Today, roller skating is easy and fun. But a long time ago, it wasn’t easy at all. Before 1750, the idea of skating didn’t exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlin’s work was making musical instruments. In his spare time he liked to play the violin. Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams. People called him a dreamer.
One day Merlin received an invitation to attend a fancy dress ball. He was very pleased and a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make a grand entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.
Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.
On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was greatly surprised to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the mirror, breaking to pieces. Nobody forgot Merlin’s grand entrance for a long time!

Homework and stress are rarely reduced inside the classroom.Meanwhile,outside the classroom,the pressure is on to find scholarships for college.
According to Braintrack,a higher education database with worldwide reach,more than 3 billion US dollars (18 billion yuan) in private scholarships are awarded to college students annually.Average awards range from $2,000 to $3,000.
The scholarship application process is similar to the college application process: forms to be completed,test scores and transcripts to be sent,essays to be written and often interviews to be prepared for.
A few great places to start looking for scholarships are: www.fastweb.com,www.finaid.org and www.collegexpress.com.Check out the annual scholarship guidebooks Scholarships,Grants & Prizes by Peterson’s and the Ultimate Scholarship Book: Billions of Dollars in Scholarships,Grants and Prizes by Gen Tanabe and Kelly Tanabe.
Be selective.Thoroughly research the qualifications required by each of the scholarships.Don’t waste your time applying for those that are need based if you can’t produce the appropriate documents.
Research past recipients (接受者).Check out the websites of the organizations sponsoring the scholarships.Many post the biographies of past recipients.You don’t need to have cured cancer,but if you don’t think your résumé (履歷) measures up to the past winners’,you might be better served by moving onto the next scholarship on your list.Prepare for the interview.
You’ll want to dazzle them with your personality,but above all you’ll want to be prepared.Find someone you trust to conduct a similar interview with you – someone who will be honest with you and provide valuable suggestions.
Let your personality shine through in your essays.The essays are the best way for students to share who they are,where they’ve come from,what they’ve overcome and so on.Tell your story in an interesting and persuasive way.And if you do have an interview,send a thank you note afterward.

科目:高中英語 來源:2014-2015學(xué)年山東省高三第一次診斷性考試英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解
Today we’ll talk about reading.When we read a text,our eyes move across a page in short,quick movements.We recognize words usually when our eyes still fixate(停留,凝視).Each time they fixate,we see a group of words.This is known as the recognition span or the visual span(視幅).The length of time for which the eyes stop varies from person to person.It also varies within any parson according to his purpose in reading and his familiarity with the text.In addition,it can be affected by such factors as lighting and tiredness.
Unfortunately,in the past,many reading improvement courses have concentrated too much on how our eyes move across the page.As a result of this misleading emphasis(強調(diào))on the purely visual aspects of reading,many exercises have been designed to train the eyes to see more words at one fixation.For example,in some exercises,words are flashed on to a screen for a tenth of a second.One of the exercises has required students to fix their eyes on some central point,taking in the words on either side.Such word patterns are often formed in the shape of pyramids(金字塔),so the reader takes in more and more words at each successive(連續(xù)的)fixation.All these exercises are very clever,but it' s one thing to improve a person’s ability to see words and quite another thing to improve his ability to read a text efficiently.Reading requires the ability to understand the relationship between words.Consequently,for these reasons,many experts have now begun to question the usefulness of eye training,especially since any approach which trains a person to read isolated(孤立的)words and phrases would seem unlikely to help him in reading a continuous text.
1.The time of the recognition span can be affected by the following factors except _______.
A. 1ighting and tiredness
B. the length of a group of words
C. one’s purpose in reading
D. one’s familiarity with the text
2.The author may believe that reading ______________.
A. requires a reader to take in more words at each fixation
B. requires a reader to see words more quickly
C. demands a deeply-participating mind
D. demands more eyes than mind
3.What does the author mean by the underlined sentence in the second paragraph?
A. The ability to see words is not needed for an efficient reading.
B. The reading exercises mentioned are useless for reading.
C. The reading exercises mentioned can’t help improve reading.
D. The reading exercises mentioned have done a great job so far.
4.Which of the following is NOT true? _______________.
A. The visual span is a word or a group of words we see each time
B. Many experts began to question the efficiency of eye training
C. The emphasis on the purely visual aspects is misleading
D. The eye training will help readers in reading a continuous text
5.The tune of the author in writing this text is _________________.
A. critical B. neutral
C. supportive D. optimistic

Comfort zone is the mental place surrounded by borders in our mind where we feel secure.Even though this comfort area and its boundaries are just a state of mind that has nothing to do with reality,it plays a huge role in the progress of our development.Since the comfort zone is limited,there is not much benefit for you inside your comfort zone.Nothing new will happen until you open yourself and leave your comfort zone.
Even though your background may be affecting your present situation,what really matters is not where you were born,your skin color,race,age,gender,religion,government,or even the poor environment in which you have been living for so many years,but what really matters and makes a big difference in your life is your attitude,to understand your comfort zone,how you limit yourself within it,who you are,why you behave the way you do it,and mainly where you are going.
Sadly many people don’t go anywhere because they stay within their comfort zone.They accept defeat after defeat before even trying or knowing how capable or valuable they really are.These circumstances are not the cause of our actual situation but the conformism (因循守舊) and the poverty of our thoughts and therefore the weakness of our broken spirit. Leave your past behind;constantly transcend (超越) your comfort zone!Your past within this comfort zone is nothing but a wasted load that you don’t need to carry at all.
Take constant action as many times as it is required and never,never quit. As Napoleon Hill said,“A quitter never wins and a winner never quits. Defeat is never a failure;no circumstance ever is failure until it is accepted by the individual as a failure.” Nothing is impossible for an optimist attitude;everything is possible when we start blindly trusting ourselves,when we have a burning desire to succeed and a blind determination to make our dreams come true;everything is possible when we don’t take a no for an answer.
1. What is comfort zone according to the passage?
A.A place in our realistic life where we obtain comfort.
B.A mental place in our mind where we stick to our beliefs.
C.A limited place in our mind where we feel safe.
D.A secret place in our mind where we communicate with ourselves.
2. The author believes staying in our comfort zone can________.
A.prevent us from being aware of the reality
B.protect us from the cruel reality
C.push our development in life
D.stop us making progress in life
3. Napoleon Hill is quoted in the last paragraph to show that________.
A.one should not quit in order to succeed
B.a(chǎn) successful person can’t leave his comfort zone
C.there is a great difference between defeat and failure
D.it is important to take constant actions
4.The writing style of this passage can be described as________.
A.defensive B.persuasive
C.subjective D.supportive
