A group of graduates, successful in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor.Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.
Before offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and a variety of cups ? porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking and cheap, some extremely expensive ? telling them to help themselves to the coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones.While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.The fact is that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee.In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink.What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously(有意識地) went for the best cups...And then you began eyeing each other's cups.
Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups.They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not change the quality of life we live.Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has provided us."
God makes the coffee, not the cups.Enjoy your coffee!
"The happiest people don't have the best of everything.They just make the best of everything."
Live simply.Love generously.Care deeply.Speak kindly.Leave the rest to God.

“Life is speeding up. Everyone is getting unwell.” This may sound like something someone would say today. But, in fact, an unknown citizen who lived in Rome in 53 AD wrote it.
We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and they can even change our lives. But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives?
Pictur e this: You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a message from your friend appears on the screen, and the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to get it done. How calm and happy do you feel?
Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have no telephones, no cars, not even any electricity often seem to be happier? Perhaps because they lead simpler lives.
One family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today. The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons, Benjamin and Thomas, spent nine weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phones.
The grandmother, Lyn, said, “It was hard physically. But not mentally.” She believed life was less materialistic. “The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes,” she said. The boys said they fought less. Probably, they said, because there was less to fight over, such as their computer. Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a “trendy(時髦的),beer-drinking granny, to one who cooked things”.
Here are some simple ways to beat the stress often caused by our inventions!
Don’t be available all the time. Turn off your mobile phone at certain time of the day. Don’t check your e-mail every day.
Don’t reply to somebody as soon as they leave a text message just because you can. It may be fun at first, but it soon gets annoying.
With the Internet and so much information available, we are expected to know everything all the time, but sometimes don’t be afraid to say, “I don’t know.”
Make sure you spend some time talking to your family. Set aside one evening a week when you don’t turn on the television. Play cards and chat instead.
Get a low-neck hobby. Every day do something in the old-fashioned way, such as walking to have a face-to-face meeting instead of using the e-mail or telephone, or making a birthday card.
Don’t worry too much about life?laugh more!
73. The writer uses the quote at the beginning of the passage to___________ .
A. share a truth about life
B. tell us what life was like a long time ago
C. make us wonder what happened in Rome in 53 AD
D. point out that you experience some big problems and they may be the same
74. Why did the family choose to spend some time in a 1940s house?
A. Because they loved to live simple lives.
B. Becau se they were curious about how people lived without modern inventions.
C. Because they were troubled by modern inventions.
D. Because living in a different time would be a lot of fun for them.
75. What do you think the underlined word “available” in the first suggestion offered by the writer
76 You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how:
Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. 77 A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you realize hat is happening to your time.
Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may by a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or televisions. When you sit down to study concentrate on the subjects.
Make good use of your time in class. 78 Listening carefully in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes, review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. 79 If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
Develop a good attitude towards tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be over worried.
80 You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.
A. There are other methods that might help you with your studying.
B. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment.
C. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says.
D. No one can become a top student unless he or she works hard.
E. Maybe you are an average student.
F. Make full use of class time to take notes of what the teacher says in class.
