As he drove near school, I would shrink (身体蜷缩) down into the seat, hoping to disappear. Here I was 12, and my father would kiss me goodbye. I felt so e...” He went on, “I remember the day I did something to my father. When we got to school, my father had his usual big smile. As he began to lean towards me, I put my hand up and said, ‘No, Dad.’ It was the first time I’d ever talked to him that way, and he had this surprised look. I said, ‘Dad, would you like to say goodbye in another way?’ My father looked at me, and his eyes started to tear up. ‘You’re right,’ he said. ‘You’re a big boy...a man. I won’t kiss you anymore.’” Frank got a sad look on his face, and the tears filled his eyes. He said, “It wasn’t long after that before my father went to the sea and never came back.” Frank said again, “I wish that my dad would give me just one more kiss. I wish I had been a man then.

C In today’s fast-paced world, research shows that more and more people are feeling “time poor”. Time poverty can happen when work social duties, and family responsibilities take up too much of a person’s time, leaving little or no time for fun or personal interests. It can also happen when one feels like they are running out of time to reach their goals or complete tasks. The Internet, mobile technology, and social media have allowed people to experience and do many jobs in a single lifetime. The fear of missing out and the stress caused by it increase the feeling of time poverty. Besides, we often say “yes” to any extra work. It could be to help your team or your friends. But by saying ”yes” to everything, you are adding another task to an already full plate. People who don’t have enough time fail to perform properly at work and remain stressed. Continuous stress can harm mental health. Moreover, less quality (优质的) time with friends and family can make a person feel more lonely. So how can we stop being time poor? There are two ways. Firstly, be intentional with your time. It may seem harmless to check your phone for 5 to 10 minutes every hour, but this can add up to more than 90 minutes wasted every day just checking your phone. So, every minute counts, and the time wasted every day can add up quickly if you don’t realize it. In order to be more intentional with your time, you can consider planning out your day’s priorities (优先考虑的事) the night before or the morning of. Try to find out what things in your life are distracting you, and try to stay away from those distractions to stop wasting valuable time. Secondly, make quality time a true value in your life. How you spend your time with someone or doing something is more important than the quantity (数量) of time you spend on something. Train yourself to be more present in your life instead of allowing one area of your life to influence another. For example, when you are spending time with your family, be present and in the moment rather than focusing your thoughts and attention elsewhere. We are all given the same 24 hours each day. By being more intentional with your time and valuing quality time, you’ll learn ways to make better use of it. Then you can improve your overall well-being and spend more time on what matters most in your life. 32. A person will most probably experience time poverty when ________. A. he spends his free time having fun with family B. he watches his favorite TV shows for long hours C. he has little time to do exercise on a busy workday D. he completes his project a week before the deadline 33. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A Effects of time poverty. B. Drivers of time poverty. C. Solutions to time poverty. D. Opinions about time poverty. 34. The words “be intentional with” in Paragraph 5 are closest in meaning to ________. A. strictly limit B. properly manage C. carefully save D. cheerfully spend 35. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To warn people of the risks of time poverty. B. To call on people to balance their work and life. C. To help people improve their time effectiveness. D. To remind people to spend more time achieving their goals. 第二节 阅读表达(共5题;每题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，简略回答问题。 Tips for Writing Better Articles Many of us don’t spend a lot of time improving our writing skills.

Many of us choose words in a hurry and don’t take the time to decide if they’re proper. Good word choices are necessary for good writing. Check facts. If we want people to believe what we write, we must make sure our facts are true. We should use dependable facts. Rewrite. A common problem is that we don’t like to rewrite. In fact, rewriting is the best way to find out and correct some mistakes, like grammar and spelling mistakes. Rewriting makes our writing better, though it takes more time and more work. Read aloud.
