阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Growing up in Arizona's rodeo (竞技)country, I was familiar with the events that come with traveling rodeos: bull riding, dressing and mutton busting. Mutton busting is like bull riding, but instead of bulls, they use sheep. And in place of the men, it's children between six and ten years old who try to hang on for eight seconds.
It took me all of five minutes to say yes to the idea of riding a sheep. Being seven years old, my decision-making ability was pretty limited. I figured I could ride a sheep as well as the next kid. Little did I know that I was in for a world of pain and embarrassment.
My nerves were shaking the day of the rodeo. I hated being in front of crowds. I didn't like getting dirty; I didn't even like sheep, which I thought of as just dirty and smelly. Yet there I was, getting ready to ride one for eight seconds in front of hundreds of people. I wanted to run out of the field and hide in the hot car until it was over. But by the time this idea occurred to me, it was too late. I was lifted away from my mother by a rodeo trainer and placed onto a platform.
My feet went into the narrow pen (羊圈) first. I felt my shoes touch the dirty floor of the pen. Once I was balanced on the lop of the sheep, the trainer let go and told me to lean forward. I did as he said. I could feel the animal's heart beating faster than mine. I realized that the poor sheep was even more frightened than I was.
Then the gate opened, and I quickly discovered that my hold was too weak. Within three seconds I had fallen off the sheep, and found myself face-down on the sun-baked earth. The sheep thought this was its time to take revenge (复仇),and attacked me from behind. There I lay, hat down, covered in dirt, with tears streaming down my face. I looked behind me to see my mother running to comfort me. “Stand up and show them you're okay,” she told me as she wiped the dirty tears from my face. I stood up, dirty and upset, waved my little hand, and walked out with my mother.
Sadly, I didn't win anything, not even the respect of these rodeo animals. I did find a new admiration for those little balls of wool, though.

More than 30 million people were displaced last year by environmental and weather-related
disasters across Asia, and the problem is likely to grow more serious as climate change exacerbates such problems, experts have warned.
Tens of millions of people are likely to be similarly displaced in the future by the effects of climate change, including rising sea levels, floods, droughts and reduced agricultural productivity. Such people arc likely to migrate in regions across Asia and governments must start to prepare for the problems this will create, warned the Asian Development Bank.
The costs will be high — about US S 40 billion — for adapting and putting in place protective measures — from sea walls to re-growing mangrove swamps (红树林沼泽)that have been cut down — that can help protect against the impacts of storm tides.
While large-scale climate-related migration is a gradual phenomenon, communities in Asia
and the Pacific are already experiencing the consequences of changing environmental conditions, including more frequent severe storms and flooding,\widespread crisis across the region in coming years if preparations are not made to deal with the current and probable future consequence.
Robert Dobias, climate change project chief at the Asian Development Bank, said that, at present, climate change is still a relatively small cause of migration, as economic causes are the most worrying and frightening, and as environmental disasters happen independently of global warning.
The Asian Development Bank warned that governments must start to make preparations now, because more extreme weather has already started to take effect, though the changes so far have not been so great in their impact. The bank is working on a report that will set out in detail the likely
B. he thought he could do well D. he found it very interesting
problems and suggest a range of potential policy changes to help deal with them.
25. Which of the following is closest in the meaning to the underlined word \?
A. Solves.
B. Prevents.
C. Worsens.
D. Reduces.
26. Which question is answered in the passage?
A. Why climate change happens.
B. What preparations will be made as protective measures.
C. How local governments help people to migrate after climate change. D. In which part of the globe climate-related migration is most likely to happen.
27. The Asian Development Bank helps deal with the migration problem by _____________________ .
A. working on a report
C. starting a climate change project

Every person has the same 24 hours in their day. While the majority of people end up complaining about not having enough time, or there being too much to do, the most effective individuals always manage their time in such a way that they are able to accomplish what they feel they need to do. Peter Drucker wrote, \is the scarcest resource, and unless it is managed, nothing else can be managed.\There are many ways in which effective leaders can more effectively manage their time. Among them: beginning with a clear vision and setting goals that have a date attached to them; using an agenda for each day's activities as well as for meetings, and so on.
Creating a practical vision permits a leader to focus clearly on his or her goals and what needs
to be done. This must be accompanied by the ability to control oneself to slay on topic. By organizing his or her goals, a leader can better manage the various aspects of leading, and this will lead to taking action in a clear-cut, less wasteful manner. When goals have a date attached to them, it both subconsciously and consciously creates urgency and improves focus and efficiency. A true leader will then invent a plan to decide what would be better handled by staff and what needs to be handled and needs the leader's personal attention and touch. By creating assignments and deadlines, there are clear-cut expectations and responsibilities, and for less time is wasted when this is done properly.
Leaders who understand the significance of sticking to an agenda always achieve more in less time. For example, most committee reports can and should be sent to attenders at meeting in advance for them to be able to review the contents, and the people in the meeting can then spend their time on implementation (执行),questions and so on, and not simply on reciting committee reports, which is largely wasteful. In addition, using an agenda gives an efficient flow to the meeting, avoiding much of the digression(离题) and repetitiveness. When leaders are organized, they are quite simply more productive. Although this may seem like a rather simple and obvious statement, the majority of those in leadership seem to lack that organizational ability.
B. changing its migration policy D. lending money to the governments
28. Effective leaders are likely to manage their time by
A. completing multiple tasks at a time B. arranging things in advance
C. taking action without hesitation D. making the most of free time
