2．As a young girl growing up in France，Sarah Toumi dreamed of becoming a leader who could make the world a better place.Her passion to help others was awakened when，from the age of nine，she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays.There she organized homework clubs and activities for children.
Toumi witnessed first-hand the destructive effect of desertification"Within 10 years rich farmers became worse off，and in 10 years from now they will be poor wanted to stop the Sahara Desert in its tracks."A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts（干旱）have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia's agricultural lands being threatened by desertification.
Toumi recognized that farming practices needed to change she is confident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers are able to adapt by planting sustainable crops，using new technologies for water treatment and focusing on natural products and fertilizers（肥料） rather than chemicals.
In 2012，Toumi consolidated her dream to fight the desert.She moved to Tunisia，and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action，"I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water."
By September 2016，more than 130，000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms，with farmers recording a 60 percent survival rate.Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia's farmland.She expects to plant 1 million trees by 2018.In the next couple of years，Toumi hopes to extend the programme to Algeria and Morocco.

D．They destroyed her dream of being a teacher.

3．As one of the biggest topics of the last decade，sustainability has become the beacon（ 燈 塔）of hope to protect the planet.From supermarkets taking action on plastic packaging to the zero waste movement that can be practised from your kitchen，changes made by individuals and organizations across the globe have had an impact on the way we think，shop and live.
So what does that mean for the world of technology？You'd be forgiven for thinking that the words "sustainable" and "technology" don't usually go hand in hand.E-waste is，after all，one of the planet's biggest contributing waste streams.Not only that，but the materials that go into technology products are also part of the problem.
But with a challenge comes an opportunity，and there's already some brilliant progress happening — great news for those of us wanting to be more sustainable with our technology.Firstly renewed products are having its moment.While consumers would previously turn their noses up at the idea of a second-hand device，there's been a huge surge in demand for renewed technology products.The second major step in tackling the problem of e-waste is a change in attitudes from owning a product to subscribing for one.A subscription for a smartphone might sound like a foreign concept，but it's already gaining momentum.At the forefront of this movement is a London-based technology startup，which offers a subscription service for the latest smartphones.As customers aren't paying to own the phone at the end of their contract，the monthly price is significantly lower than average.
Studies show that extending a phone's lifespan from one to four years can decrease its environmental impact by about 40%.So the next time it comes to refreshing your device — whether a smartphone，a laptop，a tablet or something else——consider the more environmentally friendly options that are at your fingertips.
（1）What's the purpose of paragraph 1？
A．To change the way we think，shop and live.
B．To introduce the topic of sustainability in technology.
C．To tell us what people have done to protect the planet.
D．To call on people to do something for the environment.
（2）What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about？
A．High-tech products are in short supply.
B．E-waste contributes to the biggest waste streams.
C．The two sustainability problems in technology.
D．Ignoring sustainable technology is unforgivable.
（3）What is present consumers' attitude towards a second-hand device？
A．Supportive.
B．Unacceptable.
C．Sympathy.
D．Doubtful.
（4）How can we become sustainable in technology according to the text？
A．By upgrading the old one.
B．By subscribing for a smartphone.
C．By spending less money on a smartphone.
D．By replacing the old one with the latest one.組卷：8引用：4難度：0.6 -
4．Many people believe that working to the maximum is the secret to success，but research has found that moderation （適度） also gets results on the job.
In a study led by Ellen Langer of Harvard University，researchers asked people to translate sentences into a new made-up language.Subjects who practiced the language moderately beforehand made fewer errors than those who practiced extensively or not at all.High levels of knowledge can make people too attached to traditional ways of viewing problems across fields — the arts，sciences，and politics.High conscientiousness is related to lower job performance，especially in simple jobs where it doesn't pay to be a perfectionist.
How long we stay on the clock and how we spend that time are under careful examination in many workplaces.The young banker who eats lunch at his desk is probably seen as a go-getter，while his colleagues who chat over a relaxed conference-room meal get dirty looks from the corner office. "People from cultures that value relationships more than ours does are shocked by the thought of eating alone in front of a computer"，says Art Markman，a professor of psychology at the University of Texas，Austin.Social interaction has been shown to lift mood （情緒） and get people thinking in new directions and in ways that could help improve any post-lunch effort.
Markman also promotes off-task time. "Part of being a good thinker is experiencing things that are seemingly unrelated to what you are working on at the moment but give you fresh ideas about your work，" he says. "Also，there is a lot of research showing that a positive mood leads to higher levels of productivity and creativity.So，when people do things to increase their life satisfaction，they also make themselves more effective at work."
（1）What does Ellen Langer's study show？
A．It is worthwhile to be a perfectionist.
B．Translation makes people knowledgeable.
C．Simpler jobs require greater caution.
D．Moderate effort produces the best result.
（2）The underlined word "go-getter" in paragraph 3 refers to someone who.
A．is good at handling pressure
B．works hard to become successful
C．has a natural talent for his job
D．gets on well with his co-workers
（3）What can be inferred from the last paragraph？
A．A good thinker is able to inspire other people.
B．Experience unrelated to your job is useless.
C．A cheerful mood helps make a creative mind.
D．Focusing on what you do raises productivity.
（4）What does the text seem to advocate？
A．Middle-of-the-road work habits.
B．Balance between work and family.
C．Long-standing cultural traditions.
D．Harmony in the work environment.組卷：128引用：9難度：0.5

Have you ever complained that there just aren't enough hours in a day？Do you usually find yourself falling short on time in completing assigned tasks？（1）No matter how hard I tried，tasks just kept piling up towards the end every day and it became extremely difficult to stay productive.In spite of trying all kinds of free and paid to-do apps，nothing helped.
That didn't change until I discovered the time management technique called Time Blocking.Since then，I have been able to transform my daily schedule for the better with the help of Time Blocking. （2）
It is a simple time management technique where you schedule your day such that it is divided into time blocks that are dedicated to specific tasks or groups of tasks. （3）Imagine that you have a dozen or so tasks that you want to finish working on tomorrow.You open your to-do app of choice and neatly list down everything that you plan to do，and then plot some important meetings and reminders in your calendar app.（4）The more specific you are about the task，the more focused and productive you will be and thus，more productive.
（5）It not only makes your to-do list more manageable，but also it gives you more control over your day and helps you prioritize your tasks.It also improves your focus and helps get rid of procrastination（拖延癥），as it allows you to focus on one project at a time.
A.So what is it exactly？
B.Is everyone interested in it？
C.I used to be in the same boat.
D.The benefits of Time Blocking are considerable.
E.Let's further explain the concept in another way.
F.You'll encounter countless questions like these in your life.
G.You'll need to be very specific about the time and what you're planning to do.組卷：87引用：7難度：0.5
