Well, at least he died,”everyonewas thinking.One by one the employees got closer. And when they looked inside it, they suddenly became silent. They stood there and couldn’t say a word, as if some one had touchedthe deepest part of their hearts. There was a mirror inside the coffin: everyonewho looked inside it could see himself or herself.There was also a sign next to the mirror that said: “There is only one person whocan set limits to your gro wth: it is YOU.” You are the only person that can changeyour life.

It sounds strange to me at first because throughout my childhood, I have always been taught to try everything possible to win an upper-hand, rather than to help other people win. However, as time goes by, I have gradually understood the essence (真谛) of WIN-WIN principle—it is the way of winning on both sides.When I was little, I used to play Chinese checkers (跳棋) which includes two basic tactics (战术): One is to create paths for yourself; the other is to prevent your rival﹙对手﹚ moving. Players may use these two totally different ways in the game, but the key for the player to win is to continuously create paths for him even if his rival may take advantage of it. Finally he can always reach the goal a few steps ahead of the other player.In the 1990s, a strategy﹙战略﹚ called WIN-WIN became widespread in the western world. Its aim is to achieve your success while giving other people some advantages, so there is no real loser. One example of using the WIN-WIN principle is the voluntary system in the US. Most Americans support the spirit of voluntary contribution. In the US, schools and children organizations usually encourage and support kids to take part in community activities so that the voluntary spirit can be enrooted in their minds from childhood.In China, it’s quite usual that some people are too selfish and never take people’s interests into consideration, while someone who really has courage to dosomething for the public is often called “foolish” or “s illy”. Actually helping other people can be of great delight for the helper, for he can also learn something useful for his life such as sympathy, care, devotion, etc. So only if you take other people’s interests into consideration , you can make sure to win what you want.61. Where can we often hear the principle called WIN-WIN.?A. In ChinaB. In JapanC. all over the worldD. In the USA62. What is the author’s attitude(态度) towards WIN-WIN?A. Criticism（批评）.B. Encouragement.C. Disagreement.D. Doubt.63. The underlined word “enrooted” in the third paragraph means ____.A. removedB. controlledC. plantedD. influenced64. What is the meaning of WIN-WIN?A. To winning an upper hand.B. To beat your rival completely (完全地)C. To win on both sidesD. To achieve your success without giving others any chances65. The purpose of the author in writing the passage is _______.A. to tell us the cultural differences between China and the US.B. to tell us the different educational systems in the US and China.C. to tell us the importance and meaning of WIN-WIN.D. to show that WIN-WIN is popular in the US and China.第II卷（非选择题，共60分）五、任务型阅读A. 阅读短文，完成表格，每空一词.（共10小题，每题1分，计10分）Learning can take place in a classroom, in a meeting room, or even on a ship. Life experiences offer the students some of the best education on the earth. Of those life experiences, travel offers the best returns(回报).For international travelers, the lessons are the greatest. Taking that firststep to cross the ocean by plane or boat is a risk. It teaches people to see more and people can go beyond one land, one country, and one set way of thinking and doing things.International travel opens up the mind with different cultures. Travelers see how different people do things in different lands. While this experience is exciting for adults, children get the greatest insights(洞察力) during the international exploration. It will help to form their understanding from a very young age. It will help them understand that differences among people and cultures can be quite exciting and wonderful in its own way. Fashion, art, science, transportation, religion（宗教）, geography, geology（地质学） and social studies are all areas of learning outside of the books when traveling abroad. There is no other way that can teach so much information in such a short time.You can learn more from travel than from any other educational experience. If you take no notice of everything you see, then surely you will learn nothing at all. But, if you are curious enough to look for new experiences through travel, you can learn more from travel than from any course in any university on the earth!B.阅读表达：阅读下列短文，根据短文内容回答下列各题.（共5小题,每小题2分，10 分）Every year on my birthday since I was 11, a white gardenia (栀子花) was sent to my house.
