Recognizing our personal strengths and weaknesses is useful because if we know ourselves better, we can feel more self-confident. We can be more objective, instead of being blind. The seventh way is to profit from failures and disappointments as learning experiences. If we allow ourselves to get discouraged and sad when we fail, then we will feel more unsure of ourselves. But if we think of a failure as a learning experience, we are adopting a positive attitude. By analyzing objectively why we failed and planning how to set about doing things differently we will be more likely to succeed next time.2) Modest y is used to describe a reserved appraisal of one’s merits, abilities or success, e.g. she is very modest about her accomplishments. Shyness is used to describe the uncomfortable feeling one has in the company of others. It often implies a lack of self-confidence and a timid, reserved manner. Modesty is a good personality trait while shyness in many cases is undesirable.3) Yes, it is appropriate and normal to be shy in some circumstances: in the presence of teachers, your boss, your parents’ friends or you r prospective in-laws; when you are dating someone, especially the first time; when you are with strangers; when you are in a new environment; when you’re facing a large audience.V ocabulary1.

But Parrot told his wife to bring out all the hard and sharp, not the soft, things instead.16) His shell was broken into hundreds of pieces.2. Ekwefi is telling a story about Tortoise. Long long ago, there was a famine, and the birds got an invitation from the sky to attend a feast there. Tortoise learned about it and with his sweet tongue he persuaded the birds to take him with them and so each bird lent him a feather.103fTortoise cunningly thought of an idea that enabled him to have all the food by naming himself ―All of you.‖ When they reached the sky, they received a warm welcome and soon the food was presented to them. Then he asked one of the people in the sk y: ―For whom have you prepared all this feast?‖ The man replied: ―For all of you.‖ So he ate almost all the best food. The birds became very angry and took back their feathers before flying home. Without feathers, he had to jump onto the ground and his shell was broken into pieces.3. Acting out the StorySampleBird A: How exciting! All of us are invited to the feast in the sky.Bird B: I just can’t wait. What do you think I should wear?Tortoise: Hello. Good morning. What are you excited about?Bird A: Di dn’t you know that we are going to the sky?Bird B: And we are going to have a big dinner. What fun!Tortoise: How nice it is. What lucky guys. May I go with you?I’m sure we’ll have a lot of fun. Bird A: Yes, we’ll have great fun, but not you. We know you too well. You are full of cunning and you are ungrateful.Bird B: If we allow you to come with us, you will soon begin your mischief.Bird A: We know you of old.Tortoise: You don’t know me now. I’m a changed man. I am not the mischievous man you once knew. In fact, I am thoughtful and well-meaning. I have learned that a man who makes trouble for others is also making trouble for himself. Rest assured, I promise you I will not cause you any trouble.Bird A: (Talking to Bird B) Maybe he is a changed man now. Let’s talk to our bird friends and see if we will take him with us.(After a brief discussion with all the other birds)Bird B: Ok. Tortoise, now we all agreed to take you to the sky. Each of us will lend you a feather so that you can have two wings to fly.(During the flight to the party)Bird A: Tortoise is a great orator!Bird B: Let’s make him t he spokesperson for the party.Tortoise: Did you know that we need a new name when we are invited to a great feast like this? It is an age-old custom and our hosts in the sky will expect us to honor it.Bird A: We haven’t heard of this before. But as you a re such a learned man, if you say this, we will choose a new name for ourselves. I will call myself Good-Looking.Bird B: I am Smart-Ass.Tortoise: And my new name is All of You.(On their arrival at the sky)Sky people: Welcome to the sky, our dear bird friends. Weare so pleased to see you again. Please make yourselves at home.Tortoise: My dear respected friends, thank you so much for inviting us to the sky. Nothing can make us happier than this. It is our greatest honor to be here and have a good time with you.Sky people: Thank you for your nice words. Now please help yourselves to the nuts.Bird A: Tortoise is really eloquent, isn’t he? I’m glad we decided to bring him with us.Bird B: Yes. And these are delicious nuts.Sky people: Now the dinner is ready. Please enjoy the soup, meat, fish and pounded yam. Here is palm wine, too.Tortoise: Just a moment. Let me ask you first. For whom have you prepared this feast?Sky people: For whom? Why? For all of you, of course.Tortoise (T o the birds): You remember that my name is All of You. The custom here is to serve the spokesman first and the others later. They will serve you when I finish.Sky