【题目】We considered a list of the best American books-but we’d need a whole issue to do them justice. Here are five that help define the national character. Most from a century or so ago, they still entertain, teach, and inspire us.
Moby-Dick by Herman Melville

The Education of Henry Adams by Henry Adams

Poems by Emily Dickinson
An enthusiastic poet whose works have had considerable influence on modern poetry, Dickinson’s frequent use of dashes, occasional capitalization(大写) of nouns, and unconventional metaphors(隐喻) have contributed to her reputation as one of the most inventive(创新的) poets of the 19th century American literature.

【题目】Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Kick Your Way To Success
No man in the world does not desire success. Actually every path to success starts with a great idea. There’s only one problem: good ideas are everywhere. When successful, what really matters is not having an idea, but having the courage to make it a reality. This usually means losing the sense of security of a normal job and the risk of getting a steady salary.
Even with a great idea and the courage to pursue it, your efforts will be worthless unless you are willing to take massive action. Write down your goals and the action steps you will take to pursue those goals. 【1】 Share it with others, so they will hold you accountable for achieving your plan. Make yourself responsible and master of your destiny.
Without passion, even the greatest vision will become weaker. Without passion, your energy and enthusiasm will flag when you meet with inevitable obstacles. 【2】
It’s the force allowing you to devote every moment of your workday to bring you closer to the success you are eager to.
Once you’ve made a decision, doubt is a worm that eats away at your ability to succeed. Life and work can be hard and even cruel. Remember, the race is not for the swift but rather those who persevere. Rather than allowing doubt to affect your progress, you should be confident in your vision and plan. 【3】
The old sayings of “no one is an island” and “there is a powerful man” may sound a bit old, but they don’t make them unreal. 【4】 Meeting regularly can be positive and provide new perspectives on your approach. The Internet makes it very easy to find a coach, an instructor, or a planning group that can provide the emotional support, experience, and wisdom to help turn your vision into reality.
A. Make your passion a physical trait of your personality.
B. Post your vision and plan in your bedroom, bathroom, office.
C. However, taking the easy way of dishonesty has a tendency to sneak back up on you.
D. In the process, adapt to your needs, but know that success will ultimately be yours.
E. Even with self-discipline, in the long run, you’ll need contact with spiritual leaders.
F. In the end, it causes far more problems than taking the risk of telling the truth.

【题目】I fondly remember road trips as a child, sitting in the sunny backseat of my mom's car, daydreaming about other worlds and fantastic adventures. As I’ve grown older, my daydreams have become increasingly occupied less with fantasy but more with the reality of my past and future. Nearly everyone daydreams about their future and reflects nostalgically (念旧地) or negatively on moments of the past. These moments can provide inspiration, but if you spend too much time daydreaming in this fashion, you may be reducing your success in the present.
If you've ever planned a vacation, you're familiar with the impatient days tapping at your desk, dreaming of the lazy, relaxing days to come. Unfortunately, sometimes you end up comparing the real vacation to your imagined one, and it doesn't live up to the standard. Reflecting nostalgically on the past can also prevent present enjoyment. It is equally fun to reflect on past achievements or fun events, but it's possible to be so consumed with happy memories that you miss opportunities to create more.
We've all made mistakes that we’re ashamed of；reflecting on them is an important step in correcting those mistakes and becoming a better person. But dwelling（细想）too long on your past can also be negative. If you dwell too long on a past mistake, you can begin to equate（使等同）yourself with your past and feel farther away from the person you want to be. Train your brain to think quickly about the past and future, and take only the information and inspiration that you need in order to be the best person you can without resting on your glory moments or your mistakes.
If your identity is not dependent on the past or future, every experience is new and every day is a blank page for you to write. A fun mental exercise is to always tell yourself that you’re experiencing things for the first time. So take advantage of each moment you’re given.
【1】What does the author think of daydreaming?
A. It's the favorite for many kids. B. It can lead to fantastic adventures.
C. It's the major source of inspiration. D. It has both strengths and weaknesses.
【2】What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. Past achievements strongly influence us.
B. It's important to be patient with our present life.
C. Daydreaming may make the present disappointing.
D. Reflecting nostalgically on the past brings us no pleasure.
【3】What should we avoid doing according to Paragraph 3?
A. Reflecting on the past. B. Resting on our past experiences.
C. Thinking about our past mistakes. D. Feeling ashamed of our past mistakes.
【4】What's the author's purpose in writing the text?
A. To tell about her childhood. B. To tell how to let go the past.
C. To suggest we focus on the present. D. To encourage us to learn from mistakes.

Barditch High School decided to hold an All-School Reunion．Over 450 people came to the event. There were tours of the old school building and a picnic at Confederate Park.

Some eyes rolled and there were a few low groans(嘟囔声) when Ms．Yates was about to speak．Many started looking at their watches and coming up with excuses to be anywhere instead of preparing to listen to a lecture from an old woman who had few kind words for her students and made them work harder than all the other teachers【2】(combine)．
Then Ms. Yates started to speak:
“I can’t tell you how pleased I am to be here．I haven’t seen many of you since your graduation, but I 【3】(follow) your careers and enjoyed your victories as well as cried for your tragedies．I have a large collection of newspaper photographs of my students. 【4】I haven’t appeared in person, I have attended your college graduations, weddings and even the birth of your children, in my imagination.”
Ms. Yates then stopped【5】(cry) a bit before she continued:
“It was my belief 【6】 if I pushed you as hard as I could, some of you would succeed to please me and 【7】would succeed to annoy me．Regardless of our motives, I 【8】 see that you have all been successful in your chosen path.”
“There is no【9】(great) comfort for an educator than to see the result of his or her years of work．You have all been a great source of pleasure and pride for me and I want you to know I love you all from the bottom of my heart.”
There was a silence over the crowd for a few seconds and then someone started clapping. The clapping turned into cheering, then into a deafening roar. Lawyers, truck drivers, bankers and models were rubbing their eyes or crying openly with no shame all 【10】the words from a long forgotten English teacher from their hometown．

【题目】阅读下面短文, 根据其内容写一篇 60 词左右的内容概要。
Before a child starts school, his or her main role models are his or her parent or caregiver. Parents or caregivers with high self-esteem( 自尊) typically model this to the children, who will gradually pick up these ideas. Those who are influenced by negativity（否定性，消极态度), even if the negativity is not towards them, will often take the same way of thinking, leading to low self-esteem in childhood.
Continual praise for a child’s achievements plays a large part in a child’s view of himself or herself. Praising a child for acting as expected or something good often encourages him or her to repeat the same action and forms a sense of self-worth. Empty praise, however, can have the opposite（相反的）effect. A child who is praised for anything will stop believing the words, and the empty praise will have little effect on self-esteem in childhood or possibly a negative effect.
Providing a child with responsibilities based on his or her abilities is also important in the development of self-esteem in childhood. Making a child feel like a helpful member of a family or group, whether at home or school, helps to form a higher sense of confidence in his or her abilities. However, giving a child unfit responsibilities or tasks can do no good to the development of high self-esteem in childhood.
Each person has strengths and weaknesses. A child can build up his or her confidence level when he/she is encouraged to take part in activities ,which can provide him or her with chances to work on weaknesses(缺点) in a helpful environment . Children who are given the opportunities to use their unique skills to help others or improve themselves have higher self-esteem than those who are not given the same chances or who are pushed into activities that they do not enjoy or do not have an ability to do.
