If you have ever been discouraged because of failure, please read on. Often achieving what you plan to do isn’t the important thing. 1.
Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. While they were working, a few older boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers volunteered excitedly.
The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and a wide variety of insects. 2. Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we don’t.”
3. And that is what a goal is for –to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen, in other words, to have us digging!
But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully. Not every relationship will endure. Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. 4.
So when you fail to reach your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something !” It is in the digging that life is lived. 5.
A. He broke the jar into pieces.
B. He opened the jar and showed the wonderful things contained in it to the laughing visitors.
C. Let me explain.
D. Not every dream will come true.
E. Their goal was far too high, but it did cause them to dig.
F. Here are some reasons for you.
G. And I believe in the end it is joy in the journey that truly matters.

It was the break time, and the students was playing on the playground. Jack was playing the basketball with a group of boys while Lily told him that the headmaster wanted to see him. Jack seemed confusing. He thought, “I did something wrong. Why did the headmaster ask me to his office?” Then he walked there nervously.

More and more people are aware that an afternoon nap(小睡) can do a body good. But there are still doubters out there. To help spread the power of the afternoon nap, we list some common misunderstandings about napping we still hear.
Misunderstanding # 1 : Napping is only for the lazy.
Fact: Around a third of American adults nap on the average day, and for good reason: A short nap can improve everything from alertness(警觉) and memory to creativity and productivity(生产效率). And none of these sounds like laziness to us!
Misunderstanding # 2 : If I take a nap, I’ll only wake up feeling worse.
Fact: That weak feeling after you wake up from a nap is real (it even has a name: sleep inertia), but it’s not a guarantee(保证). How you feel after your nap is a factor of how long you sleep. Experts generally agree that a nap should last no longer than 30 minutes. “If it takes longer than 30 minutes, you end up in deep sleep. You’re going into a stage of sleep where you find it very difficult to wake up.” said sleep expert Michael J. Breus, Ph. D. Next time you’re in the mood for a nap, set your alarm for 20 to 30 minutes, tops.
Misunderstanding # 3 : You mustn’t nap at work.
Fact: In fact, in the office environment, we’re all for catching a few winks (眨眼) during the workday. Some companies have even created special rooms for afternoon naps as more and more employers come around to the idea that a well-rested workforce is a more productive workforce. If your employer doesn’t offer a place to lay your head, try to find an empty conference room where you can close the door and turn off the lights. Really want. You can also take a nap during your lunch break on a park bench or in your car.
Misunderstanding # 4 : I’ll be more productive if I just finish this task, rather than waste time sleeping.
Fact: Yes, you’ll be away from your desk if you spend 10 to 30 minutes sleeping. But you’ll likely make up for that “wasted” time afterward. “My research shows that people feel tired after a long time of work during the day,” Sara Mednick told Bloomberg Businessweek. “It’s difficult to keep energetic and productive all day.” However, a nap can leave you feeling refreshed and more ready to deal with the task at hand.
1.According to the passage, a short nap has the following benefits EXCEPT .
A. making people think more quickly
B. improving people’s memory
C. allowing old people to live longer
D. raising people’s work efficiency
2.How you feel after your nap is connected with ________.
A. the way of sleep B. the place of sleep
C. the environment of sleep D. the length of sleep
3.Sara Mednick indicates that _________.
A. taking a short nap at work is a waste of time
B. people become less productive without a nap
C. people become less productive after a nap
D. napping is only for the lazy and young children
4.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. The advantages of taking a nap.
B. The more naps you take, the more productive you become.
C. 4 things people get wrong about napping.
D. How to take an afternoon nap correctly.

A year after graduation, I was offered a position teaching a writing class. Teaching was a profession I had never seriously considered, though several of my stories had been published. I accepted the job without hesitation, as it would allow me to wear a tie and go by the name of Mr. Davis. My father went by the same name, and I liked to imagine people getting the two of us confused. “Wait a minute” someone might say, “are you talking about Mr. Davis the retired man, or Mr. Davis the respectable scholar?”
The position was offered at the last minute, and I was given two weeks to prepare, a period I spent searching for briefcase (公文包) and standing before my full-length mirror, repeating the words, “Hello, class. I’m Mr. Davis.” Sometimes I would give myself an aggressive voice. Sometimes I would sound experienced. But when the day eventually came, my nerves kicked in and the true Mr. Davis was there. I sounded not like a thoughtful professor, but rather a 12-year-old boy.
I arrived in the classroom with paper cards designed in the shape of maple leaves. I had cut them myself out of orange construction paper. I saw nine students along a long table. I handed out the cards, and the students wrote down their names and fastened them to their breast pockets as I required.
“All right then,” I said. “Okay, here we go.” Then I opened my briefcase and realized that I had never thought beyond this moment. I had been thinking that the students would be the first to talk, offering their thoughts and opinions on the events of the day. I had imagined that I would sit at the edge of the desk, overlooking a forests of hands. Every student would yell. “Calm down, you’ll all get your turn. One at a time, one at a time!”
A terrible silence ruled the room, and seeing no other opinions, I inspected the students to pull out their notebooks and write a brief essay related to the theme of deep disappointment.
