     I told my friend Graham that I often cycle the two miles from my house to the town centre but
unfortunately there is a big hill on the route. He replied, "You mean _1_." He explained that I should be
glad of the   2    exercise that the hill provided.

     Problems are there to be faced and   8  .We cannot achieve anything with a/an    9  life. Helen Keller
was the first deaf and blind person to  10   an University degree. She wrote, "Character cannot be  11  in
ease and quiet. Only through   12    of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared,
ambition inspired and success achieved."
     One of the main  13    of success in life is our attitude towards adversity. At times we all face
hardships, problems, accidents and difficulties. 14    we cannot choose the adversity, we can choose our

举一反三
阅读理解。     I was 15 months old, a happy carefree (无忧无虑的) kid, until the day I fell. It was a bad fall. I
landed on a piece of glass that cut my eye badly. My mom found a doctor who knew that if the eye
were removed, my face would look ugly, so my scarred (有疤痕的), sightless, cloudy gray eye lived
on with me.
     Sometimes people asked me embarrassing questions. When kids played games, I was always the
"monster". I grew up imagining that everyone looked down on me.
     Yet Mom would say to me, "Hold your head up high and face the world." I began to rely on that
saying.
     As a child, I thought Mom meant, "Be careful or you will fall down or bump into something because
you are not looking." As a teenager, I usually looked down to hide my shame (羞愧). But I found that
when I held my head up high, people liked me.
     In high school I even became the class president, but on the inside I still felt like a freak (怪物). All
I really wanted was to look like everyone else. When things got really bad, I would cry to my mom and
she would look at me with loving eyes and say, "Hold your head up high and face the world. Let them
see the beauty that is inside."
     When I met the man who became my husband, we looked each other straight in the eye, and he told
me I was beautiful inside and out.
     My mom"s love was the spark (火花) that gave me confidence. I had faced hardships, and learned
not only to appreciate myself but to have deep compassion (怜悯) for others.
     "Hold your head up high" has been heard many times in my home. Each of my children has felt its
invitation
. I say it to my children. The gift my mom gave me lives on in another generation.1. Why did the author"s mother tell her to hold her head up high and face the world?A. Because her mother wanted to show sympathy for her.
B. Because her mother wanted her to be confident.
C. Because her mother didn"t want her to be seen as a "monster".
D. Because her mother thought the author looked prettier when she did that.2.  Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?A. The author managed to get over her disability in high school.
B. The author gave her children encouragement and love, as her mother had given her.
C. The author was always confident after the accident.
D. In high school the author was chosen to be president of the student"s union.3. The underlined sentence "Each of my children has felt its invitation." means her children ________.A. each received an invitation from her mother
B. didn"t quite understand the meaning of her words.
C. faced the same difficulty as their mother.
D. benefited from their mother"s words.4. Which would be the best title for the article?A. My mom"s gift to me
B. How I found my life-partner
C. My terrible childhood accident
D. Disability is no shame

阅读理解。     Can dogs and cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting
a dog as a friend for their cats are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new recipe
of success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when
still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get
along swimmingly. Two-thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat
and dog.
     However, it wasn"t all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in
25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason for this
is probably that some of their body signals were just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head
away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submission (恭维).
     In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behavior. They are
learning how to talk each other"s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk "dog", and dogs
can learn how to talk "cat".
     What"s interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to develop their intelligence. They can
learn to read each other"s body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in common than we
preciously suspected. Once familiar with each other"s presence and body language, cats and dogs can
play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping together in the sofa. They can easily
share the same water bowl and in some cases groom (梳理) each other.
     The significance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets-to people who don"t get along,
including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get
along, surely people have a good chance.1. The underlined word swimmingly in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to______.A. early      
B. sweetly      
C. quickly      
D. smoothly2. Some cats and dogs may fight when_________.A. they are cold to each other      
B. they look away from each other
C. they misunderstand each other"s signals
D. they are introduced at an early age3. It is suggested in paragraph 4 that cats and dogs_______.A. have common interests        
B. are less different than we thought
C. have a common body language
D. are less intelligent than we expected4. What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?A. We should learn to live in harmony
B. We should knows more about animals
C. We should live in peace with animals
D. We should learn more body languages
