【答案】One possible version:
Helen Keller is one of my favorite writers. She is an ordinary but great woman.
What impresses me most is her strong will. Disabled as she was, she never gave in to the misfortune. On the contrary, she was more optimistic than before. As we know, it is difficult for the disabled to learn. But Helen Keller was different from others, she was eager for knowledge. Nothing could change her determined mind. Her determination made her overcome various difficulties. That's why I respect her so much.
Whenever I think of “If I had the power of sight for three days, ...”, I can't help being touched by Helen. From her, I learn that we should value what we have and hold a firm belief in life however hard it is.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
C
In seventh grade, I decided to try out for my school musical. I only made it through the first part before the drama teacher stopped me. It goes without saying that my Christmas carol didn't get me any role.
Am I embarrassed? No. Not just because it was ten years ago, but also because it's such a great story to share. Why? I think the main reason is that admitting to mistakes makes you easier to relate to. Interestingly enough, science proves this theory.
Researchers have conducted numerous studies and have concluded that when someone makes a mistake or acts in a clumsy(笨拙的) way, they are found to be more likeable. In other words, if you're competent(有能力的) at something and then you mess up, it shows your human side. This allows others to connect and relate to you, which in turn makes them like you more.
Growing up, I was the type of student who had to get straight A's and the type of athlete who always had to perform at the top of the game. The problem was that my standards were so high that I was never happy. It was only when I learned to let go and forgive myself for my mistakes that I truly felt relaxed.
When one of your close friends or family members makes a mistake, are you quick to forgive and forget? Sadly, many of us often express more sympathy(同情) for others than ourselves. With each mistake comes a lesson, and if you can learn to let go and forgive yourself, you will be better equipped to handle life's challenges going forward.
More importantly, if you're frequently worried about looking silly, you'll never be able t o get improvement at work. Even if you make a fool of yourself, it isn't the end of the world. Think about it: what's the worst that can happen? In many cases, the reward often outweighs the risk.
(1)What does the underlined part “this theory” probably refer to?
A.A mistake makes you more likeable.
B.An embarrassed person tends to act clumsily.
C.Competent people always mess up in life.
D.It's not embarrassing to share mistakes.
(2)Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A.The author is proud of her work.
B.The author was once a perfectionist.
C.The author always made some mistakes.
D.The author felt ashamed of her high standards.
(3)What message can be got in the last two paragraphs?
A.Making a fool of yourself when necessary.
B.Being sensitive when it comes to forgiveness.
C.Viewing mistakes as l earning opportunities.
D.Not being afraid to face your mistakes.
(4)What does the author want to tell us in the passage?
A.It's okay to make mistakes.
B.Everyone may make mistakes.
C.It's time to forgive yourself.
D.How to forgive our mistakes.

【题目】阅读理解
Our room was on the second floor but you could still hear the roar of the ocean and see the stars at night. I used to take long walks along the water. The food in town was wonderful and the people were very friendly. The area was very quiet and peaceful, and fairly deserted.
The last evening of our vacation, however, we all heard strange footsteps following closely behind us as we were walking up to our room in the holiday centre. We turned around and noticed a fairly young man moving very rapidly across the beach and getting closer to us. He was tall and wore a baseball cap. We couldn't see his face and he was approaching us very rapidly. The man's actions made my dad very nervous. Dad warned us that we'd better try to make it to our hotel room as quickly as possible. I didn't like my dad's voice; I could hear fear in it. It was late and we were all alone. We didn't have any cell phones on us. I never saw Dad as worried as he was then and I knew that something was terribly wrong. The sense of fear started to overwhelm Mom and me. We had had such a good time in town. Now, the night was rapidly turning into a dangerous situation.
We could hear the man's footsteps getting closer. Dad's face was almost pale. The so-called intruder (侵入者) had moved nearer and nearer when all of a sudden, the nearby vending (自动贩卖) machine started going crazy and spitting out cans of soda! The noise actually scared the intruder and he ran out of sight. My parents were shaking, but we all turned around to see who had put money into the vending machine downstairs, and actually saved us, but no one was around at all. Not a soul.
It's one vacation I will never forget.

How to make friends
Friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends. Good friendship has many benefits. It offers companionship, improves self-worth and improves health. There are times in our lives such as when we have recently moved into a new town, or changed our jobs or schools. Such changes often leave us without a friend. But for many of us the process is difficult and requires courage. Below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep friends.
Associate with others.
The first step in making friends is associating with other people. You can go to public places to meet new people. Besides, you will need to make yourself known by becoming an active member of such places.
Start a conversation
Starting a conversation is the second most important step in making new friends.You can always start the conversation. Being able to make small talk is a very useful skill in relating with other people.

Choosing friends with common interests is important in building friendship as these interests would always bring you and your friend together. Hanging out will always be a pleasant experience.
Let it grow
It is a good thing to stay in touch. However, try not to press your new friend with calls, messages or visits as this would likely wear him or her out and finally you may lose your friend.The best friendships are the ones that grow naturally.

【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。
Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. .
Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they'll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly.
First of all, good talkers ask questions. . One well-known businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It's a common question,but it will get things going.” From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. . Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers .This point seems clear, but it isn't. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively.
. If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he's really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it's time for you to change the subject.
Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion of parting. If you're saying goodbye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “I've really enjoyed meeting you.” . Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they've known you half their life.
A. Real listening at least means some things.
B. You can become a popular person.
C. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question.
D. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.
E. If you want to see that person again, don't keep it a secret.
F. It's polite to listen to others with a smile.
G. These people have something in common.
