The clock rules our lives. The more we try to save time, the less time we seem to have. In every area of our lives we are doing things faster. And many of us live in towns and cities which are getting noisier and more stressful as each day passes. But now a worldwide movement, whose aim is to slow life down, has started. Its supporters are people who believe that a happier and healthier way of life is possible.
The Slow Food movement was founded the day that an Italian journalist, Carlo Petrini, saw that McDonald’s had opened a restaurant in a beautiful square in Rome. He thought it was sad that many people today live too quickly to sit down for a proper meal and only eat much fast food. He decided that he had to try to do something about it and so he started the Slow Food movement. Slow Food has become a global organization ever since and now has more than 80,000 members in 100 countries.
Slow Food also encourages people to eat local and regional food, to use local shops and markets, to eat out in small family restaurants, and to cook with traditional recipes.
The idea of Slow Cities was inspired by the Slow Food movement. The aim of Slow Cities is to improve people’s quality of life. Towns which want to become a Slow City have to reduce traffic and noise, increase the number of green areas, plant trees, build pedestrian zones, and promote local businesses and traditions. Now it has spread to other countries all over the world, from the UK to Japan and Australia. There are now 135 Slow Cities in 24 countries across the world that have been named since founding of the organization in 1999. Gao Chun County, in east China’s Jiangsu Province, is expected to be named the first “Slow City” in China next year.
“Slow Cities are about having a community life in the town,” said a local resident. “It is not ‘slow’ as in ‘stupid’. It is ‘slow’ as in the opposite of ‘worried’ and ‘stressful’.”
But not everybody is happy. For teenagers, who have to go 25km to Norwich, the nearest city, to buy CDs, living in a Slow City is not very attractive. “It’s all right here,” says Lewis Cook, 16. “But if you want excitement, you have to go to Norwich. We need more things here for young people.”
【小題1】What’s the aim of the Slow Food movement?

A.To call on people to eat out.
B.To make people enjoy cooking.
C.To drive McDonald’s out of Rome
D.To encourage people to slow down.
【小題2】All the following are necessary to be a Slow City EXCEPT ______.

A.the Slow Food was founded in 1999
B.there is no Slow City in China now
C.Slow Cities are mainly in the UK
D.there are about 24 Slow Cities in the world
【小題4】What’s Lewis Cook’s attitude to living in a Slow City?
A.PositiveB.NeutralC.NegativeD.Indifferent
【小題5】What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Slow down and you’ll move fast
B.Time flies never to be recalled.
C.Eat slowly and you’ll be healthy.

We use the Internet for many things: business, shopping, writing letters, talking to people, finding information and so on. In recent years, a new kind of English has grown on the Internet. There’s no real word for it yet, so we’ll call it e-talk. People don’t like typing too much. To save time, they turn phrases into a few letters (called acronyms). Acronyms are often used in chat rooms(聊天室). Some of them are:
BTW(by the way);  BRB(be right back);  LOL(laughing out loud);  IMO(in my opinion)
People also use many abbreviations. They are shortened forms of words. Some common abbreviations are:
info(information);   puter(computer);    pic(picture);     sec(second)
We ususally don’t see people when we communicate on the Internet, so people have new ways to show feelings. Most people use their keyboards to draw “feelings”, such as:
:-) (happy);     ;-)(joking);        :-((sad);       :-O(surprised)
These days, many forums(論壇)have picture feelings. For example:
           
(happy)              (sad)               (angry)               (cool)
There are even whole new words, like ”newbie’s” (someone who is new on a chat board or forum). When you write something bad about someone else, it’s called “flaming” the person.
It takes time for people to get used to e-talk. Also, different groups on the Net have their own special ways of communicating. Newbie’s sometimes have to ask other people what they mean. As the Internet grows, e-talk will continue to grow and change.
【小題1】Why do people type acronyms?

A.To show their feelings.B.To make jokes.
C.To save time.D.In this way newbie’s won’t understand them.
【小題2】What does “BTW, my computer is not working well, :-( ”mean?
A.The person is happy about getting a new computer.
B.The person has to go away from his/her computer.
C.The person is angry at somebody.
D.The person is sad that his computer is having problems.
【小題3】 If someone is angry, what may he type?
A.B.BRBC.LOLD.
【小題4】E-talk will probably_______.
A.keep changingB.stay the same
C.be used by people on the telephoneD.be easy for newbie’s to understand.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2015屆山西省高二9月月考英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:書面表達(dá)

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填人空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

Ways to save time

We all wish we had just a bit more time.Just think what you could do with an extra hour or two each day: you could finally stick to an exercise routine, or spring-clean the house, or write your novel, or learn the guitar and so on.

1.   But I can help you find more hours in your day for the things that really matter.

         1.Get Out of Bed Earlier

         If you normally get up at 7; 30 a.m.try getting up at 7:00 a.m.That half-hour might not sound like much, but it could be time that you use to exercise, to read that book you've been meaning to finish.2. 

