| One of my friends did business with somebody else a few years ago. Their freighter(货船) was upturned by a storm 1 and their hope, together with their merchandise vanished 2 . He was so upset by the blow that he became 3 and couldn't 4 concentrate his attention. His _5_ who suffered the same catastrophe never lost heart. His days went on as 6 as before. My friend asked him how he could 7 it. He said:" You curse, you grieve, life goes on as usual; you are happy and enjoy yourself, the world 8 as usual. Which course do you follow?" That's how a person leads his life. When you are optimistic and in a good 9 , your future seems sunny and bright. 10 , when you are worried and have your mind 11 in sadness, your future will turn dark. The latter situation, if you allow it 12 , will cost you a great deal. You will lose 13 and courage to fight for the better. You will 14 the joyful things that come your way. They are really the most important, the most reliable part of links of our life. If they get loose and drop 15 , how can you keep happiness? There's a poem 16 : "Whether you are 17 or not, whether you like or dislike, show attention or 18 , flowers bloom luxuriously all the same." Yes, that's 19 . Just as flowers keep blooming, fine days are passing away day after day. How to spend your days - joyfully or 20 - will entirely depend on yourself. | |||

| If You Make a Mistake, Don't Worry! Yeah, you'll want to forget about them, but mistakes can be useful. Making a mistake doesn't mean it's the end of the world. In real life you have to grow and mature, and with that comes some growing pains. You know you should have studied hard but you went out with some friends instead. You know you should have put the money into the bank for a rainy day instead of spending it on all kinds of things you didn't need. It's the growing pains called mistakes that most people make when they are growing up. Face them. You are going to make them. Learn from them. All of the people you wish to copy, such as all the experts in your business field, have made mistakes. They'll continue to make mistakes for all their successes. One of the major differences between people like them and the vast majority(大多数)of others is that they don't let their mistakes stop them. Instead, they use their mistakes as learning tools. At the very least, when you make a mistake, you'll know what not to do. And you can help others by warning them of the mistakes you've made. Don't let mistakes stop you from doing anything. Learn from them, don't hide in a closet. Facing up to your mistakes now and later will mature. What mistakes are you making right now? Take a look at anything you might be doing wrong. Take a step back and evaluate your situation, then fix whatever needs to be corrected. Then move forward. Always remember your mistakes to remind yourself of what not to do for the future. |
| 1. Why does the writer say mistakes can be useful? |
| A. Because you can get some growing pains. B. Because experts also make mistakes. C. Because you can mature by facing and learning from mistakes. D. Because next time you know that money shouldn't be wasted. |
| 2. Which statement is true according to the writer? |
| A. Before you make any mistake, you had better lock the closet in your room. B. Keep your mistakes in mind in order not to make the same mistakes again in the future. C. Don't go out with some of your friends any more. D. Forget your mistakes and move forward. |
| 3. When we make any mistake next time, we should do the followings except _ __. |
| A. Think about the reason why we make the mistake. B. Try to correct the mistake. C. Tell others not to make the same mistake as you do. D. Be careful not to do anything. |
| 4. From the text, we can infer that __ ___. |
| A. facing mistakes, some people lose heart B. mistakes can be of no use C. mistakes can be called growing pains D. Put away money when it is rainy |

| Are morning people born or made? In my case it was definitely made. In my early 20s, I rarely went to bed before midnight, and I would almost always get up late the next morning. But after a while I couldn't ignore the high relationship between success and rising early. On those rare occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity(效率)was almost always higher. So I set out to become a habitual early riser. But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that noise and go back to sleep. Eventually some sleep research showed me that I was using the wrong strategy. The most common wrong strategy is this: You assume that if you're going to get up earlier, you'd better go to bed earlier. It sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail. There are two main schools (流派) of thought on sleep patterns. One is that you should go to bed and get up at the same time every day. The second school says you should go to bed when you're tired and get up when you naturally wake up. However, I have found both of them are wrong if you care about productivity. If you sleep at set hours, you'll sometimes go to bed when you aren't sleepy enough. You're wasting time lying in bed awake and not being asleep. If your sleep is based on what your body tells you, you'll probably be sleeping more thanyou need. Also, your mornings may be less predictable if you're getting up at different times. The solution for me has been to combine both methods. I go to bed when I'm sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time. So I always get up at the same time (in my case 5 am), but I go to bed at different times every night - sometimes at 9:30pm, and other times at midnight. Most of the time I go to bed between 10-11 pm. However, going to bed only when I'm sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning is my way. If you want to become an early riser, you can try your own. |
| 1. According to the passage, the underlined phrase refers to ________. |
| A. people who stay up until the next morning. B. people who get up early in the morning. C. people who feel sleepy in the morning. D. people whose productivity is the highest in the morning. |
| 2. Why did the author want to become a habitual early riser? |
| A. Because he/she wanted to form the habit of going to bed early and getting up early. B. Because he/she had found that his / her productivity was higher when he/she got up early. C. Because he/she wanted to see which of the two main schools of thought on sleep patterns was right. D. Because he/she was told the high relationship between success and rising early. |
| 3. The author experienced all the following EXCEPT ________. |
| A. going to bed after midnight B. getting up early occasionally C. pressing off the alarm to go on sleeping D. asking scholars for advice on sleeping habits |
| 4. The passage is mainly about ________. |
| A. how to become an early riser B. how to have good sleep C. wrong strategies for getting up early D. main schools of thought on sleep patterns |

