In our life, we will have a lot of time to feel low. If there’s one thing that ruins us, which 48 us from doing what we’re 49 capable of and prevents us from achieving our dreams, it is fear of 50 .
Many of us go through our lives never knowing what we could have done and what has often been heard is that if only we hadn’t given up our 51 .
What if you had given up on 52 to talk, walk, read, ride a bike, or any other achievements before you were even five years old? How 53 would your life have turned out if you’d given up instead of 54 with them?
Now, how different has your life been because of the goals you gave up? Because you were afraid that you would fail, how many experiences and opportunities have you 55 out on because you couldn’t get past that invisible barrier of fear!?

Another person’s enthusiasm was what set me moving toward the success I have achieved. That person was my stepmother.
I was nine years old when she entered our home in rural Virginia. My father __36__ me to her with these words: “ I would like you to meet the fellow who is __37__ for being the worst boy in this country and will probably start throwing rocks at you no __38__ than tomorrow morning.”
My stepmother walked over to me, __39__ my head slightly upward, and looked me right in the eye. Then she looked at my father and replied, “You are __40__. This is not the worst boy at all, __41__ the smartest one who hasn’t yet found an outlet(释放的途径) for his enthusiasm.
That statement began a(n) __42__ between us. No one had ever called me smart. My family and neighbors had built me up in my __43__ as a bad boy. My stepmother changed all that.
She changed many things. She __44__ my father to go to a dental school, from which he graduated with honors. She moved our family into the county seat, where my father’s career could be more __45__ and my brother and I could be better __46__.
When I turned fourteen, she bought me a secondhand __47__ and told me that she believed that I could become a writer. I knew her enthusiasm, I __48__ it, and I saw how it had improved our lives. I accepted her __49__ and began to write for local newspapers. I was doing the same kind of _ 50__ that great day I went to interview Andrew Carnegie and received the task which became my life’s work later. I wasn’t the __51__ beneficiary (受益者). My father became the __52__ man in town. My brother and stepbrothers became a physician, a dentist, a lawyer, and a college president.
What power _53__ has! When that power is released to support the certainty of one’s purpose and is __54__ strengthened by faith, it becomes an irresistible(不可抗拒的) force which poverty and temporary defeat can never __55__ .
You can communicate that power to anyone who needs it. This is probably the greatest work you can do with your enthusiasm.

I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career(职业)．
I wasn"t an excellent student because I didn"t do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn"t have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn"t the type to have a career.
I then found myself a job, looking after two little girls. It wasn"t too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in, so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she"d give me time off the next. But unfortunately, it didn"t often work out. I was getting extremely tired and fed up, because I had too many late nights and early morning with the children.
One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification(资格证书)if I wanted to work with children. I didn"t think I would be accepted because I didn"t take many exams in school. She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a parttime course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.
Now I"ve got a fulltime job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren"t top of the class at school.
小题1:What is the author"s present job?| A．Working parttime in a college. | | B．Helping children with their schoolwork. | | C．Looking after children at a kindergarten. | | D．Taking care of children for a family. |
小题2:When staying with the two girls" family, the author________.| A．was paid for extra work | | B．got much help from her boss | | C．took a day off every other week | | D．often worked long hours |
小题3:Why did the author leave her first job?| A．She decided to attend a parttime course. | | B．She found a fulltime job. | | C．She was fed up with children. | | D．She needed a rest after working extra hours. |
小题4:What has the author learned from her own experiences?| A．Qualifications are necessary for a career. | | B．Hard work makes an excellent student. | | C．One must choose the job she likes. | | D．Less successful students can still have a career. |

When something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, it’s soandso"s fault.”or “I know I"m late, but it"s not my fault; the car broke down.”It is probably not your fault, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation.This is the winner"s key to success.
Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or，you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don"t rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.
This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don"t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So，stop focusing on “whose fault it is.”Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stone for success.
小题1:According to the passage, winners __________.| A．meet with fewer difficulties in their lives | | B．have responsible and able colleagues | | C．blame themselves rather than others | | D．deal with problems rather than blame others |
小题2:The underlined word remedy in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to __________.| A．improve | B．avoid | C．accept | D．consider |
小题3:When your colleague brings about a problem, you should __________.| A．blame him for his lack of responsibility | | B．tell him to find the cause of the problem | | C．find a better way to handle the problem | | D．ask a more able colleague for help |
小题4:Which of the following is the best title for the passage?| A．A Winner"s Opportunity. | B．A Winner"s Problem. | | C．A Winner"s Secret. | D．A Winner"s Achievement. |

When an NBA player is young he thinks he can win the championship by himself. It is only later when he has aged and been through many battles that he learns an important lesson: there is no “I ” in “team”.
There is no better example of the value of teamwork than the Boston Celtics. Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett were all superstars on three different teams. Yet, none of them had any titles to show for it. Then, last season, they decided to sacrifice money and individual statistics to play together. Garnett and Allen joined Pierce on the Celtics and changed the NBA in the process.
It started in simple ways. Garnett and Allen are two of the most intense athletes in the world. They treat every second of every practice like it is the NBA championship. If you want to play alongside them then you will have to do the same. So, the young guys on the Celtics started giving their full effort too.
Pierce had been the star of the Celtics for many years. He used to shoot the ball many times a game. But with the addition of Allen and Garnett he shot less and focused on defense. His selflessness showed the young players that doing what made the team better was the only thing that mattered.
When the Celtics were winning and the game was almost over, Garnett, Pierce and Allen would come out of the game. But they wouldn’t just sit on the bench. Instead, they stood and cheered and screamed for their teammates. They wanted to support their friends and teammates.
Now, the guys who don"t play know they can still affect the game by cheering so they scream and cheer when Garnett, Allen and Pierce are playing. The Celtics have developed a strong relationship. They are more than just teammates. They are brothers.
The result: the Boston Celtics won the championship and are considered the favorites to win the Eastern Conference championship again this year.
There is a saying that goes, "A successful team beats with one heart." If that is the case, the Celtics may have the biggest heart in the NBA.
小题1:What does the passage mainly talk about? | A．The stories of three famous basketball superstars. | | B．A famous basketball team named the Boston Celtics. | | C．The importance of teamwork among teammates. | | D．Matches between the Boston Celtics and other teams. |
小题2:What does this sentence “there is no ‘I’ in ‘team’.” mean in Paragraph 1? | A．"I" will be missing once "I" am on the court. | | B．The cooperation of the teammates is more important than the individual. | | C．"I" work so hard in a team that "I" will forget who "I" am | | D．Surrounded by other players, "I" don’t seem to exist. |
小题3:Which of the following is NOT true about Pierce’s recent performance? | A．He became an even better shooter with others’ help. | | B．He focused much more attention on defense. | | C．He created more chances for teammates. | | D．He stood and cheered for his teammates |
小题4:Which of the following didn’t contribute to the success of the Boston Celtics? | A．The whole team has become devoted to each and every stage of the game. | | B．The cooperation and teamwork among the teammates in the match. | | C．The influence of Garnett, Allen, Pierce and other teammates’ cheering. | | D．The increasing frequency of team players on the bench |
