     Attitude is one of the most important factors in determining success for all people. Successful people have
one thing in common-an expectant (期待的) attitude of success. Most people begin each morning in neutral
and react to events of the day. You can be one of the successful people in life by starting each day with a
positive attitude, a gratitude for the opportunities you have, and an expectancy (期待) of the best for yourself.
     People tend to live up to expectations. We get out of life just about what we put into it. Our environment
becomes a mirror of our spirit, our attitude, and expectations. If we set a great goal, we get great results. If
we have a fair goal, we accomplish fair results, and if we have a poor goal, we accomplish poor results. The
world will give you back what you expect, so expect the very best. Don't be defensive or doubtful. Nothing
changes unless you do. Before you can do something, you've got to be something. Know that you have worth
and value. Show that to the world.
     Treat everyone you come in contact with as the most important person in life. It will build self-esteem (自
尊心). Smile! You'll be rewarded with a returned smile. Don't react to others rudely. Forgive everyone who
ever hurt you. Then, forgive yourself. Keep yourself healthy. Exercise. Eat a proper diet. Display an attitude
of confidence.
     Develop these good habits and your expectancy will be rewarded by successes. This attitude will put you
into that group of people who are truly successful, because you will know and understand how an expectant
attitude enhances (提高) every aspect of your life.
1. According to the author, we are likely to achieve success if we _____.
A. take a positive attitude
B. hold on to our dreams
C. have a good opportunity
D. show gratitude every day
2. We learn from Paragraph 2 that _____.
A. success mainly depends on your efforts
B. our environment reflects what we think
C. the greater our goal, the better results we will get

3. Paragraph 3 tells us that _____.

B. we should treat everyone else fairly

    Tragedy at the Circus

    　　In yesterday's circus(馬戲團)show, a tiger suddenly attacked its trainer and had to be shot dead．As the circus packed up and left, circus officials said the show would go on, even without tigers．However, the officials can't simply turn a blind eye to the ethical(道德的) problems left behind．Even before this tragedy, animal rights activists protested against keeping wild animals in unnatural conditions and forcing them to suffer for the profit(利潤)of circus organizers．

    　　It is now time for us to take effective steps to make sure that circus animals are treated properly．

    Circus Safe for Animals

    　　Our circus recently suffered a most tragic event in its history．While we are thankful for the pity from the public, we are also astonished by the opinion expressed in“Tragedy at the Circus．”

    　　First, our performing animals are not taken from the wild．As to the ethical problems, we always believe humans and animals can-and should-live together nicely．To us, the performing animals are representatives of their species, and our circus is one of the only places left willing to support this special role of performing animals in the existence of the species．Those who argue that circus life is harmful to animals show little knowledge of these facts．Life in the“wild”is unsafe, but a continuous struggle for existence．To overlook these realities is the greatest fault against the animal kingdom．

    　　This circus has proven that animals are stronger and smarter than we could imagine．Within the circus is a joyful atmosphere for both animals and humans：people are educated, and species saved．

    What is the main purpose of the first passage?

    [　　]

    To show pity for the performing animals．

    B．

    To express worries about animal trainers'safety．

    C．

    To deal with the difficult situations of the circus．

    D．

    To call for action to protect circus animals．

    (2)

    What will the circus most probably do?

    [　　]

    A．

    Take no notice of the tragedy．

    B．

    Continue its performances．

    C．

    Use fewer wild animals．

    D．

    Limit its profit．

    (3)

    What does the circus think of its performing animals?

    [　　]

    A．

    They are as clever as human beings．

    B．

    They struggle continuously with human beings for existence．

    C．

    They are helpful in saving their species．

    D．

    They have equally natural living conditions as wild animals．

    (4)

    What is the most probable relationship between the two passages?

