You may love your children deeply，but if all of your time and energy is spent on them，you will have little left for yourself or anyone else.Time is irreplaceable.No one knows how long they will live.Live deliberately.Spend time wisely.Live and love and enjoy what you have to the fullest.Once a minute is gone，you will never again have it back.语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。为什么你总抱怨时间不够用？时间都去哪儿了？想想被你忽略和不经意用去的那些时间片段，你就会明白了。1The author doesnt consider the time spent in _ as the little bits of time.Aeating mealsBsurfing the InternetCwatching TV showsDplaying with children解析：细节理解题。根据第二段的第二句可知，作者认为用在睡觉、吃饭、沐浴和穿衣上的时间是最基本的，然后第三至六段中列举了许多关于短小的时间片段的例子。答案：A2Whats the authors purpose in writing the text?ATo teach readers about time management at work.BTo tell readers how to save time in their daily life.CTo remind readers to be aware of the little bits of time.DTo encourage readers to spend more time with their families.解析：写作意图题。根据第四至六段可知，作者想通过本文提醒读者要特别注意生活中的微小时间片段。答案：C3What does the underlined word “falter” in Paragraph 7 mean?AImprove.BWeaken.CForm.

isnt muchI just stopped coloring my hair.I had brown hair that started going gray when I was 30.So, like a lot of women，I started dyeing(染)it.It was expensive and timeconsuming.And my hair grows fast，so I needed to go back to the hair salon(美发厅)every 5 weeks.Many people seem to enjoy holding onto their youth for as long as possible，giving others the impression that they dont have much wisdom or many accomplishments.But our hair starts to turn gray and suddenly we start spending D|S500 or more a year to cover something our male colleagues dont need to cover.Of course，people should do what they want to do with their own bodymy mother is 91 and still has“blonde” hair，and why not？I just wish more of us would feel that it is OK to be ourselves，because going gray has done more for me than saving me time and money.I like my natural hair，just as it is.I like how it has got curly again.It is recovering after years of being damaged by chemicals.I also like that it has given me some needed attitude in a society that makes youth seem so important，while being against maturity.It reminds me that Im not a kid anymore and this isnt a bad thing.Not being a kid anymore means I read the books I want，and not the books I feel I should read.It means not wasting my time at events I dont need to attend when Id rather be with my family and friends.When I see my hair in the mirror，its a reminder that my time is limited，and I should spend it doing what matters.Theres nothing shameful about growing older.And pretending its not happening is a way of giving up our power.I see my gray hair as a little act of rebellion(反叛)against the idea that people lose value as they age，instead of gaining it.I see gray hair as my “flag” and Im letting it fly proudly.语篇解读在文章开头，作者叙述了自己虽然头发变白但不再染发，从而受到别人的好评的经历，接着表达了自己对变老的看法。作者认为染发浪费金钱和时间，追求自然、重视因年龄增长而带来的智慧才是重要的。5How does the author feel about coloring hair?AIt shows peoples great courage.BIt is a good way to

importance of different attitudes.DTo analyze the advantages and disadvantages of

geology，which rises with mountain ranges and dips with seas.The continent is called Greater Adria.Its the size of Greenland and it broke off from North Africa，only to be buried under Southern Europe about 140 million years ago.And chances are youve been there without even knowing it.“Forget Atlantis，” said Douwe van Hinsbergen，the study author and professor at Utrecht University.“Without realizing it，vast numbers of tourists spend their holiday each year on the lost continent of Greater Adria.” This area is called Adria by geologists，so the researchers for this study refer to the previously undiscovered continent as Greater Adria.Most of Greater Adria was underwater，covered by shallow seas，coral reefs and sediments(沉淀物)The sediments formed rocks and those rocks became mountain ranges in these areas: the Alps，the Apennines，the Balkans and Greece.The researchers found that Greater Adria started to become its own continent about 240 million years ago.This isnt the first time a lost continent has been found.In January 2017，researchers announced the discovery of a lost continent left over from the supercontinent Gondwana，which began breaking apart 200 million years ago.The leftover(剩余的)piece，which was covered in lava(岩浆)，is now under Mauritius，an island in the Indian Ocean.And in September 2017，a different research team found the lost continent of Zealandia through ocean drilling in the South Pacific.Its twothirds of a mile beneath the sea.Greater Adria isnt the first lost continent to be found.But if research in past years shows anything，it likely wont be the last discovery.语篇解读 研究人员在再现地中海区域复杂地质的进化时，意外地发现了一个隐藏的大陆，这块大陆被叫做Greater Adria。本文主要介绍了与Greater Adria有关的一些情况。9How did the researchers find Greater Adria?AThey found it accidentally.BThey got inspired by
