    Dragons can be friendly or fierce (凶狠), they can bring good luck or cause death, but one  thing is sure——people  talk about  them almost everywhere in the world.
    In Chinese culture, dragons are generous and wise, although  they can be unpredictable. The dragon was closely connected  to  the royal  family: the emperor's robes (礼袍) have a symbol of a gold dragon with five claws. According  to popular belief,  if you were born  in  the year of the dragon, you are intelligent, brave, and a natural leader.
    But in the west, dragons had a different reputation (名声). The very first text in English, the Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf, tells the story of a Scandinavian hero, Beowulf, who fights and kills a dangerous dragon but is himself killed in the fight. However, across the border in Wales, the red dragon which appears on the Welsh flag is a positive symbol, indicating strength and a sense of national identity.
    Why should  the dragon have a different character  in different parts of  the world? Some experts believe it is due to the animals that the myths grew out of.  In the west, the  idea of  the dragon probably came  from  the snake—an animal which people hated and were afraid of.
    But in China, the idea of the dragon may have come from  the alligator--a shy animal which lives in rivers, but which  is usually only seen when  there  is plenty of water--a good sign for agriculture(农业). So the Chinese dragon was a bringer of good fortune.

    小题2: 阅读填词，每空一词。
    In China, people think the dragon may have come from the ____ which is a shy animal. However, in the west, they think the dragon may come from the _____ that they hated and scared.

    出相关描述的英语单词或短语，每空至少一个。)
    Chinese dragons：_____________        Western dragons：___________.

    小题2:alligator, snake
    小题3:generous and wise /a bringer of good fortune, a positive symbol/a sense of national identity.

    试题分析：这篇文章主要讲了不同的国家对于龙有不同的看法。
    小题1:细节理解题。根据In Chinese culture, dragons are generous and wise, although  they can be unpredictable.可知答案是在中国文化中，龙虽然可能有无法预测性，但是它是慷慨无私和有智慧的。。
    小题2:细节理解题。根据in China,the idea of the dragon may have come from  the alligator龙可能来自鳄鱼 。In the west, the  idea of  the dragon probably came  from  the snake。在西方，人们认为龙来自蛇。可知应填alligator, snake。
    小题3:细节理解题。根据In Chinese culture, dragons are generous and wise, although  they can be unpredictable. 在中国文化中，龙虽然可能有无法预测性，但是它是慷慨无私和有智慧的。the red dragon which appears on the Welsh flag is a positive symbol, indicating strength and a sense of national identity.红色龙出现在威尔士旗是一个积极的象征,显示力量和民族身份的感觉。故填generous and wise /a bringer of good fortune, a positive symbol/a sense of national identity.。

    Though there are so many passages about positive thinking, few people really understand what it is. Being positive doesn’t mean ignoring (忽视) what is happening around us. If someone is going through problems or living in a difficult situation, we cannot expect him to ignore his problems and start thinking positively right away.
    It is easier to think positively when we are in a comfortable situation, rather than a bad situation. We cannot think positively when we have problems, unless we are trained to. No one can speak a foreign language before studying and practicing for some time. The same thing is true about being positive. However, saying that everything is going to be all right, smiling for no reason, or ignoring problems without trying to solve them, is not being positive. It is daydreaming.
    Positive people expect the best and believe that a bad situation will be improved, but they are also practical (明智的) people. They look for opportunities and solutions instead of doing nothing. They can improve a bad situation with a positive attitude. They can not only keep thinking of the problem that they face, but they can also refuse to let the problem affect their mind too much.
    Positive thinking is being hopeful, and hope brings light and happiness into our life. One can just live with a bad attitude, or one can try to do one’s best in a bad situation. It is a matter of choice.
    小题1: When we are in bad situation, it is ____ for us to think positively at once.
    A．harderB．easier
    C．quickerD．slower
    小题2: Which one of the following is being positive?
    A．Ignoring everything that we are facing.
    B．Doing nothing but thinking.
    C．Daydreaming all day.
    D．Trying to solve problems.
    小题3:Which of the following is NOT true, according to the passage?
    A．Being positive can be trained, like learning a language.
    B．Positive people can look for solutions in bad situations.
    C．Problems can have a bad influence on positive people.
    D．Positive thinking is helpful for everyone.

    Our village carpenter (木匠) , John, came one day and made a dining table for my wife. He made it just the right size for the space between the two windows. When I got home that evening, John was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill for the job.
    My wife said to me quietly,“That’s his ninth cup of tea today. ”But she said, in a loud voice,“It’s a beautiful table, dear, isn’t it？”
    “I’ll decide about that when I see the bill. ”I said.
    John laughed and gave me his bill for the work. I read:
    One dining table                        10 November, 1998
    Cost of wood                            $17. 00
    Paint                                   $1. 50
    Work, 8 hours ( $1 an hour )            $8. 00

    When I was looking at the bill, John said, “It’s been a nice day, hasn’t it？Quite sunny. ”
    “Yes. ”I said. “ I’m glad it’s only the tenth of November. ”
    “Me, too. ”said John. “You wait — it’ll be a lot colder by the end of the month. ”
    “Yes,colder — and more expensive! A dining table will be $20 more expensive on November 30, won’t it, John？”
    John looked hard at me for half a minute. Was there a little smile in his two blue eyes？I gave his bill back to him.
    “If there isn’t too much trouble, John,” I said,“please add it up again. You can forget the date…”
    I paid him $26. 50 and he was happy to get it.
