【题目】Read the passage and fill in the blanks with suitable words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其内容通顺。每空格限填一词,首字母已给)

Like many lovers of books, Mary and her husband, Richard Goldman, s1 walked past a bookstore without stopping to look inside. They often talked of opening their own store one day.

In o2 to realize their wish, they started by talking to bookstore owners and researching(调查) the industry. One figure caught their attention: they’d read some- where that roughly 20 percent of books sold were mysteries(推理小说), and many buyers spent more than 300 a year on books. Mary and Richard were t3 mystery readers and owned a big collection of such books.

On Halloween 1992, they opened the Mystery Lovers Bookshop and Cafe near their home. With three children in college it was i4 for the couple to spend all the family’s money to start a shop. To cover the whole $100, 000 cost, they drew some of their savings, borrowed from relatives and from a bank.

The store broke even in its first year, with only $120,000 in sales. But Mary was always coming up with new ways to a5 customers. The shop had a coffee bar and it offered gifts to mystery lovers and served dinners for book clubs that met in the store. She also invited dozens of writers to d6 their stories. Today Mystery Lovers make sales of about 420,000 a year. After paying taxes, business costs and the six part-time sales clerks, Richard and Mary together earn about $34,000.

“The job you love may not go hand in hand with a million-dollar income,” says Richard. “This has always been about an e7 life for ourselves, not about making a lot of money.

【题目】Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)

Everyone has good days and bad days.

Sometimes, you may feel that you're on top of the world and all the questions on your maths test might seem easy. But sometimes you feel frightened or you lose things, and you cannot focus on your school work.

For more than 20 years, scientists have suggested that high self-esteem(自尊)is the key to success. They said that kids who feel good about themselves do better in school and have fewer emotional problems than kids who have a low opinion of themselves.

Now, new research shows that focusing just on building self-esteem may not be helpful. In some cases, having high self-esteem can bring bad results if it makes you less likeable(可爱的)or more upset when you fail at something.

"Forget about self-esteem," says Jennifer Crocker, a psychologist at the University of Michigan, US. "It's not the important thing. " Crockery's advice may sound a bit strange because it is good to feel good about oneself. Studies show that people with high self-esteem are less likely to be sad, anxious, shy, or lonely than those with low self-esteem.

But, after reviewing about 18,000 studies on self-esteem, Roy Baumeister, a psychologist at Florid a State University, has found that building up your self-esteem will not necessarily make you a better person. People with high self-esteem tend to think more of themselves while people with low self-esteem are more likely to rely on their friends when they need help.

Researchers say it is best to listen to and support other people. Set out to create or build something. If you fail at something, try to learn from the experience. "The best therapy(药方)is to know your own weak points," Vohs says. "It's OK to say, 'I'm not so good at that,' and then move on. "
