When my dad finally finished the triathlon (铁人三项) in Montauk, the crowd cheered. It showed me how his
great effort ____14____ off and it excited my curiosity. I wondered whether a small boy of my size could
____15____ something like that. I found myself saying this out loud and my father overheard me. He encouraged
me and said I could train with him.
Training with my dad ____16____ out to be very challenging. We would get up early for a morning jog, or
go for a swim in the pool after school. After a few weeks of training, I signed up for my first triathlon. Before the

triathlon, my legs already felt like they were made of cement (水泥) .
For me, the real competition began during the run, because now I could see each ____20____ as a goal. No
matter my position in the field, each racer was either following me or being followed. The run part of the race
boiled down to pain tolerance. “Shut up, legs”, one of my favorite sayings, kept me from thinking about the
____21____ feeling. Then I crossed the finish line. I took a breath and then began a celebration with the other
finishers. The sense of achievement was there for all of us.

学科网(北京)股份有限公司It was a cold, rainy day. My mother and I drove to the mountains. It was dangerous to make the two-hour
journey along the highway in such weather. I didn’t want to take the risk. But my mother suggested that we go to
see something at the top of the mountain.
After ten minutes’ driving, we stopped the car and got out. Walking along a path, we turned at a corner.
Gradually, the peace and silence of the place began to fill my mind. From the top of the mountain, I saw several
fields full of flowers, shining like a carpet before us. It looked as if the sun spilled (播洒) gold down the mountain.
A lot of questions came to my mind. Who created such beauty? Why? How?
As we moved on, we saw a sign that read, “Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking.”
The first answer was, “One Woman-Two Hands, Two Feet, and Very Little Brain.” The second was, “One at a
Time. ” The third, “Started in 1971.”
On our way home, I was so shocked by what we had seen. “She changed the world. One bulb (一株) at a time.
She started almost 50 years ago. It was probably just the beginning of an idea, but she kept at it.” I said, “Imagine,
if I had a dream and worked at it, just a little bit every day, what might I have achieved?”
My mother looked at me, smiling. “Start tomorrow.” She said, “Better yet, start today.”
.
25 The writer didn’t want to go to the mountains because ________.
A. she was tired of driving B. their car was running out of gas
C. it was getting dark D. it was not safe to drive in such weather
.
26 The underlined word “path” shares a similar meaning with ________.
A. beach B. road C. bank D. village
27. The passage mainly tells us that ________.
A. beauty always lies on the top of the mountain B. even common people have great wisdom
C. sticking to a dream will bring a big change D. we should enjoy every moment in life

For as long as we can remember, one of the most popular ways parents use to punish their children has been
the “time out”.
It seems that it is a good idea: the child sits on his own to reflect on what he has done. Then, when the time is
up, he will apologize and learn from the mistake.
However, just because it’s something that’s been done for years, that doesn’t mean it is the right thing to do. In
fact, very often, children don’t sit nicely and think about what they’ve done. Instead, they need to be told a few (or
many) times to go back to their places and stay quiet. They’re not reflecting on why they are in the “time out” at all.
More likely than not, they’re probably just really angry, and so are the parents. In the end, both the parents and the
children make each other unhappy, or even angry.
第4页/共11页
学科网(北京)股份有限公司What can parents do to change this situation? You may have already heard of things like peaceful parenting
and gentle parenting. These focus on the relationship between parent and child through building trust and love. So,
instead of starting a “time out”, try something called “time in”. A “time in” needs both parent and child to stay close
until both get calm. After that, the parent and child can discuss what happened and solve the problem together. If
the child can make changes, everyone can then move on.
As we all know, punishment and violence seldom work and will never teach the children what the right way to
act is. A “time in” can be the great time for the children to learn through mistakes. Kids learn how to build their
emotional and social skills through difficult situations. So, instead of punishing them for acting their age, we can
use chances to teach and guide them to a place of learning.
A “time in” may take more time, but it does work.
28. During a “time out”, a child is told to ________.
A. stay outside B. sit alone and reflect
C. make a promise D. return to school
,
29. In the writer’s opinion a “time out” ________.
A. doesn’t always work B. is becoming more popular
C. should be parents’ first choice D. takes too much time
30. When a child has done something wrong, the writer suggests that ________.
A. both teachers and parents discuss how to solve the problem B. the child stays at home and reflects until he
never makes mistakes
C. the child says sorry to his or her parents and learns from mistakes D. parents try something called “time
in”instead of “time out”
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. “Time out” or “time in”? B. Learn from mistakes!
C. Why not “time in”? D. No violence at home!
D
Would you BET on the future of this man? He is 53 years old. Most of his adult life has been a losing struggle
against debt and misfortune. A war injury has made his left hand stop functioning, and he has often been in prison.
Driven by heaven-knows-what motives, he determines to write a book.
The book turns out to be one that has appealed to the world for more than 350 years. That former prisoner was
Cervantes (塞万提斯), and the book was Don Quixote (《堂吉诃德》). And the story brings an interesting
question: why do some people find new energy and creativity to the end of their days, but others go to seed long
before?

