When I was 13，my family moved away.Mary and I kept in touch through letters and we saw each other on special occasions—like my wedding and Mary's.Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often.One day a card that I sent came back, stamped “Address Unknown”． Over the years, I thought of Mary often.I wanted to share stories of my children and then grandchildren.And I need to share my sorrow when my brother and then my mother died.There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Mary could fill. One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a picture of a young woman who looked a lot like Mary and whose last name was Wagman—Mary's married name.“There must be thousands of Wagmans，” I thought, but I wrote to her anyway. She called as soon as she got my letter.“Mrs.Tobin！” she said excitedly, “Mary Allen Wagman is my mother.” Minutes later I heard a voice that I recognized at once, even after 40 years.We laughed and cried and asked about each other's lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled, and there is one thing that Mary and 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 9 I know for sure: We won't lose each other again! 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。主要讲述了作者与 Mary 的友情。 38．I want to find Mary ________． A．to share my stories B．to share my sorrow C．to fill the empty in my heart D．all of the above D [细节理解题。文章第三段主要讲述的是在与 Mary 失去联系后，作者时常想起她， 想和她分享自己孩子和孙子的故事；在母亲和哥哥去世时，想和她分享自己的悲伤。并且讲 到在作者的内心深处一直有个地方为一个像 Mary 这样的朋友虚席以待。故正确答案为 D。] 39．Which of the following is TRUE?

As professionally mature physical educators, health educators, and recreation specialists we must try to structure play situations that will explain impulses, 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 10 feelings, and fantasies.Games and sports often become substitute responses which redirect behaviour.Hambridge illustrates how structured play therapy(疗法) enables child and therapist(治疗师) to bring energy to bear where it will count.The therapist acts to focus attention, to excite further activity, to give approval, to gain information, or to set limits.The structured play situation is used as a stimulus(刺 激物) to enable the independent, creative free play of the child in treatment. In tracing the evolution of play therapy, Lebo concludes that if play therapy had developed solely from the theoretical explanations of play it would be used to educate children to play properly. Bernstein insists that play is a natural means of expression for the child and can be clinically useful in diagnosis (诊断), therapy, and research.Play may reduce anxiety in children and be helpful in evaluating the need for mental help. Cox in studying sociometric status and individual adjustment before and after play therapy, found that sociometric status was shown to be an effective index of adjustment for a group of 52 orphans, aged 5 to 13 years.The findings supported the theory that the sociometric status is a sensitive and valid index of behavioural change. Chittenden used play situations as a means of helping children get a better understanding of their own problems and as a means of finding whether they gained in understanding.Play was used also as a means of direct teaching of manners and techniques that would help children to avoid quarrels. Shaw found that an inconsistent or conflicting environment holds back the development of socially approved behaviour.He showed quite dramatically the influence of the group, or small part of society and its mores, upon the attitude and behaviour of individuals. Wattenberg noted that in any group of criminals, the first signs of behaviour difficulties appear in later childhood, often before the age of ten.For eleven year olds, poor school performance and gang activities are strongly related. Frustrations met in school may have led to hostile feelings which were expressed in destruction of property or fighting.The author suggests that for those who failed in efforts to earn social recognition in sports or scholarship, daring_deeds of theft may have been compensation. 本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了孩子的一些反社会行为的表现、形成原因以及应对措施 等。 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 11 41．How can a therapist treat a child who shows signs of antisocial behavior? A．By designing proper sports or play situations. B．By explaining impulses, feelings and fantasies. C．By enabling independent and creative free play. D．By clinically diagnosing and researching. A [细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知，设计适当的游戏或运动形式，或制定相关的规 则，可以有效治疗孩子的反社会行为。故选 A。] 42．Who might agree that if a child plays freely he may feel less worried? A．Lebo. B．Bernstein. C．Cox. D．Chittenden. B [细节理解题。由文章第四段最后一句可知，Bernstein 认为孩子的自由玩耍可以降 低焦虑。worried 意为“烦扰的，担忧的”。根据第三段可知 Lebo 认为理论上讲游戏疗法 可以教育孩子合理玩耍；根据第五段可知 Cox 发现社会身份对孩子行为变化有影响；根据第 六段可知 Chittenden 用游戏情境帮助孩子理解自身问题并引导孩子以恰当的行为技巧来避 免争吵。