【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
I was in my first year of college, making friends and enjoying life, but then my whole world turned upside down. I had a heart attack. It felt like someone was stabbing (刺) me in the chest with a knife over and over again.
After three months of rest I went back to college, but then things took a turn for the worse. I was staying at my Nana's house and woke up in the middle of the night with a terrible pain in my chest. I knew I was having a heart attack again.
I couldn't even shout for help. Luckily my grandpa was going to the toilet and heard me falling out of bed. If it wasn't for him, I probably wouldn't be here.
The two holes in my heart were causing the problems and I needed an operation immediately to repair them. Unfortunately, the surgery didn't go well and they only managed to repair one of the holes.
When I woke up from the operation, I had a really dry mouth and couldn't wait to have something to eat and drink. The biggest shock of all came when I was told that I needed a heart transplant and was put on the register. The doctors were stunned at how quickly heart failure came on – it usually takes years, but it took my heart less than six months to get to that stage. My whole world came crashing down, but I stayed strong. It was a choice between crying every day and getting on with my life.
As time went on, life became even harder. I hated feeling weak all the time and needing help with everything. It got to the point where I thought I would never get a new heart. I was diagnosed with depression.
Even though I thought that Christmas 2008 would be my last, I really enjoyed it and even had a good New Year. Everyone was crying for me when the clock struck midnight and they told me to keep fighting.
A week later, I got a call from the doctors saying they'd found a suitable donor (捐赠人). My wish came true and thankfully the operation went well. I spent four hours in surgery where they took out my old heart and put a new one in. When I woke up I burst out crying. I had a second chance at life.
(1)What happened when the author was having his second heart attack?
A.He felt less pain than he had during the previous one.
B.He narrowly escaped death thanks to his grandfather.
C.He realized what it was and shouted for help in time.
D.He decided to have an operation to repair the two holes in his heart.

A.was convinced that the past Christmas had been his last

(4)Which one would be the best title for the text?

B.Rebuilding my world
C.Waiting for a new heart
D.The most special Christmas

【答案】
(1)B
(2)A
(3)C
(4)C

【题目】阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或用括号内单词的正确形式(至多三个单词)。
A Thanksgiving Day story in the newspaper told of a school teacher asked her class of first graders to draw a picture of something they were thankful for. She (think) of how little these children from poor neighbourhood actually had to be thankful for. But she knew that most of them would draw pictures of turkeys or tables full food. The teacher was taken back with the picture Douglas handed in—a small childishly hand!
But whose hand? The class was (puzzle) by the abstract drawing. “I think it must be the hand of God brings us food,” said one child, “a farmer,” said another, “because he feeds turkeys.” Finally, when the others were at work, the teacher (bend) over at Douglas' desk and asked whose hand it was. “It's your hand, Teacher,” he said in a low voice.
She remembered that (frequent) at break she had taken Douglas, a small lonely child, by hand. She often did that with the (child). But it meant so much to Douglas. Perhaps this was everyone's Thanks-giving, not for the material things (give) to us but for the chance, in whatever small way, to give to others.

【题目】根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Questions you should ask yourself when you fail
The more new things we try the more failure we are likely to have.. Experiencing failure can be a learning experience and an opportunity for a fresh start. A good way to begin this process is by asking yourself some tough questions.
1)What can I learn from this?
Take responsibility for what went wrong. OK, so it was not all your fault—but some of it was. Successful people don't make excuses or blame others. So you should look at the experience objectively(客观地).
2)Do I need to acquire or improve some skills?
Did the problem reveal some lack of skill on your part? How could you learn or improve those skills? Perhaps there are books or courses or people you could turn to.
3)Who can I learn from?
Is there someone to whom you can turn for advice? Did a boss, colleague or friend see what happened?. Most people do not ask for help because they believe it to be a sign of weakness rather than strength. It's not. It shows that you are ready to learn and change.
4)What will I do next?
Now draw up an action plan. Will you try something similar or something different? Revisit your goals. Failure doesn't mean you have to give up; maybe you just need to change it in another way.
A. You can now reset your sights on your destination and plan a new course.
B. Make them step stones to future success.
C. They take responsibility for the failure.
D. In fact the only way to avoid failure is to do nothing new.
E. The important thing is how we deal with failure.
F. Make a self-development plan to acquire the skills and experience you need.
G. If they are constructive and supportive then ask them for some feedback (反馈) and guidance.
