A group of swans flew down to a beach where a crow(乌鸦) was jumping around. The crow watched them with disdain(鄙视). “You have no flying skills at all!” he said to the swans. “All you can do is to move your wings. Can you turn over in the air? No, you can’t. Let’s have a flying competition. I’ll show you what real flying is!” One of the swans, strong and young, took up the challenge. The crow flew up and began to show his skills. He showed flying tricks, and then came down and looked proudly at the swan. Now it was the swan’s turn. He flew up, and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him, making all kinds of comments (评价) about his flying. They flew on and on till they couldn’t see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides. The crow was making fewer and fewer comments. He was now so exhausted that he found it hard to stay in the air, and had to try to keep himself from falling into the water. The swan pretended (假装) not to notice, and said, “Why do you keep touching the water, brother? Is that another trick?” “No,” said the crow. He knew he had lost the competition. “I’m in trouble because I am proud! If you don’t help me, I’ll lose my life…” The swan took pity on him, and took him on his shoulders and flew back to the beach. 1.What does the underlined word “exhausted” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Tired. B. Excited. C. Scared. D. Amazed. 2.What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. Flying skills were useless. B. The crow didn’t have a gift for flying. C. The swan was better at long-distance flying than the crow. D. The swan saved the crow because they were good friends. 3.What does the story tell us? A. No pains, no gains. B. Practice makes perfect. C. Being proud makes you fail. D. The early bird catches the worm.

I hid the longest black bag in the garage(车库) two days ago. Tonight, in the dark, I would finally take it away. If everything went OK, it would be done by morning. But I had to be sure no one, not even my wife, saw me. It was more difficult to get away from the party than I expected. I said that the children were tired and needed to get to bed. It was true. But the main reason for leaving was that I wanted to complete my plan. First I had to get the kids to sleep. That was never easy at any time and tonight it was more difficult. The eldest one wanted to know why we left the party early. I told him 10:30 p.m. was not early. As usual, I read them a bedtime story, but I had to stop myself reading too quickly or they would learn my secret. Silence finally came, and feeling like a thief in the night, I went out of the house and into the garage. Taking one end, I carried the bag out from its hiding place and took it into the garden. I was worried that my neighbours might see me and call the police. It was already eleven o’clock. By the light of the moon I started working, trying to make as little noise as possible. And that was not easy with a saw(锯). After working hard, my work was finally completed. I looked down at my watch. It was exactly 4:00 a.m. Then I went inside to have a shower and get a few hours of sleep. It wouldn’t be long now before the kids would rush into my room and wake me up to tell me about the new tree-house Father Christmas brought them this year. 1.Why did the man feel nervous? A. He left the party too late. B. He was afraid of the darkness. C. He didn’t know where the black bag was. D. He worried that others would discover his secret. 2.In what order did the man do the following? a. Read the kids a story. b. Had a shower. c. Worked in the moon night. d. Carried the bag out from the garage. e. Went to a party. A. c-d-a-b-c B. e-a-d-c-b C. a-b-d-e-c D. a-e-d-c-b 3.How would the children feel when they saw the man’s work? A. Sad B. Excited C. Tired D. Angry

When something goes wrong, it can be very pleasing to say, “Well, it’s so-and-so’s mistake.” or “I know I’m late, but it’s not my mistake; the bus was late.” It is probably not your mistake, but once you form the habit of blaming(责怪) somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you start paying attention to how to improve the situation. This is the winner’s key to success. Winners are great at solving problems. For example, if you were late because the bus was late, maybe you need to leave home early. Or, you might call a taxi or call friends for help when in need. For another example, if your workmate causes you problems on the job for short of responsibility(责任心) or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability. Ask to work with a different person, or leave this person with some simple jobs. You should accept that the person is not reliable(可靠的). This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and wisdom so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and chances to develop their own ability. So, stop paying attention to “whose mistake it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success. 1.According to the passage, winners . A. have responsible and able workmates B. meet with fewer difficulties in their lives C. blame themselves rather than others D. deal with problems rather than blame others 2.When your workmate brings about a problem, you should . A. blame him for his short of responsibility B. find a better way to overcome the problem C. tell him to find the cause of the problem D. ask a more able workmate for help 3.When problems happen, winners take them as . A. excuses for their mistakes B. difficulties to greater power C. chances for self-development D. challenges to their workmates 4.Which of the following is the best title for the passage？ A. A Winner’s Secret B. A Winner’s Problem C. A Winner’s Chance D. A Winner’s Achievement

阅读填空 先通读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在文章后表格的空格内填入一个最恰当的单词。每个空格只能填一个单词。 Do you love to travel and enjoy writing about your experiences? In fact, whenever we see something new, we wish to write it down in one form or another. We will be happier if we share our experiences with others. Then how can we write better travel stories? The following may be useful. Memory and notes Don’t believe your memory. You may have a good memory, but you cannot remember everything. You are seeing and hearing so much information while you’re on a trip. When you come back to write about your travel stories, you may forget something. So you should make notes, take photographs, and if possible, take videos. In this way, you can describe your travel and write it down without missing anything. Photographs and your stories Photographs are very helpful for you to remember what you have seen. As you see the photographs, you can describe your experiences easily by remembering the feeling when you took them. When you are writing about your travel stories, make sure they are not too short as your readers may not get the full impressions of them and make sure they are not so long that the reader may get bored.
