    Success is often measured by the ability to overcome adversity. But, it is often the belief of others that gives us the courage to try.

    J. K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter book series，began writing at the age of 6. In her biography, she remembers with great fondness when her good friend Sean, whom she met in secondary school, became the first person to encourage her and help build the confidence that one day she would be a very good writer.

    “He was the first person with whom I really discussed my serious ambition to be a writer. He was also the only person who thought I was bound to be a success at it, which meant much more to me than I ever told him at the time.”

    Despite many setbacks, Rowling persevered in her writing, particularly fantasy stories. But it wasn't until 1990 that she first conceived the idea about Harry Potter. As she recalls，it was on a long train journey from London to Manchester that the idea of Harry Potter simply fell into her head.“To my immense frustration (沮丧), I didn't have a functioning pen with me, and I was too shy to ask anybody if I could borrow one. I think, now, that this was probably a good thing, because I simply sat and thought, for four (delayed train) hours, and all the details bubbled up in my brain, and this scrawny, black?haired, bespectacled(戴眼镜的) boy who didn’t know he was a wizard became more and more real to me.”

    That same year, her mother passed away after a ten?year battle with multiple sclerosis, which deeply affected her writing. She went on to marry and had a daughter, but separated from her husband shortly afterwards.

    During this time, Rowling was diagnosed with clinical depression. Unemployed, she completed her first novel in area cafes, where she could get her daughter to fall asleep. After being rejected by 12 publishing houses, the first Harry Potter novel was sold to a small British publishing house.

    Now with seven books that have sold nearly 400 million copies in 64 languages, J. K. Rowling is the highest earning novelist in history. And it all began with her commitment to writing that was fostered by the confidence of a friend !

    1.Rowling first came up with the idea about Harry Potter________.

    A. at the age of 6

    B. on a train journey

    C. after her mother’s death

    D. in her secondary school

    2.It can be concluded from Paragraph 5 and 6 that Rowling is________.

    A. open?minded B. warm?hearted

    C. good?natured D. strong?willed

    3.The text mainly tells us________.

    A. hardship makes a good novelist

    B. the courage to try is a special ability

    C. you can have a wonderful idea everywhere

    D. encouragement contributes to one’s success

    A

    A group of 1309 passengers boarded the MS Balmoral on Sunday, in Southampton, England, on a voyage to retrace(重走) the path of the Titanic. The Titanic was the biggest ship in the world when it sailed on its ill-fated first voyage on April 10, 1912. Of the 2227 passengers and crew aboard, more than1500 died. The ship, which was headed for New York City, carried the rich and famous on its first voyage. It also carried immigrants who were seeking a better life in America.

    Relatives of people who sailed on the Titanic, historians, authors and people fascinated by the story of the unsinkable ship were on the Balmoral. They wanted to remember the Titanic and those who died on her first and last voyage.

    The Balmoral is following Titanic's original route from Southampton. First, the modern-day cruise liner docked（进港） in the port of Cherbourg, France, where the Titanic had picked up more passengers. On Monday afternoon, the Balmoral stops in Cobh, Ireland, the Titanic's last port of call before sailing to New York.

    The Balmoral then sailed the North Atlantic Ocean to the location where Titanic hit an iceberg . On Sunday, April 15, at 2：20 a. m. --- the time the Titanic went down---passengers and crew held a memorial service. The next two days were spent in Halifax, Canada, where many victims of the sinking are buried. Then, the Balmoral will reach its final destination in New York City, where Titanic was supposed to dock—but never did.

    So far, several teams of divers have explored the site. They have recovered some items such as dishes and silverware and put them on public display. And more trips are planned to the wreckage in the future. The Titanic and its passengers and crew have been remembered in books, movies and TV programs. But there's a much more important contribution that Titanic gave us. After she sank, lawmakers and shipbuilders made ships safer. It took a terrible tragedy to make ship travel safer for all.

    1.We learn from the first paragraph that .

    A．about 700 passengers of the Titanic survived.

    B．the Titanic sank on its second voyage.

    C．less than 2000 passengers boarded the Titanic.

    D．all the passengers’ hopes of the Titanic lay in America.

    2.Which of the following shows the correct route of the Balmoral?

    a. Halifax b. New York City c. Cobh d. Southampton e. Cherbourg

    A．e-d-a-b-c B．d-e-c-a-b

    C．e-c-a-b-d D．d-c-e-a-b

    3.What might be the most important contribution of the Titanic?

    A．Its site attracts more exploring teams.

    B．It makes the later ships more secure.

    C．Some of its items are on public display.

    D．More trips are planned to its wreckage.

    根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

    There is distinction between reading for information and reading for understanding. 1.The first sense is the one in which we read newspapers, magazines, or anything else. 2.Such materials may increase our store of information, but they cannot improve our understanding. And clearly we don’t have any difficulty in gaining the new information, for our understanding was equal to them before we started. Otherwise, we would have felt the shock of puzzlement.

    The second sense is the one in which we read something that at first we do not completely understand. Here the thing to be read is at the first sight better or higher than the reader. The writer is communicating something that can increase the reader’s understanding.3. Otherwise one person could never learn from another. Here “learning” means understanding more, not remembering more information.

    What are the conditions in this kind of reading? First, there is inequality in understanding. 4. Besides, his book must convey something he possesses and his potential readers lack. Second, the reader must be able to overcome this inequality in some degree. And he should always try to reach the same level of understanding with the writer. If the equality is approached, success of communication is achieved.

    5. It is the least demanding and requires the least amount of effort. Everyone who knows how to read can read for entertainment if he wants to. In fact, any book that can be read for understanding or information can probably be read for entertainment as well.

    A. The writer should have a better communicating skill.

    B. Such communication between unequals must be possible.

    C. We can get access to the content of those materials easily.

    D. The writer must be “superior” to the reader in understanding.

    E. Thus, we can employ the word “reading” in two distinct senses.

    F. Reading for entertainment is capable of increasing our understanding for information.

    G. Besides gaining information and understanding, there’s another goal of reading—entertainment.
