In the new book The Education of Millionaires,Michael Ellsberg suggests that although“there are many wonderful things you can learn in college,”few of them are applied to real life .So Ellsberg has written the book to tell“the capabilities and attitudes that will get you improved outside the classroom.”
??? I welcome the kind of debate about the value of higher education.It is necessary to remember, however,that Ellsberg also tells how important it is to make money.He mentions a number of college dropouts一such as Bill Gates and Michael Dell一to show how successful they have become without the benefit of a college degree.While Ellsberg stresses the achievements of dropouts,he includes degree holders who have become wealthy and famous.For example,of the current Fortune 500 CEOs,some 99%have a college degree.Similarly,of the Forbes 400 richest people in America,81%hold postseconda.ry(高等)degrees.
??? But in the discussion,what is forgotten about the value is that the purpose of education is not simply to enable one to earn a living but to prepare one for living over the course of life .What is also left out of the debate about higher education is that its purpose is not just to provide a pathway covered with gold for the nation’s elites(精英).If we have the discussion that way,we may look down upon the people who devote themselves to other ordinary jobs that form the basic structures(結(jié)構(gòu))of our society,Though these individuals may not be reaching for the kind of stars that Michael Ellsberg and others would have them grasp,most are doing something even more important:they are involved in the useful tasks of good citizens and contributing to the common welfare,including providing for their families.
1.In the book The Education of Millionaires,Michael Ellsberg___.
A.approves of the value of education
B.explains the reasons for dropping out

2.The second paragraph suggests a fact that____
A.the value of higher education is never challenged
B.higher education ensures people making more money

In the Netherlands,cycling isn't seen as eccrfriendly exercise; it's part of everyday life, as it's people's top choice to school and work. There are more bicycles than residents in the Netherlands. In cities like Amsterdam and The Hague, up to 70 percent of all journeys are made by bike.
So how did cycling become such a popular means of transportation in the European country?
In the 1970s, the Dutch government began to improve its cycling infrastructure(基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施)due to both a social movement demanding safer cycling condition for children and the oil crisis in the Middle East, when oil producing countries stopped their exports to Western Europe.
To make cycling safer and more appealing, the Dutch have built the widest cycling net- work in the world. The country has over 40,000 kilometers of bicycle lanes and paths,which are clearly marked. They have smooth surfaces,separate signs and lights for those on two wheels. The lanes are wide enough to allow side-by-side cycling and passing.
In many cities the bike lanes are completely segregated(隔離的)from motorized traffic. And in many traffic situations cyclists are given priority(優(yōu)先權(quán))over drivers. Sometimes, where space is limited and both must share, you can see signs showing an image of a cyclist with a car behind accompanied by the words "Bike Street:Cars are guests".
As young people aren't allowed to drive alone until they are 18,cycling offers Dutch teen- agers an alternative form of freedom. The government also makes cycling training lessons a compulsory part of the Dutch school curriculum(課程).
Bike parking facilities are ubiquitous in the country. Cyclists are accommodated in the way motorists are elsewhere. Take Groningen, a city in the northeastern part of the Netherlands,for example. The city's central train station has underground parking for 10,000 bikes.
1.We can conclude that in the Netherlands cycling is____.
A. regarded as eco-friendly exercise
B. thought of as part of people's life
C. looked on as a way to lose weight
D. considered as a way to entertain
2.What can we learn about the Netherlands from the first paragraph?
A. Most vehicles the Dutch use are buses.
B. The native people cycle the best in the world.
C. Everyone has one bike on average in the Netherlands.
D. The number of bikes is larger than the population there.
3.Which of the following made the government improve the cycling infrastructure?
A. A large number of bikes.
B. Hope for healthy life style.
C. People's preference to bikes.
D. Children's safety demand and lack of oil.
4.The underlined word "ubiquitous" in the last paragraph means“_,,.
A. high quality B. unique C. very common D. special
5.What does the Dutch government do about teenagers cycling?
A. It makes cycling covered by school education.
B. It encourages teenagers to cycle alone.
C. It will watch over teenagers who ride bikes.
D. It suggests teenagers cycling before driving.

Scientists find that hard,working people live longer than average men and women. Career(職業(yè)) women are healthier than housewives.Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than the jobholders.An investigation (調(diào)查) shows that whenever the unemployment rate increases by 1%, the death rate increases by 2%. All this comes down to one point, work is helpful to health.
Why is work good for health?It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness and solitude (孤單).Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead the happiest are those who are busy. Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work people come into contact with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.
Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement.Work makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.
From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study hard and live a happy and healthy life.
