13、People are always afraid of making mistakes. But sometimes it's not bad to make mistakes, and here is why.
At first, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. It's always good to try new things, because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try new things, how can you improve? How can you create? The simple answer is，“You can't.” Look around you, everything you see is the result of someone trying new things. Another good thing about mistakes is this: when you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this: Edison failed
10,000 times before he invented the light bulb. When he was asked how he felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn't failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn't work.
Finally, when you make a mistake, you are that much closer to success. Why? Because you have said what you should say, and you have done what you should do. Every time you make a mistake, you are closer to success. But it doesn't mean that you can make mistakes without thin-king. Instead, when you try new things you have to think them over, so that you can keep away from some unne-cessary mistakes.
We shouldn't spend all our time and money on the only one way, but use them correctly. Because our time and money are limited (有限的).
There is an old saying, “If you are not making mistakes, you are not trying hard enough.” So go bravely and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And succeed.
1．If you are making a mistake, that means________.
A．you're careful B．you're kind
C．you're growing D．you know nothing
2．If you never try new things, you can't________.
A．improve B．create C．spend D．A and B
3．After Edison failed 10,000 times, he________.
A．gave up
B．invented the light bulb
C．invented the computer
D．invented 10,000 new things
4．When you make a mistake, you are closer to________.
A．time B．money C．success D．everything
5．What's the main idea of the passage?
A．Never make mistakes.
B．Y ou can make mistakes without thinking.
C．Sometimes it's good to make mistakes.
D．Making mistakes is terrible.

14、One Saturday evening，my husband and I went to have dinner at a restaurant. As we sat there eating and sharing conversation，I watched an old woman stop and look around. I looked over at my husband and said，“She must be lost.”
I got up and caught up with her as she walked by our table and touched her lightly on the shoulder. “Ma’am，are you having trouble finding who you are dining with?” I asked.
She said yes. She was there with her daughter. I asked if her daughter was the only person she was there with，and she replied yes. “If you stay right here，I will find her and come back and take you to her—to save you some steps，” I offered. She looked at me and said，“But you don’t know who I am here with.”
She was right. I explained that her daughter should be easy to find，because I thought she would be the only lady sitting by herself in the whole restaurant. She agreed…but just then a young man stopped me and asked，“Is she looking for her seat? They’re sitting at a table right across from us.”
I told him that she was and thanked him. I watched as they walked off together and kept my eyes on the old woman to make sure that she could see her daughter and all was well. I couldn’t help but think that it must not be much diffe rent from being lost as a child.

15、Our class was great. But things turned upside down when Martin Mackenzie arrived. Martin was loud, rude and had a bad temper (脾气).You never knew what might make him angry, so it was best to keep out of his way. On the last day of term, my friend Harley said to me. “Martin’s looking at you.” he said. I was scared, and I didn’t know what to do.
I looked at Martin and tried to smile. Martin didn't smile back…
“You’re in trouble now, Josh,” Harley said. “Martin’s going to do something mean (卑鄙的) to you.” “I haven’t done anything to him,” I said. “Why would he do something mean to me?” “He doesn’t need a reason. It’s just how he is.” I kept away from Martin at lunch time. I smiled as I went to the car park after school. I was safe from Martin for the holidays. But suddenly, a voice called out, “See you on Monday, Josh!” I turned and saw Martin looking at me. “What are you talking about?” I asked. “Didn’t your mum tell you?” Martin said. “I’m staying with you for the next two weeks.”
“Please tell me Martin Mackenzie isn’t coming to stay over the holidays, Mum,” I said, as I got into the car. “Yes, he is,” Mum said. “His mother has to work, and I said I’d help her. Is that a problem?” “Yep, it is. He’s a bully (恃强欺弱者), and everyone is scared of him,” I said. Mum frowned. “I’ve given my word, Josh__You will just have to get along.”
On Monday morning, Martin arrived. “Good morning, Mrs Grey,” he said. “Thank you for allowing me to stay. Good morning, Josh. It’s wonderful to see you again.” This wasn’t the Martin I knew.Wait until we’re alone, I thought. Then his good manners will disappear, and he’ll be horrible (可怕的) again. I was right! As soon as Mum was gone, Martin turned mean. He took over everything, and there was nothing I could do about. It was going to be a lon g two weeks…
I told Mum how horrible Martin was to me. “I’ve just had a talk to Martin’s mum about that,”
she said. “You need to know something.” “What?” I asked. “Martin's dad left.” Mum said. “So his mother moved the family every time she found a better job. Martin used to make new friends, but they always forgot about him when he moved. I think he’s unfriendly from the start, so he won’t be
disappointed (失望的) when he leaves.” I looked at Mum. “1 feel sorry for him,” I said. But he is still horrible. “Wha t can I do?” “Treat him like your best friend --- no matter how he acts,” Mum said.
It was hard work, but I kept at it over the next two weeks. At last, Martin stopped bullying me. That was when I found out he was a nice kid.
Martin’s mum was excited when she came to get him on the last day. “Martin! I’ve decided my new job is perfect, so we won’t have to move again!” Martin smiled. “Now I can keep my friends!” he said. “But, there’s a problem. Everyone’s scared of me.”
“Maybe we can fix that,” I said. Wh en Martin and his mum left. I had a word with Mum. We invited my whole class to a party. Martin was very polite and made lots of new friends that night.