| "A good book for children should simply be a good book in its own right," says Mollie Hunter. Born and brought up near Edinburgh, Mollie has devoted her talents to writing primarily for young people. She firmly believes that there is always and should always be a wider audience for any good book whatever its main market is. In Mollie's opinion it is necessary to make full use of language and she enjoys telling a story, which is what every writer should be doing. "If you aren't telling a story, you're a very dead writer indeed," she says. With the chief function of a writer being to entertain (让人愉快), Mollie is indeed an entertainer. "I have this great love of not only the meaning of language but of the music of language," she says. " This love goes back to early childhood. I've told stories all my life. I had a school teacher who used to ask us what we would like to be when we grew up and, because my family always had dogs, and I was very good at handling them, I said I wanted to work with dogs, and the teacher always said 'Nonsense, Mollie, dear, you'll be a writer.' So finally I thought that this woman must have something, since she was a good teacher and I decided when I was nine that I would be a writer." This childhood intention is described in her novel, A Sound of Chariots, which although written in the third person is clearly autobiographical (自传体的) and gives a picture both of Mollie's ambition (理想) and her struggle towards its achievement. Thoughts of her childhood inevitably(不可避免地) brought thoughts of the time when her home was still a village with buttercup meadows(草地) and strawberry fields-sadly now covered with modern houses. "I was once taken back to see it and I felt that somebody had lain dirty hands all over my childhood. I'll never go back,"she said. "Never.""When I set one of my books in Scotland,"she said,"I can recall my romantic (浪漫的) feelings as a child playing in those fields, or watching the village blacksmith at work. And that's important, because children now know so much so early that romance can't exist for them, as it did for us." |
| 1. In Mollie Hunter's opinion, which of the following is one sign of a poor writer? |
| A. Being poor in life experience. B. Being short of writing skills. C. The weakness of description. D. The absence of a story. |
| 2. What do we learn about Mollie Hunter as a young child? |
| A. She didn't expect to become a writer. B. She didn't enjoy writing stories. C. She didn't have any particular ambitions. D. She didn't respect her teacher's views. |
| 3. In comparison with children of earlier years, Mollie feels that modern children are . |
| A. more intelligent(聪明的) B. better informed(见多识广的) C. less eager to learn D. less interested in reality |
| 4. What's the writer's purpose in this text? |
| A. To describe Mollie Hunter's most successful books. B. To share her enjoyment of Mollie Hunter's books. C. To introduce Mollie Hunter's work to a wider audience. D. To provide information for Mollie Hunter's existing readers |

