In one way of thinking，failure is a part of life．In another way，failure may be a way towards success．The “spider-story〞 is often told．Robert Bruce，the leader of the Scots in the 13th century was hiding in a cave from the English．He watched a spider spinning a web．The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock．He tried six times to span〔跨过〕the gap．On the seventh time he made it and went on to spin his web．Bruce is said to have taken heart and to have gone to defeat the English．Edison，the inventor of the light bulb〔灯泡〕，made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one．Once he was asked why he kept on trying to make a new type of battery when he had failed so often，he replied，“Failure？I have no failure．Now I know 50，000 ways it won't work．
So what？First，always think about your failure．What caused it？Were conditions right？Were you in top form？What can you change so things will go right next time？
Second，is the goal you're trying to reach the right one？Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be．Think about this question．“If I do succeed in this，where will it get me？
This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn't be doing anyway．
The third thing to bear in mind about failure is that it's a part of life．Learn to live with yourself，even though you maybe have failed．56．This passage deals with ____ ．
A．education B．two sides of failure C．the“spider-story D．the invention of the light bulb 57．In the first paragraph the writer tells mainly about ____．A．the value of failure B．how people fail
C．famous failures D．how not to fail 58．The thing the writer does NOT tell you to do to deal with failure is to ____．

B．think about failure as part of your life
C．think about failure to find out what went wrong
D．never think about it again

My topic is Fashion(时装), and to make my talk more lively, I have brought along five objects. Fashion is important to all of us. Now we are all wearing school uniforms. When we go home, what do we do? We change into other clothes. If we are going out, we like to wear fashionable clothes. If we are going out, we like to wear fashionable clothes. So my first object is this blouse. It looks b eautiful, doesn’t it? It is my most expensive piece of clothing, and I love it. It cost over $600. You may say that it is too expensive, but luckily I can afford it. The more you spend, the better quality. So, you see, fashion is quite important to me, I admit it.
However, I’m not as fond of fashion as my elder brother. Last summer, my parents took us both to London. They wanted to show us some famous sights. But my brother Gary was not interested in the old buildings. He just wanted to spend all his time in the big market, searching for the
coolest pair of trousers! For him, fashion was more important than culture. These are the trousers he bought. Were they worth the expenses of a trip to London to buy these? I don’t think so. I think it was a waste of time and money.
We must, however, remember that changes in fashion can create or lose jobs. As an example, I have brought this blonde wig (假发)to show you. Do you like it? It belongs to one of my mother’s friends. She told me that in the 1960s, it was fashionable for western women to wear wigs. But a few years later fashions changed and women wore wigs much less often. Then the wig factories closed down and hundreds of workers lost their jobs.
60. What is the author doing at the moment? The author is ___.
A. selling some fashionable clothes.
B. buying the coolest school uniforms
C. making a speech to the audience
D. traveling to London
61. In the author’s opinion, fashion ___.
A. is sometimes valuable for all of us
B. is a waste of time and money
C. is not good for the students
D. can cause many workers to lose their jobs.
62. According to the author, ___.
A.The more money you spent, the worse the clothes would be.
B.The lower the price is , the better the goods are.
C.The less money you pay, the better clothes you get
D.Something that has a higher price may has a better quality.
63. What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?
A.Wigs were always popular in the past.
B.People in the east once like wearing blonde wigs.
C.Fashion is actually a business.
D.Business often depends on the production of wigs.
C
About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier, only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!
There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man can not see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green—a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of ver y small things called “cones〞. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between
colors. There are also millions of “rods〞 but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but no color.
Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes〔蚊子〕like blue but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible〔看不见的〕colors around.
64. According to the passage, with the help of the “cones〞, we
can________.
A. tell orange from yellow
B. see in weak light
C. kill mosquitoes
D. tell different shapes
65. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?
A. Women are more careful.
B. There are fewer color-blind women.
C. Women are fonder of driving than men.
D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.
66. We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a_____.
A. red light
B. yellow light
C. blue light
D. green light D
If you ask some people, “How did you learn English so well?〞 you may get a surprising answer: “In my sleep!〞
These are people who have taken part in one of the recent experiments to test the “Learn while you sleep〞 method, which is now being tried in several countries, and with several subjects. English is among them.
Scientists say that this sleep study method greatly speeds language learning. They say that the ordinary person can learn two or three times as much during sleep as in the same period during the day---and this does not affect (影响) his rest in any way. However, sleep teaching will only put into your head what you have studied already while you are awake.
In one experiment, ten lessons were broadcast over the radio for two weeks. Each lesson lasted twelve hours — from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. The first three hours of English grammar and vocabulary were given with the students awake. At 11 p.m. a lullaby (催眠曲) was broadcast to send the student to sleep and for the next three hours the radio in a soft and low voice broadcast the lesson again into his sleeping ears. At 2 a.m. a sharp noise was sent over the radio to wake the sleeping student up for a few minutes to go over the lesson. The soft music sent him back
to rest again while the radio went on. At 5 o’clock his sleep ended and he had to go through the lesson again for three hours before breakfast.
67. By the “Learn while you sleep〞 method, one____ .
A. starts to learn a new lesson in sleep
B. learns how to sleep better
C. is made to remember his lesson in sleep
D. can listen to the radio broadcast while lying in bed
68. In the experiment, lessons were given____ .
A. in the night time
B. after lullabies were broadcast
C. while the student was awake
D. all through the twelve hours
69. Before each lesson finishes, the student has to____ .
A. get up and take breakfast
B. be woken up by a loud voice
C. listen to the lesson again in sleep
D. review (复习) the lesson by himself
70. The sleep study method is being tried in many countries to teach____ .
A. the English language
B. grammar and vocabulary
C. a number of subjects
D. foreign languages 第二卷(总分值45分)

My opinions about surfing the Internet
It is said that surfing the Internet is more and more popular with teenagers, which makes their parents and teachers worried a lot. In my opinion, surfing the Internet has its advantages and disadvantages.
On one hand, the Internet is one source of information. For example, if we want to look for information about world history, we can get on-line, and within a few seconds, we can get what you want. Also, the Internet is of great use in helping us study our subjects. Many of my schoolmates have improved their studies by studying on the Internet.
On the other hand, surfing the Internet can be a waste of time for us students, especially when we are addicted to chatting or playing computer games. What is worse, something on the net misleads us young people.
In a word, as a student, we should take its advantages.。
