Once, a circle lost a piece of its own. The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around, looking for its   41  piece. But because it was not complete, it could only roll (滚) very slowly. It enjoyed the flowers and the sunshine   42  the way. It talked with worms. It found lots of different pieces, but   43  of them fit. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on   44  for the lost piece. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit   45 . The circle put the piece into   46  . It could be whole with nothing lost. It was so happy and began to roll. As it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to see flowers or talk to worms. It realized how different the world was when it rolled so quickly. It felt so sad   47  it stopped, left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled very slowly.
Sometimes we are perfect when we lose something. A man who   48  everything is poor in some ways. He will never have hopes, dreams or something   49 . He will never know someone loves him or someone is giving him something he has always wanted or never had.
We couldn’t be perfect. But we must be brave enough to love, strong enough to forgive, kind enough to share   50  with others and clever enough to know there is enough love  around us and then we can always have a wonderful time in our life.

A 10-year-old boy decided to study judo (柔道), although he had lost his left arm in a car accident.
  The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo teacher, Mr. Tanaka. The boy was doing well, but his teacher had taught him only one move in three months of training.
  “Mr. Tanaka,” the boy finally asked, “shouldn’t I be learning more moves?”
  “This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you’ll ever need to know,” his teacher replied.
  Several months later, Mr. Tanaka took the boy to his first tournament (锦标赛). The boy won his first three matches, using his one move to win. The boy was now in the finals, and was amazed by his own success.
  This time, his opponent (对手) was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. The referee (裁判) wanted to stop the match.
  “No,” the teacher insisted, “let him continue.” Soon, his opponent lowered his guard. At that moment the boy used his move to pin (钉住) him. The boy won the match and became the champion.
  On the way home, the boy and his teacher reviewed every match. Then the boy asked what was really in his mind.
  “Mr. Tanaka, how did I win the tournament with only one move?”
  “You won for two reasons,” his teacher answered. “First, you’ve almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. And second, the only defense (防守) for that move is for your opponent to catch your left arm.”
  The boy’s biggest weakness had become his biggest strength (优点).
小题1:The boy decided to study judo though ____________.
A.he was only ten years old

C.he had lost his left arm in a car accident

Long long ago a man went to India and he had never been there before. When he got there, he saw a lot of fruit, but much of it was expensive because they couldn’t grow much because there was little water. Finally he saw a big basket of some very red and long fruit. And it was the cheapest in the shop.
So he went up and asked, “How much each kilo?”and the shop keeper said, “Two rupees(卢比). ”Two rupees in India was nothing. So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it. But after he ate some of it:oh, my god!His eyes watered, his mouth watered and burnt, and his face became red. He jumped up and down, saying, “Ah!Ah!Ah!”
But he still continued to eat the fruit!Some people who were looking at him shook their heads and said, “You’re crazy, man. Those are chilies(辣椒)!You can’t eat so many!People use them as a condiment, but only a little bit to put into food for taste. You can’t just eat them like that. ”But the silly man said, “No, I can’t stop!I paid money for them, and now I’ll eat them up. It’s my money!”
And you think that man was silly, right?We sometimes do a lot of things like that. We spend money, time or effort doing something. And even though it’s been a long time, hard experience tells us it won’t work, and we know there’s no more hope, we still continue just because we’ve put money, time, effort and love in to it. Just like the man who ate the chilies and felt so bad but couldn’t stop because he didn’t want to waste the money he’d paid.
So even if you’ve lost something, let it go and move on. That’s better than continuing to lose.
小题1:The man chose to buy the red and long fruit only because  .
A.he hadn’t eaten it beforeB.he was hungry
C.it was cheapD.he hadn’t seen it before
小题2:The underlined  word“condiment”in Paragraph3 probably means_______.
A.零食B.水果C.调料D.蔬菜
小题3:Which of the following sentence is TRUE?
A.The man went to India to buy fruit.
B.The man didn’t want to waste money.
C.The man bought the fruit because it was expensive.
D.India can grow a lot of fruit.
小题4:From the passage, we can learn that_________.
A.we shouldn’t waste money
B.we shouldn’t eat chilies
C.we shouldn’t buy something cheap
D.letting something go is better than keeping on losing
