When someone asks me what my goals are for the coming year，I usually don't know how to reply.Of course I， as most people do， want to see an improvement in my grades.However， this year， I'm①hoping for something different.

Through the course of my school life，I've gradually②developed a new understanding of the word “prioritization优先次序”.The first thing I wish to get in Grade 1 is the ability to③manage my time better.I'll surely become busier with the coming semester，and proper organization is important.From school clubs to④academic competitions， everything should be⑤set up in a way that doesn't influence my health，which⑥leads me to my second goal.

My mother has always told me to put my health first，so in the future， I hope to be both⑦physically and mentally healthy.A person can't study without having the energy to do so.In order to stay energetic，they must put their health first， no matter how busy they are， or how much work they have to complete.

And finally，I hope that I won't be discouraged by my failures and never give up on my dreams.I hope that I'll have the courage to try new activities and clubs.I hold that my final goal can apply to every student around the world.We should all respect one another's likes and dislikes， and focus on each other's strengths， not our weaknesses.Everyone should strive努力to take part in all of life's opportunities.

Albert Einstein once said， “Life is like riding a bicycle.To keep your balance， you must keep moving.” In my case， it's⑧the other way around.In order to keep moving，I must⑨keep my balance—the balance between studies and activities， efficiency and procrastination拖延症， academics and health，passions and dislikes.The new journey is going to be a hard one， but once I⑩establish these goals，I believe I will make it through to the end.

评判阅读

Step 1 结构提取

掌握语篇的宏观结构有利于从整体上快速感知语篇大意，培养快速阅读的方法。本选文语篇结构如下：

T i t l e S e t p r a c t i c a l g o a l s f o r t h e f u t u r e T o p i c(P a r a.1) I'm h o p i n g f o r s o m e t h i n g d i f f e r e n t a b o u t m y g o a l s f o r t h e c o m i n g y e a r.T h e f i r s t t h i n g I w i s h t o g e t i n G r a d e 1 i s t h e a b i l i t y t o m a n a g e m y t i m e b e t t e r.B o d y C o n c l u s i o n P a r a.5 P a r a.2 P a r a.3 I n a d d i t i o n，I h o p e t o b e b o t h p h y s i c a l l y a n d m e n t a l l y h e a l t h y.P a r a.4 A n d f i n a l l y，I h o p e t h a t I w o n't b e d i s c o u r a g e d b y m y f a i l u r e s a n d n e v e r g i v e u p o n m y d r e a m s.I h o p e t h a t I'l l h a v e t h e c o u r a g e t o t r y n e w a c t i v i t i e s a n d c l u b s.T h e n e w j o u r n e y i s g o i n g t o b e a h a r d o n e， b u t o n c e I e s t a b l i s h t h e s e g o a l s， I b e l i e v e I w i l l m a k e i t t h r o u g h t o t h e e n d.

点石成金：快速提取文章的宏观结构需关注文章首尾段、每段的开头结尾，以及复现的词汇。

Step 2 段内思维拓展

阅读文章时，在关注语篇宏观结构的基础上，要分析段内的行文逻辑及语义关系，从而理清段内的思维拓展方式和脉络。读者需要区分“事实”与“观点”，还要区分主题句、支撑句及结论句，并把握句际关系（句与句之间的关系，常见的有并列、转折、解释，以及因果等9种）。

H o p e 1 t h e a b i l i t y t o m a n a g e t i m e b e t t e r A c t i o n 1 p r o p e r o r g a n i z a t i o n i s i m p o r t a n t.；s e t u p e v e r y t h i n g i n a p r o p e r w a y H o p e 2 b e b o t h p h y s i c a l l y a n d m e n t a l l y h e a l t h y A c t i o n 2 m u s t p u t h e a l t h f i r s t H o p e 3 w o n't b e d i s c o u r a g e d；h a v e t h e c o u r a g e t o t r y n e w a c t i v i t i e s a n d c l u b s A c t i o n 3 r e s p e c t o n e a n o t h e r's l i k e s a n d d i s l i k e s； f o c u s o n e a c h o t h e r's s t r e n g t h s， n o t o u r w e a k n e s s e s；s t r i v e t o t a k e p a r t i n a l l o f l i f e's o p p o r t u n i t i e s

点石成金：每段的段内主题句后，都需要有明确具体的支撑句。

Good morning，everyone!I feel honored to be here to share with you my opinions on what to learn in Senior High school.

In the coming three years，you will meet great challenges in school life.I think you're hoping for something different about your goals.The first thing you can wish to get in Grade 1 is that you should learn to work efficiently.Personally，effective methods can help us adapt to new school lives quickly and make progress in academic performance.I also hope that you can develop a good habit，which is of importance in previewing lessons，getting actively involved in class and reviewing what has been taught after class.In addition，I hope that you can learn how to get along with others in school.Respect teachers and be friendly with classmates,and you will create a harmonious atmosphere with sincerity and faithfulness.And finally，it is wise of you to take part in sports and other outdoor activities frequently，which are very helpful to build up your body and enrich your school life.

The new journey is going to be a hard one，but I believe that with your great efforts，you will realize these goals and enjoy a colorful and fruitful life here．

Thank you!
