题目内容

In your life，nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck．Everything        to test the limits of your soul．Without these small tests，life would be like a smoothly paved，     ，flat road to nowhere．Safe and comfortable but dull and pointless．
If someone        you or breaks your heart，forgive them for they have helped you        trust and the importance of being cautious to whom you open your heart to．If someone loves you，love them back        ，not only because they love you，but because they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and        to things you would have never felt or seen without them．
Make every day count．Appreciate every        and take from it everything that you possibly can，for you will never be able to experience it again．

One moment it was quiet and calm in the forest, the next, the air was charged with tension. The elephant had heard the distant alarm calls of animals and her mood suddenly changed. I urged the elephant deeper into the forest. We sounded like a forest fire --- cracking, snapping, trailblazing. But through all the noise came a sharp warning cry. The elephant stopped and we heard it again --- the tell-tale call of a spotted deer.
I looked quickly around the shadows of the forest. Rays of sunlight shone through tree branches, beneath which the patchwork（交错）of green plants and shadows-within-shadows would make tiger stripes（条纹）look more attractive. Apart from an occasional noise from the elephant’s stomach, the forest was silent.
Gradually, the tension slipped from our bodies. The elephant seized a nearby branch and put it into its mouth. I reached forward and gently moved my hand over the elephant’s neck; there was a soft part, free of wrinkles and hairs, behind her ear.
This was my fourth time to sense the aura of the forest in Corbett, although I saw no tigers in the end. Located at the foot of the Himalayan mountains, Corbett is home to about 135 Bengal tigers, but the forest seemed to be guarding their whereabouts（出没处）, a silent reminder of their secrecy and rarity. Still, I was happy enough touching the elephant behind the ear. If I had so desperately wanted to see a tiger, I could have gone to a zoo. After all, spotting tigers merely confirms their beauty; tracking them can make you aware of something more.
小题1:Which of the following was a clear signal of alarm?
A．The elephant stopped.
B．A spotted deer called.
C．The elephant seized a branch.
D．The forest was silent for a while.
小题2:The author begins his account of the tour in the forest mainly by _______.
A．describing various sounds
B．comparing different animals
C．listing different activities
D．introducing various plants
小题3:What does the underlined part “to sense the aura” most probably mean?
A．To see the diversity.
B．To enjoy the scenery.
C．To feel the atmosphere.
D．To experience the freedom.
小题4:How does the author feel after several visits to Corbett?
A．Seeing a Bengal tiger is quite thrilling.
B．It is very time-consuming to travel in Corbett.
C．It is really worthwhile to study the animals in Corbett.
D．The process of finding Bengal tigers is most appealing.
Mark Twain said that "habit is habit, and not to be flung（扔） out the window by anyone, but coaxed(劝诱) downstairs a step at a time. " The chances of successfully changing negative behavior    when you make gradual changes that give you time to _   _ negative patterns for positive ones.
On any given day, countless numbers of us get out of bed and _   _ to begin to change a given behavior "today." Whether it be exercising more, drinking less, managing time      or some other change in a negative behavior, we start out with high       . In a short time, however, a vast majority of people fail and are soon doing    it was they thought they shouldn't be doing.
After considerable research, some researchers believe that behavior changes usually do not       if they start with the change itself.      , they believe that we must        a series of “stages” to adequately prepare ourselves for that       change. Once you have analyzed all the factors that       what you do ,you must decide which behavior-change technique will work best for you.
According to the psychologist Albert Ellis, most     problems and related behaviors arise from irrational (不理性的) statements that people make to      when events in their lives are different from what they would like them to be. For example, suppose after doing       on an exam, you say to yourself, “I can not believe I failed that easy exam. I am so stupid.”By changing this irrational “catastrophic” self-talk into rational,   statements about what is really going on, you can increase the       that positive behaviors will occur.
Positive self-talk might be     as follows: "I really didn't study enough for the exam. I just need to prepare for the next     ”.
Such self-talk will help you to recover quickly from      and take positive steps to correct the situation. Some other technique like purposefully      or stopping negative thoughts and refusing to dwell on (沉湎于) negative images can also spare you wasted energy, time and emotional resources and move on to positive changes.

