    It was terribly cold and nearly dark on the last evening of the old year, and the snow was falling fast. In the cold and the darkness, a poor little girl, with bare head and naked feet, wandered through the streets. It is true she had on a pair of slippers when she left home, but they were not of much use. They were very large, so large, indeed, that they had belonged to her mother, and the poor girl had lost them in running across the street to avoid two carriages that were rolling along at a terrible rate. One of the slippers she could not find, and a boy seized upon the other and ran away with it. So the little girl went on with her little naked feet, which were quite red and blue with the cold. In an old apron she carried a number of matches, and had a bunch of them in her hands. No one had bought anything of her the whole day, nor had any one given her even a penny.
    Lights were shining from every window, and there was a delicious smell of roast goose, for it was New-year’s eve—yes, she remembered that. In a corner, between two houses, one of which projected beyond the other, she sank down and huddled（蜷缩）herself together. She had drawn her little feet under her, but she could not keep off the cold; and she dared not go home, for she had sold no matches, and could not take home even a penny of money. Her father would certainly beat her; besides, it was almost as cold at home as here.
    小题1:The story happened ________.
    A．on New-year DayB．on Christmas
    C．on a rainy eveningD．on a snowy night
    小题2:From the passage we can learn that the little girl’s father ______.

    Imagine someone has crossed the seas joining five continents by swimming. It is a major success for anyone. But it is an even greater success for Philippe Croizon, who has no arms, and no legs! His achievements show that we can all achieve great things—no matter who we are.
    Philippe Croizon was 26 years old when he had an accident. The doctors had to remove both of his arms and legs. “When they cut off my last leg I wanted to die. I suffered great depression and my spirit was as low as you can get. But you have to choose—and I chose to live!” said Croizon.
    While he was recovering in hospital, Croizon saw a television programme about a woman who had been swimming across the English Channel. After watching the programme Croizon decided to do it. He began to exercise every day to make him strong and it took him two years to prepare.
    Finally in 2010, Croizon was ready. He entered the cold, grey sea of the English Channel. He was now 42 years old. It took him from early morning until night to swim the distance. He felt a lot of pain. But he had become the first person without arms and legs to swim between France and England. Croizon had achieved his dream, but he did not stop there. He looked for a new goal.
    Early in 2012 he planned to swim across the seas that join five major continents. During the next few months he swam between the four continents of Australia, Asia, Africa and Europe and finally in the cold waters of the Bering Strait between the continents of Asia and the Americas.
    “We want to show people something. If disabled people have courage and a lot of training they can do the same things as those who are not disabled,” said Croizon.

    When he was just 19, Michael Dell started the company that would dominate the industry.
    At the time, IBM personal computers sold in stores for about ＄3,000. After taking them apart and rebuilding them, Dell realized the components (零部件) could be bought for one-fourth the price. Soon he was buying components to reduce the cost. A good business decision, but it meant his room was starting to look like a mechanic’s shop.
    “I was quite excited about the possibilities for personal computers and how they could change society. I had this idea to sell the products directly to the users over the phone”, he said. College plans and his parents’ expectations bothered him a lot. But Michael Dell was determined. He drove off to the University of Texas at Austin in August 1983 in a car he’d bought with earnings from selling newspapers. He was surprised that his mother wasn’t suspicious about the three computers in the backseat. By November, news reached his parents that he wasn’t attending classes. On a surprise visit to Austin, they caught their son on spot. Michael Dell told his dad that he wanted to compete with IBM.
    Although Michael agreed to focus on his studies, the business chances and the timing couldn’t have been better. The public was becoming more interested in computers, but no one was producing them. In early May, a week before his final exams, Michael started Dell computer Corporation with ＄1,000. He took his exams, and then dropped out of college at the end of his freshman year. It was time to try out his direct-to-customer business model.
    “Three years later”, Dell says, “we had already achieved annual sales of about ＄150 million, I was 22 years old then.”
    小题1:What does the underlined word in paragraph 1 mean?
    A．affectB．developC．supportD．lead
    小题2:Which of the following is true according to paragraph 2?
    A．Dell discovered a good chance to make money
    B．Dell could buy a computer at one-fourth the price
    C．IBM made little money from personal computers
    D．Dell rebuilt computers in a mechanic’s shop
    小题3:When Dell’s parents learned about his absence from class, they       .
    A．tried to help with his business
    B．were too suspicious to accept it
    C．wanted him to go hack to class
    D．encouraged him to compete with IBM
    小题4:It can be inferred from the article that       .
    A．Dell was tired of his college life
    B．Dell was not devoted to his study at college
    C．Dell’s college life helped him greatly
    D．Dell didn’t finish his final exams
    小题5:Dell’s experiences show that       .
    A．determination and opportunity lead to success
    B．family support plays an import in one’s success
    C．there’s no need for all of us to go to college
    D．we should insist on whatever we are doing

