When  I was a boy, every holiday that I had seemed wonderful. My        took me by train or by car to a hotel by the       . All day, I seem to remember, I       on the sands with strange       children. We made houses and gardens, and        the tide (潮汐) destroy (破坏, 毁坏) them. When the tide went out, we        over the rocks and looked down at the fish in the rock-pools.
In those days the        seemed to shine always brightly        the water was always warm. Sometimes we left the beach and walked in the country,        ruined (毁灭的) houses and dark woods and climbing trees. There were       in one's pockets or good places where one could        ice-creams. Each day seemed a life-time. 
Although I am now thirty-five years old, my idea of a good        is much the same as it was. I       like the sun and warm sand and the sound of _      beating the rocks. I no longer wish to        any sand house or sand garden, and I dislike sweets.       , I love the sea and often feel sand running through my fingers.
Sometimes I        what my ideal (理想的) holiday will be like when I am       . All I want to do then, perhaps, will be to lie in bed, reading books about        who make houses and gardens with sands, who watch the incoming tide, who make        sick on too many ices.

It was an autumn morning shortly after my husband and I moved into our first house. Our children were upstairs unpacking, and I was looking out of the window at my father moving around mysteriously on the front lawn. My parents lived nearby, and Dad had visited us several times already. “What are you doing out there?” I called to him.
He looked up, smiling. “I’m making you a surprise.” Knowing my father, I thought it could be just about anything. A self-employed jobber, he was always building things out of odds and ends. When we were kids, he always created something surprising for us.
Today, however, Dad would say no more, and caught ups in the busyness of our new life, I eventually forgot about his surprise.
Until one gloomy day the following March when I glanced out of the window. Any yet… I saw a dot of blue across the yard. I headed outside for a closer look. They were crocuses (番红花), throughout the front lawn. Lavender, blue, yellow and my favorite pink --- little faces moved up and down in the cold wind.
Dad! I smiled, remembering the things he had secretly planted last autumn. He knew how the darkness and dullness of winter always got me down. What could have been more perfectly timely to my needs?
My father’s crocuses bloomed each spring for the next four or five seasons, bringing the same assurance every time they arrived: hard times was almost over. Hold on, keep going, light is coming soon.
Then a spring came with only half the usual blooms. The next spring there were none. I missed the crocuses. I would ask Dad to come over and plant new bulbs. But I never did.
He died suddenly one October day. My family was in deep sorrow, leaning on our faith. I missed him terribly.
Four years passed, and on a dismal spring afternoon I was driving back when I found myself feeling depressed. “You’ve got the winter depression again and you get them every year.” I told myself.
It was Dad’s birthday, and I found myself thinking about him. This was not unusual --- my family often talked about him, remembering how he lived his faith. Once I saw him give his coat to a homeless man.
Suddenly I slowed as I turned into our driveway. I stopped and stared at the lawn. And there on the muddy grass and small gray piles of melting snow, bravely waving in the wind, was one pink crocus.
How could a flower bloom from a bulb more than 18 years old, one that had not blossomed in over a decade? But there was the crocus. Tears filled my eyes as I realized its significance.
Hold on, keep going, light is coming soon. The pink crocus bloomed for only a day. But it built my faith for a lifetime.

We live in a fast-paced and anxiety-filled world that oftentimes seems to shift beneath our feet. Thus we are sometimes affected by fears or anxiety impacting our life. For as long as I could remember I had struggled with anxiety. After I left university, I made friends with a Moroccan woman at work. One day she invited me to    her and her family back home. I wanted to, but I would have to travel there     and I knew we would be in a very rural area. How would I cope with my    ?
Then one day it     to me that I had a life to live. I could choose to let anxiety     me or I could go to Morocco and     something different. I was 23 years old and had never been out of the UK alone. The journey to Morocco     something inside me. I managed to cope with my anxiety. The sense of     was overwhelming and still to this day when I get afraid of going somewhere alone, I remember how     it felt when I arrived in Morocco.
Upon arrival I was so     for the generous welcome I received. My friend’s family had arranged a welcome party. The people were so loving toward me. As a moment of     felt in a faraway village, this reminded me that I was “good enough”, which helped to     my anxiety.
