I had a friend who visited me from out of town and I wanted to show him the CN Tower. It was one of the tallest structures on the earth. So I thought it would offer a (n)   36  sight.
We were standing in line for 45minutes to enjoy the    37   up to the watch point. When we got there, we went around the   38    of the tower and saw the hard wire fence 39     to the structure serving as a barrier. We went back inside to look for the glass floor that provided a direct view   40    . As soon as both of us   41    , we stopped before walking onto it. We found that our legs began to   42  . I stopped for a minute 你  who have stood on it before.”I began to  46    that step onto the glass floor. I didn’t look down —  47    not for a few minutes.
I walked on the    48   and looked around and thought about how   49   the experience was. I even found myself jumping up and down. There was no 50   , and it was certainly an illusion.
I considered how many things in our lives we 51    and exactly how many of them are actually illusions. I thought about all the things we   52    ourselves from doing because we have   53   ourselves into thinking there’s risk. I thought about all the things that I still have yet to do that appeared 54    . I was glad to discover that although fear isn’t a stranger to me, my desire to live a life without    55   has a much stronger pull.

“I’ve changed my mind.I wanted to have a telescope, but now I want my dad back.” Lucien Lawrence’s letter to Father Christmas, written after his father had been knifed to death outside his school gate, must have touched everyone’s heart.Lucien went on to say that without his father he couldn’t see the stars in the sky.When those we love depart from us, we cannot see the stars for a while.
But Lucien, the stars are still there, and one day, when you are older and your tears have gone, you will see them again.And, in a strange way, I expect that you will find your father there too, either in your mind or heart.I find that my parents, who died years ago, still linger (留连) in many of my dreams and that I think of them perhaps more than I ever did when they were alive.I still live to please them and I’m still surprised by their reactions.I remember that when I became a professor, I was so proud, or rather so pleased with myself that I couldn’t wait to cable my parents.The reply was a long time in coming, but when it did, all my mother said was “I hope this means that now you will have more time for the children!” I haven’t forgotten.The values of my parents still live on.
It makes me pause and think about how I will live on in the hearts and minds of my children and of those for whom I care.Would I have been as ready as Philip Lawrence has been to face the aggressors(入侵者), and to lay down my life for those in my care? How many people would want me back for Christmas? It’s a serious thought, which gives me pause.
I pray silently, sometimes, in the dead of night, that ancient cry of a poet “Deliver my soul from the sword and my darling from the power of the God.” Yet I know death comes to us all, and sometimes comes suddenly.We must therefore plan to live together, but live as if we will die tomorrow.We live on, I’m sure, in the lives of those we loved, and therefore we ought to have a care for what they will remember and what they will treasure.If more parents knew this in their hearts to be true, there might be fewer knives on our streets today.

A young boy was sitting in the back seat of the car eating an apple. Hw asked his father, “Why does my apple turn brown?” His father answered,”“When the skin is removed, air reaches the flesh of the apple causes oxidarion. This changes the apple’s molecular structure and results in a brownish color.”The boy asked,“Dad,what are you
talking about?”
I know how that boy feels. Sometimes I want answers to some of those confusing questions that we all meet with, such as how to get through difficult times or what to do in a tough situation. I just want to get it right.
The problem is that I don’t always have the answer I need. Nobody else seems to have them, either. So I go on making mistakes and think that I’ll never get it right.
Often I didn’t know what to do. I often made poor choices, but I gradually improved. Then I realized that I don’t HAVE TO always get it right. I don’t have to always know what to do all the time. All I really need to do is try my best, learn from my mistakes and go on.
Dr. Leo Buscaglia once said, “ No one gets out of this world alive, so the time to live, learn, care, share, celebrate and love is now. That would be pretty hard to do when you’re waiting for all the answers first.”
So you got it wrong. You made a mistake. So what should you do next? Forgive yourself and try again. You may not get out of this world alive, but you can get plenty of life out of this world if you are not too worried about always getting it right.

B.We must make right choices as often as possible.
C.People have many desires when they enter the world.
D.It is hard to lead a happy and satisfying life.
小题4:What can be concluded from the passage?

