39、 $40(C) You are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as they” are aroun
40、d. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are individuals who mig
41、ht like to control their lives, but they dont let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they dont blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natur
42、al part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities, yet their experience of life is worlds apart. Victims relish in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause other
43、s-and even themselves-to feel like victims, too. Creators consciously choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives.In reality, all of us play the victim or
44、the creator at various points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief, then accept
45、the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life.In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have fuller, richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.72.

There is one extra heading which you do not need. A. Who does freelancing?B. The pros an
50、d cons of freelanceC. What is the definition of freelance?D. Key to freelance successE. What is freelancing really like?F. The best way to develop a career76. Freelance is a word that goes back to medieval times when it was used to describe soldiers who sold their skills to those prepared to pay the
51、ir market rate. Today its an increasingly common way of working for people in a range of occupations and appeals to many who feel constrained by corporate culture. 77. What you gain is freedom of movement, what you can lose is a sense of belonging. You can end up feeling isolated from normal support
52、 networks, because suddenly you are responsible for your own welfare, training, safety, career development, equipment, professional updating and a thousand other things, it is easy to remain unaware of these things in the relatively cosseted existence of full-time employment. So before you leap up i
53、nto this exciting and potentially rewarding way of working, stand back and take a look at the risks.78. Freelancing has always been a common way of working for writers, artists and performers, but the range of occupations with a substantial number of freelancers is growing steadily. Anyone with a ma
54、rketable skill can choose to go it alone. Websites offer a free directory listing for those with skills to sell. Their categories include accountants, healthcare consultants, landscape architects and computer trainers. Areas of work that have problems recruiting staff are always keen to employ freel
55、ancers.79. Being a freelance is different from other forms of self-employment you still work for an employer or several employers but have to develop a completely different set of relationships with them. Employers are now your customers, you are their supplier. You have to become indispensable (不可缺
56、少的) to them, providing solutions to their problems, some of which they may not even realized they had. In many ways you have to behave like their dream employee, being more willing and available than you may have got used to whilst in a proper job”.80. You also have to be aware of, and sensitive to,
57、 the fact that you can be seen as a threat by your customers conventional employees, who may regard you as taking work they could do. Successful freelancing relies on the co-operation of everyone you come into contact with. Work that brings you into conflict with an existing workforce can be more tr
58、ouble than its worth.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Parents are often upset when their children praise the homes of their friends and regard it as a slur (诋毁) on their own cooking, or cleaning, or fur
59、niture, and often are foolish enough to let the teenagers see that they are annoyed. They may even accuse them of disloyalty, or make some unpleasant remark about the friends parents. Such a loss of dignity and attack on childish behavior on the part of the adults deeply shocks the teenagers, and ma
60、kes them decide that in future they will not talk to their parents about the places or people they visit. Before very long the parents will be complaining that the child is so secretive and never tells them anything, but they seldom realize that they have brought this on themselves.Disillusionment (
61、醒悟) with the parents, however good and adequate they may be both as parents and as individuals, is to some degree inevitable.Most children have such a high ideal of their parents, unless the parents themselves have been unsatisfactory, that it can hardly hope to stand up to a realistic evaluation. P
62、arents would be greatly surprised and deeply touched if they realized how much belief their children usually have in their character and correctness, and how much this faith means to a child. If parents were prepared for this teen-aged reaction, and realized that it was a sign that the child was gro
63、wing up and developing valuable powers of observation and independent judgment, they would not be so hurt, and therefore would not drive the child into opposition by offending and resisting it. The teenager, with his passion for sincerity, always respects a parent who admits that he is wrong, or ign
64、orant, or even that has been unfair or unjust. What the child cant forgive is the parents refusal to admit these charges if the child knows them to be true.Victorian parents believed that they kept their dignity by retreating (伪装) behind an unreasoning authoritarian attitude; in fact they did nothin
65、g of the kind, but children were then too frightened to let them know how they really felt. Today we tend to go to the other extreme, but on the whole this is a healthier attitude both for the child and the parent. It is always wiser and safer to face up to reality, however painful it may be at the
66、moment.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)81. What do parents tend to do when their children praise the homes of their friends?82. According to the passage, on what condition would the children respect their parents?83. The phrase “high ideal” in paragr
67、aph 3 refers to _.84. In the passage, “_” has the same meaning of parents covering themselves with an unreasonable strict attitude.第 II 卷（共45分）I.
