John H．Johnson was born in a family in Arkansas City in 1918．His father died in an accident when John was six．He was reaching high school age, but his hometown offered no high schools for the blacks．

Fortunately he has a strong-willed and caring mother．John remembers that his mother told him many times, “Son, you can be anything you really want to be if you just believe．” She told him not to be dependent on others, including his mother．“You have to earn success”, said she, “all the people who work hard don’t succeed, but the only people who do succeed are those who work hard．”

These words came from a woman with less than a third grade education．She also knew that believing and working hard don’t mean everything．So she worked hard as a cook for two years to save enough to take her son to Chicago．

Chicago in 1933 was not the Promised Land that black southerners were looking for．John’s mother could not find work．But here John could go to school, and learned the power of words―as an editor of a newspaper．His wish was to publish a magazine for the blacks．

While others discouraged him, John’s mother offered him more words to live by: “Nothing beats a failure but a try．” She also let him sell her furniture to get the 500 dollars he needed to start the Negro magazine．

It’s natural that difficulties and failures followed John closely until he became very successful．He always keeps his mother’s words in mind．“Son, failure is not in your dictionary．” Now John H．Johnson is one of the 400 richest people in America―worth 150 million dollars．

56．Why did John’s mother decide to move to Chicago? Because _____ ．

A．life in Chicago would be better for the blacks than for the whites

B．John’s father died in his hometown when John was very young

C．there were no schools for the blacks in their hometown

D．John needed education and he could go to high school there

57．The underlined sentence in the fifth paragraph means ________ ．

A．if you try , you will surely succeed

B．a try is always followed by a failure

C．only by trying can you get out of failure

D．a failure is difficult to beat , even if you try

58．We can learn from this passage that John’s mother ________ ．

A．didn’t depend on others or give up easily

B．thought success only lied in a strong faith

C．thought one could be whatever one wanted to be

D．believed one would succeed without working hard

59．What can be inferred from this passage?

A．If someone wants to be successful, he should always stand firm．

B．Chicago was not the Promised Land for the black southerners in 1933．

C．John’s father died in an accident during the war．

　　There's an energy crisis in America, and it has nothing to do with fossil fuels．Millions of us get up each morning already weary over the day holds．“I just can't get started．” People say．But it's not physical energy that most of us lack．Sure, we could all use extra sleep and a better diet．But in truth, people are healthier today than at any time in history．I can almost guarantee that if you long for more energy, the problem is not with your body．

　　What you're seeking is not physical energy．It's emotional energy．Yet, sad to say life sometimes seems designed to exhaust our supply．We work too hard．We have family obligations(义务)．We encounter(遭遇)emergencies and personal crises．No wonder so many of us suffer from emotional fatigue(疲劳), a kind of utter exhaustion of the spirit．

　　And yet we all know people who are filled with joy, despite the unpleasant circumstances of their lives．Even as a child I observed people who were poor or disabled or ill, but who nevertheless faced life with optimism and vigor(活力)．Consider Laura Hillenbrand, who despite

　　an extremely weak body wrote the best-seller Seabiscuit．Hillenbrand barely had enough physical energy to drag herself out of bed to write．But she was fueled by having a story she wanted to share．It was emotional energy that helped her succeed．Unlike physical energy, which is finite(有限的)and diminishes(减少)with age, emotional energy is unlimited and has nothing to do with genes or upbringing．So how do you get it? You can't simply tell yourself to be positive．You must take action．Here are six practical strategies that work．

　　1．Do something new．

　　Very little that's new occurs in our lives．The impact of this sameness on our emotional energy is gradual, but huge：It's like a tire(轮胎)with a slow leak(漏)．You don't notice it at first, but eventually you'll get a flat．It's up to you to plug the leak－even though there are always a dozen reasons to stay stuck in your dull routines of life．That's where Maura, 36, a waitress, found herself a year ago．Fortunately, Maura had a lifeline－a group of women friends who meet regularly to discuss their lives．Their lively discussions spurred Maura to make small but nevertheless life altering changes．She joined a gym in the next town．She changed her look with a short haircut and new black T-shirts．Eventually, Maura gathered the courage to quit her job and start her own business．Here's a challenge：If it's something you wouldn't ordinarily do, do it．Try a dish you've never eaten．Listen to music you'd ordinarily tune out．You'll discover these small things add to your emotional energy．

　　2．Reclaim life's meaning．

　　So many of my patients tell me that their lives used to have meaning, but that somewhere along the line things went stale(厌倦的)．The first step in solving this meaning shortage is to figure out what you really care about, and then do something about it．A case in point is Ivy, 57, a pioneer in investment banking．“I mistakenly believed that all the money I made would mean something．” she says．“But I feel lost, like a 22-year-old wondering what to do with her life．” Ivy's solution? She started a program that shows Wall Streeters how to donate time and money to poor children．In the process, Ivy filled her life with meaning．

