Its quite far but you have a car and I can show you the way.” “Certainly,” said the doctor, “Im quite r
23、eady, I can come at once.” After a few minutes the car was standing at the front door, the man got into the doctors car, and they drove off. They drove on for a long time. Then the man said, “Here you are. This is my home. Now I can pay you and you can go back to town.” “I must see the patient(病人),
24、” the doctor said, “How can I go back without seeing the patient?” “There is no patient,” explained the man. “Nobody is ill. I live here, you see, and one must get home from a town, mustnt he?

In my own experience, the people I respect the most and think about the
27、 most are the teachers who demand the most discipline (纪律) from their students.I miss one teacher in particular that I had in high school. I think she was a good teacher because she was a very strict person. I remember very clearly a sign on her classroom door. It was a simple sign that said, “Labor
28、atory : in this room the first five letters of the word were stressed not the last seven.” In other words, labor for her was more important than oratory, which means making speeches.She prepared her work very carefully and told us to do the same. We got lots of homework from her. Once she had broken
29、 her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the homework load would be reduced, but it continued just the same. She checked our work by stamping her name at the bottom of the papers to show that she had read them.I think sometimes teachers who demand the most are liked the least. But as
30、time goes by, this discipline really seems to benefit the students.46. Which of the following is considered a good teacher by the writer?A. A patient teacher.B. An honest teacher.C. A strict teacher.D. An easy going teacher.47. The teacher put up the sign on her classroom door _.A. to remind the stu
31、dents that this room was a laboratoryB. to advise the students to follow the disciplinesC. to warn the students not to be carelessD. to tell the students to work hard in the classroom48. When the teachers arm was broken, she _.A. gave her students the usual amount of homeworkB. gave her students les
32、s homeworkC. asked her students to check the homework themselvesD. gave her students more homework49. Whats the writers opinion of the discipline?A. It makes the students dislike their teachers.B. It does good to the students in the long run.C. Its too much for young children. D. It does more harm t
33、han good to the students.C.When something goes wrong，it can be very satisfying to say，“Well, its so-and-sos fault,” or “I know Im late，but its not my fault；the car broke down”. It is probably not your fault，but once you form the habit of blaming（责怪） somebody or something else for a bad situation，you
34、 are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to accept the situation. This is the winners key to success.Winners are great at overcoming
35、 problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your workmate causes you problems on t
36、he job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. You should accept the fact and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your workmate fails to do his job well.This is what being a winner i
37、s all aboutcreatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners also have some problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to
38、 develop their own abilities. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success.50. According to the passage, winners . A. deal with problems rather than blame othersB. meet with fewer difficulties in
39、their livesC. have responsible and able colleaguesD. blame themselves rather than others51. When your colleague brings about a problem, you should .A. find a better way to handle the problem B. blame him for his lack of responsibilityC. tell him to find the cause of the problem D. ask a more able co
40、lleague for help52. When problems occur, winners take them as A. excuses for their failures B. barriers to greater powerC. challenges to their colleagues D. chances for self-development53. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. A Winners Secret. B. A Winners Problem.C. A Winner
41、s Opportunity.D. A Winners Achievement.Part Writing （30 marks）Section A（10 marks）Directions: Read the following passage.
