We all go through times when we feel we are not good enough. We might feel that way at work or in school or even as a parent. Here are some things to remember when you feel like that.
1. —1.—. When I started my Ph.D. program, I felt like the dumbest person in every class. I couldn’t believe how many smart people were there. I didn’t know if I could measure up to their intelligence or compete in the same league with them. Years later, I found out that almost everyone felt this way, too.
2. You are unique and have special talents. If you can barely make Hamburger Helper, don’t compare yourself to your sister who is a chef(厨师). I’m sure you can do many things that she can’t. —2.—. You are you. You are not your sister.
3. You need to stop chasing perfection. It doesn’t exist. —3.—. So if you think that there is some objective measurement of perfection and that the rest of the world is judging you against, then you are wrong. Most people are too worried about their own lack of perfection to judge you.
4. —4.—. Our sense of self-worth is based in our thoughts. We have been programmed for many years with thoughts about ourselves. Messages come from our parents, our peers, teachers, the media and our own labels. But guess what? They are only thoughts. Just because you think these thoughts, it doesn’t make them true. —5.—.
A. You have the power to change your future.
B. So focus on your own passions and talents.
C. You are not the only one who feels this way.
D. You need to change your thought patterns.
E. What’s perfect to me is not perfect to you.
F. If you love yourself for who you are, other people will notice.
G. One of my favorite sayings is, “Don’t believe a negative thought you think!”

请认真阅读下列短文, 从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
FOR most people, life without plants is unimaginable. They feed us, clean up our air and brighten up our gardens. But what if someone told you that even our smartphones can benefit from plants?
Meet the scientists from the Freiburg University of Mining and Technology in Germany. According to reports from Reuters, they have come up with a way to take the important element germanium (锗) from plants.
The element was first discovered in Germany (hence the name) and was used to develop the first transistor (晶体管) because it can transport electricity very quickly. Nowadays, silicon-germanium alloy (硅锗合金) plays an important role in making computers, smartphones and fiber-optic cables (光纤电缆).
Although germanium can be found in soil around the world, it is difficult to extract (提取). In the traditional process, people take the material after zinc (锌) mining or burning coal. But the Freiburg scientists decided to fall back on the natural world.
Biology professor Hermann Heilmeier is one of the scientists who are using common plants for this uncommon process. “Different energy crops are being planted, for example, sunflowers, corn ... we want to use them for phytomining. In German we call it ‘mining with plants’.”
Others have used this method in the past with metals like gold and copper (铜). But in their study, the Freiburg scientists brought germanium from the soil into the roots and shoots of the plants, harvested them and then took the element from the plants. The process did not cost too much because germanium can be taken after plants are processed for use as biogas (沼气). So many of the costs are already covered in existing biogas plants.
However, there is still a lot of work to do before we can all experience the benefits. At the moment germanium can only be harvested in very small amounts, just a few milligrams per liter. Now scientists are working on different plants to improve this.
“As is so often the case, industry is still waiting because they want to see everything already working. Then they say, ‘We’ll have it.’ But of course we have to complete the step in between first,” said Professor Martin Bertau, head of industrial chemistry at Freiburg University.
1.We can learn from the article that germanium ______.
A. is mostly produced in Germany
B. can effectively transfer electricity
C. exists mostly in soil and water
D. is very easy to get from nature
2. What can we conclude from the article?
A. Germanium can be easily produced during the process of mining zinc or burning coal.
B. Sunflowers and corn are currently the most efficient plants to use when extracting germanium.
C. The process of harvesting germanium from plants isn’t costly because after harvesting, the plants can be used for biogas.
D. The new method for extracting germanium that the Freiburg scientists are trying is greener and cheaper than the traditional one.
3. According to the article, phytomining ______.
A. is a completely new method for extracting metals
B. has been widely used in extracting all kinds of rare metals
C. has different productivity depending on the type of energy crop
D. is now being tested on types of plants that it has never been tried on
4.Which of the following statements would Professor Martin Bertau agree with?
A. Many businesses have already started contributing money to this research.
B. Industry and science have stronger and closer connections than is generally expected.
C. People from related industries showed no interest in extracting germanium from plants.
D. Germanium has to be extracted from plants in large quantities before this type of extraction becomes industrialized.

