1、阅读下面短文。
Have you ever made a promise to yourself that you didn’t keep? 1.Usually, when the New Year begins, we make resolutions like studying harder or learning to play the guitar. Sadly not long after that, we often end up breaking them. But what if we want to develop a new good habit?
A habit is something we do almost without realizing it. It’s just like having breakfast or saying “Thank you”, which most of us do every day.
2. 极据一项研究, 培养一个新习惯通常需要66天。This is possible. However, willpower (意志力) might not be the only thing you need. The reason for developing the habit is important.
The problem is, your feelings may influence your willpower. For example, a bad feeling may mean you don’t want to do anything.
3.这研究也表明你不应该一次改变太多。 Remember that it’s a case of baby steps. Giving up all your favorite foods, doing morning exercise and going to bed early at the same time will probably result in failure.
4. Finally, if you feel uncomfortable when doing something, then stop doing it.
It might not be quick to develop a new habit. But if you follow the advice, you may succeed. 5.So be patient and believe that you can make change for the better.

25、 Good evening everyone,
When the AFI(American Film Institute) asked me to speak tonight, I said of course. But as George knows, I’ve actually being quite nervous about it. I do so out of immense pride in all that he has achieved. I knew there would be lots of people who could speak to George’s talent. So I thought I should say a few words about his character in real life and why he deserves to be admired.
First he is a gentleman. He is a gentleman in every sense of the word and in a way that seems so uncommonness these days and perhaps even outdated. Everyone who knows him will tell you that he has not forgotten his Kentucky manners that developed in his childhood. Once someone told me when filming “confessions” in Montreal(蒙特利尔), George refused to wear a warm winter jacket unless everyone got the same one even though it was 40 degrees below zero.
Second, George is brave enough to expose corruption in Sudan(苏丹), being the first one to be against the War in Iraq(伊拉克). Recently he worked for gun control movement as soon as The Parkland School Shooting happened in America.
Although George modestly says much of the success we are celebrating here tonight comes from good luck, I think it’s his great talent and character that got him here which also make him an amazing husband and father. Our house will always being filled with warmth and laughter so long as George stays at home.
I’m so proud of you, my love. Congratulations on this great honor that you’re receiving tonight. I’m proud of you but I also know that when our children find out not only what you have done but who you are, they will be so proud of you too.

D.He was against the War in Iraq.
【3】What does the underlined word “outdated” most probably mean in Chinese?

26、Don’t Judge a Book by Its Cover
Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve loved reading crime and detective (侦探) novels, so I guess it was pretty normal that I started writing them when I was older.
However, my family is very big on having a traditional career (职业) and so when I said that I wanted to go to college and study writing, my parents told me that I couldn’t. They told me that I had to study for a degree so that I would achieve a career, and not something as risky as writing.
I suppose I could have studied journalism (新闻) ,but I didn’t want to lose interest in writing because it would be something I would do every day for work, not for pleasure.
I thought that teaching looked like a pretty good compromise (妥协 ) , especially because of the long holidays.
It was a good choice: by the time I was twenty-five,I’d already finished two novels and had an agent.To be honest, I never meant to keep my being a crime writer a secret or anything, and my friends have always known. One of the reasons most people don’t know is because my agent told me that my name Hazel sounded too much like a romance (浪漫) novelist for older women. She suggested Brooke Lane and I thought, “Well, if you think it’ll make me successful, okay,”
I’d totally forgotten about it until I walked into school one day and saw one of my workmates reading my novel. I asked her some questions about it, and it was so clear that she had no idea that I’d written it - she even offered to lend it to me after she’d finished!
Of course, sometimes I wonder what my students would think if they knew that their teacher was going home on the weekend to write about murders and dead bodies, but I think my parents probably did me a favor: my teaching job keeps me in touch with the real world.
【1】Hazel is probably .
A.an agent B.a journalist C.a teacher and artist D.a teacher and writer
【2】The underlined words “is very big on ” in the passage most probably mean .
A.to give no advice B.to like something very much
C.to have more experiences D.to misunderstand something
【3】It’s clear that Hazel .
A.agreed to study journalism for a degree
B.accepted Brooke Lane as her pen name
C.would like to write something for teaching
D.told her workmates about her writing novels
【4】We can infer from the passage that .
A.Hazel likes showing off in public
B.Hazel’s students all want to write novels
C.Hazel’s agent has played a role in her success
D.older women prefer the name Brooke to Hazel
27、Four years ago when I was a boy of 11, I got into the biggest trouble as a kid. It was a Saturday morning. Both my parents were out, leaving me and my 10—month—old sister became alone. Anyway, my sister was still asleep in her room. In fact I had the house to myself. I decided to do some drawing. Soon I gave up. Nothing was on TV, so I felt bored and touched the candles on the shelf…I had an idea! What would happen if I set fire to some kitchen paper? Well, of course it went on fire, but it wasn’t the tiny flame(火箭)I’d expected, and I couldn’t blow it out. I threw it on the floor, and then luckily got my dad’s boots(靴子)and stamped it out.
I thought I was safe until there was a HCGE hole in my room. When my mum came home later, she smelt the smoke immediately. She dropped the shopping bag, luckily for me, over the hole. I thought this meant she would never see it. However, after running round the house checking for a fire, she of course picked up the bag and saw the hole.
