    One of the keys to being successful is persistence（坚持）．Once you have determined exactly what you want to achieve, you must take active action in order to succeed.
    One of the things you'll notice on your journey towards your goal are roadblocks. That is, you will come across obstacles（障碍） to discourage your progress. Actually, they are a part of life. Everyone would have every success they ever wanted if there were no obstacles. Your job is to be persistent and work through those obstacles. If you find little or no obstacles along the way, chances are that you are not really challenging yourself. And when you do reach your goal, you won't experience the feeling of "sweet success". Make your goal a challenging one!
    If you take the time to study any successful person, you will learn that the vast majority of them have had more "failures" than they have had "successes". This is because successful people are persistent; the more they stumble（绊倒）and fall, the more they get right back up and get going again. On the other hand, people that don't get back up and try again, never reach success. For example, Walt Disney was turned down 302 times before he got financing for his dream of creating the "Happiest Place on Earth". Today, due to his persistence, millions of people have shared "the joy of Disney".
    Having known these facts, keep in mind that you must constantly reevaluate（再评估）your circumstances and the approach you are using to reach your goal. There is no sense in being persistent at something that you are doing incorrectly! Sometimes you have to modify（修改）your approach along the way. Every time you do something you learn from it, and
    therefore find a better way to do it the next time.
    Today is the day to begin your journey, using consistency and persistency, towards tomorrow's successes!
    小题1:The author seems to hold the belief that      .
    A．challenges we come across are beneficial
    B．obstacles will surely lead to someone’s success
    C．the more obstacles we have, the more discouraged we feel

    A．Making a practical goal will ensure your success.
    B．Having a beautiful picture will lead to your success.
    C．Never giving up in face of failure may contribute to your success.
    D．Suffering from more failures will make you disappointed.
    小题3:What must you reevaluate constantly?
    A．Attitudes and skills.B．Circumstances and ways.
    C．Roadblocks and challenges.D．Failures and successes.
    小题4:What’s the text mainly about?
    A．Persistence makes for successB．Overcome obstacles
    C．Challenge yourselfD．Failure is the mother of success

    小题1:A
    小题2:C
    小题3:B
    小题4:A

    试题分析:
    小题1:推理题，由第二段最后一句And when you do reach your goal, you won't experience the feeling of "sweet success". Make your goal a challenging one!可以推出答案，故选A。
    小题2:推理题。由第三段第三行the more they stumble（绊倒）and fall, the more they get right back up and get going again.可以推出答案，所以选C。
    小题3:细节题，由倒数第二段第一行keep in mind that you must constantly reevaluate（再评估）your circumstances and the approach you are using to reach your goal.可以知道答案，所以选B

    Life affects friendships. As we grow, marry, fight in wars, move across the country or change jobs, old friendships fall away and new ones form. As long as we live, the things around us change, and as long as things change, friendships are affected.
    When we were children we had best friends. No matter what happened we were still friends. We live our lives, however, and do what life calls for us to do, and as we get older, memories fade, faces blur, and even friends' names from childhood are forgotten.
    Do you have a question about friendship? Do you wonder what to do with a friend who is no longer friendly? Perhaps you will see that you can't control others. If someone wants to be your friend, it is their choice. All you can do is treat them well and do the best for them when you are with them. Then you wish them well when they leave.
    You can talk to old timers and they will tell you that life is full of incredible joy and incredible sorrow, and that what bothers you today will one day becomes a memory and the sting(痛苦) will be gone. Seniors might tell you that you will learn more as you get older. They will tell you that friendships come and friendships go. Sometimes when they go it will hurt, but you will be okay with it. It's the way life works, after all.
    小题1:What can we learn about friendship, according to the text?
    A．Friendship can not be easily affected by one's family.
    B．Friends are always around us and will never go away.
    C．Friends in childhood are the best no matter what happens.
    D．Friends in childhood are sometimes forgotten by us.
    小题2:What should we do with friends who are no longer friendly according to the  text?
    A．Do our best to control them and make them listen to us.
    B．Forget them and make new friends who have a lot in common with us.
    C．Find the reason why our friendship has changed.
    D．Care about them and do the best for them when we are together.
    小题3:The text mainly tell us _________.
    A．how to face the changes in friendship
    B．how to deal with unfriendly people
    C．that childhood friendship is valuable
    D．how to share happiness with friends

