Once there was a man traveling in a faraway village. As he was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped. He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope(繩子) tied to their front leg. No chains(鎖鏈), no cages(籠子). It was clear that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not.

He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn’t try to get away. “Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller, we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that time, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they still believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free.”

How could it be? These animals could at any time break free from their ropes. But because they always stuck right where they were, they believed they couldn’t.

Just like the elephants, how many of us go through life believing that we cannot do something, just because we failed at it once before?

2.Why do the elephants never try up to break free from the ropes?

3.How did the man feel after he heard what the trainer said?

4.Which of the following is the missing part in the last paragraph?

A. Failing is part of learning.

閱讀表達(dá)。閱讀下面的短文,根據(jù)要求完成文后各小題。

Being tired of my noisy life in the city, I wanted to breathe some fresh air and experience a new kind of life. So I joined the “Earth care Project”. When I set out, I took nothing with me but some bad emotion(情緒).However, when the trip was over, my backpack was full of things, including joy, sadness, beautiful views and some knowledge about life.

In this exchange project, I was glad that I could get along well with the strange participants(參加者) from other countries. We tried to take care of each other. The group leaders, Paul and Reg, were both nice. They were very knowledgeable about plants, animals and the environment. However, they were completely different from each other-----one was very quiet and the other was very outgoing. They were a really interesting pair.

The most successful thing about this trip was that we had panted 1103 plants during the last two weeks. That was really encouraging. I felt very happy that I had done something useful for the earth with my own hands.

On this trip, I learned to watch and think more about the world around me, rather than just caring about myself. We should be kind to life. We should not only treat human beings well, but also animals, plants and nature. After this trip, I feel that I have become more active and outgoing. I won’t miss another trip like this in the future.

1.Why did the writer join the “Earth Care Project” at first?

2.Where did the participants of the project come from?

3.Did Paul and Reg have the same completely character?

4.Try to put the underlined sentence into Chinese.

5.What do the volunteers do in the “Earth Care project”?

Sixteen years ago, a boy gave me an important gift. It was a smile.

It was the early autumn of my first year at a middle school, and my old school was far away. As a result, no one knew who I was. I was very lonely, and afraid to make friends with anyone.

Every time I heard the other students talking and laughing, I felt my heart break. I couldn't talk with anyone about my problems.

Then one day, my classmates were talking happily with their friends, but I was sitting at my desk unhappily as usual. At that moment, a boy entered the classroom. I didn't know who he was. He passed me and then turned back. He looked at me, with a smile.

Suddenly, I felt the touch of something bright and friendly. It made me feel happy and warm. That smile changed my life. I started to talk with other students and made friends. Day by day, I became closer to everyone in my class. The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now.

One day I asked him why he had smiled, but he couldn't remember doing so!
