includes small businesses, old homes on treelined streets, and new townhouses along the highway. It is about an hour's drive away from Washington, D．C.. But on the way to the capital, the highway passes the remains of closed businesses. The shops failed largely because of competition from shopping centers in larger cities.
Mr. Paulin says when some people drive into Indian Head and see the empty buildings, they just turn around and leave. He hopes to return the town to a friendly, successful place with natural beauty where people want to live and visit. “Many years ago, Indian Head was a booming(繁荣的) town, and that's what I want to get back，” he said.
Right now, the people who own the old, empty buildings are permitted to use their properties to reduce their taxes. Mr. Paulin wants to change the situation. He plans to charge owners a fee for empty buildings, and to increase the cost every year.
The owner of a local health food store where Mr. Paulin buys fruit drinks is also happy about the young mayor. Kelly Murphy says, “His age doesn't bother me. I know he's excited, and I feel when we get around him, we will feel excited too. We've lost that for many years in this town.”
Mr. Paulin began taking part in city politics at the age of 10. At that time, he urged town officials to put in signs urging drivers to be aware of pedestrians (行人). Mr. Paulin succeeded. Since then, he has been involved in the town government.
As a mayor, Mr. Paulin earns only $6,000 a year. Mr. Paulin lives at home and takes college classes online. His mother, Wendy Paulin, says her son accepts challenges and works on problems until he has a solution.
1．We can learn from the passage that Brandon Paulin's goal is to ________.
A. rescue the remains of closed businesses
B. develop Indian Head into a shopping town
C. bring Indian Head back to a booming town
D. become an extraordinary leader in America

A. many shop owners moved to Washington, D．C.
B. many customers preferred to buy things in large cities
C. fewer visitors chose to go there because of the highway
D. many shop owners became unfriendly to their customers
3．How does Brandon Paulin encourage the recovery of Indian Head?
A. By helping the owners to decorate their empty buildings.
B. By charging those who don't use their empty buildings.
C. By reducing taxes the owners should pay every year.
D. By setting a good example of buying fruit drinks.
4.What attitude does Kelly Murphy hold towards Brandon Paulin?
A. Supportive. B. Critical.

A. takes his income as a mayor seriously
B. cares for the local's food safety very much
C. always has a solution to the town's problems
D. became active in politics as a boy

How to Achieve a School Goal
Every person wants to achieve the goals set at the beginning of a new school year.
• __1__. When it comes to choosing your goal, ensure that it states exactly what it is that you want to achieve. If your goal seems too big, divide it into simpler, easier objectives.
• Write down your goal. You can write it in a journal or write it on a sticky note. Writing keeps your memory fresh and helps you clear up the clutter(杂乱) in your brain. Try to keep a journal or a diary.
• Break your goal down. By chopping your goal up into manageable sections, it allows you to mentally make your way through the goal until the end of a year. __2__. Therefore you're far less likely to give up or dodge(逃避) your goal by taking shortcuts or refusing to do anything.
• __3__. Turn off all distractions (使人分心的事物) like TV, the Internet, your phone and every other gadget you have at home. Keep emails, phone calls, texts, etc. to a minimum.
• Make it happen. __4__. Thinking is a useful start but thinking doesn't do the heavy work and thinking certainly won't move mountains. Go out every morning knowing what you need to do and then do it!
• Stay positive. Keep saying that you can do it. Stay motivated and be confident.
• Reward yourself. __5__. Every once in a while, if you complete a goal, treat yourself to an extra bar of chocolate or make time to read that book you've been wanting to read two months ago.
A. Don't think to yourself that over time you will manage to do it
B. Choose specific, realistic goals or even one single but very important goal

Music plays an important part in our daily life. Without music we cannot imagine what our life will be like. We like music because it brings us pleasure and makes us moved. It can help relax ourselves and forget the troubles for the moment.
I think music is a friend without whom our life will be boring and meaningless. I like music, especially the light music and classical music. When I am tired of working, I will listen to music, and it is usually effective.
In my opinion, music is necessary in our daily life. It can really make us free from pressure of life and make us believe we still have hopes and expectations.