所以 A、C、D 三项排除。] 43．We can infer from the passage that Shaw focuses on the effect of ________ on children. A．gang activities B．misunderstanding C．poor school performance D．peer pressure D [推理判断题。文章倒数第三段阐述了 Shaw 的观点：群体对个人行为有极大的影响。 因此 D(同辈压力)符合。] 44．The underlined words “daring deeds” in the last paragraph most probably refer to “________”． A．improper behavior B．brave action C．helpful thought D．extreme sports A [词义猜测题。由画线词后面的 of theft 可知，这里“大胆的行为”是指“不恰当 的行为”。] D I recently read a newspaper article about an 8－year－old boy who found an envelope containing more than $600 and returned it to the bank whose name appeared on the envelope.The bank traced the money to its owner and returned it to him.All is right with the world.Right? Wrong. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 12 As a reward, the man who lost the money gave the boy $3.Not a lot, but a symbol of his appreciation nonetheless and not compulsory.After all, returning money should not be considered extraordinary.A simple “thank you” is adequate.But some of the teachers at the boy's school felt a reward was not only appropriate, but also required.Outraged at the apparent stinginess of the person who lost the cash, these teachers took up a collection for the boy.About a week or so later, they presented the boy with a $150 check, explaining they felt his honesty should be praised and advocated.Evidently the virtues of honesty and kindness have become commodities that, like everything else, are subject to inflation. What does this absurd episode say about our society? It seems the role models our children look up to these days—in this case, teachers—are more confused about values than their young charges.A young boy, obviously well guided by his parents, finds money that does not belong to him and he returns it.He did the right thing.Yet doing the right thing seems to be insufficient incentive (刺激) for action in our modern world.The greed of the 1980s has left us with the ever－present question: what's in it for me? The promise of the golden rule—that someone might do a good turn for you someday—merits only scorn(讥笑) in the materialistic and fast－paced society of the 1990s.In fact, it is this fast pace that worsens the problem.Modern communications have pushed us into an instant world.With the world racing by us, we have no patience to wait for someone to pay dividends for our good deeds.Immoral virtues are running out of control in our culture. As a society, we seem to be on the point of losing our internal control—the ethical boundaries that guide our actions and feelings.Instead, our_ethical_standards_have_been_eclipsed_by__external_ “ stuff”_as_a_measure_of_our_worth ． We pass this obscene message on to our children.We offer them money for learning how to convert fractions to decimals.Refreshments are given as a reward for reading.In fact, in one national reading program, a party awaits the entire class if each child reads a certain number of books within a four－month period.We call these things incentives, telling ourselves that if we can just reel them in and get them hooked, then the internal rewards will follow.I recently saw a television program where school－age children were featured as the participants in a program that offers a $10 a week “incentive” if they do not try to run away from school again.Isn't the daily dilemma of wandering around on the streets, hungry and thirsty, enough to discourage them 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 13 from running away again? No, it isn't, because we as a society won't allow it to be.Nothing is permitted to succeed or fail on its own merits anymore. The simple virtues of honesty, kindness and integrity suffer from an image problem and are in desperate need of better publicity(宣扬)．One way to do this is by example.If my son sees me feeling happy after I've helped a friend clean her basement, then he may do likewise.If my daughter sees me spending a rainy afternoon baking a pumpkin pie instead of spending money at the mall, she may get the message that there are some simple pleasures that don't require a purchase.I fear that in our so－called upwardly mobile world we are on a downward spiral towards becoming morally bankrupt.We may soon make ourselves worthless inside, while desperately clinging to a shell of appearances. 本文是一篇议论文。作者由一个八岁男孩拾金不昧的故事对价值观念展开了探讨，目的 是要让我们明白：金钱买不来道德。 45．What does the underlined word “stinginess” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Being greedy for profits. B．Being seen as ridiculous. C．Being indifferent to others. D．Being reluctant to spend money. D [词义猜测题。根据画线词的前一句到这一段的最后一句可以猜出 stinginess 的词 为不愿意花钱与 D 项所述相同。] 46．Teachers raising money for the boys are those who ________． A．believe virtue should not get rewarded B．think an adequate reward is not a must C．are at a loss as to values and goods D．