I tried to take great care of it, but 24 , it still died. Working is the same as growing plants. No matter how hard you try, you 25 decide what will happen in the end.”“Then what’s the 26 of working if I am not sure of success?” Ramu asked.Mr White took him to another room where there were plenty of big red tomatoes. “They are the 27 of not giving up. I kept sowing* seeds and looking after them. This time, the plants grow very well. 28 , if you keep doing the right things, your chances of achieving success will greatly increase. But if you give up because of one or two failures, life will not give you any reward.”Ramu realised that it was not 29 to see his failure as a reason for not trying further.

Great views during his journeys.B. Customs in different countries.C. Difficulties he met along the way.D. Interesting places in some countries.BViridiana is a Mexican young woman who spent three years working in Montreal, Canada. Now she is back in Mexico. Some of her friends ask her to talk about differences between Mexico and Canada because they want to go to Canada in winter. Viridiana says that one of the main differences is the weather. In Mexico they do not have a very cold winter, while in Canada the temperature can drop to around -20℃. People in Canada are used to it because houses, stores, restaurants and many other places have heating. If people want to go out, they will wear thick coats, special shoes, winter hats and scarfs. If you go to the bus stop, you will find shelters that protect people from snow. Buses are always on time. If you take a taxi, you need to call it ahead of time and pay more for it. If you want to use your car, you will need to plug it into the electricity because the car can’t start easily. Although it is awfully cold, you will find that stores and restaurants are open. If you buy something in a store, you will pay the tax* which is usually 15% of the price. If you want to have dinner in a common restaurant, you will pay about 25 dollars for each person on average. And you have to tip 15% of the bill. Don’t expect to buy fruit and vegetables cheaply because they aren’t produced in Canada. For example, just one apple can cost you more than two dollars! ( )34. We know about _______ in Canada from the second paragraph. A. the transportation B. the customs C. the eating habits D. the weather ( )35. A family of four need to pay about _______ in total for a dinner in a common restaurant. A. 25 dollars B. 100 dollars C. 115 dollars D. 150 dollars ( )36. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Viridiana lives in Montreal, Canada now. B. Fruit and vegetables are quite cheap in Canada. C. The cost of using one’s own car is very high in Canada. D. People in Canada know how to deal with the cold weather.( )37. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Life in Canada B. Living a simple lifeC. Travelling across CanadaD. Wonderful winter activitiesCIs there a connection between music and language? According to recent studies, the answer is yes. Music improves certain language abilities in the brain. Music and hearingA recent study by researcher Nina Kraus shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person’s hearing ability. As a part of the study, two groups of people listened to a person who was talking in a noisy room. The people in the first group are musicians, while those in the second group have no musical training. The musicians were able to hear the talking person more clearly.Musicians can hear better, according to Kraus, because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds. Think about violinists in an orchestra. When the violinists play with the group, they hear their own instrument and many others, too. But the violinists must listen closely to what they are playing, and ignore* the other sounds. In this way, musicians are able to concentrate on certain sounds, even in a room with lots of noise. ▲ Gottfried Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke patients. Because of their illness, these people can’t say their name, address, or other information normally. However, they can still sing. Schlaug was surprised to find that singing words helped his patients to speak. Why does this work? Schlaug isn’t sure. Music seems to make different parts of the brain active, including the damaged parts. This somehow helps patients to use that part of the brain again.Music improves concentration, memory, listening skills, and our language abilities. It can even help sick people get better. Playing an instrument or singing can help us do better in school and keep our brain active as we get older. Music is not only enjoyable, but also good for us in many other ways.( )38. The writer uses the example of violinists to show 　　　　.A. it’s hard to be a violinist B. musicians are very creativeC. music makes people healthyD. musicians have better hearing ability( )39. Which of the following can be put into the “ ▲ ” in the passage?A. Music and writing B. Music and speakingC. Music and reading D. Music and memory( )40. How did Gottfried Schlaug help his stroke patients speak?A. By making them exercise. B. By playing music for them.C. By asking them to sing words.D. By teaching them to play an instrument.( )41. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A .To explain why people like listening to music.B. To give people advice on how to stay healthy.C. To discuss how to keep old people’s brain active. D. To introduce the connection between music and language.D As a child, I was a slow learner when it came to physical skills. I fell down many times before I could comfortably ride a bike. Learning to swim was my greatest challenge. As an 8-year-old attending a summer camp, I just stood by the side of the pool, while other boys in my group swam like a fish. Perhaps this is why I was hesitant* when my friend suggested that I try standup paddleboarding. My fear was that my ability to learn a new physical skill had not improved. But in fact, the sport had already caught my eye. During visits to Marine lakes, I had seen people paddle under the warm sun. They could stand on the board steadily* just like a statue.The sport looked so easy, as the only thing was the ability to stand up, right? So I bought a paddleboard and then headed for a lake deep in the Marine woods with my friend Mike. Mike offered to test the paddleboard. He stood on the board easily, paddling with confidence. Then it was my turn. I began by kneeling upon the board. Slowly, I tried hard to stand and immediately flew into the water. I climbed on it again, and again I flipped. I believe that adults have an advantage over children: New physical skills may seem to be more difficult to learn in life, but they can understand from their experience that falling is part of the process. They know as long as they keep trying, they can finally pick up the skill. I did learn how to ride a bike and I did learn how to swim after a lot of practice. And so, for many times, I climbed on the paddleboard, first slithering* upon my belly, then up on my knees and ending with the slow, unsteady ascent onto my feet until—yes!—I was standing upright. I even paddled four or five strokes before falling into the water again. I had never been so happy about the simple act of standing up.When I got home later that day, I made a full report of my partial success to my 20-year-old son, who in return threw a dubious look. He didn’t believe I could make it. But it doesn’t matter. I’m not learning to paddle board for him or anyone else. I’m learning because it’s fun and because I want to be one of the “statues” paddling on the lake happily. And maybe someone on the shore will point at me and say, “How does he do that?” I have already had my answer: Practice may not always make perfect, but it certainly makes possible. What we need to do is celebrate the little wins we’ve gained and often say to ourselves: You do a good job! So I am proud of myself!( )42. Why was the writer hesitant about learning stand-up paddleboarding?A. He feared he would get hurt.B. He didn’t like physical activities. C. He learned physical skills slowly. D. He thought it was too hard to learn.( )43. What can we learn from Paragraph 5?A. The writer wasn’t satisfied with himself.B. The writer had lots of useful life experience. C. The writer didn’t give up easily while learning.D. The writer wanted to set a good example to his son.( )44. The underlined word “dubious” probably means “______”.A. uncertain B. cold C. nervous D. sad45. Why is the writer proud of himself?

Now I’d like to tell you something about them. Chopsticks, a symbol of the Chinese culture, date back to the Shang Dynasty. At that time, they were used mainly for cooking. After the Han Dynasty, chopsticks were used for eating, and they were spread to other Asian countries. In the past, people used chopsticks made of trees or bamboo but nowadays we see many different kinds of them. There’re a few things you need to remember when using chopsticks. First, don’t drum your chopsticks against your bowl, the table, or any other surface. Second, it’s not polite to point at other people around the table with your chopsticks. This is considered extremely rude.By the way, don’t worry about using chopsticks. I can teach you. And it’s OK to use the spoon and the fork to eat in China. Yours,Li Hua