　　3．Put yourself in the fun zone．

　　Most of us grown-ups are seriously fun-deprived(缺乏的)．High-energy people have the same day-to-day work as the rest of us, but they manage to find something enjoyable in every situation．A real estate broker I know keeps herself amused on the job by mentally redecorating the houses she shows to clients(客户)．“I love imagining what even the most run-down house could look like with a little tender loving care,” she says．“It's a challenge－and the least desirable properties are usually the most fun．” We all define fun differently, of course, but I can guarantee this：If you put just a bit of it into your day, you energy will increase quickly．

　　4．Bid farewell(告别)to guilt and regret．

　　Everyone's past is filled with regrets that still cause pain．But from an emotional energy point of view, they are dead weights that keep us from moving forward．While they can't merely be willed away, I do recommend you remind yourself that whatever happened in the past, nothing can change that．Holding on to the memory only allows the damage to continue into the present．

　　5．Make up your mind．

　　Say you've been thinking about cutting your hair short．Will it look stylish－or too extreme? You endlessly think it over．Having the decision hanging over your head is a huge energy drain．Every time you can't decide, you burden yourself with alternatives．Quit thinking that you have to make the right decision; instead, make a choice and don't look back．

　　6．Give to get．

　　Emotional energy has a kind of magical quality：the more you give, the more you get back．This is the difference between emotional and physical energy with the latter．You have to get it to be able to give it．With the former, however, you get it by giving it．Start by asking everyone you meet, “How are you?” as if you really want to know, and then listen to the reply．Be the one who hears．Most of us also need to smile more often．If you don't smile at the person you love first thing in the morning, you're sucking energy out of your relationship．Finally, help another person－and make the help real, concrete．Give a massage to someone you love, or cook her dinner, then, expand the circle to work．Try asking yourself what you'd do if your goal were to be helpful rather than efficient．After all, if it's true that what goes around comes around, why not make sure that what's circulating around you is the good stuff?

　　There are two basic ways to see growth：one as a product, the other as a process．

　　People have generally viewed personal growth as an external(外在的)result or a product that can easily be identified and measured．The worker who gets a rise, the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language－all these examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts．

　　By contrast, the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way．The process is not the road itself, but the attitudes, feelings people have, and their caution or courage, as they meet with new experiences and unexpected difficulties．In this process, the journey never really ends; there are always new ways to experience the world, new ideas to try, new challenges to accept．

　　In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a will to take risks, to face the unknown, and to accept the possibility that they may “fail” at first．How we see our ability to grow? Do we see ourselves as quick and curious?If so, we tend to take more chances and be more open to unfamiliar experiences．Do we think we’re shy and indecisive? Then our sense of fear can cause us to hesitate, to move slowly, and not to take a step until we know the ground is safe．Do we think we’re slow to adapt to change or that we’re not smart enough to deal with a new challenge? Then we are likely to take a more passive role or not try at all．

　　The feelings of insecurity and self-doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow．If we protect ourselves too much then we stop growing．We become trapped inside a shell of our own making．

(1)

In the author’s eyes, who views personal growth as a process would ________．．
[　　]
A．	succeed in climbing up the social ladder
B．	grow up from his own achievements
C．	face difficulties and take up challenges
D．	aim high and reach his goal each time

(2)

For personal growth, the author is in favor of all the following EXCEPT ________．
[　　]
A．	being curious about more changes
B．	being quick in self-adaptation
C．	having an open mind to new experiences
D．	staying away from failures and challenges

(3)

Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
[　　]
A．	It is not so easy to measure personal growth．
B．	On the new road facing the unknown is unavoidable．
C．	There are only two ways to see a person’s growth．
D．	If you are too shy to take any risks in life, you cannot grow．

(4)

What is the best title for this passage?
[　　]
A．	Facing New Challenges
B．	Growth-Product or Process
C．	Two Ways of Growth
D．	Overcoming Internal Fears

　　Have you ever noticed what happens to an idea once you express it?Just talking about it or writing it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind．How can you use this to increase your brain power?Start writing．

　　By putting thoughts into words, you are telling yourself the logic behind what you think, feel, or only partly understand．Often, explaining a thought is the process of understanding．In other words, you increase your brain power by exercising your “explain power”．

　　Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember．Many, if not most, highly productive people are always taking notes．You can try keeping it all in your head, but if you keep a journal(日志)of your ideas the next time you’re working on a big project, you’ll probably have more success．

　　Want to understand a topic?Write a book about it．That’s an extreme example, but if you are learning something new, write a letter to a friend about it, and you will understand it better．Want to invent something?Write an explanation of the problem－why you want to solve it, and why it is worth solving, and you’re half-way there．

