    Though many people tell us we can’t succeed, we need to hear others，opinions. I remember my high school English teacher telling me not to apply to Cornell University because they wouldn’t accept me and even if they did, I wouldn’t be able to do the work. I almost didn’t apply but a few days later I saw Ivan Goldfarb, a former teacher and asked him about Cornell. He said, “If you get in，then you go. You can do it.” His words made all the difference. I applied, and was accepted.

    Too often we think it’s our role to put “reality” into someone’s life. We think it’s our job to protect people from the pain of failure and defeat. We think we must point out how bad the economy is and how horrible the job market is and how the sky is falling. We think that dreams are meant for others.

    I say there are enough “realists” in the world. The world doesn’t need more negativity and impossible thinkers. The world needs more optimists，encouragers，and inspirers. The world needs more people to speak into the hearts of others and say “I believe in you.” “Follow your passion and live your purpose.” “The job market is not great but I believe you’ll find the right job for you.” and so on.

    When it comes to encouragement, I know that everyone loves working for and with people who bring out the best in us. And while we'll always remember the negative people who told us we couldn’t accomplish something, we will always cherish and hold a special place in our heart for those who encouraged us.

    Today I want to encourage you to be an encourager. So often the difference between success and failure is belief. And so often that belief is instilled (逐步灌输) in us by someone who encouraged us.

    1.After a talk with the English teacher, the author thought .

    A. he would have a try even if he was to meet with a failure

    B. he cast much doubt on what the teacher had said

    C. whether he should give up his dream

    D. he should turn to another person for advice

    2.Whom would you wish to get advice from if you were a person in need?

    A. One who can foresee your failure in the future.

    B. One who can analyze the severe situation ahead.

    C. One who is willing to help you with your work.

    D. One who can stimulate your courage and creativity.

    3.What can we learn from the passage?

    A. Your casual words may have a big effect on others.

    B. It is better not to tell truth when you are asked for advice.

    C. No one on earth is content to believe a true word.

    D. Teachers should be cautious of what they do.

    It seems that if the result is bad, which people work for will be meaningless. Personally speak, the process of fighting for the goal is less important than the result. When we fight for our goals, we will be devoted what we are doing and try to improve us. If we fail in the end, when we look back on the beginning, we will find that we are no longer the childish one. We have grown up. What's the more, in the process of fighting, we got close to success, as the saying goes that failure are the mother of success. So don't treat the result so serious; just enjoy the process.

    D （2017·新课标卷I）

    Some of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO( United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying(联合) voice across cultures.

    Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.

    It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change that. As the Kennedy Center’s artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture.

    “Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells National Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan. “What I’m hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and write anymore. It’s actually color, and it’s actually digital.”

    Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. “The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran.

    Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party, “just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran. “For me, it’s the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感) lie? Are we, as humans, gaining any insight(感悟) on how talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,” says Moran, “so I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster.”

    1.Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?

    A. To remember the birth of jazz.

    B. To protect cultural diversity.

    C. To encourage people to study music.

    D. To recognize the value of jazz.

    2.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?

    A. Jazz becoming more accessible.

    B. The production of jazz growing faster.

    C. Jazz being less popular with the young.

    D. The jazz audience becoming larger.

    3.What can we infer about Moran’s opinion on jazz?

    A. It will disappear gradually.

    B. It remains black and white.

    C. It should keep up with the times.

    D. It changes every 50 years.

    4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

    A. Exploring the Future of Jazz B. The Rise and Fall of Jazz

    C. The Story of a Jazz Musician D. Celebrating the Jazz Day