    “Time is a problem for children,” states a news report for a new Swiss watch. Children in some countries “learn time slowly” because “they don’t wear watches” and “parents don’t really know how to teach them time.” The children grow up with this handicap and become adults-and then can’t get to work on time. Is there an answer to this problem? Of course-it’s the Flick Flak, made by a famous Swiss watch company.
    The Flick Flak is being marketed as something teaching watch for children aged 4 to 10. The watch itself does not teach children how to tell time, of course; it merely “takes their imagination” by presenting the “hour” hand as a beautiful red girl named Flak and the “minute” hand as a tall blue boy named Flick. Flick points to related “blue” minutes on the dial, while Flak points to “red” hour numbers. The characters and colors combined with parental help, are supposed to teach young children how to tell time.
    The watch comes equipped with a standard battery and a nylon band (尼龙表带). Peter Lipkin, the United States sales manager for the Flick Flak, calls it “childproof: if it gets dirty you can throw the whole watch in the washing machine.” The product is being sold in select department stores in Europe, Asia and the United States for a suggested price of $25. Parents who buy the watch may discover that it is one thing to tell time; it’s quite another for them to be on time.
    小题1:From the news report we know that ______.
    A．parents are patient when teaching children time
    B．parents have little idea of how to teach children time
    C．children are likely to learn time quickly
    D．children enjoy wearing the Flick Flak watch
    小题2:The author doesn’t seem to believe ______.
    A．children will be on time if they have not learnt how to tell time
    B．a Flick Flak can help parents teach their children how to tell time
    C．the Flick Flak can take children’s imagination
    D．children usually have trouble telling time if they don’t wear watches
    小题3:The underlined word handicap (Para. 1) means ______.
    A．displeasureB．discouragementC．disappointmentD．disadvantage
    小题4:The United State sales manager calls the new watch “childproof” because ______.
    A．it is designed to teach children to be on time
    B．it proves to be effective in teaching children time
    C．it is made so as not to be easily damaged by children
    D．it is the children’s favorite watch

    Monday: Here I am, in the middle of nowhere. This camping trip idea is not getting off to a very good start. It’s raining and the tent leaks (漏). The hiking seemed to take forever, and I still can’t understand how it could all have been up hill! How did I ever let my brother persuade me into doing this? When we get home—if we ever get home—he’s going to have to do something great to get back on my good side. Maybe he should sponsor (赞助) a shopping spree（狂购）at the mall!
    Tuesday: Things are looking up. The sun came out today, so we were able to leave the tents and dry out. We’re camped at the edge of a small lake that I couldn’t see before because of the rain and fog. The mountains are all around us, and the forest is absolutely beautiful. We spent most of the day dragging out everything out of our backpacks or tents and putting it where the sun could dry it out. Later in the afternoon we tried to catch the fish for dinner, but the fish were smarter than we were. At night we built a fire and sang songs happily.
    Wednesday: We hiked to the far side of the lake and climbed to the top of a small peak. From there we could see how high the other mountains were and how far the forest spread around us. On the way up we passed through a snowfield!
    Thursday: I caught my first fish! We followed the stream that fed the lake. After about two miles, we came to a section (区域) that Carol said looked “fishy”. She had a pack rod (竿) , which can be carried in a backpack. I asked to cast (投掷) it, and I caught a fish on my first try. Carol caught a few more. But they were just too pretty to eat for lunch, so we put them back in the stream.
    Friday: I can’t believe we are going home already. It will be nice to get a hot shower, sleep in a real bed, and eat junk food, but the trip has been wonderful. We’re already talking about another camping adventure next year where we canoe (乘独木舟) down a river. It’s hard to believe, but I think this city girl has a little country blood in her veins.
    小题1:The writer went on this camping trip because ____________．
    A．she enjoyed camping. B．she wanted to go fishing.
    C．she was influenced by her brother. D．she was tired of staying home.
    小题2: The whole morning of Tuesday, the writer ____________．
    A．hiked along the lake. B．dried out her belongings.
    C．climbed the mountain. D．caught the fish for dinner.
    小题3:It can be inferred that Carol had a pack rod with her because ____________．
    A．she could not afford to buy a regular fishing pole.
    B．she needed it to get their food.
    C．she thought the writer of the journal might need it.
    D．she expected to go fishing while they were hiking.
    小题4: It is likely that the writer will ____________．
    A．go on another camping trip.
    B．invite Carol to go fishing together.
    C．make her brother buy her something.
    D．persuade her brother to go camping.