people (To themselves): Looks like it is their custom to leave all the food to their king first. T ortoise: Mm. Yumm y. Mm. I’m full now. You can start to eat.Bird A: We should never bring him here. I am too angry to eat. I’m going home.Bird B: Wait. I am leaving, too. Take the feather with us.Tortoise: What are you doing? Leave me the feather. Oh, how am I going home without a single feather? You can’t do this to me?Birds: Bye.Tortoise: Could someone take a message for my wife? Tell her to bring out everything soft a nd cover the ground. …4. Taking SidesSamples1) -- I don’t admire Tortoise’s cleverness. He was un wise to cheat all the birds. After his mischief, how could he have face to live together with them any longer? He would have no friends at all. He was clever, bu103ft at the same time he was also stupid. When all the birds became so angry, how could he have trusted Parrot? He should have jumped into the sea to avoid being hurt.-- I admire Tortoise’s cleverness. He was a guy who knew where to look for a nice dinner during a time of famine. He knew very well how to get trust from others. He was also quick-minded. His only mistake was that he should not be so greedy as not to leave any nice food for the birds.--I sympathize with the birds. They took Tortoise with them to the sky out of kindness, but after flying such a long distance, they had to fly back home on an empty stomach. They were formally invited, but the food was enjoyed by Tortoise, who hadn’t been formally invited. I think the birds were very unlucky.-- I think the birds are stupid. They knew very well that Tortoise couldn’t be trusted as he was always mischievous. But they persuaded themselves that he was a changed man. At the party they should have let the sky people know Tortoise was not their king and they had the right to have some of the nice food, as they were the guests.2) I le arned from the story that a) we should be honest, and shouldn’t cheat others. If we cheat others, we will be punished in the end; b) we shouldn’t be carried aw ay by sweet words, like the birds; c) a leopard can’t change its spots, nor can Tortoise. He was cunning, he could never change his personality andbehave himself.V ocabulary1. 1) A. invitation B. invited C. inviting2) A. prepare B. prepared C. preparation D. preparatory/preparation3) A. discoveries B. discoverers C. discovered4) A. approval B. approve C. approved D. approving E. disapprove5) A. eloquent B. eloquence C. eloquently6) A. faithful B. unfaithful/faithless C. faith D. faithfully7) A. occasional B. occasionally C. occasion8) A. delivery B. delivering C. delivered9) A. troublesome/trouble B. troubled C. troubled D. troubling10) A. assurance B. assured C. assure2. 1) ran/got into trouble 2) no trouble 3) asking for trouble4) have…troubl e 5) trouble with 6) in seri ous/deep/big trouble7) get/getting…into trouble 8) took the trouble3.1) with a pattern of roses2) prepared a wonderful/good meal for us3) promised faithfully4) deliver this letter5) a selection of milk and plain chocolate6) keep out of mischief/behave themselves7) the sound of distant thunder8) received approval from the government9) in spite of the fact that he drank too much10) agree whether the drug is safe or notPart ThreeFURTHER Development1. 1)CCABA 6)BABBA 11)BA5.1)the true reason why there was no such animal in Guizhou2)they were useless in this place3)When he suddenly saw the donkey, he thought it was a monster4)He hid himself in the tree while looking at donkey5)What kind of animal is this and why does it look different from other animal that I've ever seen6)But one day the donkey stretched its thin neck and cried 7)the tiger found that the donkey didn't have any other skills besides crying8)But he dared not rush to it and eat it just as he did to other animals9)This did make the donkey angry,so it raised its hind leg and kicked the tiger10)This time he rushed to it without hesitation and bit is throatPart Four Writing and Translation2.

I'm Dr. Helen Monroe here today to help you with your health problems. Let's go to the first caller. Hello, you're on the air.First Caller: Hello. My problem is sunburn. I fell asleep in the sun. Now I have a bad sunburn. Really bad. My skin is red and hot. I can't eat. I can't sleep. I feel terrible. What should I do? Doctor: For a bad sunburn, drink a lot of water. Stay in a cool, quiet room. Rest. And of course, don't go outside in the sun. Eat cool foods like ice cream and drink cold juice. Now on to our next caller.Second Caller: My problem is I can't sleep at night. Every night I can't fall asleep. So... I'm always tired.Doctor: If you can't sleep, don't take sleep medicine. It doesn't really help you. Instead, try to get some exercise every day. Swim, play tennis, dance ...perhaps take a walk. Secondly, don't drink a lot of alcohol or coffee. Especially coffee. It's loaded with caffeine that will keep you up. Third, try reading something very boring. A boring book can help you go right to sleep!

