Paage

I worked as a manager in a company for a number of years.I liked my job, and was doing well there, but our company was bought by a larger company and most of the managers at our place lost their jobs.That was when I decided to do something I\'d always wanted to do – become a freelance (自由撰稿的) writer.Changing profeions (职业) has meant that my lifestyle has changed in a number of ways.

The main difference for me now is that I have a much more flexible (灵活的) schedule.I work about as much as I did before – between 45 and 50 hours a week – but my schedule is much le rigid than it used to be.Before, I worked from 8 to 5 every day, with a few extra hours on weekends.Now, however, I work when I feel like it.For instance, sometimes I work until midnight or 2 A.M., then sleep until noon.I really prefer this kind of schedule.It seems more natural to me.

I also decided that it was about time I began to pay more attention to my health.While I was working as a manager, I never exercised.I already felt tired after work, so I just came home in the evening and watched TV.However, last year I joined a health club and began to do regular exercise.As a result I have lost over 10 pounds and I feel much better.I\'ve also started to eat more healthfully.I used to eat a lot of fast food, but now I do my own shopping.I buy lots of fruits and vegetables and cook them at home.

Of course, not all the changes have been that easy.For example, I don\'t feel as secure financially as I used to.When I was working as a manager, I never worried much about money.I could always count on getting my paycheck every two weeks.Working freelance, I don\'t have a regular paycheck.So now I have to make sure there\'s enough money until the next check arrives.

All in all, I really like my current lifestyle.Of course, that doesn\'t mean I\'ll never want to have a \"regular\" job.But for now, at least, it suits me.

11.At the end of the paage, the author indicates that _____.

A. he is going to find a regular job soon B. he is not going to change his lifestyle in the near future

A. He wants to lose weight. B. He has got lots of free time on his hands.

C. He no longer feels tired after work. D. He wants to eat more healthfully.正确答案：D 14.What is the main difference the job change brought to the author?

A. He works fewer hours a week. B. He does not have to work on weekends. C. He can change his schedule as he likes. D. He can work at night and sleep late.正确答案：C 15.Why did the author decide to become a freelance writer? A. He had always liked writing. B. He was diatisfied with his company

C. He never liked his job as a manager. D. He wanted to change his lifestyle.正确答案：A Paage

About 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning.The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university.These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts (B A) or Bachelor of Science (B S) degree.Some students attend a junior college (providing only a two-year program) for one or two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级学生) or junior (三年级学生).

.It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one.Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average (GPA), as well as specific college prep claes in high school.Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive.

During Paleolithic times man became man by learning to speak, to make tools and to use fire.This gave him an enormous advantage over other animals about him.Yet in one fundamental respect he remained alike to them.He was still a hunter among other hunters.He was still a food gatherer as were countle other species that were completely dependent on the bounty of nature.And being dependent on the nature, he was dominated by nature.He had to be constantly on the move in order to follow animals and to locate fishing grounds.He had to live in small groups because not many could find enough food to support themselves in a given area if he lived alone.It is estimated that even in fertile areas with a mild winter, only one or two food collectors could support themselves per square mile.And twenty or even thirty square miles were needed for each human soul in regions of cold climate, tropical jungle or desert.Such dependence on nature left its mark on all aspects of human society.But this dependence was greatly reduced when man made the epochal discovery that he could feed himself by growing his food as well as by gathering it.In doing so a new world with a bright future opened before him, as he left behind him the Paleolithic stage of his development and entered the Neolithic. 21.Which of the following statements is true according to the paage?
