Ever seen a great champion boxer like Manny Pacquiao? With his speed and power, he has conquered
(征服)
lots of other great boxers of the 21st century. In between fights, he keeps his training and strengthens
it when another fight approaches.
Just like a boxer, we too, come face to face with many competitors in the arena
(竞技场)
of
life

problems and difficulties. The bad news is that we don't really know when they occur.
Here are several reasons why you should train yourself for success like a champion boxer!
You don't practice in the arena

that's where your skills and your abilities are evaluated. This also
means that you don't practice solving problems and developing yourself when problems occur

you prepare
yourself to face them long before you actually face them.
Talent is good but training is even better. Back in college, one of my classmates in Political Science
didn't bring any textbook or notebook in our classes

he just listened and participated in discussions. What
I didn't understand was how he became a top student! Obviously, he was gifted with a great memory and
analytical skills. In short, he was talented.
If you are talented, you maybe need less preparation and training time in facing life's challenges. But
even for people who are talented, training and learning are important. Avoid the lazy person's maxim
(格言)

“If it isn't broken, why fix it?” Why wait for your roof to leak in the rainy season when you can fix it right
away?
Training enables you to gain intuition
(直觉)
and reflexes
(反应力)
.Without training, you will mess
up. Without training, you won't be able to anticipate how your enemy will hit you. You will lose control of
your race car after the first lap. With training, you lower the possibility of these accidents.
Keep in mind that training is borne out of self-command and strong will. Even if you meet with some
setbacks in your training, if you keep at it and persevere, you will soon see results in your life and when
problems come, you will be like the champion boxer who stands tall and fights until the final round is over
and you're proclaimed as the champion!

As with many etymologies

词源)
,the exact root of this word is difficult to say with one hundred percent
certainty. However, the leading theory is extremely believable and backed up by a fair bit of documented
evidence. Specifically, it is thought that a dollar is called a “buck

One of the earliest references of this was in 1748, about 44 years before the first US dollar was created,
where there is a reference to the exchange rate for a cast
(桶)
of alcoholic drink traded to Native Americans
being

In yet another documented reference from 1748, Conrad Weiser, while traveling through present day
Ohio, noted in his journal that someone had been “robbed of the value of 300 Bucks

At this time, a buck skin was a common medium of exchange. There is also evidence that a
simply mean one deerskin, but may have meant multiple skins, depending on quality. For instance, skins
from deer killed in the winter were considered superior to those killed in the summer, due to the fur being
thicker. It is thought that the highest quality skins generally had a one to one value with one skin equaling one
buck. In contrast, for lower quality skins, it might take several of them to be valued at a single buck. The
specific value for given sets of skins was then set at trading. In addition, when the skin was from another
animal, the number of skins required to equal a buck varied based on the animal and the quality of the skins.
For instance, there is one documented trade where twelve high-quality rabbit skins equaled one buck.
This use of skins as a medium of exchange gradually died off over the next century as more and more
Europeans moved in and built towns and cities. Once the US dollar was officially introduced after the passing
of the Coinage Act of 1792 , it quickly became the leading item used as a medium of exchange, but the term

28. What can be inferred from the text?
A. The first dollar was made from a deerskin.
B. A skin from any animal was valued at a buck.
C. The quality of a deerskin varied with the change of seasons.
D. Deerskins were the only medium for trading in 1970s.
不积跬步无以至千里,不积小流无以成江海。

29. When did the use of skins as a common medium of exchange die off?
A. As more and more Europeans settled in America.
B. When the Coinage Act of 1792 was passed.
C. When the bucks died out in the 1950s.,
D. As the US dollar was officially introduced.
30. How does the author mainly develop this text? ”

A.
By analyzing causes.
C. By making comparison.

A new device works like a solar panel, except it doesn't harvest energy from the sun. It captures energy
from the cold night sky.
A
prototype
(雏形)
of the device produced enough electricity at night to power a small light bulb. A
bigger version might one day light rooms or charge phones. It could also power electronics in remote or
low-resource areas that lack electricity.
The device makes use of the temperature difference between the earth and outer space to create
electricity. As long as one side of it is cooler than the other, the generator can produce electricity. The cooler
side faces the sky and is attached to an aluminum plate. That plate is sealed beneath a transparent cover and
surrounded with insulation
(隔热材料)
to keep out heat. The bottom of the generator is attached to an
exposed aluminum
(铝)
plate. That plate is warmed by the local air. At night, the top plate can get a couple
of degrees Celsius cooler than the bottom of the generator.
Researchers tested a 20-centimeter prototype one clear December night in Stanford University,
California. The generator produced up to 25 milliwatts of power per square meter of the device. That was
enough power to light a small light emitting diode
(发光二极管),
or a LED bulb. Further improvements
might increase its production to at least 500 milliwatts per square meter. The system might need more
insulation around the cool, top plate to do that.
“The device could also help power remote weather stations or other environmental de
vices,
Aaswath Raman. He is a material scientist who works on the device at the University of California, Los
Angeles.
you have some low-power devices and you need to power them through three months of darkness, this might
be a way. ”

32. What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 3 ?
A.
Application fields of the device.
B. By following the order of importance.
D. By following the order of time.
