Five Major Differences between Successful and Unsuccessful People
Last year,Dave Kerpen,author and chief executive of Likeable Local,received a postcard that illustrated the traits and behavior of successful and unsuccessful people.He said,"The postcard has had a profound effect on me,reinforcing values I believe in and reminding me on a daily basis of the attitudes and habits that I know I need to embrace in order to become successful."
The postcard,shown below,points out five big differences between successful and unsuccessful people.
1.Successful people embrace change.Unsuccessful people fear it.Embracing change is one of the hardest things a person can do.With the world moving fast and technology accelerating at a rapid speed,it's imperative that we embrace these changes and adapt,rather than fear them,deny them,or hide from them.(36)B
2.Successful people want others to succeed.Unsuccessful people secretly hope others fail.When you're in an organization with a group of people,in order to be successful,you all have to be successful. (37)E
3.Successful people accept responsibility for their failures.Unsuccessful people blame others.(38)GBut they always accept responsibility for their failures.Blaming others solves nothing; it just puts other people down and absolutely no good comes from it.
4.Successful people give others all the credit for their victories.(39)ALetting people have their moments to shine motivates them to work harder,and,consequently,makes you look better as a leader or teammate.
5.Successful people continuously learn.Unsuccessful people fly by the seat of their pants.The only way to grow as a person,professional,and leader is to never stop learning.(40)FIf you just fly by the seat of your pants,you could be passing up opportunities that prevent you from learning and growing.
Besides the five major differences above,there are other differences:successful people exude joy,share data and information,and read every day,while unsuccessful people exude anger,hoard data and information,and watch TV every day.

A.Unsuccessful people take it from others.
B.Successful people are able to do just that.
C.Unsuccessful people talk about successful people.
D.You can learn and become more knowledgeable as you read.
E.The most successful people want to see their co-workers succeed and grow.
F.You can be a step above your competitor and become more flexible because you know more.
G.Truly successful leaders and business people experience both ups and downs in their lives and careers.
5.To write a great news story,you have to make sure it is correct,relevant (相关的) and fresh.
For a start,all the information in a story must be correct.Not only the spelling and grammar,but also the facts.
Any mistakes that appear (出现) in a story can get a newspaper into big trouble.
For example,if a newspaper said that Yang Liwei was the first man to go into space,it would be wrong.He wasn't the first.The newspaper would probably lose lots of readers because of that mistake.
A news story is not only correct,but also relevant to its readers.People are mostly interested in news that happens near to them.That is why you care more about what happens at your school that at American schools.It is also why newspapers in Beijing don't talk about much news in Shanghai or Hong Kong.
Finally,news must always be fresh.When you pick up your evening newspaper,you want to read about news that happens that day.You don't want to read about news from last week!
So,now you know what makes a good news story.Have a good look at our newspaper and see if it is full of good news.you can try writing a news story for our newspaper like a real reporter.

56.The writer mentionsB main factors (因素 )to make a news story really great.
A.two
B.three
C.four
D.five
57.According to the second paragraph,the correct information in a story includesC.
A.translation and facts.
B.spelling and pronunciation.
C.spelling grammar and facts.
D.Listening to English more can help you realize your dream.
58.According to the writer,newspaper in Liaocheng should talk much about news inA
A.Liaocheng   
B.Hong Kong.
C.Shanghai.
D.Beijing.
59.Which of the following is true?C
A.A small mistake can't get a newspaper into trouble.
B.A lot of people like reading about news from last week.

D.People are mostly interested in news that happens far away from them.

2.I am always nervous when I get an email from my parents with"FYI (For Your Information)".My parents are in their late 70s,and while they are quite healthy for their ages.I worry about what messages they are going to give me.
I got such an email in September from my father.He sent an email from my cousin who told that her father,my uncle Reese,had passed away.The news made my mind go blank though I have met him less than a dozen times in my life,because Reese was the first of my parents'siblings (兄弟姐妹) to die,and I was simply not ready for that.
The memorial service was set in Florida,and I quickly decided I needed to go.I needed to be there for my father,and I needed to go for myself.Reese is about nine years older than my father,and I started to do the math in my head.I know that doesn't make sense,but I will do anything to reason that I still have a lot of time before I will be in my cousin's shoes.
Reese's memorial service was small with only family and perhaps a dozen of his friends.The funeral (葬礼) was attended by an even smaller number,and then,the family gathered at a nearby bar to look at old photographs found among Reese's possessions when he died.
As we drove back to the Orlando International Airport,I thought about how I am not sure what my parents want,not only in their memorial services,but also how they want to be remembered and where they want to be laid to rest.These are going to be difficult conversations,but I know I need to have them.Maybe not right now,but we do need to open the discussion at some point.It may feel too early,but I trust my parents will know that when adult children raise these questions,we do it out of love to honor their lives and their wishes.

