  Once President Roosevelt's house was broken and lots of

things were stolen.Hearing this, one of Roosevelt's friend wrote to

Him and advises him not to take it to his heart so much.Roosevelt

wrote back immediately, saying: Dear friend, thank you for your

letter to comfort me.I'm OK now.I think I should thank the God.

This is because the following three reasons: firstly, the thief only

stole things from me or did not hurt me at all; secondly, the thief

Has stolen none of my things instead of all my things; thirdly, most

lucky for me, it was the man rather than me who became a thief.

This story tells us what we can learn to be grateful in our life.

答案:
解析:

1. broken后加into; 2. friend改为friends; 3. advises改为advised; 4. √;5. 去掉the; 6. because后加of; 7. or改为but; 8. none改为some; 9. lucky改为luckily; 10. what改为how

  A few weeks ago I was about to take my son to his ice hockey game when I noticed something unusual.He was fully dressed and ready to leave, except that one side of his shirt was tucked(塞)into his trousers while the other side remained hanging out.

  “John, you look great, but you forgot to tuck in your shirt”, I said.

  “Dad, you don't understand…”he replied,“I keep one side of my shirt out on purpose.It's for good luck.”

  And then I understood.Superstitions(迷信)and sports go hand in hand.In fact, I would bet that superstitious behavior has been a part of sports since the beginning of organized games.

  Perhaps you've noticed your own young athlete developing some unusual pre-game rituals(仪式):putting on the same dirty undershirt game after game, wearing one sock up and one sock down, eating a particular pre-game meal, listening to the same song on the tape while riding to the game.

  In fact, from my experience of observing even top professional athletes, superstitions are nothing more than patterns that many athletes go through, not so much to ensure good luck, but rather to help them relax and be comfortable.

  It is unusual for six-or-seven-year-old children to have already developed some sports superstitions, but by the time they're 10 or 11, your kids might begin displaying some odd behavior before a game.As a parent, don't be overly concerned.

  Of course, you'll want to respect your child's requests about wearing that special“lucky shirt”or making certain you feed him that“lucky breakfast”or whatever.Don't put down the ritual.However, you should point out to your child that while it's fine to develop a pre-game ritual to help him or her prepare for a contest, you'll also want to emphasize that one's success in sports is much more a function of hard work, practice and determination.After all, those are the real values you want to put into your child's mind.

  Most superstitions last only as long as the athlete continues to experience“good luck”.Once that streak of good fortune runs out, he'll be glad to drop that undershirt into the washing machine.

(1)

Athletes' superstitions always ________.

[  ]

A.

ensure them good luck

B.

enable them to perform well

C.

does harm to them

D.

make them feel comfortable

(2)

Which of the following statements is NOT true?

[  ]

A.

Most of the odd pre-game behavior is harmless.

B.

Following a pre-game ritual gives the athletes a sense of comfort.

C.

Even though the behavior is harmless to the child, a teammate or an opponent, we still can't say the superstitious behavior is fine.

D.

If a child begins displaying some odd behavior before a game as sports superstitions, a parent needn't worry too much.

(3)

What shouldn't you do according to the passage?

[  ]

A.

Tell your kid more about the top athletes' superstitions and encourage him to do so.

B.

Tell your young athlete:The harder they work at their sports, the luckier they'll become.

C.

Respect the rights and privacy of some kids who don't want to talk about their superstitions.

D.

Keep a sense of humor about your kids superstitions, and let them do the same.

(4)

The title of the passage should be ________.

[  ]

A.

Getting Rid of“Silly”Superstitions

B.

Dealing with Those“Silly”Superstitions

C.

Supporting Young Athlete's Superstitions

D.

Talking about Superstitions

(5)

According to the writer, why do some top professional athletes turn to superstitions?

[  ]

A.

Because it is sure to bring them good luck.

B.

Because they are not wise enough.

C.

Because they can be relaxed.

D.

Because it is a pre-game ritual.

  Since the pre-historic times, man has had an urge to satisfy his needs.Be it hunger, shelter or search for a mate, he has always manipulated the circumstances to the best of his advantages.Probably this might be the reason why we human are the most developed of all living species on the earth, and probably also in the universe.As we climbed the steps of evolution with giant leaps, we somehow left behind common sense and logical thinking-we   1   that we have stopped thinking ahead of times.

  If you are hungry, what do you do? Grab a piece of your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? Just like your stomach, even your mind is hungry.But it   2   lets you know, because you keep it   3   thinking about your dream lover, favorite star and many   4   not-so-worthy things.So it silently begins to focus on your needs and never let ? 40 ?grow.When mind looses its   6   to grow, creativity gets a full stop.This might be the reason why we all sometimes think “What happens next? ”“Why can’t I think? ”“Why am I always given the difficult problems?” Well this is the aftermath of our own karma of using our brain for thinking of not-so-worthy things.

  Hunger of the mind can be actually satisfied   7   a lot of reading.Now why reading and not watching TV?   8   reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from the childhood.Just like that to   9   other aspects of our life, we have to take help of reading.You have innumerable number of books in this world which   10   answer all your “How to? ” questions.Once you read a book, you just don’t   11   your eyes through the lines, but even your mind decodes(译解)it and   12   it to you.The interesting part of the book is   13   in your mind as a seed.Now this seed is unknowingly used by you in your future to develop new   14  .The same seed if   15   many times, can help you link and relate a lot of things,   16   which you would have never thought in your wildest dreams! This is nothing but creativity.More the number of books you read, your mind will   17   like never before.Also this improves your speaking skills to a large extent and also makes a significant contribution   18   your vocabulary.Within no   19   you start speaking English or any language fluently with your friends or other people and you never seem to run out of the right words at the right time.

  Actually, I had a problem in speaking English fluently, but as I read, I could improve significantly.

  I am still on the path of improvement to stop myself from   20   thirsty for satisfaction.So guys do join me and give food for your thoughts by reading, reading and more reading.Now what are you waiting for? Go, grab a book, and let me know!
