A
What’s your idea about success? Some people say that beginners have all the luck, while others believe that success __46__ only with practice. In fact, I feel both of these statements(陈述) are not true all the time. Each is true in some ways __47__ not in others.
For example, I went to a drawing competition many years ago and __48__ surprisingly. As a prize, I got a film ticket to see Titanic. I was really __49__ because it was the first time I had taken part in the competition. Thinking that I might be lucky again, I __50__ joining in other art competitions. But the result was that I __51__ won again. I accepted the fact that the other people had a __52__ artistic ability than I did. Art was not something I was especially interested in and I had never practiced the different art skills. So, the __53__ I produced were not of a very high standard.
These experiences taught me a lot. Though I might have been lucky __54__, I also need to put in hard work. As we know, __55__ makes perfect. So I believe success builds on less luck and chance.
46. A. moves B. comes C. returns D. leaves
47. A. or B. so C. and D. but
48. A. won B. began C. failed D. ended
49. A. sorry B. active C. lucky D. nervous
50. A. tried B. forgot C. stopped D. remembered
51. A. often B. ever C. seldom D. never
52. A. greater B. more natural C. lower D. more common
53. A. ticket B. film C. prizes D. drawings
54. A. at last B. at most C. at first D. at least
55. A. chance B. practice C. difference D. experience
B
The NBA's latest season started in October. If you watch the games, you may often hear the names of NBA teams, __56__ the Cleveland Cavaliers(克利夫兰骑士队)and the Los Angeles Lakers(洛杉矶湖人队). But do you know the stories __57__ those names?
Every team's name has a unique origin(起源)and its own back story. Some teams' names refer to(涉及) famous historical events. And these events __58__ in their hometowns. The Philadelphia 76ers(费城76人队) are one __59__ of this. On July 4th,1776, the Declaration of Independence(《独立宣言》)was signed in Philadelphia. That was when Americans formally(正式地)announced their independence from Great Britain. This event __60__ the birth of the United States of America as we know it today.
Other teams are __61__ for the famous industries or events in their hometowns. For example, the Indianapolis 500 is a famous auto race. It takes place in Indiana's capital of Indianapolis. A “pace car” can lead the racers at the start of the race and helps them __62__ up. So it was easy to choose “Pacers” for the name of Indiana's NBA team.
Still other teams' names were inspired(启发)by their hometowns' wildlife. For example, the Minnesota Timber wolves(明尼苏达森林狼队)are named __63__ an animal: the timber wolf. Timber wolves are tough animals in Minnesota. This makes them a god name for a basketball team.
So __64__ you can see, the stories behind NBA team names can be quite attractive. If you do some research online, you can __65__ the story behind your favorite team's name on your own.
56. A. just B. like C. for D. as
57. A. before B. after C. behind D. at
58. A. took place B. was happened C. was taken place D. happen
59. A. player B. home C. family D. example
60. A. found B. given C. marked D. taken
61. A. followed B. named C. worked D. looked
62. A. warm B. get C. stand D. jump
63. A. before B. with C. as D. after

WHICH FAMOUS PERSON IN HISTORY WOULD YOU LIKE TO HAVE MET AND WHY?
For me it would clearly be Leonardo da Vinci. I'd love to have met him. He was such a creative talent and not just an artist. He seems to have predicted a number of inventions that only came about hundreds of years later, like flying machines and so on. I'd like to tell him he really did see the future.
Naomi, Chicago
I'd choose Cleopatra—the last king of ancient Egypt(埃及). She is thought to have been very beautiful and is generally considered to have developed some really useful political alliances(政治同盟). Not many women were that powerful in ancient times. I'd like to have seen how she did it.

Patricia, Caracas
I studied philosophy(哲学), so I would like to have spoken face-to-face with the Chinese philosopher Confucius.

Love is a two-way street
A father sat at his desk and looked at his bills when his young son rushed in and announced:“Dad, because today is your birthday and you're 40 years old, I'm going to give you 40 kisses, one for each year!” When the boy started making good on his word (履行诺言 ) , the father shouted: “Andrew, don't do it now. I'm too busy!”
The boy soon fell silent as tears fell from his big blue eyes. Feeling sorry, the father said: “You can finish later. The boy said nothing but quietly walked away. ” That evening the father said: “Come and finish the kisses now, Andrew!”But the boy didn't.
Unfortunately, a few days later after the father's birthday, the boy had an accident and died. His sad father wrote: “If only(要是……,该多好)I could tell him how sorry I am for my thoughtless words, and how much my heart is hurting. ”
Love is a two-way street. We must warmly accept any loving act, or others will take it as a “NO” and it can leave a scar(伤痕). If we don't receive love, our life will lose its true meaning. Nothing is more important than accepting love from those who are near and dear to us.

