Wearinga smart business suit and tie, he would surely speak English, wouldn’t he? Unfortunately,he couldn’t undersold me but seemed very friendly.

When Queen Victoria visited the re in 1873 she wrote in her diary, “I never saw a lovelier spot,” And she didn’t even go fishing.Scotland is not easily defined. In certain moments, this quiet land of lakes and grass mountains changes before your very eyes. When evening gently sweeps the hillside into orange, the rivers, teeming with fish, can turn into streams of gold. As you settle down with just a people and a basket on the bank of River Orchy, near the Inverlochy Castle, any frustration will float away as gently as the circling water. It’s just you and purple, pink, white flowers, a perfect harmony. If you are a new comer to fishing, learning the basics from a fishing guide may leave you with a lifetime’s fun. For many, fishing is morethan a sport; it is an art.Scotland offers inte resting place where you can rest after a long day’s fishing. Set against a wild mountain and hidden behind woodland, the beautiful Inverlochy Castle Hotel below the Nevis is a perfect place to see the beauty of Scotland’s mountains. Ben Nevis is the highes t of mountains, and reaching its 1342-metre top is a challenge. But it’s not just what goes up that matters; what comes down is unique. More than 900 metres high, on the mountain’s north face, lies an all-important source of pure water. Its name comes from the Gaelic language “usqueb” or “water of life”; and it is the single most important ingredient in Scotland’s best known whisky.（1）The story of Queen Victoria is to show that .A . the queen is rich in tour experienceB . the Castle is a good place to go in ScotlandC . tasting whisky is better than going fishingD . 1873 is a special year for the queen（2）How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?A .

I am not going to try to explainsuccess. I think a precise meaning is impossible! Is it winning a Gold Medal atthe Olympic Games or winning Wimbledon, or being awarded a Nobel Prize? What else?I believe personal success could be anything at all- it does not have to involvepublic recognition. Who is more successful? A millionaire who is unhappy, or anunnoticed person, who has led a simple, quiet, sincere and happy life? The simplestdefinition of success, I think, is “to set out to do something and to succeed indoing it.The first step on the road to success starts withbelief. Believe you can succeed and you will. Achieving success in whatever endeavoryou choose may be the goal of life; because it gives you freedom fromworry. Could that be?Success means different things to every one of us.Some people believe it is measured in financial term; others believe it is helpingothers rather than helping themselves. However, most people are motivated to a greatextend by public recognition. How many people are really happy? How many peopleare really doing what they want to with their lives? Incidentally, to imagine makesus different from animals.Most important of all, I believe success is a matterof personal growth. If every day you are developing or growing just a millimeter,I believe one is successful. Just being a slightly better person each day for meis success. I’ve got a very long way to go them!Finally, always remember success is a process andis not simply a matter of arriving at a destination. It’s the journey that reallymatters. Success is what you become in the often very difficult and dangerous journeydown the river of life.（1）What is personal success according to the author?A . Winning public recognitionB .
