Ursa Majorused to bea beautiful woman. Sheonce won theheart ofZeus, thegod of thesky.
According to Greek mythology, Zeus had many human girlfriends. One of them was Callisto.
Zeus used to visither regularly,and thisangered his wifeHera.
One day, Zeus was walking through the woods with Callisto. Suddenly, he saw Hera coming.

When Hera arrived, she saw Zeus walking by himself in the forest. But Hera knew her husband
well. Shedidn’t believehe was there alone. Sheordered that theyreturn together totheir homeonMt.
Olympus. Zeus didn’t want to go because he knew he had to bring Callisto back to human form
before returning to Mt.Olympus. But since Hera insisted,he had toleave immediately.
Zeus left Callisto living on as a bear. That same day, Arcas, the son of Zeus and Callisto, was
hunting in the woods. He saw the big bear and shot at it. It was a successful attack. But beforeArcas’

louder. Zeus heard him and understood that Hera could hear the man as well. He quietly returned to
Earth and askedArcas to hide the secret. Zeus changed Callisto back into a bear and made her one of
the largest constellations in the sky. It’s known as the Great Bear. Zeus also turned Arcas into a

RepairorReplace?(你会如何处理家用电器)
Amuch-used home appliance suddenly stops working. You look at it ___66___:Should I repair
itor replace(替换) it?

{#{QQABIYCQggigABAAAQhCQwnSCgIQkAAACAoGhBAAoAAAgBFABAA=}#}It’s a hard question that almost every family has faced. There are so many things to consider,
from the cost to the effects. But you may not have much time to make a decision—just imagine
living withouta(n) ___67___ona hotsummer’s day.
In a recent ___68____, more than 95 percent of the 11,350 participants(参与者) chose to
repair a broken appliance. Only three percent chose to replace the appliance. Which decision was the
smarter?
From my point of view, one great way of looking at the problem is to work out the current(当
前的) value of your appliance. When you _____69___ a new home appliance, write down its cost
and the number of years you expect it to last. Divide the cost by the number of years. This will tell
you how much value the appliance ___70___ each year. When the appliance breaks down, you can
quickly work out its current value. If a repair costs more than the appliance’s current value, you
should replace theappliance. Otherwise, you may considerhaving it repaired.
According to the theory, if a washing machine breaks down when it is eight years old, you
should replace it. For fridges and ovens, that numberis nine.
What do you think of my ___71___ ? How do you decide whether to repair or replace a
broken appliance?
66.A. hopefully B. helplessly C. immediately D. unluckily
67.A. airconditioner B. car C.computer D. dream
68.A. experiment B.news report C. speech D. survey
69.A. buy B. check C. break D.achieve

LivingLikeFranklin（像本杰明·富兰克林那样安排作息帮助我成为了一个更高效的人）
Benjamin Franklin, a writer, printer, politician, scientist and inventor, certainly knew how to get
things done quickly. I recently learned about his daily schedule. And in an effort to be more
productive, Ihave tried to followit.
I started by getting up at 5 every morning. However,I always found myself tired during theday.
After six days, I decided to rise at 6 a.m. and spend two hours — one hour less than Franklin —
planning my day. Franklin’s day didn’t seem to include any exercise. I’m used to exercising in the
morning, so Iadded “workout”to thosetwo hours.At 8a.m., Isitdown towork.
Working continuously for four hours was a challenge. I realized that I was less able to fully
focus on my work after 10 a.m. Slowly,I found a fix by dealing with harder tasks, likewriting, inthe
first halfof thesefour hours.Iuse theremaining two hours foreasier tasks likeresearching.
Takinga two-hourbreakat noonto eat and read seemed wasteful tome. I rarely spent more than
30 minutes eating lunch. During the first week, I kept watching the clock to find out when I could
return to work. Finally, I decided not to eat and read at my desk. Now, I’m used to taking a longer
lunch break,and I’ve seen thebenefits.
At 2 p.m., I start working non-stop for another four hours.Again, the order in which I complete
my tasks is based on my energy level.At 6 p.m., I force myself to call it a day. I spend the rest of the
dayhaving supper and relaxing. Igo to bed at 10p.m.
Every morning, Franklin would ask himself, “What good shall I do today?” And he would end
the day by asking himself, “_______________________________?”At first, I thought this was silly.
But answering thosetwo questions daily has helped metomake themostof myday.
I’ve learned a lotbyfollowing Franklin’s schedule. I thinkI’m usingmy time
more wiselynow.
