    My name is Nick Vujicic, an Australian who was born without any limbs（四肢）. In recent years one of my most 36 videos on YouTube shows my skateboarding, surfing, playing music, and best of all, 37 hugs from all fields of great people.
    All in all, those are pretty ordinary 38 that just about anyone can do, right? So 39 do you think that video has been viewed millions of times? My theory is that people are 40 to watch it because in spite of my physical limitations, I’m living 41 I had no limits.
    People often think someone 42 a severe disability to be inactive, upset, maybe even crazy. But I’d like to 43 them by showing that I lead a very adventurous and fruitful life
    Among the hundreds of 44 on that video, here’s one typical remark:” seeing a guy like this being happy makes me wonder why I feel 45 for myself sometimes －or feel not funny enough, or whatever. How can I 46 think thoughts like that when this guy is living without limbs and still being happy!?”
    I found happiness when I realized that imperfect 47 I may be, I am the perfect Nick Vujicic. I’m designed 48 God’s plan. That’s not to say that there isn’t 49 for improvement. I’m always trying to be better so I can better 50 the world!
    I do believe my life has no 51 . I want you all to feel the same way about your life, no matter what your challenges may be. As we 52 our journey together, please take a moment to 53 about any limitations you’ve placed on your life. Now think about what 54 would be like to be 55 of those limitations. What would your life be if anything were possible?

    For years, my family has vacationed in the same Florida town. In fact, we just returned home after spending a week of spring break there with our three sons.
    Many nights, we take the same scenic drive to dinner at a favorite restaurant. As we travel along Gulf Shore Boulevard, we admire a combination of small beach apartments, swanky high-rises and spectacular homes.
    A few years ago, we noticed that whenever we drive this particular route, there are always two men sitting in front of the same third-floor window of a low-rise apartment building that overlooks the road. All that is visible from the road are their two silhouettes. Even during off-peak months, they’ve always been there. Over the years, we’ve had great fun speculating about who they are, whether they’re having a drink, and if so, what they fancy, where they’re from, and what they might be discussing. Our guesses have become a modern form of car bingo. Widowers? Retirees? Partners? We’ve run through the gamut of possibilities.
    Eventually, I started beeping the horn as we passed. We’d wave. Our new friends would do likewise. There was something comforting in seeing them. In a world of constant change, it has been nice to look up and see that they are there, just as we remember from our last visit. And then last spring, we drove by and they were missing. The apartment was dark. No one was visible in the window. Strangely, we drove by and they were missing The apartment was dark. No one was visible in the window. Strangely, we grew worried about two people we’d never even met. Where did they go? A new round of the guessing game began.
    On our last trip at Christmastime, we were relieved to see them once again. We were driving past about 6 p.m., and there they were at cocktail hour. I told my wife that I suspected they were gin drinkers and said we should buy them a bottle. She said that if I bought it, she’d deliver it. I said, “Tomorrow.”
    小题1:Driving along the scenic route, the author’s family were to         .
    A．meet their friends thereB．visit the Florida town
    C．appreciate a place of interestD．have supper together
    小题2:Why did the author blow the horn?

    B．It was his habit while driving along the special route.
    C．It was an agreement between him and the two men.
    D．It was for the sake of safety while driving.
    小题3:Which of the following can best describe the family?
    A．generous and sensitiveB．curious and kind
    C．helpful and braveD．friendly and hurnorous
    小题4:Which of the following will best continue this passage?
    A．The two men’s favorite drinks.
    B．The two men’s beach apartments
    C．The reason of the two men’s absence