    How often do you let other people’s nonsense change your mood? Do you let a bad driver, impolite waiter，rude boss, or an insensitive employee       your day?
    Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson in the back of a New York City taxi cab. One day I was in a taxi and we headed        the airport. We were driving in the       lane when suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us.  My taxi driver slammed on his      , slide sideways，and at the very last moment our car stopped and       the other car by just inches！The driver of the other car , the guy who almost caused a big accident, looked around and started       at us.
    My taxi driver just       and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was        ,so I said，"Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital！” This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call "The Law of the Garbage Truck".
    He said, “ Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of      , full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage        up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on       .  Don’t take it personally; Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Believe me. You’ll be       .”
    So I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and        it to other people at work, at home, or on the street? It was then that I said, “I don’t want their garbage and I’m not going to spread it anymore.”
    Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with      . The mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what’s       in your life. See, Roy Baumeister, a psychology researcher from Florida State University，found in his extensive research that you __     bad things more often than good things in your life. You store the bad memories more easily, and you __    them more frequently. So love the people who treat you right. Ignore the ones who don’t. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you _    it！The odds are against you when a Garbage Truck comes your way, but when you follow “The Law of the Garbage Truck”，you take back control of your life. You make room for the good by      go of the bad.
    Have a Garbage-Free Day！Have a marvelous, garbage-free day！The seeds you plant today       the harvest you reap tomorrow.

    Mrs. White lost her dog. After searching place after place, she placed a “Lost Dog” advertisement in the local newspaper.
    The following morning her phone rang and a       voice began, “I’m calling about your   __  .” Then the caller coughed and cleared her voice a few times. She       that she wasn’t feeling well and that, in fact, she hadn’t felt well       her husband died three years ago. She went on to tell that her parents had passed away, and her sister was       with a deadly illness. Even her friends were not doing well.
    After 30 minutes of      , sympathizing and even trying offers of help, the dog owner   __   the conversation back to the       subject. “About the dog,” she said.
    “Oh,” the caller      , “I don’ t have him. I just thought I’d call to       you up.”
    Maybe her technique needed improving, but her       were right on. And though “cheering up” may not be exactly what we      , we certainly need encouragement ---       --- at times. The need for sincere       is basic among human beings.
    Do you need encouragement? There’re those who will support your side. Educator Booker T. Washington observed, “There’re two ways of       one’s strength: one is pushing down;   __   is pulling up.” There’re people ready to pull you up when others are pushing down. We need those people in our lives - those who use their strength by pulling us up.
    I believe these people can be found      . I believe that we can all become “    ”, lifting one another from dark pits of discouragement to the light of      . And when that happens, the world will never be      .

    The worker I hired to repair my house had just finished a difficult first day on the job. A broken wheel made him an hour late; his ladder (梯子) fell down when he was painting the roof and now his old truck wouldn' t start. With each problem he shouted angrily, more at himself than at his things. As I drove him home, the man didn't say a word.
    I tried talking to the man to kill time. I managed to find out that he had come up from Blue Hills in Victoria with his family six months ago to find a job. This was his first job since moving here. I now knew why his price was lower than any other worker I could find in the local newspaper. He really needed the job. His clothes told me as much.
    On arriving, much to my surprise, he invited me in to meet his family. As we walked through his front garden he suddenly stopped at a small tree and placed his hands on it. Then, when he opened the door he completely changed. Instead of his troubled face, there was now a warm smile, hugs for his two children and a kiss for his wife.
    The following day, I asked him about the tree.
    "That's my trouble tree," he answered. "Work troubles aren't welcome at home with my wife and the children. So I hang them on that tree every night when I come home. Then in the morning I pick them up again. "
    "And you know what else?" he said smiling,"The next morning I find that there aren't as many as I remember hanging up the night before. "
