【题目】完形填空
For me, two of the loveliest words in English are “Life persists”.
I 1 them years ago as a college student, sitting in the library, 2 working on a paper. Out of nowhere,
those words 3 came off the page in a quote: “In the midst of death life persists, in the midst of 4 truth persists, in the
midst of darkness light persists.”
Suddenly I wasn’t unhappy and impatient any more. Then I 5 my granddad. I loved to talk with him. And I was 6to hear what he’d think of it. He had poor hearing, so I had to7 it a few times, but once he8it, he laughed. “All I can say to that is totally 9,”he said on the phone. I told him how glad I was, after a long winter, to finally see spring and 10to find that quote. “Why is that?” he asked. "Well, spring is a sure11 that life persists. And it just makes me 12.”
He laughed again, and then in his 13 voice, he recited for me his 14“spring time” words: “The desert shall rejoice(高兴), and 15 as the rose does…Even with joy and singing.”
Many years later, 16my husband and I drove across a desert with many wildflowers and blooming cactuses(仙人掌), I could 17 hear my granddad laughing: “The desert shall rejoice."
Life persists, and so do we, in the silence of18and the blooming of cactuses; and in the dead of19and the green of spring. Spring 20 us that we’re alive forever.

【题目】任务型阅读
If you are a motivated person, it is easy to put your personal goals ahead of those of the people around you. It is natural and not necessarily a bad thing. However, it is crucial t learn to be a team player. Acting as a part of a team builds character, teacher empathy （共鸣）, and eventually achieves goals.Here’s why:
Group Effort Is More Effective than Individual Effort. You can run a small business pretty independently, but if you ever plan on being employed or running a business that employs others, you’ll have to learn how to work with other people.
Improving Others Equals Improving Yourself. If you’re on a team, your personal success helps make you a good team player. This is because most people are at least a little bit competitive, whether they admit it or not. When you do well, you set a standard that others will want to meet. By pushing yourself, you help push the people on your team.When you see someone you’re working with do something better than you, more often than not, you’ll push yourself to meet that standard.
Your Attitude Matters People respect the ability to work well with others more than anything. Your individual actions have an impact, but if you’re reluctant to do something to help your team, it’ll be evident and your contribution will be less appreciated. Having a genuine interest in your team helps you as well as those you’re working with.
As much as your work is important and necessary to the success of your team, the success of your team is important and necessary to your success.
A. Of course, this works both ways
B. These is a mutual（相互的）effect between personal success and team achievement
C. People with team spirit try hard to make their team the best of all
D. You should be the kind of person who wants to be a team player
E. Those who show respect for others will be respected in turn
F. All of these things, in turn, contribute to your personal success
G. The most impressive achievements are accomplished by groups of people, not individuals
