I have been blessed with the opportunity in my life. It took the near-death experience of my dad to make me realize that my purpose in life is to        others. My dad suffered from leukemia(白血病) in 1998.        the pain and treatment that he put up with inspired me to be a more kind and        person. I realized life is just too          and it was time for me to make some changes — do the things in life that I wanted to do without making        why I couldn’t do them.
My dad        a bone marrow transplant(骨髓移植) operation, and after that he was able to reuse his own “cleaned” marrow, so a donor(捐献者) was not needed. That was excellent        because donors who are a match are hard to come by. That          me to become a bone marrow donor and hopefully help someone else one day. I also         money for the cancer patients. Yet, I was not satisfied with just that. I had to do more, I        blood every other month and seek opportunities to do other acts of kindness daily. The opportunity, some days, presents itself very        and some days I have to seek it out. Either way, it comes.
I would like to        one of my favorite quotes（名言）with you all:
“In an average lifetime, a person        about sixty-five thousand miles. That’s two and half times around the world. I wonder        your steps will take you. I wonder how you’ll use the rest of the        you’re given.”
I want to use my miles to create foot prints of love in this world.

There are two kinds of physical activity which require special training. The first demands exact careful movements of the muscles. This kind of activity must be strictly controlled because even a slight movement in the wrong direction will lead a mistake. To type quickly, for example, a person needs training; the slightest movement of a finger in the wrong direction may cause a spelling mistake. A dancer who has to dance on the point of her shoes or turn around on one foot must be trained for a long period of time before she can sense her own center and balance herself. You may have seen a girl walking on a rope across an empty space, which, too, requires a lot of practice.  
The second kind of physical activity needs greater strength or extra effort. Most of us get tired if we try to run half a mile without stopping, but a specially-trained person can do this without much effort. Three years ago, some scientists carried out experiments, which produced meaningful and unexpected results. They wanted to find out whether a certain amount of physical exercise would injure those suffering from heart problems. They selected some male patients and trained them in continuous bicycle riding. They were surprised to find that the harmful effect of given amount of physical effort was actually less on the hearts of these trained patients than on those of the patients who were not similarly trained. This is important because it shows that regular physical exercise enables us to make better use of the oxygen we breathe in and that this training, in fact, reduces the amount of work our hearts do. Many tasks which are hard for untrained people are not hard at all for trained people.
小题1:The first kind of physical activity must be strictly controlled because _________.
A．a mistake in the wrong direction is dangerous to the fingers
B．a wrong movement in a direction will cause no mistakes
C．a movement in the wrong direction will cause a mistake
D．a slight movement of a finger will lead to a mistake
小题2:What must a dancer do before she can balance herself?
A．She must dance on the point of her shoes.
B．She must receive long-time training.
C．She must turn around on one foot.
D．She must perform again and again.
小题3:The experiments done by some scientists showed that ________.
A．some male patients were asked to ride bicycles regularly in the experiments
B．the physical exercise had more harmful effect on the hearts of the untrained patients
C．the physical exercise was harmless to the male patients with heart trouble
D．the physical exercise could be helpful for the patients to take in more oxygen
小题4:What would be the best title for this text?
A．Training Our BodiesB．Physical Activities
C．Movement TrainingD．Extra Body Effort

Tail Spin

Two dolphins race around in a big pool in the Ocean Park. The smaller dolphin, Grace, shows off a few of her tricks, turning around and waving hello to the crowd. The most amazing thing about her, however, is that she's even swimming at all. She doesn't have a tail.
Grace lost her tail as a baby when she got caught up in a fish trap. When the dolphin arrived at the Ocean Park in December 2005, she was fighting for her life. “ Is she going to make it？” Her trainer, Abbey Stone, feared the worst. Grace did make it—but her tail didn't. She ended up losing her flukes and the lower part of her peduncle.
Over the past six years, she has learned to swim without her tail. Dolphins swim by moving their flukes and peduncle up and down. Grace taught herself to move another way—like a fish! She pushes herself forward through the water by moving her peduncle from side to side.
The movements put harmful pressure on Grace's backbone. So a company offered to create a man­made tail for her. The tail had to be strong enough to stay on Grace as she swam but soft enough that it wouldn't hurt her.
The first time Grace wore the artificial tail, she soon shook it off and let it sink to the bottom of the pool. Now, she is still learning to use the tail. Some days she wears it for an hour at a time, others not at all. “The new tail isn't necessary for her to feel comfortable，” says Stone, “but it helps to keep that range of motion (动作) and build muscles (肌肉)．”
Now, the dolphin is about to get an even happier ending. This month, Grace will star in Dolphin Tale, a film that focuses on her rescue and recovery. Her progress has inspired more than just a new movie. Many people travel from near and far to meet her. Seeing Grace swim with her man­made tail gives people so much courage.
小题1:When Grace first arrived at the Ocean Park, her trainer worried about her ________.
A．physical build
B．potential ability
C．chance of survival
D．adaptation to the surroundings
小题2:A man­made tail is created for Grace to ________.
A．let her recover faster
B．make her comfortable
C．adjust her way of swimming
D．help her perform better tricks
小题3:The story of Grace inspires people to ________.
A．stick to their dreams
B．treat animals friendly
C．treasure what they have
D．face difficulties bravely
Optimism and pessimism are both powerful forces. Each of us must choose which we want to       our future and our expectations. We can choose to laugh or cry, bless or      . It’s our decision: From which perspective do we want to view life? Will we look up in       or down in desperation? I believe in the upward look. I choose to       the positive and skip right over the negative.
An optimistic attitude is not a luxury; it’s a(n)      . The way you look at life will determine how you feel, how you perform, and how well you will get along with other people.      , negative thoughts, attitudes, and expectations       themselves; they become a self-fulfilling prophecy (预言). Pessimism creates a dark place where no one wants to live.
　　Years ago, I drove into a service station to get some gas. It was a beautiful day, and I was feeling great. As I walked into the station to pay for the gas, the attendant said to me, “How do you feel?” That seemed like a(n)       question, but I felt fine and told him so. “You don’t look well,” he replied. This       me completely by surprise. A little       confidently, I told him that I had       felt better. Without hesitation, he continued to tell me how bad I looked and that my skin appeared yellow.
　　By the time I left the service station, I was feeling a little      . About a block away, I      over to the side of the road to look at my face in the mirror. How did I feel? Was I affected with jaundice(黄疸)? Was everything all right? By the time I got home, I was beginning to feel a little nauseous(恶心). Did I have a bad liver? Had I       some rare disease?
On another beautiful day, when I went into that gas station, feeling       again, I figured out what had happened. The place had recently been painted a bright, distasteful      , and the light reflecting       the walls made everyone inside look as though they had hepatitis（肝炎）! I wondered how many other folks had       the way I did. I had let one short conversation with a total       change my attitude for an entire day. He told me I looked sick, and before long, I was actually feeling sick. That single       observation had a great effect on the way I felt and acted.
The only thing more powerful than negativism is a word of optimism and hope. When a whole culture adopts an upward look, incredible things can be accomplished.

