    Time is very important in our lives. It organizes our everyday moments. However, time never had any importance in my life until I received a watch from my father.
    I received this gift on a cloudy day. I had to go to the airport at 9:00 a.m. to meet my uncle and take him to my father’s house. However, I was late because I was staying with my friends. Later on that day, around 11:00 a.m., I remembered my uncle, but I was very late for him. He had left the airport and taken a taxi to my father’s house.
    I got to my father’s house at 2:00 p.m. and felt ashamed of myself at that moment. After I said “hello” to my angry father and tired uncle, my father asked me to sit next to him and gave me this watch. Then he said, “Essa, did you have fun with your friends today?”
    “Yes, Dad, and I’m sorry about not meeting my uncle at the airport.”
    “I hope today you learned something important, and this watch will be a reminder (提醒物) for you.” He told me to take this watch and use it as an organizer of my life.
    I learned a very important lesson from my father: To respect time and never be late to do something. This watch is important to me, not because of its price, but because of the lesson that I learned from it.
    49. The writer’s uncle came to visit them ______.
    A. by car B. by air  C. by boat      D. by taxi
    50. Why did Essa’s father get angry when Essa got to his house?

    When something goes wrong，it can be very satisfying to say，”Well,it’s so-and-so’s fault.”or “I know I’m late，but it’s not my fault；the car broke down.”It is probably not your fault，but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation，you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However,you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.
    Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you  need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame  the person. Ask to work with a different person, or  don’t rely on the person. You should accept that the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails  to do his job well.
    This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stop on for success.
    1. According to the passage, winners__________
    A. deal with problems rather than blame others
    B. meet with fewer difficulties in their lives
    C. have responsible and able colleagues
    D. blame themselves rather that others
    2.The underlined word remedy in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to__________.
    A. avoid                B. accept               C. improve                  D. consider
    3.When your colleague brings about a problem, you should__________.
    A. find a better way to handle the problem
    B. blame him for his lack of responsibility
    C. tell him to find the cause of the problem
    D. ask a more able colleague for help
    4. When problems occur, winners take them as__________
    A. excuses for their failures
    B. barriers to greater power
    C. challenges to their colleagues
    D.chances for self-development
    5. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
    A. A Winner’s Secret.                               B. A Winner’s Problem.
    C. A Winner’s Opportunity.                       D. A Winner’s Achievement.

    The stereotype(固有观念)of computer scientists as nerds who stay up all night coding and have no social life may be driving women away from the field, according to a new study published this month. This stereotype can be brought to mind based only on the appearance of the environment in a classroom or an office.
    “When people think of computer science the image that immediately pops into many of their minds is about the computer geek(怪人)surrounded by such things as computer games, science fiction and junk food,”said Sapna Cheryan, a University of Washington assistant professor of psychology and the study’s lead author. “That stereotype doesn’t appeal to many women who don’t like the portrait of masculinity(男性化).”
    Cheryan set up four experiments involving more than 250 female and male students who were not studying computer science to look at possible reasons why the proportion of women in the field is dropping while the proportion of women in such disciplines as biology, mathematics and chemistry is increasing.
    In the first experiment,students entered a small classroom that either contained objects stereotypically associated with computer science such as Star Trek posters, video game boxes and Coke cans, or non-stereotypical items such as nature posters, art, a dictionary and coffee cups. The students were told to ignore these objects because the room was being shared with another class. After spending several moments in the classroom, the students filled out questionnaires(调查问卷)that asked about their attitude toward computer science.
    Women exposed to the stereotypical setup expressed less interest in computer science than those who saw the non-stereotypical objects. Men placed in the same situations did not show a similar drop in interest in computer science. Cheryan said this study suggests that a student’s choice of classes or a major can be influenced by the appearance of classrooms, halls and offices.
    1. The underlined word “nerds” in Paragraph 1 probably refers to “______”
    A. dull persons     B. active persons     C. intelligent persons      D. funny persons
    2. Women are less likely to choose computer science because__________.
    A. it is too difficult for them       
    B. they have wrong understanding of it
    C. the lifestyle of computer scientists turns them away
    D. they don’t like the social life of computer scientists
    3. A woman would probably lose interest in computer science when she sees a ______.
    A. Star Trek poster     B. nature poster    C. dictionary      D. coffee cup
    4. What can influence a woman’s choice of classes, according to the passage?
    A. The contents of computer science.     
    B. The space in the classroom.
    C. The number of students in the classroom.
    D. The classroom environment.

    Sir William Osler has a few words for you: “In the Life of a young man the most essential thing for happiness is the gift of friendship.” Truer words were never spoken. For what more could you ask than comradeship during the peaks and valleys of life? To whom else but a close, valuable friend can you show off your successes and complain about your failures or losses?
    What is a “good friend”? How is he best described? Well, it has been my observation that although many will cry with you, few can sincerely rejoice (欣喜) with you. Therefore, in my opinion, a good friend is one who can enjoy your successes without envy; one who can say, “That was wonderful! You can do it again, even better if you want!” and mean it. Nothing taxes a friendship more than the prosperity of one and not the other. Even the closest of friendships often cannot resist such pressure and fail. No wonder many minor friendships go down day by day for the same reason.
    A person of good character and sound moral, of honor and humor, of courage and belief is a friend to be sought and treasured — for there are few. Too often we hear, “If you can count your good friends on more than one hand, consider yourself blessed.”
    What makes a friendship last? Well, I don’t know all the answers, but one of my observations is that most good friends usually have similar tastes. They generally like and dislike many of the same things. There also usually seems to exist a similarity of personality types — especially in the fundamental values of life such as honesty, sincerity, loyalty, and dependability. More often than not, birds of a feather do fly together. I don’t think it matters a lot whether one prefers jazz or hockey to another’s Mozart or ballet. Much other matters far more: relying, sharing, giving, getting, enjoying; a sympathetic ear always there; criticism when it can help; praise — even if only because it would help. With not many people on this earth will you find this much in common. When you find one, hang on to him, for a good friend found is a rare treasure.
    1. The function of Paragraph 1 is to introduce _____.
    A. a famous saying 
    B. the topic for discussion
    C. a famous person 
    D. two different attitudes
    2. What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2?
    A. People don’t have to pay taxes to develop friendship with others.
    B. Success of one person can promote his friendship with others.
    C. Friendship can be affected by the difference in success between friends.
    D. Nothing can affect friendship because it has gone through the peaks and valleys of life.
    3. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
    A. One is lucky to have many friends.
    B. A friend should have a good character.
    C. We should count our friends on more than one hand.
    D. A true friend should be treasured because there are few.
    4. According to the passage, which of the following plays the LEAST important role in a long-lasting friendship?
    A. Hobbies.                            B. Tastes.
    C. Personality.                          D. Sympathy.