You can do it. To get started, check the list of ingredients: You need water, sugar, yeast, olive oil, flour and salt. Now, first, you need to make the dough. To make it, you just mix everything together. Then, you have to cover the dough and wait one and a half hours. Now, the second step is the fun part. You make the dough into a big round circle. You push it and pull it and stretch it into a circle. The next step is the sauce. You spread some pizza sauce, some tomato sauce, onto the dough. Not a lot of sauce. Too much sauce and the dough gets too wet. Then you add cheese. Mozzarella cheese is good. Two cups of cheese is about right. Sprinkle it on top. Now you are ready to add the toppings. You can use slices of sausage, diced onion, pieces of green pepper, chopped mushrooms, shrimp, strips of chicken... whatever you like. Next, you bake it for about 20 minutes. Finally, the pizza is ready! If this doesn't work, don't worry. You can go out and get a slice of pizza with your friends!3—20In the newsAnnouncer 1: At the San Diego zoo yesterday a gorilla saved a baby girl after the baby fell in with the gorillas.

All you have to do is just listen. Keep on listening. Don't answer back, and in nine cases out of ten, your staff will leave your room perfectly happy and satisfied.Even ordinary things should be noticed and appreciated. That's what the smart boss does. So you shouldn't just praise once and forget about it. If someone has done a good job, you should mention it again and again and again, because for most of us the desire for appreciation is never satisfied.Moreover, a good supervisor (监管者) certainly notices the changes in all members of his staff and asks about them. When a staff member is back from leave, the good supervisor asks the staff member how he enjoyed his time off. He welcomes him back with a cheerful smile. It is just these small touches that make all the difference between a pleasant and unpleasant working environment.It is a fact that anyone loves being given attention, and you have to recognize it if you want good results when dealing with people. People crave (渴求) attention. And they will get it one way or another. If they can't get it by being constructive (建设性的), they will get it by being destructive (破坏性的). Don't ignore people. Even a few seconds of attention periodically (周期性地) can make all the difference.As a boss, before you yourself eat or look after your own needs, you must see to the needs of your people. You should also keep yourself in touch with the habits and ways of the people who work for you. Give them plenty of chances to say what they think. Encourage them to do so. This is one of the best ways to keep open the lines of communication. Do this often. Talk to your people. Get to know what's on their minds. Then you will be able to anticipate theirneeds and even stop trouble well before a matter becomes serious.91.It may be surprising that people in general just _____B______________.A. feel happy and satisfied oftenB. wish to reveal their innermost feelingsC. listen to what others have to sayD. want to answer back when told something92.To be a smart boss, you should _______C_____________.A. only praise your staff members for a good job sometimesB. show your craving (渴求) for appreciation again and againC. take notice of ordinary things and show your appreciationD. do a good job and expect your staff members to praise you93.We can guess that these small touches of your care_____A_____________.A. enhance the pleasant feelings at workB. urge your staff members to come backC. enable yourself to go on workingD. keep your staff members working hard94.It is a general fact that people _______D________________.A. want good results in their workB. want to work without being botheredC. would become constructive (建设性的) when neglectedD. have a strong desire for attention95.The passage is mainly about _____B________________.A. praise being better than criticismB. how to be a smart bossC. listening to your staffD. making a differenceQuestions 96 to 100 are based on the same passage or dialog.In 1848, gold was discovered in California; from all over the nation, thousands of young men set out for California. People called this the time of the Gold Rush.A gold miner came into a city looking for a pair of pants. He wanted pants strong enough to stand up to the rough work of mining. He met a young man named Levi, who sold heavy cloth for tents and wagon tops. They asked a tailor to use heavy cloth for their pants. Then Levi went into the business of making work pants. He asked his brothers to send him some strong blue cotton cloth called denim (斜纹粗棉布). With this blue denim cloth, Levi started making the kind of pants we call blue jeans today. They were sewed up in the same way as other pants.In 1860, a miner said that the pockets weren't strong enough to hold the pieces of gold he found. The pockets kept falling off the pants. The cloth was all right. It was the thread that wasn't strong enough. So Levi used rivets (铆钉) to attach the pockets onto the pants.Cowboys needed tough pants, too. They liked their pants to fit tightly. But the rivets marked the cowboys' saddles. So Levi covered the rivets with cloth. Then everybody was happy.96.This article as a whole is about _____A_____________.A. how people got blue jeansB. the Gold Rush in CaliforniaC. How blue jeans are madeD. The kind of pants cowboys' wear97.While not stated in the article, you can tell that _______D___________.A. everybody who went to California got a lot of goldB. Levi found riches in the gold fieldsC.