　　Writers don’t always write because they clearly understand something beforehand．Often, they write about something because they want to understand it．You can do the same．Writing will help bring you to an understanding．Give it a try．

(1)

What would be the best title for the passage?
[　　]
A．	A Way on How to Write．
B．	Increase Your Brain Power Through Writing．
C．	Brain Power Helps Improve Your Writing．
D．	How to Start Your Writing．

(2)

According to the passage, writing can help you a lot EXCEPT ________．
[　　]
A．	to increase your brain power．
B．	to improve the ability to remember．
C．	to develop your interest in study．
D．	to strengthen the understanding of a topic．

(3)

The underlined sentence“you’re half-way there”in the fourth paragraph means that ________．
[　　]
A．	you are already successful．
B．	there’s a long way for you to go to reach your goal．
C．	you are left wondering what to do．
D．	you have been on the way to success．

(4)

Which of the following statements is TRUE?
[　　]
A．	Writing can cure people of their brain disease．
B．	People who can keep all thoughts in mind are more likely to succeed．
C．	Writing a book about one topic is the only way to understand it．
D．	The more you write, the more logical you will be．

阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。

首先，请阅读下列为读者来信所写的建议：

A.

It seems your friend works extremely hard but doesn't always achieve what she wants．I think she needs to ease the pressure on herself a bit and have some fun．How about suggesting that you both go for a picnic together? Have an outing together so that she is away from her studies．She may open out a bit then．

B.

Discuss this with your parents before you decide anything；they've invested time and money in giving you the best education，and they might want you to continue．Discuss the choices with your school and university，and they might be able to help you out．I assume you will have a few months before you start university．Maybe you can take that time to work and help your parents, and maybe keep a part time job while you attend university．

C.

It is time to confront your mother．It is not her future to decide，but it is yours．If it is a money issue，then you can wait a little longer．If not，then just confront her．Do not be afraid．My suggestion to you is，“Never give up your dream”，aim for what you want，and don't let a simple “no” stop you from what you love．

D.

Confidence comes from within．This often leads to your becoming more confident naturally．Make a plan in your head，try and smile at one complete stranger every day．Build up to making small talk to one person a day if you can．Once you realize that you can do it，then it will only get easier. Join out-of-school activities that you are interested in and you may find lots of people in the same situation as yourself. I wish you luck!

E.

Is it so important to get your exams? Could you find something that really suits you with an understanding company or employer that will help you gain experience and work up the ladder from a practical point of view rather than an academic result．I sometimes think that work experience is more important．You may have to come a bit closer to home and start from there to avoid the upset and ignorance of ot hers．Hope this helps．

F.

You need to believe in your own powers．I guess one way you can learn to do that is to set challenges for yourself，and then work to meet them，one by one．Gradually，you won't be able to deny to yourself that you can get things done．And that will improve your confidence，and will also help you see what you can't do．Start small，and never give in．You should see results in some time．I wish you the best.

以下是读者来信，请匹配来信与其对应的建议：

1.I have had learning difficulties all my life and life is impossible．I fail at everything I do and I'm left behind，like years behind．For people with no learning difficulties，life is always easier but that's not me．What people with learning difficulties are left by years while those don't move up the ladder quicker? The people like me are just left labeled a stupid guy，life passes by for me and people without learning difficulties go ahead without failing exams and life is great for them．People like me have to wait another year to repeated exams or maybe two while peers go on．

2.I'm from Europe and it's been a long time that I'm thinking of spending 6 months in the USA．in a High School．It's my dream．I asked my mom but she doesn't want me to go there．She didn't say why! I've spoken with people who went to study in the US and they told me that when I come back I'll be different．We don't have a lot of interesting courses like Americans．The cost is 5,300 Euros．I don't know how to say to my mom that I want to go there and that's my dream，and it'll be great for my future… Could you help me?

3.I have a friend．We studied at the same school．Before she did the Entrance Examination，she had hoped to study in the department of Dentistry(牙医)．She concentrated on her books．She read the books and did the exercise too much．After we did the Entrance Examination，she told me her scores were not enough．It meant she couldn't study in the department that she had hoped．I still encourage her．She told me she was all right，but I think she was sad．I want to help her feel better．What should I do?

4.I have serious confidence issues，and today I went to my first day of a new school．Unfortunately I have been at the same school previously my whole life．Yeah I have mates outside of school and that，but that one day has just changed everything about how I feel．I thought in my previous school I could make a difference in the world，but now I'm just lost，confused and I know no one．I'm not very sociable either，and just not comfortable with the environment．How can I be more sociable? Confident? Everything? HELP!!

