    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 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 situation 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 stones for success.

    Have you ever hated anyone? Well, probably you don’t really hate them. But you do get angry the moment you think of them. If you don’t get out of the anger, it may turn into bitterness(积怨).
    Bitterness can come about when we can’t forgive someone who has hurt us or made us angry. Someone might say or do something that hurts us. But we keep it deep inside instead of working through the anger. Before long, a bitter feeling begins to grow. The bitterness shows when we constantly criticize the one who hurt us. We may think we are hurting that person, but we are really only hurting ourselves.
    Bitterness is a harmful emotion that affects the whole body. It can lead to serious health problems such as high blood pressure. Bitterness can stop us from concentrating on important things. Instead, we waste time thinking about how we have been hurt.
    Finally, holding on to bitterness can hurt our relationships with friends and family members. No one enjoys being around an angry, negative person for very long.
    Author Chuck Swindoll once said, “ Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we respond to it.” That means when someone hurts you, your response is more important than what happened. You can choose to let go of hurt. You can also choose to hold on to hurt, which results in bitterness.
    If you see bitterness in your life, here are some ways to deal with it.
    Stop making excuses for it.
    You may feel you have a fight to be angry. You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look sad. But in the end, bitterness hurts you much more than the other person.
    Forgive and forget it.
    The best thing you can do is to forgive and forget. You probably can’t totally put the act out of your mind. But you can decide to forgive the other person. Let it go and move on. You’ll enjoy better health and peace of mind.
    小题1:If we don’t release anger, _____ .
    A．We will always be criticized and hurt
    B．We will not blame others for any reason
    C．A bitter feeling will develop in our mind
    D．We will not be particular about what others do
    小题2:The main idea of Paragraph 3 is _____.
    A．The relationships hurt by bitterness.
    B．The illness caused by bitterness
    C．The reaction of an angry person
    D．The negative effects of bitterness
    小题3:The author advises us to do the following EXCEPT_____.
    A．to hold on to bitterness inside us
    B．to forgive the one who hurts you
    C．to stop making excuses for the bitterness
    D．to forget others’ rude behavior
    小题4:By forgiving others, we are able to _____.
    A．prevent bad things from happening
    B．be friends with the person who hurts us
    C．forget the bitter experience completely
    D．enjoy good health and a peaceful mind

    I am a good mother to three children. I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.
    I no longer consider myself the center of the universe. I listen. I try to laugh. I am a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows (誓约) mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.
    So here’s what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion (提升)， the bigger paycheck, the larger house.
    Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who love you. And remember that love is not leisure (空闲), it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an e-mail. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.
    It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, our minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of to live. I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all.
    I learned to love the journey, not the destination. I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally. And I tried to do that, in part, by telling others what I had learned. By telling them this: Read in the backyard with the sun on your face. Learn to be happy. And think of life as a deadly illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion as it ought to be lived.
    小题1:The best title of this passage probably is ________.
    A．Love your friendsB．Live a real life
    C．Don’t waste timeD．Be a good mother and wife
    小题2:How did the author form her view of life?
    A．By working and social experience
    B．Learning from her friends.
    C．Through an unfortunate experience.
    D．Because of her children and husband.
    小题3:The underlined sentence “It is so easy to exist instead of to live” in the fifth paragraph probably means ______.
    A．it is so easy to keep alive but not to live a real life
    B．it is very hard to live a real life
    C．it is more difficult to exist than to live a happy life
    D．it is so easy to make a living
    小题4:What is the author’s attitude toward work?
    A．Do it well to serve others.
    B．To earn enough money to make life better.
    C．Try your best to get higher position and pay.
    D．Don’t let it affect your real life.
    小题5:It can be inferred from the passage that ______.
    A．the author is a success in personal life
    B．the author didn’t try her best to work well
    C．the author spent all her time caring for her children

    A few days ago, I went to school with lots of books，hoping to get a locker (锁柜). Suddenly, it started raining heavily. I hurried to pay for my locker, but I was disappointed when they informed me they only accepted cash. I was $ 7.00 short, which meant I had to carry the books back home. It would be an exhausting (令人精疲力竭的) two-hour journey back home with all those books.
    An elderly gentleman nearby noticed my problem. He asked how much cash I needed. When I told him I was $7 short, he quickly took out the money from his wallet .“You don’t have to pay me back ,”he said. I was speechless; I didn't know whether to take the money or come back with the books the next day. A young student who was working there noticed my hesitation. “He’s really nice ,”said the student. I was starving this morning and he bought breakfast for me. He always helps people in different ways.
    The next day, I went to him and thanked him for trusting me and lending me the money. He said he forgot about it and didn't expect I would give it back. “I’m very happy,” he said,“not because I’m getting my money back, but because this is the right way to go---whatever you get from this world, give it back as much as you possibly can. Spread kindness around the world with the smallest things you can do.”
    Later, I found out he wasn’t involved with any charity（慈善）organizations. He has been performing these types of acts for years. Earlier, someone had done something incredibly kind for him and he has been spreading the kindness ever since.
    He taught me a very important lesson in life. We come to this world with nothing and we will leave with nothing. Whatever we own, it will become somebody else’s and whatever we leave, it will become somebody else’s.  
    小题1:Why did the writer need a locker in the school?
    A．To help him get away from the sudden rain.
    B．To store his large quantity of books.

