    19．Give people a chance before you judge them because you really never know what's going on beneath the surface．I am always reminded that judging a person by what others say or my first impression is usually wrong．
    It's so easy to make assumptions （臆想）and expectations about someone，just to find out they were completely false．The shy girl turns out to be one of the funniest girls I've ever met； the mean girl is actually very sensitive and loving； the cocky guy is unsure of himself，etc．
    I hope there is a world where we stop judging a person by what they wear，their hairstyle，their job，their car； we simply love and accept them for who they are．Someone may have untidy hair because they over slept，or their clothes don't match because their house burned down and lost everything．All I'm saying is，"can we focus more on what's going on inside a person rather than the outside？"
    There are so many people who seem like everything is just fine on the outside，but the inside is angry or hurting．They don't know how to just be themselves or they're afraid to because they may be seen as the"crazy"or"strange"persons．
    I truly believe everything begins with ourselves．Before we can really stop judging others by the outside，we must stop judging ourselves．We must know how to treat ourselves first．Let's stop getting in our own way and accept ourselves and others as we are．

    25．The underlined word"cocky"in Paragraph 2probably meansC．
    A．lovely      B．clever     C．proud    D．stupid
    26．When we judge a person，we should pay more attention toD．
    A．what he wears                    B．what he does or has
    C．our first feelings and thoughts D．what's going on inside him
    27．What's the best title of the passage？A
    A．Don't judge a book by its cover      
    B．Judge a person by his outside．
    C．Learn to just be yourselves．
    D．Accept what you are．

    20．I guess I always knew about the little fish treat，but this past summer it was all I could see．Pipin and Nemo were flying through hoops（圈），dancing with the trainer，and we were all applauding（鼓掌）-the little kids were excited．That's when the trainer，rewarded Pipin and Nemo with a fish．Each time they successfully performed a trick，they'd get an immediate reward．
    These animals weren't really dancing，of course．They were performing a series of movements that they knew would have a fish．It's such a good show because the sea lions look like they're having such fun．These talented performers who love to be in front of people seem almost human．
    Somewhere in our life journey，we all have a sea lion moment．You see how you've spent years jumping through hoops，not because it's really who you are，but because you've always done it and you will get reward for your performance．But when you've done that for ten or twenty years，you start to ask yourself，"Who am I working for？What do I really believe？"Suddenly you see it：you've spent almost all your life taking direction（方向） from other people．They've told you what to believe in，what to work for，how to live your life．You don't want to end your life like George．George is speaking to his son Ted，who cannot follow in his father's steps．He wants to leave college and head off on his own way．"Dad，I can't stand it any more，"the boy says．"Maybe it's all right for some kids．Maybe I'll want to go back some day，but now，I want to do what I want to and become myself．"George，seeming old，says，"I've never done a single thing I've wanted to in my whole life!"
    The Good-Bye Gate brings us naturally to a second passage，leading from being dependent to being self．You start to find out that where there is supposed to be a self，there really isn't．
    62．The sea lions were pleased to perform in front of people because theyD．
    A．will be punished if it refuses it       
    B．wants to win the trainer's favor
    C．wants to get others'applauses       
    D．can get food as a reward that way
    63．While watching the sea lions'performance，the authorA．
    A．realized an important life philosophy（哲学）
    B．recalled the similar scene of last year
    C．couldn't help shouting and dancing        
    D．was happy to see them living freely
    64．By saying"we all have a sea lion moment"，the author means thatB．
    A．anyone can make it as long as they work hard
    B．sometimes we don't do what we want to
    C．we can also get rewarded if we do something well
    D．every human being also has his happy moment

    A．Get rewarded               
    B．Summer Vacation Fun

    17．How many things can you see in the night sky？A lot!On a clear night you might see the Moon，some planets，and thousands of sparkling stars．
        You can see even more with a telescope．And with bigger and bigger telescopes you can see more and more objects in the sky．And you can see those objects in more and more detail．
        But scientists believe there are some things in the sky that we will never see．We won't see them with the biggest telescope in the world，on the clearest night of the year．
        That's because they're invisible．They're the mysterious dead stars called black holes．
        You might find it hard to imagine that stars die．After all，our Sun is a star．Year after year we see it up in the sky，burning brightly，giving us heat and light．The Sun certainly doesn't seem to be getting old or weak．But stars do burn out and die after billions of years．
        As a star's gases burn，they give off light and heat．But when the gas runs out，the star stops burning and begins to die．
        As the star cools，the outer layers of the star pull in toward the center．The star squashes into a smaller and smaller ball．If the star was very small，the star ends up as a cold，dark ball called a black dwarf．If the star was very big，it keeps squashing inward until it's packed together tighter than anything in the universe．
        Imagine if the Earth were crushed until it was the size of a tiny marble．That's how tightly this dead star，a black hole，is packed．What pulls the star in toward its center with such power？It's the same force that pulls you down when you jump--the force called gravity．A black hole is so tightly packed that its gravity sucks in everything--even light．The light from a black hole can never come back to your eyes．That's why you see nothing but blackness．
        So next time you stare up at the night sky，remember：there's more in the Sky than we can see!Scattered in the silent darkness are black holes--the great mystery of space．
    60．According to the article，what causes a star to die？A
    A．As its gases run out，it cools down．
    B．It has a collision with other stars．
    C．It can only live for about a million years．
    D．As it gets hotter and hotter，it explodes．
    61．Which of the following statements is NOT true？A
    A．There is nothing as mysterious as a black hole．
    B．Black holes have gravity．
    C．Black holes are invisible．
    D．Black holes are dead stars．
    62．What happens AFTER a star dies？B
    A．It becomes brighter and easier to see．
    B．It becomes invisible．
    C．It burns up all of its gases．
    D．It fails to Earth．
