Lose – Win is weak. It’s easy to get stepped on. It’s easy to be the nice guy. It’s easy to give in, all in the name of being a peacemaker.

A girl named Jenny once told me about her 　1 in the world of Lose Win during her eighth – grade year before she finally broke 　2 .

My 　3 with my mom all started one day 　4 she said to me sarcastically (讽刺地), “Wow, you’re surely lively today.” I 　5 it so literally (字面地) that then and there I decided to close myself off from her and never 　6 back to her. So every time she would say something 　7 I disagreed with her, I would just say, “Okay, 　8 you want, Mom.” But it really got cold quickly. And my 　9 began to build. One night I talked to my mom about the school homework and she said, “Oh, that’s 　10 ” and then went back to mopping the floor.

“Don’t you even 　11 ?” I thought. But I didn’t say anything and stormed off. She had no idea I was 　12 upset. She would have been willing to talk to me had I 　13 her how important it was to me.

At last, I just blew up. “Mom, this has got to 　14 . You tell me everything you want me to do and I just do it because it’s 　15 than if fighting. Well, I’m sick of it.” This all came as a 　16 to her.

After my blow – up, it was really rocky for a while. We felt like we were 　17 all over in our relationship. But it’s getting better all the time. We discuss things now and I always 　18 my feeling with her.

If you adopt Lose – Win as your basic 　19 toward life, then people will wipe their dirty feet on you. You’ll also be 　20 your true feelings deep inside. And that’s not healthy.

A beggar, carrying a shabby(破旧的) old wallet, was begging alone from house to house. As he complained about his 36 , he kept wondering that people who lived in 37 houses should always be unsatisfied, 38 rich they might be, and they should go so far as to 39 all they have.

“Here, for example,” he said, the former master of this house succeeded in trading, and made himself very rich. By then, instead of stopping, and handing over his 40 to another, and spending the rest of his years 41 peace, he took to(从事) equipping ships. He expected to get mountains of gold; but the ships were 42 , and his treasures were lost. Now they all lie at the bottom of the sea, and he has found his 43 disappeared like those in dreams. In short, examples of this are 44.

At this moment Fortune suddenly appeared to the beggar and said, “Listen! I have long wished to 45 you. Here are a lot of gold coins I have found. Hold out your wallet, and I will fill it with them; but only on this condition: All shall be gold that falls into the wallet, but if 46 of them falls out of the wallet to the ground, it 47 become dust. Consider this well. I have warned you I shall 48 keep my word. Your wallet is old, don’t fill it 49 its power.” The beggar was almost too overjoyed to breathe. He 50 felt the ground below his feet. A stream of coins were poured 51 it. The wallet soon became rather heavy.

“Is that 52 ?” “Not yet,” “Isn’t it 53 ?” “Never fear.” “Consider, you are a millionaire.” “Just a little more, just 54 a handful,” But at that moment the wallet broke, the gold coins 55 dust and Fortune disappeared. The beggar had nothing but his empty wallet and remained as poor as before.

Fish have different personalities which change as they experience life’s highs and lows．according to British biologists．

Researchers identified different“personalities” in their fish by observing the boldness or shyness of individuals，according to The Nature．Like people，some fish are very confident in the face of novelty(新奇事物)or conflict；while others are silent and fear．

The scientists selected particularly bold and shy rainbow trout，and tested whether they changed their outlook depending on what life threw at them．They arranged some fish to fight and others to watch to see how both the participants and observers responded to victories and defeats．Winning or losing a fight，or even watching fellow fish overcome the difficulties influenced the future behavior of the creatures studied in the lab．

The researchers made fish compete with much larger or smaller opponents．to ensure that they would win or lose their fights．These bold fish that won their fights tended to be even bolder when later presented with a novel food item；losing their fight caused them to be much more cautious．

Fish also learn by watching others．Bold fish watching a shy fish exploring a mystery object were much more nervous when later given a novelty item for themselves．

Predictably，shy fish that won a fight also gained more confidence，but surprisingly，shy fish that lost their fights also grew bolder when exploring strange new food，Sneddon said，adding that this could be due to what she calls a“desperado effect”(亡命徒效应)．

The new research suggests that animals can gradually adapt their personalities．The results echo the effects that life experience can have on human．

1.What does．the underlined word“creatures’’probably refer to?

A．Fish． B．Participants． C．Observers． D．Researchers．

2.The third paragraph of the text is mainly about—————．

A．a conclusion of the research

B．an explanation of fish characters

C．a statement of the experiment

D．a description of fish fights

3.What can we know from the research?

A．Bold losing fish become—e bolder when presented With a novel food item．

B．Losing their fights causes the bold fish to be much more courageous．

C．Bold fish watching a shy fish exploring a mystery get less nervous．

D．Shy fish losing fights grow more confident in exploring new food．

4.What’s the main idea of the text?’

A．Fish have stress in the fierce fights．

B．Fish care about winning or losing a fight．

C．Fish have adaptable personalities．

D．Fish can learn a lot by watching others．