    D．To make it easier for him to go on a trip.
    小题2:When the old gentleman offered the money, the writer was________.
    A．touchedB．amazed C．hesitantD．embarrassed
    小题3:From Paragraph 3 we learn that ________.
    A．the gentleman worked in the school
    B．the gentleman was kind but forgetful
    C．the gentleman thought it right to give back to society
    D．the gentleman refused to take back the money
    小题4:From the passage we can conclude that_______.
    A．people shouldn't focus too much on money
    B．the writer often takes many books to school
    C．there was only $ 7 in the writer's wallet

    Some time ago , I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg ．I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended , as there were a whole lot of antique  shops near my home ．So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me ．I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception ．I was quite wrong ．The man wouldn’t even look at my chair ．

    You have the ability to decide if you are happy or not. Happiness is a choice.
    You can't depend on someone else to make you happy. That is a lesson I learned early on in my marriage. I realized that I couldn't rely on my husband as my source of happiness. I learned that my happiness depended on me and not my husband's actions. I learned that you have to choose to be happy.
    You can choose your emotions. True happiness comes from within; it can't be forced by outside forces. So how do you choose happiness? The same way you choose to smile or choose to wear a certain outfit. You choose it because that's what you want to experience in your life.
    You want to buy a new pair of shoes so you choose a pair that you like and feel good. You wouldn't buy a pair of shoes that you don't like or that don't fit well, right? So why do we keep choosing emotions and feelings that don't make us feel good?
    Choosing to be happy after you realize your anger has shown up (or even choosing to be calm) can be beneficial. We choose our feelings; no one can do that for us. If we let others get to us, influence our emotions - we are giving them power over us. When others cause us anger or pain, we are giving them our power.
    We need to keep our feelings in check and not react automatically to what is thrown at us. We need to think our actions out instead of just reacting to what someone says or does.
    Remember that we can always choose happiness. At first it will be difficult to just switch your thoughts and feelings from anger, self-doubt, or fear to joy and happiness. But it is only a thought away. Don't dwell on what happens to you unnecessarily but realize what is causing you to feel that way. Realize that thoughts, feelings and emotions can change. Then move on and choose to be happy.
    小题1:What’s the best title of this passage?
    A．Choose to Be HappyB．Choose Your Emotions
    C．Pretend to Be HappyD．Find Happiness
    小题2:The lesson the writer learned in her marriage is ________.
    A．she can depend on her husband to find happiness
    B．balancing the relationship between the husband and wife is an art
    C．one can’t rely on someone else to make himself or herself happy
    D．happiness can be influenced by outside forces
    小题3:Why did the writer mention buying shoes?
    A．To use it as an example to show the importance of choosing to be happy.
    B．To offer advice on how to choose comfortable shoes.
    C．To compare choosing shoes and choosing an outfit.
    D．To help to move to the next paragraph easily.
    小题4:The writer suggests that we should ________.
    A．let others control our feelings
    B．respond immediately to others’ words
    C．pay more attention to words than actions
    D．hold back our feelings properly

    After the examination, the doctor told my parents my sight would get worse and that I would lose my sight finally. On the way home from hospital, no one said a word. One day, would I only imagine the scenery beyond the glass rather than see it?
    That September, I entered middle school. Most nights I had homework that included an armful of books to read. To keep up with other children, I took great trouble to finish the task. With my nose a couple of inches from the page, I was tired easily. What’s worse, after I had read several pages on my own, the words slipped off the page into inky pools.
    However, then I did not have audio books and electronic devices like kids do now. Instead, Mom volunteered to read out loud. Mom worked part-time, cleaned the house, cooked and spent time with Grandma. In spite of being so busy, she showed up in my room like clockwork. She put on her reading glasses. Mom always thought those glasses made her look old. To me, she looked like a teacher.
    In my room, Mom’s voice competed with the ticking of the clock. Being forced to focus on listening, I found a way to keep my marks up and compete with the other kids. When the teacher asked a question, I raised my hand with confidence. Teachers praised me for having a good memory. Reading removed my fear for my failing sight, reading also made me curious about other people’s challenges and how they managed. Though I could not use my eyes to fix on each passage, my mind lit up with every new book.
    True to what the doctor said, the worst came, but thanks to Mom, my sense of hearing now allows me to “see”. This was the most precious (珍贵的) gift from a mother to her child.
    小题1:Why did the author and his parents keep silent on their way back home from hospital?
    A．They all wanted to have a good rest.
    B．The author didn’t do well in the exam.
    C．What the doctor said made them worried.
    D．They focused on the scenery along the road
    小题2:How did the author manage to get high marks?
    A．By being confident
    B．By listening carefully.
    C．By getting help from his classmates.
    D．By reading as many books as possible.
    小题3:We can learn from the text that    .
    A．the author’s sight recovered finally
    B．reading made the author more sensitive
    C．the author’s mother didn’t work to look after him
    D．reading made the author not worry about his sight
    小题4:Which of the following could be the title of the text?
    A．My eyesight troubleB．An unforgettable experience
    C．With ears wide openD．About Mother’s love

They were tough years, actually   21  for us family members than for her, I believe. She suffered very little __22__ in those final years, less than she __23__ when living in her own home.
