It’s been said that life turns on small things. Sometimes it’s hard to see how small choices can change your life. But when put together over time, the little things can make the biggest difference.
The theme of Success for Teens is “Little Things Matter”. The book helps teens identify small,positive choices they can make in their lives to help them reach their goals. Lots of teens don’t realize how the little choices in their lives can have lasting effects. Often they focus on the bigger events, such as a major exam, a big game or competition, or choosing a college. The little things, however, can go unnoticed unless your teen understands how important they can be.
The little things that lead to success are mostly easy to do. Help your teen identify a few areas in everyday life where he or she can make small, positive choices. It might be as simple as getting up on time, prioritizing(按重要性排列) their schoolwork, putting in an extra 10 minutes of practice or using some spare time to help someone else.
Nineteen-year-old Kyle Freas used to be on his school baseball team and would play every day after school. When the season was over, he had an empty three hours a day, so he started spending one third of such extra time daily looking for ways to help other kids. Over the past few years, his project has raised thousands of dollars to help abused, homeless and sick children. Kyle spent just a little time each day doing something that ended up benefiting a lot of kids. The important thing to understand is that Kyle made the small and positive decisions necessary for success. Make sure your child understands that even though the results of the positive choices may not be seen right away, they are building on each other and taking him or her on a path that will lead to success.

According to a report by the United Nations,54 percent of the world’s population lives in urban areas and it predicts that by 2050,this figure will have increased to around 70 percent.But as more and more people migrate from the countryside to the city to get better opportunities,they can end up with nowhere to live.
This is true in places such as Rio de Janeiro, where migrants can’t rent or buy a home, and they end up building their own communities and houses on unoccupied land.These are called shanty towns—poor communities where the houses are built out of cheap materials—and often don’t have any electricity or water supply.
These are,of course,not the megacities(大城市)of the future we want to see.Some serious urban planning is needed to make our cities of the future good,safe and modern places to live in.This involves improving the infrastructure(基础设施),the housing conditions and also the opportunities for education and employment.
Something urban planners are looking at now is the creation of“smart cities”.According to John Rossant, founder and chairman of the non-profit organization New Cities Foundation,technology is the way forward.He thinks that it’s generally accepted that“cloud computing, ubiquitous internet , robust 5G networks,etc , will transform our cities.”He says technology is really“a game changer” in urbanisation.It would collect large amounts of data about how a city is performing and may improve how a city functions.
This may sound like a utopian(乌托邦似的)view.For now,some big cities around the world are trying out more low—tech schemes to try and make them desirable places to live and work in.Building shared—ownership housing and improving public transport are some ways. And encouraging cycling and building bike lanes can keep the population healthy and cut down on smog.What would make your city a better place to live in?
30. What’s the text mainly about?
A.The city of the future. B.The increase of the population. C.Urban construction. D.The function of smart cities.
31. Why does the author mention Rio de Janeiro in Paragraph 2?[

32. What plays an important role in the creation of smart cities?
A.Technology.
C.The infrastructure of the city.
B.Urban planning.
D.Opportunities for education.
33.What can we know from the last paragraph?
A.High-tech plans can be easily realized. B.Public transport is well developed in cities. C.Shared-ownership houses make no sense. D.Ways of low-tech are available at present. 第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Do you have the experience of digging out your suitcase, deciding what to bring and being afraid that you’ve forgotten something? 34 . Hope they can transform the way you pack. Keep a Basket Handy
Do you wait until the last minute to pack? Keep a basket in your bedroom, living room, or bath room that you can use to throw in items you’ll need to pack as you come across them. 35 . Besides, you can just put the contents of the basket into your suitcase if you are in a hurry to leave for the airport. Buy Wrinkle-free Clothing

So you don’t need to waste your effort to remember where you left your hand-written packing lists. Schedule a Packing Time
Time can slip away from you before a trip---you may be caught up at work, at home, or be occupied with other responsibilities of daily life. 38 . That way, you will not need to do your packing frantically (狂乱地) from the last minute to 1 o’clock on the day you leave.
