This was a big  30  from the way I lived when I was younger. I was a(n) 31 , and the last thing I thought I would get into was drugs. Drugs  32 me from being the best sports player I could be.
I  33  to smoke drugs after I entered high school because that was what my new "cool" friends were  34 . The next three years were filled with many  35 , I was arrested twice, and lost my license for two years. This made me sad and  36 .
I realized I could not live this way; I must stop the  37  of using drugs.

小题1:D 从本段最后一句话中的from being the best sports player I could be可推知“我”过去是“运动员”。

小题1:C “我”进入中学之后,由于那些爱耍酷的新朋友对吸毒感兴趣,于是继续吸毒,因而用continue to do sth.。
小题1:B be into表示“对……感兴趣”。
小题1:A 由下文I was arrested twice...可推知“我”的生活在接下来的三年中充满了“坎坷”。
小题1:D 和sad并列的表示情绪的词应是depressed,表示“沮丧的,忧郁的”。
小题1:B 人们说吸毒成性,实际指的是一种习惯。“我”意识到自己要停止这种吸毒的“习惯”。
小题1:C 由后面的and actions have changed可推知只有“态度”改变了,行动才会改变。
小题1:D 由后文中的I haven’t killed my chance可知“幸运的是”“我”没有失去机会。

But _56_the topic of video games."Adults don't want to hear about your video game _57_they play it," Ursiny explains.
Adults also don't want to hear slang.Don't use language they don't _58_.Ursiny says kids should learn to speak to other people in their own language.
_59_,most adults aren't into slang, they do remember what it was like to be a kid.Ursiny recommends asking adults what school was like when they were your age."It might be a fun discussion if you _60_your
10th-grade experience with theirs."_61_you chat with your parents beforehand to find out which topics are
off-limits(禁区).
Also, don't chat about things that make your parents feel guilty.Don't mention _62_ stuff such as how Dad has been sleeping on the couch, Ursiny says.And don't complain that Mom has been late preparing breakfast.
Instead, Ursiny says, kids should try to put themselves in their parents' _63_.Learning how to _64_that type of understanding might help you out in the future."The most successful people, can develop a sympathetic feeling for others," he says.

A company advertised in the newspaper for a sales position. Details of the requirements, salary and benefits were given. It was also clearly stated that applicants needed to take an aptitude test (能力倾向测试) and an interview. However, looking at the whole advertisement, one could not find any contact information of the company.
Most interested applicants thought that it was the company’s HR department’s carelessness or a printing error. They therefore waited patiently for the newspaper to publish an amendment(订正). But instead of waiting for the newspaper to publish the company details, another three applicants took the initiative(主动性) to find out the company’s contact information themselves.
Tim did a search on the Internet. By typing the company’s name, he easily obtained all the information including its contact number. Lisa called up the local telephone number search service and found out the company’s office number. She called up the office and got the required contact information. Donna put in a greater effort in her search. She remembered seeing a poster by the same company in the city so she drove all the way down and made a few rounds to search for it. She finally found it together with the company’s contact information.
Three days after that advertisement was published in the newspaper, most interested applicants were still waiting eagerly for an amendment. On the other hand, the application letters and resumes of Tim, Lisa and Donna had already reached the hands of the company’s HR manager. They were then called up for an interview. During the interview, all went well and immediately they were hired. The three of them were a little surprised at how fast things went on. They were expecting for an aptitude test as stated in the advertisement. The HR director answered them, smiling, “Our test is hidden in the advertisement itself. To be a good salesperson in this age, he or she has to be broad-minded and very importantly, does not follow rigid (死板的) steps or rules. You are all clever. In a short time, you’ve managed to find ways of contacting us. It shows clearly that you have passed the test with flying colors!”
The fools sit around waiting for their chances whereas the wise actively take actions with great initiative.
小题1:According to the passage the company wanted to test the applicants’ ______.
A.sales skillsB.carefulnessC.attitudeD.initiative
小题2: Whose search skill is the easiest of all?
A.Tim’s.B.Lisa’s.C.Donna’s.D.None.
小题3:What can we infer from the passage?
A.The HR manager of the company made a mistake.

A.Many applicants thought the company made a mistake.

On a BA flight from Johannesburg, a middle-aged South African lady found herself sitting next to a black man. She called the cabin crew attendant over to complain about her seating.
“What seems to be the problem, Madam?” Asked the attendant.
“Can’t you see?” She said, “You’ve sat me next to a black. I can’t possibly sit next to this dirty disgusting human. Find me another seat!”
“Please calm down, Madam,” the attendant replied, “The flight is very full today, but I’ll tell you what I’ll do—I’ll go and check to see if we have any seats available in club or first class.”
A few minutes later, the attendant returned with the good news, which she delivered to the lady, who cannot help but look at the people around her with a smug and self-satisfied grin.
“Madam, unfortunately, as I guessed, economy is full. I’ve spoken to the cabin services director, and club is also full. However, we do have one seat in first class.”
Before the lady had a chance to answer, the attendant continued.
“It’s most extraordinary to make this kind of upgrade, however, and I have had to get special permission from the captain. But, according to this special situation, the captain felt that it was unbelievable that someone should be forced to sit next to such an obnoxious(讨厌的) person.”
Having said that, the attendant turned to the black man sitting next to the lady, and said, “So if you’d like to get your things, sir, I have your seat ready for you.”

