24、As a man was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, he was surprised to see that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. It was clear that the elephants could easily break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not.

He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn’t run away. “Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.”

The man was surprised. These animals could at any time break free from their ropes but because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck(困在) right where they were.

Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before?

In December 1903, New York Times questioned the intelligence of the Wright brothers efforts to invent a machine that would fly. But one week later, at Kitty Hawk, the Wright Brothers took their famous flight.

Albert Einstein did not speak until he was four and did not read until he was seven. His teachers and even his parents thought he was very slow. And while he may have been a 'slow starter', I'm sure you'd agree that he was very successful in the end.

Failure is part of learning; we should never give up the struggle in life.

【1】Why do the elephants never try to break away from the ropes?

A. Because they are too young to do it.   B. Because the rope is very strong.

A. The trainer takes very good care of the big elephants.

B. The same size ropes can hold the big and small elephants.

C. The Wright brothers didn’t invent the first plane.

C. Training animals is interesting.   D. We should give up the struggle in life.

【5】What is the best title for this test?

25、Reading newspapers has become an i【1】 part of everyday life, Many people read newspapers as the f【2】 thing to do in the morning; others read newspapers as soon as they have free time during the day so that they learn what is h【3】 in the world.

Sometimes, however, we do not have e【4】 time to read all the news carefully, so we just take a quick look at the front page. At other times, we may be in such a h【5】 that we only have a few minutes to look at the names of the passages. Newspapers can be f【6】 everywhere in the world. We can get many different k【7】 of newspapers in big cities, of course, but in some of the mountain villages we can see f【8】 newspapers.

Some newspapers are published once a week, but m【9】 of the papers are published once a day with many pages, some even published twice a day! As you know different people enjoy r【10】 different papers.
