Dr Martin Luther King was one of the greatest leaders of the 20th century. He was a fighter for the rights of African Americans all his life. There are many lessons that we can learn from him about being a better person and a better leader. Take these four points of his wisdom for example.
★ Do your best. King called for excellence in whatever you do when he said in a speech,
“If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets just as Michelangelo painted pictures, or Beethoven wrote music, or Shakespeare wrote poems. He should sweep streets so well.”
★ Believe that you are somebody. King said,
“Don’t allow anybody to make you feel that you’re nobody. Always feel that you are people of great worth, and always feel that your life has meaning.”
★ Happiness comes from making others happy. Bring joy to someone else’s life without thinking about what you can get in return. King explained,
“Those who are not looking for happiness are most likely to find it, because those who are looking for it forget that the best way to be happy is to find happiness for others.”
★ Let hope last forever. Research shows that hope helps patients live longer. Wake up with hope every day even if you’ve lost a job, money, your home or loved ones. King said,
“Don’t let difficult times get you down. Stand up for a world free from fear. No matter how heavy the storm is or no matter how difficult things are, keep on and don’t give up.”
( )61. From the first point of Martin Luther King’s wisdom, we can learn that _________.
A. street sweepers work very hard
B. street sweepers do the greatest work
C. even street sweepers can be excellent
D. street sweepers are as creative as artists
( )62. What’s the meaning of the underlined sentence
A. Believe that you are a true man.
B. Remember that you are important.
C. Believe that you should respect others.
D. Remember always to be yourself.
( )63. What kind of people get happiness more easily
A. Those who are excellent. B. Those who are full of hope.
C. Those who do worthy things. D. Those who like to help others.
( )64. According to Martin Luther King, we need hope to _________.
A. live longer B. make a living
C. fight against fear D. get through difficulties
( )65. What’s the purpose of the passage

七、阅读填空（每小题1分，满分20分）
A. 阅读下面的短文，并根据所读内容，在文章后的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每空一词。
“Step back, and let me do it,” 27-year-old Du Fuguo told his partner before a landmine exploded (地雷爆炸) in front of him. In the landmine clearing work in Yunnan on October 11, 2018, Du chose to face the dangerous situation by himself after asking his partner to step back. The explosion took Du’s both hands and eyes.
The field where Du was working that day is located in a forest. It was the front line of a war thirty years ago. And lots of landmines were laid there at that time. As time went by, the landform changed — some parts went upwards while some went down. That made the situation in the field more difficult and dangerous. The area became a “death zone” and nobody dares (敢) to enter it.
To protect the local people, in 2015, Du and over 400 soldiers (战士) started clearing landmines in the forest, where over 100 landmine fields were located. Since it was so difficult to see clearly in the forest that machines couldn’t help, the soldiers had to do the dangerous work by hand. Over the past several years, Du has entered landmine fields more than 1,000 times. He has removed (移除) more than 150 tons of bombs(炸弹), 400 landmines and faced more than 20 dangerous situations.
The explosion happened when Du and another soldier tried to remove a bomb. One month later, in November last year, Du’s team members finished the clearing work. The landmine field where the explosion happened is now safe enough to be used as the farmland.
“Though I lost my hands, I have legs to continue running after dreams; though I lost my eyes, my world remains colourful as long as the sun can rise in my heart,” Du said.
B. 阅读下面的短文，根据所给的首字母提示，用合适的单词填空。
This is a true story about a famous scientist. The scientist was once asked why he was so creative and what made him so different from others.
He replied that he was not born with the ability to explore the (96) u _________ secrets or invent new things. The secret came from an (97) e _________ with his mother. It happened when he was about four years old.
Once he felt (98) h _________ , so he tried to get a bottle of milk out of the fridge, but the milk bottle dropped to the ground and milk was spilled (洒) everywhere. After his mother came into the kitchen, (99) i_______ of shouting at him angrily, she said calmly, “Wow, how beautiful the milk sea is! I have never seen so much milk on the floor. You are just my (100) p _________ , baby. If you are interested in it, just play with it for a few minutes.”
After a while, they cleaned the floor together. His mother then explained patiently, “You know, what we have here is a try at (101) h _________ to carry a big milk bottle steadily (稳稳地) with two hands. Now let’s (102) f _________ the bottle with water to see whether you can find a way
to hold it (103) w _________ dropping it.” The little boy learned that if he grasped (抓住) the bottle at the top near the lip (瓶口) with both hands, he could hold it (104) s _________ .
It was at that moment that the scientist made an amazing (105) d_______ that mistakes are just chances for learning something new.

Dr Martin Luther King was one of the greatest leaders of the 20th century. He was a fighter for the rights of African Americans all his life. There are many lessons that we can learn from him about being a better person and a better leader. Take these four points of his wisdom for example.
★ Do your best. King called for excellence in whatever you do when he said in a speech,
“If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets just as Michelangelo painted pictures, or Beethoven wrote music, or Shakespeare wrote poems. He should sweep streets so well.”
★ Believe that you are somebody. King said,
“Don’t allow anybody to make you feel that you’re nobody. Always feel that you are people of great worth, and always feel that your life has meaning.”
★ Happiness comes from making others happy. Bring joy to someone else’s life without thinking about what you can get in return. King explained,
“Those who are not looking for happiness are most likely to find it, because those who are looking for it forget that the best way to be happy is to find happiness for others.”
★ Let hope last forever. Research shows that hope helps patients live longer. Wake up with hope every day even if you’ve lost a job, money, your home or loved ones. King said,
“Don’t let difficult times get you down. Stand up for a world free from fear. No matter how heavy the storm is or no matter how difficult things are, keep on and don’t give up.”

七、阅读填空（每小题1分，满分20分）
A. 阅读下面的短文，并根据所读内容，在文章后的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每空一词。
“Step back, and let me do it,” 27-year-old Du Fuguo told his partner before a landmine exploded (地雷爆炸) in front of him. In the landmine clearing work in Yunnan on October 11, 2018, Du chose to face the dangerous situation by himself after asking his partner to step back. The explosion took Du’s both hands and eyes.
The field where Du was working that day is located in a forest. It was the front line of a war thirty years ago. And lots of landmines were laid there at that time. As time went by, the landform changed — some parts went upwards while some went down. That made the situation in the field more difficult and dangerous. The area became a “death zone” and nobody dares (敢) to enter it.
To protect the local people, in 2015, Du and over 400 soldiers (战士) started clearing landmines in the forest, where over 100 landmine fields were located. Since it was so difficult to see clearly in the forest that machines couldn’t help, the soldiers had to do the dangerous work by hand. Over the past several years, Du has entered landmine fields more than 1,000 times. He has removed (移除) more than 150 tons of bombs(炸弹), 400 landmines and faced more than 20 dangerous situations.
The explosion happened when Du and another soldier tried to remove a bomb. One month later, in November last year, Du’s team members finished the clearing work. The landmine field where the explosion happened is now safe enough to be used as the farmland.
“Though I lost my hands, I have legs to continue running after dreams; though I lost my eyes, my world remains colourful as long as the sun can rise in my heart,” Du said.
