A Harvard study of their graduates over thirty years found that there were only a small percentage (3%) of them who actually wrote down their goals—and these were the most successful! You can be certain that every one of those students had repeatedly heard the value of goal setting. Yet only 3% actually wrote down their goals consistently. Imagine what you can do if you both write down your goals and, then, focus on them consistently, until they are accomplished!
What is it that causes the “New Year’s Resolution Syndrome”? People make resolutions, work hard
at them for a few weeks, may be even a few months, and then forget them. Next year, they make the same New Year’s resolutions. That is the syndrome. So why do so many people do it?
They may be making goals that are too global, and too unrealistic. The elephant analogy (比喻) is
still the best one I know of to illustrate good goal setting. “How do you eat an elephant? One spoonful at a time.” So it is with goals. Make spoon size goals and accomplish them easily. Once you’ve mastered this, get a bigger spoon!
You may have too many people in your life who consciously or subconsciously are unwilling or
高二英语试卷·第3页（共8页）
unable to support you to reach your goals. Surround yourself with people who want you to have what you want for yourself. Support each other and you'll all achieve your highest goals.
We must be careful not to confuse busyness with progress. Be selective about how you use your
time and what you focus on. Success often comes when you know what to leave out, rather than what to include in your life.
Goal setting is like the pig and chicken who were out for a walk in town early one morning. The
chicken became really excited when she saw a sign that said “Ham & Eggs, $ 2. 99”. She said to the pig, “Look, we’ve got double billing again.” The pig grunted and said, “That’s all right for you to say. For you, it’s all in a day’s work. For me, it’s total commitment.” Goal setting is all in a day’s work. Goal achievement is total commitment.
24. What can we learn from paragraph 1?
A. Few Harvard students know the importance of setting goals.
B. Writing down goals is helpful in achieving them.
C. A very small percentage of Harvard students can succeed.
D. Every successful Harvard graduate has his own goal.
25. According to the elephant analogy, when setting goals, we should ________.
A. ask for others’ advice B. set great and worthy goals
C. break a big goal into smaller pieces D. refer to the goals we set earlier
26. What kind of people should you stay with if you want to achieve goals?
A. too many people B. people who are unwilling to support you
C. people who are unable to help you D. people who allow you to be yourself
27. What dose the story of the pig and chicken imply?
A. Rome is not built in one day. B. When the cat is away, the mice will play.
C. The early bird catches the worm. D. Birds of a feather flock together.
C
A research project called Mineral has created robots that move around in farm fields, collecting information about how plants are growing. The proiect aims to use computers to help farmers grow more food in ways that are healthy for the environment.
The Mineral project is run by a company called X, which is owned by Alphabet -the same company
that owns Google.
With the number of people on earth getting bigger each year, more and more food needs to be grown in order to feed everyone. As weather patterns continue to change because of the climate crisis, this task is becoming even more difficult.
In the past, when farmers tried to quickly increase the amount they produce, they used methods that
weren‘t always healthy for the environment —more fields, fertilizers, and pesticides.
“Instead, the focus of the Mineral project is on getting farms to produce more by improving conditions for each plant, ”Elliot Grant, who leads the project, says. “The goal is to manage the plant instead of the plot (土地）.”
Mineral's team spent several years talking to farmers to see what problems they were having and
how these problems might be fixed. That led to the creation of special robots, called “plant buggies”,
which collect detailed information about crops.
At first, the buggies were very simple. They were built on bicycles and took pictures with cell phones.
高二英语试卷·第4页（共8页）
Over time, they ‘ve been improved repeatedly. The robots can take detailed pictures of plants, track each plant’s location, and measure the plant's size.
Before, farmers had information about the soil and the weather, but they couldn‘t track every plant.
Now with Mineral's robots, they can. Studying each individual plant could end up saving time and money. For example, if robots can detect which plants have diseases, farmers can quickly get rid of these
plants before they ruin the entire crop. The detailed information will also allow farmers to only fertilize
and water the plants that truly need it, meaning fewer plants will be spoiled and more food will be produced.
28. What special about the Mineral products?
A. It’s organized by Google. B. It will increase production.
C. It will open up more fields. D. It’s environmentally friendly.
29. What will the Mineral project focus on according to Elliot Grant?
A. Improving the soil. B. Predicting the weather .
C. Understanding the crops. D. Controlling the temperature.
30. What does the underlined word “That” in Paragraph6 refer to?
A. Talking to farmers to learn some problems. B. Helping farmers kill pests.
C. Working on the farm with farmers. D. Giving farmers lessons.
31. What’s the last paragraph mainly about?
A. How “plant buggies” work. B. The benefits of “plant buggies”.
C. The future of the Mineral project. D. How the Mineral project develops.
D
Children may not be storing coins in piggy banks for much longer; with the move towards a cashless society, pocket money is moving digital.
To reflect this trend, a number of mobile budgeting apps for children has sprung up worldwide.
These apps offer a simple money management service for children, often for a monthly subscription fee paid by the parents. Parents can add money to children’s accounts, set limits and monitor transactions, while children can choose to save their money or spend it using a prepaid card that works like a debit card. The apps suggest minimum ages ranging from six to nine for the prepaid card.
The companies behind the apps argue that in an increasingly cashless society, they can be a valuable
way of teaching young children about money. Two thirds of adults globally are financially illiterate, according to survey, and one in four teenagers are unable to make even simple decisions on everyday spending. These apps aim to overcome this and teach children financial concepts, such as budgeting, interest rates and income.
Haglund believes the app can teach responsible spending habits, whereas schools tend to focus
more on economic theory. “You don't become better at money management just because you have a
degree in economics. It’s more about the attitude and the relationship you have with parents’ money when you’re 6 to 12 years old,” he says. But Winter, warns that while digital tools can help there needs to be a more structured approach to financial education. The area should “have regular, dedicated, classroom time and be taught as an independent subject,” she said. One concern is that introducing digital money apps to young children could help to encourage irresponsible spending habits. “If children don’t have a good foundation in financial capability, there’s a risk that money apps could be seen as developing bad habits” says Winter. However, Haglund says children are protected from this as parents can monitor their spending habits and none of the services offer an overdraft so children cannot go into debt.