A man and his girlfriend just got married. The husband didn’t talk much but he was a steady man. The wife was pretty and dreamy.  Everyone could tell that the love they had for each other was true.
A few months later, the wife came to the husband with a proposal, “I read in a magazine about how we can  36  our marriage. Each of us will write a list of the things that we find a bit   37   with the other. Then, we can place them on the table to discuss how we    38   them together and make our life even happier.”
“Are you sure you are about to do this?” the husband sighed and    39  . So each of them went to a(n)   40   room and thought about the things that annoyed them about the other for the rest of the day.
The next morning, at the breakfast table, they decided that they would go over their    41   .
“I’ll start,” offered his wife eagerly. She    42   her list. It had many items on it, enough to fill 3 pages. She read all three pages to her husband and seemed to be quite pleased with her hard “work”. After hearing that, the husband stated   43  , “I don’t have anything on my list. I think that you are perfect the   44  that you are. I don’t want you to   45  anything for me.”
The wife, touched by his honesty and the depth of his love for and his   46  of her without any conditions, turned her head and wept. At that moment, she came to understand the saying: “Beauty lies in the lover's eyes”.
In life, there are enough time when we are disappointed, depressed and annoyed. We don’t really have to go  47  for them. We have a wonderful world that is full of beauty, light and promise. Why waste time seeking the bad, disappointing or annoying when we can look around us, and see the wonderful things before us? If you are accustomed to judging people, you have no time to love them.

When something goes wrong,it can be very satisfying to say,“Well, it’s so-and-so’s fault.” or “I know I’m late,but it’s not my fault;the car broke down.” It is probably not your fault,but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation,you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.
Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.
This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stop on for success.
小题1:According to the passage, winners        .
A.deal with problems rather than blame others
B.meet with fewer difficulties in their lives
C.have responsible and able colleagues
D.blame themselves rather that others
小题2:When your colleague brings about a problem, you should         .
A.ask a more able colleague for help
B.blame him for his lack of responsibility
C.tell him to find the cause of the problem
D.find a better way to handle the problem
小题3:When problems occur, winners take them as         .
A.excuses for their failuresB.barriers to greater power
C.challenges to their colleaguesD.chances for self-development
小题4:Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.A Winner’s Problem.B.A Winner’s Secret.
C.A Winner’s Opportunity.D.A Winner’s Achievement.


"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me."
You probably heard those lines in grammar school, but do you really agree that harsh (严厉的) or negative words do not harm us? Words have power. Surely we all have had our feelings hurt by something someone said.
We may not say words to hurt others, but the way we interpret (解释) them and how we say them may cause great harm. Here’s an example:
An ancient king dreamed all his teeth had fallen out. He sent for a wise man to explain his dream to him: the dream means that all your relatives will die and you will be left alone!
The king was very angry and threw the interpreter into prison. He then sent for another interpreter who said, "Congratulations! King! You will live many more years. In fact, you will survive all your relatives. Long Live the King!"
Both interpreters gave the same interpretation, but there was a huge difference in the way they said it.
Our speech must be understood by those who hear our words, but the way we say things and the intention behind them have as much power as the words themselves. Words can cause anger or appreciation. Which would you rather receive?
People who say harsh and negative things may not mean to harm, but have you ever known anyone who is a naysayer? They often look at the dark sides of things. They always see the glass as half empty rather than half full. How do you feel when you are around this type of person? Remember words have power. Use them wisely.
小题1:The author mentions the story of the ancient king to show that _____.
A.one dream sometimes has different explanations
B.good words can bring good luck to people
C.people should be careful when talking to a king
D.different ways of saying things have different effects
小题2:The underlined word "naysayer" in the last paragraph refers to a person who always _____.
A.has a negative attitudeB.likes to be praised
C.talks bigD.likes to repeat what others say
小题3:According to the text, how can people understand each other better?
A.By sharing different life experiences
B.By accepting different habits.
C.By properly using words
D.By recognizing different values.
小题4:The author wrote the last paragraph to ______.
A.show how the dark sides of things affect people
B.advise people to see and say things positively
C.show how harsh and negative words hurt people
D.advise people to stay away from negative people
小题5:The passage mainly talks about ______.
A.the power of wordsB.the cruelty of the king
C.how to understand othersD.how to build good relationships
My name is Nick Vujicic, an Australian who was born without any limbs(四肢). In recent years one of my most 36 videos on YouTube shows my skateboarding, surfing, playing music, and best of all, 37 hugs from all fields of great people.
All in all, those are pretty ordinary 38 that just about anyone can do, right? So 39 do you think that video has been viewed millions of times? My theory is that people are 40 to watch it because in spite of my physical limitations, I’m living 41 I had no limits.
People often think someone 42 a severe disability to be inactive, upset, maybe even crazy. But I’d like to 43 them by showing that I lead a very adventurous and fruitful life
Among the hundreds of 44 on that video, here’s one typical remark:” seeing a guy like this being happy makes me wonder why I feel 45 for myself sometimes -or feel not funny enough, or whatever. How can I 46 think thoughts like that when this guy is living without limbs and still being happy!?”
I found happiness when I realized that imperfect 47 I may be, I am the perfect Nick Vujicic. I’m designed 48 God’s plan. That’s not to say that there isn’t 49 for improvement. I’m always trying to be better so I can better 50 the world!
I do believe my life has no 51 . I want you all to feel the same way about your life, no matter what your challenges may be. As we 52 our journey together, please take a moment to 53 about any limitations you’ve placed on your life. Now think about what 54 would be like to be 55 of those limitations. What would your life be if anything were possible?

