   "Look around． Do you see the fern（蕨类植物） and the bamboo? When I planted their seeds, I took good care of them．The fern quickly grew from the earth．      nothing came from the bamboo seed． During the following three years, the fern grew more plentiful． And     , nothing came from the bamboo seed． But I did not quit on the bamboo． Then in the fifth year a       sprout（新芽） emerged from the earth． Compared to the fern it was      small and insignificant． But just 6 months later the bamboo      to over 100 feet tall． It had spent the five years growing     ． Those roots made it strong and gave it     it needed to survive． I wouldn’t give any of my creations a challenge it could not     ．”

He said to me .”All this time you have been struggling , you have ___been growing roots . I would not quit on the bamboo.____will I ever quit on you .Don’t ____yourself with others .The bamboo had a different ____from the fern .Yet they both make the forest beautiful .Your time will ___ .You will rise high!”

   "How high should I rise?" I asked．

   "How high will the bamboo rise?" He asked     ．

   "As high as it can?" I     ．

   "Yes," He said． "Give me glory      rising as high as you can．"

   I left the forest and bring back this story． I hope it can help you see that God will never    on you． Never regret a day in your life． Good days give you happiness． Bad days give you    ． Both are necessary to life．

If you’re planning on traveling, there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.

First of all, always check and double-check departure (行程) time. It is amazing how few people really do this carefully. Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten. My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10:50. When I arrived at the airport, the clerk at the departure desk told me that my flight was closed. Therefore, I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting.

The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards, it is still important to have at least a little of the local currency (货币) with you when you arrive in a country. This can be necessary if you are flying to a place few tourists normally visit. A few years ago I was sent to Tulsa, Oklahoma. I flew there from London via (经由) Dallas, with very little time to change planes in between. I arrived there at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed. The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi and because I had no dollars, I offered to pay in pounds instead.

“Listen! I only take real money!” the driver said angrily. Luckily I was able to borrow a few dollars from a clerk at the hotel, but it was very embarrassing (令人难堪的).

The third and last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave. I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suits and raincoats in May, when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester, to places like Athens, Rome or Madrid, where it is already beginning to get quite warm during the day.

40. According to the passage, it’s obvious that ______.

A. the author learns some rules of traveling from his own experience

B. the author doesn’t plan his trips or journeys carefully

C. Englishmen like to wear heavy suits wherever they travel

D. the American taxi driver never travels to England

41. What should you make sure first before setting off?

A. When you will leave.      B. Where you will go.

C. How you will travel.        D. Whom you will go with.

42. What does the underlined word “there” in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A. London.            B. Manchester.            C. Tulsa.        D. Dallas.

43. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The author tells people to choose warm places as their travel destinations.

B. You should remember to take credit cards when traveling.

C. You should know more about the weather of the place you’ll visit.

D. You should take enough change when you travel to another country.

“No man is an island”is a well-known line from John Donne’s Devotion, written more than three hundred years ago．Even now people still agree with him．No one can live a completely isolated life．Without other people, life became empty and sad．We all need to have friends.

For some of us, though making friends is not difficult, feeling shy, we may not want to make the first move．It is also difficult at times to keep the friends we already have.

There are many books about friendship, but Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People, written in 1936, is the most famous．This “how to” book about getting along with other people became a best seller．It was later put into 28 languages.

Dale Carnegie’s advice seems to be simple, but can his advice help you? Do you need to change the way you act? Here is the list of advice from his book:

（1）Be friendly and polite.

Always greet with a smile．Begin with “excuse me ” or “would you please” when       ．Remember to say “thank you” and try to be as helpful as you can.

（2）Go out of your way to be nice.

Find some time to do special things for other people．Making some soup for a sick neighbour may seem like a little thing to you, but it will make your neighbour feel a lot better.

（3）Remember names.

They say that the sweetest music to a person’s ears is the sound of his or her own name.

（4）Be open-minded.

Try to understand other people’s ways and ideas and learn something from them.

（5）Listen patiently．When someone is talking to you, look at him or her, listen carefully and say something when necessary．