CaliforniaB. the discovery of goldC. many people looking for goldD. the nation at this time99.Levi used strong blue cotton cloth to make pants because _____C_____.A. gold miners liked the blue colorB. this was the only cloth he hadC. miners wanted pants which could stand rough workD. cowboys liked their pants to fit tightly100.Which of the following sentences is NOT true?BA. It was Levi who started the business of making blue jeans.B. It was one tailor who started making blue jeans.C. It was in California that blue jeans first became popular.D. It was in California that gold was discovered.Questions 101 to 105 are based on the same passage or dialog.Rote-learning (死记硬背), spoon-fed education, produces a brand of kids thatdon't know what to do when entering university. They are disciplined intofollowing, not leading. Yet the future depends on creativity and imagination.The world needs creators, makers and shakers of the new centuries, not thefollowers of the past centuries. As the numbers increase at college anduniversity level, more students from the lower ends are likely to be thrown intoa process designed to choose only learners that have proved excellent inlistening to teachers.There are three ways to learn: looking, listening and doing.Students and teachers today are a product of learning by listening. Thecomputer may not be liked by traditional teachers, who use rote-learning toput information, which will be out of date in a few years, into the heads of thestudents. With computer learning you learn by looking, listening and doing;you use three methods of learning, not just one. Therefore, you can learnfaster.The changing speed of information is frightening. What we learn now will beout of date in the near future. So what students are learning now at schoolmay be replaced by the time they finish university. We have to learn by choicewhat to forget. Rote-learning for exams is one thing, but wouldn't it be betterto learn how to learn? The students at university today could possibly bedoing a job in the not too distant future which has not yet been invented.101.According to the author, the future doesn't need ___D_________.A. creativityB. imaginationC. creatorsD. followers102.In the author's view, how can students learn well?DA. Carefully listen to the teacher in class.B. Take down every single word said by the teacher.C. Learn all the notes by heart.D. Combine listening with looking and doing.103.What does the author mean by "The changing speed of information is frightening"? BA. We don't have enough time to adjust ourselves to the speed of information.B. What we learned today may not be useful tomorrow.C. The pace of life is too fast.D. The world is changing every minute.104.What does the last sentence of the passage tell us? BA. Rote-learning is completely harmful.B. Students may have to do jobs which are not yet in existence.C. It's better to learn how to learn than learn what to forget.D. Students must imagine the future.105.The author's attitude towards rote-learning is ___B______.A. approvingB. disapprovingC. confidentD. opposite to what the words say Key: 1-10 A C D C D/ C B B A C 11-20 C C C A C/ D B D C A。

And this is a 51.popular idea of friendship. This 52.ofwhat a friend does is held by many fine people. They 53.that people should stand next to their friend, right or wrong. I, however, don't see 54.with these people.To my mind, the greatest value of friends is something 55.. Friendspoint out when you're in error, either factually or 56.. So when you'remaking a horrible mistake, such as 57.on your wife, a friend shouldset you right. And if you're putting 58.in a business that's sure to fail, a friend should take you aside for a frank discussion. And all talk should be as 59.as it is honest. In other words, friendly talk should leave no room for60.. 61.the issue, one has to guide hisfriend in the clearest manner possible. Let me 62.my meaning. Justas a doctor 63.pills to people who need to become healthy, a friendshould share wisdom with a friend that needs to act well.64., whenever we support a friend in the wrong decisions, bad thingscome of it. Families 65., money vanishes, and lives are ruined. This isa(n) 66.of supporting our friends that should remain on the top of ourminds. And we should be 67..This is not to say that we shouldn't provide our friends with 68..In truth, we are 69.to encourage our friends at times. Butthose times should not be 70.. And we should support only rightactions.Part 3 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)(Each item: 2)Directions:Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.Questions 71 to 75 are based on the same passage or dialog.What should you think about in trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any especially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance at a fresh start at work.71. Which of the following best sums up the first paragraph?A. The importance of doing well at school.B. Using school performance to help to choose a career.C. The importance of being good at all subjects.D. The indirect value of schoolwork.72. Which subject has indirect, rather than direct, use for a job?A. Mathematics.B. English.C. Engineering.D. History.73. The writer thinks that for a student to have a part-time job is probably ______.A. a waste of time that could have been spent on studyB. useful for his future workC. a good way to earn extra moneyD. a good way to find out his weak points74. According to the passage, if a student's school record is not good, he ______.A. will be a complete failure in his future workB. will not be able to find a suitable jobC. will regret not having worked harder at schoolD. may do well in his future work75. The whole passage centers on ______.A. choosing a career according