阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
A It is common and usual to see people freak out when they face challenges in their life. We all pass in different life problems and challenges. No one is free of life problems. Only a dead man faces no problem. As long as you are alive, challenges are everywhere.
How do you face problems and challenges in your life? Problems and challenges are the building blocks of your personality. They make you who you are. Besides, whether what happened in your life builds or destructs you depends on how you look at it. If you take your problems as troubles, they will be troubles and may cause destruction. If you take them as constructive tools, you are going to be built up on them.
Problems are everywhere. No one can avoid them. And they are good too. They open up a different look and opportunity if you are willing to see. When you face troubles, do not frustrate or freak out. Just cool yourself to think in a different direction. Think in a positive way. Every problem has its own good as well as bad sides. Focus on the good one. Look at the bright side.
Besides, there is always a good person, perhaps your mom or dad, or one of your friends, right beside you who can turn everything in to your best if you are willing to turn to them. No matter what happens, they will be there to help you. Trust them and they will never let you down. All you need to know is that you are loved wherever you are.
46. What’s the meaning of the underlined phrase ―freak out‖ in Paragraph 1 ? A. Feel shy. B. Stay calm. C. Keep up. D. Feel upset. 47. In Paragraph 2, the writer implies that______ A. problems cause troubles B. attitude is everything

C For most people, graduation is an exciting day – the culmination (顶点 of years of hard work. My graduation day... was not. I remember that weekend two years ago, Family and friends had traveled far to watch our class walk across the stage. But like everyone else in my graduating class, I had watched the economy go from bad to worse during my senior year. We graduates had degrees, but very limited prospects (前景. I hadn’t secured a job, and I knew that the next day, when my lease (租约 ended, I would no longer have a place to call home.
The weeks ahead weren’t easy. I gathered up everything I couldn’t carry and put it into storage. Then, because I had no opportunities in my small university town, I packed up my car and drove to California to find work. But what I thought would take 第 5 页 共 12 页

a week dragged into two, then four, and 100 job applications later, I found myself still jobless. The due date to begin paying back my student loans was creeping even closer. Have you ever felt utter dread? That feeling became a constant in my life. The most frustrating part was no matter how much I tried, I just couldn’t seem to make any progress.
So what did I do to maintain my sanity? I wrote. Something about putting my words on a page made everything clearer. Something about writing gave me hope.
I channeled my frustration into a children’s book. Beyond the river was the story of an unlikely hero, a little fish who refused to give up.
And then one day, with no writing degree or contacts in the writing world – just hard work and perseverance – I was offered a publishing contract for my first book. After that, things were in place, I was offered a second book deal. Then, a few months later, I got an interview with the Walt Disney Company and was hired shortly after.
The moral of this story is… don’t give up, even if things look bleak now. Two years ago I was drinking cold soup right out the can. Things change. All we need is the courage to push beyond the river.
54. When it was time to graduate, the author felt _____. A. Bored B. Relieved C. depressed D. hopeful 55. After the author’s graduation, _____.
A. he went on a short trip with his family to California B. things turned even worse than he had expected C. he focused on writing instead of applying for jobs
D. he found his salary was hardly enough to pay back his student loans
56. When did the author’s career life begin to run smoothly according to the article? A. After he got his first publishing contract.
B. After he began to write his book Beyond the river. C. After he finished his book Beyond the river. D. After he got hired by the Walt Disney Company. 57. What is the main message the story intends to convey? A. Opportunity lies everywhere.
B. Perseverance is essential to success.
C. It’s important to adapt yourself to society.
D. We should devote ourselves to whatever we do.

D
For a long time being happy was considered something that just happened, and there was nothing special to do about it. Now we know that getting along with ourselves and with other people is something that we can work at. It is possible to act in such a way that other people will like us better. One way is being unselfish, not wanting everything our own way or demanding the best share of everything, including the attention of our friends. Another way is to look for good points, not bad ones in other people. It is surprising how successful this treasure hunt can be. You don’t have to be spineless (懦弱 in order to be popular. In fact, you will be liked and respected if you are not afraid to stand up for your rights. But do it 第 6 页 共 12 页

politely and pleasantly. Being friendly and polite to your own group, to older people, to strangers and especially to those who do not look important or do not interest you is one way to develop a good character. You cannot expect to be perfect, and so you must learn not to be too unhappy when you make a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes, and no one is to be blamed unless he refuses to learn from them. Many young people become discouraged when they recognize in themselves qualities that they do not like----selfishness, laziness and other unpleasant qualities. Just remember that we all have some of these faults and have to fight against them. At the same time, it is important to remember that, while you are probably no worse than others, chances are that you are not much better, either. The surest way to be happy is to think yourself above other people. When something is wrong, it is good sense to try to make it right. Perhaps you don’t like a teacher or a classmate .Try to see why, and look at yourself, too, to be sure that you are not doing something to make that person dislike you. In time, things may turn out all right if you just keep trying to be pleasant and polite. If things do not turn out all right, then you will simply have to get along the best you can with the situation, without thinking too much about it. Worrying never helps in a situation you can’t change. 58.One of the two ways the author suggested for us to get along well with others is ____. A. to draw the attention of our friends B.
to demand the best share of everything C.
to look for treasure in order to be successful D. to pay more attention to other people’s strong points
59.The passage implies that in order to be a happy person, one should consider oneself ____. A. no better than others B.
not the same as others C. as having something better than others D.
as having better chances than others 60.The purpose for the writer to write the passage is to _____. A.
train you to be perfect B.
show you the way to be happy C. tell you how to act when you dislike a person D. teach you how to be popular among your friends 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从下框的A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余选项。 A. Be in control of yourself. B. Set up your education goals. C. Develop good study habits. D. Develop a strategy and an action plan. E. Form a study group and complete tasks together. F. Realize the importance of being successful in school. 第 7 页 共 12 页

How to Be Successful in School 61.
One really important shortcut (捷径 to success in life is to be successful in school. Examine the relationship between levels of educational achievement and income earned during one’s working life. Education is the best investment (投资 a person can make. The higher one’s level of education, the more income they will be likely to earn and the better life will probably be. Students should make the effort to get the most education they can, and work hard to be successful in school at every level. 62.
Long term means five years or more in the future. Do you want to graduate from college? Get into medical school？Get a law degree? Get an MBA? Get a master’s or PhD? Try to define concrete but realistic long term goals for yourself. Then focus on them, thinking about them every time you attempt not to do your homework. Make your long–term goals motivations for your behavior every day, because every day does count when it comes to being successful in school. It is also important to have short-term goals that are stepping stones to your long-term goals. 63.
For each of your education goals, develop a strategy and an action plan. A strategy might be to get math tutoring or to study with a group of friends on a regular basis. An action plan will include several individual tasks with timing and any cost that might be required. If you are a student, start now to understand how to generate goals, strategies and action plans that work; this skill can help you to be successful in school and later, in life. 64.
Habits are formed by practice, by doing. Good study habits are formed by studying on a regular basis for the amount of time required to learn something. One of the most essential keys to being successful in school is to develop good study habits. Once good study habits are formed, you will find that learning and success in school become easier. 65.

If you are a teenager or young adult, don’t let your hormones (荷尔蒙 or other people lead you into irresponsible actions. Self-indulgent (自我放纵的 behavior and abusive behavior toward others are self-destructive and unworthy of mature individuals. Work hard to develop strong character by making the virtues of courage, temperance (节制, and justice. 第Ⅱ卷（共55分）