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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Alexis, 17, sat quietly in the passenger seat of her dad's car. She let her eyes lazily scan the landscape for wildlife. Then a deer came into view about 200 yards in front of them. "Dad, there's a deer there!" Alexis said. It was a male deer with sharp antlers (角) on each side of its head.
As the car moved closer, Alexis saw that the deer's head was bent toward the ground. Then she heard a scream and saw an arm fly up near the deer's head. Alexis realized the deer was attacking a woman. Sue, a 44-year-old mother, had been out for her morning run. The deer followed her and edged closer. "I knew I was in trouble," Sue says. She went to pick up a stick for self-defense, and the deer charged. It lifted her with its antlers and threw her into the air. Sue could feel blood flew down her leg. Within seconds, the deer had pushed her off the road.
When Alexis and her father pulled up, the deer was throwing Sue like a doll. Alexis looked into the woman's terrified eyes, and before her father had even stopped the car, the teenager jumped quickly out of the car and ran toward the deer. "I was kicking it to get its attention," she says. Then her father, who had followed his daughter, pushed the deer away from the women.
Alexis helped Sue into the car, and then applied a piece of cloth to Sue's injured leg. "We're going to get you to a hospital," Alexis said. Then she heard her father shout loudly. He had been knocked to the ground. Alexis took hold of a hammer from the car and ran to where her father lay on his back. She beat the deer's head and neck, but the blows didn't scare it away. "I was losing faith," she says. "A couple more strikes, Alexis," said her father. "You can do it." Turning the hammer around, Alexis closed her eyes and beat the deer's neck with all her strength. When she opened her eyes, the deer was running away. Alexis got in the driver's seat and sped toward the nearest hospital.
After Sue was treated, she tearfully thanked her rescuers. "You expect a teenage girl to get on the phone and call for help," she says, "not to beat up a deer."
1.What was Sue doing when she was attacked by the deer?
A. She was driving home.
B. She was resting on the road.
C. She was taking exercise.
D. She was feeding wild animals.
2.What did Alexis do to save Sue?
A. She pushed the deer away.
B. She hit the deer with her feet
C. She drove the car to hit the deer.
D. She beat the deer with a hammer.
3.Which of the following words can best describe Alexis?
A. Strong. B. Cruel. C. Energetic. D. Brave.
4. What is the best title for the passage?
A. A Woman Was Seriously Injured
B. A Dangerous Deer Attacked a Woman
C. A Girl Rescued Her Father Successfully
D. A Teenager Saved Others from a Deer Attack

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。
We’ve all heard about the power of positive thinking, but a recent study found that people who think they’re getting fit actually get more positive benefits from activity, according to a Reuters Health article.
The study examined hotel housekeepers over a period of four weeks. Some of the housekeepers were told that their work duties gave them enough activity to meet the Surgeon General’s health guidelines (准则). Another group of housekeepers were told nothing. After four weeks, the housekeepers who believed their work activity counted as exercise lost weight and body fat, and their blood pressure went down.
The results of this study suggest that it’s important to understand and believe in the positive benefits of your activity. So here are a few things to think about the next time you exercise:
Just thirty minutes of quick walking each day can greatly reduce your risk of a heart attack. Even your housework ― like yard work and house cleaning ― can help you burn calories and increase your fitness levels.
Weight bearing activity just a few times a week can build bone density (密度) and reduce your chances of developing osteoporosis (骨质疏松).
Three 10-minute workouts（锻炼） throughout the day are just as good to your health as one long workout.
Moderate (适度的) amounts of exercise have been linked to lower rates of heart disease, stroke and even cancer.
Strength training can help make daily activities like carrying bags or laundry feel easier.
Regular exercise will reduce stress, keep you in a good mood and improve the quality of your sleep.
1.The main purpose of this passage is to _____.
A. encourage people to think they will get fit in different activities
B. tell people how to finish the work duties better
C. tell people how to lose weight
D. advise people to do more housework
2.It can be inferred from the passage that _____.
A. thought is more important than activity
B. housekeepers lead a happier life than workers
C. positive thinking does good to our health
D. if one wants to get fit, think more
3.The housekeepers who were told their work would keep them fit _____.
A. found it hard to finish their work on time
B. lost weight and enjoyed better health
C. had little sense of humor
D. gained weight after the work
4.Which of the following is NOT the suggested things to think about when you exercise?
A. Housework helps burn calories.
B. Regular exercise leads to better sleep.
C. Weight bearing activity does good to people.
D. Walking a dog reduces the chance of a heart disease.

On a hot August morning, in a classroom overlooking New York’s Hudson River, a teacher guides a group of 3-year-olds completely in Chinese. This is just a language summer camp run by the primary school Bilingual Buds, which offers a year-round course in Chinese as well as Spanish for kids as young as 2.
A lot of research now shows the regular, high-level use of more than one language may actually improve early brain development. Knowing two or more languages can improve the ability to focus, decide and deal with information better. These important skills are grouped together, known in brain terms as “executive function”. The research suggests they develop ahead of time in bilingual children, and are already evident in kids as young as 3 or 4. Bilingual education, common in many countries, is a growing trend across the United States, with 440 elementary schools offering the study in Spanish, Chinese and French.
But Tamar Gollan, a professor at the University of California, has found a vocabulary gap between children who speak only one language and those who grow up with more. On average, the more language spoken, the smaller the vocabulary in each one. Gollan’s research suggests that while that gap narrows as children grow, it does not disappear completely. Gollan says, “Vocabulary tests help us find that bilinguals have the disadvantage, where you know the word but you just can’t get it out.”
In fact some of the values of bilingualism can’t be measured at all, of course. To speak more than one language is to open the mind to more than one culture or way of life.
Bilinguals also appear to be better at learning other new languages. Clarisse spent her early childhood in Switzerland speaking French. At 6, she learned English. Later she learned Spanish, German, and, during three years living in Tokyo, Japanese. Now she has easily mastered several languages.
1.Why should children learn more than one language according to Paragraph 2?
A. Because it can do good to children’s brain development.
B. Because it’s part of a language summer camp.
C. Because it is common in many countries.
D. Because it is popular with children.
2.The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 probably refers to _________.
A. many countries
B. bilingual children
C. these important skills
D. two or more languages
3.According to Tamar Gollan, __________.
A. knowing two or more languages can improve children’s skills
B. the more languages children know, the better they will be
C. children had better not take vocabulary tests
D. bilingual education is not always good to children
4. From the passage we can learn_________.
A. Clarisse likes French best instead of Japanese
B. bilingual education is mainly loved by children
C. bilinguals can have a disadvantage in learning other new languages
D. knowing more languages can help children learn more about foreign cultures
