27、nd if you dont know for sure, its very likely that you find out. There may be a watch on your wrist; there may be a clock on the wall, desk, or computer screen; or maybe youre riding in a car that has a clock in the dashboard（仪表板）.Even if you dont have a timepiece of some sort nearby, your body keep
28、s its own beat. Humans have an internal clock that regulates（调节）the beating of our heart, the pace of our breathing , the discharge（排出）of chemicals within our bloodstream, and many other bodily functions.Time is something from which we cant escape. Even if we ignore it, its still going by, ticking a
29、way, second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour. So the main issue in using your time well is, “Whos in charge?” We can allow time to slip by and let it be our enemy. Or we can take control of it and make it our ally.By taking control of how you spend your time, youll increase your chances of
30、becoming a more successful student. Perhaps more importantly, the better you are at managing the time you devote to your studies, the more time you will have to spend on your outside interests.The aim of time management is not to schedule every moment so we become slaves of a timetable that governs
31、every waking moment of the day. Instead, the aim is to permit us to make 5informed choices as to how we use our time. Rather than letting the day go by, largely without our awareness, what we are going to discuss next can make us better able to control time for our own purposes.56. The underlined wo

34、 how to have a good time D. how to make good use of timeBWe experience different forms of the Suns energy every day. We can see its light and feel its warmth. The Sun is the major source of energy for our planet. It causes the evaporation（蒸发）of water from the oceans and lakes. Sunlight also provides
35、 the energy used by green plants to make their own food. These green plants then provide food for all organisms（生物）on the Earth.Much of the energy that comes from the Sun never reaches the Earths surface. It is either reflected or absorbed by the gases in the upper atmosphere. Of the energy that rea
36、ches the lower atmosphere, 30% is reflected by clouds or the Earths surface. The remaining 70% warms the surface of the planet, causes water to evaporate, and provides energy for the water cycle and weather. Only a tiny part, approximately 0.023%, is actually used by green plants to produce food.Man
37、y gases found in the atmosphere actually reflect heat energy escaping from the Earths surface back to the Earth. These gases act like the glass of greenhouse in that they allow energy from the Sun to enter but prevent energy from leaving. They are therefore called greenhouse gases. When sunlight str
38、ikes an object, some of the energy is absorbed and some is reflected. The amount reflected depends on the surface. For example, youve probable noticed how bright snow is when sunlight falls on it. Snow reflects most of the energy from the Sun, so it contributes to the low temperatures of winter. Dar

41、arn from the passage that _.A. all living things on the Earth depend on the Sun for their food.B. a forest looks dark in winter because it absorbs solar energy.C. only 0.023% of the energy from the Sun is made use of on the Earth.6D. greenhouse gases allow heat energy to escape from the Earths surfa
