【题目】We are humans, and we all make mistakes. The mistakes that we make are not usually on purpose, whether it is breaking a vase, or not completing a task. 【1】 This article will provide you with ideas as to what to do once a mistake has been made.
Admit that you make a mistake as soon as you discover it. Delaying it longer will only make you feel worse, or may drive you toward making the wrong decision to try and cover it up.
【2】 Do not play the “blame game”. Most people are smart enough to realize that this is just a poor attempt to protect yourself. Perhaps you gave a task to another person and it was never completed. But is it really the entire fault of the person you gave the task to or is it partially your fault for not following up? Keep this in mind before placing the blame on someone else.
【3】 Maybe you broke your mother’s favorite vase, or even forgot a friend's birthday. Just an apology can sometimes be viewed as a “quick fix”, and apologizing and asking to be forgiven gives the person opportunity to forgive you.
Offer some compensation(补偿) for loss, damage, or injury caused. 【4】 By doing this, it may soften the blow to the person we've disappointed.
Learn from your mistakes. In the case of a job or a task, write a "to-do" list with the deadline before leaving the meeting. As for forgetting a birthday, put the birthday on an electronic calendar for next year.
Do better next time. 【5】 We should try to understand what happened and try to make sure that it won’t happen again.
A. Take responsibility.
B. Never repeat your mistakes.
C. Apologize and ask for forgiveness.
D. People’s faith in us can reduce quickly.
E. So sometimes it is necessary to write a letter to say sorry.
F. But not everyone knows how to admit making a mistake.
G. Offer to immediately complete the late task or pay for the vase.
【答案】
【1】F
【2】A
【3】C
【4】G
【5】B
【解析】我们是人，人都会犯错误。本文将向您提供关于一旦错误发生后该如何做的建议。
【1】F 根据前文We are humans, and we all make mistakes. The mistakes that we make are not usually on purpose, whether it is breaking a vase, or not completing a task.可知，主要讲每个人都会犯错；再根据后文This article will provide you with ideas as to what to do once a mistake has been made.可知，下面讲一旦犯错后该如何做，故空格处是承上启下，说“但不是每个人都知道如何承认错误”。故选F。
【2】A 根据后文Do not play the “blame game". Most people are smart enough to realize that this is just a poor attempt to protect yourself. Perhaps you gave a task to another person and it was never completed. But is it really the entire fault of the person you gave the task to or is it partially your fault for not following up? Keep this in mind before placing the blame on someone else.可知，这里想说要承担责任。故选A。
【3】C 根据后文Maybe you broke your mother's favorite vase, or even forgot a friend's birthday. Just an apology can sometimes be viewed as a “quick fix", and apologizing and asking to be forgiven gives the person opportunity to forgive you.可知，这里想说“要道歉和请求原谅”，因为道歉和请求原谅不仅会让其他人原谅自己，也会让自己原谅自己。故选C。
【4】G 根据前文Offer some compensation（补偿）for loss, damage, or injury caused.可知，要为引起的损失或伤害提供补偿；故G项“马上要求完成推迟的任务或是为打碎的花瓶赔偿”的行动，会减轻对我们失望的人的打击，也就是下一句By doing this, it may soften the blow to the person we've disappointed.的结果，故选G。
【5】B 根据前文Do better next time. 和后文We should try to understand what happened and try to make sure that it won't happen again.可知，这里想说“决不再重复错误”。故选B。

【题目】The park bench was deserted as I sat down to read beneath the branches of an old willow tree, with good reason to frown, for the world was intent on dragging me down. At this time, a boy approached me. He stood right before me, and said with great excitement, “Look what I found!”
In his hand was a flower, and what a pitiful sight, with its petals (花瓣) all worn. Wanting him to take his flower and go off to play, I faked a small smile and then turned to the other side.
But instead of leaving, he sat next to my side and placed the flower to his nose and declared, “It really smells pretty and it’s beautiful, too. That’s why I picked it. Here, it’s for you.”
The flower before me was dying or dead. But I knew I must take it, or he might never leave. So I reached for the flower, and replied, “Just what I need.”
But instead of placing the flower in my hand, he held it in mid-air. It was then that I noticed that the boy was blind.
I heard my voice quiver (轻微颤抖), and at the same time my tears shone like the sun. As I thanked him for picking the very best one, he smiled and said, “You’re welcome.” And then he ran off to play, unaware of the impact he’d had on me.
I sat there and wondered how he managed to see a self-pitying woman beneath an old willow tree. Perhaps from his heart, he’d been blessed with true sight.
Through the eyes of the blind boy, I could see the problem was not with the world; the problem was me. And for all of those times I had been blind. From now on I vowed to see beauty and appreciate every second that’s mine. Then I held the flower up to my nose and breathed its fragrance and smiled as that young boy.
【1】When she sat down to read on the bench, the author _______.
A. felt relaxed and peaceful
B. felt upset and unhappy with her life
C. wanted to have a friend keeping her company
D. felt proud to have overcome the difficulties in life
【2】The boy gave the flower to the author probably because _______.
A. he didn’t like it any more
B. he wanted to give the author a lesson
C. he realized the author was in a bad mood
D. he was sure the author would be happy with it
【3】Why did the author decide to take the flower at first?
A. Because she was really moved by the boy.
B. Because she didn’t want to hurt the young boy.
C. Because she thought the flower was really beautiful.
D. Because she didn’t like being bothered by the boy any more.
【4】Which of the following can best describe the boy?
A. Handsome and intelligent.
B. Kind and optimistic.
C. Warmhearted and sensitive.
D. Independent and active.

【题目】I love charity(慈善) shops and so do lots of other people in Britain because you find quite a few of them on every high street. The charity shop is a British institution, selling everything from clothes to electric goods, all at very good prices. You can get things you won’t find in the shops anymore. The thing I like best about them is that your money is going to a good cause and not into the pockets of profit-driven companies, and you are not damaging the planet, but finding a new home for unwanted goods.
The first charity shop was opened in 1947 by Oxfam. The famous charity’s appeal to aid postwar Greece had been so successful it had been flooded with donations(捐赠物). They decided to set up a shop to sell some of these donations to raise money for that appeal. Now there are over 7,000 charity shops in the UK. My favourite charity shop in my hometown is the Red Cross shop, where I always find children’s books, all 10 or 20 pence each.
Most of the people working in the charity shops are volunteers, although there is often a manager who gets paid. Over 90% of the goods in the charity shops are donated by the public. Every morning you see bags of unwanted items outside the front of shops, although they don’t encourage this, rather ask people to bring things in when the shop is open.
The shops have very low running costs: all profits go to charity work. Charity shops raise more than ￡110 million a year, funding(资助) medical research, overseas aid, supporting sick and poor children, homeless and disabled people, and much more. What better place to spend your money? You get something special for a very good price and a good moral sense. You provide funds to a good cause and tread lightly on the environment.
【1】The author loves the charity shop mainly because of .
A. its convenient location B. its great variety of goods
C. its spirit of goodwill D. its nice shopping environment
【2】The first charity shop in the UK was set up to .
A. sell cheap products B. deal with unwanted things
C. raise money for patients D. help a foreign country
【3】Which of the following is TRUE about charity shops?
A. The operating costs are very low. B. The staff are usually well paid.
C. 90% of the donations are second-hand. D. They are open twenty-four hours a day.
【4】Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?
A. What to Buy at Charity Shops.
B. Charity Shop: Its Origin & Development.
C. Charity Shop: Where You Buy to Donate.
D. The Public’s Concern about Charity Shops.
