Then, during the first period, teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries.By closing time at 9.20 a.m., the shop usually sells 90 drinks."Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good J Christy McKinley, a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher.The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school.They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with their affairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers.Special-education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia.Not that it was easy. Chevalier's first problem to overe was product-related. Should schools be selling coffee? What about sugar content?Kenton County Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped. She made sure all the drinks, which use non-fat milk, fell within nutrition （营养）guidelines.The whole school has joined in to help.Teachers agreed to give up their lounge （休息、室）in the mornings.

The whip gets all of the attention, but it's mostly for show. In reality, it's the chair that does the important work. When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face, the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time. With its focus divided, the lion bees confused and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options, the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achieve （e.g. lose weight, start a business, travel more）一only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best, the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information. The end result is that we feel like we can't focus or that we're focused on the wrong things, and so we take less action, make less progress, and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn't have to be that way. Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face, remember this: All 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 successful people. If you have somewhere you want to go, something you want to acplish, someone you want to bee. take immediate action. If you're clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way. 32. Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A. To entertain the audience.B. To show off his skills.C. To get ready for a fight.D. To trick the lion.33. In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A. They feel puzzled over choices.B. They hold on to the wrong things.C. They find it hard to make changes.D. They have to do something for show34. What is the author's attitude towards the expert mentioned in Paragraphs?A. Tolerant.B. Doubtful. C. Respectful. D. Supportive.35. When the world is “waving a chair in your face”，you're advised toA. wait for a better chanceB. break your old habitsC. make a quick decisionD. ask for clear guidance第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）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。Training for a marathon requires careful preparation and steady, gradual increases in the length of the runs. 36, buy the best-fitting, best-built running shoes you can find. No one can say which brand will work best for you or feel best on your feet, so you have to rely on your experience and on the feel of each pair as you shop.