5.I am writing to you to seek advice．My name is Nawel．I'll sit for my BAC exam soon．I'll certainly succeed，but my parents are old and are in need of financial help. I'd really like to help them．However，if I do，I'll have to give up my dream of becoming a doctor．On one hand, if I decided to help，I'll have to give up my registration at University．On the other hand，if I don't，I'll feel guilty of not helping my family．I have no one to turn to．What should I do?

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

1._____________

Most of us have one or a few bad habits that we’d like to get out of. But how do you do it? I have a few suggestions that have helped me and people around me. Here are some tips that can help you to finally get out of that bad habit.

2. If you tell people around you that you will stop smoking or start to exercise three times a week, then they will check up on you. And you will feel you have to keep your promise because it is let out into the world.

Avoid temptations (诱惑). 3. Places where you are likely to spend too much money. Things in your cupboard that will not help you to get healthier and you should not have at home at all. And people that drag（拉）you down and back into your old ways.

4. It may seem like a good idea to change your life all at once. In our daily life, stress and lack（缺乏）of energy usually lead to failure. Don’t try to be Superman or Wonder Woman. Take it easy and break one habit at a time.

5. You will probably not succeed the first time you do it. You fail and you make mistakes when you make changes and try new things. That’s just life and nothing to feel bad about. What you should do next is try again.

A．Know what usually gets you into bad habits.

B．Simple tips for getting out of bad habits.

C．See your future in your mind.

D．If at first you don’t succeed, please try again.

E. Tell your friends and family.

Have you ever tried to draw a straight line, only to find it turns out all wrong? Or, wanted to show 1 at a party but the song you’d practised so many times suddenly 2 more difficult?

I've had both these 3 ．As a Senior 3 student, I have to 4 many exams．Each time, I enter one, thinking “I 5 fail this time．”, I get a low mark．

But don't be surprised --- it's not 6 we don't try, or do enough preparation, 7 take it seriously．On the contrary, it is because we put ourselves under too much 8 ．It is thinking: “I must…” that makes us taste the terrible flavor of 9 ．

We often 10 to our friends: “Don't be too hard 11 yourself!” But when we 12 our own goals, we may not listen to our own advice．

In doing so, we are making our path to success increasingly difficult．

So why not 13 this crazy pursuit to get the best? Just face the problem 14 before you with a calm mind, enjoy the hard work and you will succeed．

In my opinion, 15 a calm state of mind is a skill for life．For people who want to succeed, 16 this is a very important lesson．

So 17 time when you're trying to draw a straight line or 18 a performance, tell yourself: “If I can just do it better than last time, it's a 19 ．”

　　 There is a big question making the rounds among the parents at my daughter’s class．Should the kids refer to the parents，friends as “Mr. Jones” or “Mrs. Smith”，rather than using their first names? I was quite shocked，having come from a home where it would have been unheard of to refer to one of my parents，friends by their first names．This was reserved for only the closest of family friends and relatives，and even they always had “Aunt” or “Uncle” in front their name.

　 Respect is something that is earned．Unlike many of the other virtues we try to nurture (培养)in our kids，respect is a bit more complicated．It is not only necessary when dealing well with others，but the virtue of self-respect is critical for kids to succeed and feel good about themselves and their choices throughout their lives．

　 There are several factors that can have a big impact on kids and their ability to be respectful．The first one to consider is manners．Calling adults by their surnames，setting proper examples during sporting events and while driving, and how we talk to each other in our homes all can have an enormous effect on a child’s concept of respect and how important it is．Many of these seemingly trivial(微小的)ideas have become almost outdated，but one should seriously consider the value of these ideas before casting them aside．It is easy to become unaware of these behaviors．Try to keep track of how often your child is subjected to this kind of disrespect．

　 The media, as you may have guessed，plays a large part in the increase in disrespect．Movies are equally to blame，with a PG movie often containing an abundant amount of profane language.

　 These factors and others all contribute to an alarming increase in disrespect in society．If we don’t step in and change course，we will find living in a morally respectful culture unlikely.

67．What does the author think of kids’ referring to parents’ friends by their first names?

A．It is common in his family．　 B．It is OK if the friends are close.

C．Such behavior lacks respect．　 D．Such behavior sounds funny.

68．What advice does the author give in the passage?

　 A．Parents should correct kids’ bad behavior before children．

　 B．Parents should mind their behavior before children．

　 C．Parents should nurture kids’ self-respect from birth．

　 D．Parents should choose suitable movies for kids．

69．The underlined word “profane” in the fourth paragraph means“　　 “

A．rude　 B．simple　 C．complicated D．respectful

70．What would be the best fide for the passage?

A．Teaching kids respect　 B．How to respect others

C．Respect is a virtue　　　 D．Respecting others is respecting yourself
