A[2022·常州武进区一模]
IF AT FIRST YOU DON’T SUCCEED
“It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so carefully that you might as well (还不如) not have lived at all—in which case, you fail by default (不经意地). Now, I am not going to tell you that failure is fun. But when you become wiser and stronger from failures, it means that you already have the abilities to survive.”
Richard Branson
“My mother always taught me never to look back in regret but to move onto the next thing. The time people waste on failures rather than putting the energy into another project always amazes me.”
George Clooney
“The best advice I got from my aunt, the great singer Rosemary Clooney, and from my dad, who was a game show host and a news reporter, was: Don’t wake up at 70 years old sighing (叹气) over what you haven’t done. Just do it now, be willing to fail, and at least you give it a shot.”
Michelle Kwan
“I started figure skating at the age of five, and the first thing my coach taught me was how to fall. I remember looking up with a puzzled (迷惑的) expression, thinking, shouldn’t I be learning to skate Looking back, I realize that my coach was very smart. She knew I was bound to fall many times through my career and that I’d need to learn how to deal with it.”
Laura Linney
“As the late great Jack Lemmon once said, ‘Failure seldom stops you. What stops you is the fear of failure.’ You will never achieve a deeper understanding of your work, or learn the difficult lessons, if you are liked or comfortable all the time.”
31. Who thinks that if you don’t forget the past, the future will never come

B[2022·扬州广陵区树人学校月考]
It’s not easy growing up. Growing up can be a real “pain” for some of us. We are always doing things that someone else makes us do and aren’t allowed to do all the things we like. Sometimes we feel sad, sometimes we are afraid, and sometimes we just don’t understand why we can’t stay young forever. But we should take a look back on all the hard periods in life with a positive attitude (积极的态度) and learn from them. We should realize that all of our growing pains actually turn into growing gains!
Throughout our lives we are going to face many challenges and pains, but we should never let these obstacles keep us from following our dreams. We must overcome every obstacle one small step at a time.
As a young girl, my parents forced me to do so many things that I didn’t like. They made me learn to play the violin and then the piano. At that time, I hated music and I also hated them. But looking back now, I am so glad that my parents encouraged me to take music lessons. Music has enriched (丰富) my life in so many ways. I now realize that my parents and teachers wanted me to have a better life than they did themselves.
We are all going to experience growing pains, but they are just part of our life. Think about how we would feel if we had no challenges and lived a life like that. Life would be really boring and meaningless. The future is ours! A little hard work and sweat (汗水) never hurt
anyone! If we realize that these pains are just small bumps (碰撞) on our road to success, we will realize that our growing pains are actually growing gains.
34. When we take a look back on all the hard periods in life, we should ________.
A. get afraid of them
B. pay no attention to them

C[2022·大连]
In a small village, there was a wise old man named Ryan. One day his young nephew (侄子) Keith came to visit him. During their talk, Keith said he was sad and worried about his little progress in learning the guitar. However hard he tried, he just couldn’t improve much.
Keith asked his uncle for advice. “Follow me,” said Ryan, and he led Keith up to the high hills around the village. This road was long and difficult, but Keith followed the old man. As they got higher, Ryan said that he needed to go to the top of the highest hill where he had never been to. Keith was surprised but decided to help his uncle.
With great difficulty, Keith helped his uncle climb the hill. Sometimes he even carried the old man on his back. At the top, sweating (流汗), he put his uncle back on the ground and laughed with joy.
“Do you remember the times when you were a little boy Sometimes you returned home with tears in your eyes,” said Ryan. “The other children teased (嘲笑) you. Do you remember why ”
Keith looked around and nodded. He remembered that as a child he often played on the hills with other children. They called this hill Mount Impossible, because small children couldn’t reach its top. “At that time I was unable to get here,” said Keith. “The bigger kids had no problem.”
“And today,” said Ryan, “you not only climbed here, but also dragged me up.”
“I became bigger and stronger.”
“Instead of climbing Mount Impossible every day, you played on the smaller hills and became better at climbing. You became stronger,” said Ryan. “Mount Impossible became possible for you to climb while you weren’t even thinking about it.”

