    Have successful people ever felt sad? Do they have any “secrets” to success? The answers to these questions can be found in US president Barack Obama’s “back to school” speech. Here is an excerpt(摘录) from his speech.
    I know that sometimes, you get the sense that you can be rich and successful without any hard work—that your ticket to success is through rapping (饶舌音乐) or basketball or being a TV star, when chances are, you’re not going to be any of those things.
    But the truth is, being successful is hard. You won’t love every subject you study. Not all the homework will seem completely important to your life right this minute. And you may not succeed at everything the first time you try.
    That’s OK. Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who’ve had the most failures. JK Rowling’s first Harry Potter book was turned down 12 times before it finally came out. Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team, and he lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots (投篮) during his career. But he once said, “I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
    These people succeeded because they understand that you can’t let your failures beat you—you have to let them teach you. You have to let them show you what to do differently next time.
    No one’s born being good at things. You become good at things through hard work.
    Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it. I do that every day. Asking for help isn’t a sign of weakness; it’s a sign of strength. It shows you have the courage to admit(承认) when you don’t know something, and to learn something new.
    And even when you’re struggling, even when you’re discouraged (泄气), and you feel like other people have given up on you—don’t ever give up on yourself. Because when you give up on yourself, you give up on your country.
    小题1:Why does Barack Obama mention (提到) JK Rowling and Michael Jordan in the fourth paragraph?
    A．To compare these two famous persons.
    B．To explain that writing and sports are difficult skills.
    C．To show that the two persons were treated unfairly.
    D．To prove that failure is the mother of success.
    小题2:Which of the following statements is NOT true?
    A．No one can be successful without working hard.
    B．Failure can be good if you treat it in a right way.
    C．Those who believe in themselves shouldn’t ask others for help.
    D．One should try his best to make his dream come true.
    小题3:Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?
    A．One should change his mind when others give honest advice to him.
    B．One should believe in himself no matter what difficulty he is faced with.
    C．One doesn’t have to work hard when he has failed several times.
    D．One doesn’t have to take others’ advice when they get away from him.

    小题1:D
    小题1:C     
    小题1:B     

    小题1:根据. Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who’ve had the most failures.及本段描述,可知选D,来证明失败是成功之母.   
    小题1:根据No one’s born being good at things. 没有人生来什么都会.可知选C,相信自己的人不应该向他人求助.    
    小题1:本句句意为: 而且当你去奋斗的时候,甚至当你没有了勇气了的时候,你感觉别人放弃了你的时候,请不要放弃你自己.故选B,不管面临什么样的困难,人都要相信自己.

    Dreams can happen in any of the four stages of sleep. The most memorable and clearest dreams happen in the last stage of sleep (also known as REM sleep). The sleep cycle repeats about four to five times every night. So you can see how a person has several different dreams in one night. Most people only remember dreams that happen closer to the morning when they are about to wake up. That you can’t remember those dreams does not mean they never happened.
    The stages in the sleep cycle are organized by the changes in different brain activities.

    Stage 1: You are entering into light sleep. In this stage, your eyes move rapidly. We call this NREM. The body gets relaxed and your body temperature lowers. Your heart rate lowers, too. The body is preparing to enter into deep sleep.
    Stage 2: Also characterized by NREM. In this stage, the body temperature and heart rate drop again. You are completely asleep.
    Stage 3: Still in the NREM stage, this is a deeper sleep still.
    Stage 4: In this stage of sleep, your eyes move back or forward. We call it REM sleep. This stage happens at about 90-100 minutes after the beginning of sleep. Your blood pressure rises, heart rate speeds up. The majority of your dreams happen in this stage.
    These stages repeat themselves throughout a night’s sleep.
    小题1: Dreams can happen in ___________.
    A. Stage 1 and 2           B. Stage 3 and 4            C. every stage
    小题2:Which of the following sentences is TRUE according to the passage?
    A. These stages will happen once or twice one night.
    B. Most people only remember the dreams that happen when they are about to wake up.
    C. If one can’t remember his dreams, he never dreams at all.
    小题3:What will happen in Stage 2?
    A. Eyes move rapidly.   B. People enter into light sleep.    C. Heart rate drops.
    小题4:The first REM sleep happens about ___________ after the starting of sleep.
    A. 1 to 2 hours                     B. 2 to 3 hours                     C. 10 minutes
    小题5:The passage is mainly about ___________.
    A. the stages of sleep     B. types of dreams         C. remembering dreams

    Perhaps　the　only　test　score　that　I　remember　is　the　55　when　I　was　in　high　school.
    The　test　was　the　final　for　a　course.　I　remember　waiting　anxiously　as　my　teacher　Mr.　Right　passed　out　our　papers　one　by　one.　It　was　a　rather　difficult　test.　I　heard　my　classmates　groaning,　and　I　could　tel　by　the　groans　that　the　scores　weren’t　looking　good.
    Mr.　Right　put　my　paper　on　my　desk.　There　in　big　red　numbers,　circled　to　draw　attention,　was　my　score,　55!
    I　lowered　my　head,　and　covered　the　score　up　quickly.　A　55　is　not　something　that　you　wanted　your　classmates　to　see.“The　scores　were　not　very　good,　none　of　you　passed,”Mr.　Right　said.　“The　highest　score　in　the　class　was　a　55.”
    A　55.　That’s　me!
    Suddenly　my　sad　look　didn’t　look　so　bad.　I　had　the　highest　score.　I　felt　a　lot　better.
    I　walked　home　alone　that　day　with　the　low　but　high　score.　My　father　knew　that　I　had　a　big　test　that　day　and　asked　me　as　soon　as　I　got　home,　“How　did　you　do　in　your　test？”“I　made　a　55,”I　said.
    A　frown（皱眉）now　stood　on　my　father’s　face.　I　knew　I　had　to　explain　immediately.　“But　Dad,　I　had　the　highest　score　in　the　calss,”I　proudly　stated.　I　thought　that　explanation　would　make　a　difference.“You　failed!”my　father　replied.“But　it’s　the　highest!” I　insisted.“I　don’t　care　what　scores　others　had,　but　you　failed.　What　matters　is　what　you　do!”my　father　firmly　said.
    For　years,　my　father　was　always　that　way.　It　didn’t　matter　what　others　did,　it　only　mattered　what　I　did　and　that　I　did　it　excelently.
    We　often　don’t　understand　the　wisdom（智慧）of　good　parents　until　we　ourselves　stand　in　the　parents’shoes.　My　father’s　words　have　carried　me　throughout　life.
    小题1:　The　word　groaning　is　the　closest　in　meaning　to　_____.
    A．singingB．laughingC．complainingD．quarreling
    小题2:　In　class,　to　hide　my　score　from　my　classmates,　I　_____.
    A．lowered　my　headB．covered　my　score　up
    C．walked　home　aloneD．explained　immediately
    小题3:　A　frown　stood　on　my　father’s　face　because　he　thought　_____.
    A．I　did　a　bad　job　in　the　test
    B．I　gave　a　good　excuse
    C．I　became　the　worst　student
    D．I　stood　in　his　shoes
    小题4:　We　can　infer　from　the　passage　that　_____.
    A．the　father　was　strict　with　his　child.
    B．the　writer　was　always　poor　in　tests.
    C．Mr.　Right　was　worried　about　the　writer
    D．the　writer　was　always　happy　with　his　scores
    小题5:　Which　is　the　best　title　of　the　passage？
    A．The　Final　TestB．That’s　Me!
    C．My　strict　TeacherD．Scores,　Important？
