Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

A busy life can be personally satisfying, but it may make you feel too tired to achieve the inner peace that will connect you with your true happiness. Begin with simplifying your life and working towards a more peaceful state of mind.

Recognize the differences between the things you need and the things you want. Our culture provides us with the message that materials will make our lives better. The reality is that most of these things will complicate our lives without bringing true happiness. Free yourself-- learn to be satisfied with fewer materials and greater simplicity.

If you let someone else define your life, your’re missing the chance to follow your own desires. Your inner life is weakened when you are limited by conformity. Why do you give up your freedom and allowed all of your decisions to be defined by what others think you “should” do？ Think for yourself. Let your passions be your guide.

Life is full of opportunities to earn money, give services. Learn new skills and make new friends. Some of us want them all and fill up our timetable with all kind of activities. Rushing from one activity to another leaves you with no time to slow down. No matter how worthy you think your activities are, rethink them. Keep the ones that are most important and leave out the ones that are adding to the pace of your life with little return.

Life is forever changing, and you will never reach a point of simplicity and endless happiness. But each moment you spend on the path to simplicity does have the possibility to bring happiness to your life.

Task 2 Read the passage about tips for shopping online (part 2) and choose the correct answer. Tip 2: When you start shopping, know what you’re looking for. This way it will be easier to ignore the other things that you really don't need. Also, remember how much you want to spend and don’t go over your limit. The shopping cart may be virtual, but that credit card bill you get at the end of the month is 100% real. Tip 3: Read the reviews. I know that is boring but you have to research. It will save you a lot of disappointment. There have been lots of instances where you get a size medium and turns out the dress fits like an extra-large in real life. It always helps to read the reviews because people love to complain about products. Listen to them! They’ll save you lot of time and money. You will just have to send the item back otherwise. Tip 4: Check for hidden costs before you buy. The $20 T-shirt you like could turn into a $40 T-shirt if the shipping charges are high. Tip 5: Better safe than sorry! Check if you can return the item and if you have to pay for the postage. If there isn’t a return policy, or if there is a charge for returning the item, it is better to know now than be unpleasantly surprised later. Choose the correct answer. What must you check before you buy an article?

A、You must check if you have to pay for the item.

B、You must check if you can pay.

C、You must check if you can pay by credit card.

D、You must check if you can return the item.

Practice Make the outline and map of the following passages Passage 1 Divorce has serious negative consequences. First, social adjustment after the divorce is a troublesome time. The former couple often finds that starting to date again can be nerve-racking. Also, married friends may exclude singles from social plans. Secondly, emotional difficulties among the original family members are common. Feelings of guilt and resentment may persist between the former husband and wife. At the same time children may be confused and hurt; many also feel guilty, imagining that they were somehow to blame for the divorce. A third consequence is that financial adjustments are necessary. Alimony, child support, and property dispersal must be dealt with. Also, the high fees that lawyers charge can be a burden. Passage 2 Several factors influence the justice system’s treatment of criminals. For one thing, the sex of offenders affects the severity of sentences. A woman is less likely to receive the death penalty than a man . Also, the court is more reluctant to send a mother to prison than a father. Another factor in the treatment of offenders is their race. Nonwhites are awarded parole and probation less often. In addition, blacks are executed more often for capital crimes. Finally, the age of offenders is considered in sentencing. Young offenders are given special treatment. And the elderly are given more lenient sentences.

Everything is paid for and included.

This started out as “Friday’s off”, but roles like customer support and operations need to cover all hours. To come up with the best ideas, you need a fresh mind.
