…and they find it hard to spell and pronounce the words. find it + adj. + (for sb) to do sth. “发现做某事(对某人来说)是……”其中it作形式宾语, 真正的宾语是后面的动词不定式to do sth., 形容词作宾语补足语。I find it difficult to do the job well. 我发现做好这个工作不容易。I find it easy to get on with her. 我发现她很容易相处。【注意】这一结构可改成由that引导的宾语从句, 在it和形容词之间加适当的be动词即可。例如： I find it easy for me to finish the work in an hour. = I find that it is easy for me to finish the work in an hour. 我发现对我来说在一小时内完成工作很容易。【拓展】当不定式、动名词、从句等用作主语时, 为避免头重脚轻, 通常在句首使用形式主语it, 而把真正的主语放在句子末尾。例如：It’s a pity to refuse. 拒绝是令人遗憾的。It’s no use saying any more about it. 再谈这事没有用。It’s not known where she went. 她到哪里去了没人知道。

三、阅读理解
A
As a volunteer teacher, I travelled a long way to a small village school in Longzhou, Guangxi. On my way there, I thought about the village, the school, and the children there. However, my heart sank when I arrived there. It wasn't what I expected. It didn't look like a school at all. The school had only 3 rooms, one for Grades 1, 2 and 3, and another for Grades 4, 5 and 6. There was a third one for me.
The children welcomed me warmly on my first day. They asked me a lot of questions, and I told them stories and my life in Shanghai. The next day, I gave them a test to find out their level. To my surprise, although the test was very easy, over half of them failed it, yet they all wanted to learn new things. I knew they needed me.
I am busy preparing lessons, and reading test papers every night. I enjoyed teaching these lovely and hard-working children, and I could see that they were making progress with my help. I have also learned a lot from them. I understand their lives better and we are now good friends.
I have worked in Longzhou for a year now. I'm very happy, and the experience has been very useful for me. I love the small village and the children. In fact, I would like to continue working here.
( )l. In the passage, “my heart sank. . "means that the writer________.
A. felt excited B. was happy C. felt sad D. was angry
( )2. The writer found the students' level was_______she expected after the first test.
A. just as B. higher than C. lower than D. as low as
( )3. What does the writer think of her experience in Longzhou
A. It is boring. B. It is silly. C. It is meaningless. D. It is useful.
B
In modern society there is a lot of disagreement about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is good for social progress. Others say that competition is bad. It sets one person against another. And it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.
I have taught many children who believe that their self-worth depended on how well they did at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death matters. In their single-minded dream of success, the development of many other human qualities(品质)is sadly forgotten.
However, while some seem to be lost in the desire(渴望)to succeed, others take a different attitude. In a culture which values only the winners, they are strongly against competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who are under competitive pressures(压力)from their parents or society. They are always told to be the top ones, but they think it's really hard. When I teach these young people, I often find them in a desire to fail. They seem to search for failure(失败)by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse:“I may have lost, but it doesn't matter because I really didn't try. If I had tried and lost, that would mean a lot.
Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief. They think one's self-respect depends on how well one does compared with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this fear begins to dissolve(消除)can we discover a new meaning in competition.
( )1. Why do some people welcome competition according to the passage
A. It pushes society forward. B. It improves one's abilities.
C. It develops human qualities. D. It builds up friendly relationship.
( )2. The underlined phrase“the most vocal'"in Paragraph 3 means________.
A. those who try their best to win B. those who value competition most highly
C. those who depend on others most for success D. those who are against competition most strongly
( )3. Which of the following may the writer agree to
A. Every effort should be paid back. B. Competition should be encouraged.
C. Winning should be a life-and-death matter. D. Fear of failure should be taken away in competition.
( )4. What does this passage mainly talk about
A. Competition helps to set up self-respect. B. Competition is bad for social development.
C. Ideas about competition are different among people. D. Failures are necessary experiences in competition.
C
One of the problems career people(上班族)have in the morning is dressing for the office when there will be an evening party immediately followed, with no time to return home to change. The easiest solution is to keep a full set of toiletries(洗漱用品)and make-up stored somewhere at the office.
A woman going to an evening party should dress in one of her“basic dresses"in the morning-the kind that can change into a different look with an added scarf or jewelry. In fifteen minutes, when her office day has ended, she can metamorphose(彻底变化)herself into another person with freshly cleaned teeth, combed hair, a new face, a different and dressier(考究的)pair of shoes, and some sparkling jewelry. If she must wear a long dress for the party, she should bring it to the office in a protective bag and store it safely until she has to put it on.
( )1. The easiest solution is________.
A. to keep a full set of toiletries and make-up stored somewhere at the office
B. not to go to the party
C. to take a taxi home
D. to finish work earlier
( )2. If a woman is going to a party, she should wear _______in the morning.
A. a nice dress B. a“basic dress" C. her uniform D. casual clothes
( )3. How long does it take a woman to change herself at least
A. About five minutes. B. About fifteen minutes. C. About half an hour. D. About fifty minutes.
( )4. If a woman must wear a long dress for the party, she should______.
A. wear it in the morning B. buy one in the shop C. borrow one from her workmate D. bring it to the office

The famous director(导演)of a big and expensive movie planned to film a beautiful sunset(日落) over the ocean, so that the audiences could see his hero and heroine in front of it at the end of the film as they said goodbye to each other forever. He sent his camera workers out one evening to film the sunset for him. The next morning he said to the men, “Have you provided me with that sunset ”
“No, Sir, "the men answered.
The director was angry. “Why not "he asked.
“Well, Sir, "one of the men answered, “we're on the east coast here, and the sun sets in the west. We can get you a sunrise(日出)over the sea, if necessary(必要), but not a sunset. ”
“But I want a sunset!"the director shouted. “Go to the airport, take the next flight to the west coast, and get one.
But then a young secretary had an idea. “Why don't you photo a sunrise, "she asked, “and then play it backwards Then it'll look like a sunset. "
“That's a very good idea!"the director said. Then he turned to the camera workers and said, “Tomorrow morning I want you to get me a beautiful sunrise over the sea. ”
The camera workers went out early the next morning and filmed a bright sunrise over the beach in the middle of a beautiful coast. Then at nine o'clock they took it to the director. “Here it is, Sir, "they said, and gave it to him. He was very pleased.
They all went into the studio(工作室). “All right, ”the director explained, "now our hero and heroine are going to say goodbye. Run the film backwards so that we can see the 'sunset' behind them.
The“sunset'"began, but after a quarter of a minute, the director suddenly put his face in his hands and shouted to the camera workers to stop.
The birds in the film were flying backwards, and the waves on the sea were going away from the beach.
