【题目】It is common and usual to see people freak out when they face challenges in their life. We all pass in different life problems and challenges. No one is free of life problems. Only a dead man faces no problem. As long as you are alive, challenges are everywhere.
How do you face problems and challenges in your life? Problems and challenges are the building blocks of your personality. They make you who you are. Besides, whether what happened in your life builds or destructs you depends on how you look at it. If you take your problems as troubles, they will be troubles and may cause destruction. If you take them as constructive tools, you are going to be built up on them.
Problems are everywhere. No one can avoid them. And they are good too. They open up a different look and opportunity if you are willing to see. When you face troubles, do not frustrate or freak out. Just cool yourself to think in a different direction. Think in a positive way. Every problem has its own good as well as bad sides. Focus on the good one. Look at the bright side.
Besides, there is always a good person, perhaps your mom or dad, or one of your friends, right beside you who can turn everything into your best if you are willing to turn to them. No matter what happens, they will be there to help you. Trust them and they will never let you down. All you need to know is that you are loved wherever you are.

【题目】Last summer my daughter’s school was blown up. No students were harmed, but the main building was completely destroyed, as well as the nearby dorms.
Before you start trying to ask when this horrible act took place on U. S. soil, I should mention that this attack didn’t happen in reality, rather in my daughter’s carefully constructed Minecraft world. During an online journey with a few friends, a stranger came to her school and bombed the school she had carefully built. In a minute, her school was ruined. Sure, no actual property(财产)was damaged. But the emotional pain she felt was very much real. She thought this was a form of terrorism.
I shared this act of absurd online violence on my Facebook page, and fellow parents with Minecraft-loving children were just as shocked as I was. I had thought this was a unique experience, and my daughter was just unlucky that this happened to her. But, as it turned out, she was far from alone. The acts were performed by computer bullies(暴徒) known as “griefers”. The platform that my daughter was playing was the Minecraft: Pocket Edition(PE)version, which is popular with younger players. While she once only played in creative mode(模式), she began to play in the multi-player mode so that she and a few friends from school could build and create together. That multi-player choice made it possible for a stranger, one of these “griefers”, to do damage.
It was a painful lesson for my daughter that dangers happened suddenly. She understood we have to protect ourselves from bad people in the real world. Still, there was some goodness that came out of the ruins. Many fellow players of hers took the time to help her rebuild her school, which has been set up again. She is moved. Also, this experience opened her eyes.
【1】What was the result of the daughter’s school being blown up?
A. All the buildings but the dorms were ruined.
B. Many students were seriously injured.
C. Money needed to be seriously injured.
D. The author’s daughter felt hurt a lot.
【2】Before talking to other parents about the attack the author had thought that .
A. her daughter should be blamed for it
B. this attack was just a rare incident
C. danger happened all of a sudden on the Internet
D. her daughter was too lonely
【3】Which of the following is NOT true about the “griefers”?
A. They can help players build and create a new world.
B. They are performed by computer bullies.
C. They are likely to cause damage in the multi-player mode.
D. They disturb and cause sadness to game players.
【4】What did her daughter do after the incident?
A. Quit playing Minecraft.
B. Gave up multi-player mode.
C. Learned to defend herself against bad people.
D. Decided to rebuild her school independently.

【题目】The English language has a lot of words which can be used in many different ways and in many different expressions.
One such example is the word matter. In fact, matter can mean just about anything. It could be one of the most useful words in the English language.
Let’s get to the heart of the matter —a matter of principle(原则).
If someone says that you owe(欠) him $50, but you don’t, a friend might say, “Well, you could pay him the $50. It’s not that much money. Then you won’t have to hear him say it anymore. But if you do not owe him the money, do not pay him the money. It’s a matter of principle.
There is another way to use the word matter. But be careful with your choice of words.
If you ask someone, “What’s the matter?”, it shows you are worried about the other person. But saying, “What’s the matter with you?” has a completely different meaning. And it usually sounds rude (粗鲁的). In fact, when you say, “What’s the matter with you?” you are suggesting that the person did something wrong or stupid.
Another expression that could sound rude is to say, “It doesn’t matter to me.” Here, it depends on the context, and how you say it.
Let’s say you tell someone that a friend just got a big raise at work. That person answers with, “It doesn’t matter to me.” Here, it means he or she does not care. And it sounds rude.
But saying, “Oh, you pick where we eat dinner. It doesn’t matter to me.” does not sound rude. In this situation, “it doesn’t matter” shows you are easy-going(随和的).
No matter how you look at it and what you say, matter is a very useful word. And it’s only a matter of time before you will become an expert on the use of matter.
【1】We can infer from the text that the word matter ________.
A. has a wide use B. can mean money
C. is the most used English word D. has the most different expressions
【2】What is the author’s suggestion in Paragraph 4?
A. Every penny counts. B. Stick to what is right.
C. Follow your friend’s advice. D. Be careful when making friends.
【3】The underlined word “context” in the text probably means“
A. choice B. person
C. situation D. answer
【4】The author develops the text mainly by ________.
A. using examples B. giving instructions
C. describing his experiences D. discussing research findings