to what one is skilled inB. acquiring knowledge by working hard at schoolC. finding one's strong and weak pointsD. developing one's useful abilities in school workQuestions 76 to 80 are based on the same passage or dialog.As a Canadian bilingual (双语的) teacher, I agree that the Canadian bilingual schools have been successful in producing functionally bilingual students. However, Mr. Whelpton's suggested condition that teachers in these schools must be fully bilingual may be unnecessary. For example, primary teachers can and do function with a smaller vocabulary than secondary teachers. Secondly, it is doubtful that students will use English because they "understand and accept the objective of making English the language of the classroom" which is a rather sterile explanation. One reason that Canadian bilingual programs work is because of the commitment to Whole Language Learning, that is, children learn a language, (first or second), by using it to transmit (播送) or receive meaningful messages that are interesting, real and important. They want to make their needs and desires known and to understand the world around them. Bilingual programs integrate language and content in an activity-based, child-centered manner so that the child is motivated to use the second language as a tool to transmit and receive messages related to social and academic interests.Mr. Whelpton's third argument that all the students in one class need to be at approximately the same level of English proficiency (熟练) when they switch to English is unrealistic and unprofitable. How does a teacher group children who have a huge vocabulary but poor grammar skills with others who have correct grammar but a poor vocabulary? Also, suppose the students have similar language abilities but different learning styles! Therefore the concept of Cooperative Learning: students with a mixture of personalities, talents and weaknesses (a more realistic reflection of life) learn better as they cooperate (合作), instead of compete, and depend on each other for support and information.76. How would you describe the writer's style?A. Written in an academic style.B. Written in a journalistic style.C. Written in a personal style.D. Written on the basis of widespread research in the area.77. How would you describe the writer's attitude towards the Canadian bilingual programs?A. Balanced.B. Unenthusiastic.C. Supportive.D. Critical.78. In Paragraph 1 the writer ________.A. agrees completely with Mr. Whelpton's argumentB. agrees partially with Mr. Whelpton's argumentC. disagrees completely with Mr. Whelpton's argumentD. is overwhelmingly critical of Mr. Whelpton's argument79. In Paragraph 2 "sterile" is closest in meaning to ________.A. uninformativeB. unusualC. exaggeratedD. uninspiring80. According to the writer the Canadian bilingual programs have been a success ________.A. because students accept the objective of making English the language of the classroomB. because students study in classrooms where everybody is at about the same levelC. because the students can use their first language freelyD. because they work towards real life goalsQuestions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed (供应,分发) among buyers. The price system of the United States is a very complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought andsold in the economy as well as those of a myriad (极大数量) of services, including labor, professions, transportation, and public-utility (公用事业) services. The interrelationship of all these prices makes up the system of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else.If one were to ask a group of randomly (任意地) selected individuals to define price, many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product or service or, in other words, that price is the money value of a product or service as agreed upon in market transaction. This definition is, of course, valid as far it goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, much more than the money involved must be known. Both the buyer and seller should be familiar with not only the money amount, but with the amount and quality of the product or service to be exchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment will be made, the form of money to be used, the credit terms and discounts that apply to the transaction, guarantees (保证) on the product or service, delivery terms, return privilege, and other factors. In other words, both the buyer and seller should be fully aware of all the factors that compose the total "package" being exchanged for the asked-for amount of money in order that they may evaluate a given price.81. What is the best title for the passage?A. The Inherent Weaknesses of the Price System.B. The Complexities of the Price System.C. Credit Terms in Transactions.D. Resource Distribution and the Public Sector.82. According to the passage, the price system is related primarily to _____.A. labor and educationB. transportation and insuranceC. utilities and repairsD. products and services83. According to the passage, which if the following is NOT a factor in the complete understanding of price?A. Instructions that come with a product.B. The quantity of a product.C. The quality of a product.D. Warranties (保修证书) that cover a product.84. In the last sentence, the word "they" refers to ______.A. return privilegesB. buyers and sellersC. money and creditsD. all the factors85. The paragraph following the passage most likely discusses ______.A. unusual ways to advertise productsB. types of payment plans for serviceC. theories about how products affect different levels of societyD. how certain elements of a price "package" influence its market valueQuiz 3小题Part 1 Multiple Choice1.A2.C3.A4.D5.A6.B7.A8.B9.D 10.D11.D 12.C 13.A 14.B 15.D 16.

