2．When I was nine years old，I loved to go fishing with my dad．But the only thing that wasn't very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn't catch anything．I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why．He always answered，"Son，if you want to catch a fish，you have to think like a fish"，I remember being even more upset then because，"I'm not a fish!"I didn't know how to think like a fish．Besides，I reasoned，how could what I think influence what a fish does．
As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant．So，I read some books on fish．And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings．I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature．That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer．Besides，water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade．Yet，fish don't have any eyelids（眼皮） and the sun hurts their eyes…The more I understood fish，the more I became effective t finding and catching them．
When I grew up and entered the business world，I remember hearing my first boss say，"We all need to think like sales people．"But it didn't completely make sense．My dad never once said，"If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman．"What he said was，"You need to think like a fish．"Years later，with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me，I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers．It is not an easy job．I will show you how in the following chapters．

19．Here comes a story that many years ago a man arrived at a village in India to catch monkeys so he could sell them to zoos．The monkeys，however，were very clever and every sort of trap he set failed．A young boy watched the man's pathetic efforts and laughed．
The man said，"If you can catch me a monkey，I'll give you﹩2．That was a huge amount of money then．The boy went to his home and took a clay pot with a narrow neck．He placed a few nuts around the pot and put lots of nuts inside．He then tied the pot to a tree and told the man，"We should have a rest in a few hours．Let's wait in the village．The monkey will call us when he is ready．"Certainly enough，a band of monkeys soon discovered the nuts and the pot．One slipped his hand in the pot and grabbed a handful of nuts，but he couldn't pull his hand out of the narrow opening of the pot because his fist（拳头） was clenched．The monkey feared and started making loud noises．Some of the other monkeys tried unsuccessfully to pull the pot off his hand．The boy and the man heard the noises and the boy got a big strong bag．As they approached the monkeys they all ran away except the one with its hand in the pot．The boy grabbed the monkey and the pot．The man was amazed and asked the boy the secret of his monkey trap，"Why was it so easy for the monkey to get his hand in but so hard to get it out？"The boy laughed and said，"The monkey could have easily got his hand back out and escaped，but he would have had to let go of the nuts in the pot and he just wasn't willing to let go．They never are．"What lessons can be learned from this story？Do people sometimes trap themselves by holding onto things that they should let go？Do you？

12．Do the athletes competeforprize money in the Modern Olympics？

19．Imagine you are standing on the 70^th floor of the Empire State Building，staring at the cityscape．Suddenly a man pushes past you，opens the window and announces his intention to jump．You yell out，"Stop!Don't do it!"the six-foot-five figure turns to you and menacingly （恐吓地） says，"Try to stop me and I'll take you with me!"
"Umm…No problem，sir．have a good trip．any last words？"
"Let me tell you my troubles，"he says，"my wife left me，my kids won't talk to me，I lost my job and my pet turtle died，so why should I go on living？"
Suddenly you have a flash of inspiration．"Sir，close your eyes for a minute and imagine that you are blind．No colors，no sights of children playing，no fields of flowers，no sunset．Now imagine that suddenly there's a miracle．You open your eyes and your vision is restored!Are you going to jump？Or will you stick around for a week to enjoy the sights？"
"I'll stay for a wee k．"
"But what happened to all the troubles？"
"I guess they're not so bad．I can see!"
"Well，your eyesight is worth at least five million dollars．You're a rich man!"
If you really appreciate your eyesight，the other pains are insignificant．But if you take it all for granted，then nothing in life will ever truly give you joy．Actually，there are misconceptions on the road to happiness．
misconception1："Once I know the tools for being happy，then it will work like magic．"
Don't expect the results to come automatically．It is possible to understand how to achieve happiness，yet not put it into practice．In fact，many people actually prefer to be comfortable and unhappy，rather than bear the discomfort of changing their habits．Just as learning any new skill requires effort，you have to be willing to invest serious effort to achieve real happiness．
Misconception 2："if I become content and satisfied with what I have，I'll lose my motivation to achieve more．"
Now ask someone who is depressed，"Let's go fishing!""I'm tired．Maybe tomorrow．And anyway，I might rain…"in reality，happy people are energetic and ambitious．There's never enough time to do everything they want to do．
Misconception 3：
A beautiful Sunday afternoon，you're in the park having a picnic with friends．Suddenly one person complains："who forgot the forks？It's too hot for volleyball．I want to go home already．"
When our mood negatively affects others，we recognize we have duty to be happy and not spoil the fun．But what about when we're at home with our family？Or when we go into the office on Monday morning？like an open pit in the middle of the road，a sourpuss（牢骚满腹的人） is a public danger．Being happy is part of being considerate to the people around us．
29．The story is placed at the beginning of the passage in order toD．
A．tell a skill of persuasion
B．warn the danger of standing on a tall building
C．emphasize the importance of eyesight
D．introduce the theme of the passage
30．What can be inferred from the underlined sentences？B
A．Everything has a price．
B．We should value what we have．
C．Every dog has its day．
D．Eyesight is more important．
31．What is right about happy？C
A．Happy is a gift．
B．Happy is limited．
C．Happy is contagious （会传染的）．
D．Happy is no more than a skill．
32．The best subtitle of Misconception 3 isD．
A．If unhappy occurs at home，I needn't pretend to be happy
B．If I can't make others unhappy，I won't be happy．
C．If someone is happy，then others around them are happy．
D．If I want to be depressed，that's my own prerogative．