学科网(北京)股份有限公司We’ve all known people who run out of steam before they reach life’s halfway mark. I’m not talking about
those who fail to get to the top. We can’t all get there. I’m talking about people who have stopped learning on
growing because they have taken in the fixed attitudes and opinions that all too often come with passing years.
Most of us, in fact, progressively narrow the variety of our lives. We succeed in our field of specialization and
then become trapped in it. Nothing surprises us. We lose our sense of wonder. But, if we are willing to learn, the
opportunities are everywhere.
The things we learn in maturity (成熟) seldom involve information and skills. We learn to bear with the things
we can’t change. We learn to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to please, some people are never
going to love us-an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.
With high motivation and enthusiasm, we can keep on learning. Then we will know how important it is to
have meaning in our life. However, we can achieve meaning only if we have made a commitment to something
larger than our own little egos (自我) , whether to loved ones, to fellow humans, to work, or to some moral concept.
Many of us regard “commitment” with such “caring” jobs as teaching and nursing. But doing any ordinary job
as well as one can is in itself an admirable commitment. People who work toward such excellence whether they are
driving a truck or running a store make the world better just by being the kind of people they are. They’ve learned
life’s most valuable lesson.
32. The passage starts with the story of Cervantes to show that ________.
A. age isn’t a block to achieving one’s goal B. loss of freedom brings out one’s creativity
C. misfortune inspires a man to fight against his fate D. disability cannot stop a man fighting for success
33. What does the underlined part “run out of steam” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. end one’s struggle for freedom B. lose the interest in continuing learning
C. waste one’s energy taking risks D. miss the opportunity to succeed
34. What does the author want to tell us in Paragraph 5?
A. A strong-willed man can bear suffering. B. A wise man can live without self-pity.
C. A man should learn suitable ways to deal with life. D. A man should try to satisfy people around him.
35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To suggest a way of going after excellence in our lifelong career. B. To state the importance of having desire
for learning.
C. To stress the need of shouldering responsibilities at work. D. To provide guidance on leading a meaningful
adult life.

It is the season for taking the time to reflect on what we’re thankful for in life. Spending that time with friends
第6页/共11页
学科网(北京)股份有限公司and family to give thanks is what makes the holidays so special. But why should we limit it to just a few weeks in
the year? Gratitude (感恩) is a muscle we should strengthen year-round to make us healthier, happier humans and
leaders.
Gratitude builds empathy. We often take for granted the simple things in life. Those who recognize the
goodness in life, no matter how simple or automatic, are more likely to be sensitive to the needs of others and to
help whenever they can. Being empathetic to others’ opinions, experiences and backgrounds will make you a better
professional, no matter your career.
Through his research, Emmons, a leading researcher, found that grateful people reported feeling healthier, both
mentally and physically. Specifically, those who were grateful were 25 percent happier than those who weren’t. In
the workplace, well-being is a very important topic when it comes to preventing employee burn-out and
encouraging engagement. Beyond the research that shows that employees who are shown that they are appreciated
are more productive by 50 percent, caring for your employees’ well-being is simply the right thing to do. Offering
fitness classes or carrying out flexible work schedules are just a few things that, when paired with gratitude, can
lead to more productive, engaged and happier working professionals.
Working in a developing, fast-paced industry, we are often surrounded by ambitious people who are always
striving (奋斗) for more and better. Gratitude makes us more self-aware. It challenges us to reflect in the moment
instead of always thinking about the future. It starts by paying attention to what’s going on in our life, and that true
self-awareness is a key factor to being successful in our career.
Gratitude is a powerful tool for making relationships stronger, both at work and in our personal life. People
who express their gratitude tend to be more willing to forgive others and therefore able to create relatively long-
lasting connections.
During my month-long vacation, I made it a point to be reflective during the time I had without disturbances
or deadlines. Part of that was making a mental list of the people, things and experiences I was grateful for in my
life. I decided to reach out to my fifth-grade teacher and thank her for being a positive instructor and a strong
influence on my life.
The old saying goes “It’s never too late to say you’re sorry,” but the same is true of gratitude. Taking the time
to thank people for their work, kindness or empathy-whether it was today, last month or many years ago-makes you
happier, healthier and more self-aware. And that’s a gift worth celebrating 365 days a year.
36. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Wise employers should raise the employees’ sense of well-being. B. Grateful people will live a much longer
life than ungrateful people.
第7页/共11页
学科网(北京)股份有限公司C. People who have self-awareness can succeed without effort. D. Gratitude can ensure the relationship between
people is unbreakable.
37. Why does the author mention his own experience in Paragraph 6?
A. To encourage people to contact with teachers. B. To show it’s never too late to express gratitude.
C. To order people to keep loug-lasting connection. D. To present that his teacher greatly influenced him.
38. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Way to Show Thanks B. The Season for GratitudeC. Being Grateful Year-
Round D. The Special Holiday of Gratitude

阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
Greg Woodburn, a university student, spends a lot of time cleaning sports shoes. Some of them once belonged
to him, some belonged to his friends. But soon the shoes will have new owners, poor children in the US and 20
other countries, thanks to Greg’s Share Our Soles (S.O.S) charity.
Greg was a high school running star in a small town in California. He had to stop running for months because
his knee was injured. “I started thinking about all the things I got from running, the health, the friendships and the
confidence,” he says,“And I realized there are children who don’t even have shoes.”
Greg collected his own sports shoes and then called his friends and the town. His aim was to have 100 pairs by
Christmas 2007. When the number climbed to more than 500 pairs, Greg knew that he could collect sports shoes all
year round.
Now he has set up collection boxes in his town. So far, S.O.S has collected and donated more than 3,000 pairs
of shoes. And Greg has cleaned almost all of them. “People think of it as dirty work,” he says, “but I like doing it
because I feel happy when I’m doing it, it’s not work I want to pass on to someone else.”
In just three years, Greg has started three branches (分部) of S.O.S and there are more and more sports shoes.
For many poor children who have received the shoes, it means opportunity. Two young boys in southern
California used to go to school every other day because they both shared a pair of shoes. They were too big for one
boy and too small for the other. Thanks to S.O.S, each brother received his own pair of shoes. The boys now go to
school every day. When they graduate, they say they will help others, just as Greg helped them.