Attitude is an internal(内在的) state that influences the choices of personal action made by the individual(个人). Some researchers consider that attitudes come from differences between beliefs and ideas; others believe that attitudes come from emotional states. Here, we focus on the effects of attitudes upon behavior, that is, upon the choices of action made by the individual.
The kinds of actions taken by human beings are obviously influenced greatly by attitudes. Whether one listens to classical music or rock, whether one obeys the speed limit while driving, whether one encourages one’s husband or wife to express his or her own ideas-all are influenced by attitudes. These internal states are acquired(获得) throughout life from situations one is faced with in the home, in the streets, and in the school.
Of course, the course of action chosen by an individual in any situation will be largely determined by the particulars of that situation. An individual who has a strong attitude of obeying laws may drive too fast when he is in a hurry and no police cars in sight. A child who has a strong attitude of honesty may steal a penny when she thinks no one will notice. But the internal state which remains unchanged over a period of time, and which makes the individual behave regularly in a variety of situations, is what is meant by an attitude.
Attitudes are learned in a variety of ways. They can result from single events, as when an attitude toward snakes is acquired by an experience in childhood at the sudden movement of a snake. They can result from the individual’s experiences of success and pleasure, as when someone acquires a positive attitude toward doing crossword puzzles by being able to complete some of them. And frequently, they are learned by copying other people’s behavior, as when a child learns how to behave toward foreigners by observing the actions of his parents. Regardless of these differences, there is something in common in the learning and modification(修正) of attitudes.
小题1:According to the passage, attitudes        .
A.come from different situations in one’s life
B.are largely affected by one’s behavior
C.remain unchanged in one’s daily life
D.could be chosen according to one’s will
小题2:The author uses the examples in Paragraph 3 to show        .
A.people often make mistakes when they are not noticed
B.people with good attitudes may sometimes do bad deeds
C.particulars of a situation may influence an individual’s action
D.an individual may change his or her attitude fairly easily
小题3:Which of the following is TRUE about the learning of attitudes?
A.Attitudes are only learned through one’s success.
B.Attitudes learned in danger will last no more.
C.Copying others’ behavior is not a good idea.
D.Attitudes can be learned from one’s parents.
小题4:What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Differences of Attitudes.B.Nature(本质) of Attitude.
C.Choices of Attitudes.D.Changes of Attitude.
Three years ago, I had a job in a retail store (零售店). I    21   to talk to everybody and know what was going on in their    22  . I remember a girl who started    23   there a few months after me. We seldom talked but we always    24   each other and smiled.
She always smiled in a really happy way    25   one day when we got to work in the    26   department. She smiled as if she was the    27   girl in the world. I went up to her and asked, “What’s wrong with you?” She answered, “Why?” I said, “I could feel you’re very    28  , but you’re always trying to    29   it.”
Her mouth just dropped as if I had    30   her deepest secret, so we started talking. She told me    31   she was feeling unhappy and why she was trying to    32   that nothing was wrong. Time went by and we became good friends. She’d always tell me I had   33   her life in so many ways.
Today that girl is one of my best   34  . I really don’t know what I would do    35   her. She has been there for me in every    36   way a friend could be.
What I’m trying to say is that you never know    37   you’re helping yourself. I helped this girl never knowing that at the same time I was helping myself by finding a    38   friend.
So the next time you see a    39   and he needs someone who will    40   to him, wait and let him say what he wants to say. You never know, you might just end up helping yourself.