16．I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves，most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of．In fact，I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives （观点） by creating worlds we could step into，take part in and live in．
With this unshakable belief，I，at fourteen，decided to become a writer．Here too，reading became useful．Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say，but being unable to find the right ways to say it．He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with，or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world．He cannot write without loving to read，because only through reading other people's writing can one discover what works，what doesn't and，in the end，together with lots of practice，what voice he has．
Now I am in college，and have come to realize how important it is to read fiction （文学作品）．As a law student，my reading is in fact limited to subject matter-the volume （量） of what I have to read for classes every week means there is little time to read anything else．Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life．Reading fiction reminds me that there is life beyond my own．It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road，all from the comfort of my own armchair，to experience，though secondhand，exciting experiences that I wouldn't necessarily be able to have in my lifetime．

21．What can be inferred about the author as a child？D

B．He read what he had to．
C．He found reading unbelievable．
D．He considered reading part of his life．
22．The underlined word"voice"in the second paragraph most probably means"C"．
A．an idea
B．a sound quality
C．a way of writing
D．a world to write about
23．What effect does reading have on the author？B
A．It helps him to realize his dream．
B．It opens up a wider world for him．
C．It makes his college life more interesting．
D．It increases his interest in worldwide travel．
24．Which of the following can be the best title of this text？A
A．Why do I read？
B．How do I read？
C．What do I read？
D．When do I read？

17．We are not born with courage，but neither are we born with fear．Maybe some of our fears are brought on by your own experiences，by what someone has told you，by what you've read in the papers．Some fears are reasonable，like walking alone in a bad part of town at two o'clock in the morning．But once you learn to avoid that situation，you won't need to live in fear of it．
Fears，even the most basic ones，can totally destroy our ambitions．Fear can destroy fortunes．Fear can destroy relationships．Fear，if left uncontrolled，can destroy our lives．Fear is one of the many enemies hidden inside us．
Let me tell you about three of the other enemies we face from within．The first enemy that you've got to destroy before it destroys you is indifference．What a tragic disease this is!"Ho-hum，let it slide．I'll just drift（漂流） along．"Here's one problem with drifting：you can't drift your way to the top of the mountain．
The second enemy we face is indecision．Indecision is the thief of opportunity and enterprise．It will steal your chances for a better future．Take a sword to this enemy．
The third enemy inside is doubt．Sure，there's room for healthy skepticism（怀疑）．You can't believe everything．But you also can't let doubt take over．Many people doubt the past，doubt the future，doubt each other，doubt the government，doubt the possibilities and doubt the opportunities．Worst of all，they doubt themselves．I'm telling you，doubt will destroy your life and your chances of success．It will empty both your bank account and your heart．Doubt is an enemy．Go after it．Get rid of it．
Title：Facing the enemies within

What they are	（81）How theyaffect you	How you can deal with them
Fear	（82）Destroy your ambitions，fortunes，relationships and even lives．	Bring it under control．
Indifference	Just get you to drift along，in which case，you can never （83）make it to the top of the mountain．	Destroy it before it destroys you．
Indecision	（84）Steal your opportunity，enterprise and your chances for a better future．	Take a sword to it．
Doubt	●Destroy your life and your chances of success． ●Empty your heart as （85）well as your bank account．	Go after it and remove it．
