1.Life can be so wonderful,full of adventure and joy.It can also be full of challenges,setbacks and heartbreaks.Whatever our circumstances,we generally still have dreams,hopes and desires-that little something more we want for ourselves and our loved ones.Yet knowing we can have more can also create a problem,because when we go to change the way we do things,up come the old patterns and pitfalls  that stopped us from seeking what we wanted in the first place.
This tension between what we feel we can have and"what we're seemingly able to have is the niggling suffering,the anxiety we feel.This is where we usually think it's easier to just give up.But we're never meant to let go of the part of us that knows we can have more.The intelligence behind that knowing is us-the real us.It's the part that believes in life and its possibilities.If you drop that,you begin to feel a little"dead"inside because you're dropping"you".
So,if we have this capability but somehow life seems to keep us stuck,how do we break these patterns?
Decide on a new course and make one decision at a time.This is good advice for a new adventure or just getting through today's challenges.
While,deep down,we know we can do it,our mind-or the minds of those close to us-usually says we can't.
That isn't a reason to stop,it's just the mind,that little man or woman on your shoulder,trying to talk you out of something again.It has done it many times before.It's all about starting simple and doing it now.
Decide and act before overthinking.When you do this you may feel a little,or large,release from the jail of your mind and you'll be on your way.
 
68.It can be inferred from the first two paragraphs that we shouldC.
A.slow down and live a simple life
B.be careful when we choose to change
C.stick to our dreams under any circumstances
D.be content with what we already have
69.What is the key to breaking the old patterns?B.
A.To focus on every detail.
B.To decide and take immediate action.
C.To listen to those close to us.
D.To think twice before we act.
70.Which of the following best explains the underlined part in the last paragraph?C.
A.Escape from your punishment.
B.Realization of your dreams.
C.Freedom from your tension.
D.Reduction of your expectations.
71.What does the author intend to tell us?A.
A.It's easier than we think to get what we want.
B.It's important to learn to accept sufferings in life.
C.It's impractical to change our way of thinking.
D.It's harder than we expect to follow a new course.

12.Mark and his brother Jason both were looking at the shining new computer enviously.Jason was determined not to go against their father's wishes but Mark was more adventurous than his brother.He loved experimenting and his aim was to become a scientist like his father.
"Dad will be really mad if he finds out you've been playing with his new computer."Jason said,"He told us not to touch it."
"He won't find out."Mark said,"I'll just have a quick look and shut it down."
Mark had been scolded before for touching his father's equipment.But his curiosity was difficult to control and this new computer really puzzled him.
It was a strange-looking machine-one his dad had brought home from the laboratory where he worked."It's an experimental model,"his father had explained,"so don't touch it under any circumstances."But his father's warning only served to make Mark more curious.Without any further thought,Mark turned on the power switch.The computer burst into life and seconds later,the screen turned into colors,shifting and changing and then two big white words appeared in the center of the screen:"SPACE TRANSPORTER."
"Yes!"Mark cried excitedly,"It's a computer game.I knew it!Dad's only been pretending to work.He's really been playing games instead."A new message appeared on the screen:
"ENTER NAMES

VOYAGER 2:…"
Mark's fingers flew across the keyboard as he typed in both of their names.
"INPUT ACCEPTED.START TRANSPORT PROGRAM.AUTO-RETRIEVE INITIATED(自動(dòng)回收程序已啟動(dòng))."
The screen turned even brighter and a noise suddenly rose in volume.
"I think we'd better shut it off,Mark,"Jason yelled,reaching for the power switch.He was really frightened.
But his hand never reached the switch.A single beam of dazzling white light burst out of the computer screen,wrapping the boys in its glow (光芒),until they themselves seemed to be glowing.Then it died down just as suddenly as it had burst into life.And the boys were no longer there.On the screen,the letters changed.
"TRANSPORT SUCCESSFUL.DESTINATION(目的地):MARS.RETRIEVE DATE:2025."

As I sat in my own personal heaven,I started thinking about having more.That's when a fantastic life-changing idea popped into head:If I could get more money,I could buy more books l liked,buy anything I wanted.That's how it all started.