A person, like a commodity（商品）, needs packaging. But going too far is absolutely undesirable. A little exaggeration(夸张) will do no harm when it shows the person’s unique qualities to their advantages. To show personal attractiveness in a casual and natural way, it is important for one to have a clear knowledge of oneself. A skilled packager knows how to add art to nature without any signs of embellishment so that the person so packaged is not a commodity, but a human being, lively and lovely.
A young person, especially a female, shining with beauty and full of life, has all the favor granted. Youth however, comes and goes in a flash. Packaging for the middle-aged is primarily to hide the marks made by years. If you still enjoy life enough to keep self-confidence and work at pioneering work, you are unique in your natural qualities, and your attractiveness and grace will remain. Elderly people are beautiful if their river of life has been, through plains, mountains and jungles, running its course as it should. You have really lived your life, which now arrives at a self - satisfied stage of quietness and calmness with no interest in fame or wealth. There is no need to make use of hair dyeing. The snow-capped mountain itself is a beautiful scene of fairyland. Let your looks change from young to old in step with the natural ageing process so as to keep in harmony with nature, for harmony itself is beauty, while the other way round will only end in unpleasantness. To be in the company of the elderly is like reading a thick book of good edition, which attracts one so much that one is unwilling to part with it. As long as one finds where one stands, one knows how to package oneself, just as a commodity sets up its brand by the right packaging.
小题1:The underlined word in the first paragraph is closest to the word ______ in meaning.
A．decorationB．clarificationC．movementD．identification
小题2:It can be concluded from the text that ______.
A．people should be packaged at all ages
B．people should be packaged in a special way
C．elderly people also care about packaging
D．proper packaging makes people attractive
小题3:For the middle-aged, attractiveness ______ .
A．hardly existsB．is the strongest
C．comes from the insideD．comes from the appearance
小题4:According to the author, if you want to keep in harmony with nature, you should ______.[源
A．dye your hairB．make up at a young age
C．follow the ageing processD．give up fame and wealth
小题5:The underlined sentence means that elderly people ______.
A．are usually packaged like a finely-made book
B．experience a lot and have rich knowledge of life
C．do a lot of traveling and can give you much information
D．enjoy reading thick books about beautiful nature and fairyland
Growing up, I remember my father as a silent, serious man—not the sort of person around whom one could laugh. As a teenager arriving in America, knowing nothing, I wanted a father who could explain the human journey. In college, when friends called home for advice, I would sink into deep depression for what I did not have.
　　Today, at twenty-seven, I have come to rediscover them in ways that my teenage mind would not allow—as adults and as friends with their own faults and weaknesses.
　　One night after my move back home, I overheard my father on the telephone. There was some trouble. Later, Dad shared the problem with me. Apparently my legal training had earned me some privileges in his eyes. I talked through the problem with Dad, analyzing the purposes of the people involved and offering several negotiation strategies(策略).He listened patiently before finally admitting, “I can’t think like that. I am a simple man.”
　Dad is a brilliant scientist who can deconstruct the building blocks of nature. Yet human nature is a mystery to him. That night I realized that he was simply not skilled at dealing with people, much less the trouble of a conflicted teenager. It’s not in his nature to understand human desires.
　　And so, there it was—it was no one’s fault that my father held no interest in human lives while I placed great importance in them. We are at times born more sensitive, wide-eyed, and dreamy than our parents and become more curious and idealistic than them. Dad perhaps never expected me for a child. And I, who knew Dad as an intelligent man, had never understood that his intelligence did not cover all of my feelings.
　　It has saved me years of questioning and confusion. I now see my parents as people who have other relationships than just Father and Mother. I now overlook their many faults and weaknesses, which once annoyed me.
　　I now know my parents as friends: people who ask me for advice; people who need my support and understanding. And I have come to see my past clearer.

D．Caring and communicative.

Long long ago, a circle missed one piece of its own. The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its       piece. But because it was       and therefore could roll only very slowly, it       the flowers along the way. It       with the worms. It enjoyed the sunshine. It found lots of different pieces, but       of them fitted. So it left them all by the side of the road and       searching. Then one day the circle found a piece that fitted      . It incorporated the missing piece into itself and began to roll.       it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast,       fast to notice the flowers or talk to the worms. After it realized how different the world seemed when it rolled so quickly, it      , left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled slowly away.
The       of the story, I suggest, is that in some strange       we are more whole when we are missing something. The man who has       is in some ways a poor man. He will never know what it       like to nourish his soul with the dream of something      . When we accept that       is part of being human and when we can continue rolling       life and appreciate it, we will have       a wholeness that others can only desire, which , I believe, is _    God asks of us — not “Be perfect”, not “Don’t even make a mistake”,       “Be whole”.

When I was a law professor, a student reported that I made an error in grading his exam by giving him too many points. He was         and after thanking him for his honesty, I changed the          in my records. His beaming (欢笑的) face turned to         “You’re lowering my grade?” he said angrily. “I would never have come in          ……”
He didn’t finish the          but it was obvious that his display of honesty was false. He thought he’d have it all—praise and the          grade.
Several colleagues thought I should have let the higher grade stand        all I’d accomplished was to discourage him from being         in the future. And every time I tell this         , some people agree with this remark.
But I can’t see how I could give good          for worsening my mistake in grading by undermining (损害) the honesty of all my grades by failing to          an error. The grade itself would be a dishonest reflection of his          and it would have been         to other students. How could I possibly give a          a gift of an unearned grade?
I know voluntarily reporting an error in one’s favor is         , but, like          extra change, it’s the         thing to do. People with real honesty, hate to give up benefits as mush as anyone else. The difference is that for them a good conscience and reputation is reward enough to give reason for the cost of doing the right thing.
Perhaps         the student’s grade did discourage him from being honest in the future, but bribing (贿赂) him to be honest so that he does the right thing when it’s cost-free would have         him even more. The duty to be honest is         right and wrong, not risks and rewards.

I consider myself something of an expert on apologies. A quick temper has　　me with plenty of opportunities to make them. In one of my earlier　　, my mother was telling me“Don’t watch the　　when you say, ‘I’m sorry’. Hold your head up and look at the person in the　　, so he’ll know you　　it. ”

My mother thus made the key point of a(n)　　apology: It must be direct. You must never　　to be doing something else. You do not　　a pile of letters while apologizing to a person　　in position after blaming him or her for a mistake that turned out to be your　　. You do not apologize to a hostess, whose guest of honor you treat　　, by sending flowers the next day without mentioning your bad　　.
One of the important things we should do for an　　apology is a readiness to　　the responsibility for our careless mistakes. We are used to making excuses, which leaves no　　for the other person to　　us. Since most people are open-hearted, the no-excuse apology leaves both parties feeling　　about themselves. That, after all, is the　　of every apology. It　　little whether the apologizer is wholly or only partly at fault. Answering for one’s　　encourages others to take their share of the blame.
