He was friendly and was eager to help us.At first he thought we didnt have enough money to buy gas，so he offered to buy us gas at the next town Roswell that was about 10 miles away!When we explained our predicament of not having enough gas to get to Roswell，he said his farm was about 10 minutes away and they had a gas pump there，so if we could give him 20 minutes，he would head back there，get a can of gas and fill up our tank for us.We could not believe our good fortune！There not being any cell phone reception for either of us in the area，we had just hoped that whoever stopped to help would be kind enough to call AAA when they got to Roswell and we would just wait it out for them to help us.We were filled with gratefulness for the kindness of strangers such as this person as we waited for him to return.Sure enough，he was back with the can and quickly filled our tank.He refused to take payment for the gas.Tears flowed，as did our endless appreciation.【文章大意】這是一篇英語故事。作者一家人去旅行的過程中汽車汽油不夠用了，遇到了一位好心人，他幫他們加了油且沒收費，這讓作者一家人非常感動。讓愛永駐心間，讓世界充滿愛。1What is the authors final destination?ARoswell.BDallas.

During his freshman year summer vacation，his classmate got him a job working on a hay(干草) farm.He threw hay up into wagons as the tractor drove around fields，and then they stacked (剁起) it in the hot barn.It was a hot，lowpaying job. He once worked a few nights a week at a grocery store.He put things on the shelf.It was a lot of lifting and carrying，and his arms were strong from this and the previous job.It was dull and didnt pay much. He took some time off when soccer got serious，but the following summer he tried working at a lumber yard.It was hot outside，but he got a lot of exercise lifting and carrying things like boards and drywall.He also learned a lot about building supplies.It still didnt pay well.From there，he spent a year doing some tutoring for a friend of the family，but that was piecemeal.His first real job came the last year at school，when he fixed registers and worked on computers at a big box store.It was his favorite job yet，but it still didnt pay well. What Peter realized with all of these jobs was that he needed a better paying job！The only way to get that was to get trained or educated.He could go to school and get a 2year degree in an office or technical position.His other choices were going to a 4year college or joining the army.He wasnt sure what he was going to do yet，but he knew he had to do something.Jobs were a lot of work，money was hard to earn，but he liked staying busy and being able to buy things.Peter wanted the most out of life，and that meant education.【文章大意】本文是一篇記敘文。一個名叫Peter的高中生想要買好看的衣服、出去閑逛、開車，而這一切都需要錢。于是他就想自己掙錢來滿足這些需求。然而打了五份工之后，他依然收入微薄。最后，他終于意識到要想找到一份好的工作，唯一的途徑就是接受培訓(xùn)或接受教育，所以他現(xiàn)在必須好好學(xué)習(xí)。5How many jobs had Peter taken?AThree.BFour.CFive.

Here，I will share some personal steps taken to overcome procrastination with great success.Break your work down into little parts.Part of the reason why we procrastinate is that we find the work too overwhelming(巨大的) for us.Break it down into little parts，and then focus on one part at a time.If you still procrastinate after doing so，break it down even further.2. Change your environment.Look at your work desk and your room.Do they make you want to work or do they make you sleepy？3. Create a detailed timeline with specific deadlines.Having just one deadline for your work is like an invitation to procrastinate.Thats because we would get the impression that we have time and keep pushing everything back until its too late.4. In this way，you know you have to finish each task by a certain date.5 Im pretty sure if you spend just 10 minutes talking to people like Steve Jobs or Bill Gates，youll be more inspired to act than if you spend the 10 minutes doing nothing.The people we are with influence our behavior.ASeek out someone who has already achieved the similar outcome to your goals.BHang out with people who inspire you to take action.CHaving a companion makes the whole process much more fun.DIf its the latter，you should begin to change your workspace.EIts a bad habit eating us away and stopping us achieving greater success in life.FBreak down your project，and then create an overall timeline with specific deadlines for each small task.GSoon，your task will be so simple that you will be thinking you can do it now.答案：15.EGDFB
