No wonder people always acknowledge my teaching career with,“Im glad its you and not me.” Suddenly, my mind transported me to my first few years of teaching. “Peter Potter，” I called from my

27、d went west to dig and grow rich. After months of labor, he was rewarded by the discovery of the shining ore (矿石). He needed machinery to bring the ore to the surface. So, with the “strike”, he returned home. And with the help of Darby, he borrowed a lot of money. After buying the machinery and havi
28、ng it shipped, Uncle and Darby went back to work the mine.The first car of ore was mined. And the returns proved they had one of the richest mines in Colorado! Down went the drills! Up went the hopes of Uncle and Darby!Then something happened! The vein (矿脉) of gold ore disappeared! They drilled on,
29、but all in vain. Finally, they decided to quit and sold the machinery to a junk man for a few hundred dollars. The junk man called in a mining engineer to look at the mine and do a little calculating. The engineers calculations showed that the vein would be found just three feet from where the Darby
30、s had stopped drilling! The junk man took millions of dollars in the vein, because he knew enough to seek experts advice before giving up.Most of the money which went into the machinery was borrowed through the efforts of Darby, who was then a very young man. The money came from his relatives becaus
31、e of their faith in him. He paid back every dollar of it, although he was years in doing so.Long afterward, Mr. Darby made another discovery that desire can be changed into gold. This discovery came after he went into the business of selling life insurance. Remembering that he lost a huge fortune, f
32、or he stopped three feet from gold, Darby profited by the experience in his chosen work, saying to himself, “I stopped three feet from gold, but I will never stop because men say no when I ask them to buy insurance.”Darby sold more than a million dollars in life insurance annually.

That goes for space, too. An estimated
36、 500,000 pieces of debris (碎片) litter the Earths orbit as a result of mans explorations of space. Some satellites have been hit by fast-moving pieces of junk. The remains of old rockets can be the size of a bus, while other debris pieces are simply tiny spots of paint.Today, our species is responsib
37、le for the junk dashing around Earth at high speeds, and if we dont start actively removing the largest pieces, the risk of collisions will only grow worse. “Imagine how dangerous sailing the high seas would be, if all the ships ever lost in history were still floating on top of the water.” says Jan
38、 Wrner, ESA director general, “That is the current situation in orbit, and it cannot be allowed to continue.”Its almost as if we need a truck to remove all of failed satellites from our orbit. By 2025, the agency plans on launching the worlds first orbiting junk collector, a four-armed robot that tr
39、acks down space waste. The first-of-its-kind task, known as ClearSpace-1, will start collecting only a single piece of space junk to prove the concept works. The target in this case is called Vespa, a leftover from ESAs Vega rocket launch in 2013. This piece of junk weighs roughly the same as a smal
40、l satellitle and has a simple shape that should make it easy to grab with four robotic arms. Once its safely in the arms of the garbage collector, it will then be dragged out of orbit and allowed to burn up in the atmosphere.In addition, an Australian company, Electro Optic Systems, has received a $
41、 3.5 million government fund to develop the worlds first laser tracking (激光跟踪) technology. It would replace existing radar (雷达) networks that currently monitor that part of space.

45、 will require very little effort, would you be interested？Of course you would！Science tells us that an “attitude of gratitude” is a good health choice. 36 And gratitude requires little time and no money. But why can gratitude improve our productivity and results？ 37 We learn the importance of saying
46、 “thank you” as little children. This childhood lesson is extremely of great use. 38 How do you feel about them? Does their appreciation positively impact your relation with them? Of course it does! So be grateful for people, their contributions and their actions and make sure you let them know how
47、you feel. Gratitude improves problem solving skills. Too often we look at problem solving with a very bored or exhausted view. 39 We also enter a problem solving situation with a perspective of pavement and opportunity rather than challenge or issue. Gratitude helps us learn. Every dark cloud has a
48、silver lining. Behind every problem lies an opportunity. 40 So, the more aware and grateful we are of what we have and our capabilities, the more capable and elective we become in living. A. Gratitude improves attitudes. B. Gratitude improves relationships. C. Being more grateful often makes us happ
49、ier and more optimistic. D. Think about those people that you know who are most appreciative of you.E. Grateful people experience fewer aches and pains and report feeling healthier than other people.F. However, when we think about what we are grateful for, we open our minds up to new possibilities a
50、nd connections. G. Being grateful for our situation, even if we dont like everything about it, allows us to be thankful for opportunity to learn something new.第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节：完型填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） Have you seen people who take pictures of food for more than 10 minutes before eating?
