24、Success by failure

I had failed again. It was the day of the big marathon. I had decided three years ago to train for the half-marathon event and take home a medal. There I sat, in front of my TV, while I watched others cross the finish line. It was just another in a long string(串) of failures. I had never met a single weight loss or fitness goal and I was majoring in the art of failing.

We are a family of exploration and often plan active vacations. It seemed that on every vacation I was the one who couldn’t go the distance. Each time I urged(催促) my family, “Go on without me. Bring me lots of pictures and videos. I’ll be fine just sitting here taking in the view.” I lied. Sick of being left behind, I decided that it would never happen again. Sure I was in my 50s, but surely there was still hope for me. I always spent weeks walking to prepare for our active vacations. I had lost weight many times. I just always seemed to fail to get where I needed to be.

But this time I would do something different. I was going to walk a half marathon. Surely I would lose weight and get in sharp if I could complete over 12 miles in four hours. Besides, this would be training. Training sounded cooler than diet and exercise. I was revved up and ready to go. I bought the proper gear(装备)，checked out what type of drinks would be handed out at the marathon and prepared a lot. I had a plan！

Now two years later, there I sat, watching thousands of people of all ages succeed where I had failed. I walked out, angry with myself, sat down and had myself a pity party. I was a master at the art of pity parties, having a great deal of experience in holding them. What was my problem? Where was I going wrong? I stopped and considered each failure, one by one. I made some very interesting discoveries.

I had failed to climb to the top of that Mayan pyramid, but I did climb it and stood on those ancient stones. I had failed to meet a single weight loss goal and yet I had lost 43 pounds. I couldn’t walk 12 miles in four hours, but I could walk 12 miles.

All my failures were sounding like a success story. This time I was giving thanks. I was thankful that I had been given the spirit of failure because failure meant that I was trying, that I didn’t give up. I decided that I would be crossing the finish line next year.

25、   "All right, everyone, listen up!" said Rey."I have something important to say."

Rey had always had something important to say since the first day of primary school. "This is really a big project," said Rey. "Trust me.As long as I'm in charge, we'll have the most wonderful project ever!"

"It seems like Rey is always in charge," murmured(小声说)Jake.

It was true. Rey always seemed to he in charge of everything. He wanted everything to be as perfect as possible, and he just believed that he was the only person who could make that happen.

This time, Rey decided to do a play about the Wright brothers and the first airplane flight. He announced that he would be the director, and he had also decided on the role that everyone would play. He would play the part of Orville Wright. He even had made the costumes, which Hannah would like to do.

The next day, Rey announced he was going to play Wilbur Wright.

"How can you play both of the Wright brothers?" asked Hannah.

"I'll just put on different hats for each one," said Rey.

The next afternoon, no one showed up at the rehearsal (排练) except Rey. An hour had passed, and he still hadn't heard from others.

Finally, Rey called Stephen. "I quit the play," said Stephen. "In fact, we all quit. We're going to do something else."

Rey spent the rest of the afternoon working on the play. Moving the set himself took too long, and running around to change costumes left him out of breath. Worst of all, half the airplane dragged on the ground as Rey pulled it across the stage. Rey felt upset and confused.

He knew now that he couldn't do the play alone. He needed his friends' help if it was going to work at all.

The next day at school, Rey had a talk with his friends, "I'm going to change. I promise I will listen to you. What do you want to do?

"Hannah thought the play should he shorter and Jake wanted to make a new airplane that would be easier to handle. Stephen thought everyone should get a chance to play a real part like Wilbur Wright. Fern wanted to be able to act her part the way she wanted.

"You are probably right," Rey said. "Let's try it your way.

Everyone smiled.

26、A new report says promising children money to pass exams does not help their exam grades. It could be a waste of money using cash to get kids to study more. However, the promise of a trip could encourage students to try harder and do better at school. Scientists looked at how promises of money and tickets to shows affected students’ studying and learning. Over 10, 000 pupils took part in the survey in 2016. There was an improvement in homework, but this did not result in better test scores.

Lead researcher Dr Simon Burgess thought the survey showed something important and interesting. He said it had not found something that really got students to work harder. He added that, “Clearly, some pupils have a lot of goals and believe that education is very important in life, but there are kids who think that working hard doesn’t make a difference. He said these children think exam success is “all in your genes（基因）” because of their family background.

Education expert Dr Kevan Collins said good teachers were better than promises of rewards to get children to study, especially for children from low-income families. He wrote, “What really makes difference is how students are taught.”

