He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him.They all grabbed a shovel(铲)and began to shovel dirt into the well.At first,the donkey realized (64)whatwas happening and cried horribly.Then,to everyone's amazement,he quieted down.A few shovel loads later,the farmer finally looked down the well.He  (65)was astonished(astonish)at what he saw.With each shovel of dirt (66)that/whichhit his back,the donkey was doing something(67)amazing(amaze).He would shake it off and take a step up.
(68)Asthe farmer's neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal,he would shake it off and take a step up.Pretty soon,everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over (69)theedge of the well and happily ran off!
Each of our troubles is a steppingstone.We can get out of the deepest wells just (70)bynot giving up!Shake it off and take a step up.

14.Many people today do not enjoy grocery shopping,but the experience we have is still
many times better than that of the past.
Gone are the days when consumers paid higher prices for the advantage of a painfully
slow shopping experience.In addition to lower prices,supermarkets also offer shoppers added convenience and much quicker service.
In the old days,grocery shopping was quite a bit troublesome.Consumer-sized
packages did not exist,so a clerk had to measure out the exact amount you needed for
everything you bought.This system cost much labor and therefore was rather expensive.
On top of that,the entire experience was extremely time-consuming as,much like buying meat at a butcher shop,the number of shoppers that a store could serve at the same time was limited by the size of its staff.The high labor costs and poor efficiency (效率) were quite a problem for both the industry and its public.
The supermarket is a large departmentalized retail store,offering"one-stop shop"
convenience with housewares,magazines,beauty products,and much more in addition to
the food items sold by traditional stores.Need soap to go with your newspaper and bread?
The supermarket saves you time by providing all three items under one roof.Along with added convenience comes added efficiency.
Shoppers can now fetch what they want from shelves instead of waiting for service.
This in turn reduces the need for additional staff,helping owners to cut costs greatly and to pass the savings back to the consumer.In fact,supermarkets pass so much of the savings back that their margins are razor-thin-only l to 3percent-so to make a profit,they must rely on extremely high turnover rates and keeping operating expenses low,for example,by not offering delivery for one.The result is a quick and painless shopping experience with very reasonable prices.
24.Which of the following is listed as a disadvantage of traditional grocery stores?D
A.Fewer staff members.
B.Less shopping time.
C.Smaller trading profits.
D.Higher operating costs.
25.The underlined word"margins"meansC.
A.savings            B.prices               C,profits             D.expenses
26.Supermarkets don't offer delivery for one becauseA.
A.they want to keep costs down      
B.it isn't a good way to attract consumers
C.there is no demand for such a service  
D.it's the major cause of low efficiency
27.The passage mainly aims to.D
A.introduce the origin of the supermarket
B.discuss the disadvantages of traditional grocery stores
C.explain why the general public hate grocery shopping
D,outline the advantages of supermarkets over traditional groceries.
9.How to Think Positively
Quite often when we're going through a challenging time,we may get the advice to just"think positively!"(36)D Dose it mean to deny our pain or discomfort?Should we pretend everything is alright?Here is some advice about how to think positively.
Accept that you are here to grow.Life doesn't always go smoothly.Life's lessons can be difficult,but they are even more so if you approach them with avoidance(逃避).(37)A
Learn to turn lemons into lemonade(柠檬水).Look for the lessons to be learned in every situation.Instead of feeling sorry for yourself when things don't go your way,do what you can to make the best of the situation,Learn,instead,how to avoid falling into the same traps and making the same mistakes(38).G
Believe in yourself.(39)E Your dreams and goals are an indication of where your talents lie and and where your true potential is.Needless to say,you must develop your inherent(固有的)gifts.
Look for inspiration and support.Read about and study the successful stories of others.Many successful people have gone through challenging circumstances to get where they are.(40)C To help you stay positive and focused,get support from family and friends.
Finally,thinking positively doesn't mean being unrealistic,It means dealing with life and life's challenges as they are.It means being willing to do the work necessary to get on with the business of living fully.

A.If you see them as opportunities to become stronger,you are thinking positively and productively.
B.So next time a well-meaning person tells you to think positively,just smile back confidently.
C.Learning about their experiences can motivate and inspire you to achieve what you want to achieve.
D.Sometimes it's difficult to figure out exactly what that means.
E.Know that you have what is takes to succeed.
F.It just means that you won't let them stop you!
G.By doing so,you will undoubtedly benefit from it.

17.In the past decade the popularity of rock climbing has greatly increased,and so has the number of injuries.It has been estimated that rock climbing is now enjoyed by more than 9million people in the US each year.Study findings revealed a 65% increase in the number of patients that were treated in US emergency departments for rock climbing-related injuries between 1991and 2012.
The study,published in the online issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine,found that about 40,000patients were treated in US emergency departments for rock climbing-related injuries between 1991and 2012.The most common types of rock climbing-related injuries were fractures(骨折) and sprains (扭伤).The ankle was the most common body part to be injured (40%).Climbers in the study ranged in age from 2to 74,with an average age of 26.The study also found that women took up a quarter of the injuries.
Falls were the primary reason for injury with over three-quarters of the injuries occurring as the result of a fall.The severity of fall-related injuries had a lot to do with the height of the fall.Patients who were injured after falling from a height over 20feet were 10times more likely to be treated than patients who were injured falling from 20feet or lower.
"We found that the climbers who fell from heights higher than 20feet took up 70 percent of the patients treated for a rock climbing-related injury,"explained the study author Lara McKenzie,PhD,director at the Center for Injury Research and Policy at Nationwide Hospital."This trend,combined with the fact that rock climbers have a higher hospitalization rate than other sports and recreational injuries,demonstrates the need to increase injury prevention efforts for climbers."

21.Which body part is most likely to get injured for a climber?C
A.The arm            B.The knee        C.The ankle          D.The hand

A.About 40,000        B.About 30,000    C.About 20,000       D.About 10,000

A.the height of the fall.
B.the climber's age.
C.the climber's health condition      
D.the climber's climbing experience.