32. What is Winter’s attitude towards apps’ future?
A. Ambiguous B. Hopeful C. Concerned D. Tolerant
33. In which aspect do children benefit from the apps?
A. Gaining high-tech knowledge. B. Learning self-control.
C. Building confidence. D. Developing financial-planning skills.
34. What can be inferred from the figures in the paragraph 3?
A. Most adults are lacking in money management knowledge.
B. Teenagers are spending their money on everyday life.
C. Adults don’t have a degree in economics.
D. Teenagers don’t have the ability to make decisions by themselves.
35. What phenomenon is described in the passage?
A. The money management apps will be accepted by all people.
B. Traditional pocket money will gradually switch to e-money in the long run.
C. The money management apps will be resisted by all people.
D. Traditional pocket money will totally disappear in the short run.

●Keep Your Personal Finances Mobile
College is the age for one to start being smart with their money and know how to properly invest.
37 This is how you learn what responsibility is and how you become truly independent. Actually,
we’re luckier than our parents were, because there are now a lot of APPs that can give you an image of your money and costs.
● 38
My best financial advice is to be smart with you first credit card. During your first few weeks, you
will likely be surrounded with credit salespeople. Don’t be tempted to open a credit card just because they tell you it’s cool to do it. Building credit is important, and so is opening your first credit card. ●Learn To Start Saving A Little Each Month

save all your coins and deposit every week into a savings account. 39 This is a no brainer way to
save and a great habit good for your future.

Getting a job in college is important because you can earn “spending money” and even save some
to put toward books, supplies, etc. But your job can have an even bigger impact if it’s one that allows you to do your homework. There are many on-campus jobs, including checking student IDs at a gym,
managing a resource center at the library, for example. 40

There’s a program for middle schools called Treps that teaches kids about business and product
development. The students are given the task 41 products on their own, and at the end of the
program the school gym is 42 up like a trade show where all the kids get to sell the products. They
each get a 43 , make signs and dress up a little. The school gym is 44 to the public and
attracts a crowd.
Some of the kids there 45 have a crowd at their stand, because the products made by
themselves are unique and interesting. But there are some other kids, with 46 that aren’t very good,
just don’t stand out, aren’t getting attention. At first, they stand there with a 47 face but later you
can see the 48 in their eyes because everyone walks by the stands uninterested. I always think it
49 to visit the stands of those kids, buy something, and 50 them for how hard they must have
worked on it. Just the confirmation that someone likes what they make and notices their effort can 51
them. I usually bring $100 to this event merely for this 52 . As the night goes on, 53 they still
haven’t sold much, I will send my daughter over there to buy something from them.
The other day, as an education expert, I was 54 with some parents about this. They asked me
why I encouraged the kids who made terrible products, saying “ 55 confirmation means they won’t
learn anything”. I told them, “These kids know their products aren’t a 56 , but that doesn’t mean
they should 57 . It takes courage to 58 there and try to sell their products. If nobody buys
anything, or nobody 59 their effort, they will probably quit next time.” Hearing these, all the
parents agreed.
