It has been proved over and over again that patience is a virtue that not so many persons hold, it is also very true that in most cases haste (匆忙) ruins everything. It"s high time that you learnt to be patient as it is an important quality for those who want to get success. If you are always in a hurry and never think twice before taking a decision, then you risk losing important things and you are the one who suffers. One of the conditions to get a good job and also to keep it is the patience. If you make decisions without consulting (磋商) with someone else then there are two reasons: the first one: you are so well prepared in your field that you are always right and what you decide is the best and the second one: you don"t think carefully and you take everything for granted.

A few years ago I had an "aha!" moment regarding handwriting. I had in my hand a sheet of paper with handwritten instructions on it for some sort of editorial task.It occurred at first that I did not recognize the handwriting,and then I realized whose it must be.I finally became aware of the fact that I had beenworking with this colleague for at least a year,maybe two,and yet I did not recognize her handwriting at that point. It was a very important event in the computerization of life-a sign that the informal.Friendly communication of people working together in an office had changed from notes in pen to instant messages and emails.There was a time when our workdays were filled with little letters,and we recognized one another"s handwriting the way we knew voices or faces. As a child visiting my father"s office,I was pleased to recognize,in little notes on the desks of his staff,the same handwriting I would see at home in the notes he would leave on the fridge-except that those notes were signed "dad" instead of "RFW". All this has been on my mind because of the talk about The Rise and Fall of Handwriting,a book by Florey.Sire shows in her book a deep concern about the fall of handwriting and the failure of schools to teach children to write well,but many others argue that people in a digital age can"t be expected to learn to hold a pen. I don"t buy it. I don"t want to see anyone cut off from the expressive,personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does.For many a biographer,part of really getting to know their subjects is learning to read their handwriting. What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16th-century Italy.That may sound impossibly grand-as if they want kids to learn to draw by copying classical paintings.However,they have worked in many school systems. |
1.Why was the author surprised at not recognizing his colleague"s handwriting? |
A.He had worked with his colleague long enough. B.His colleague"s handwriting was so beautiful. C.His colleague"s handwriting was so terrible. D.He still had a lot of work to do. |
2.People working together in an office used to . |
A.talk more about handwriting B.take more notes on workdays C.know better one another"s handwriting D.communicate better with one another |
3.The author"s father wrote notes in pen . |
A.to both his family and his staff B.to his family in small letters C.to his family on the fridge D.to his staff on the desk |
4.According to the author,handwritten notes . |
A.are harder to teach in schools B.attract more attention C.are used only between friends D.carry more message |
5.We can learn from the passage that the author . |
A.thinks it impossible to teach handwriting B.does not want to lose handwriting C.puts the blame on the computer D.does not agree with Florey |

Life is difficult. It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it, then life is no longer difficult. Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain(抱怨) about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties stand for a special kind of suffering especially forced on them or else on their families, their class, or even their nation. What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause sadness, or loneliness(孤独) or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes a lot of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy. Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure. When we want to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, "Those things that hurt, instruct(指导)." It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems. |
1.Which sentence best express the central point of the passage? |
A. Problems and difficulties represent a special kind of suffering. B. We become stronger by facing and solving problems of life. C. Life is difficult because our problems bring us pain. D. People like to complain about their problems. |
2. The writer probably used just one short sentence in the first paragraph to ___. |
A. save space B. persuade readers C. make readers laugh D. get readers" attention |
3. The main idea of paragraph 3 is that _________. |
A. most people feel life is easy B. the writer feel life is easy C. the writer likes to complain about his problems D. most people complain about how hard their lives are |
4. According to the passage, we give school children difficult problems to solve in order to ______. |
A. encourage them to learn B. teach them to fear the pain of solving the problems C. help them learn to deal with pain D. teach them how to respect problems |
5. The saying from Benjamin Franklin "Those things that hurt, instruct" suggests that ______. |
A. we do not learn from experience B. we do not learn when we are in pain C. pain teaches us important lessons D. pain cannot be avoided |

In one way of thinking, failure is part of life. In another way, failure may be a way towards success. The "spider-story" is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider making a web(网). The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock. He tried six times. On the seventh time he made it and went on to make his web. Bruce is said to have been encouraged by this and to have gone on to defeat the English. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one. Once he was asked why he kept on trying to make a new type of battery when he had failed so often, he replied, "Failure? I have no failure. Now I know 50,000 ways it won"t work." So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were you in top form yourself? What can you change so things will go right next time? Second, is the goal you"re trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about this question, "If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?" This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn"t be doing anyway. The third thing to keep in mind about failure is that it"s a part of life. Learn to "live with yourself" even though you may have failed. |
1. In the first paragraph the writer tells mainly about _____. |
A. the value of failure B. how people fail C. famous failures D. how not to fail |
2. The thing the writer does not tell you to do to deal with failure is _____. |
A. check out your goals to see if they are right for you B. think about failure as part of your life C. think about failure to find out what went wrong D. keep away from things that are beyond you |
3. Even if we have failed we should _____. |
A. learn to forget it B. learn to remember it C. learn to enjoy it D. learn to accept it |

请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。 We should not hesitate too much during the first half of our lives, while we should not regret at what we"ve done during the other half. We should seize every opportunity (机会) to find a way out in our lives, for it goes off quickly. We should say something urgent (紧迫的) slowly, something serious clearly, something small humorously and something unsure carefully. We should never say something that did not happen, something that we cannot do, something that does harm to others. Do not easily say something about others. We should follow our own heart and interest, and fulfill what we should do. Everyone is longing for a happy life, but owning wealth does not necessarily mean owning happiness. To truly reach happiness, we need to know how to get on with others. So we need to understand the core (核心) of happiness and achieve what we desire. We need to know and understand happiness before we finally get it. A smart man must know to do something good even though it may be small, and not to do something evil even though it may be tiny in everyday life. As long as we keep a kind heart and do everything legally, we can live a peaceful life. But if we keep an evil heart and do whatever we want, we are indeed digging a tomb for ourselves. A smart man knows to learn a lesson from his falls for he knows that every fall is a valuable experience leading to happiness in the future. He will not waste his time in criticizing (批评)others. Instead, he tends to spend more time seeking his own happiness. He knows to keep a heart of conscience (道德) and not to spread others" mistakes. He also knows to think before he leaps so that he will not feel regretful afterwards. Moreover, he knows to tolerate others, so he can naturally lead a happy life. Without happiness, one will feel terribly sorry, for he always insists that he has done the right thing all the time and that others often do wrong to him. He attributes (把……归于) every mistake to others or the environment instead of reflecting on himself, which keeps him farther and farther away from happiness. A well-known person once said, "Nobody intends to make mistakes. One makes mistakes because of his ignorance (无知)." Therefore, if someone makes mistake, we need to care about him, forgive him and enlighten (启发) him by setting a good example to him instead of losing temper (怒气) to him. Otherwise, we are also ignorant like him, for we also make a stupid mistake that leads us farther from happiness. In order to lead a happy life, we need to know more about others, about the society, about our culture and history. We should love our country, keep the law and realize our own responsibility (责任), and then we are sure to have a happy life.
