24、 When I was younger, I wished for a Porsche and a big house. That was my idea of success. I took all the advanced classes possible and took the exams with my mind set on going to a key school. I just knew that I would somehow become famous and be able to afford that car and the dream house. All the way through junior year, my mind was planning this beautiful future.
Then in the eleventh grade, many losses changed my mind. First, one of my friends died at the age of 16. Soon after, my great-grandmother passed away, and on the same day, my beloved fourth-grade teacher. They left me not knowing what to do or where to go. Death had never touched me so closely.
After a long period of emptiness, it finally struck me; life is not promised and neither is my future success. While I was going through the actions in an attempt to achieve material success, I was not enjoying my daily life. I was just existing. I realized that life has more purposes than getting materials, which will only be yours until you can no longer keep up with the payments. I realized that finding inner peace, purpose and happiness will stick with you forever and that is real success.
Enjoying life's great changes makes a person more successful than a wealthy person who is not satisfied and takes everything for granted(把……当成理所当然). The summer before senior year, my attitude changed greatly. Instead of memorizing facts, I began learning information. Instead of focusing on the future, I focused on today and the successes that come with it.
I still make excellent grades, but now I spared weeks to studying instead of preparing for exams, and I think about the future with a deeper sense of meaning. Success, just like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder(旁观者). For me, being successful means truly living life each day, being thankful, and affecting the world.
【1】The main idea of the first paragraph is ________.
A.the writer drew a beautiful picture for his future

【3】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A.People can truly enjoy daily life by trying to achieve material success.
B.Success can only be measured with a Porsche and a big house.
C.People should concentrate on today and success will follow afterwards.
D.The pursuit of inner peace, purpose and happiness is a real success.
【4】The fact that changed the writer’s attitude towards life was that _________.
A.he couldn’t afford a Porsche and a big house
B.some of his loved persons passed away
C.he wanted to enjoy his life’s great changes
D.it was too difficult for him to get good grades
【5】The purpose of the writer is probably to ________.
A.advise us to have a correct attitude towards success
B.inspire us to lead an active life each day

D.advise us to work hard to achieve our success
25、A Discussion
Host: Hello! I’m Gavin from All Talk 970 FM. Welcome to our program. Today our topic is part-time jobs. Are they good for school children or not?
Headmaster: Certainly not. Children have got two full-time jobs already: growing-up and going to school. Part-time jobs make them so tired that they fall asleep in classes.
Mrs. Black: I agree. I know school hours are short, and there’s a lot of homework to do, too. Children need enough sleep.
Mr. Black: Young children perhaps, except some boys, stay at school until they’re eighteen or nineteen. A part-time job can’t harm them. In fact , it’s good for them. They can earn pocket-money by themselves. And they can see something of the world outside school.
Businessman: You’re quite right. Boys learn a lot from a part-time job. And we shouldn’t forget that some families need the extra money. If the students don’t take part-time jobs, they can’t stay at school.

26、Marco Polo was from Venice, Italy. In 1271, at age 17, Marco went on a trip with his father and uncle to China. Today people often travel to different places around the world. But it was very hard for people from Europe to visit China then. After three and a half years, the Polos reached China on 1275.
While he was there, Marco Polo worked for Kublai Khan, the emperor(皇帝)of China. He was able to learn and experience many things that were new to Europeans. In his diary, he wrote, “Kublai Khan’s palace is the greatest I’ve ever seen. The streets of the new capital, Daidu, are so straight and so wide.” Paper money also took him by surprise, since it was not yet in use in the West at that time. Homes were heated with “black stones... which burn like wood.” These stones were coal, and most of the Europeans knew little about it then.
After 17 years in China, Marco and his family finally returned to Venice in 1292. After he returned home, Marco completed a book about his trip, full of facts about his wonderful experiences in China.

27、 Many people say that the United States is a paradise for the children, a struggling field for the youth and a tomb for the aged. However, the situation is quite different in Australia. Different people have their own ways for enjoyment and their own worlds of pastime.
Most children often work hard in school since they have to face various exams. After school they do not want to confine themselves to books any more. Instead, they put aside their schoolbags at home and sneak quickly to some quiet street comers for their games. Bigger children like to shoulder their large kites to some steep cliffs, and jump to fly in the sky with their kites.
Some old people often get up early in the morning and go to parks to do newspaper reading. After breakfast, they come to horse races, dog races and sometimes car races for betting. If he wins, he will feed himself a good dinner. In the evening, they stay at home, watching TV sometimes with grandchildren. Some of the aged also enjoy fishing and gardening.
Young people prefer to go outing for holidays. At the weekends, they go to the seashore for swimming or to the forest for hunting and camping, or mountainous areas for picnicking. Then in the evenings on Sundays, they start their long bumper-to-bumper drive back on the highways. Nobody seems in a hurry.
The Australian government also encourages its people to have more relaxation after work. Sometimes, certain kind of financial help is distributed to people going on holidays and public holidays are purposely set on Monday or Friday so that Australians may have a longer weekend for enjoyment. They think people can work better only after they get a full relaxation. And it grows out of this idea that relaxation comes the top priority(优先权)for enjoyment in Australia.