2.Do the Important Tasks First

Once you get to work, get the important ones done first (not the easy ones, or even the urgent ones).You can afford to spend at least an hour working on big, important tasks rather than on all those little urgent ones.

3. The urgent tasks will still get done, and you won't miss the important ones.

3.Reduce Interruptions

If colleagues have a habit of hanging around your desk to chat, or if the phone is constantly ringing, you might find that it takes you half the day to finish a simple task like writing a letter.Constant interruptions don't just eat up time, they also break your concentration.

When you've got a big task to focus on, let your calls go to voicemail.4. Wearing headphones makes it less likely that people will try to strike up a conversation.

         4.  5. 

A few minutes chatting, browsing the web, and so on, can easily turn into hours of wasted time over the course of a day.

When you're working, work.If your concentration is slipping, take a proper break: go and get a glass of water, or stretch your legs a bit.And if you're facing a difficult task, try breaking it into small steps or stages so that it's easier to deal with.

A.Stay Focused on Your Work

B.Take Breaks When Necessary

C.If you have an office door, close it.

D.If you work like this, you'll usually save time.

E.Would you want me to make your day longer?

F.I can't magically make all your days 25 hours long.

G.Or simply to get your day off to a calm and organized start.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2010年天津市高三下學(xué)期第五次月考英語(yǔ) 題型:閱讀理解

(BEIJING, August 10)—The Beijing Daily has put together a number of tips for cost-efficient travel in Beijing.

★  Subway transfer

“Transfer” is a word frequently used by volunteers helping visitors choose the best way of transport during the ongoing Beijing Olympics to save time.

On the seven subway lines now in operation, the transport authorities have set up a total of 16 transfer stations:

Transfer between Line 2 and Line 1 at Jianguomen and Fuxingmen stations;

Transfer between Line 2 and Line 5 at Chongwenmen and Yonghegong stations;

Transfer between Line 2 and Line 13 at Dongzhimen and Xizhimen stations; Dongzhimen station can also bring you to Beijing Capital International Airport via the Airport Line;

Transfer between Line 1 and Line Batong at Sihui and Sihuidong stations;

Transfer from Line 1 to Line 10 at Guomao station to reach Zhongguancun, the north Third Ring Road (going north and west) or Jinsong (going south).

Via Line 10, transfer to Line 8 at Beitucheng station to reach the Olympic central zone, where the “Bird’s Nest” and other venues are located; transfer to Line 5 at Huixinxijie Nankou; transfer to Line 13 at Zhichunlu and Shaoyaoju stations; Sanyuanqiao station takes you to the airport via the Airport Line.

★  From subway to bus

Beijing’s subway system is thoroughly linked with bus routes.

The Beijing Railway Station, which can be reached via the Line 2 subway, has bus lines going north, southeast and to the West Railway Station, covering Chaoyang, Tongzhou, Daxing and other districts.

Xizhimen station is linked to many bus routes that go south and northeast. The long-distance bus routes near Dongzhimen station pass through Shunyi, Pinggu and other outskirts.

★  Park and ride

Park and ride facilities allow commuters to leave their personal vehicles in a parking lot and transfer to a bus or rail system.

In Beijing, because of city planning and other factors, park and ride is limited to bus and subway stations beyond the Fourth Ring Road. Since the Line 5 subway began operating, a low-fare parking lot, the largest in Beijing, was created at Tiantongyuan Beizhan station. Drivers are encouraged to spend just two yuan per day parking their vehicles and take the subway into the city.

1.At which of the station, passengers can go to the Beijing Capital International Airport by subway?

  A. Transfer to Line 1 at Jianguomen station, and then transfer to Line 10 at Guomao station.

  B. Transfer to Line 5 at Chongwenmen station, and then transfer to Line 10 at Guomao station.

           C. Transfer to Line 13 at Dongzhimen station, and then transfer to Line 8 at Beituchengstation.

D. Transfer to Line 1 at Dongzhimen station, and then transfer to Line 10 at Guomao station.

3.Which of the following is TRUE?

C. The Beijing Railway Station has bus lines going north and southeast.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2008年普通高等學(xué)校招生全國(guó)統(tǒng)一考試遼寧卷英語(yǔ)試題 題型:閱讀理解

I travel a lot, and I find out different “styles”(風(fēng)格) of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?”

Foreign tourists are often confused(困惑) in Japan because most streets there don’t have names; in Japan, people use landmarks(地標(biāo)) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”

In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”

People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They don’t know.

It’s true that a person doesn’t know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A new Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I don’t know” is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one.        A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!

1.When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place, they usually ______.

A.describe the place carefully

B.show him a map of the place

C.tell him the names of the streets

D.refer to recognizable buildings and places

2.What is the place where people measure distance in time?

A.New York.

B.Los Angeles.

C.Kansas.

D.Iowa.

3.People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer ______.

A.in order to save time

B.Los Angeles.

C.so as to be polite

D.for fun

4.What can we infer from the text?

A.It’s important for travelers to understand cultural differences.

B.It’s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.

C.People have similar understandings of politeness.

D.New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.
