As a child, I was truly afraid of the dark and of getting lost; these fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.
Maybe it was the strange   36 things looked and sounded in my familiar room at night that  37 me so much. There was never total  38 , but a streetlight or passing car lights 39   clothes hung over a chair take on the   40  of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my 41  , I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no  42 . A tiny sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the daylight. My   43 would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would   44 very still so that the "enemy" would not discover me.
Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, 45  on the way home from school. Every morning I get on the school bus right near my home--that was no  46 . After school,   47  , when all the buses were  48  up along the street, I was afraid that I'd get on the wrong one, and be taken to some  49 neighborhood. On school or family trips to a park or museum, I wouldn't  50 the leaders out of my sight.
Perhaps one of the worst fears  51 all I had as a child was that of not being liked or   52 by others. Being popular was so important to me  53 , and the fear of not being liked was a 54  one.
One of the processes of growing up is being able to  55 and overcome our fears. Understanding the things that frightened us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life.

Growing up on a tobacco farm, Emma Avery was used to hard times. When she was seven, her family’s farmhouse burned to the ground. Her father made a temporary (臨時(shí)的) shelter, where eight people had to sleep in two beds. As soon as Emma and her four brothers and two sisters were big enough, they were out in the fields.
Emma would find her comfort in school, even as a C student, thanks to one teacher. When she moved on to middle school, Emma was alarmingly far behind her classmates. She kept her head down, trying not to be noticed, struggling to catch up, and feeling like an outsider.
Then one day, when Emma was 16, a teacher named Mr. Potts changed everything. Looking his students in the eye, Mr. Potts said, "Being a C student does not mean you do not have a valuable contribution to make. Some of you have to work in the fields in the evening and do not have time to study. But if you do your best, you have a gift to give."
The teacher’s words made Emma believe she could do well, and she worked harder. In the end she won a scholarship to St. Paul’s College, graduated with a degree in elementary education in 1967, and got a job in the public-school system. Then, at George Washington University, she received a master’s in education in 1970, and afterwards in the same year she married Ron Smothers.
Over the next six years, Emma taught in public schools in Miami. In 1976, after saving $10,000, she opened her first restaurant in Los Angeles. Eventually Emma stopped teaching, and her business expanded (擴(kuò)展) to six restaurants.
In gratitude (感激) for what she has been able to achieve, Emma donates a lot. She has no idea how much money she’s given away. She says, "Those I want to help are the C students who just need help, direction and confidence."
小題1:The first paragraph serves to show that Emma ______.
A．was poor and had no time to study
B．was born on a tobacco farm
C．was sad to lose her house
D．was kind enough to help support the family
小題2:From the text we learn that Emma ______.
A．won a scholarship to George Washington University
B．was unsuccessful as a businesswoman
C．was thankful to Mr. Potts
D．disliked teaching, and gave up the job
小題3:From the second paragraph we can infer that Emma was ______.
A．unintelligent B．unconfidentC．hard-workingD．Considerate
小題4:The text mainly wants to tell us ______.
A．confidence is the first step to success
B．memory of the past is the teacher of the future
C．something attempted, something done
D．nothing is impossible to a willing heart

