It was a strange place. Martin and Tom wished that they had not accepted Jack‟s dare. They liked camping, but not near this swamp.“So,” Martin asked as they sat watching the hot coals. “How did this place get its name?”“Are you sure you want to hear it? It‟s a scary story,” warned Jack.“Of course!” cried out Tom. “If there were anything to be scared of, you wouldn‟t have chosen this place!”“Ok, but don‟t say I didn‟t warn you,” said Jack, and he began this tale.“Way back in time, a man called Dennis tried to start a farm here. He built that cottage over there to live in. In those days, the area looked quite different —it was covered with tall trees and the swamp was a crystal-clear river. After three hard years, Dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops. He was so proud of his success that he refused to listen to advice.”“…You are clearing too much land,‟ warned one old man. …The land is a living thing. It will hit back at you if you abuse it.‟”“…Silly fool,‟ said Dennis to himself. …If I clear more land, I can grow more crops. I‟ll become wealthier. He‟s just jealous!‟”“Dennis continued to chop down trees. Small animals that relied on them for food and shelter were destroyed. He was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door. He did not notice salt seeping to the surface of the land. He did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.”“What happened?” Martin aske d. It was growing colder. He trembled, twisting his body closer to the fire.“The land hit back —just as the old man warned,” Jack shrugged. “Dennis disappeared. Old folks around here believe that swamp plants moved up from the river and dragged him underwater. His body was never found.”“What a stupid story,” laughed Tom. “Plants can‟t …” Before he had finished speaking, he screamed and fainted (晕倒). The other two boys jumped up with fright staring at Tom. Suddenly, they burst out laughing. Some green swamp ivy (常春藤) had covered Tom‟s face. It was a while before Tom could appreciate the joke.36. The underlined word “dare” in Paragraph 1 is closed in meaning to ________.A. courageB. assistanceC. instructionD. challenge37. Why did Jack tell Tom and Martin the story?A. To frighten them.B.

The old man was foolish.C. He was too busy to listen to others.D. He was greedy for more crops.39. Why did Tom scream and faint?A. He saw Dennis‟s shadow.B. He was scared by a plant.C. His friends played a joke on him.D. The weather became extremely cold.40. What lesson can we learn from the story of Dennis?A. Grasp all, lose all.B. No sweat, no sweet.C. It is no use crying over spilt milk.D. He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.BA typical lion tamer（驯兽师）in people‟s mind is an entertainer holding a whip(鞭) and a chair. The whip gets all of the attention, but it‟s mostly for show. In reality, it‟s the chair that does the important work. When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion‟s face, the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time. With its focus divided, the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options, the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g. lose weight, start a business, travel more)—only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best, the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information. The end result is that we feel like we can‟t focus or that we‟re focused on the wrong things, and so we take less action, make less progress, and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn‟t have to be that way. Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face, remember this: All you need to do is focus on one thing. You just need to get started. Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people. If you have somewhere you want to go, something you want to accomplish, someone you want to become…take immediate action. If you‟re clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.41. Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A. To trick the lion.B. To show off his skills.C. To get ready for a fight.D. To entertain the audience.42. In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A. They feel puzzled over choices.B. They hold on to the wrong things.C. They find it hard to make changes.D. They have to do something for show43. What is the author‟s attitude towards the expert s mentioned in Paragraph3?A. Tolerant.B. Doubtful.C. Respectful.D. Supportive.44. When the world is “waving a chair in your face”, you‟re advised to _______.A. wait for a better chanceB. break your old habitsC. make a quick decisionD. ask for clear guidance四．改错My father and I stayed at the South Lake Hotel for a week when we visit Beijing last month. It is in the downtown area, but it is easy to go to anywhere from the hotel by public transport. We lived in a comfortably double-room with a big bath.
