A group of adults, highly succeeded in their jobs, went to visit their old professor. Soon they began to __31__ the stress in work and life.
The professor went to the kitchen and returned __32__ a pot of coffee and all kinds of cups — crystal (水晶的), glass, plastic; some nice looking, some plain looking; some __33__, some cheap. And he told them to help __34__ to the coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said, “I’ve noticed that all the nice looking expensive cups were __35__, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is __36__ for you to take only the best for yourselves, that is the root of your __37__ and stress.
You know that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee, __38__ you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, __39__ you consciously went for the best cups.
Now consider this: Life is the coffee. The jobs, money and __40__ in society are the cups. They are just __41__ to hold life, and the type of cup does not change the quality of our life. Sometimes, by __42__ only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee that God has __43__ us. God offers us the coffee, not the cups. Please enjoy your coffee!”The happiest people don’t have the best of everything. They just make __44__ of everything.

I went back to China as soon as school was over at the end of June. And I returned to Canada on August 17th.
It’s      to go back to China this summer, because of the A（H1N1）flu. Everybody seemed to be       . The easiest thing for us to do was to wear masks（口罩）on the plane, as my mom suggested. However, it was not      to wear a mask for ten hours. I decided to put the masks into my bag        wearing them.
Everything seemed OK     the flight. I saw only five people wear masks all the time. When we arrived in Beijing, some      came into the plane and took our temperature. Fortunately,       had a fever. Therefore, I was able to get home on time.
However, everything went wrong after I got home. I became sick, with a sore throat and a fever because I had not     my mom’s words. Luckily, I just had a common       . while I was sick in bed, I thought that if I had listened to my mom at first, I      would have never caught the cold.
It’s always wise to listen to your mom’s suggestions.

When I was a foreign teacher in China, every day I taught English to my students and they taught me about China. One day the topic turned to saying “ I love you”. I was shocked to learn that not one of my students has said this to their mothers, nor had their mothers said it to them. “Does your mother love you?” “ Of course,” they answered.
“ How do you know?” was my logical question. They responded that their moms cooked and always told them what they were doing wrong to show their caring. I was stunned. So mom’s cooking and criticizing read out as “I love you”. “Then do you say‘I love you’to her?” They agreed that getting good grades, followed by good jobs would be how they showed their love.
I come from a culture where most people are expressive enough, so I repeated these questions in classes over time. Gradually, I began to get different responses. Some of them had exchanged those sentiments with their moms.
One of my favourite stories of change came from a girl. When she came home from university, her mother met her at the door and hugged her. This had never happened before, but her mom said, “ Now that you have gone, I have more time to myself. I noticed that in some places mothers and children hug each other and decided it was a good idea and that I would begin hugging you.”
In my family we all say “I love you” a lot. While it is true that we often say the words without having great depth of feelings at that moment, it is almost like a blessing we give each other. Those three words carry a world of meaning, even when said as a greeting, but most especially if they are the last words we say to or hear from those we love.
小题1: Chinese people prefer to show love by __________.
A．saying “I love you”B．cooking

C．She is glad that she has more time to herself.

小题4: Which of the following statements is RIGHT?
A．Chinese people never show love to their mothers.
B．Chinese students express love to their mothers by studying hard and trying to get good jobs.
C．In foreign countries people have great depth of feelings to say “I love you”.
D．People from different countries will never understand each other.
小题5: What’s the main idea of the passage?
A．Say “I love you” more to your family.
B．Say “I love you” a lot to Chinese people.
C．Say “I love you” as a greeting to others.
D．Say “I love you” without great depth of feelings.

My name is Ben Mansury. I’m fifteen years old and study in a middle school. In school, I never join in any group discussion or stage (舞台) program. So, I never knew what stage nervousness was.
Our community (社区) has a weekly “Students Ideas” program. About two years ago, I received a(n)   1   from the chairman of our community. He invited me to the “Students Ideas” talk the next morning to speak to the group.
The time between his call to the next morning was like several weeks for me. The whole night, I could not sleep. Many   2   were coming. One of them was to call the chairman, with regret, and tell him that I could not come. But finally, I thought, if I missed this   3  , the community would never invite me again to any of their programs. So, I decided to go.
I reached the hall in time. When my turn came and I started, my heartbeat increased and my mouth went dry. I wasn’t even able to   4   the words on the paper properly. I had no idea where I was standing and what I was talking. That was the day when I   5   my biggest weakness: public speaking.

People often complain they face too many problems. Every day and everywhere there are problems. Many times we find it hard to stay happy. When one problem is solved, another one comes up.
People have money problems, work problems, family problems, health problems..... the list goes on. And we usually think that people who are happy and successful are having fewer problems than us. Look at the successful people we often mention. They have money they need, they have jobs they love, they have good friends, they have obedient(孝顺的) kids, they have the successful business, they have loving families etc. Everything goes well with them. That is why they are happy and successful. But in fact, the more successful you are, the more problems you have to face. More success means more challenges they have to face, and more success means more risks they have to take.
Young and old, rich and poor, successful and unsuccessful, educated and uneducated, all have problems. The difference is that their problems are different from each other.  Rich and successful have big problems. Poor and unsuccessful have small problems. Still they all have problems which they can face. Successful people are successful just because they are ready to face challenges larger than ordinary people.
Winning the US elections(选举) makes Obama very happy. As a new US president, he has to face bigger challenges. He has to be more careful about his work he does, or he will lose his position(位置). Looking at him, we may say he is lucky, happy and successful. But, I think, as the US president, he has more pressure than an ordinary person.
小题1:You will be a/an ______ person if you are afraid to face more challenges.
A．ordinaryB．successfulC．famousD．educated
小题2:From this article we know that President Obama ______.
A．has fewer problemsB．was born in a rich family
C．takes more risksD．is a successful businessman
小题3:The main idea of this article is _______.
A．why poor people are always poor
B．how many problems people usually have to face
C．how lucky and happy President Obama is
D．how to deal with problems in life
Bringing a giraffe into the world is a tall order. A baby giraffe is born 10 feet high and usually lands on its back. Within seconds it rolls over its legs under its body. Then the mother giraffe rudely introduces its children to the reality(现实) of life.
In his book, A View from the Zoo, Gary Richmond describes how a new-born giraffe learns its first lesson.
The mother giraffe lowers her head long enough to take a quick look. Then she puts herself directly over her child. She waits for about a minute, and then she does the most unreasonable(不合情理的) thing. She throws her long leg and kicks her baby, so that it’s sent sprawling(四脚朝天).
When it doesn’t get up, the process is repeated again and again. The struggle to rise is important. As the baby giraffe grows tired, the mother kicks it again. Finally, it stands for the first time on its shaky(摇晃的) legs. Then the mother giraffe kicks it off its feet again. Why? She wants it to remember how it got up. In the wild, a baby giraffe must be able to get up as quickly as possible to stay with its group, where there’s safety.
Another writer named Irving Stone understood this. He spent a lifetime studying greatness, writing stories about such men as Michelangelo, Vincent van Gogh, Sigmund Freud, and Charles Darwin.
Stone was once asked if he had found something that runs through the lives of all these great people. He said, “I write about people who sometime in their life have a dream of something. They’re beaten over the head, knocked down and for years they get nowhere. But every time they stand up again. And at the end of their lives they’ve realized some small parts of what they set out(着手) to do .”
