It was a cold afternoon in winter. My oldest son, Stephen, was at school, and Reed, my husband, at work. My 35 little ones were sitting around the kitchen table. Tom was perfecting a paper plane, while Sam was 36 on an oil painting.
But Laura, our only daughter, sat quietly and was 37 in her project. Every once in a while she would ask how to 38 the name of someone in our family, then carefully form the letters one by one. Next, she would add flowers with small items. She finished off each with a sun in the upper right hand corner. Holding them at eye level, she let out a long sigh (叹息) of 39 .
“What are you doing, Honey?” I asked. She looked quickly at her brother before looking back at me. “It’s a 40 .” sh e said, covering up her work with her hands.
Next, she put her work into a box. When she had finished, she disappeared up the stairs.
It wasn’t until later that evening that I 41 a “mailbox” taped onto the doors to each of our bedrooms. There were li ttle notes saying that she loved all of us. She hadn’t 42 Sam or baby Paul. They are pages of colored scenes including flowers with happy faces. “He can’t read yet,” she whispered (低声说), “43 he can look at the pictures.” Each time I received one of my little girl’s gifts, it 44 my heart. I was touched at how carefully she paid attention to what wrong happened to us. When Stephen lost a baseball game, there was a letter telling him she thought he was the best ballplayer in the whole world. After I had a 45 day, there was a message thanking me for my efforts.
This same little girl is grown now, driving off every day to the state college, but some things about her have 46 changed. Yesterday I found a love note next to my bedside. “Thanks for always being there for me, Mom,” it
read, “I’m glad that we’re the best friends.”
There are angels among us. I know I live with one.

Hip hop or rap (说唱) music started on the street and in the clubs of the New York City in the 1970s. People rap to express how they feel about their lives and problems.
Rapping in class.
Would you like to rap in class? Well, actually hip pop music is played in more than 10,000 schools in the USA. Why? There is a new school program called “Flocabulary” in which teachers use texts and hip hop CDs to help teach different school subjects. The words of the songs are just what students are studying. This makes learning easy and fun. Students and teachers are excited about the good results it has had on exam marks. Mr. Lee, a teacher in a high school, said, “I’ve used hip hop songs i n class, and I have never seen my students so crazy about history! You can’t imagine how well they remember what I teach! We even try to write our own songs.”
Whose idea was Flocabulary?

When something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, it’s so-and-so’s mistake.” or “I know I’m late, but it’s not my fault; the car broke down.” It is probably not your mistake, but once you form the habit of blaming (指责) somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.
Winners are great at solving problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague (同事) causes you problems on the job for being short of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t d epend on the person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your c olleague fails to do his job well.
This is what being a winner is all about – creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and chances to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose mistake it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success.
【小题1】What does the underlined word “remedy” probably mean?
A. Avoid.
B. Accept.
C. Improve.
D. Consider.
【小题2】When yo ur colleague brings about a problem, you should ______.
A. blame him for his being short of responsibility
B. find a better way to deal with the problem
C. tell him to find the cause of the problem
D. ask a more able colleague for help
【小题3】What can be the best title for the passage?
A. A Winner’s Secret.
B. A Winner’s Chance.
C. A Winner’s Problem.
D. A Winner’s Progress.
D
I needed to buy a camera, one that was simply good at taking good snaps (快照). So I went on the net, spent
15 minutes reading product reviews on good web sites, wrote down the names of three top recommendations (推荐) and headed for my nearest big camera store. There in the cupboard was one of the cameras on my list. And it was on special offer. Oh joy. I pointed at it and a sked a salesgirl, “Can I have one of those?” “Do you want to try it first?" she said. It didn’t quite sound like a question. “Do I need to?” I replied. “There’s nothing wrong with it?” “No, no. But you should try it,” she said encouragingly. “Compare it with the others.”
I looked across at the others: shelves of similar cameras placed along the wall, offering different prices. With so many models to choose from, it seemed that I would have to spend hours weighing X against Y, always trying to consider Z and possibly H at the same time. But when I had finished, I would still have only the same two certainties that I had entered the store with: first, soon after I carried my new camera out of the shop, it would be worth half what I paid for it; and second, my wonderful camera would very quickly be replaced by a new model.
But something in the human soul whispers that you can beat these traps (陷阱) by making the right choice. In the end, I agreed to try the model I had chosen. The salesgirl seemed a kind girl. So I let her take out my chosen camera from the cupboard, show how it took excellent pictures of my fellow shoppers... and when she started to introduce the special features, I cut in to ask whether I needed to buy a carry-case and a memory card as well.
Why do we think that new choices still offer us anything new? Perhaps it is because they offer a chance to avoid facing the fact that our real choices in this culture are far more limited than we would like to imagine.
【小题1】The salesgirl insisted that the writer should ______.
A. try the camera to see if there was anything wrong with it
B. compare the cam era he had chosen with the others
C. get more information about different companies
D. trust her and stop asking questions
【小题2】What does t he writer mean by “it would be worth half what I paid for it”?
A. The camera was not good.
B. He shoul d get a lower price.
C. The camera would soon fall in value.
D. The price of the camera was too high.
【小题3】The writer decided to try the model he had chosen because he ______.
A. knew very little about it
B. didn’t trust the salesgirl any more
C. wanted to make sure he chose the best one
D. wanted to take pictures of his fellow shoppers
【小题4】It can be inferred from the passage that in the writer’s opinion, ______.
A. salespersons are not always very kind
B. people waste too much money on cameras
C. cameras have become an important part of our daily life
D. we don’t actually need so many choices when buying a product

八、阅读与表达（共10分，每小题2分）
阅读短文，根据其内容回答问题。

Researchers have found that ther e are some basic things that you can do to become happier.
◆Self
Yourself includes your education, your health, and your sense of purpose. It is important to take care of yourself and to connect the people around you. First, find a hobby. This gives you a chance to meet people with similar interests. You can also volunteer. V olunteering takes the focus off your own problems and makes you feel grateful for what you have.
◆Home
Create a quieter, dark area where you can sit and relax. Paint your living room yellow – it can increase energy and improve mood (情绪). It also helps to own a pet. Pets can make their owners feel calm, and provide love and friendship.
◆Financial (财务的) life
According to Ed Diener, the key to greater well-being is to have money, but not to want it too much. Try to spend money on things that give you long-lasting pleasure. Buy things that will enrich your life, such as music lessons and dinners with friends and family.
◆Social life
Have friends that encourage you to eat right, to be active, to laugh, and to do your best. Meet with your friends regularly and share with them when you have more of something than you need. Support each other in difficult times.
◆Workplace
Your office should be a place that you like. Find a job with people that you enjoy being around. That includes your boss. And do something that you feel strongly about. That is more important than money.
◆Community
If possible, live near people who have about the same amount of money as you. This makes you less aware
(意识到的) of what you don’t have. Live in a neighborhood where you feel safe and where you can walk a lot. Walking makes you healthier, and healthier people are happier people.
【小题1】What does yourself include according to the passage?
【小题2】How can we increase our energy and improve mood?
【小题3】What is the key to greater well-being, according to Ed Diener?
【小题4】Why should we live near people as rich as ourselves?
