If I look at them, I see four instead two, and I’m drunk. Understand?” Hearing at this, I pretended to be puzzled, and said. “My God, and there are six policemen over there.

There is one type of illness in the world that affects more people than anything else and is very deadly. What is this illness? It is depression. Serious depression requires professional treatment. 【1】 Everyone’s circumstances are different, but the causes of self-induced (自我诱导)depression are common: low self-esteem, hurtful thinking and a bad attitude.【2】

1. Examine ourselves and set a goal.

First we must look at ourselves, truly and honestly examining our motives for what we wish to achieve. If you are dissatisfied because you feel you haven’t or can’t do anything, then one step is needed—to set goals.

【3】Think of them as sand; one grain may be insignificant but as a group they form the beach. Once you have set and attained small goals for yourself, move on to slightly larger, more challen ging goals.

2.【4】

There are a number of factors that can make us think negatively and one of those is diet. In my opinion, a person who eats a lot of take-out and fast food is feeding their body junk. Start by eating better foods which give the body much NEEDED minerals. If your physical body is happy, it’s much easier for your mental body or “thinking ability” to be happy.

3. Think about good things and smile

Think about good memories you had, or generally think of things that make you smile.

【5】A smile can be the difference between an average day and a great day.

If you follow these steps, positive change is inevitable.

A. Go on a diet and keep a good figure.

B. Remember, everything you wear costs money but to wear a smile is free.

C. However, self-induced depression is something each of us can change.

D. Feed ourselves well and be physically health.

E. Always start your goals relatively small and easy to attain.

F. Good memories help you keep a good state of mind.

G. So how can we change the way we think, feel, and cultivate a cheerful attitude?

Any car accident is frightening, but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water, with you trapped inside, is absolutely terrifying. 【1】 However, most deaths result from panic, without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water. By adopting a brace(支撑) position, acting decisively and getting out fast, you can save yourself from a sinking vehicle.

Brace yourself for impact(撞击力). As soon as you are aware that you're going off the road and into a body of water, adopt a brace position. The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle, so you should place both hands on the steering wheel in the “ten and two” position.

Undo your seatbelt. 【2】 Unbuckle the children, starting with the oldest first. Forget the cell phone call. Your car isn’t going to wait for you to make the call.

【3】 Leave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window. A car’s electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water, so try the method of opening it electronically first. Many people don’t think about the window as an escape option either because of panic or misinformation about doors and sinking.

Break the window. If you aren’t able to open the window, or it only opens halfway, you'll need to break it with an object or your foot. It may feel counter-intuitive (有悖常理的) to let water into the car. 【4】

Escape when the car has equalized. If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water and it has become balanced, you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival【5】 While there is still air in the car, take slow, deep breaths and focus on what you're doing.

A. Open the window as soon as you hit the water.

B. Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think.

C. It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usually.

D. Such accidents are particularly dangerous to the risk of drowning.

E. In conclusion, if you know what to do in the water, you will be safe.

F. This is the first thing to attend to, yet it often gets forgotten in the panic.

G. But the sooner the window is open, the sooner you can escape directly through it.

【题目】阅读理解

When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor named Doctor Gibbs. He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. He never yelled at us for playing in his yard, but was always very kind.

When Doctor Gibbs wasn’t saving lives, he was planting trees. His house sat on ten acres, and his life’s goal was to make it a forest. He had some interesting theories about planting trees. He hardly watered his new trees, which flew in the face of conventional wisdom. Once I asked why and he told me that watering plants spoiled them because it made them grow weaker. He said you had to make things tough for the trees so that only the strongest could survive. He talked about how watering trees made them develop shallow roots and how, if they were not watered, trees would grow deep roots in search of water. So, instead of watering his trees every morning, he’d beat them with a rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s attention.

Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home. Every now and then, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I’d watched him plant some twenty five years ago. They were all tall, big and robust since they have deep roots now.

I planted a couple of trees myself a few years ago. Two years of attending these trees meant they grew up weak. Whenever a cold wind blew, their branches trembled. Adversity(逆境) seemed to benefit Doctor Gibb’s trees in ways comfort and ease never could.

Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. I often pray that their lives will be easy. But lately I’ve been thinking that it’s time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to meet with hardship. There’s always a cold wind blowing somewhere. What we need to do is to pray for deep roots, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we won’t be torn apart.

【1】With the trees planted, Doctor Gibbs __________

A. kept watering them every morning

B. paid little attention to them

C. talked to them to get their attention

D. beat them to make them grow deep roots

【2】The underlined word “robust” in para.3 probably means _________?

A. strange B. deep C. strong D. old

【3】 Which of the following will be the author’s prayer on the days ahead?

A. Have an easy life, without too much to worry about.

B. Meet people like Dr. Gibbs in the future.

C. Have good luck, encountering less hardship in their life.

D. Be able to stand the rain and wind in their lives.

【4】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

A. Growing roots

B. Doctor Gibbs and his trees

C. Prayers for my sons

D. Watering trees
