When a man was walking by some elephants, he suddenly stopped He wondered why these huge animals were being held only by a small rope tied to their front legs. No chains, no cages. It was clear that the elephants could break the rope at any time, but for sonic reason, they did not.
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why the animals just stood there and didn't try to get away. "Well," the trainer said, "when they were very young and much smaller, we used the same rope to keep them from running away. At that age, it's enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are
conditioned to believe they cannot break tile rope. They believe it can still hold them, so they never try to break free."
The man was surprised. These animals could break flee whenever they wanted, but because they believed they couldn't, they were stuck right where they were.
How many of us go through life like the elephants-holding onto the belief that we cannot do something simply because we failed at it once before?
Failure is a part of learning. If we failed once, it doesn't mean we can never succeed. If we try again and again, maybe we will succeed one day. So don't be afraid of failure and keep on trying. （1）Why did the elephants never try to break the rope after they grew up?
A. Because they liked being tied.
B. Because they were too weak to break it.
C. Because they didn't want to break it.

4．阅读理解
Two friends and I moved into a house off campus when I was a junior at Iowa State University.
We were all a bit afraid of our landlord, a rude middle aged man who was "all business" when we signed the lease.
He gave us a lecture about paying the rent on time and maintaining the house and appliances. We weren't really supposed to, but during the fall semester, my housemates and I threw a party. We sent invitations to many friends and told everyone that we knew to come to our house on Friday night. We drew a large crowd and everyone had a great time. The last guests left in the wee hours of the morning.
Exhausted, we decided to sleep in and clean the house and yard the next morning. Well, you
We were awakened about 7:00 a.m. by our landlord, who was knocking on the door. Sheepishly, we let him in, expecting to incur his wrath. Instead, he picked up a party invitation that had been laying on the sidewalk and asked, "Why didn't you girls invite me?"
He came into the house, made a minor repair, and spent a few minutes helping us pick up trash from the yard. We weren't quite sure what to make of our unexpected luck.
I figured that he viewed my housemates and I as irresponsible after the party incident and this would prove him right. But I was wrong. He said, "I have a daughter about your age, and the same thing happened to her once. He also taught me an important lesson about not judging a book by its cover.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者在大三时和朋友在校外租房住，遇到了一个看起来粗鲁的中年男房东，有点害怕他。

因为和朋友们一起办了一个聚会，意外认识到这位房东其实是一个非常友善的的人。

（1）细节理解题。

有文章第一段“We were all a bit afraid of our landlord, a rude middle aged man who was "all business"when we signed the lease”，可知作者有点怕房东，是应为他看起来粗鲁而且签租约的时候很“商人”,故选B。

（2）词义推测题。

结合前文可知，作者和她的朋友有点怕这个粗鲁的房东，而她们因为聚会把屋子和院子弄得一团糟，肯定会受到这个房东的责备，C.“be scolded”表受到责备，符合题意;A.“get stressed out”感到焦虑，和“ecpecting to”搭配意思不符；B.“get angry”发怒，本句主语不是房东，不符：D."be prised"被表扬，语意不符，故选C。

（3）细节理解结题。

由文章第四段“ Instead, he picked up a party invitation that had been laying on the sidewalk and asked, "Why didn't you girls invite me?"可知房东进来后并没有责备她们，反而问她们：为什么不邀请他。

故选A。

（4）综和理解题。

由文章大意知，这位房东并不是像作者看起来的那样粗鲁严厉，而是很友善。

排除法可知C对。

故选C。

（5）主旨大意题。

由文章最后一段“He also taught me an important lesson about not judging a book by its cover”可知房东让她们学到重要的一课：不能以貌取人，“N ever judge from appearances”，A正确；B.“A friend without faults will never be found. ”无缺点的朋友难觅”；
C."Accidents will happen.‘’总会有意外发生；
D.“A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit”吃一堑，长一智。

故选A。

5．阅读理解
Chip was in the first grade when I arrived at his school as a counselor(辅导员). It was shocking to me that he was described as an angry, uncontrollable and evil(道德败坏的)boy. How could such a little boy, after being in school only one year, be considered "evil"?Over the next several months, I came to know Chip well enough to see that he was neither evil nor uncontrollable.
But, one day, Chip threw a chair at his teacher and was sent to my office. I asked him what
made him do this. He replied that his teacher hated him. He felt there was no way to ever get her to like him. I asked him if he would tell his teacher this. He nodded, and we called her into my office.
When the teacher came, . He then said that he knew he was a very, very bad boy, and he didn't think anyone could ever like him. His teacher listened to him with heartfelt compassion. Then she gave him a big warm hug, telling him she didn't hate him at all and, actually, she cared very much about him. Only sometimes Chip's behaviour really scared her. It was clear to both Chip and me that she really meant it.
I put my left arm on his shoulders and the right hand on his heart. I told him how wonderful and lovely I saw him to be. I praised how special and brave he was to express his hurt feelings.
As I was speaking to him, his whole body came to rest on my right hand next to his heart. It was a moment in time unlike anything I had experienced before. From then on, I'm pleased to see his behaviour improved through the rest of school years.
A child's mind is clear and sensitive(敏感的). He receives whatever others say without protection. It is as easy to consider someone hopeless as it is to consider him able in his own special way.
（1）The first paragraph mainly tells us .
A. Chip was very popular at school
B. the teacher didn't care about Chip at all
C. Chip had no way to get others to like him

C. Chip became angry and crazy again
D. I encouraged Chip to express his feelings
（3）The underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 shows that Chip .

C. was quite afraid
D. felt a little nervous （4）What can we learn from the passage?
A. No pains, no gains.

【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文讲述了作者在学校里面对一个被所有人看成“恶魔”的孩子,并没有放弃她,反而安慰鼓励她,结果她真的像作者期盼的那样,变得更好了的事情。

（1）细节理解题。

根据第一段第二句It was shocking to me that he wasdescribed as an angry,
uncontrollable and evilboy和Over the next several months, I came to know Chip well enough to see that he was neither evil nor uncontrollable.可知作者与别人相比对Chip有不同的看法。

故选D。

（2）信息匹配题。

根据下文He then said that he knew he was a very, very bad boy, and he didn't think anyone could ever like him.可知是在作者鼓励下Chip才会说下文自己的想法，故选D。

（3）推断理解题。

根据第五段最后句From then on, I'm pleased to see his behavior improved through the rest of school years可知，自从作者对Chip说了一番话后，他的行为变得越来越好，因此当时他将身体靠在作者的右手上表达的应是对作者从内心的接受，可知Chip已经接受作者的建议，故选A。

（4）主旨题大意题。

文章讲述了作者在学校里面对一个被所有人看成“恶魔”的孩子，并没有放弃他反而安慰鼓励他，结果他真的像作者期盼的那样，变得更好了。

结合文章最后一句话结合最后一段最一句It is as easy to consider someone hopeless as it it toconsider him able in his own special way可得出文章主旨，即态度决定事情的结局。

当你对人或事有高的期望时，结果往往会变得更好。

故选C。
