Do you often tell 23 “I cannot dance” or “Im not good at math”? These are 24 of self limiting beliefs. You must realize youre 25 for them. A l

12、imiting belief that says youre poor at math may have 26 as a reaction to the embarrassing experiences related to math, or the remarks made by someone important to you which 27 you. The cool thing is that because you create the _28_you can choose to change it! Here is how:First, 29 it with “I am good

13、 at math”. Once you change your 30 , your subconsciousness will make this 31 by driving you to act. That might be to take a math course or to go online 32 help, etc. Gradually youll really see your math skills are 33 .This is such a simple process that you can 34 it today.

Apart from a few Indian nove

18、ls and the Australian and South African book, my literature collection consisted of British and American titles. Worse still, I hardly ever read anything in translation. My reading was limited to stories by English-speaking authors.So, at the start of 2012, I set myself the challenge of trying to re

19、ad a book from every country in a year to find out what I was missing. As I was unlikely to find publications from nearly 200 nations on the shelves of my local bookshop, I decided to ask the planets readers for help. I created a blog called A Year of Reading the countries. Others did hours of resea

20、rch on my behalf. In addition, several writers sent me unpublished translations of their novels, giving me a rare opportunity to read works otherwise unavailable to the 62% of the British who only speak English. Even so, selecting books was no easy task. With translations making up only around 4.5 p

21、ercent of literary works published in the UK and Ireland, getting English versions (版本)of stories was difficult.But the effort was worth it. I found I was visiting the mental space of the storytellers. These stories not only opened my mind to the real life in other places, but opened my heart to the

22、 way people there might feel.And that in turn changed my thinking. Through reading the stories shared with me by bookish strangers around the globe, I realised I was not alone, but part of a network that spread all over the planet. 36. Which of the following might be found on the blog A Year of Read

23、ing the World? A. Lists of English version books. B. Research on English literature. C. Unfinished novels by British writers. D. Comments on English literature.37. Why was it hard for the author to select the right books to read? A. The author had a busy schedule. B. The author was only interested i

24、n a few topics.C. The author could only read books written in English.D. Most books recommended are not available in local bookshops.38. The author is probably from_. A. America B. the UK C. Australia D. Canada39. Which of the following words can best describe the authors experience? A. fast and eff

25、ortless B. challenging but rewarding C. hopeless but beneficial D. meaningful but fruitlessBThe Norwegian Government is doing its best to keep the oil industry under control. A new law limits exploration to an area south of the southern end of the long coastline; production limits have been laid dow

26、n (though these have already been raised); and oil companies have not been allowed to employ more than a limited number of foreign workers. But the oil industry has a way of getting over such problems, and few people believe that the Government will be able to hold things back for long. As one Norwe

27、gian politician said last week: “ We will soon be changed beyond all recognition.”Ever since the war, the Government has been carrying out a program of development in the area north of the Arctic Circle. During the past few years this program has had a great deal of success. Tromso has been built up

28、 into a local capital with a university, a large hospital and a healthy industry. But the oil industry has already started to draw people south, and within a few years the whole northern policy could be in ruins.The effects of the oil industry would not be limited to the north, however. With nearly

29、100 percent employment, everyone can see a situation developing in which the service industries and the tourist industry will lose more of their workers to the oil industry. Some smaller industries might even disappear altogether when it becomes cheaper to buy goods from abroad.The real argument ove

30、r oil is its threat to the Norwegian way of life. Farmers and fishermen do not make up most of the population, but they are an important part of it, because Norwegians see in them many of the qualities that they regard with pride as essentially Norwegian. And it is the farmers and the fishermen who

31、are most critical of the oil industry because of the damage that it might cause to the countryside and to the sea.40.
