.or anything. ____75____ many children all over the world don’t have access

A survey of 1,000 teenagers around the world done by a French company
BIC found that a third of today’s teenagers had never written a letter, halfhad not written a thank-you letter, and a quarter had not even written a birthday or Christmas card.
In fact, 58 percent of teenagers c____82____ that handwriting was “too slow” and 17 percent
believed it was “outdated”.
These results have caused w____83____ that the art of handwriting may one day die out.
“Handwring” is one of the most c____84____ art forms we have and should be given the

D. Answer the questions (根据短文回答下列问题）（12分）
Do you think you’re a lucky person? Let’s see what Professor Richard
Wiseman，a famous psychologist (心理学家)，has discovered about luck:
Ten years ago, I set out a research on luck. I wanted to know why some
people are always in the right place at the right time, while others always
experience ill luck.
Many people volunteered for my research. Over the years I interviewed them, watched their
lives and had them take part in my experiments.
I carried out a simple experiment to discover why there were differences in their ability to find
opportunities. I gave both lucky and unlucky people a newspaper and asked them to look through it
and tell me how many photographs were inside.
I had secretly placed a large message halfway through the newspaper saying, “Tell the researcher
you have seen this and win $50.”
This message took up half of the page and was more than two inches high. It was
staring everyone straight in the face, but unlucky people tended to (倾向于）miss it andlucky people tended to spot it.
Unlucky people are just more nervous than lucky people. They are busy looking only for what
they need and this stops them from noticing the unexpected. As a result, they miss out on
opportunities.
Lucky people tend to be more relaxed and open. They can see everything that is in front of
them, rather than just what they are looking for.
My research shows that lucky people live by several principles (原则). Here are some
of these principles:
1. Opportunities are always given to those who are prepared.
2. Be open to new experiences and break your normal thought patterns (模式).
3. Spend a few moments each day remembering things that went well.
4. See yourself being lucky before an important meeting or phone call.
88. How long has Professor Richard Wiseman studied on luck?
________________________________________________________________________.
89. What did the volunteers do for the professor during the research?
________________________________________________________________________.
90. What’s the purpose of Professor Richard Wiseman’s small experiment?
________________________________________________________________________.
91. The message in the newspaper was so small that unlucky people couldn’t find it,
wasn’t it?
________________________________________________________________________.
92. Why did the unlucky fail to find the message in the newspaper according to the research?
________________________________________________________________________.
93. Which principle of the four is the most important in your opinion? Why?
________________________________________________________________________.VII Writing (作文):(共20分）
94. Write at least 60 words on the topic “______ help(s) me grow ”（以“______助我成长”为
题，写一篇不少于60个词的短文，标点符号不占格）
