Besides, there are not enough suitable materials for them to read.In my opinion, we are supposed to spend more time in reading. We need to practice reading every day. As for teachers, I hope, they can give us less homework. What's more, they had better teach us how to read and provide more suitable materials for us.。

When we feel happy, we can work or study better. Besides, it is helpful for us to keep healthy. Generally speaking, happy people are strong, and seldom have mental illnesses.There are many reasons for a bad mood, such as personal character, the environment, terrible experiences and so on. In my opinion, one’s character is the most important one of all because usually negative attitudes lead to a bad mood.How can we turn a bad mood into a good one? First, we should be more optimistic. Second, when we have sufferings, we must always keep in mind that confidence is the key to overcoming difficulty.2011—2012学年第二学期期中联考高一英语试卷作文评分标准1. 本题总分为25分,按5个档次给分。

South Korea is now the world's largest market for plastic surgery.In order to change their looks, 20 percent of women between the ages of 19 and 49 in Seoul, the country's capital city, admitted they had gone under the knife.It is believed that the rise of South Korea's pop music industry is behind the popularity, and many patients visit clinics with photos of famous stars. asking surgeons to emulate (复制) their noses or eyes.One of the country's largest clinics, JK Plastic Surgery Center, founded by Joo Kwon, recently opened a hotel to better serve customers, who spend an average of $17,675 during a single visit.An increasing amount of clients are non-Koreans, from China, Japan, the Middle East and evenAfrica, and ministers believe medical tourism will help the Korean economy.However, Mr.Kwon warned that young people should be cautious when seeking such operations. “I think South Korea has a very narrow definition of beauty because we look pretty much the same.

Rapid growth of plastic surgery in South Korea.BComfort zone is the mental place surrounded by borders in our mind where we feel secure. Even though this comfort area and its boundaries are just a state of mind that has nothing to do with reality, it plays a huge role in the progress of our development. Since the comfort zone is limited, there is not much benefit for you inside your comfort zone. Nothing new will happen until you open yourself and leave your comfort zone.As long as you still having the same beliefs, you cannot grow and expect new things in your life. When you change your beliefs, you will change your thoughts, feelings and actions, and only then you can expend and grow in all aspects in your life.Even though your background may be affecting your present situation, what really matters is not where you were born, your skin color, race, age, gender, religion, government, or even the poor environment in which you have been living for so many years, but what really matters and makes a big difference in your life is your attitude, to understand your comfort zone, how you limit yourself within it, who you are, why you behave the way you do it, and mainly where you are going.Sadly many people don't go anywhere because they stay within their comfort zone. They accept defeat after defeat before even trying or knowing how capable or valuable they really are. These circumstances are not the cause of our actual situation but the conformism (因循守旧) and the poverty of our thoughts and therefore the weakness of our broken spirit. Leave your past behind; constantly transcend (超越)your comfort zone! Your past within this comfort zone is nothing but a wasted load that you don't need to carry at all.Take constant action as many times as it is required and never, never quit. As Napoleon Hill said, “A quitter never wins and a winn er never quits. Defeat is never a failure; no circumstance ever is failure until it is accepted by the individual as a failure.” Nothing is impossible for an optimist attitude; everything is possible when we start blindly trusting ourselves, when we have a burning desire to succeed and a blind determination to make our dreams come true; everything is possible when we don't take a no for an answer.25. What is comfort zone according to the passage?A.A place in our realistic life where we obtain comfort.B.A mental place in our mind where we stick to our beliefs.C.A limited place in our mind where we feel safe.D.A secret place in our mind where we communicate with ourselves.26. The author believes staying in our comfort zone can________.A. prevent us from being aware of the realityB. protect us from the cruel realityC. push our development in lifeD. stop us making progress in life27. Napoleon Hill is quoted (引用) in the last paragraph to show that________.A.one should not quit in order to succeedB. there is a great difference between defeat and failureC.it is important to take constant actionsD. a successful person can't leave his comfort zone28.What is NOT necessary for us to succeed?A.A blind determination.B. Refusing to have a no for an answerC. An optimistic attitude.D. The poor environment in which we live.29.The writing style of this passage can be described as________.A. defensive(防守的)B. persuasive(有说服力的)C. subjective(主观的)D. supportive(支持的)CI was sitting in a taxi, wondering if I had overdressed for the evening, when I looked out of the window and saw Mother rooting through(翻找) a dustbin. It was just after dark in March. People hurried along the sidewalks with their collars turned up. I was stuck in traffic two blocks from the party where I was heading.Mother stood fifteen feet away. She had tied rags around her shoulders to keep out the spring cold and was rooting through the dustbin. Her gestures were all familiar ——the way she tilted(倾斜) her head when studying items of potential value, the way her eyes widened with childish joy when she found something she liked. She probably looked like any of the thousands' of homeless people in New York City. But still she reminded me of the mother. She'd been painting in the desert and reading Shakespeare aloud.It had been months since I laid eyes on Mom, and when she looked up, I was overcome with panic that she would see me and call out my name, and that someone on the way to the same party would see us together and that my secret would be out.I slid down in the seat and asked the driver to turn around and take me home.The taxi stopped in front of my building, the doorman held the door for me, and the elevator man took me up to my floor. The apartment was silent except for the click of my heels on the polished wood floor. I still panicked for seeing Mother rooting happily through the dustbin. I put some Vivaldi on, hoping the music would settle me down.I looked around the room. There were bronze-and-silver vases and books with worn leather spines(书脊). There were the Georgian maps I'd had framed and overstuffed(有厚软垫的) leather armchair I liked to sink into. I'd tried to turn the apartment into the sort of place where the person I wanted to be would live. But I could never enjoy it without worrying about my parents on a sidewalk or somewhere else. I was ashamed of myself for wearing pearls and living on Park Avenue while they were busy keeping warm and finding something to eat.What could I do? I'd tried to help them countless times, but Father would insist they didn't need anything, and Mother would ask for something silly, like a perfume atomizer(喷雾器) . They said that they were living the way they wanted to.After sliding down in the taxi, I hated myself——hated my clothes and my apartment. I had to do something, so I called a friend of Mother's and left a message. It was our system of staying in touch. We met for lunch at a restaurant.Mother was sitting at a booth, studying the menu when I arrived. She waved heartily when she saw me. "It's my baby girl!" she called out.We ordered.She started talking about Picasso. She'd seen a retrospective(回顾展) of hiswork.“I'm worried about you,”I said. “Tell me what I can do to help.”Her smile faded. “What makes you think I need your help?”“ Mother, I'm not rich. But I want to do whatever could help you change your life and make it better.”“Help me change my life? I'm fine. You're the one who needs help. Your values are all confused.”"Mother, I saw you rooting through trash in the East Village.""Well, people in this country are too wasteful. It's my way of recycling." She took a bite of her food. "Why didn't you say hello?""I was too ashamed, Mother. ”"You see?" Mother pointed her chopsticks at me. "That's exactly what I'm saying. You're too easily embarrassed. Your father and I are who we are. Accept it.""And what am I supposed to tell people about my parents?"“Just tell the truth," Mom said. "That's simple enough.”30.When the author saw her mother,A. it was a cold day in winterB. she was driving her car to a partyC. it had been days since they last metD. she was stuck in traffic in the East Village31.