My grandfather went to high school in the 1920s. While in school, he became       in the drama program, acting in various productions. He       in touch with his drama teacher.
My father went to high school in the 1960s. Like his      before him, he acted in high school. He, too,stayed in touch with his drama teacher for the rest of the teacher's       I graduated in 1997. When Hoover, my drama teacher, was      in Alaska, I didn't want her to feel like she was ending her life     , so I sent her many packages, including Drama Club yearbook photos from each year she      there in order that she could see the students whose lives she forever     .
Her nickname for our group of Drama Club was "the Throwaway Kids".      , no? She described us as that       we were nonconformists (不墨守成规者) that other teachers didn't         know what to do with. She simply      us for who we are, and that was exactly what we needed.
We have all become       members of society: reporters, lawyers, and singers, soldiers, doctors and, you guessed it, teachers. Every member of my family is a teacher. This year        the 73rd year we have taught in Alaska altogether.
      me, teaching the course is only one important part of the     job. As I returned to my classroom just before the final bell      on the last day of school in May, I thought how the most emotional part of the experience will not be seeing the recent       return to say "hello" at Christmas. That was how the     of keeping in touch with our teachers our whole life long began in my family. Honestly, learning      a lifetime.

My friend Tom came across an accident when driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move. What was           was that he found himself unable to ask for help—his mobile phone went out of       as a result of exhausted battery. Nothing could be done but          in the cold wilderness. It was 8 hours later that day broke and then the       of the rescue team.
It is almost          that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his       . “First of all I checked my   conditions and found myself not in danger. As there was no        to call for help, I leaned（斜靠）back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from       . In this way I dozed（打盹）off.”
His story put an end to my regret for the         of an exploration that happened last year. A group of young men          to explore a mountain cave and got lost.         to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of        . Finally, they fell dead in fear and exhaustion. According to the       team that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the       of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to      themselves, they would probably have sensed a faint light glowing(发出) not far away.
Don’t you think that you can compare it with       itself? When you meet with difficulties in life, you are lost in darkness. Focus that it’s unclear to you yet and you needn’t put up struggle     . It seems to be a negative attitude,     a person who can do so must have foresight as well as a great        in the first place.

My sister and I grew up in a little village in England. Our father was a struggling     , but I always knew he was     . He never criticized us, but used        to bring out our best. He’d say, “If you pour water on flowers, they flourish. If you don’t give them water, they die. ” I       as a child I said something       about somebody, and my father said, “     time you say something unpleasant about somebody else, it’s a reflection（反映）of you. ” He explained that if I looked for the best       people, I would get the best      . From then on I’ve always tried to       the principle in my life and later in running my company.
Dad’s also always been very      . At 15, I started a magazine. It was       a great deal of my time, and the headmaster of my school gave me a      : stay in school or leave to work on my magazine. I decided to leave, and Dad tried to get me to change my decision,       any good father would. When he realized I had made up my mind, he said, “Richard, when I was 23, my dad       me to go into law. And I’ve       regretted it. I wanted to be a biologist, __   I didn’t realize my      . You know what you want. Go achieve it. ”
As      turned out, my little publication went on to become Student, a national       for young people in the U. K. My wife and I have two children, and I’ d like to think we are bringing them up in the same way Dad       me.

Maybe it is true that we do not know what we have got until we lose it, but it is also true that we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you back. Do not expect love in return; but if it does not, be content it grows in yours.
It takes an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Do not rely on one's appearance, it can deceive. Do not rely on wealth, even that fades away. Rely on someone who makes you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them.
Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.
May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.
Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too.
The happiest of people do not necessarily gave the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness waits for those who cry, those who have been hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tired, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.
The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You cannot go on well in life until you let your past failures and heartaches go off.
When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