get angry that honesty gets no rewards C [细节理解题。根据第三段第二句内容可知答案 C。] 47．Which of the following is TRUE about people's values in the 1980s and the 1990s? A. Doers of good deeds in the 1990s would get teased. B．Many people in the 1990s were anxious to get rewarded for doing good deeds. C．The internal control in the 1980s caused a serious ethical problem. D．People in the 1980s deserved more of wealth than what was necessary. B [推理判断题。第三段第六句中提到，早在 20 世纪 80 年代，人性中贪婪的一面就给 我们留下了至今都会有人提出的问题：我能从做好事中得到什么？结合下句中的 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 14 materialistic 一词可知，B 项说法更接近当时人们的价值观。] 48．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Our deciding internal factors have lost their grounds. B．External incentives have corrupted our ethical standards. C．Wealth has become the only measure of our ethical standards. D．Ethical standards guiding our actions and feelings have changed. B [句意理解题。根据画线句及该段的后文内容可知答案为 B。] 49．What can be inferred from the passage? A. The author passes positive energy to society. B．School－age children remain at school for a reward. C．The more we award children, the more they will learn. D．The author does his part to set an example to the two children. A [推理判断题。通读全文可以推出答案为 A。B 选项表述错误，C 选项明显与文章主 题不符合，D 选项是事实，不是推理出来的。] 50．What is the author's understanding of publicity for virtues? A. Moral values are bound to get improved in the future. B．Virtues are suffering from an image problem currently. C．Images of virtues badly need to be promoted by example. D．We'll climb up the social ladder consistent with moral worth. C [推理判断题。最后一段第二句“One way to do this is by example.”意为“做 这件事的一个方法就是以身作则。”故答案为 C。] Ⅳ.任务型阅读 Blind spots refer to the aspects of ourselves we aren't fully conscious of.This can refer to a broad range of different things—our traits, values, actions, idiosyncrasies, habits, feelings, thoughts, etc. To know your blind spots is a necessary part of your personal growth.Identifying our blind spots and understanding them heightens our level of self－awareness.When we develop a greater self－awareness, it puts us in greater alignment with our higher selves and who we are meant to be.The net result is a speedier progression toward achieving your own level of greatness. Blind spots aren't necessarily negative traits or weaknesses, though they usually are.When you are oblivious to something, there is a high likelihood that you have never worked on it before, which leaves an opportunity for improvement it is acting as an invisible boundary that limits your experience in your life.When 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 15 you uncover your blind spots and actively work on them, you start becoming more conscious as an individual, of your strengths and opportunity areas, the boundaries you operate within.In my pursuit toward my highest level of personal growth, uncovering my blind spots is a constant interest of mine.I'm always on the lookout of situations when I feel resistance or when my consciousness is lowered.On my blog, I open myself to all feedback I receive from readers, whether positive or negative (if any)．During my 1－1 coaching in the past, I would encourage my coaches to provide feedback to help improve the experience of the coaching sessions and enable me to be a better coach to them. Whenever I discover a blind spot and actively address on them, it evolves me into a better person.Over the years, I've constantly sought to uncover and iron out blind spots within me.The person I've become today and the person I was in the past are quite different, and it wasn't through luck or accident.It was through conscious desire and work.For example, in the past, my neurotic perfectionism often resulted in myopia and ineffectiveness, which hindered me from achieving greater results.It also led me to become an aggressive person who was bossy.My emotional stinginess also made me a selfish person.All these blocked me from being the person I saw myself to be.It was through conscious work on these blind spots that made me a better person today. Just like growth is a life－long journey，the process of uncovering blind spots never ends too.With every blind spot we identify and tackle, there is always a next blind spot to uncover.Due to the infinite vastness of our mind, it is impossible to identify every single blind spot within us at this current moment.

From where I stand, volunteering in community service is beneficial to us.For one thing, when doing community service, students become aware of the needs of others and care about them, instead of thinking only about their own interests.For another, students also learn sense of responsibility, problem solving and team spirit which are needed in real life. If I participate in community service, I would like to set up a sports center, where teenagers can exercise and make friends. 【导学号：57732091】
