【題目】 A little stream ran down from a high mountain far, far away through many villages and forests, until it reached a desert. The stream then thought, “I’ve been through countless difficulties. I should have no problem crossing this desert! But as she started her journey, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed and was very unhappy. “Maybe I can’t reach the ocean in the end,” she said sadly to herself.

At this time, a deep voice came, “If a breeze (微風(fēng)) can cross the desert, so can a river. “It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream replied, “That’s because a breeze can fly, but I cannot.”

“That’s because you can’t give up what you are. If you like to do it, and left yourself evaporate (蒸發(fā)) into the breeze, it can take you across, and you can reach the ocean.” said the desert, “Give up what I am now and disappear into the breeze.”No! No! The little stream could not accept this idea. After all, she had never experienced anything like it before. “The breeze can carry the vapor (蒸汽) across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again to continue its course,” explained the desert very patiently. “And whether you’re a river or vapor, your nature never changes,” continued the desert. Hearing this, the little stream rushed into the open arms of the breeze, while carried her to the next stage of her life.

The course of our lives is like the experience of the little stream. If you want to overcome (克服) the difficulties in your life to head for the success, you should also change the way you used to be.

1The little stream aimed to reach ________.

A.the forestB.the oceanC.the desertD.the river

2Before the stream reached the desert, she didn’t ________.

A.believe in herselfB.meet any difficulties

C.want to cross the dessertD.worry about the journey to the ocean

3The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to (指的是) ________.

A.streamB.breezeC.vaporD.desert

4The last paragraph mainly tells us ________.

A.our lives are as easy as the little stream’s

B.it is difficult for us to succeed

C.we must keep the way we used to be

D.we should change the way we used to be to succeed sometimes

5From the passage, we know that the stream in the end ________.

本文講述的是一條小溪在過(guò)沙漠的時(shí)候,遇到了困難,最后在沙漠的建議下,小溪改變了自己的形態(tài),變成了水蒸氣,在風(fēng)的幫助下,最后越過(guò)了沙漠!

1

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中“Maybe I can’t reach the ocean”可知,小溪的目的地是海洋。故選B

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中“I’ve been through countless difficulties. I should have no problem crossing this desert!”可知,在小溪到達(dá)沙漠之前,它經(jīng)歷了無(wú)數(shù)的困難,所以說(shuō)在此之前它沒(méi)有擔(dān)心過(guò)去海洋的旅程。故選D。

3

詞意猜測(cè)題。stream小溪;breeze微風(fēng);vapor蒸汽;desert沙漠。根據(jù)第三段中“left yourself evaporate (蒸發(fā)) into the breeze”可知,沙漠告訴小溪變成水蒸氣,因?yàn)轱L(fēng)可以穿過(guò)沙漠,所以風(fēng)也可以帶著小溪變成的水蒸氣穿過(guò)沙漠,所以此處it代指breeze。故選B。

4

主旨大意題。結(jié)合全文內(nèi)容可知,小溪在過(guò)沙漠的時(shí)候,遇到了困難,最后在沙漠的建議下,小溪改變了自己的形態(tài),變成了水蒸氣,在風(fēng)的幫助下,最后成功越過(guò)了沙漠,告訴我們一個(gè)道理:為了成功,我們應(yīng)該改變我們過(guò)去的方式。故選D。

5

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中“Hearing this, the little stream rushed into the open arms of the breeze, while carried her to the next stage of her life.”可知,小溪聽(tīng)從了沙漠的建議,它變成了水蒸氣到了風(fēng)中,微風(fēng)帶著它穿過(guò)了沙漠。故選A

【題目】 Early rising makes people able to plan the work for the day. We can’t work well without a good plan. Just as the plan for the year should be made in the spring, the plan for a day should be made in the morning. Early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work, such as to wash our hands and eat our breakfast. So the popular saying says, “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.”

Do you want to be happier? Well, you can do something about it. Some psychologists 心理學(xué)家) believe that 10% of your happiness is due to life conditions and 40% is the result of your own choices. Your own choices include how you manage your time at school, your relationships, your friends, your activities and your health. So you have a lot of control over how happy you feel.1 Here are some tips on how to do that.

Surround yourself with positive 積極的) people. Spend time with positive people and your ideas will become active. On the other hand, good friends will encourage, support, and lift you up when you're down.2

That's also true for the people that we work with Don't try to be perfect. Remember that nothing can ever be perfect.3

Instead think about what you already have. Think about what you've already done. Think of where you are today as a step towards tomorrow. Don't try to be perfect, just try to do things wellwith excellence.

Focus on now. Don't think about all the things that can go wrong, like failing at school or your friend leaving you. Thinking like this only results in worry and stress, which is a waste of time and energy.4 Just worry about making today great, because the best way to be happy is just to enjoy each day.

Compare yourself to yourself, not to other people. There will always be someone smarter, or richer, or better looking or more successful than you. There will always be someone with a bigger house and a bigger boat than you. Someone will always have more. Rather, look at what you have got and who you are, accept and value that. Work toward being a better one than you were last month or last year. 5 And you will feel a lot happier with, and about yourself.

A.They see the best in you, and that helps you see the best in yourself.

B.That way you will be pleased with the progress that you are making.

C.The key is to take control by making choices and developing habits that make you happier.

D.You can control how happy you are, since giving always makes you feel happier.

E.If you can't control tomorrow, don't worry about tomorrow.

F.If you aim for perfection all the time, you will never be satisfied or happy.

G.Your relationship with your parents doesn't have to be perfect before you can be happy.