Waking up the next day, in the morning light, I saw the area where we were. I was     by how rural it was – and the realization that these people had very few     .
In the days afterwards, I traveled around Morocco. We went to Marrakesh and     the Atlas mountains. We had the most amazing food – lots of fresh fruits and vegetables.
At the end of my     something inside me had changed. I realized I had not felt anxious for nearly two weeks.
Experiencing a different culture far away from home helped me to realize what is important in life, what really    , and with that my anxiety    . When I returned home I was much more active in     my anxiety. Working with people, helping them     their anxiety, is how I can share the love I found in Morocco.

Have you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just be­cause the salesman talked you into it? Many people are afraid to support themselves. Dr Robert Albert, author of Stand Up, Speak Out, and Talk Back thinks it' s because their self-respect is low. "There's always a' superior' around­— a parent, a teacher, a boss— who knows better."
But Albert and other scientists are doing something to help people help themselves. They offer "assertiveness training" courses , A.T. for short. In the A.T. Course people learn that they have a right to be themselves. They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so. They learn to be aggressive without hurting other people.
In one way, learning to speak out is to get rid of fear. A group taking an A.T. Course will help the timid person to lose his fear. But A.T. uses an even stronger motive— he need to share. The timid person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels. Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-respect. If someone you face is more "important" than you, you may feel less of a person. You start to doubt your answers to problems. You can get to feel good about your­self. And once you do, you can learn to speak out.
小题1:The problem the writer talks about is that ________.
A．some people buy things they don't want
B．some people are afraid to speak out for their rights
C．there are too many superiors
D．some people don't think enough of themselves
小题2:The cause of the problem talked about in this pas­sage is that ________.
A．some people have a low self-respect
B．there is always someone around who "knows better"
C．salesmen talk people into buying things they don't want
D．people don t share enough
小题3:The A.T. Courses often ________.
A. make people distrust their own answers
B. make things more favorable for "superiors"
C. help people know as much as their "superiors"
D. help people become more important
小题4:A good title for this passage could be "________".
A．The Need to ShareB．Talk Back When Necessary
C．One Way to Build Self-RespectD．One Way to Train Speaking Ability
I left university with a good degree in English Literature, but no sense of what I wanted to do. Over the next six years, I was treading(在...上面走) water, just trying to earn an income. I tried journalism, but I didn’t think I was any good, then finance, which I hated. Finally, I got a job as a rights assistant at a famous publisher. I loved working with books, although the job that I did was dull.
I had enough savings to take a year off work, and I decided to try to satisfy a deep-down wish to write a novel. Attending a Novel Writing MA course gave me the structure I needed to write my first 55,000 words.
It takes confidence to make a new start — here’s a dark period in-between where you’re neither one thing nor the other. You’re out for dinner and people ask what you do, and you’re too ashamed to say, “Well, I’m writing a novel, but I’m not quite sure if I’m going to get there.” My confidence dived. Believing my novel could not be published, I put it aside.
Then I met an agent（代理商）who said I should send my novel out to agents. So, I did and, to my surprise, got some wonderful feedback. I felt a little hope that I might actually become a published writer and, after signing with an agent, I finished the second half of the novel.
The next problem was finding a publisher. After two-and-a-half years of no income, just waiting and wondering, a publisher offered me a book deal — that publisher turned out to be the one I once worked for.
It feels like an unbelievable stroke of luck — of fate, really. When you set out to do something different, there’s no end in sight, so to find myself in a position where I now have my own name on a contract（合同）of the publisher — to be a published writer — is unbelievably rewarding.
小题1:The author decided to write a novel ______ .
A．to finish the writing courseB．to realize her own dream
C．to satisfy readers’ wishD．to earn more money
小题2:How did the writer feel halfway with the novel?
A．Disturbed.B．Ashamed.C．Confident.D．Uncertain.
小题3:What does the author mainly want to tell readers in the last paragraph?
A．It pays off to stick to one’s goal.
B．Hard work can lead to success.
C．She feels like being unexpectedly lucky.
D．There is no end in sight when starting to do something.
