| 阅读理解。 | Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family,
health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is
a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (弹跳) back.
But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these,
it will be broken. They will never be the same You must understand that and try to have balance in your
life. How?
Don"t look down on your worth loy comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different
and each of us is special.
Don"t let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.
Don"t give up when you still have something to give. (3) Nothing is really over until the moment you
stop trying.
Don"t be afraid to fight difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don"t shut love out of your life by saying it"s impossible. (4) The quickest way to receive love is to
Sive it; the fastest way to lose iove is to hold it too tightly (紧紧地); the best way to keep love is to
give it wings.
Don"t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you"ve been,but also where you
are going.
Don"t be afraid to learn.Knowledge is weightless.It"s a treasure (珍宝) you can always carry
easily.
Don"t use time or words carelessly. You can"t get them back.
Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery (秘密), and today is a gift: that"s why we call
it "the present".

Will you be happy if you have a new Nike T-shirt on? Probably you will. But what if you see
a friend 1 a more fashionable (时髦的) and more beautiful one? You may not feel as satisfied
2 you expect to and the feeling of happiness may disappear in a minute.
Why are we not so happy as we should be? The secret is: we focus on (专注) what we want
instead of what we have. We keep making our list of desires(愿望) longer and longer. As a result,
we are not pleased with what we have 3 owned. We say to ourselves, "I"ll be happy when this
desire is satisfied. " However, another desire appears when this one is met. So we still don"t feel happy
though we have got what we want. Happiness 4 when we always have new dcsires hard to satisfy.
Luckily, there is a way to be happy. Think more about what we have than what we want. Rather
than wish you were 5 to have an enjoyable vacation on the beach, think of 6 fun you have
had near home. Similarly, instead of hating to do much homework, 7 teachers for making you have
the chance to practice more. The list of what you have can also be endless. Each time you find yourself
falling into a "I wish life were different" trap (陷阱), take a deep breath and think of 8 you have ever
had.
Pay more attention to what you have, and you"ll probably get more of what you want. 9 example,
your good attitude toward doing homework can bring excellent grades in exams because 10 makes
perfect. Start to focus on what we have! The more we feel satisfied,the more happily we"ll live. | ( )1. A. wearing

| | 阅读理解。 | I am a writing teacher at a middle school.
At the end of a writing class, I asked the students to share what they had written. We had a new
student at the school, Al. Al had been with us for only a short while and was still trying to fit in (适应),
so I was a little surprised when he volunteered to read. I asked him to read, but inside I wished that the
other students would not laugh at him.
Al began to read, "If I had one wish, it would be to meet my dad..." He started out loud and clear.
He told how he had never seen his father. He told how he tried to be the only man in the house at such
a young age.
I took a look at the students. I knew some kids liked to laugh at others. However, all of my students
were listening. They were letting him do this, I thought. They were allowing him to share something.
"If I had one wish, it would be to meet my dad, so I wouldn"t have to close my eyes every night just
wondering what he looks like," Al finished. The class stood up and applauded (鼓掌). They all ran to Al
with hugs. My eyes got wet.
This is why I teach. I teach because I can watch kids grow and laugh and learn and love. | | 1. The writer is _____ at a middle school. | A. an English teacher

When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us as humans, so I said, "My ears,
Mommy." She said, "No. Many people are deaf. But you keep thinking about it and I will ask you again
soon."
Several years passed before she asked me again. Since making my first attempt, I had contemplated the
correct answer. So this time I told her, "Mommy, sight is very important to everybody, so it must be our
eyes." She looked at me and told me, "You are learning fast, but the answer is not correct because there are
many people who are blind."
Over the years, Mother asked me a couple more times and always her answer was, "No, but you are
getting smarter every year, my child."
Then last year, my Grandpa died. Everybody was hurt. Everybody was crying. My Mom looked at me
when it was our turn to say our final good-bye to Grandpa. She asked me, "Do you know the most important
body part yet, my dear? " I was shocked when she asked me this now. I always thought this was a game
between her and me. She saw the confusion on my face and told me, "This question is very important. It
shows that you have really lived your life." I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said, "My dear, the most
important body part is your shoulder." I asked, "Is it because it holds up your head?" She replied, "No, it is
because it can hold the head of a friend or loved one when they cry.
Everybody needs a shoulder to cry on sometime in life, my dear. I only hope that you have enough love
and friends that you will have a shoulder to cry on when you need it." Then and there I knew the most
important body part is not a selfish one. It is sympathetic to the pain of others. | 1. What did the writer"s mother ask him?
