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。

If you want to have a garden full of life and motion, you have to attract some wildlife.

It’s not as difficult as it may sound. Your garden will attract insects, bugs, birds and mammals. 31 You will make yourself happy and at the same time you will provide a living space for these beautiful creatures. All you need to do is to follow this advice and you will have the garden of your dreams. If you think your garden has to be messy and untidy, you’re wrong. You need waves and long-living plants and strong curves of hedges(树篱) and paths. 32 It’s important to provide everything animals will need to live in your garden.

Provide food. 33 Planting native plants is what you have to do in order to attract wildlife. Plants like roses, honeysuckle and lavender attract different insects like bees and butterflies. Hummingbirds are fans of fuchsia and geraniums. Trees and shrubs that produce fruit, berries and seed are good sources of food for your little friends.

Provide some shelters for wildlife. You need to plant evergreen plants, too, because they are a suitable place for wildlife to take shelter.

Provide water. It’s important to provide water. Some animals can use even your pool to have a bath. Bees love shallow water. 34 It’s vital to change the water in your pond regularly to avoid breeding mosquitoes.

Provide a place for wildlife to raise young. A birdhouse or a pile of brush can be a nice place for wildlife to raise their young. It’s good to have climber-covered walls and fences to increase the possibilities not only for raising children, but also for feeding, nesting, roosting and hibernating.

35 Some species will overtake your garden and make it unfriendly. If there are wild

On peace of mind

Once, as a young man full of fancy, I undertook to draw up a catalogue of the acknowledged “goods” of life. As other men sometimes make a 36 of possessions they own or would like to own, I set 37 my desirables: health, love, beauty, talent, power, riches, and fame. When my catalogue was completed I 38 showed it to a wise elder who had been the trusted guide and 39 model of my youth. Perhaps I was trying to 40 him with my forward wisdom. 41 , I handed him the list. “This”, I told him confidently, “is the sum of mortal（凡人的）goods. If a man could 42 them all, he would be as a god.”

At the corners of my friend’s old eyes, I saw wrinkles of amusement 43 in a patient net. “An excellent list,” he said, considering it 44 , “well digested and set down in not-unreasonable order. 45 it appears, my young friend, that you have 46 the most important element of all. You have forgotten the one important aspect, without 47 each possession becomes a terrifying misery.”

“And what,” I asked, raising my voice with 48 , “is that missing aspect?”

“With a pencil he 49 my entire schedule. Then, having destroyed my dream structure at a single blow, he wrote down three words: 50 of mind. “This is the gift that God 51 for His special Proteges (被保护者).” he said.

“Talent and beauty He gives to 52 . Wealth is commonplace, fame not 53 . But peace of mind that is His final 54 of approval, the fondest symbol of His love, He

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g. lose weight, start a business, travel more) : — only to end up confused by all of the 56 (choose) in front of you and never make progress?

This upsets me 57 no end because while all the experts are busy 58 (debate) about which is the best, the people who want to improve their lives 59 (leave) confused. The end result is that we feel like we can’t focus or that we are focused on the wrong things, and so we take less action, make less progress and stay the same 60 we could be improving.

It doesn’t have to be that way. 61 you need to do is focus on one thing. You just need to get started. Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of 62 (succeed) people. If you have somewhere you want to go, something you want 63 (accomplish), someone you want to become…start right now. If you are clear about where you want to go, the rest world will 64 help you get there or get out of 65 way.

阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

There are many benefits of public transportation. For example, public transportation makes it easier for people to get where they want and need to go. It also helps people save money, as the cost of maintaining a working vehicle is often much more than the cost associated with public transportation. The frequency of traffic jams and accidents may also be reduced when a person uses public transportation.

One of the main benefits of public transportation is the fact that it makes it easier for people to get around. Without public transportation, many people — especially those without cars — would be limited in where they could go and what they could do. With public transportation, however, people can get to school and work, get to the grocery store and to doctors’ offices, and visit relatives, even if they do not own vehicles. Public transportation serves people of all ages and from all walks of life, ranging from families, including their children, to business people on their way to the office, to the elderly.

Often, people complain about the cost of public transportation when the rates are raised. When compared to the cost of buying a car, many people find that choosing to ride public transportation is a much cheaper option.

When public transportation is available, many people choose to use it instead of driving to work and school. This is true even of many people who own cars, as they may prefer to ride to work on a bus or train rather than deal with traffic jams and parking frustrations each day. When people make this choice, the result is less traffic on the roadways, which means fewer traffic jams and less pollution. In fact, the choice many people make to ride public transportation may even translate into fewer car accidents and vehicle-related deaths and injuries. Additionally, the use of public transportation also means less gas is consumed each year.
