eventually go away!Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little!I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.
How did the author get to know America?

A.From her relatives. B.From her mother.
C.From books and pictures. D.From radio programs.

Upon leaving for America the author felt ________.

A.confused B.excited C.worried D.amazed

For the first two years in New York, the author ________.

A.often lost her way B.did not think about her future
C.studied in three different schools D.got on well with her stepfather

Anyone who doubts if children are born with a healthy amount of ambition need spend only a few minutes with a baby eagerly learning to walk. No matter how many times the little ones stumble in their first efforts, most keep on trying, determined to master their amazing new skill. It is only several years later, many psychologists and teachers agree, that a good number of kids seem to lose their natural drive to succeed. For the parents of such kids, whose own ambition is often tied to their children's success, it can be a painful experience.
Figuring out why the fire went out is the first step. Assuming that a kid doesn't suffer from a learning disability, or isn't involved in some family crisis(危机) at home, many educators attribute a sudden lack of motivation to a fear of failure or classmate pressure.“Everything is within the kids' control;their intelligence is changeable,”says Lisa Blackwell, a research scientist at Columbia University. More than any teacher or workshop, Blackwell says,“Parents can play a key role in conveying this message to their children by praising their effort and progress rather than emphasizing their “smartness” or praising high performance alone. Most of all, parents should let their kids know that mistakes are a part of learning.”
Some experts say our education system, with its strong emphasis on testing and separation of students into different levels of ability, also bears blame for the disappearance of drive in some kids.“These programs shut down the motivation of all kids who aren't considered gifted and talented. They destroy their confidence,” says Jeff Howard, a social psychologist. Howard and other educators say it's important to expose kids to a world beyond homework and tests, through volunteer work, sports, hobbies and other extracurricular activities.
“The problem of the issue is that many students experience education as irrelevant to their life goals and ambition,”says Michael Nakkual, a Harvard education professor. The key to getting kids to aim higher at school is to free them of the idea that class work is irrelevant, and to show them how doing well at school can actually help them fulfill their dreams beyond it. They need to understand that you have to learn to walk before you can run.
According to the passage, the parents of kids with no ambition ________.

A.don't do a very good job on teaching them to walk
B.are to blame if the kids do poorly in school
C.feel pain because their own ambition is connected to their kids' success
D.should take part in extracurricular activities with kids

The underlined part “the fire went out” probably means ________.

A.the motivation was suddenly lost
B.the fear of failure was suddenly gone
C.the learning disability was suddenly lost
D.the fire was suddenly gone

All the following can contribute to a sudden lack of ambition EXCEPT ________.

A.learning disability B.classmate pressure
C.emphasis on testing D.extracurricular activities

What is the most important thing for parents in motivating their kids?

A.Punishing kids who don't display ambition.
B.Emphasizing smartness and high performance.
C.Telling kids that mistakes are a part of learning.
D.Praising the effort and progress they have made.
