for the worse by his new baby sister. He quickly joins up with a group of other free-spirited monkeys, but finally
returns to his family and understands the meaning of responsibility.

known for their rapid attack and quick footwork, have inspired a form of pictographic boxing（象形拳）in Shaolin
martial arts（少林武术）.

Nobody wants to lose, but we must accept that losing is a part of life. After all, we can’t win all the time.
However, we can learn something valuable from every failure. So we must know how to be a good loser.
When we lose, just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of it. Failure can’t be avoided in our life.
Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb (灯泡). When he was asked how he felt, he said that he
hadn’t failed 10,000 times but had learned 10,000 things which didn’t work.
We must accept our failure and learn to take advantage of it. Remember that it can be helpful when we begin
to take action to walk out of it and think about how we can improve. If someone else can help, we’ll be lucky
enough. Maybe he or she has been through the same experience before. Many people enjoy helping others solve
problems. This can greatly save us time in learning how to avoid the same mistakes in the future.
There is only one winner in every competition. Some win, while some lose. That is a usual way of life. If we
offer our congratulations to the winners and share their happiness, we won’t feel sorry when facing our failure.
In a word, being a good loser will help us to succeed in life. Good losers set examples to us, and most
importantly, they will finally win.
Failure is normal in our life. Learning how to be a good loser is important because every failure can teach
us ____49____ lessons. When we lose, we should learn to find its ____50____ side. Edison has set a good
example for us. Failure can help us to be better when we take action and think about how to ____51____
ourselves. Besides, it will be lucky for us to be helped by others, because this will also ____52____ save us time
to learn how to stop making the same mistakes. At last, we should offer to send our congratulations to the
winners. To share their ____53____ can make us face our failure more bravely. Anyway, being a good loser willhelp us to succeed in life.

请阅读下面的非连续性文本，根据语篇内容，回答问题，并将答案写在答题卡相应的位置上。
Feeling like you are under too much pressure? Have you ever lost sleep worrying about tests and schoolwork?
Eating on the run because your schedule is just too busy?
You’re not alone. Everyone feels stressed out at times. Comfort Zone is a state（状态）of mind where there is
the least stress. Stepping into the learning zone can help to bring out the best in us. Here are the reasons.
News: First Blind Person reaching Qomolangma
Eric lost his sight（失明） in his early teens. He never allowed his disability to stop him.
He believed that he could do as well as any teenager. He also challenged himself to climb
Qomolangma and succeed in doing what a normal person can not do.
▶ Challenging yourself can help us do at our best. Stepping outside one’s comfort zone is important to
personal development. How can we expect to make ourselves better if we only stick to habit and routine（日
常）? We should try something we might not succeed at. We may achieve something unexpected after trying it.
▶ 冒险可以帮助我们成长 . As children, we’re natural risk-takers. But as we get older and learn to fear
failure, we start trying fewer new things. We pay a heavy price for our fear of failure. There is no learning without
some difficulties.
▶ Facing new challenges can help us age better. Our comfort zones seem to become smaller as we get
older—but if we can keep expanding（拓展）them, we’ll open ourselves up to a greater world as we age. As we
step into the learning zone, we will get more comfortable with the skills gradually and we’ll start to move into the
comfort zone. A study shows that learning new life skills can help our brain stay sharp（敏锐的）as we get older.However, don’t push yourself too far. Have you heard of the Yerkes—Dodson Law（耶克斯——多德森定
律）? It means performance increases as stress grows, but only up to a point. If the level of stress becomes too
high, performance will go down. When stress becomes too high for us to deal with, we enter the danger zone.
Therefore, be clear about the stress level you are at so that you can perform best.
54. Which zone can help you perform best according to the passage?
______________________________________________________________________
55. Please translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.
______________________________________________________________________
56. Why is the example of Erik mentioned?
______________________________________________________________________
57. Please translate the underlined sentence into English.
______________________________________________________________________
58. According to the the Yerkes—Dodson Law, what conclusion（结论）can we draw? （One example is OK. ）
______________________________________________________________________
59. What stress do you have in your life? How do you deal with the stress?