“Linda, if beating yourself up were an Olympic sport, you’d win a gold medal!”
Annabel, my close friend, stunned（使…震驚）me with that frank observation after I told her how I had mishandled a situation with a student in a third-grade class where I was substituting（代替）. “I should never have let him go to the boy’s room without a pass! It was my fault he got into trouble with the hall monitor! I’m so stupid!”
My friend burst out laughing, and then made her “Olympic” comment. After a brief period of reflection I had to admit that she was right. I did put myself down an awful lot. Why, just during the previous day I had called myself “a slob” for having some papers spread out on my desk, “ugly” when I left the house without makeup and “an idiot” when I left the house for an emergency substitute job without my emergency lesson plan.
In a more reflective tone, Annabel said, “I once took a workshop at church where the woman in charge had us list all the mean things we say about ourselves.”
“How many did you have on your list?” I asked.
“Fifteen,” she confessed. “But then the teacher said, ‘Now turn to the person next to you and say all the items on your list as if you were speaking to that person!’ ”
My jaw dropped，“What did you do?”
“Nothing. Nobody did. We all just sat there, until I said, ‘I could never say these things to anyone else!’ ”
“And our teacher replied, ‘Well, if you can’t say them to anyone else, then don’t ever say them to yourself!’ ”
My friend had a point. I would never insult a child of God---and I’m God’s child, too!
God, today let me be as kind to myself as I would be to another of Your children.
小題1:What does Annabel mean by the first sentence of the passage?
A．The writer is a good athlete.
B．The writer scolds herself too much.
C．She is encouraging the writer
D．A gold medal is not a big deal.
小題2:What does the writer intends to tell us through the second and third paragraphs?
A．She has low self-esteem over some small things.
B．She often makes serious mistakes in daily life.
C．She is a third-grade teacher.
D．She cares too much about her appearance.
小題3:We can infer that the underlined word “slob” might be _____.
A．something untidyB．someone dangerousC．something dirtyD．someone lazy
小題4:What can we learn about Annabel?
A．She used to put herself down a lot.
B．She often goes to church.
C．She was in charge of a workshop.
D．She used to be too shy to talk to others.
小題5:What does the writer mean by the last sentence of the passage?
A．She is ready to turn to God for help.
B．She will be kind to all children.
C．She won’t insult(侮辱) herself as well as others.
D．She is willing to be a child of God.

A few days ago, I went to school with lots of books，hoping to get a locker (鎖柜). Suddenly, it started raining heavily. I hurried to pay for my locker, but I was disappointed when they informed me they only accepted cash. I was $ 7.00 short, which meant I had to carry the books back home. It would be an exhausting (令人精疲力竭的) two-hour journey back home with all those books.
An elderly gentleman nearby noticed my problem. He asked how much cash I needed. When I told him I was $7 short, he quickly took out the money from his wallet .“You don’t have to pay me back ,”he said. I was speechless; I didn't know whether to take the money or come back with the books the next day. A young student who was working there noticed my hesitation. “He’s really nice ,”said the student. I was starving this morning and he bought breakfast for me. He always helps people in different ways.
The next day, I went to him and thanked him for trusting me and lending me the money. He said he forgot about it and didn't expect I would give it back. “I’m very happy,” he said,“not because I’m getting my money back, but because this is the right way to go---whatever you get from this world, give it back as much as you possibly can. Spread kindness around the world with the smallest things you can do.”
Later, I found out he wasn’t involved with any charity（慈善）organizations. He has been performing these types of acts for years. Earlier, someone had done something incredibly kind for him and he has been spreading the kindness ever since.
He taught me a very important lesson in life. We come to this world with nothing and we will leave with nothing. Whatever we own, it will become somebody else’s and whatever we leave, it will become somebody else’s.  
小題1:Why did the writer need a locker in the school?
A．To help him get away from the sudden rain.
B．To store his large quantity of books.

小題2:When the old gentleman offered the money, the writer was________.

小題3:From Paragraph 3 we learn that ________.