16、Once a traveller came into a village which was suffering from hunger. The villagers asked him to leave, for they feared he wanted them to give him food. They told him that there was no food. The traveller explain ed that he didn’t need any food and that, in fact, he was planning to make a soup to share with them instead. The villagers watched suspiciously as he built a fire and filled a pot with water With great ceremony(仪式), he pulled a stone from a bag, and dropp ed the stone into the pot of water. After a moment, he smelt the soup and shouted with excitement, “How delicious the soup is!” As the villagers began to show interest, he mentioned how good the soup would be with just a little cabbage in it. A villager brought out a cabbage to share. This episode(情节) repeated itself until the soup had cabbage, carrots, onions, and beets—indeed, a full pot of soup that could feed everyone in the village was ready. This story describes when there are not enough resources(资源), humans will store things. We do not want to share. The story of stone soup helps us realize that, in doing so, we often prevent ourselves and everyone else from having a feast(盛宴).The meaning of this story goes far beyond food. We keep to ourselves ideas, love, and energy, thinking we will be richer, but in fact we make the world, and ourselves, poorer. The traveller was able to see that the villagers were holding back, and he had the ability to inspire(激发) them to give. In this way, they created a large meal that none of them could have created alone. Are you like one of the villagers? If you come forward and share your gifts, you will inspire others to do the same. The reward is a feast that can feed many.
1．（小题1）What does the underlined word “suspiciously” most probably mean?
A．doubtfully B．excitedly
C．curiously D．fearfully
2．（小题2）The traveller put a stone into the pot in order to .
A．teach the villagers to cook a soup with stone
B．inspire the villagers to bring out their own food
C．prove to the vi llagers that he didn’t want their food
D．help villagers to survive by giving them some food
3．（小题3）The writer mainly wants to tell us that .
A．storing things in hard times is human nature
B．a good leader is very necessary in hard times
C．skills are needed to inspire people to share with others
D．sharing is more important than keeping things to oneself

18、When the great library of Alexandria was burned, the story goes, one book was saved. It was not a valuable book, and so a poor man bought it for a few copper coins (铜钱). Between its pages there was something very interesting. It was a thin paper on which was written the secret of the touchstone!
The touchstone was a small pebble (卵石) that could turn any common metal into gold. The writing explained that it was among thousands of other pebbles that looked exactly like it. But the secret was this: the real stone would feel warm, while ordinary pebbles were cold.
So the man camped on the seashore and began testing pebbles. He thought that if he picked up ordinary pebbles and put them down again, he might pick up the same pebble hundreds of times. So, when he felt one that was cold, he threw it into the sea.
He spent a whole day doing this but none of them was the touchstone.
The days became weeks and the weeks into months. One day, however, he picked up a pebble and it was warm. He threw it into the sea before he realized what he had done. He had formed such a strong habit of throwing each pebble into the sea. So when the one he wanted came along, he still threw it away.
So it is with opportunity. Unless we are careful, it’s easy to fail to recognize an opportunity when it is at hand. And it’s just as easy to throw it away.
1．The poor man bought the book because ______.
A．it was very cheap B．it was of great value
C．there was a secret in the book D．he wanted to find the touchstone
2．According to the story, the touchstone______.
A．is a big pebble B．feels cold
C．is magic D．is pure gold
3．The man threw pebbles into the sea _____.
A．to test how far he could throw B．to practice throwing pebbles
C．to avoid picking up the same pebble D．to express his disappointment
4．What message does the story want to tell us?
A．Careful habits can lead to success. B．Habits can benefit you but also hold you back.
C．Never judge a person or a thing by appearance. D．Opportunity only visits the ready and watchful mind.

19、Most students believe that the life in school is colorful and interesting. However, there are still some students feeling tired of learning both in cities and countries.
Concerning the problem, the reasons are listed below. To begin with, they dislike the way that their teachers show. Besides, there is a lot of homework to do so they are stressed out. In addition, they feel bored about the courses.
From my point of view, students should be focused on study. As the saying goes “Study hard and you will make
prog ress.”。
