Mike was a good and well-trained boy. His parents loved him very much. He did everything well,but Mike had one bad habit. He ate a lot of sweets and chocolates. Those were his favou-rites. He just couldn’t refuse. His mother always told him，“Mike，don't eat so many sweets,

You will get toothaches.

His mother used to keep all the sweets in a glass jar (罐子) .It had a narrow mouth and a tight lid on it. W^^ST

One day when his mother went to the market,Mike saw that his father was asleep. So he walked carefully and slowly to the kitchen and got the sweet jar. With great effort,he opened the tight lid and put his hand in the narrow mouth. Mike picked a fist (拳头) full of sweets. But when he tried to pull his hand out,it got stuck (卡) in the jar.

Mike's father was awake and watching. He said to Mike, “You have picked up too many sweets in your fist. It's more than your little hand can keep. Your fist cannot come out of the jar. Let go of the sweets and pick only one sweet in your two fingers and you can pull your hand out easily. Always take as much as you can control.

Last week,my granddaughter started kindergarten (幼儿园) ，and certainly I wished her success. I was saying something that was not true. What I actually wish for her is failure. I believe in the importance of failure.

Success is boring. Success is proving that you can do something that you already know you can do,or do something correctly the first time,which can often be a problem for the future. First-time success is usually a fluke (饶幸) .First-time failure,in fact,is the natural order of things.

Failure means how we learn. I have been told of an African phrase (短语) describing a good cook as “she who has broken many bowls^. If youVe spent enough time in the kitchen and have broken a lot of bowls,probably you know a lot about cooking. I once had a dinner with a group of cooks,and they spent time comparing knife wounds and burn scars. They knew how much their failures gave them.

My younger daughter is a dancer. She spent three years getting ready for an act. She did it successfully for years. There was no reason for her to change the act — but she did anyway. She said she was no longer learning anything new and she was bored; and if she was bored,she couldn’t play well. So she changed the act. She risked failure in order to feed her heart.

My granddaughter is a perfectionist. But I will also,I hope,remind her of what she learned,and how she can do whatever it is better next time. I probably won’t tell her that failure is a good thing,because that's not a lesson she can learn when she is five. I hope I can tell her,though,that it^?s not the end of the world. Indeed,with luck,it is the beginning.

6. What did the writer really wish for her granddaughter in the kindergarten?

   A. Success. B. Failure. C. Kindness. D. Care.

7. The third paragraph mainly tells us .

   A. what “a good cook” means   B. a cook should often cook

   C. a cook must break many bowls   D. failure means how we learn

8. Why did the younger daughter change the act?

   A. Because she didn't do well in it.

   B. Because she was asked to change it.

   C. Because she wanted to feed her heart.

   D. Because she wanted to try a failure.

9. What does the writer hope to tell the granddaughter?

   A. Failure is a good thing. 

   B. She can't fail any more.

   C. Failure is not the end of the world.

   D. Success is the end of the world.

Few people like changing their habits,good or bad. Whether it is smoking,drinking or over-eating,they 1 “enjoying” them to the end.

On every packet of cigarettes (香烟) ，people are warned against the 2 of smoking: “Warning: Cigarette Smoking Is Dangerous to Your Health”. 3,millions of them start smoking or go on smoking. Why?

Facts show that families and surroundings (环境) play a very important part in 4 smokers. All those smokers come from smoking families or have smoking 5 or relatives. Films and TV plays also play a part. People 6 their “heroes” on TV drinking alcohol (酒) or smoking cigarettes. “Heroes” seem to fear 7 ， neither killing themselves nor killing others with alcohol and cigarettes.
