Do you know how to deal with failure at school? Four steps will help you get the most out of each failure and more on.
1. When you feel bad after failing, talk with your parents or good friends, or any other adult. Then decide to take the duty to improve yourself. Read the teachers’ comments on your test carefully.
Ask yourself what you were trying to do and why you failed. 2.Maybe you didn’t have all the information you needed; maybe you made a mistake or a poor decision. If so, give yourself a pat on the back. Fewer people ever get something right the first time they try it, and often it takes them many times. 3.Sometimes the failure isn’t because of something you did or didn’t do; it is someone else’s fault. But don’t spend time blaming them; instead, move on toward your goals.
4. . Review the situation to see what your choices are. There is a different between making a decision and giving up. Deciding to follow a better way is one thing; simply walking away means you really have failed.
Keep trying again. Successful people are different because they choose their next steps instead of just reacting to feelings. If a goal still important to you, figure out what to do and go after it again.5..
A. No pains, no gains.
B. Don’t give up easily
C. Failure is unavoidable
D. Remove your bad feelings
E. If it isn’t, do your best on something else
F. Actually it was because you were very lazy
G. Usually it was because you were trying out a new skill or learning a new subject.

Getting ripped off from time to time is just part of traveling---don’t let it ruin your day or your overall experience. But there are things you can do to avoid some of the most common rip-offs. Let me share my travel tips for how to avoid hidden fees, disappointed experiences and overpriced items.
Baggage Fees
Depending upon the airline, you can pay $15 to $75 for the first checked bag, and more for overweight bags. When possible, pack a bag lightly enough to a carry-on or fly airlines that still allow free checked bags(two bags for Southwest and one for JetBlue). Many airline programs allow members with a high status to have a free checked bag, so check your status.
Overpriced Hotel and Airport Food
To avoid the overpriced water sold at airports, bring an empty water bottle with you through security at the airport. Then, fill it up at a water fountain or ask a waiter at a coffee shop to fill it up for you. Pick up some snacks at a local corner store instead of hitting the hotel room mini bar, which can lead to expensive surprises on your final bill.
Tourist Trap Restaurants
If you’re visiting a restaurant or attraction that has online presence, Google it or search it on Yelp to see what the locals say about it and to find any available coupons(优惠券) that might get some extra savings. Often restaurants run deals on Yelp where if you “check in” at that restaurant and review it, you get a free dessert or 15% off the total bill, etc. By researching online, you’ll not only see whether there are any coupons or extra savings available, but people will tell you if the chef changed a month ago and the food is awful now.
1.To have a free checked bag, you shall not_______.
A. take a light carry-on B. have a high status
C. take overweight bags D. choose Southwest Airlines
2.If you want to drink free water at an airport, you can______.
A. take a bottle of water through security
B. go to a water fountain
C. go to a store at the airport
D. order a coffee at a coffee shop
3.The passage is probably written by______.
A. a travel agent
B. an economical person
C. an experienced traveler
D. a skilled net-worker

In Japan, Christmas just isn’t Christmas without butter. That’s because the Japanese love to celebrate Christmas Eve with "Christmas cakes," which are filled with whipped cream (生奶油) and topped with strawberries. Making this tasty treat requires some serious amounts of butter. But this year, the creamy golden spread is in short supply on the island nation.
In fact, many Japanese supermarkets are fresh out of dairy (milk) products entirely. Those that do still have butter often limit shoppers to one box apiece, and the price for that box is much higher than normal.
Northern Japan has been suffering unusually old winters in recent years, and all of Japan has had to endure (忍受) hotter summers. This extreme weather has stressed out the nation’s dairy cows. They have not been able to produce their expected amount of milk.
However, even before the bad weather, Japan’s butter supply was in trouble. The number of dairy farms in the country has been steadily shrinking. Not many young people in Japan want to become dairy farmers anymore.
The demand for dairy products in Japan has also been falling. The Japanese diet consists mainly of rice and seafood, and it often doesn’t require many milk products. So the government decided to cut back the number of the country’s dairy cows in 2007. This led to a butter shortage in 2008 as well as the current shortage.
The Japanese government has tried to increase the stock of butter by importing (进口) about 10,000 tons from overseas. But even this emergency supply has done little to end the shortage this Christmas season.
Blogger Audrey Akcasu says Japanese people are using substitutes in their cooking or paying more money for real butter.
"Some bakeries are choosing to replace butter with margarine (人造黄油) this year, claiming the slight change in taste will be less noticeable than the potential higher price we would see if they used imported butter," she writes in Nikkan Gendai, a Japanese newspaper. "But for many shoppers, it’11 have to be margarine or nothing this Christmas."
1.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. The milk. B. The butter.
C. The strawberry. D. The Christmas cake.
2.Which of the following is probably very popular in Japan?
A. Being dairy farmers.
B. Enjoying various dairy products.
C. Eating cakes at Christmas.
D. Tasting margarine rather than real butter.
3.Which of the following is Japan actually facing now?
A. A cow crisis. B. Much milder winter.
C. A shrinking population. D. Continually falling food prices.
4.What does Audrey Akcasu think of the government’ s importing butter from overseas?
A. It’ s wise. B. It’ s unnecessary.
C. It’ s ineffective. D. It’ s unreasonable.

