One grew up and became an alcoholic (酒鬼), while the other became a successful businessman. When asked why he became an alcoholic, the alcoholic replied, “Because my father was a drunk.” However, the successful businessman’s answer was also “Because my father was a drunk.” when asked why he succeeded. The same background. The same upbringing. However, the results were quite different. Why? The reason is that they had different choices. The brothers chose different thoughts which formed the situations they found ‎ themselves in at last, so they had different experiences.‎ There was a time in my life when I thought difficulty was due to “bad luck”. Have you ever heard the saying “When it rains, it pours”? That was my answer when others asked me how things were going on when I was in trouble. So what do you think I got? “RAIN”. More and more “RAIN”. I couldn’t understand why bad luck was always with me.‎ Pam Golden says, “You’re either living in the problem or you’re living in the solution.” Now, when I’m faced with what I used to think was a negative situation, I use a different way to think about it. I force myself to replace those negative thoughts that make me lose heart in my mind with positive thoughts which encourage me to fight against the difficulty bravely. Sometimes I write down some ideas that may be a solution, which I combine with the lessons I have learned from the bad situations and the difficulties that troubled me in the past, and often, I find a solution to the problem soon. It seems that I should thank the difficulty I met with. The RAIN that poured in my world has become great experiences that provide me with valuable experience, from which I can benefit.‎ Now, it doesn’t “rain” as much in my life as it used to. In fact, most days are beautiful, cloudless and sunny! Sometimes I do get a rain, but I think it makes me stronger just like the rain helps plants grow up. ‎ ‎5. The example of the twin brothers shows that ________.‎ A. making good choices is the most important B. education decides a person’s future C. upbringing makes a big difference D. it is luck that leads to success ‎6. What does “RAIN” mentioned in the second paragraph refer to?‎ A. Water. B. Good luck. C. Success. D. Difficulty.‎ ‎7. What is talked about in the third paragraph? ‎ A. How the author collects useful experience. ‎ B. How the author deals with difficulty now.‎ C. How the author gets help from others. ‎ D. How the author lives in the problem.‎ ‎8. Now, the author’s attitude towards “RAIN” is ________.‎ A. negative B. unclear C. positive D. unknown ‎ ‎ C ‎ Five years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said:”Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today - and 45minutes each day for the rest of the week.”‎ ‎ A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see what the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.‎ ‎ Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.‎ ‎ Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare,” But I’m just not creative.”‎ ‎ “Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”‎ ‎ “Oh, sure.”‎ ‎ “So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?”‎ ‎ “Nobody. I do it.”‎ ‎ “Really-at night, when you’re asleep?”‎ ‎ “Sure.”‎ ‎ “Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?”‎ ‎9. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________?‎ ‎ A. know more about the students B. make the lessons more exciting ‎ ‎ C. raise the students’ interest in art D. teach the students about toy design ‎10. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?‎ ‎ A. He liked to help his teacher. B. He preferred to study alone. ‎ ‎ C. He was active in class. D. He was imaginative.‎ ‎11. What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?‎ ‎ A. Mistake. B. Disadvantage. ‎ ‎ C. Difficulty. D. Burden.‎ ‎12. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?‎ ‎ A. To help them to see their creativity. ‎ ‎ B. To find out about their sleeping habits. ‎ C. To help them to improve their memory. ‎ D. To find out about their ways of thinking.‎ D ‎ Bissel is a small village of the West Sahara. It lies next to a l.5-square-kilometer oasis(绿洲), from where three days and nights are generally required to go out of the desert. However, before Ken Levin discovered it in 1926, none of the Bissel villagers had ever walked out of the desert. Reportedly, they were not unwilling to leave this barren land. Many had previously tried but failed, always somehow finding themselves back at the oasis after several days of trying to walk out.‎ ‎ When interviewed by Ken Levin, an expert at the British Royal College of Sciences, the villagers explained that no matter which direction they walked it always brought them back to the village. ‎ ‎ Why couldn’t the Bissel villagers walk out of the desert? Levin was very puzzled. He had, by himself, managed to walk north from the village and reach the ‎ nearest town in three and a half days. He decided to carry out an experiment to solve the mystery. He and a Bissel villager called Argutel, would walk out of the desert together. They prepared enough water for a half-a-month journey and two camels. But this time Ken Levin didn't bring his compass. Levin would follow Argutel. ‎ ‎ Ten days later, they had walked for about 500 miles but were still in the desert. On the 11th morning, an oasis came into their view. They were back at Bissel. Levin now understood why the Bissel people couldn’t escape the desert. They had no knowledge of the North Star, which had for centuries provided sailors and other travelers with a point of direction. In the desert, if a person goes forward relying only on their senses, they will not be able to travel in a straight line. Rather they will travel in a very large circle and eventually track back to where they began. Levin explained to Argutel the function of the North Star and said, “As long as you rest in the daytime and walk towards the brightest star at night, you would be able to walk out of the desert.” Argutel did as he was told. Three days later, he came to the edge of the desert. ‎ ‎ Now in the West Sahara, Bissel has become a bright pearl, where tens of thousands of tourists come every year. Argutel’s bronze statue stands in the center of the town. On its base are the words: ___________.‎ ‎13. Villagers in Bissel had never walked beyond the desert because ________. ‎ ‎ A. they were discouraged by their failures ‎ ‎ B. they had a fear of the outside world ‎ ‎ C. they had no desire to leave the oasis ‎ ‎ D. they had no method to find their way out ‎ ‎14. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.‎ ‎ A. the use of a compass was necessary to walk out of the desert ‎ B. tourism in Bissel has been greatly developed and improved ‎ C. Argutel became the leader of Bissel after his return ‎ D. Ken Levin didn’t walk south because it would take more days ‎ ‎15. Which of the following can most probably be found at the base of Argutel’s statue? ‎ ‎ A. Where there is a will, there is a way.‎ ‎ B. A long journey starts with the first step ‎ ‎ C. A new life starts from the fixed direction.‎ ‎ D. Two heads are better than one. ‎ 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ How to make friends at a new school ‎ Starting with a new school can be difficult. Everything seems to be different, and you don’t even know where to go for your own classes. 16 However, if you use these skills, you can quickly turn some of those strangers into friends.‎ Be yourself.‎ ‎ 17 If some people don’t accept you, they’re not the kind of friends you need. People often stay together because they have similar interests. For example, someone who does a lot of sport may make friends with those who also run or swim a lot.‎ ‎ 18 ‎ ‎ Remember to be nice to the people you meet at your new school. If you think that you will say something that may make them feel sad, do not say anything and just nod your head if they talk to you. Also, remember to be as helpful as possible!‎ Believe in yourself.‎ ‎ A smile goes a long way. When you walk in the halls, don’t keep your eyes on the floor. Raise your head and make eye contact with other people . 19 Introduce yourself. Tell them your name and where you’re from.‎ Remember people’s names ‎ You like it when people use your name, and so do other people. 20 Besides, ask them in a kind way if they have a nickname. You’d be surprised how often this might come in handy.‎ A. Be friendly to others.‎ B. Making new friends can be hard, too.‎ A. Join after-school activities you like.‎ B. Never change who you are to try and fit in ‎ C. If you see someone you know, smile or say “Hi”.‎ D. People may become angry if you just begin by saying “Hey” each time.‎ G. Don’t sit at the back of the classroom where other people don’t notice you! ‎ 第二部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ My daughter has been crazy about raising a pet for a long time.      Last spring I bought two newly-hatched chickens for her.
