But I know they are with me every day in what they taught me and in the 36 they gave me
18、. Every morning my fathers message to me was: “Remember that 37 you walk out of this door, you carry responsibility, the good name of this family, the hopes and dreams of your mom and dad. My mother often urged me to 38 the high standards she set for me.”When I was in high school, I played in a rock
19、 band with friends in my class. We were devoted and practiced constantly. We moved past the guysinagarage stage and 39 to be pretty good, doing gettingpaid gigs (演奏会) most weekends, which made me 40 . At that time, though part of me was 41 up in that band, another part of me was the oldest son in th
20、e Clark family, 42 of my origin and a dedicated student busy applying to colleges. Without even telling my parents, I applied to Harvard. I didnt think I had much chance of getting in, 43 I wanted to try. So I was riding around being Mr. Cool Rock Musician half of the time, and the other half I was
21、focused on family and 44 goals. I was running on parallel 45 .When the group won a city wide Battle of the Bands, things heated up. My band mates had stars in their eyes we might be able to make it big. However, I began to feel 46 . I realized I was on quite different tracks: I 47 was becoming two p

My bandmasters were 5
23、1 . They thought I was crazy to withdraw 52 the peak of real success.

Last week I received a telephone call from a woman who could not stop crying as she told me that one
28、of my stories had saved her son from committing suicide. In closing she called me a hero.That got me thinking about what a hero is. Was I a hero because I pulled a family from a burning car? If so, how could I be a hero just because I wrote a story that saved someones life?Today I decided to look up
29、 the word “hero” in the dictionary to see exactly what it meant. It read “a person who does something brave”. As I read on, it also said “a person who is good and noble.”That statement impressed me more than the part about being brave. So I thought about something very important. Say I was walking i
30、nto the local Wal-Mart Store and I happened to open, and hold the door for someone as a courtesy. As they passed by, I say, “How are you today?” Most of the time that would be no big deal, but this time lets say it was for someone who was deeply depressed and near the end of the rope. That may have
31、very well been the only kindness or courtesy shown to them in a very long time.Having been near “the end of my rope”, after my marriage of twenty years ended, I was in such a condition. I was within hours trying to get up enough courage to end the pain and misery. When I returned home, someone had s
32、ent me a card in the mail which told me how much they would appreciate me as a friend. That wonderful card probably saved my life. That person, without even knowing it, saved a life and became a hero.The many stories I kept writing in the following years saved the life of a teenage boy. In turn that
33、 makes the person who sent me the card a double hero. I suppose that is why I fight so hard to help the children now living in orphanages(孤儿院). Most children come out of these institutions with a very hard and bitter attitude against the world. The gifts we send them let them know that they have not
34、 been forgotten. Hopefully, most of them will never hurt anyone because of the kindness shown to them by those of us who cared. If it works, we will also become “heroes”.Gee, who would have ever thought that anyone can become a hero, and possibly save a life, just by being kind and courteous to othe
35、rs? The best part of all is that becoming a hero is free to all who wish to wear such an honor.56. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage? A. Why Should You Be A Hero? B. What Exactly Is A Hero?C. I Am A Hero D. Everyone Is A Hero57. The underlined word “courtesy” in Paragra
36、ph 4 means the behavior that is _.A. both polite and respectful B. both brave and fearlessC. both polite and brave D. both quick-minded and kind58. The underlined word “it” in the last sentence of Paragraph 5 refers to _.A. the wonderful card the writer received B. the action of sending the cardC. t
37、he fact that the sender saved the writer D. the fact that the sender was a true friendBAdvertising means to draw peoples attention to something. It is a central feature of our lives. Sales depend upon it. So does our knowledge of what is available. Read the following adverts and see how much you und
38、erstand them.59. About what they advertise, we can safely say that _ .A. Adverts(I)and()advertise two productsB. Adverts()and(IV)advertise servicesC. Adverts(II)and()advertise beliefs D. Adverts(I)and(IV)provide jobs60. How many adverts are trying to be price competitive?A. 1. B. 2. C. 3. D. 4.61. W

40、e can conclude that _.A. some adverts are provided by newspapers free of chargeB. newspaper is the most common means of advertisingC. advertising is an expensive businessD. adverts should appeal to customersCAfter giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An il
41、lness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he
42、 would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams.I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “
43、Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didnt mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me.
44、When we had finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I had won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back
45、to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”Last summer I received a letter from Matthews parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days b
46、efore:Dear Dick,My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I dont have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.I told you someday that I would go to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I
47、 know now I will never get to do that. However, I know Im a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.Your friend,Matthew63. The boy looked forward to meeting the author because _. A. he wa

53、intense.

Its a good moment
61、 to reflect on what else we should be giving our kids as they head off to school.American parents are feeling particularly anxious about that question this year. The educational process feels more than ever like a race, one that starts in pre-preschool and doesnt end until your child is admitted to
62、the perfect college. Most parents are more worried than they need to be about their childrens grades, test scores and IQ. And what we dont think about enough is how to help our children build their characterhow to help them develop skills like perseverance, grit, optimism, conscientiousness, and sel
63、f-control, which together do more to determine success than S.A.T. scores or I.Q.There is growing evidence that our anxiety about our childrens school performance may actually be holding them back from learning some of these valuable skills. If youre concerned only with a childs G.P.A., then you wil
64、l likely choose to minimize the challenges the child faces in school. With real challenge comes the risk of real failure. And in a competitive academic environment, the idea of failure can be very scary, to students and parents alike.But experiencing failure is a critical part of building character.
65、 Recent research by a team of psychologists found that adults who had experienced little or no failure growing up were actually less happy and confident than those who had experienced a few significant setbacks in childhood. “Overcoming those obstacles,” the researchers assumed, “could teach effecti
66、ve coping skills, help engage social support networks, create a sense of mastery over past adversity, and foster beliefs in the ability to cope successfully in the future.”By contrast, when we protect our children from every possible failurewhen we call their teachers to get an extension on a paper;
67、 when we urge them to choose only those subjects theyre good atwe are denying them those same character-building experiences. As the psychologists Madeline Levine and Dan Kindlon have written, that can lead to difficulties in adolescence and young adulthood, when overprotected young people finally c
68、onfront real problems on their own and dont know how to overcome them.In the classroom and outside of it, American parents need to encourage children to take chances, to challenge themselves, to risk failure. In the meantime, giving our kids room to fail may be one of the best ways we can help them
