12.Have you ever been sad because you failed in something?If so,please remember,for often,achieving what you expect is not the most important thing.Enjoy the process(过程).Here is a story to tell you why.
One day a little boy decided to dig a hole behind his house after watching a science program.As he was working,a couple of boys stopped by to watch."What are you doing?"asked one of the visitors."I want to dig a deep hole all the way through the earth!"the boy answered excitedly.The older boys began to laugh,telling him that it was impossible to do it.Then they left.
The little boy kept on digging and digging.Suddenly,a few small colorful stones caught his eyes.He collected them and put them into a glass box patiently.Humming a song,he went on digging.The box was full soon.Then he talked to himself quietly and proudly,"Maybe I can't finish digging all the way through the earth,but look at what I have found in the process of digging!"
The boy's goal was too difficult,but it did cause him to go on,in other words,to cause us to keep working.
Not every goal will be achieved.Not every job will end up with a success.Not every dream will come true.But when you can't achieve your goal,maybe you can say,"Yes,but look what I've found along the way!There are so many wonderful things that have come into my life because I tried to do something!"It is in the digging that life is lived.It is the unexpected joy on the journey that really has a meaning.

64.Is achieving what you expect the most important thing in the passage?No,it isn't./No
65.When did the little boy decide to dig a hole behind his house?After watching a science program./After he watched a science program
66.Why did the older boys begin to laugh at the little boy?Because it was impossible to dig a (deep) hole all the way through the earth.
67.What did the boy find in the process of digging?He found (small) colorful stones./Colorful stones
68.What does the writer want to tell us?Enjoy the process,although sometimes our goals won't be achieved.

分析 这篇短文主要描述了一个想挖穿地球的小男孩,最终没有挖穿地球.却在挖掘的过程中,挖掘到了多彩的宝石.从而告诉我们即使努力也不一定就能实现目标,但是我们也许会在过程中有很大的收获,我们要珍惜努力的过程.这个故事使我们明白了一个观点:成功与否,并不重要,关键是享受过程.

解答 64.No,it isn't./No.细节理解题.根据achieving what you expect is not the most important thing.可知实现你所期望的并不是最重要的,故答案为:No,it isn't./No.
65.After watching a science program./After he watched a science program.细节理解题.根据One day a little boy decided to dig a hole behind his house after watching a science program.可知一天,一个小男孩在看了一个科学节目后决定在他家后面挖个洞,故答案为:After watching a science program./After he watched a science program.
66.Because it was impossible to dig a (deep) hole all the way through the earth.细节理解题.根据The older boys began to laugh,telling him that it was impossible to do it.可知年纪大些的男孩开始大笑,告诉他这是不可能的,故答案为:Because it was impossible to dig a (deep) hole all the way through the earth.
67.He found (small) colorful stones./Colorful ston es.细节理解题.根据Suddenly,a few small colorful stones caught his eyes.可知突然,几块多彩的宝石映入他的眼帘,故答案为:He found (small) colorful stones./Colorful stones.
68.Enjoy the process,although sometimes our goals won't be achieved.细节理解题.根据文章内容可知作者想告诉我们虽然目标不一定能实现,但要享受努力地过程,故答案为:Enjoy the process,although sometimes our goals won't be achieved.

2.A boy called Mario had many friends,and he was proud of it.Whoever he met,he would like to show off(炫耀) how popular he was at school.
One day,his grandpa said to him,"Mario,I know that you don't have as many friends as you think.Many of them are not true to you."
Mario thought maybe his grandpa was right.However,he wasn't sure how he could test whether his schoolmates were real friends or not,so he asked his grandpa.The old man answered,"I have just exactly what you need.It's in my room.Wait a minute."The old man left,soon returning as if(好像) carrying something in his hand,but Mario could see nothing there.
"Take it.It's a very special chair.Because it's invisible,it will be hard for you to sit on it.However,if you manage to sit on it,you can use the chair's magic power(力量) to tell who your real friends are."

"Nobody move.You're about to see something amazing,"said Mario.Then he tried sitting on the chair.Having difficulty seeing it,he missed and fell to the ground.Everyone had a pretty good laugh."Wait,wait,"said Mario,making another try.But again he missed the seat.
Mario didn't give up.He kept trying to sit on the magic chair.Finally,he did it.This time he felt himself in mid-air.
Then he experienced the magic that his grandpa had been talking about.Looking around,Mario saw George,Lucas and Diana holding him up,so he wouldn't fall.But some schoolmates whom he had regarded as friends had done nothing but made fun of him.Mario was quite thankful to his grandpa,who helped him test who his true friends were.

88.Mario was proud of having many friends,wasn't he?Yes,he was.
89.What did Grandpa think of Mario's friends?Grandpa thoughtMario hadn't as many friends as he thought.
90.What did Mario ask Grandpa to tell him?To tell him the way totest whether his classmates were real friends or not.
91.What did Mario take to school the next day?Hetook the strange invisible chair to school.