A popular saying goes, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” However, that’s not really true. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesn’t matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves — the positive(积极的) and negative(消极的) effects are just as lasting.
We all talk to ourselves sometimes. We’re usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. In fact, we really shouldn’t be because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.
This “self-talk” helps us motivate(激励) ourselves, remember things, solve problems, and calm ourselves down. Be aware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying “Good job!”
Often, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner. However, harsh and critical language will most probably cause the clerk to be defensive.
Words possess power because of their lasting effect. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesn’t pass this test, then it’s better left unsaid.
Words possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem(自尊) and motivate others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.
1.The main idea of the first paragraph is that ________.
A. not sticks and stones but words will hurt us
B. inspiring words give us confidence
C. negative words may let us down
D. words have a lasting effect on us
2.There is no sense for us to feel embarrassed when we talk to ourselves because ____.
A. almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselves
B. we can benefit (受益) from talking to ourselves
C. talking to ourselves always gives us courage
D. it does no harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone
3.The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also timely______.
A. remind ourselves
B. praise ourselves
C. make ourselves relaxed
D. give ourselves entertainment
4.The author would probably hold the view that ________.
A. encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offers
B. negative words may stimulate us to make more progress
C. people tend to remember friendly words
D. it is better to think twice before talking to others

Every day, people come into contact with thousands of chemicals. These chemicals are said to be harmless to human health. In fact,the chemicals are considered so safe that we wash with them. We put them on our bodies and even our faces. Other chemical products are used throughout our homes.
By the time you walk out of your front door, you have already been exposed to thousands of chemicals.
On its own, each chemical seems harmless. But in combination with other chemicals, they may become deadly. That is the finding of a two-year study by a high-profile task force of scientists. The task force was told to investigate the cancer-causing possibility of chemical mixtures.
Linda Gulliver was one of 174 scientists on the task force. Their job was to study the cancer-causing potential of 85 chemicals. All 85 are said to be common in the environment.
Ms. Gulliver explains that chemicals have the potential or y to form dangerous mixtures. Even simple minerals can become dangerous when mixed with chemicals found in plastics or beauty products.
Working in groups, the scientists explored how different chemical mixtures could lead to cancer. Ms. Gulliver’s team looked at the ability of different combinations to support the in- crease of malignant (恶性的) human cells.
She says the current way to identify whether chemicals cause cancer is to test them one at a time. This method leads, she adds, to a long list of supposedly “safe” chemicals. She and her team say that approach needs to change.
“We definitely need certain research… to find out what mixtures of chemicals would be more harmful than others; what groups of chemicals, when together, would produce more harmful effects. And at the moment, that is not known.”
An estimated one in five cancers has been linked to chemical exposure. It may turn out that the cancer-causing villain (恶棍) is not a single chemical at all.
1.What effect may one single chemical have on us according to the text?
A. It may let us suffer from cancer.
B. It may not cause danger to us.
C. It may destroy our body.
D. It may let our body make a change.
2.What can we learn about Ms. Gulliver’s research?
A. She has found reasons for five kinds of cancers.
B. She has found that only one chemical can cause cancer.
C. She has found 85 cancer-causing chemicals.
D. She is not sure what mixtures of chemicals are more harmful.
3.According to the text? we can infer that the study .
A. is just wasting time and money
B. is in need of great efforts
C. will cause panic in public
D. will be resisted by the public
4.What is the best title for the text?
A. Mixtures of Safe Chemicals May Cause Cancer
B. Being Exposed to One Chemical Is Dangerous
C. How Mixtures of Safe Chemicals Come into Being?
D. What Is the Real Cause for Cancer?