    Welcome to your future life!
    You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is firm and young-looking. In 2035, medical technology is better than ever. Many people of your age could live to be 150, so at 40, you’re not old at all. And your parents just had an anti-aging (抗衰老的) treatment. Now, all three of you look the same age!
    You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes from blue to red. In 2035, “smart clothes” contain particles(粒子) much smaller than the cells in your body. The particles can be programmed to change clothes’ color or pattern.
    You walk into the kitchen. You pick up the milk, but a voice says, “You shouldn’t drink that!” Your fridge has read the chip (芯片) that contains information about the milk, and it knows the milk is old. In 2035, every article of food in the grocery store has such a chip.
    It’s time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way, you can call a friend using your jacket sleeve. Such “smart technology” is all around you.
    So will all these things come true? “For new technology to succeed,” says scientist Andrew Zolli, “it has to be so much better that it replaces what we have already.” The Internet is one example. What will be the next?
    小题1:We can learn from the text that in the future ___________.
    A．people will never get old
    B．everyone will look the same
    C．red will be the most popular color
    D．clothes will be able to change their pattern
    小题2:What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
    A．Milk will be harmful to health.
    B．More drinks will be available for sale.
    C．Food in the grocery store will carry electronic information.
    D．Milk in the grocery store will stay fresh much longer.
    小题3:What is the text mainly about?
    A．Food and clothing in 2035.
    B．Future technology in everyday life.
    C．Medical treatments of the future.
    D．The reason for the success of new technology.

    Saturday, March 24th
    We have arrived in the hot, wet city of Bangkok. This is our first trip to Thailand（泰国）. All the different smells make us want to try the food. We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight. The hotel we are staying in is cheap, and very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai in the North.
    Tuesday, March 27th
    Bangkok is wonderful and surprising. The places are interesting. We visited the famous market which was on water, and saw a lot of fruits and vegetables. Everything is so colorful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take the train north, stay in Chiang Mai for two days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai.
    Friday, March 30th
    Our trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet life—no computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say“hello”. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. I feel good here and hope to be able to come back next year.

    For some minutes, all was quiet in the street. Then from across the street someone came walking.
    It looked like a man of middle height, dressed in a big raincoat, a soft hat and rubber-soled boots or shoes, and making little sound while walking. No one was in sight. It was a street with two rows of about fifty small houses and there were three lamps on either side. The lamp nearest to the child’s house could be seen clearly, but the others were almost hidden by the smoky air. A car passed the end of the street and its lights showed faintly，but clearly enough to show the smooth skin of a woman’s face. The car disappeared as the woman, wrapped up in her coat, reached the doorway of the child’s house. She put a key in the lock quickly, pushed the door open and stepped inside, then closed the door without looking round. She began to breathe hard.
    She leaned against the door for a moment, then straightened up as if with an effort, and walked towards the door of the front room, the passage leading to the kitchen, and the narrow staircase. She hesitated outside the door, then went up the stairs quickly but with hardly a sound. There was enough light from the narrow hall to show the four doors leading off a small landing(楼梯平台). She pushed each door open in turn and shone a torch inside, and the light fell upon beds, walls, furniture, a bathroom hand-basin, a mirror which flashed brightness back; but this was not what the woman was looking for. She turned away and went downstairs, and hesitated again at the foot of the stairs, then turned towards the kitchen. Clearly there was nothing there, or in the small washroom that she wanted. Two rooms remained; the front room and a smaller one next to it. She opened the front room door. After a moment, she saw the child’s bed and the child.
    小题1:The lights of the car passing the end of the street showed that ______.
    A．a woman was driving the car
    B．someone was standing by a street lamp.
    C．a man and a woman were walking up the street.
    D．a woman was walking by herself up the street.
    小题2:After the woman closed the front door, she ___________.
    A．looked round quicklyB．started breathing again
    C．rested before movingD．walked straight towards the front door
    小题3: When she was upstairs, the woman _______.
    A．saw that there was a wash-basin in each room
    B．noticed a mirror which she was looking for
    C．found a torch in one of the rooms
    D．opened four different doors
    小题4: Once she was in the house, the woman behaved as if what she was looking for ____
    A．might be in the kitchen
    B．was more likely to be upstairs
    C．would be easily seen by the light from the hall
    D．would look frightening to a child
