    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    For many years I had a good life. My illness was reasonably (适度的) under control, I had a nice relationship with my husband, I did work, I didn't hate. It was, as I said, a good life.
    But there's a saying that the good is the enemy of the best. I finally realized this one day, and began making my best life. I changed doctors and tried a new way that could relieve(减轻) my symptoms (症状) , rather than just making them easier to deal with. I started talking more with my husband and listening to what he had to say. And I quit(辞掉) my job and started working for myself.
    I have the best life I've ever had. I'd call it great. It is possible there's a better life for me, which would then be my "best life" , but for now I don't think so. I've started a business I love. My husband and kids are wonderful. I have a good friend and I'm close to my older sister who lives in town. Could it get better? I suppose so. But for me I think this is the best life I can have right now.
    Think more about your life. Where are you living? Are you in a job you just don't mind? What makes your life "good" ? Why isn't it great? What's the enemy of the best and what can you do about it?
    Enjoy your best life. We're only here for a short while, and we all need to have the best possible time we can. It's like going to Disney World. If you spend too much time standing in line waiting for the ride, pretty soon your time's up. Get out of the "good" line and have your best life.

    For most people, the word “fashion” means “clothes”. But people may ask the question, “What clothes are in fashion?” And they use the adjective “fashionable” in the same way: 
    “She was wearing a fashionable coat. His shirt was really a fashionable color.”
    But of course there are fashions in many things, not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays, in restaurants, in films and books. There are even fashions in school subjects, jobs…and in languages.
    Fashions change as time goes. If you look at pictures of people or things from the past, you will see that fashions have always changed. An English house of 1750 was different from one of 1650. A fashionable man in 1780 looked very different from his grandson in 1860.
    Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural. We hear about things much more quickly than in the past. Newspaper, radios, telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours. New fashions mean that people will buy new things, so you see there is money in fashion.
    【小题1】 From this passage we know that “fashion” means ______.
    A．clothes B．many things
    C．most of the popular things D．everything
    【小题2】Today fashions change very quickly because _______.

    B．radios send information from one country to another

    For us students who are studying at school, the time of exams is very stressful and difficult. Some people find exam times so bad that they become ill, because they
    are afraid of failing; they are afraid of letting their parents and family down. If exams are really making you ill or worried, don’t hide your feelings. Talk to someone about it. Maybe you can speak to a friend, or someone in your family, or teachers at your place of study. If one person doesn’t help you, ask someone else.
    How to get through exams? Here are some①         （建议）：
    Ask a teacher or tutor about how to review your lessons, and exam skills-how to work when you are in an exam.
    Take short rests during your time of work. If your mind is tired, it will not remember well.
    Plan your work: study at times when you know you will work at your best.
    Get enough sleep, and eat ②         （健康）food.
    You need exercise to work well. Walk, run, play sports-whatever you enjoy.
    Stop thinking about the future and failing.
    If you feel ill, talk to someone about your worries. But don’t be too relaxed!③Some stress over exams makes you work hard for them.
    If it upsets you to talk to your friends about an exam when it is finished, don’t do it! In fact, don’t even think about the exam you have finished. What is done is done. ④ 你不能改变你已经写的东西！
    To this advice, we could add:
    If you are studying in the evening, don’t go straight to bed. Your mind will still be“going round and round”-thinking too much. Do something else, maybe walk or get exercise. Choose something that will relax you, and make you think of other things.
    【小题1】Why do some students hate exams?
                                                                              
    【小题2】在①处和②处填上恰当的单词。
    ①                                 ②                       
    【小题3】将文中划线的句子③译成汉语。
                                                                           
    【小题4】将短文中划线的句子④译成英语。（每空0.5分，共2分）
    You                              what you                               .

    For a long time being happy was considered natural，and there was nothing special to do about it. Now we know that we can work at getting along well with other people. It is possible to act in such a way that other people will like us better.
    One way is being unselfish，not wanting everything your own way or asking for the best share of everything, including the attention of your friends. Another way is to look for good points, not bad ones in other people.
    You don’t have to be spineless(无骨气的)in order to be popular. In fact，you will be liked and respected(尊重)if you are not afraid to stand up for your rights(权利). But do it politely and pleasantly. One way to develop a good character is being friendly and polite to your own group,  to older people，to strangers and especially to those who do not look important or do not interest you.
    You cannot expect to be perfect,  so you must learn not to be too unhappy when you make a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes, and no one is to be blamed unless he refuses to learn from them. Many young people become discouraged(泄气的) when they know their unpleasant qualities—selfishness，laziness，etc. Just remember that we all have some of these faults and have to fight against them.
    When sometMng is wrong，it is best to try to make it right. Perhaps you don’t like a teacher or a classmate. Try to see why，and look at yourself，too. Make sure that you are not doing something to make others dislike you. In time, things may turn out all right, then you simply have to learn to get along the best you can with the situation, without thinking too much about it. Worrying never helps in a situation you can’t change.
    【小题1】Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined part?
    A．Not sharing anything with others.
    B．Not thinking too much of yourself.
    C．Not attracting the attention of your friends.
    D．Not making friends with people who have bad points.
    【小题2】How can we get along well with others according to the passage?
    A．We should find out unpleasant qualities in others and in ourselves.
    B．We should show others our unpleasant qualities.
    C．We should stand up for our rights in any way we like.
    D．We should fight against our unpleasant qualities.
    【小题3】What can we know from the passage?
    A．Even if we don’t have good relationships with others，we needn’t work at it.
    B．Even if someone is not important to us，we still need to treat him politely.
    C．Even if we are willing to learn from ouy mistakes，we are still to be blamed.
    D．Even if the situation cannot be changed, we still need to worry much about it.
