• 3．How to Be a Winner Sir Steven Redgrave
     Winner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals
     "In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes（糖尿?。?Believing my career was over，I felt extremely low.Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing.That was the encouragement I needed.I could still be a winner if I believed in myself.I am not saying that it isn't difficult sometimes.But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn't finished yet.Nothing is to stand in my way."
     Karen Pickering
     Swimming World Champion
     "I swim 4 hours a day，6 days a week.I manage that sort of workload by putting it on top of my diary.This is the key to success —you can't follow a career in any field without being well-organized.List what you believe you can achieve.Trust yourself，write down your goals for the day，however small they are，and you'll be a step closer to achieving them."
     Kirsten Best
     Poet & Writer
     "When things are getting hard，a voice inside my head tells me that I can't achieve something.Then there are other distractions，such as family or hobbies.The key is to concentrate.When I feel tense，it helps a lot to repeat words such as 'calm'，'peace' or 'focus'，either out loud or silently in my mind.It makes me feel more in control and increases my confidence.This is a habit that can become second nature quite easily and is a powerful psychological（心理的）tool."

• 5．For quite some time I have had an interest in the situation of the homeless.I have read about it，prayed over it，and have done small things to help.But feeling that I could，and should do more to make a difference，I concluded that living as a homeless man -- at least for a very brief period -- was the best way to understand what it's like to have no place to call home.
      I decided that St.Vincent de Paul Catholic Church would be my first stop.Since the church opens its basement to homeless people every Friday for a hot meal St.Vincent's was symbolically a very good place to start my day as a homeless man.
     After praying before the Blessed Sacrament，I hit the subfreezing streets with no money.I got into a line of men，women and children waiting to be admitted into the dining room where a free hot meal is served every day.
     From there I walked to Health Care for the Homeless -- an organization dedicated to providing free medical care to people who have no permanent residence.Inside were about 75 homeless women and men waiting to be seen by a nurse.There I spoke with an older man who had serious family problems that caused his homelessness.
     Next，I stopped at a hotel and fast-food restaurant asking if they were hiring.From there I walked the streets of downtown Baltimore asking people for a little loose change to buy a cup of coffee.I politely approached approximately 35 people.About 30 of them ignored me，and said they didn't have any money，or simply said no.But five people did offer me a small donation.I explained what I was doing，and thankfully declined their generosity.
     Later that night，as I walked back to my vehicle，I realized that I was a richer person for having lived one day as a homeless man.I thought about the homeless men and women I encountered，and their problems.
  
  （1）Why did the author decide to make a start from the church？

  
  A．Only it offered the homeless a hot meal.
  B．It impressed the author in many ways.
  C．It had a routine of opening to the homeless.
  D．Many homeless people were allowed to live in the basement.
  （2）What did the author do while he was in Health Care for the Homeless？

  
  A．He had a word with a homeless man.
  B．He helped an older man with family problems.
  C．He knew it was too miserable to have no money.
  D．He had a hot meal with some women and children.
  （3）What can we infer from the fifth paragraph？

  
  A．The author worked a few hours in the restaurant.
  B．People should have cared about the homeless more.
  C．No food restaurants agreed to hire a homeless man.
  D．Very few people looked down upon the homeless.
  （4）What would the author most probably do in the future？

  
  A．He would treasure what he had got in life.
  B．He would spend more time with the homeless.
  C．He would find a better way to help the homeless.
  D．He would frequently invite the homeless to his home.

• 6．When I was 27 years old，I went to teach seventh graders math.And like any teacher，I made quizzes and tests.I gave out homework assignments.When the work came back，I calculated grades.What struck me was that IQ was not the only difference between my best and my worst students.Some of my strongest performers did not have high IQ scores.Some of my smartest kids weren't doing so well.And that got me thinking.
     After several more years of teaching，I came to the conclusion that what we need in education is a much better understanding of students and learning from a motivational perspective，from a psychological perspective.In education，the one thing we know how to measure best is IQ.But what if doing well in school and in life depends on much more than your ability to learn quickly and easily？
     So I started studying kids and adults in all kinds of super challenging settings，and in every study my question was，who is successful here and why？I studied new teachers working in really tough neighborhoods，asking which will be the most effective at improving learning outcomes for their students？As a result，it wasn't good looks，physical health，and it wasn't IQ.It was grit（毅力）.Grit is working really hard to make your future a reality.Grit is living life like it's a marathon.
     To me，the most shocking thing about grit is how little we know，how little science knows，about building it.Every day，parents and teachers ask me， "How do I build grit in kids？What do I do to teach kids a solid work ethic？How do I keep them motivated for the long run？" The honest answer is，I don't know.
     What I do know is that talent doesn't make you gritty.In fact，in our data，grit is usually unrelated or even inversely related to measures of talent.In other words，we need to be gritty about getting our kids grittier.
  
  （1）In writing paragraph 1，the author aims to

  .
  A．make a comparison
  B．give a definition
  C．reach a conclusion
  D．lead in a topic
  （2）What can we learn from paragraph 2？

  
  A．IQ decides your study performance.
  B．Grit has nothing to do with your IQ.
  C．Lack of talent is no reason for taking no action.
  D．We should study further on students and learning.
  （3）What made the author most astonished about grit？

  
  A．Parents and teachers often ignore it.
  B．We have little knowledge about it.
  C．Schools focus more about it than families.
  D．How he keeps students motivated for the long run.
  （4）Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text？

  
  A．The Key to Success
  B．Brave Minds Never Feel Down
  C．Reflections on School Education
  D．Failure Is the Mother of Success

• 7．Here are some top tips for world travelers.
     Travel light.（1）

  It's no fun carrying a huge bag around a foreign city.Don't take too many clothes and avoid heavy books and electrical equipment.
     （2）

  Always keep your passport on you in an inside pocket or special travel belt.There may be thieves about.It's a good idea to make a photocopy（復(fù)印件）of your passport and travel documents.
     Transport sense.Don't let go of your bags on the train.（3）

  There are always thieves on public transport.If you want to sleep，tie your bag to your arm.When you take a taxi，it's a good idea to ask for the driver's permit.Many foreigners pay too much money because they take unofficial taxis.
     Keep clean.It's a good idea to wear dark clothes because they hide the dirt while white clothes attract it!Make sure you have plenty of clean underclothes and deodorant（除臭劑）.（4）

  
     （5）

  You should always be polite and respectful towards the locals.Even if you find their habits and behaviour a bit strange，you shouldn't show your feelings.Remember，you're their guest.
  
  A.Be polite.
  B.Keep your documents safe.
  C.You should carry a spare bag.
  D.You don't want to smell bad!
  E.Keep them with you at all times.