【1】According to the report, we can know that _________.

A．promising children money isn’t helpful for their exam grades

B．promising children a trip doesn’t encourage them to study harder

C．promising children tickets to shows doesn’t encourage them to do homework

D．promising children money doesn’t encourage them to do homework

【2】What does the underlined word “affected” mean in Chinese?

A．有利

B．有弊

C．影响

D．抑制

【3】Which of the following is TRUE?

A．The survey shows something that gets students to really work harder.

B．Some students think education is very important in their life.

C．Some kids work harder if they think they don’t have good genes.

D．The survey shows that education is not so important in life.

【4】Dr Kevan Collins thinks _________ really make(s) a difference in kids’ study.

A．promising money

B．promising a trip

C．promising tickets to shows

D．good teachers

【5】If a kid thinks genes are the most important, he may agree _________.

A．good teachers make the difference

B．money makes the difference

C．working hard makes the difference

D．family background makes the difference

27、When I was in college, I remember hearing about a book titled “Looking Out for Number One”. I never read the book, but the title has always stuck with me. I think it was because the title turned me off. I hadn’t been taught to be so selfish that I should be focused on only me . I thought I needed to be helping others and, along the way, I would also be helping myself. Now, I realize I should have at least considered learning more about looking out for number one.

Over 30 years after seeing the book about looking out for number one I’m realizing number one, me, is the person I should be concerned about first. Jeffrey Gitomer asks the question, “Who is the most important person in the world?” Most people answer, the customer. He then asks, if there were only two people left in the world, the customer and you, who would you want to survive ? Now the answer is me.

It makes me sense that if we can’t help ourselves first, we will never be prepared to help others. We all need to learn to control our lives and make the best decisions for ourselves. That will put us in a position to help others in the future . But many of us are slow to understand this.

It has been said that happiness will bring success, but success doesn’t always bring happiness. We all want to be happy and successful. For some of us can be very happy when our basic needs are met and our family are safe. Others will seek high levels of success thinking that will bring happiness. I’m sure we can think of a person who is very successful, according to the world’s standards (标准), but they don’t appear to be happy at all. This is because they have been so busy working for somebody else’s goals that they haven’t considered their own needs.

【1】Who does the writer think is the most important person in the world now?

A. Others B. Himself

C. The customer   D. Jeffrey Gitomer

【2】The underlined words“ turned me off” in Paragraph 1 probably mean “________”.

A. made me excited  B. made me bored

C. made me surprised D. made me pleased

【3】From the third paragraph we can learn ________.

A. we should help others instead of ourselves

B. we need help others make the best decisions

C. helping others can help control our lives

D. actually few of us understand this idea earlier

【4】 Why do some successful people not feel happy at all?

A. Because they don’t believe success always brings happiness.

B. Because their basic needs are not completely met.

C .Because they seek for too high levels of success.

D. Because they haven’t been working for their own goals.

【5】 The best title for the passage is “______________”.

A. Considering Our Own Needs First

B. The Most Important in the World

C. Helping Others First

D. Happiness and Success

28、People have always tried hard to invent useful things. They know well that nothing is p【1】 without careful observation（观察）and hard work. Now inventions can be s【2】 here and there in our life. They can be invented by a single person o【3】 in group work. Some new things are invented by chance（偶然地）, but o【4】 are not. People get new ideas from earlier things.

The new and surprising things show technology has really c【5】 our life a lot. For example, with nanotechnology（纳米技术）, we can build what we want b【6】 everything is made up of with atoms.

We c【7】 make clothes that are free from dirty marks. We can own cellphone batteries that can last f【8】 100 days. We will have better medicine. The possible uses of nanotechnology are too m【9】 to count. Maybe in the near f【10】 , our life will become more convenient. Do you think so?

29、   A few days ago, I sat in the sofa watching TV. Just then I got a_______from a friend of mine. I hadn’t seen him_______a very long time. We talked about our school days on the phone. Then he started talking about his_______.

His mother was badly ill in hospital. She couldn’t sleep at night and often_______to herself. My friend was angry_______her and asked his mother to stop_______.Since then，his mother didn’t say anything. The doctor said she had a kind of mental disease（心理疾病）, she couldn’t look after herself like a normal person. My friend was very sad. He thought it was his fault. My friend_______like a baby on the phone. He said that he could do_______if his mother could be better.

Do you know_______our parents love us and care for us all the time? I think we should________love our parents and take care of them. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!
