One day an old woman was traveling alone in the mountains. Suddenly she saw something shining（发光） in the stream. When she came close, she found it was a precious（宝贵） stone. She put the stone into her bag and went on with her trip.

The next day the old woman met a young man, who was also a traveler in the mountains. The young man looked very hungry, so the old woman opened her bag to share her food. The hungry traveler saw the precious stone and asked carefully, “The stone is beautiful. Would you like to give it to me?”

“Sure. Why not?” the woman said, and handed the stone to him.

The young man left happily with the stone. He knew it was worth enough to give him security for a lifetime. But a few days later he came back to return the stone to the woman.

“I’ve been thinking,” he said. “I know how valuable the stone is, but I give it back and hope that you can give me something even more precious. Give me what you have within your bag.”

The woman opened her bag. It was almost empty. She looked at the young man and smiled, “I have nothing special in my bag, but I do have something precious — the joy of giving!”

The young man felt ashamed（羞愧） and left silently.

Many years ago in a small village, an old man was hired to clear the spring (泉水) up on the mountain. He patrolled (巡逻) the spring every day, and swept away all the leaves and other things that would dirty the fresh flow of water. Soon, beautiful swans (天鹅) came to the clear spring, and the village became a popular attraction for visitors.

Years passed. One evening the town leaders held a meeting. As they looked at the salary list, one of them said, “Why do we keep this old man on year after year? I don’t think we need him or his work.” Later, the old man was asked to leave.

For several weeks, nothing changed. By early autumn, the leaves began to fall off the trees, and the spring was covered with leaves. A few days later, the water was much darker. Only a few months after the old man left, all the swans left, as did the tourists. Disease reached deeply into the village.

Quickly, the leaders held a special meeting. Realizing their mistake, they rehired the old man. Then within a few weeks, the spring began to clear up. Soon new life returned to the village.

So, my friends, do you see? No matter how small your work or your life seems to be, never overlook it. Anything we can do will make a difference.

It’s school time again! You’re probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared（害怕） on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school. Luckily, these “new” worries only stick around for a little while. Let’s find out more about going to a new school.

Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the stuff you’ll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you’ll know what’s allowed and what’s not. Please pay close attention

You might already know a lot of people in your classes on the first day, but it’s a great day to make a new friend, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don’t. Make the first move and you’ll be glad you did, and so will your new friend!

Seeing friends you haven’t seen for some time can make the first day a good one. You can make the day feel special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of sneakers（运动鞋）. It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you’ll be needing. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don’t have time in the morning.

1.The underlined phrase “kick off” in the second paragraph probably means “_____”.

A．start             B．study             C．find              D．teach

2.The last paragraphs mainly tell us about ________.

A．what to know about a new school

B．how to prepare for a new school

C．what to do on your first day of school

D．how to spend your first day of school

3.According to the passage you usually do everything on the first day of school except _______.

A．introduce yourself                      B．learn about the school rules

C．make new friends                       D．go over your new lessons

4.If you happen to see an old friend on the first day of school, from the passage we know that you will feel ________

A．nervous          B．lucky             C．happy            D．excited

If you have ever been discouraged(受挫) because of failure(失败), please read on. Usually, achieving(实现) what you set out to do is not the important thing. Let me explain.

Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch.

“What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors.

“We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers answered excitedly.

The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders（蜘蛛）, worms and a lot of insects. He removed the lid（揭开盖子） and showed the wonderful contents to the visitors who were laughing at them. Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we don’t dig all the way through the earth, look what we found along the way!”

Their goal was far too difficult, but it made them dig. And that is what a goal is for—to make us move in the direction we have chosen. In other words, it sets us to digging!

But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully. Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!” And I believe it is the joy in the journey, in the end, that truly matters.

1.The writer told us the story to ________ .

A．advise us to treats（对待） our failures fairly

B．persuade us to make an aim for our lives

C．encourage us to learn from the two brothers

D．prove that failure helps us make achievements

2.What’s the best title of the passage?

A．Failure is the mother of success

B．When there is a will, there is a way

C．No pains, no gains

D．Joy in the journey

3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A．Digging a hole all the way through the earth is impossible.

B．The writer thinks that the two brothers will reach their goal one day.

C．A goal is something that makes us want to dig holes.

D．Everyone can succeed if he sets a practical goal.

根据短文内容，从下面的A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。

A. Review（复习）regularly

B. Make good use of class time

C. Find a good place to study

D. Plan your time carefully 

E. Scan浏览） before you read

F. Take notes in class

Maybe you are an average student with an average intelligent. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so. Anyone can become a better scholar if he or she wants to be.  The following suggestions may be helpful to you:

1.

When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. Be sure to set aside（抽出） enough time to complete the work that you are normally assigned each week. Of course, studying shouldn't occupy all of your free time. Don't  forget  to  set  aside  enough  time for entertainment, hobbies and relaxation.

2.

Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything, but study materials. No radio or television! When you sit to work, concentrate on the subject!

3.

This means  looking  a  passage  over  quickly but thoroughly before you begin to read it more carefully. Scanning a passage lets you preview the material and get a general idea of the content. Scanning will help you double your reading speed and improve your comprehension.

4.

Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says. Really listening in class means less work later.  Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.

5.

When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you do it regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.

Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of test is to show what you have learned about a subject. Tests do more than just provide grades; they let you know what you need to study more, and they help to make your new knowledge permanent.
