【題目】任務型閱讀 根據短文內容完成表格中所缺信息，在答題卷上相應的橫線上填寫答案，每空限填一個單詞。

Whenever we meet with difficulty or failure, teachers, parents or others often say to us or perhaps we say to ourselves, ―Never give up.

These can be encouraging words and words of determination. A person who believes in himself will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.

One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at something new, so we should not feel disappointed and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow.

Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes so that we can not make the same ones. If we do not try again, the lesson we have learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.

In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to become better and more confident. Furthermore, if we give up, we have no chance of attaining our goals any more, but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will succeed one day.

Possible meanings and the author’s opinions	●The words——Never give up can 【1】 others or oneself and express one’s determination. ●A person who wants to succeed should have the quality. So we should never give up.
The 【2】	●If we give up too easily, maybe we will achieve 【3】 , so when we fail in our first attempt at something new, we should not disappoint ourselves but try again. ●Always giving up means that we will not be able to make any progress. ●Never giving up will make us learn from the mistakes we’ve made before and learn the lesson so as not to make the same mistakes. ●To reach our goals and develop the confidence which can help us【4】 ourselves, so we must not give up but challenge ourselves.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】encourage

【2】reason(s )

【3】nothing

【4】improve

【5】chance

【解析】

試題分析：短文大意：本文主要告訴我們無論遇到什么樣的困難我們都不要放棄。如果我們放棄了我們將一無所獲，只要不放棄，即使失敗了，我們也學到了新的技能。另外，如果我們失敗了，我們可以從中吸取教訓，如果不再嘗試，吸取教訓的機會就浪費了。再者，只有不斷的嘗試，我們才能從中獲取自信，如果不嘗試，久而久之我們將懷疑自己的能力。

【1】根據第二段中These can be encouraging words and words of determination(決心).可知“永不言棄”可以鼓勵自己并且可以表達決心。所以填寫encourage。

【2】根據右欄都是介紹不放棄的原因可知該填寫名詞reason(s )。

【3】根據第三段中One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. 可知如果我們放棄，我們將一無所獲。所以填寫nothing。

【4】根據第四段中we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us improve our lives. 可知達到目標，培養(yǎng)信心可以提高我們自己。所以填寫improve。

【5】根據最后一段中 Further more, if we give up, we have no chance of achieving our goals any more ,可知如果我們放棄，我們就沒有機會達到目標。所以填寫chance。
