七、阅读下面短文，根据短文内容判断句子的正误。

正确的涂“A”，错误的涂“B”。

（共5小题，每小题2分；计10分）In general, it’s hard to spend enough time in both concentrating on lessons and taking part in social activities. But I wanted to succeed in both. I knew this would be a challenge but I didn’t realize how difficult it was until my classes in the high
school began.
I got on well with other girls. After school, I often had ice cream with them first instead of finishing my homework before it was time to hand it in. I always finished it the next day between classes. I knew it wasn’t very good and my grades showed I was not hard-working enough. I realized that I needed to find some kind of balance.
So I created a timetable(时间表) that divided my time between studying and relaxing. It was a good idea but I was only able to follow it for a few days because it made me under too much pressure.
Later, I tried another plan. Each week I listed everything that I had to do during the week and the time I can spend doing my things. Then according to the things I had to do, I made another list of things that I could do if I had time.
It worked really well. Ever since I have never missed any important things. At the same time, I enjoyed my spare time a lot.
Planning my time has been challenging, but I continue to do it. I’m glad that I have learned to balance things and it has helped plan for what is coming after graduation.
71. At first, the writer always finished her homework between classes the next day.
72. The writer followed the first timetable only for a few days because it wasn’t a good idea.
73. In the second time plan, the writer listed all the things she shouldn’t do and should do.
74. According to the passage, learning to balance things is helpful to make plans for the future.
75. The best title of the passage is balancing study and play.

Text messaging, or simply ―texting‖, allowing people to send and receive messages on mobile phones, becomes very popular today.
The advantages of texting are clear. 1 If you have a few words to your friend’s birthdays or during some i mportant festivals, sending messages can be cheaper than phone calling. Texting helps to save time. 2 Texting can also help you to ―talk‖ to someone secretly if you don’t want others to hear what you are talking on the phone. These advantages are so amazing that many people are crazy about it.
However, texting has its disadvantages. 3 When your phone gets too full, you can’t receive any more messages. You may therefore miss some important information.
What’s more, if you don’t do texting properly, for examp le texting while driving or walking, it can be dangerous. It was reported that about 6,000 people were killed and half a million were injured for this reason each year. Two researchers at Stony Brook University, New York, did a research. 4 To reduce traffic accidents, about 32 countries have passed laws restricting(限制) the use of mobile phones while driving.
5 However, only when we use it properly, can we fully enjoy the fun it brings.

Jesse Brooks was a top student – a result of countless hours spent studying during college. She believed she would have no problem getting a job. However, after ten interviews and no job offers, she was starting to wonder what was wrong. ―At first I couldn’t understand it, I mean, I’m intelligent and hard-working, but why couldn’t I get a job?‖Though she had ―academic‖
intelligence(学术智慧), Jesse was missing the intelligence that many bosses are now looking for, that is, emotional intelligence.
Emotional intelligence(EI) is the ability to understand your own emotions and the emotions of people around you. More and more companies prefer EI tests to choose new staff. They have found that people with high EI get along better with their workmates and can behave better. This is good for the company.
For example, a French company, L’Oreal started to test the emotional intelligence of its staff. Their studies showed that staff with high EI scores sold products worth in total almost＄100,000 more than their workmates with low EI scores. Clearly, staff with high emotional intelligence are more useful to their companies.
Jesse thinks that her social skills did not develop well, because she spent much of her college life studying alone. In order to be a top student, she didn’t play any team sports or join any school groups. But actually, both of them can help develop social skills and emotional intelligence. Although Jesse might not have a high EI now, psychologists believe she can improve it.
