1. Choose the best answer.

    Making full use of time is important in our daily life. Maybe there are not enough hours in the day to accomplish all you need to do. Here are some opinions that might help you.

    ⒈Set up a plan. Go for a week at a time, Pay attention to the important things. Take the most important ones first, including things you want to accomplish.

    ⒉Control your stress(压力). If any stress happens to you, try to keep cool. Stressing out can lead to an early breakdown, which is bad for you when you have a lot of things to do. It's more relaxing to take a 30-minute walk and cool off than work all week with stress.

    ⒊Shut your door. Do your important tasks with your door shut, This will make sure you have high efficiency(效率).

    ⒋Pay attention to one thing at a time. If you do many things at a time, it will take you longer time to accomplish what you want to do.

    ⒌Just say "no". If other people often ask you for help,and you really don't have the time to help out, just say" no". You can't save the whole world.

    ⒍Stop wasting time on the phone. While talking on the phone, keep your talk short and to the point. Thus, you will waste much less time.

    ⒎Finally, be realistic (现实). You can only do what you can do. Don't set out to accomplish the impossible.

3. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)

    Samuel Langhorne Clemens was born in 1835,in the state of Missouri. When he was four, his family moved to the town ofHannibal, Missouri. Hannibal was a port on the Missippi River, and Clemensloved to watch the big steamboats going up and down the river. He said that allthe boys in his school had one ambition in life: to work on a steamboat!

    His father died when he was just 12 yearsold, and Clemens then went to work for a printer to help support his family. Hetravelled around, and worked in many different cities. But when he was 22, heachieved his ambition—he got a job working on a steamboat. He sailed up anddown the wide Missippi River until the American Civil War began.

    He then moved around America, and triedseveral jobs. He was a soldier, and a silver miner. Then he started working asa writer for a newspaper. It was at that time that he decided to use a pen namefor his stories, and he chose the name "Mark Twain".

    The name is interesting. It comes from hisdays on the steamboats. He used to throw a piece of rope into the river. Therewas a heavy weight on the end of the rope, and the rope had some marks on it.He used the rope to find how deep the river was. Then he shouted out, "MarkOne" or "Mark Twain", meaning "Mark Two". Each markwas about two metres, so when he shouted "Mark Twain", it meant thatthe river was deep enough for the big boat.

    In 1865 Clemens wrote a story about ajumping frog. The story and the writer became famous. In 1867 he toured Europe.He married when he returned, and lived for most of the rest of his in Harfort,Connecticut. He wrote many books, including The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, whichhe wrote in 1876. He also gave many lectures, and became a very famous andpopular man.

    Once two of his friends decided to write tohim, but they had lost his address. So on the envelope they just wrote "MarkTwain, God knows where". Several weeks later, they received a replay fromthe writer. It just said, "He does!"

    Samuel Clemens died in 1910. He isconsidered to be one of America's most important writers.
