A
Everybody， at some point in their lives， has experienced
failure. It could be something as simple as not getting the job you
wanted， or getting fewer marks even after hard work. But what
makes you is not your failure， but how you get back up after being
hit.
Once， a young school boy was caught in a fire accident in his
school and was assumed that would not live. His mother was told
that he was sure to die， for the terrible fire had destroyed the lower
half of his body. Even if he were to survive， he would be lame
（瘸的） throughout his life.
But the brave boy not want to die nor did he want to be lame.
Much to the amazement of the doctor， he did survive. But
unfortunately from his waist down， he had no motor ability.
However， his determination to walk was unshakable. When he
was not in bed， he had to stay in wheelchair. One day， he
reached the fence， raised himself up and then began dragging
himself along the fence， firmly determined. He did this every day，
with faith that he would be able to walk unaided. With his iron
determination， he did develop the ability to stand up， then to
walk on and off， then to walk by himself and then to run.
He began to walk to school， and then run to school. Later in
college he was on the track team.
In February 1934， in New York city’s Madison Square
Garden， this young man who was not expected to survive， who
would surely never walk， Dir. Glenn Cunningham， ran the
world’s fastest mile.
A good example of the power of positive thinking and faith in
one’s self， Glenn Cunningham continues to be an inspiration for
many， and his story， a brilliant evidence to how one can bounce
back even when all difficulties are piled （堆）against one， to the
degree that death seemed the preferable option.

Two of the saddest words in the English language are “if only”. I
live my life with the goal of never having to say those words，
because they convey （传达） regret， lost opportunities，
mistakes， and disappointment.
My father is famous in our family for saying， “Take the extra
minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule.
When my children were young and likely to cause accidents， I
always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment，
whether it was something minor （较小的） like moving a cup full of
hot coffee away from the edge of a counter， or something that
required a little more work， such as taping padding （衬垫） onto
the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.
I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to
safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal
relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regrettedthat they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive
you”. When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor
across from my office on Good Friday， I told him that it was a
holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here. But then I thought
about the fact that he’s 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn’t
give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had
decided to go to work on my day off after all.
I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only”
about something， but my life is definitely better because of my
policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And
even though it takes an extra minute to do something right， I know
that I’m doing the right thing.
5. Which of the following can be an example of the “extra minute”
rule？
A. Start the car the moment everyone is seated.
B. Leave the room for a minute with the typing.
C. Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better.
D. Move an object out of the way before it trips someone.

7. The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to.
A. keeps her appointment with the eye doctor
B. meets her father who was already an old man
C. joins in the holiday celebration of the company
D. finishes her work before the deadline approached
8 What does the author mainly want to tell us？
A. We should take the extra minute to do things right.
B. We should do everything possible in our life.
C. It’s important to avoid “if only” moments.
D. “If only” is the saddest words in English.

Pigs are always considered dirty animals because they roll in
mud. But in fact they prefer being quite clean. They coverthemselves with mud to help stay cool. During cooler weather，
they prefer to stay clean. So do elephants， who also cover
themselves in dust or mud to keep cool. When they find a place with
clean water they will take a bath， using their long noses to give
themselves—or each other—a nice shower.
Some animals use dust to get clean. Chinchillas （南美洲栗鼠）
have very fine fur. They don’t like to take water baths because water
is not warm enough for them. So， instead， they roll around in
fine dust. The dust helps to keep their fur and skin dry. This protects
them from disease.
Usually， a small bird is a light meal for a crocodile. But when a
crocodile wants its teeth cleaned， it lies on the ground with its
mouth open. The crocodile bird goes in and picks out any parasites
（寄生虫） between the crocodiles teeth or under its tongue. The
crocodile gets its mouth cleaned， and the crocodile bird gets
dinner.
You wouldn’t think fish would need baths. But some undersea
parasites live under the fish’s skin. “Cleaner” fish， like the wrasse
（隆头鱼）， help take them away. The wrasse stands on its head
and dances to signal a big fish that it is ready to go into the cleaning
business. The big fish will stop moving and open its mouth wide so
the wrasse can swim inside and pick out parasites and bits of food.
9. What can we learn about pigs from Paragraph 1？
A. They like to stay cool and clean.
B. They can help each other take baths.
C. They are dirtier during cooler weather.
D. They prefer taking baths to rolling in mud.
10. Why do chinchillas like to roll around in fine dust？
A. It makes them warm.
B. It keeps them healthy.
C. It is a cure for illness.
D. It is a way to play.
11. What can we infer from the last paragraph about the
wrasse？
A. It likes being under other fish’s skin.
B. It is often eaten by other fish.C. It is relatively small.
D. It likes taking baths.
12. The text is mainly about how animals.
A. helps each other B. gets their food
C. takes baths D. stay clean

much 2 too little.”
His son looked 3 （surprise）， “I can understand why I
shouldn’t pay too much， Dad， but if I can pay less， why not
save a bit of money？”
“That would be a very 4 （reason） thing to do in a big city，
but it could destroy a small village like 5 （we），” Nick said.
Nicks guests， 6 had heard their conversation， asked why
they should not buy salt more cheaply if they could. Nick replied，
“The only reason a man would sell salt 7 a lower price would be
that he was desperate for money. And anyone who took advantage
of that situation would be showing a lack of respect for the sweat
and struggle of the man who worked very hard 8 （produce） it.”“But such a small thing couldn’t 9 （possible） destroy a
village.”
“In the beginning， there was only a very small amount of
unfairness in the world， but everyone added a little， always
10 （think） that it was only small and not very important， and
look where we have ended up today.”
