9.Self-confidence is an attitude which allows individuals to have positive yet realistic views of themselves and their situations.Self-confident people trust their own abilities,have a general sense of control in their lives,and believe that,within reason,they will be able to do what they wish,plan,and expect.Having self-confidence does not mean that individuals will be able to do everything.Self-confident people have expectations that are realistic.Even when some of their expectations are not met,they continue to be positive and to accept themselves.
People who are not self-confident depend too much on the approval of others in order to feel good about themselves.They tend to avoid taking risks because they fear failure.They generally do not expect to be successful.They often put themselves down and tend to ignore compliments(赞美)paid to them.By contrast,self-confident people are willing to risk the disapproval of others because they generally trust their own abilities.They tend to accept themselves; they don't feel they have to conform (从众) in order to be accepted.
Many factors affect the development of self-confidence.Parents'attitudes are crucial(关键性的) to children's feelings about themselves,particularly in children's early years.When parents provide acceptance,children receive a solid foundation for good feelings about themselves.If one or both parents are much too critical or demanding,or if they are overprotective and discourage children's moves toward independence,children may come to believe they are unqualified or inadequate.
Surprisingly,lack of self-confidence is not necessarily related to lack of ability.Instead it is often the result of focusing too much on the unrealistic expectations or standards of others,especially parents and society.Friends'influences can be as powerful or more powerful than those of parents and society in shaping feelings of one's self.Students in their college years reexamine values and develop their own identities and thus are particularly sensitive to the influence of friends.

C.College students are the least self-confident group in society.
D.Parents'protection prevents children's self-confidence development.
24.What might the author most probably continue to talk about in the following passage?C
A.How we can become more acceptable.
B.Lack of self-confidence has many side effects.
C.What one should avoid in building self-confidence.
D.What self-confident children usually get from parents.

10.Yash GuptaYash Gupta has worn glasses for many years.When they broke one ay and he was not able to wear thenm to school,he had a big problem.(36)E  At the end of the day,he realized that he had learned nothing that day!
Yash quickly got his glasses fixed,but his experience changed his life.He realized that there were probably many kids around the world that did not have proper glasses to help them learn in school.(37)B  He found out that 13 million children around the world don't have proper glasses to help them see in class.Instead of just shaking his head at this problem,he decided to do something about it.(38)C   Its goal is to help find glasses for other kids and teens that need them.
He created Sight Learning in 2011 and since then he has changed the lives of thousands of young students around the world!The organization has tried to provide eyeglasses to students who need them but cannot afford them.It has collected and given away over $1,000,000 worth of eyeglasses.(39)GAs Dr.Seuss,a famous writer,once said,"Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,nothing is going to get better.It's not."(40)A   He has taken action to not only improve his own life,but those of others.

A.Yash is such a teenager.
B.So,he did some research.
C.Yash started a small organization,Sight Learning.
D.Here is an easy way to help Yash and Sight Learning.
E.He could not see much of what was going on in his classroom.

14.Teachers want to get along with students.(71)E  The clashes (冲突) can happen between any two people.
Show your teacher that you want to make the situation better.(72)F  By handling a problem like this,you learn something about how to get along with people who are different from you.
(73)G  Just like your parents have business relationships with the people they work with or the people who deliver the mail to your house,kids also can have these kinds of relationships.They are different from your family relationships and friendships,which are built on affection and love.In a business relationship,each of the two parties gets something out of the relationship,but does not necessarily need to be good friends or like each other a lot.(74)B
When you act this way,and remember that you're not the only kid in the class,you are helping your teacher.(75)C  Teachers also like it when students follow directions and when they learn and obey the rules of the classroom.For instance,there may be rules about listening when another student is talking,or about taking turns,or about raising your hand when you want to say something or ask a question.

A.So they will be happy when you do well in exams.
B.In other words,they need to"get down to business".
C.Your teacher is likely to notice this and appreciate it.
D.However,they may develop friendship with each other.
E.But teachers and students sometimes have personality clashes.
F.Then he or she will probably do everything possible to make that happen.
G.Your relationship with a teacher is often your first chance to develop a"business relationship".

19.Dad taught me a lot about life,especially its hard times.I remembered one of his(36)Cone night when I was ready to quit (退出) a political campaign (运动) I was losing,and wrote about it in my diary.
Tired,feeling the months of  (37)A,I went up to my study to make some notes.I was looking for a pencil in the back of my desk drawer when I (38)A up one of Dad's old business cards that he was so proud of:Andrea Cuomo Italian-American Groceries-Fine Imported Products.Then I thought about how he(39)C with difficult situation.A lot of pictures appeared into my mind,but one scene came sharply into view.

Less than a week after we moved in,there was a terrible storm,we came home from the store that night to find the spruce (42)B almost totally from the ground and thrown onto the street.When my brother Frankie and I saw the spruce,our hearts(43)C.But not dad's.

20."How are you?"is a nice question.It's a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other.But"How are you?"is also a very unusual question.It's a question that often doesn't need an answer.The person who asks"How are you?"hopes to hear the answer"Fine",even if the person's friend isn't fine.The reason is that"How are you?"isn't really a question and"Fine"isn't really an answer.They are simply othe ways of saying"Hello"or"Hi".
Sometimes,people also don't say exactly what they mean.For example,when someone asks"Do you agree?"the other person might think,"No,I disagree.I think you're wrong…"But it isn't very polite to disagree so strongly,so the other person might say"I'm not sure."It's a nicer way to say that you don't agree with someone.
People also don't say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people.For example,many talks over the phone finish when one person says"I have to go now."Often,the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse:"Someone's at the door.""Something is burning on the stove."The excuses might be real,or not.Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn't want to talk any more,but it isn't polite to say that.The excuse is more polite,and it doesn't hurt the other person.
Whether they are greeting each other,talking about an idea,or finishing a talk,people don't say exactly what they are thinking.It's an important way that people try to be nice to each other,and it's part of the game of language.

29.When a person says"I have to go now""Someone's at the door",the person may beA.
A.giving an excuse
B.hurting someone's feeling

D.asking you a question
30.What does the rule of the game of language probably mean?A
A.Be polite.
B.Don't disagree with people.
C.Always say what you mean.
D.Never say exactly what you are thinking.
31.When a person in the United States asks"How are you?he or she wants to hear"D".
A.How are you?B.Hello.C.I don't know.D.Fine.
32.When a person disagrees with someone,it is polite to say"B".

C.I'm sure I disagree.
D.No,I disagree.