D[2022·常州教育学会期末]
The list for the sixth-grade basketball team was announced online. I was a little worried because I knew how much my 12-year-old son wanted to make the team.
I read the list of 13 names for a few minutes. Finally, I had to tell myself that my son wasn’t among the players who were allowed to continue playing. I felt sad. I wished it would be about victory. Like every parent, I love to say, “You did it!”
Instead, I had to give my son a speech to comfort my son, which was a lot less exciting, but probably more important. It was not really a speech, but a further discussion about spirit, courage and not giving up. Although it was painful for me to see myself so disappointed ( 失望的), I needed to keep my own feelings in check. Sure, I wanted to call the coach to say he made a big mistake, but I would not. Nor would I let my son know that I thought it unfair (不公平的). Instead, I put my own feelings aside and let my son have a safe place to calm down his own moods.
And when he was done, I needed to encourage him to continue to improve skills. That day was a loss, but the only way to get another win was to put on his trainers and get on the basketball court again.
My son is 15 years old now. And, after being cut from the team for three years in a row (连续地)，he got to see his name on the list for the high school team. Last week, my husband and I watched him play in his first game. The smile on his face when he made his first shot in is something I will never forget. After so many failures, it was a win that didn’t come easy for him. And it wouldn’t have happened if he had given up trying.
42. Why did the writer feel sad at first
A. Because her son didn’t keep feeling confident.
B. Because her son didn’t enter the basketball team.
C. Because her son decided to stop playing basketball.
D. Because her son failed in a few basketball matches.
43. What does the underlined part “keep my own feelings in check” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Hide my own feelings.
B. Hurt my own feelings.
C. Follow my own feelings.
D. Show my own feelings.
44. What can be inferred about the writer’s son
A. He felt unhappy with his parents.
B. He stopped working on his game skills.
C. He played in the high school team at the age of 12.
D. He was finally accepted by his high school team.
45. What’s the best title of the passage
A. Cry out when feeling down
B. Give up at the right time
C. Victory comes from keeping trying
D. Success comes from chances

IF AT FIRST YOU DON’T SUCCEED
“It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so carefully that you might as well (还不如) not have lived at all—in which case, you fail by default (不经意地). Now, I am not going to tell you that failure is fun. But when you become wiser and stronger from failures, it means that you already have the abilities to survive.”
Richard Branson
“My mother always taught me never to look back in regret but to move onto the next thing. The time people waste on failures rather than putting the energy into another project always amazes me.”
George Clooney
“The best advice I got from my aunt, the great singer Rosemary Clooney, and from my dad, who was a game show host and a news reporter, was: Don’t wake up at 70 years old sighing (叹气) over what you haven’t done. Just do it now, be willing to fail, and at least you give it a shot.”
Michelle Kwan
“I started figure skating at the age of five, and the first thing my coach taught me was how to fall. I remember looking up with a puzzled (迷惑的) expression, thinking, shouldn’t I be learning to skate Looking back, I realize that my coach was very smart. She knew I was bound to fall many times through my career and that I’d need to learn how to deal with it.”
Laura Linney
“As the late great Jack Lemmon once said, ‘Failure seldom stops you. What stops you is the fear of failure.’ You will never achieve a deeper understanding of your work, or learn the difficult lessons, if you are liked or comfortable all the time.”

It’s not easy growing up. Growing up can be a real “pain” for some of us. We are always doing things that someone else makes us do and aren’t allowed to do all the things we like. Sometimes we feel sad, sometimes we are afraid, and sometimes we just don’t understand why we can’t stay young forever. But we should take a look back on all the hard periods in life with a positive attitude (积极的态度) and learn from them. We should realize that all of our growing pains actually turn into growing gains!
Throughout our lives we are going to face many challenges and pains, but we should never let these obstacles keep us from following our dreams. We must overcome every obstacle one small step at a time.
As a young girl, my parents forced me to do so many things that I didn’t like. They made me learn to play the violin and then the piano. At that time, I hated music and I also hated them. But looking back now, I am so glad that my parents encouraged me to take music lessons. Music has enriched (丰富) my life in so many ways. I now realize that my parents and teachers wanted me to have a better life than they did themselves.
We are all going to experience growing pains, but they are just part of our life. Think about how we would feel if we had no challenges and lived a life like that. Life would be really boring and meaningless. The future is ours! A little hard work and sweat (汗水) never hurt
anyone! If we realize that these pains are just small bumps (碰撞) on our road to success, we will realize that our growing pains are actually growing gains.

