Always Changing

Mark is leaving, and I’m feeling kind of sad.
You probably don’t know Mark, but you might be lucky enough1someone just like him. He’s been the heart and soul of the office for a couple of years combining2professional skills with a sweet and gentle nature.
And now he’s moving on to an exciting new professional3. It sounds like it could be the chance of a lifetime, and we’re4for him. But that doesn’t make it any easier to say goodbye to him.
Life has a way of throwing these curve(曲线)balls5us. Just when we start to get comfortable with a person, a place or a situation, something comes along to 6the recipe.
Our ability to cope with change7to a great degree, our peace, happiness and contentment in life.
But how do we do that? A friend of mine is fond of reminding us that“survivability depends upon8.”And then there’s Chris the California surf-rat, who once told me that the answer to life’s problems can be9in four words:“Go with the flow.”
I’m not exactly sure , but I think Chris was saying that life is a series of 10—both good and bad . No matter how excellent your skill , there will always be life-influencing factors over which you have no11. The truly successful person expects the unexpected, and is prepared to 12adjustments should the need arise-as it almost13does.
That doesn't mean you don't keep trying to make all your14come true.It just means that when things come up that aren't15in your plan,you work around them—and then you move on。
“Change,indeed,is painful,16ever needful,”said philosopher Thomas Carlyle.“And if memory has its force and worth,so also has17.”
we're going to miss Mark. But rather than stay on the18of our parting,we'll focus on our hopes for a brighter future-for him,and for us.And then we'll go out and19
everything we can to make that future happen.20our plans change--again.

In the virtual (虚拟的) world, she is a popular Kungfu writer Ling Feng. At school, she is a quick-witted party emcee (主持人) and competent student union leader. She is always one of the top three scorers of her grade and the winner of various academic competitions. Last week she became the only student to be recommended by her school principal (校长) to Peking University.

  She is 18-year-old Zhu Zhenhui of Haimen High School in Jiangsu, one of the 39 high schools from which Peking University will enroll students recommended by their principals next year.

  Zhu stood out among more than 30 candidates(候选人), but not only for her excellent high school reports and test scores. More importantly, she has performed outstandingly in other areas, which the principal believes will not cause the least controversy (争议) among students and teachers.   

  Zhu loves public speaking, in both Chinese and English. Her eloquence (口才) and quick mind make her an obvious choice to introduce ceremonies and parties on campus. As a news reporter and broadcaster on her school's radio station, Zhu has a keen sense of current affairs. The young journalist interviewed Sophia Ming Ren Leung, the first female Chinese Canadian senator (议员), when the politician visited a Nanjing school where she once studied. In the same year, she won the opportunity to question Kaifu Lee when the former Google vice-president appeared at a talk show on a local TV station.  

  Every Sunday Zhu chairs a student union meeting, where she leads discussion on timetables, events and routine (例行) work for the following week. Under her are the ministers of the union's six departments. “The work has made me organized and decisive,” she said. On November 21, at the invitation of Zhu and other union members, the famous gymnast Huang Xu attended the opening ceremony of the school's Sports Festival. 

  Some girls dream of being a princess, but not Zhu. Her fantasy is to be a knight (侠士) in one of Louis Cha (Jin Yong)'s or Gu Long's works. Her online novel, in the Jianghu World, is a huge success under her pen name Ling Feng. In the 120,000-character story, a girl learns to be tolerant and positive after an accidental journey to the ancient world. A book of the same title came out in June. “I'm working on the sequel (续集),” she said.

1.Which of the following is NOT the correct description of Zhu Zhenhui?  

A. An admired writer.                B. An eloquent speaker.

C. A gifted dancer.                  D. A born leader.

2.As a leader of the student union, Zhu has done quite a lot of impressive work EXCEPT _______.

A. interviewing former vice-president of Google

B. leading discussion on routine work

C. helping organize major events in school

D. inviting gymnast Huang Xu to attend Sports Festival 

3.What does the underlined word in the first paragraph mean?  

A. quick in mind                 B. fast in action  

C. speak quickly                 D. rapid in memorizing

4.What can be inferred from the passage?

A. Zhu learns to be tolerant and positive after leading the student union.

B. Zhu’s first novel which has 120,000 different characters has come out.

C. The school principal recommended Zhu to be enrolled in Peking University because it would cause the least controversy.

D. The first female Chinese Canadian senator is Zhu’s schoolmate.