A. the father is busy with his work B. the boy is hard-working

The class teacher thought that hobbies were important for children. So she encouraged all her students to have one, and sometimes she arranged hobby shows for their parents to see as a result.
One morning the teacher told the class to have a holiday and get their hobby things to school before 5 p. m. A hobby show would be held the following afternoon.
So in the afternoon, the students with nothing to show did their lessons at school as usual, while the lucky ones had a holiday to go home for their hobby works.
When the afternoon lessons began, the teacher was surprised to see that Tommy was not there. “I don't believe Tommy has a hobby,” she thought. However, at a quarter to five, Tommy arrived with a beautiful collection of butterflies(蝴蝶) in glass cases. The teacher liked the samples(标本) very much and put them on a desk in the classroom. But, to her surprise, Tommy picked them up again and began to leave.
“What are you doing, Tommy?” she asked. “Those things must stay here until tomorrow afternoon. That's when the parents are coming to see them. ”
“I know that,”answered Tommy. “And I will bring them back tomorrow, but my elder brother doesn't want them to be out of our house at night. ”
“But, aren't the butterflies yours?”asked the teacher.
“No,” answered Tommy. “They are my brother's. ”
“But Tommy, you should show your own hobby here, not somebody else's!”
“I know that,” answered Tommy. What surprised her most was the answer. “My hobby is watching my brother collecting butterflies. ”
79. What did the class teacher think of hobbies for children?
A. Unwelcome. B. Hopeless.
C. Harmful. D. Important.
80. What time did Tommy get back to school that afternoon?
81. What would NOT happen the following afternoon?
A. The parents would enjoy the show in the classroom.
B. Tommy would bring the butterflies back.
C. The teacher would encourage her students for hobbies.
D. The butterflies would fly away.
82. Which was the teacher's greatest surprise?
A. Tommy was not at school as usual.
B. Tommy picked the butterflies up again and began to leave.
C. Tommy said his hobby was watching his brother collecting butterflies.
D. Tommy came back to school before 5 that afternoon.

C. Different hobbies. D. Collecting butterflies.
D
A group of working adults got together to visit their teacher. The teacher was glad to see them, and they talked about everything in their life. All of a sudden, conversations soon turned into complaints(抱怨) about stress in work and life.
The teacher just smiled and went to the kitchen to get different cups—some in plastic, some in glass, some plain-looking and some looked rather expensive. The teacher offered his students the cups to get drinks for themselves.
When all students had a cup in hand with water, the teacher spoke, “If you noticed, all the nice-looking and expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. It is normal that you only want the best for yourselves, but that is the beginning of your problems and stress. What all of you wanted was water, not the cup, but you went for the better cups. ”
Just like in life, if life is water, then the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold life, but the quality of life does not change. If you only care about the cup, you won't have time to enjoy the water in it.
84. How did the teacher feel when his students visited him?
A. Angry. B. Bored. C. Happy. D. Stressed.
85. Why did the teacher get different cups for the students?
A. To get drinks for them.
B. To show off his cups.
C. To complain about life.
D. To teach them a lesson.
86. The students did not prefer to take up ____.
A. cheap cups B. useful cups
C. expensive cups D. nice-looking cups
87. What does the writer mainly want to tell us?
A. We should have a good job.
B. We should make much more money.
C. We should care more about life itself.
D. We should drink much water in our life.

阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题后面的词数要求)。
When you're very, very afraid of something, that fear can affect(影响)you and how you live your life. When I was younger, I saw my cousin fall onto an ants' nest. The ants attacked(攻击)him, and he was covered in terrible bites(咬). After that I became very scared of ants. I wouldn't eat outside, and I didn't even like to play outside. I checked my bed for ants every night. But when I turned thirteen, I decided I couldn't let my fear get to me. I had to learn to control my fear of ants.
First I read a lot about different ants. I didn't focus on bites, but instead I read about how helpful ants are to the planet. Ants are really cool! They're hard-working, social, and organized. They help bring air and nutrients(营养)to the earth. They help plants grow, clean up decaying(腐烂的)matter, and help control other insects.
Next I began to watch ants from a safe distance. I started to look at a family of ants in real time on the Internet in order to learn how they live. Little by little, I felt more comfortable about ants. Finally I went outside one day and let an ant move onto my hand and touched it gently. It was OK !Now that I know about all the good things ants do, I'm not so afraid of them anymore.

How to get on well with your classmates?
Good morning, everyone,
Are you getting on well with your classmates? Here's some advice for you.
Be friendly to your classmates. Don't be cold to others. If you want more friends, be friendly to your classmates. Be ready to help your classmates. You can give your classmates some necessary help when they are in need or in trouble. Believe in your classmates. Trust is necessary in the best friendship. Learn to share. You should learn to share your delicious snacks, share your happiness and worries with them. Don't laugh at your classmates' shortcomings. We can point out their shortcomings, but not laugh at their shortcomings. Because we're not perfect.
Love is in your heart. Show less cold and more care to others, so everyone can feel your warmth. That's all for my speech. Thanks for listening.