I have a friend who lives by a three-word philosophy: Seize the moment. Just possibly, she may be the wisest woman on this planet. Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they haven't thought about it, don't have it on their schedule, didn't know it was coming or are too strict to depart from their routine.
I can't count the times I called my sister and said,“How about going to lunch in half an hour?” She would gasp and stammer(結(jié)結(jié)巴巴地說(shuō)), “I can't. I have clothes on the line. My hair is dirty. I wish I had known yesterday. I had a late breakfast. It looks like rain.”And my personal favorite response:“It's just Monday.”She died a few years ago. We never did have lunch together. From then on, I've tried to be a little more flexible.
Life has a way of going faster as we get older. The days get shorter, and the list of promises made to ourselves gets longer. One morning, we awaken, and all have to show for our lives is repetition of “I'm going to”,“I plan on” and “Someday, when things are settled down a bit.”
When anyone calls my“seize the moment” friend, she is open to adventure and available for trips. She keeps an open mind on new mind on new ideas. Her enthusiasm for life is contagious. You talk with her for five minutes, and you're ready to trade your bad feet for a pair of Rollerblades and skip an elevator for a bungee cord.
My lips have not touched ice cream in 10 years. I love ice cream. The other day, I stopped the car and bought a triple-decker. If my car had hit an iceberg on the way home, I would have died happy.
Now go on and have a nice day. Do something you WANT to, not something on your SHOULD DO list.
小題1:The example of the writer's sister serves as__________.
A．a(chǎn)n argumentB．a(chǎn)n introductionC．a(chǎn) supportD．a(chǎn) conclusion
小題2:The writer thinks that the underlined excuse “It's just Monday.”is acceptable, because __________.
A．it is still likely that they can have lunch together some time later
B．it sounds most reasonable of all the excuses.
C．it shows respect for the writer's suggestion
D．it indicates the time when they can have lunch together
小題3:The underlined word “contagious” in the fourth paragraph means “_________”.
A．a(chǎn)ppropriateB．influentialC．practicalD．evident
小題4:What is the purpose of the writer by writing this passage?
A．To suggest how time flies.
B．To persuade busy people to relax.
C．To advise people to keep their promise.
D．To convince readers to be flexible on their schedule for practical joy.

You have the ability to decide if you are happy or not. Happiness is a choice.
You can't depend on someone else to make you happy. That is a lesson I learned early on in my marriage. I realized that I couldn't rely on my husband as my source of happiness. I learned that my happiness depended on me and not my husband's actions. I learned that you have to choose to be happy.
You can choose your emotions. True happiness comes from within; it can't be forced by outside forces. So how do you choose happiness? The same way you choose to smile or choose to wear a certain outfit. You choose it because that's what you want to experience in your life.
You want to buy a new pair of shoes so you choose a pair that you like and feel good. You wouldn't buy a pair of shoes that you don't like or that don't fit well, right? So why do we keep choosing emotions and feelings that don't make us feel good?
Choosing to be happy after you realize your anger has shown up (or even choosing to be calm) can be beneficial. We choose our feelings; no one can do that for us. If we let others get to us, influence our emotions - we are giving them power over us. When others cause us anger or pain, we are giving them our power.
We need to keep our feelings in check and not react automatically to what is thrown at us. We need to think our actions out instead of just reacting to what someone says or does.
Remember that we can always choose happiness. At first it will be difficult to just switch your thoughts and feelings from anger, self-doubt, or fear to joy and happiness. But it is only a thought away. Don't dwell on what happens to you unnecessarily but realize what is causing you to feel that way. Realize that thoughts, feelings and emotions can change. Then move on and choose to be happy.
小題1:What’s the best title of this passage?
A．Choose to Be HappyB．Choose Your Emotions
C．Pretend to Be HappyD．Find Happiness
小題2:The lesson the writer learned in her marriage is ________.
A．she can depend on her husband to find happiness
B．balancing the relationship between the husband and wife is an art
C．one can’t rely on someone else to make himself or herself happy
D．happiness can be influenced by outside forces
小題3:Why did the writer mention buying shoes?
A．To use it as an example to show the importance of choosing to be happy.
B．To offer advice on how to choose comfortable shoes.
C．To compare choosing shoes and choosing an outfit.
D．To help to move to the next paragraph easily.
小題4:The writer suggests that we should ________.
A．let others control our feelings
B．respond immediately to others’ words
C．pay more attention to words than actions
D．hold back our feelings properly

