44、e, even though it was pouring with rain.Within a couple of minutes I felt alive again.To be honest, I felt like a young school girl again and had to stop myself from hopping along the path singing Im singing in the rain, a song I used to sing when I was a child.I think as adults we often try too har
45、d to control our inner children and as a result we restrain our own spirits, which only leads to depression and stress.Interestingly, it has been shown that people who spend 40 minutes walking in a nature reserve have a drop in their blood pressure levels, but this does not happen when they spend a

49、The world is filled with smart, talented, educated and gifted people. We meet them every day. A few days ago, my car was not running well. I pulled it into a garage, and the young mechanic had it fixed in just a few minutes. He knew what was wrong by simply listening to the engine. I was amazed. The
50、 sad truth is that great talent is not enough.I am constantly shocked at how little talented people earn. I heard the other day that less than 5 percent of Americans earn more than $ 100,000 a year. A business consultant who specializes in the medical trade told me how many doctors and dentists stru
51、ggled financially. It was this business consultant who gave me the phrase，“They are one skill away from great wealth.”There is an old saying that goes, “Job means just over broke (破产)” And unfortunately, I would say that the saying applies to millions of people. Because school does not think financi
52、al intelligence is intelligence, and most workers live_within_their_means. They work and they pay the bills. Instead I recommend young people to seek work for what they will learn, more than what they will earn.When I ask the class I teach, “How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonalds
53、？” almost all the students raise their hands. I then ask，“So if most of you can cook a better hamburger, how come McDonalds makes more money than you？” The answer is obvious: McDonalds is excellent at business systems. The reason why so many talented people are poor is that they focus on making a be
54、tter hamburger but know little or nothing about business systems. The world is filled with talented poor people. They focus on perfecting their skills at making a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger.68The author mentions the mechanic in the first paragraph
55、 to show that _.Ahe is just one of the talented peopleBhe is ready to help othersChe has a sharp sense of hearingDhe knows little about car repairing69The underlined part in the third paragraph can be best replaced by “_”Aspend more than they can affordBdo in their own wayClive in their own circleDl

It is the force which drives us on to use whatever talent we h
60、ave got. If we havent got some degree of ambition, these talents will not be used for our own and others benefit. We must continually want to be better than we are. Without ambition we are just jellyfish that flop through life. We only react to events; we dont try to control them.Ambition, however,
61、can have several defects.（缺点）First of all it can be unrealistic. We may not be able to see the limits of our own abilities, so we do ambitious things that are completely beyond us. Our career masters can see our good qualities and our limitations objectively. They may tell us that we havent the abil
62、ity to deal with people and would make good businessmen. We refuse to take their evaluation. We keep on trying. Many years and many disappointments later we are forced to accept their judgment. But what a waste of time our illfounded ambition has caused us!Secondly, our ambition can be too concentra
63、ted. We devote our attention to one narrow aim, such as getting distinctions in our science subjects. Everything that may draw us away from this aim is cut out of our lives. In the end we get our distinctions. But what damage we have caused ourselves in the process! We are isolated beings who only c
64、are about a particular examination. And we probably wont make good scientists. We lack the breadth of view necessary for success in higher studies.Thirdly, our ambition may be selfcentered. Instead of directing some of our ambition towards community improvement we may exploit members of the communit
65、y in the interests of selfadvancements. In later life we may be ambitious for the success of our children but we regard this success as only a further mark of our own success.Fourthly, our ambition can be limited to lifeless objectives. We want to gain money, or power, or membership of some circles.
66、 Persons who feel inferior try to make up by seeking the respect of others through possessions of these artificial signs of worth.Ambition is necessary in the lives of individuals necessary for their own improvement and for the improvement of the community in which they live. But, like all blind for
67、ces, it must be directed if it is not to cause disaster. It must be tightly controlled by the head and the heart. Otherwise ambition may demand too high a price in terms of human qualities.TitleHow Do We Count _81_？_82_With an ambition in our heart, were always trying our best to use our talent to b
68、ecome better than we are, thus _83_ ourselves and others.Imperfection_84_ ambition may fail us in seeing the limits of our own abilities. Too _85_ ambition may cause us to devote our attention to one narrow aim, lacking the breadth of view necessary for _86_ success. Our ambition may make us among t
69、hose_87_ people who gain their interests by sacrificing others. Our ambition can be _88_ to lifeless aims, which lead us to the way to build up our _89_ through possessions of artificial signs of worthConclusionAmbition is a good servant but a bad _90_. Therefore, we must try to direct it in a proper way.第三节、书面表达（满分15）根据以下提示，以Travel 为题写一篇120词左右的短文。1 当工作或学习累了时，你可以旅游，领略大自然的美，呼吸新鲜空气，还可以交友。2 有时旅游也会有烦恼，如天气多变，还可能被雨淋。3 旅游时应准备充分，了解天气情况。4 有个旅伴可以相互照应，避免出事。版权所有：高考资源网()