    [　　]

    A public request and a newspaper report．

         At one time no one could travel on an English road faster than four miles an hour. That was the law until
    1896. A man had to walk in front of a car which could not go faster than the man. At night the man had to
    carry a red lamp.
         Once Charles Rolls brought a car from France to England, but he wanted to drive faster than four miles
    an hour.In order to have no trouble with the police, he had a talk with some of the police officers, who ordered
    their policemen to look the other way when the car came along the road. This was a good plan in the country,
    but not so easy to follow in the busy streets of London.
         One night Rolls and some friends started from London on their journey to Cambridge. One of the men
    walked in front with the red lamp, but he walked as fast as he could.The police became very interested in walls
    and shop-fronts when they heard the car,and not one of them saw it.
         They reached a hill ;but what a waste of time it was to drive down the hill at four miles an hour! Rolls was
    getting ready to jump into the car; but then he noticed a policeman who was not looking the other way. The
    slow car reached him.
         "Good evening," said the policeman,looking at the car.
         "Good evening," said Rolls,holding the lamp.
         "One of these horseless things," said the policeman, looking at it with interest.
         "Yes," said Rolls, and waited.
         "I've often wanted a ride in one ; but of course policemen can't buy things like that." He turned and looked
    hopefully in Rolls's face.
         "Jump in," said Rolls.
         "Thanks," said the policeman,and did so."Now,"he said,  sitting down,"you can let it go just as you like
    down this hill. There isn't another policeman on this road for a mile and a half."
    1.The policemen were told "to look the other way" (the underlined part in Paragraph 2) so that _____.
    A. they could watch the car coming from the other direction
    B. the car could go faster than four miles an hour
    C. they could make sure no one was in the way
    D. the car would not hit them on the road
    2. In what way did the policemen carry out the order from their officers?
    A. They greeted Rolls when the car came along.
    B. They walked in front of the car with a red lamp.
    C. They pretended to be attracted by something else.
    D. They stood on duty every 1.5 miles along the road.
    3. The policeman who said "Good evening" to Rolls wanted to _____.
    A. teach Rolls a lesson
    B. take a free ride home
    C. have a talk with Rolls
    D. have a car ride experience

    閱讀理解
         Moving at any time of a year is difficult, but if you have a flexible schedule and are not on a specific
    timeline, there are several factors to consider when deciding when to move. Keep in mind that these
    factors could also be part of a negotiation deal with your employer if you are being relocated or if
    starting a new position.
         If you have children at home, it is best to work around the school calendar.  Summer is an ideal time,
    as children have completed another grade and have said their goodbyes to school friends. Planning to
    move directly following the end of school, however, does not give your children time to adapt to the
    idea of moving, to say goodbye to neighborhood friends and their home. When setting the date, allow
    a few weeks at the new destination for children to unpack and meet new neighborhood friends. They
    will be better prepared for the school year if they have time to make their new house their home.  Too
    much change can be detrimental to performance and emotional wellbeing.
         What works best for your children also works best for you. As part of the settling in process, take
    a few days for you and your children to check out the new school, meet some teachers and find
    appropriate transportation. Both you and your children will be better prepared, leading to a smoother
    transition.
        When possible, avoid moving before major holidays, such as Christmas, since part of such holidays
    is being with family and friends. Birthdays, and other family events can also be difficult. Give yourself
    enough time in your new place before the holiday season begins to meet new people and feel a sense
    of community. Better yet, save your move for immediately following a holiday. Holidays provide a
    perfect opportunity for goodbyes and final gettogethers.
         Most people would agree that summer is the best time to move. Children are out of school, the
    weather is almost guaranteed to be perfect and friends are available to help. If this is your ideal time to
    move, make sure you check moving company schedules and rates before confirming your move date.
      Most companies have peak times and will charge higher rates accordingly. Also, if you are planning
    to move at peak times, you will need to be better organized to ensure that a moving company or a
    moving truck is available for the date and times you require. Keep in mind that the level of the service
    often changes between the summer months, when students replace fulltime experienced movers, and
    offseason.
         As much as summer could cost you more, winter, as common sense indicates, is also not an ideal
    time to move. Travel is difficult, both for you and your family, along with the moving company.  Items
    kept overnight in a truck under freezing conditions may result in damaged goods.  If you are moving
    from one climate to another, water damage may occur when the mode of transport that is moving your
    household items travels from a cold environment to a warmer climate. Freezing and thawing cause the
    most damage if items are not properly sealed.

    1. According to the passage, before moving children usually ________.
       A. meet new neighborhood friends
       B. pack their package
       C. say goodbye to neighborhood friends
       D. complete their grades

    2. What is the disadvantage of moving in summer?
       A. The weather.
       B. Moving company schedules.
       C. The changeable level of the service.
       D. Without friends' help.

    3. According to the passage, when is the best time to move?
       A. Winter.                  
       B. Vacations.
       C. Major holidays.            
       D. Summer.