In a small village, there was a wise old man named Ryan. One day his young nephew (侄子) Keith came to visit him. During their talk, Keith said he was sad and worried about his little progress in learning the guitar. However hard he tried, he just couldn’t improve much.
Keith asked his uncle for advice. “Follow me,” said Ryan, and he led Keith up to the high hills around the village. This road was long and difficult, but Keith followed the old man. As they got higher, Ryan said that he needed to go to the top of the highest hill where he had never been to. Keith was surprised but decided to help his uncle.
With great difficulty, Keith helped his uncle climb the hill. Sometimes he even carried the old man on his back. At the top, sweating (流汗), he put his uncle back on the ground and laughed with joy.
“Do you remember the times when you were a little boy Sometimes you returned home with tears in your eyes,” said Ryan. “The other children teased (嘲笑) you. Do you remember why ”
Keith looked around and nodded. He remembered that as a child he often played on the hills with other children. They called this hill Mount Impossible, because small children couldn’t reach its top. “At that time I was unable to get here,” said Keith. “The bigger kids had no problem.”
“And today,” said Ryan, “you not only climbed here, but also dragged me up.”
“I became bigger and stronger.”
“Instead of climbing Mount Impossible every day, you played on the smaller hills and became better at climbing. You became stronger,” said Ryan. “Mount Impossible became possible for you to climb while you weren’t even thinking about it.”

D[2022·常州教育学会期末]
The list for the sixth-grade basketball team was announced online. I was a little worried because I knew how much my 12-year-old son wanted to make the team.
I read the list of 13 names for a few minutes. Finally, I had to tell myself that my son wasn’t among the players who were allowed to continue playing. I felt sad. I wished it would be about victory. Like every parent, I love to say, “You did it!”
Instead, I had to give my son a speech to comfort my son, which was a lot less exciting, but probably more important. It was not really a speech, but a further discussion about spirit, courage and not giving up. Although it was painful for me to see myself so disappointed ( 失望的), I needed to keep my own feelings in check. Sure, I wanted to call the coach to say he made a big mistake, but I would not. Nor would I let my son know that I thought it unfair (不公平的). Instead, I put my own feelings aside and let my son have a safe place to calm down his own moods.
And when he was done, I needed to encourage him to continue to improve skills. That day was a loss, but the only way to get another win was to put on his trainers and get on the basketball court again.
My son is 15 years old now. And, after being cut from the team for three years in a row (连续地)，he got to see his name on the list for the high school team. Last week, my husband and I watched him play in his first game. The smile on his face when he made his first shot in is something I will never forget. After so many failures, it was a win that didn’t come easy for him. And it wouldn’t have happened if he had given up trying.
42. Why did the writer feel sad at first
A. Because her son didn’t keep feeling confident.
B. Because her son didn’t enter the basketball team.
C. Because her son decided to stop playing basketball.
D. Because her son failed in a few basketball matches.
43. What does the underlined part “keep my own feelings in check” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Hide my own feelings.
B. Hurt my own feelings.
C. Follow my own feelings.
D. Show my own feelings.
44. What can be inferred about the writer’s son
A. He felt unhappy with his parents.
B. He stopped working on his game skills.
C. He played in the high school team at the age of 12.
D. He was finally accepted by his high school team.
45. What’s the best title of the passage
A. Cry out when feeling down
B. Give up at the right time
C. Victory comes from keeping trying
D. Success comes from chances

You bring me up. I will be with you in your life. You are the most important people in the process of my growth.
You give me life and take care of me all the time. When I have problems with my study and life, you are always patient enough to help me and encourage me. In order to let me live a pleasant life and receive good education, you always work hard from morning to evening every day. You are also full of love.
You are ready to help people in need. It is you who teach me to be a kind person. In the past, I never said “I love you” to you. Today I will graduate, and I want to say it aloud to you. I will study harder to get better results.
I hope you will be happy and healthy forever.