“Everybody in this city wants a car, and I’m no exception. A car brings with it the freedom to travel”, said a friend of mine while reading a car magazine. I might not agree with him, but no doubt he was speaking for a rapidly growing number of middle-class Chinese. While it is true that all the waiting, walking, being part of a crowd, and sweating, are somewhat unpleasant, there are many problems which can arise when our lives rely too much on this invention.
First of all, in terms of polluting the environment, driving a car is the worst act an average person can commit. Beijing now finds itself at the top of the list of the most polluted capital cities in the world with Mexico City in the second place. Research also shows that by 2010 around 90% of total pollutants in Shanghai have come from cars. These pollutions are extremely dangerous to our health. They can damage the lungs, cause cancer, and damage the brain.
Apart from environmental problems, relying too much on cars also creates social problems such as traffic jams, road accidents, and noise pollution. The jeeps that proudly drive through the Hutongs in Beijing as if they are in a race often annoy me, and to make it worse, these drivers seldom respect cyclists.
Of course, we cannot forget the convenience that cars bring us when we need to travel far, but I often find it faster to cycle from one place to another within the city of Beijing, especially with the growing traffic jams.
Since people travel further and more frequently than before, cars will certainly be important in the future. At the same time, however, let us work hard to make sure that this invention brings us a more convenient lifestyle rather than trouble and disease. Let us make good use of cars.
小题1:What is this passage mainly about?
A.Environmental problems.
B.Traffic jams in Beijing.
C.Problems brought about by cars.
D.Benefits of using cars.
小题2: The underlined word commit in Paragraph 2 has the close meaning as ____ .
A.do something right or legal
B.do something wrong or illegal
C.do something good and meaningful
D.do something bad and meaningless
小题3:What do we know about the author?
A.The author doesn’t want a car.
B.The author agrees that a car offers freedom to travel.
C.The author suggests that we should rely on bicycles.
D.The author thinks that the invention of cars leads to many problems.
小题4:In Paragraph 3, what does the author mean by saying “The jeeps… often annoy me”?
A.The author is troubled by the way jeeps are driven in the Hutongs of Beijing.
B.The author thinks that Hutongs are too narrow for jeeps to drive through.
C.The author thinks that the jeeps are too noisy.
D.The author is worried that more accidents are caused by jeeps than any other cars.
小题5:What is the author’s idea in Paragraphs 4 and 5 ?
A.Cars are only convenient for people traveling far.
B.We should all give up cars and ride bicycles.
C.Cars have brought us more convenience than troubles.
D.We should choose between the car and the bicycle according to the situation.

When someone gives you advice, listen without judgment, try to find value in what you’re hearing, and say “Thank you”.This wise advice is easy to understand yet hard to practice.I’ll give you an example from my life when I totally blew it in terms of practicing what I teach.
In my work I travel constantly.I always put off going to the airport until the last second.My wife, Lynda, was sitting next to me in the front seat.I was racing along and not paying much attention.Lynda cried out, “Look out! There is a red light up ahead.”
Being a trained behavioral science professional --- who teaches others the value of encouraging advice --- I naturally screamed at her, “I know there is a red light up ahead! Don’t you think I can see?” When we arrived at the airport, Lynda didn’t speak to me.I wondered why she seemed mad at me.
During the flight to New York, I did a cost-benefit analysis.I asked myself, “What was the cost of just listening when Lynda called out the warning? Zero.” I then reasoned, “What was the potential benefit? What could have been saved?” Several potential benefits came to mind, including her life, my life, and the lives of other people.
I landed in New York feeling ashamed of myself.I immediately called Lynda and told her my cost-benefit story.I convinced her, “The next time you help me with my driving, I am just going to say, ‘Thank you.’”
A few months passed, and I had long forgotten the incident.Again, I was racing off to the airport, when Lynda cried out, “Look out for the red light!” I was embarrassed, and then shouted, “Thank you!”
I’m a long way from perfect, but I’m getting better.My suggestion is that you get in the habit of asking the important people in your life how you can do things better.And be ready for an answer.Some people may tell you things like “Look out for the red light.” When this happens, remember that there is possibly some potential benefit.Then just say, “Thank you.”
小题1:What do we know about the author?
A.He is expert at behavioral science.
B.He is gifted in cost-benefit analysis.
C.He always takes his wife’s advice.
D.He often runs the red traffic light.
小题2:The underlined part “blew it” in Paragraph 1 probably means “__________”.
A.lost personal judgmentB.forgot the practical method
C.became annoyed with the adviserD.failed to say “Thank you”
小题3:It can be inferred from the passage that people __________.
A.should give their opinions patiently
B.tend to be defensive when given advice
C.had better study behavioral science
D.intend to follow others’ suggestions
小题4:The purpose of the passage is to advise people to __________.

C.learn from the author’s experiences
D.treasure others’ suggestions
