【題目】 Graham was one of the wisest friends of mine. Once I complained to him that I cycled two miles from my house to the town centre but u【1】 there was a big hill on the way. To my surprise, he replied that I should feel lucky and be glad of the e【2】 exercise the hill provided.
His words shocked me. So almost all of a sudden, my attitude to the hill c【3】 . The next time when I got close to it,
instead of complaining as usual. I told myself that this hill would help me to keep fit. And the r【4】 was that I found the way up the hill was much easier that I had expected -- it cost me nothing but some energy and sweat(汗).
Several days later, I happened to read an article about pilot Douglas Bader. In 1931 both of his legs were lost in a

I think the two cases bring the same message: We cannot a【7】 difficulties in life, but we can choose our attitude

【題目】 Can We Learn More by Trusting than by Not Trusting?
Most of us have been burned by misplaced trust. These experiences lead us to believe that people are too trusting.
But in fact we don't trust enough. A survey about trust in the United States has found that interpersonal trust, a measure (測(cè)量) of whether people think others are in general trust worthy is at its lowest in nearly 50 years.
If people are more trustworthy, why don't we trust more?
When you trust someone, you end up working out whether your trust is justified (證明合理) or not. A child next door asks if he can visit your place. If you accept you will find out whether or not he's a good neighbor. A classmate advises you to adopt a new reading method. If you follow the advice you will find out whether the new method works better than the one you were used to.
However, when you don't trust someone. You never find out whether you should trust them. If you don't invite the child over, you won't know whether he would have made a good neighbor or not. If you don't follow your classmate's advice, you won't know if the new method is in fact superior.
This information means that we learn more by trusting than by not trusting. Moreover, when we trust, we learn not only about specific persons, we learn more generally about the type of situations in which we should or shouldn't trust. We get better at trusting.
When our trust is disappointing, the coats are visible (明顯的), and our reaction (反應(yīng)) changes from trouble all the way to hopelessness. The benefit that we've learnt from our mistake is easy to overlook. However, the costs of not trusting someone we could have trusted are invisible. We won't know about the friendship we could have built if we don't let that child go into our place. We won't realise how useful some advice would have been if we don't use our classmate's tip about the new reading method.
Giving people a chance isn't only the moral (道德的) thing to do. It's also the smart thing to do.
【1】The writer mentions the survey about trust in the United States in Paragraph 2 to show that ________.
A.Americans are popularB.the measure is unbelievable
C.interpersonal trust is importantD.people are short of enough trust
【2】We can ________ to make us get better at trusting.
A.try to refuse other people's help
B.change our feelings of disappointment
C.find out the balance between trust and mistrust
D.make a smart decision and give people a chance
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A.The friendship between friends is trustworthy.
B.The costs of mistaken mistrust are largely hidden.
C.We can get more from not trusting than from trusting.
D.It is unlikely that people are less trustworthy than before.
【4】What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?
A.To stress we should trust other people.
B.To question all the experiences of misplaced trust.
C.To introduce some of the trust that can bring us benefits.
D.To discuss which situation we should or shouldn't trust in.