23.What do we know from the third and fourth paragraphs.C
A.A get-together was held at home.
B.Reese's friends didn't appear.
C.The author went to Florida without much hesitation.
D.Quite a few people attended the funeral.

9.As a child,I was generally happy,singing and dancing to my favorite songs,smiling and laughing with my friends and family.But as far back as second grade,I noticed a"darkness"about me.I didn't enjoy participating in many things.
In middle school things in my life began to get even worse.I began withdrawing from everything I once enjoyed.I was always tired.Everything was horrible.Finally,midway through eighth grade,I was told I had a chemical imbalance,diagnosed (诊断) with clinical depression,and had to take medicine.It took months for me to feel the effects of the medicine.
When I began to feel happy again is when I realized that I had to take the responsibility for getting better myself,rather than relying on medicine.Aristotle said,"To live happily is an inward power of the soul,"and I believe that this quote describes what I had to do to achieve happiness.Happiness is a journey.Everyone seems to need different things to be happy.
"The essentials (要素) to happiness are something to love,something to do,and something to hope for,"a quote from William Blake sums up what I believe people need to realize to be truly happy in life.People need love; I feel they need their family and their friends more than anything else in the world.People need work to do,something to make them feel they are making a difference in the world.People need to know that more good is to come in the future,so they continue to live for"now"instead of constantly worrying about the bad that could come.Love and hope are happiness.

28.What do we know about the author in Paragraph 2?D
A.He hated going to sleep because he couldn't sleep well.
B.He spent months recovering from the clinical depression.
C.He was diagnosed with clinical depression in Grade Seven.
D.He suffered a great deal from clinical depression.
29.Who helped the author to be happy again?C
A.The author's friends.B.Aristotle.C.The author himself.D.William.
30.Which of the following about being truly happy is unnecessary in the author's opinion?B
A.Love.B.Ambition.C.Hope.D.Work.
31.What may be the best title for the text?A
A.The Essentials to Happiness

C.Everyone Needs to Be Happy 
D.Happiness Is Love.

The art of growing dwarf trees,or"bonsai"(盆景)as their Japanese planters call them,is increasing in popularity in the United States.Growing bonsai can make a fascinating hobby for anyone who enjoys plants and creating beautiful effects with them.(36)B
In growing bonsai,in fact,one must be careful in choosing the type of tree,as the growing conditions are unusual(37)GVarieties of pines with small needles and hardwood trunks are especially suitable.(38)AThis is necessary because the major growth of bonsai is kept confined(被限制) to the tree's trunk and leaves,not its root system-a process quite unlike what is done with other plants.Another thing the bonsai-grower must do is to trim (修整) the roots and branches of the tree periodically (定期地).Unless this is done,the plants will not have the proper proportions(比例) and will look unnatural.(39)FThe last thing one must do is to be careful to keep the tree well-watered.Because bonsai are grown in smaller-than-usual containers,they often need more water than ordinary houseplants do.
As can be seen from the above,the art of bonsai-growing is one which requires a certain amount of time and effort.(40)EImagine having such a tree in your living room and passing it down through several generations of your family.That is exactly what bonsai-growing is all about:establishing a tradition of beauty which lasts for years and years and is a symbol of the beauties of the natural world.

A.Then one must be careful in choosing the size of the container.
B.How can we meet the goal of making such a kind of art?
C.Why do so many people take a fancy to the art of bonsai-growing.
D.But one must get well prepared before starting bonsai-growing.
E.The satisfactions that growing bonsai brings can be great,however.
F.The ideal for bonsai plants are trees just like normal trees in everything but size.
G.Not all species of trees can be made into bonsai.