In March 1987, I started a new magazine called Creating Excellence. It was a very proud moment for me. I’d worked hard for over a year to create it, and the premiere issue (首次發(fā)刊) was a real success.
Shortly after we mailed 25,000 copies, I received one in the mail. But this one wasn’t as beautiful as the ones we’d sent out. It was marked in red ink correcting the grammatical errors (語(yǔ)法錯(cuò)誤) in it. A talented editor had read the issue carefully and found more errors than I could have imagined.
I felt abashed. A magazine called Creating Excellence should be perfect in its content (內(nèi)容). The stories were good, but the errors this woman had found showed that we were far from being excellent.
At first, I was upset with my editor for not having caught more mistakes, and also upset with the woman who seemed to have taken pleasure in pointing them out. Later, I was upset with myself for not having employed a better editor.
Then I realized that I had to face up to my mistakes. I called the woman who had shown me that we were not so excellent. I thanked her for taking the time to read our magazine so carefully. As painful as it was, I accepted responsibility for it.
Then I offered her the job of editing our publication. The result was a great improvement in it; we could now be very proud of our magazine.
From this I learnt that an upsetting moment could be an opportunity to see the truth, and accepting responsibility could help to prevent one making the same mistakes for a second time, and to make "excellence" a reality.
小題1:From the first paragraph we learn that _____.
A．the author put little effort into his first magazine
B．the author’s job was selling magazines
C．the author was very satisfied with his work
D．the author experienced a total failure
小題2:What does the underlined word "abashed" mean?
A．excited.B．embarrassed.C．interested.D．exhausted.
小題3:What do we learn about the woman who had found the errors in the magazine?
A．She was causing trouble on purpose.
B．She liked pointing out the errors of others.
C．She contributed a lot to the success of the premiere issue.
D．She ended up joining the magazine.
小題4:What do we learn from this passage?
A．Pride is the biggest enemy of success.
B．Success is behind many failures.
C．Picking holes in something can help you find a job.
D．Accepting responsibility for one’s errors can lead to real excellence.

About fifty years ago, when television first came out, people thought that radio was no longer useful. Television has both sounds and images（影像）. It is much more real and interesting to watch television than to listen to the radio.
However, fifty years later radio is still very popular and it will be here for a long time. One reason is that we don’t need to see an image when we listen to the music on the radio. In fact, listening with your eyes closed is the best way to listen to a piece of music. You can imagine yourself on a sandy beach or up high on a mountain. In other words, you can create your own images. Moreover, while listening to the radio, you don’t have to take your eyes off your work. For example, you can listen to the radio and drive at the same time. Or you can read a book and listen to the radio. Television, on the other hand, doesn’t have this advantage.
A radio is much smaller than a television. You can take a radio anywhere and turn it on anytime you want. In a quiet place you can use headphones to listen to the news or music on the radio. In this way you won’t disturb anybody.
Moreover, a radio is much cheaper than a television. For less than $ 20 you can buy a small radio and have fun with it.
小題1:What is the passage mainly about?
A．Music.B．Radio.C．Sound.D．Television.
小題2:People like to watch TV because _______.
A．it has headphones to listen to the news
B．they can drive while watching TV
C．it has both sounds and images
D．they can watch with their ears
小題3:We learn from the passage that _______.
A．people can take a radio anywhere and turn it on anytime
B．television came out 50 years ago and it is useless now
C．a(chǎn) radio is more expensive than a television
D．people can use headphones to read books

Children today would rather toy with new technologies. The role of children has changed as well as that of teens. The world has truly evolved (進(jìn)化）throughout the years.
Today，a typical day in the life of a five year old is entirely different from what it once was. A few decades ago children used to work. They did the kind of work parents do today. Today there are shows on which children are putting pounds of makeup on and have flashing things all over their bodies. This makes a child want to paper over all of their imperfections. They think they have to look perfect all the time.
Teens have changed as well. My grandma got married when she was thirteen. Girls who had an arranged marriage had no time to play because they were expected to cook, clean，take care of the kids, and do housework every single day. Today，we go to school every morning, maybe participate in some after-school activities, and possibly go to work for extra cash. Then we go home and do homework, and eat. After all of this we have to find the time to socialize by texting, talking on the phone, or logging on to social networking sites. We enjoy ourselves a lot.
The generation before us complains about how they did not have the things we have now. They say we are not appreciative and do not value life or just do not care about our futures anymore.