    John, a famous musician, took his priceless antique violin and played it in the crowded subway station. The music from the violin was delicately streaming throughout the whole station. However, during the one-hour play, only six or seven people were truly appreciating the charming music. A three-year-old kid was so fascinated by the music that he forgot everything around. John only got 52 dollars for his work that day.
    However, in normal days, when John is about to hold a concert, one ticket can be sold at more than 100 dollars and it is extremely hard to buy a ticket even at such a high price. Therefore, later, many passers-by in the station that day felt deeply regretful for not recognizing the famous musician and missing such a valuable but cheap music feast.
    I have a very busy friend who had totally changed after knowing that his wife came down with incurable illness. He cooked by himself for the family and took a walk with his wife every day. Nonetheless, his wife still did not manage to conquer the illness and passed away after three months. After that, he often sighed miserably that due to his past busy life, he had missed a lot of beautiful time with his wife. But now, it is impossible to make up for it.
    It is no use crying over spilt milk. We have missed a lot of precious things in our life without knowing to cherish them.
    Actually, I also missed something precious before. The reason why we would have missed those precious things is less than simple: we had thought that we could still own them tomorrow.
    Nevertheless, tomorrow is actually by no means reliable. There was a famous Buddhist monk saying that in many people’s lives, they have only done two things: waiting and regretting. The result is that they were always too late to cherish what they had before they lost it. We would often claim to do something when we grow up, or when we have money or when we become old, etc. However, when we reach the condition we have expected, we could no longer realize our wish, because we have lost it by then.
    小题1:The reason why people often regret may be that _______.
    A．they are too busy to notice the beautiful things
    B．they are too careless to cherish precious things
    C．they are lazy to observe the surroundings
    D．they think that it’s none of their business
    小题2:The idea the author would like to get across to us seems that _______.
    A．actions speak louder than words
    B．a bad beginning makes a bad ending
    C．the lost will never come back
    D．each day brings its own bread
    小题3:What method does the author employ to support his opinion？
    A．By listing data.B．By comparing the details .
    C．By explaining the procedures .D．By taking examples.
    小题4:How do we understand the underlined parts “waiting and regretting”?
    A．Many people will not cherish what they have until they lost them.
    B．Many people cannot do well until they get older.
    C．Many people know what they are doing.
    D．Many people regret for what they don’t possess.

    In this modern world, we rush around all day with no time for stillness.

This comes at a   49 : we lose that time for consideration, for observing and listening. We lose peace. And   50  yet: sometimes no action is better than too much action at all. You can run around crazily, but get nothing done. Take a moment to think about how you spend your days? Are you always   51  through your schedule?
    Is this how you want to spend your life? If not, take a moment to be still. Don't think about what you have to do, or what you've done already.   52  be in the moment.

    The student stood there   36  affected, and his eyes filled with tears. “Now,” said the professor, “are you not much better   37  than if you had played your   38  trick?” The youth replied, “You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget.

I   38  the countryside for some place I could rent for the   39  possible amount. I came upon a shabby house four miles up a winding mountain road   40  the Potomac River in West Virginia. It was   41 , full of broken glass and rubbish. I found the owner, rented it, and   42  a corner to camp in.
    The locals knew nothing about me,   43  slowly, they started teaching me the   44  of being a neighbor. They dropped off blankets, candles, and tools, and began   45  around to chat. They started to teach me a belief in a   46  American Dream—not the one of individual achievement but of   47 .
    What I had believed in, all those things I thought were   48  for a civilized life, were nonexistent in this place.   49  on the mountain, my most valuable possessions were my   50  with my neighbors.
    Four years later, I moved back into   51 . I saw many people were having a really hard time,   52  their jobs and homes. I managed to rent a big enough house to   53  a handful of people. There are four of us now in the house, but over time I’ve had nine people come in and move on to other places. We’d all be in   54  if we hadn’t banded together.
    The American Dream I believe in now is a shared one. It’s not so much about what I can get for myself; it’s about   55  we can all get by together.

    “The first and best of victories for a man is to conquer himself; to be conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful,” says Plato. Self-control is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to his impulses (冲动) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral freedom.
    A single angry word has lost many friends. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease. “Whoever the gods would destroy, they first make them mad.” “Keep cool,” says Webster, “anger is not argument.” “Be calm in arguing,” says George Herbert, “for fierceness makes error a fault.”
    To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger,” says Pythagoras, “begins with foolishness and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him.
    Self-control is man’s last and greatest victory.
    If a man lacks self-control he seems to lack everything. Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no self-confidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling. If he lacks self-control, the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking too.
