It was cause and effect: She believed I had opinions, so I began to6them. She trusted me to complete things, so I completed them perfectly. She loved how7I was, so I began to show up to paint more and more. She believed in me, so I began to believe in myself.[]Mrs. Neidl's8that year was, "Try it. We can always paint over it9!"I began to take10. I had been so afraid of failing but suddenly there was no failing-----only things to be11upon. I learned to dip my brush into the paint and 12create something.
The shy, quiet freshman achieved success that year. I was13in the program as "Student Art Assistant" because of the time and effort I'd put in. It was that year that I14I wanted to spend the rest of my life doing stage design.

the next morning. He asked me to speak to the group. After the call, my whole body became feverish and panicky. The time from his call to the next morning seemed like years. The whole night, I could not sleep with many ominous apprehensions in mind. One of them was to call the principal with regret and tell him that I could not come. Finally, I gathered some courage. I thought, “If I miss this opportunity, surely the school will never invite me again to any of their programs.”

I reached the school in time. Before my turn came, my whole body was trembling. When my turn came and I started speaking, my heartbeat increased and my mouth went dry. I wasn’t even able to read the written speech properly. I was not aware of where I was standing and what I was reading. That was the day when I realized my biggest weakness, Public Speaking.

【題目】You're happy to let your best friend borrow your mountain bike, but would you be willing to loan it out to a total stranger if you could make some money from the arrangement?

That's the idea behind peer-to-peer (P2P) renting, a new model concluded by sites such as eBay and Craigslist. Instead of selling an idle (閑置) thing, you loan it to people in your town, get paid a small rental fee and gel it back when the borrower's done with it. In the past few years, almost a dozen websites have popped up promising to connect lenders and borrowers. For example, you can use GetAround to rent out your car or motorcycle, SnapGoods to rent out electronics and gadgets, ToolSpinner to rent electric drills and lawnmowers, Zaarly and Knb to rent out a little bit of everything else.

Old as it may sound, P2P renting is more high-tech than before, with websites that avoid cash for credit cards. A user creates an online listing for the item she wants to rent out, choosing her own rental fee. When someone wants the item, he keeps it on an online calendar, and the two arrange a time and place for pickup. Each site operates a little differently, but all use technology to make renting easy, safe and relatively inexpensive.

Why rent your idle things? You may not make a ton of money, but it is a good way to get some use out of idle things. The people who rent those goods are able to save thousands of dollars by renting instead of buying new.

There may be other benefits. "It brings convenience, security and adventure," says Ali Hart, JustSharclt's spokesperson. “But, more importantly, we're really connecting people and building community, too."

Get to know your neighbors and make a few dollars in the process? Sounds like a good deal.

【1】What can GetAround, SnapGoods, ToolSpinner, Zaarly and Krrb possibly be?

A. the companies selling idle things

B. the websites for P2P renting

C. the special people good at P2P renting

D. the courses to teach people to do P2P renting

【2】What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?

A. How credit cards are used in P2P renting.

B. Why P2P renting should be encouraged.

C. How P2P renting works online.

D. Where the lenders and borrowers meet.

【3】According to Ali Hart, what’s the greatest benefit of P2P renting?

A. Making a considerable sum of money.

B. Saving money and protecting the environment. .

C. Making the Internet convenient and safe.

D. Keeping people in the community connected.

【4】What might be the purpose of the passage?

A. To encourage people to do P2P renting online.

B. To teach people how to rent idle things.

C. To explain why the Internet changes our life.

D. To guide people to be fashion consumers.

【題目】閱讀下面短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
B
China's new buzzword, tuhao, may be in next year’s Oxford English Dictionary.
“If its influence continues, it is very likely to appear on our updated list of words, ” said Julie Kleeman, project manager with the editing team.
In Chinese, tu means uncouth(粗野的) and hao means rich. It has traditionally been referred to rich people who throw their weight around in China's rural areas. In recent years, people borrowed the term to describe those who spend money in an unreasonable manner. The word gained acceptance in September with the launch(上市) of Apple's new gold-colored iPhone, an item loved by China's rich people. The color became known as “tuhao gold”. The word is now often used by the online community to refer to people who have the cash but lack the class to go with it.
Kleeman also mentioned two other Chinese words—dama and hukou—which may also be taken in the dictionary. Hukou means household registration(登記) in Chinese and has been widely used.
Dama, meaning middle-aged women, was first used in the Western media by the Wall Street Journal in May when thousands of Chinese women were buying up record number of gold. They were the driving force in the global gold market between April and June when the gold prices had gone down.
“We have nearly 120 Chinese-linked words now in Oxford English Dictionary,” she said. Some of them are: Guanxi, literally meaning “connection”, is the system of social networks and influential relationships which promote business and other dealings. Taikonaut is a mix of taikong, meaning outer space, and astronaut.
The new words will be first uploaded on the official website before the dictionaries arrive. The online version is also renewed every three months. “It at least broke our old rules. It used to take 10 years to include a new word but now we keep the pace with the era, ” according to John Simpson.
（1）What does “Tuhao” mean now?
A.The rich who like iPhone made of gold.
B.The people who have power in the countryside.
C.The people who spend money reasonably.
D.The rich who find no class to belong to.
（2）Why is the word “Dama” popular now?
A.They bought gold in the global market.
B.They are wealthy middle-aged women.
C.They brought the gold prices down.
D.They worked on the Wall Street.
（3）According to John, the Oxford English Dictionary__________.
A.updates its new version every three months
B.takes 10 years to include a new word now
C.speeds up its acceptance of new words
D.has its online version to collect new words
