What’s the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions(提到) hard-work, others suggest knowledge, love and luck.
If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically(按字母表的順序)and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c…, you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11="98," meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5="96," while love:12+15+22+5="54," and luck : 12+21+3+11="47," a small mark. None of these words can give one a full mark. What about money or prayer(祈禱)? They can’t , either.
Then what else? Don’t be worried.You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude(態(tài)度).Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100,a full mark.
Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most times people hope for a better life. It is possible that one will have a change for the better after one has changed one’s attitude.
When you change your manner and became friendly towards others, you’ll meet more smiling faces towards you. In the same way, if you take a positive (積極地) attitude towards failure(失敗),you’ll find it’s also rewarding though it has caused you losses.
【小題1】What is the mark of the word “money”?

A.54 B.72 C.96 D.100
【小題2】In the writer’s opinion, what is the most important thing in a person’s life?
A.Hard-work. B.Knowledge. C.Money. D.Attitude.
【小題3】According to the passage, if you meet with problems, the best way out is to _______.
A.a(chǎn)sk for help from others B.say your prayers to God
C.change your attitude D.try maths-solving methods (方法)
【小題4】From the passage we can learn that ______.
A.different attitudes come from different courses of life
B.mathematics can solve every problem easily in our daily life
C.failure sometimes can bring you good if you take a positive attitude
D.none of the English words except “attitude” equals to 100 or more


【小題1】B
【小題2】D
【小題3】C
【小題4】C

解析試題分析:這篇短文告訴我們生活中什么才是最重要的,努力工作?知識?愛?還是運氣?其實最重要的是態(tài)度。生活中我們要保持一個積極的態(tài)度,改變你的態(tài)度,也許你的生活就會改變。
【小題1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段,我們按照26個字母的順序,用數(shù)字來代替他們,如1代表a,2代表b,以此類推,那么money 就是13+15+14+5+25=72,所以money 的分?jǐn)?shù)就是72,故選B。
【小題2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章中Yes, attitude is the word.See for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100,a full mark.我們可以知道,attitude 這個單詞的得分是滿分,故選D。
【小題3】推理判斷題。這篇文章的作者認(rèn)為,在我們的生活中最重要的事是要有一個積極的態(tài)度,所以當(dāng)我們遇到困難的時候,最好的辦法就是改變我們的態(tài)度。故選C。
【小題4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章中最后一句話In the same way, if you take a positive (積極地) attitude towards failure(失敗),you’ll find it’s also rewarding though it has caused you losses.同樣,如果即積極的面對失敗,你會發(fā)現(xiàn)盡管失敗會使你失去一些東西,但是你也會有一些回報。故選C。

Now some women are spending a weekend at Mother’s Camp. There, husbands and children are not allowed. Why would a woman want to take a vacation without her family? Some women say they need time to be alone.
At Mother’s Camp a woman has room to herself. She can sleep, read or watch TV, and no one will bother her. No children will ask, ”Mom, what’s for dinner?” No husband will say, “Oh, dear, I can’t find any clean socks.” In fact almost 50% of women in the United States work outside the home. Many of them work full- time and then come home to a second job – taking care of their homes and families. These working women say one of their biggest problems is housework.

Some women go to Mother’s Camp just to get a break from housework. For two days they don’t cook, they don’t clean, they don’t look after their children and husbands. What do they do?

Do you think there is too much noise in our city? If you live near an airport,you will be unhappy because of a plane often make a loud noise.The sound of planes or heavy vehicles is likely to cause deafness if heard continuously(不斷地).
However, most people in our city do not seem to mind noise. They like to enjoy music when they are doing uninteresting jobs.It is a new danger because pop music,when played through powerful amplifiers(放大器),can reach 120 decibels(120分貝的)at a distance of five feet.A continuous noise of over 85 decibels can cause deafness.It was discovered that many young people in America could hear no better than 65-year-old people.
In the past we used to think that only workers in very noisy places would become deaf.For example,when newspapers and books are being printed,the noise level is over 85 decibels,and some of the workers become deaf.Today,however,scientists believe that 10 percent of the workers in Britain are being deafened by the noise.
Sometimes noise of less than 85 decibels can make some people tired and stressed.We all know that too much noise makes life difficult and unpleasant.It can do great harm to people's health and prevent people from working well.Workers in noisy offices are not as efficient(效率高的)as those in quiet offices.Noise makes people less efficient.Can anything be done to reduce or control noise?
In Britain the government has made several laws to reduce noise.Though the government has spent a lot of money in making airports and main roads quieter,many people think that there are still not enough laws.For example,there are no laws to control the noise of machines.In Japan,America and Norway there are such laws.As a result,workers can be given compensation(賠償)if they become deaf.
【小題1】Some workers become deaf because of ________.

A.hard work B.a(chǎn) continuous noise of over 85 decibels
C.powerful amplifiers D.uninteresting jobs
【小題2】In Britain there are laws to ________.
A.stop workers from becoming deaf B.control the noise of machines
C.keep down noise D.help deaf workers in need
【小題3】Who can be given compensation if they become deaf?

How do you feel when you have to make a speech in front of class? What about when you go to a birthday party? Do you get really shy?
Shyness means feeling nervous or afraid when you’re around other people. Experts have found that more than 80% of middle school students feel afraid to be the center of attention. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences(經(jīng)歷).
It’s OK if it takes you a while to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people. In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It’s just a case of how much.
Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. But some become so shy that they won’t go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay for their food. Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.
If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are cleverer because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. Some great people in history were shy, too.
You see, being shy isn’t all bad. But remember not to let good opportunities(機(jī)會) pass by just because of it! If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practice your spoken English in front of others, just do it! There’s nothing to be afraid of.
【小題1】The underlined phrase “to feel yourself again” in the third paragraph means “________”.

A.感受生活 B.恢復(fù)過來 C.玩得開心 D.尋求幫助
【小題2】What kind of shyness can be bad according to the passage?
A.You find it hard to enjoy yourself at a party.
B.You feel a little nervous when you go to a new place.
C.You seldom go outside, afraid of meeting new people.
D.You have a red face when you’re asked to answer a question in class.
【小題3】If you have to practice your spoken English in class, ________.
A.just do it
B.just refuse to do it
C.you’d better ask someone to help you
D.tell your teacher you’re too shy to do that

A.kids are all born shy
B.you can’t change yourself
C.shy people can also be successful
