A typical lin tamer (驯兽师) in peple’s mind is an entertainer hlding a whip (鞭子)and a chair .The whip get all f the attentin but it’s mstly fr shw .In reality , it’s the chair that des the imprtant wrk .When a lin tamer hlds a chair in frnt f the lin’s face , the lin tries t fcus n all fur legs f the chair at the same time .With its fcus divided , the lin becmes cnfused and is unsure abut what t d next .When faced with s many ptins , the lin chses t freeze and wait instead f attacking the man hlding the chair.

This upsets me t n end because while all the experts are busy debating abut which ptin is best , the peple wh want t imprve their lives are left cnfused by all f the cnflicting infrmatin .The end result is that we feel like we can’t fcus r that we’re fcused n the wrng things , and s we take less actin , make less prgress , and stay the same when we culd be imprving .
It desn’t have t be that way .Anytime yu find the wrld waving a chair in yur face , remember this :All yu need t d is fcus n ne thing .Yu just need t get started .Starting befre yu feel ready is ne f the habits f successful peple .If yu have smewhere yu want t g , smething yu want t accmplish , smene yu want t becme ….take immediate actin .If yu’re clear abut where yu want t g , the rest f the wrld will either help yu get there r get ut the way .

B. T shw ff his skill .
C. T get ready fr a fight.
D. T entertain the audience.
9. In what sense are peple similar t a lin facing a chair?

D. They have t d smething fr shw.
10. What is the authr’s attitude twards the experts mentined in paragraph 3?
A. Tlerant
B. Dubtful
C. Respectful
D. Supprtive
11. When the wrld is “waving a chair in yur face”, yu’re advised t_____.

Since the first Earth Day in 1970, Americans have gtten a lt “greener” tward the envirnment. “We didn’t knw at that time there even was an envirnment, let alne that there was a prblem with it,” says Bruce Andersn, president f Earth Day USA.
But what began as nthing imprtant in public affairs has grwn int a scial mvement .Business peple plitical leaders, university prfessrs, and especially millins f grass-rts Americans are taking part in the mvement. “The understanding has increased many， many times,” says Gaylrd Nelsn, the frmer gvernr frm Wiscnsin, wh thught up the first.

Althugh serius prblems still remain and need t be dealt with, the wrld is a safer and healthier place. A kind f “Green thinking” has becme part f practices.
Great imprvement has been achieved. In 1988 there were nly 600 recycling prgrams; tday in 1995 there are abut 6,600. Advanced lights, mtrs, and building designs have helped save a lt f energy and therefre prevented pllutin.
Twenty –five years ag, there were hardly any educatin prgrams fr envirnment. Tday, it’s hard t find a public schl, university, r law schl that des nt have such a kind f prgram. “Until we d that, nthing else will change!” says Bruce Andersn.

A typical lin tamer (驯兽师) in peple’s mind is an entertainer hlding a whip (鞭子)and a chair .The whip get all f the attentin but it’s mstly fr shw .In reality , it’s the chair that des the imprtant wrk .When a lin tamer hlds a chair in frnt f the lin’s face , the lin tries t fcus n all fur legs f the chair at the same time .With its fcus divided , the lin becmes cnfused and is unsure abut what t d next .When faced with s many ptins , the lin chses t freeze and wait instead f attacking the man hlding the chair.
Hw ften d yu find yurself in the same psitin as the lin ? Hw ften d yu have smething yu want t achieve (e,g. lse weight , start a business , travel mre ) –nly t end up cnfused by all f the ptins in frnt f yu and never make prgress ?
This upsets me t n end because while all the experts are busy debating abut which ptin is best , the peple wh want t imprve their lives are left cnfused by all f the cnflicting infrmatin .The end result is that we feel like we can’t fcus r that we’re fcused n the wrng things , and s we take less actin , make less prgress , and stay the same when we culd be imprving .
It desn’t have t be that way .Anytime yu find the wrld waving a chair in yur face , remember this :All yu need t d is fcus n ne thing .Yu just need t get started .Starting befre yu feel ready is ne f the habits f successful peple .If yu have smewhere yu want t g , smething yu want t accmplish , smene yu want t becme ….take immediate actin .If yu’re clear abut where yu want t g , the rest f the wrld will either help yu get there r get ut the way .
8. Why des the lin tamer use a chair?
A. T trick the lin.
B. T shw ff his skill .
C. T get ready fr a fight.
D. T entertain the audience.
9. In what sense are peple similar t a lin facing a chair?
A. They feel puzzled ver chices.
B. They hld n t the wrng things.
C. They find it hard t make changes.
D. They have t d smething fr shw.
10. What is the authr’s attitude twards the experts mentined in paragraph 3?

B. Dubtful
C. Respectful
D. Supprtive

Since the first Earth Day in 1970, Americans have gtten a lt “greener” tward the envirnment. “We didn’t knw at that time there even was an envirnment, let alne that there was a prblem with it,” says Bruce Andersn, president f Earth Day USA.
But what began as nthing imprtant in public affairs has grwn int a scial mvement .Business peple plitical leaders, university prfessrs, and especially millins f grass-rts Americans are taking part in the mvement. “The understanding has increased many， many times,” says Gaylrd Nelsn, the frmer gvernr frm Wiscnsin, wh thught up the first. Accrding t US gvernment reprts, emissins (排放)frm cars and trucks have drpped frm 10.3 millin tns a year t 5.5 tns .The number f cities prducing CO beynd the standard has been reduced frm 40 t 9. Althugh serius prblems still remain and need t be dealt with, the wrld is a safer and healthier place. A kind f “Green thinking” has becme part f practices.
Great imprvement has been achieved. In 1988 there were nly 600 recycling prgrams; tday in 1995 there are abut 6,600. Advanced lights, mtrs, and building designs have helped save a lt f energy and therefre prevented pllutin.
Twenty –five years ag, there were hardly any educatin prgrams fr envirnment. Tday, it’s hard t find a public schl, university, r law schl that des nt have such a kind f prgram. “Until we d that, nthing else will change!” says Bruce Andersn.