I usually kept to myself, had only a few friends, and rarely spoke in class. My parents were always very busy, so they never pushed me to become more involved in activities and meet more people. I was perfectly happy by myself. I spent much of my time with my nose buried in a book. The only times that I ventured away from the comforts of my bedroom were when I explored the seemingly endless aisles of stocked bookshelves at my favourite bookstore.In retrospect, it was no surprise that I read with such an incredible appetite. Reading was my escape. My favourite books were adventure and travel stories—stories that brought the readers to exotic, unexplored, or dangerous places. These were places I longed to go, and they were adventures I yearned to experience, but I knew it was all just a fantasy. I had a hard time working up the nerve to talk to a fellow classmate, I knew there was no way I could travel around the world and live out one of these adventures. Therefore, I read. I read every book I could find that promised adventure, excitement, or escape. By the time I graduated from high school, I had probably read more books than our school had in its library. It was quite an achievement, but no one knew about it except for me. I told no one because I had no one to tell. My only friend was Justin, and that relationship only existed because we had been next-door neighbours for fifteen years.Like most of my classmates, I applied to college and eventually worked up the courage to go. It wasn't easy. I had lived at home with my parents my whole life, and I rarely ever thought about leaving. However, it had finally become inevitable; I couldn't stay with them forever. I attended a local college and moved out to live in a dormitory with a roommate. It would be an understatement to say that I was nervous. I was terrified.My roommate's name was Greg, and the first few weeks of school were very awkward. He kept trying to start conversations and be friendly. I was able to answer his questions, of course, but I found it difficult to keep the conversation going. I just wasn't used to it—I had no practice at this sort of thing. Then one day I returned from an afternoon class and found him reading a Jack London book. Suddenly, I found that I had ahundred questions to ask Greg. Did he like Jack London? Which was his favourite book? Did he read a lot? What other authors did he like? The list was endless.To my surprise, Greg was also in love with adventure and travel books. One of his dreams was to travel around the world and follow in the footsteps of some of history's greatest explorers. There must have been magic at work that day. It was as if my shyness suddenly disappeared. Greg and I talked for hours about our favourite books and dreams of travel. I also found it easier to talk to other people at school and make friends since that day. I felt like the world opened up to me. So many things suddenly seemed possible. In fact, Greg and I are planning a great adventure for this summer! It may have taken me a while, but I finally found a way to break out of my shell and start enjoying life.41. Which of the following is a rite of passage that helped the writer to become less shy?A. Attending high school.B. Reading many books.C. Attending college.D. Planning a great adventure.42. In which paragraph does the author compare his desire to read to hunger?A. Paragraph 1.B. Paragraph 2.C. Paragraph 4.D. Paragraph 5.43. Which of the following would make the best title for this passage?A. A Painfully Shy ChildB. My College LifeC. Travels with GregD. Breaking Out of My Shell44. "It would be an understatement to say that I was nervous. I was terrified." What does the writermean by this statement?A. He wasn't nervous at all.B. He was mildly nervous.C. He was as nervous as usual.D. He was extraordinarily nervous.45. Which of the following statements can you infer from the passage?A. Jack London wrote exciting stories.B. Jack London wrote dull stories.C. Jack London wasn't a famous writer.D. Jack London was the writer's favourite writer.。