| Ray's wedding had gone off smoothly. Everyone seemed to have had a good time. A few people had too good a time; they went home with designated (指派的) drivers. All evening, the gift table remained unguarded. Who would steal anything, Ray thought. He had never heard of such a thing happening at a wedding. But his best friend Aaron said there was a first time for everything. He strolled out regularly from the inside festivities (庆祝) to check on the gift table, making sure no one suspicious was hanging around it. Ray and Julia went on a 3-week honeymoon to Italy right after the wedding. When they got back, they opened all the gifts and sent out thank-you notes. But there was one problem. A married couple that used to be good friends had apparently given nothing. This surprised Julia, because Walt and Mary said they were thrilled to be invited. And, they actually seemed to have had a great time at the wedding. Frankly, Ray didn't even care if they hadn't given a gift. He just needed to know whether to send a thank-you note. Ray called Aaron. Aaron said maybe Walt had left an envelope on the gift table like Aaron had. "Yes, but we got your envelope with the cash inside," Ray said. "Maybe my envelope looked too thin, and some thief thought Walt's envelope looked nice and fat." Aaron asked Ray if he had looked everywhere for Walt's gift. Had he called up the wedding site to see if anything had been left behind? Ray said that he had looked everywhere and made a lot of calls that were fruitless. Ray didn't know what to do. If he sent Walt and Mary a thank-you note for a gift they hadn't given, they would be insulted. If he didn't send them a thank-you note for a gift they had given, they would get angry. "What would you do?" Ray asked. Aaron said he would call Walt up and tell him the problem. "You can't go wrong with simply being honest," Aaron said. "Oh, yes, you can," Ray contradicted(反驳)him. "Sometimes it's best to let sleeping dogs lie." But he thought about it, and finally decided that Aaron was right. He called Walt and told him the problem. Walt said that yes, he had given an envelope. In fact, the envelope contained $500 cash. "$500?!" Ray asked. "That's a lot of cash, Walt!" Walt admitted that it was, but he had gotten a fat raise(加薪) early that year and Ray's was the only wedding he'd been to in quite a while. Ray thanked him very much, and apologized sincerely for someone stealing Walt's generous gift. Walt told him that it was "only money". When Ray told Aaron about Walt's gift, Aaron laughed. "The only thief at the wedding was Walt! I quit playing cards with him last year because I caught him cheating. And it was only a $10 pot! I'm sure I told you about that." "Yes, you did tell me," Ray said. But, of course, he had to send Walt a thank-you note anyway. |
| 1. Which of the following is true according to the passage? |
| A. Nobody checked on the gift table all evening. B. Walt had surely gotten a fat raise early that year. C. Stealing had never happened at a wedding. D. Aaron looked on honesty as the best policy. |
| 2. The underlined word "insulted" in Paragraph 5 probably means ________. |
|
A. deeply impressed |
| 3. What kind of person is Ray? |
| A. Considerate and polite. B. Faithful and experienced. C. Outgoing and determined. D. Friendly and optimistic. |
| 4. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage? |
| A. A Wedding Party B. The Theft at the Wedding C. The Wedding Gift D. A Secret at the Wedding |

| Not long ago, people thought babies were not able to learn things until they were five or six months old. Yet doctors in the United States say babies begin learning on their first day of life. Scientists note that babies are strongly influenced by their environment. They say a baby will smile if her mother does something the baby likes. A baby learns to get the best care possible by smiling to please her mother or other caregiver. This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings. One study shows that babies can learn before they are born. The researchers placed a tape recorder on the stomach of a pregnant(怀孕的) woman. Then, they played a recording of a short story. On the day the baby was born, the researchers attempted to find if he knew the sounds of the story repeated while in his mother. They did this by placing a device in the mouth of the newborn baby. The baby would hear the story if he moved his mouth one way. If the baby moved his mouth the other way, he would hear a different story. The researchers say the baby clearly liked the story he heard before he was born. They say the baby would move his mouth so he could hear the story again and again. Another study shows how mothers can strongly influence social development and language skills in their children. Researchers studied the children from the age of one month to three years.The researchers attempted to measure the sensitivity of the mothers. The women were considered sensitive if they supported their children's activities and did not interfere(干涉) unnecessarily. They tested the children for thinking and language development when they were three years old. Also, the researchers observed the women for signs of depression(抑郁症). The children of depressed women did not do as well in tests as the children of women who did not suffer from depression. The children of depressed women did poorly in tests of language skills and understanding what they hear. These children also were less cooperative and had more problems dealing with other people. The researchers noted that the sensitivity of the mothers was important to the intelligence (智力)development of their children. Children did better when their mothers were caring, even when they suffered from depression. |
| 1.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the factor(因素)that influences intelligence development in babies? |
| A. The environment. B. Mother's sensitivity. C. Their peers(同龄人). D.Education before birth. |
| 2. What is the purpose of the experiment in which newborn babies heard the stories? |
| A. To prove that babies can learn before they are born. B. To prove that babies can learn on the first day they are born. C. To show mothers can strongly influence intelligence development in their babies. D. To indicate early education has a deep effect on the babies' language skills. |
| 3. Which group of children did the worst in tests of language skills? |
| A. The children of depressed mothers who cared little for their children. B. The children of women who did not suffer from depression. C. The children of depressed but caring mothers. D. Children with high communication abilities. |
| 4. What is the main idea of the passage? |
| A. Scientific findings about how babies develop before birth. B. Scientific findings about how the environment has an effect on babies' intelligence. C. A study shows babies are not able to learn things until they are born or six months old. D. Scientific findings about how intelligence develops in babies. |