There’s no danger of 88-year-old Harry Ward forgetting his wife Doris’s Valentine’s Day card – the couple still use the same one he bought her 70 years ago.
When 17-year-old Harry Ward presented Doris with a Valentine’s Day card as he boarded a train to join the wartime effort on February 14, 1941, he must have been fairly confident about his affections(钟爱). After all the couple had been dating since they met in a café three months earlier.
But little can he have imagined that 70 years on, not only would he still be happy about having married Doris, but that every year she would present him with the very same card he gave her that Valentine’s Day. “I bring it out of the cupboard and put it on our mantelpiece（壁炉台）every Valentine’s Day,” she said. “It’s a special to me now as it was 70 years ago. Harry has never bought me one since, because I have this one every year.”
They first met in a café. “Harry was in the café drinking and he said hello. He asked me my name and we got talking happily. He offered to walk me to the bus stop but when we got outside, a bombing raid（突然袭击）had started and we had to run to a nearby air-raid shelter（防空洞）,” Doris said.
Mr. Ward said,“I knew Doris was the one for me the moment I met her. I gave her the Valentine’s card then and she is still my Valentine now.” Mrs. Ward’s card is not the only thing that has endured the passing of time.
“Harry is quite romantic and we are as still in love as the day he first gave me this card,”Dorris said.
小题1:When did the couple first meet?
A．In 1940.B．In 1939.C．In 1941.D．In 1942
小题2:Why does Mrs. Ward always use the same Valentine’s Day card?
A．She is an environmentalist.
B．She can’t afford a new one.
C．She values the card very much.
D．She doesn’t want to waste money.
小题3:What do we know about the 70-year-old Valentine’s Day card?
A．It was first given to Doris on a plane.
B．It is usually kept in their cupboard
C．It was made by hand by Mr. Ward.
D．It is sent to Doris by post every year.
小题4:By saying “Mrs. Ward’s card is not the only thing that has endured the passing of time.”, the author means __________.
A．The card records their romance
B．The card will still be used in future
C．They both treasure the very card
D．Their affections are still strong
Dreaming is a natural part of who we are. We explore our dreams and develop personal dreams. We even like to dream BIG!
For the most part our dreams and wishes focus on the end result. We see ourselves in love, married, driving a great car, on vacation, with tons of money, in a great career, etc. Dreaming about the end result is just fantasizing and wishing. Wishing relies on some magical force to make our dreams turn into reality, and we become unhappy as we’re not living(实现) our dreams.
So how can we make our dreams come true? That is a question we all often struggle with. Even though we struggle with the answer, the answer is not that clear. We make our dreams come true with the action we take.
In my opinion, if you dream about being in good health, then change your dream to see yourself working out and eating right day by day. See the beginning of the dream and let the dream build day by day with all the action that gets you to the end dream of you being in good health.
If you want riches, then change the dream. Dream of yourself going to school, developing a career, working hard and taking the steps to arrive at the destination. If you want love, love the process. Love the dating process(过程). Love yourself and the journey to find love.
Make all your dreams include the beginning, middle and end. Then when you are doing the action instead of thinking to yourself, “This is a drag. I don’t like working out,” or if you are having any negative thoughts about doing the work it takes to create your visions(梦幻), realize then that every step of the way you are living your dream. You are living your dream because you made the action and journey part of your dream.
小题1:According to the writer, most of the people____.
A．pay more attention to developing their dreams
B．enjoy the process of their dreams
C．are always ignoring the process of living their dreams
D．probably dream of making much more money easily
小题2:In order to live our dreams, we must____.
A．struggle with dreams day and night.
B．have great wishes and thoughts.
C．have magical forces every night.
D．take action or steps.
小题3: If you want to keep fit,______
A．you’d better dream a sweet dream first.
B．you must love the process of the journey.
C．you would rather begin with your diet and exercise.
D．you should have a good beginning first.
小题4: what can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．It’s important to focus on your final result.
B．Good mind and action can help you live your dream.
C．Think to yourself while living your dream.
D．Creating your visions comes first.

It is no use crying over spilt milk. We have    a lot of precious things in our life without knowing how to   them. Actually, I also missed something   before. The reason is simple: we had thought that we could still own them tomorrow.
