A couple of years ago, a minister(牧師) in an American church got fed up with listening to the people in his church complaining. They were complaining about little   36 : the service(禮拜儀式) was too long, the service was too short; they didn’t like the choice of   37    they had to sing in church. He felt all this complaining was   38   everyone feel negative. So, he   39    to do something about it.
He gave the people in his church a(n)  40  : try to stop complaining for 21   41  .And not just about the church, about everything! He   42    gave each person in the church a purple bracelet(手鐲) to wear on their wrists. The bracelet was to   43    them not to complain.  44   , after three weeks of not complaining, people said they felt happier. They  45    that the less they complained, the happier their lives became.
Complaining seems to be part of our human nature. Life,  46  , is full of difficulties. It is   47   to feel disappointed, irritated and unhappy at times. The real problem,  48  , comes when we take those negative inner feeelings and   49  them out loud. Somehow, it makes everything   50  . The more we complain, the worse we feel; the worse we feel, the more we complain. And it   51  everyone around us, too. It can become a virus of negativity.
Doctors say that complaining is aslo  52  for your health. They say that people who aren’t complainers are healthier, happier, have more friends and are more successful than people who complain all the time. So,  53   something ticks you off, like a rainy day or a bad meal, try  54  your tongue instead of complaining. It will be your contribution to   55   a world without complaints.

Courage is admitting that you are afraid and facing the fear directly. It’s being strong enough to ask for help and humble enough to accept it.
Courage is standing up for what you believe in without worrying about the opinions of others. It’s following your own heart, living your own life, and settling for nothing less than the best for yourself.
Courage is daring to take the first step, a big leap, or the different path. It’s attempting to do something that no one else has done before and all others think impossible.
Courage is keeping in the face of disappointment and looking at defeat not as an end but as a new beginning. It’s believed that things will ultimately get better even as they get worse.
Courage is               your own actions and admitting your own mistakes without placing blame on others. It’s not relying on others for your success, but on your own skills and efforts.
Courage is refusing to quit even when you are threatened by impossibility. It’s choosing a goal, sticking to it, and finding solutions to the problems.

There is nothing else but economy that occupies the minds of Americans at present times of economic crisis(危機(jī)). The statistics on unemployment,housing costs and consumer confidence keep coming and coming,leaving people not just scared to spend money but also very stressed and emotionally exhausted. This stress has an effect on everything,starting with our sleep,mood,physical health,relationships and eating habits.
“Time of economic stress leads to increase rates of depression(憂郁),”says Dr. Christopher Palmer,director of continuing education at McLean Hospital in Belmont,Massachusetts. “It worsens illness in people who have been constantly depressed.

It was Thanksgiving morning and in the crowded kitchen of my small home I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags(破舊衣服) huddling together inside the storm door on the top step.
"Any old papers, lady? " asked one of them.
I was busy. I wanted to say "no" until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals(涼鞋), wet with heavy snow.
“Come in and I'll make you a cup of hot cocoa.”
They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread with jam to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started again on my household budget.
The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, "Lady, are you rich? "
"Am I rich? no!"
I looked at my shabby slipcovers(舊家具套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer (茶托;淺碟)carefully and said, "Your cups match your saucers." Her voice was hungry with a need that no amount of food could supply. They left after that, holding their bundles of papers against the wind. They hadn't said "Thank you." They didn't need to. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful.
Plain blue china(瓷的) cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.
I tasted the potatoes and stirred the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a good steady job--these matched, too.
I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy prints of small sandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am.
1. Why did the writer let the children in?
A. She showed great pity on them.
B. She wanted to sell old papers.
C. She knew them and wanted to make them a cup of cocoa.
D. She wanted to invite them to her Thanksgiving party.
2. The girl thought the writer was rich perhaps because_________
A. she saw that the lady's room was comfortable
B. she saw the cups matched the saucers
C. the writer's slipcovers were very new
D. the woman had expensive clothes
3.What was the weather probably like when the story happened?
A. cloudy     B. sunny      C. windy      D. snowy
4. From the passage, we can infer that whether you are rich depends on_______
A. how much money you have had    B. how you feel about your life
C. how you have helped others       D. what job you are doing

C

       The words “timetable” and  “schedule” make most final year students want to eat their own vomit(嘔吐物). Unfortunately, the harsh reality is that final year students must develop a timetable. If you don’t have a schedule or plan for studying ,you will have no way of allocating your valuable time when the unexpected arises. A well-thought-out timetable can be a lifesaver . It is up to you to learn how to develop a schedule that meets your needs .Change it if necessary ,but most important ,follow it . All timetables should be made with the idea that they can be changed. A good one will keep you from wandering off course.
A good timetable should make every hour count—every class ,social event and other activity you engage in .You must focus on the other “free time” available and how you will use it .Make a weekly schedule and divided each day into one-hour increments .Indicate times for classes ,socializing ,and work time. Also block off a period for sleeping every day. In the precious hours left over ,plan time for study .This gives you a rough road map of the time available. Of course ,you can change your schedule as circumstances need.
The timetable you develop should guide you in how to distribute the available time in the most productive manner .Sticking to your schedule can be tough ,but don’t dribble away valuable time. Avoiding study is the easiest thing in the world .It is up to you to follow the schedule you’ve prepared .A good deal of your success in high school and with any future study depends on this simple truth.
Remember ,there is a learning curve. You learn the most in the first 30 minutes of study; after that ,it progressively deteriorates(減弱). After four or five hours of studying the same material in the same way, you are learning virtually nothing. The solution is to keep switching subjects and study styles.
64.What is the best title of the passage?
A.Advantages of starting a timetable         B.Keep to it ,and you will succeed
C.Make a schedule ,and follow it             D.Learn to love your timetable
65.What does Paragraph 2 talk about?
A.Tips for making a schedule.                  B.Significance of a scientific timetable.
C.Requirements for making a timetable.    D.Importance of following one’s schedule.
66.The following are characteristics of a good timetable EXCEPT that    .
A.it can be changed                                 B.it is flexible
C.it is of many periods                            D.it can save our time
67.From this passage ,we can learn if we wish to achieve high learning efficiency, we’d better    .
A.shift subjects and use different methods regularly
B.devote to the same material continuously
C.turn to teachers for help if necessary
D.have a break every thirty minutes

The purpose of a letter of application(求職信) is to help you to “sell” yourself. It should state__16___ the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have ___17___. It should be simple, human, personal and brief without ___18___ out any necessary facts.
In writing a letter of application, keep in ___19___ that the things a possible employer is most ___20___ to want to know about are your qualifications(條件), your achievements and your aims. The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part. ___21___ the first few sentences fail to ___22___ the reader’s attention, the rest of the letter may not be __23___ at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or interests of the employer not ___24___ your own need or desires. For example, instead of beginning with “I saw your ___25___ in today’s newspaper,” you might say “I have made a careful ___26___ of your advertising during the past six months” or “I have made a survey in my neighborhood to find out how many housewives ___27___ your product and why they like it. ”
Try to ___28___ generalities. Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now ___29___. College graduates looking for their first positions often ask “What can I ___30___ in a letter? Employers want experience—which, naturally, no ___31___ has.” The answer is that everything you have ever done is ___32___.
It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter. ___33___ a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent ___34___ is to enclose(內(nèi)附) a stamped, self-addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it ___35___ for a possible employer to get in touch with you.
