    Sir Steven Redgrave

    Winner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals

    “In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes(糖尿病) . Believing my career was over, I felt extremely low. Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing. That was it—the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believe in myself. I am not saying that it isn’t difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn’t finished yet. Nothing is to stand in my way.”

    Karen Pickering

    Swimming World Champion

    “I swim 4 hours a day, 6 days a week. I manage that sort of workload by putting it on top of my diary. This is the key to success—you can’t follow a career in any field without being well-organized. List what you believe you can achieve. Trust yourself, write down your goals for the day, however small they are, and you’ll be a step closer to achieving them.”

    Kirsten Best

    Poet & Writer

    “When things are getting hard, a voice inside my head tells me that I can’t achieve something. Then, there are other distractions, such as family or hobbies. The key is to concentrate. When I feel tense, it helps a lot to repeat words such as ‘calm’, ‘peace’ or ‘focus’, either out loud or silently in my mind. It makes me feel more in control and increases my confidence. This is a habit that can become second nature quite easily and is a powerful psychological tool.”

    After we meet people it is up to us to make them our friends. Let us stop a moment and consider what really makes a friend. The major qualities like faithfulness, devotion, friendly company, flash through our minds. But it is the large number of very small particular qualities that make up one’s whole character, such as cheerfulness, friendliness, and punctuality (守时). After all, “ to make a friend, be a friend” is not such a big and difficult order. There are particular favorable qualities, which attract others to us, and some elements which do have an effect on people in fundamental psychology(基础心理学) or not.

    If you are in the presence of a shy person, talking and asking casual (随意的) questions may bring him out of his shell. Think of what would be most acceptable to the other person, for you to talk, or to listen. Either way the goal is to make yourself pleasant.

    Always remember to listen, but listen intelligently. To have anyone “ hang on our words” is the most unnoticeably clever way in the world to please somebody. For a few extremely happy seconds we are the center of attraction, but when it is our turn to be audience, let us remember how we felt as the actor, and let’s be genuinely (真正地) interested in what the other fellow is saying.

    Other people will like us, if we like them. If you want friends, keep your mind and heart open to friendship. Be alive to the other person’s world.

    1.This passage is mainly about_______.

    A. the ways of talking to a shy person

    B. some favorable qualities to be a psychologist

    C. how to make yourself attractive to your listeners

    D. how to make a friend and be a friend

    2.The words “ bring him out of his shell” in this passage most probably mean _______.

    A. make him become active

    B. make him feel more nervous

    C. help him understand the question better

    D. help him listen intelligently

    3.According to the passage, an important way in making friends is to ________.

    A. attract them B. be attracted

    C. listen attentively D. talk widely

    BEIJING — Rising smartphone star Xiaomi is moving upmarket and taking aim at Apple's iPhone. The Chinese maker known for low-priced phones on Thursday unveiled (发布) a new model that Chairman J un Lei said is comparable to Apple's iPhone 6 but thinner, lighter and much cheaper. The phone starts at 2, 299 yuan ($375), less than half the 5,288 yuan ($ 865) price of an iPhone 6 in China.

    Xiaomi, founded in 2010, passed South Korea's SaM:ung Electronics Co. in the second quarter of last year as the best-selling smartphone brand in China by number of phones sold. The company is expanding into India and other developing markets but has yet to announce plans to enter the United States or Europe.

    Xiaomi "is a respected brand that already has an Apple-like following" in China, said analyst Brian Blair, who tracks mobile device makers at Rosenblatt Securities. Apple is still a relatively small player in China, selling about 45 million iPhones there last year, Blair estimates, but will continue to grow.

    "Apple is very much a premium (高端的) brand," said Blair. "The company that's more at risk is SaM:ung, which has been losing share in that market."

    Privately held (私人控股的) Xiaomi said last year's sales tripled to 61. 1 million phones and revenue (收益) more than doubled to 74. 3 billion yuan ($12.2 billion). The company, based in Beijing, recently completed a round of fundraising from investors that it said valued Xiaomi at $ 45 billion, making it one of the world's most valuable technology brands.

    Xiaomi ran into legal trouble in India in December after a court blocked sales while it hears a complaint by Sweden's LM Ericcson that the Chinese company violated its patents.

    In a blog post earlier this month, Lei called the case a "rite of passage" (成年礼) for a young company.

    1.Which of the following statements is true?

    A. Xiaomi sold more cellphones than SaM:ung in 2010 in China.

    B. Compared to Xiaomi, Apple's iPhone 6 is thinner and lighter.

    C. Low-price is Xiaomi's advantage over Apple's iPhones.

    D. The company is expanding into the United States or Europe.

    2.What can be inferred from the passage according to Brian Blair?

    A. More than 45 million iPhones will be sold this year.

    B. Xiaomi can beat Apple in the market of China.

    C. He thinks Xiaomi is superior to Apple.

    D. SaM:ung will be closed for losing share in the market.

    3.How is the 5th paragraph developed?

    A. By giving examples.

    B. By analyzing cause and effect.

    C. By providing data.

    D. By making comparisons.

    4.What's the attitude of Jun Lei towards the case of Xiaomi in India?

    A. Negative. B. Satisfied.

    C. Positive. D. Doubtful.

    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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑，选项中有两项为多余选项。

    There is an old Spanish saying which states, "Tomorrow is often the busiest day of the week." How many times have we put off our dreams until tomorrow? 1. We have to go for them now!

    ·Tomorrow is not promised.

    Nobody likes to talk about death, but everybody is going to die at one point. None of us know the day or the hour. 2. Don't go to your tomb with unrealized dreams. Make the decision to go after every dream, big or small right now.

    ·3.

    One of the biggest dream killers is fear. Many people could have achieved amazing things if only they weren't afraid. Just think about all the things you've wanted to do, but allowed fear to convince you that you weren't capable, or good enough. Fear is not real. It is a product of thoughts you create. Choose not to let fear stop you from achieving your dreams.

    ·Take action to realize your dream.

    You can dream about writing a great play but it's never going to happen unless you actually put pen to paper. You can dream about finding a cure for cancer, but it will never happen unless you actually become equipped with the necessary tools to find that cure. 4.

    ·Possibilities are waiting on you.

    There are so many amazing opportunities and people waiting on you. How do you get to them? Simple! Follow your dream. 5. You'll never see those doors if you sit around waiting on a dream to happen, instead of actually working to make it happen.

    A. Don't let fear win.

    B. In other words, dreams don't work unless you do.

    C. Our dreams should not, and cannot wait.

    D. Therefore, today is all we have.

    E. You'll be much happier if you go for it.

    F. You were born into the world with a unique gift, which nobody can copy.

    G. Doors that you couldn't imagine open up when you go after what you want.
