Are you simply moving through your day without fully living? I think many of us have done this. Everyone wants to fully live every day. 1. So I’ve decided to share with you some ways to help you enjoy every moment.

Sit in the morning. When you wake up, in the quiet of the morning, sit on the floor. I often use this opportunity to stretch. I feel every muscle in my body. 2.

3. I like to take breaks from work, and go outside for a slow walk. Pay attention to your breathing, to everything around you, to the sounds and light of objects.

Read in silence. Find a quiet time and a quiet place, and read a good novel. Have no television or computers on nearby. 4. It might seem difficult to let your mind move from the present into the time of novel, but it’s a great patience in focus. Also, I love a good novel more than almost anything else.

Look at someone in a grateful way. 5. If you want, you can tell that person how thankful you are to him.

A. Walk slowly.

B. Work with force.

C. But this is easier said than done.

D. And just put yourself in the world of the novel.

E. It’s a way of building something good into your life.

F. I also just sit, and focus on my breathing going in and out.

G. Find someone you care about and be grateful for his existence.

When Nancy Flexer opened the door to her classroom near the end of her final school year, all 41 years of her career as a beloved first-grade teacher came to life right in front of her.

Cole Elementary School in Tennessee surprised Flexer with a memorable and emotional retirement party featuring former students of all ages, dating back to the first class she taught in the 1973-74 school year. A video of the event shows an overwhelmed Flexer being moved to tears as she hears former students who are now adults tell her how much she affected their lives.

"I'm one of the luckiest people in this world," Flexer said. "I remember I opened the door to the classroom thinking no one was in there, and it was wall-to-wall people and banners and everything. It was the coolest thing that could've ever happened in my life. How many times do we really realize the lives we've touched, the manner in which we've touched them, and that these are memories that stay with them for life?"

Despite being young when they were taught by Flexer, students easily recalled the heartwarming notes she wrote them on report cards, the ways she helped them overcome shyness and awkwardness, and how she inspired them to future academic success to earn scholarships and advanced degrees.

Even though Flexer hadn't seen some of the former students for decades, she instantly remembered the names of every single one there.

A scrapbook(剪貼簿) of her career was presented to her as one student after another recalled the effect Flexer had on his or her life.

“I’ve had many opportunities to move to a school closer to my home, but I said ‘Cole gave me so much in my life that when I retire, I will retire from Cole school and give back what’s been given to me.” Flexer said. “My career could’ve taken me nowhere that would have made me happier. I think of it as a blessing.”

1.We learn from the text that the retirement party__________.

A. was beyond Flexer’s expectations

B. attracted many of Flexer’s friends

C. was full of appreciative parents

D. was organized by Flexer’s students

2.Flexer’s former students ___________.

A. helped her overcome her shyness

B. presented her with cards

C. held a party to express their happiness

D. bore her help and inspiration in mind

3.What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. Flexer missed many chances of further studies

B. Flexer once studied in Cole Elementary School

C. Flexer loved her teaching career in Cole

D. Flexer refused many other school’s invitations

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A. An interesting party

B. A teacher’s 41-year teaching career

C. Students’ memories of their beloved teacher

D. Students fro 41 years surprise their beloved teacher

科目:高中英語 來源:山東省臨沂市2016-2017學年高二下學期期末考試英語試卷 題型:閱讀理解

Meet the amazing Eliot Schrefer, and see why we’re big fans!

Scope: Why do you write stories about animals?

Eliot: I’ve always been excited by animal stories. When I was young, I liked reading about animals because they seemed like they needed help, and they were also voiceless.

Scope: Where did you get the idea for Animal Distress Calls?

Eliot: Many years ago, I had a friend who worked as a doctor at the Bronx Zoo. One evening he invited me to see the zoo after hours. Wandering that still, dark zoo was haunting. I was imagining adventures with big wild animals, but only the wolves were awake. Then he took me into the clinic, where I met a sick bird. That nighttime visit clearly had a big impact on this story.

Scope: Why did you leave Josie’s fate ambiguous in the story Animal Distress Calls?

Eliot: So many of us have known a creature, human or nonhuman, who’s been suffering. Sometimes everything gets better, and sometimes it doesn’t. That doesn’t change the important, compassionate act of caring. I didn’t want the story to become about the outcome of Josie’s illness. I wanted it to be about the sympathy Josie and Julia share for each other.

Scope: Have you had a personal experience with an animal that changed you?

Eliot: I had a moment during research for my ape novels when I was staying at a bonobo sanctuary in Congo. I’d have breakfast with Oshwe, a young bonobo who was too little to eat with the rest of the group. Sitting with him for a few hours each morning, I helped make sure that he finished his meal and got the nutrition he needed---but it also felt like a gift he was giving me. Oh, I remember thinking, you’re spending this precious morning time with me!

1.What is Eliot Schrefer famous for according to the text?

A. Being an animal doctor B. His special bond with animals

C. His amazing animal stories D. Being a volunteer taking care of animals

2.What was Eliot Schrefer surprised by while visiting the Bronx Zoo?

A. The quiet atmosphere B. The active wolves

C. His friend’s behavior D. The violent wild animals

3.Why did Eliot Schrefer leave Josie’s fate ambiguous?

A. Because he thought it was not important

B. Because he wanted readers to make a guess

C. Because he wanted to attract readers’ attention

D. Because he would make it clear in his next story

4.What was Eliot Schrefer’s attitude towards Oshwe?

A. Proud B. Frightened

C. Disappointed D. Appreciative
