Do you want to be successful in everything you do? If so, then how? Here is an example.
There was a farmer who   36  corn（玉米）all his life. Each year he took his corn to the market. Then each time his corn was chosen as the   37  and won the first prize.
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something surprising about how he grew it. The farmer   38  his seed（做種子的) corn to his neighbors.
"How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?" the reporter asked. "You know they are taking part in the   39  with you each year."
"Why, sir," said the farmer, "didn't you know? The   40  picks up pollen (花粉) from the corn and moves it quickly from field to field. If my neighbors grow   41  corn, cross-pollination (異花傳粉) will affect the quality of my corn. So if I want to grow good corn, I must help my neighbors to grow good corn. "
The farmer knows much about the connection of life. His corn cannot improve unless his neighbor's corn improves.
As a great man says, "We make a living by what we grow; we make a life by what we give." We can't   42  without food, clothes, and many other things. However, a meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get,   43  by how much we can give others. Giving, instead of taking, makes us    44   from other animals.
So those who choose to live well must help others to live well and those who choose to be happy must help others to find   45  in their life.

試題分析：小題1:There was a farmer who      corn all his life.是說(shuō)這個(gè)農(nóng)民一生都在種玉米。所以選grew。
小題2:后面一句won the first prize說(shuō)他獲得第一名，由此推斷：他的玉米應(yīng)該是最好的，best。
小題3:在下文中，How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?(記者問(wèn)農(nóng)民為什么與鄰居分享他的種子)，從中可以看出是農(nóng)民為鄰居提供的種子，而不是借給（A），出示（B）和推薦（D）的。
小題4:從第二段中Then each time his corn was chosen as the best and won the first prize，可以看出他們參加的是一年一度的競(jìng)賽competition。
小題5:玉米的傳授花粉，是靠風(fēng)傳播的，所以選wind。
小題6:從下文cross-pollination (異花傳粉) will affect the quality of my corn.一句可以看出，農(nóng)民認(rèn)為如果鄰居種不好的種子必然會(huì)影響自己玉米的質(zhì)量。所以要選bad。
小題7:本句的后面說(shuō)without food, clothes, and many other things可以看出，沒(méi)有食物，當(dāng)然就不能生存（live）了。
小題8:本句a meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get,      by how much we can give others的意思是說(shuō)，有意義的人生不是由獲取多少?zèng)Q定的，而是取決于給予了多少。所以應(yīng)用表示轉(zhuǎn)折的詞but。
小題9:人有著很高的世界觀和人生觀，知道給予和索取的關(guān)系。給予而不是索取讓我們區(qū)別于動(dòng)物。所以用different from。
小題10:本句So those who choose to live well must help others to live well and those who choose to be happy must help others to find      in their life.的意思應(yīng)該是：那些選擇過(guò)得好的人，必須幫別人過(guò)得好；那些選擇快樂(lè)的人，必須幫別人發(fā)現(xiàn)快樂(lè)。所以填happiness。
點(diǎn)評(píng)：完形填空題是有一定難度的，所以對(duì)于本文，應(yīng)該多讀幾遍，聯(lián)系上下文，找出內(nèi)在的關(guān)系。

On the first day of school our professor introduced himself and asked us to get to know someone we didn’t know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. “Hi, girl! My name is Rose, I’m 87 years old.”
“Why are you in college at such a young age?” I asked jokingly.
“I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!”she replied.  Rose became a college symbol(象征) this year and she easily on her from the other students.
At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football party. I’ll never forget what she taught us.

“There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do anything, you will turn 20 years older. If I am 87 years old, and stay in bed for a year, and never do anything, I will turn 88. Anybody can grow older. But every minute counts for young men,” she added.

What would you do if a stranger gave you some medicine and it would keep you slim or help you do well in exams? Would you take it?
Students at Shenzhen Luohu Foreign Language Middle School have learned to keep themselves safe by saying “no”. In fact, what those strangers want to give them are drugs (毒品) . Drugs are dangerous to your health!
“Because teens don't know much about drugs, they might want to try them,” said Zhang Dongsheng, the director of Shenzhen Drug Control Office.

科目：初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

A famous study was done in a school by a professor （教授） from a university. At the start of the school year, the teachers were given the names of five children. They were told that these five were the most excellent students in the class. But the fact was that these students were only average(中等)，and they were not the best students at all. Well, guess what? At the end of the year, all the five average students scored among the highest in the class.
　　What made these average students change so much to become top students？The only difference was the change in their teachers’ attitude(態(tài)度). Because the teachers believed that these five kids were the top students，they expected(期望) more from them. And so these five average students began to believe and expect more from themselves. So they worked harder to do as well as they could.
　　Do you know why? If you expect the best from people, they’ll usually want to give you their best. A great leader said, “Treat(對(duì)待) a person just how he appears to be on the outside, and you’ll make him even worse. But treat a person like he’s already a success，and you’ll help make him the best he can be.”
　　Like the true story of 7-year-old Johnny, his teacher got so angry with him that one day she said，“Johnny，you’re the naughtiest(最頑皮的) boy in this class. I’m sure you’ll never change.” The next year Johnny had a new teacher. And on the first day of class，she met with Johnny after school and said，“Johnny, I’ve heard a lot about you! But do you know that I don’t believe a word of it.” And every day after that, this new teacher treated Johnny as if he was one of the smartest students even when Johnny did naughty things. Later on, Johnny became a school leader. Because that’s the power of our belief(信任) and attitude(態(tài)度) toward children.
小題1:The professor started his research(研究)by _______.
A．teaching the five children himself
B．a(chǎn)sking the five children to find a new teacher
C．telling the five students to work harder than ever before
D．telling the teacher the five students were the best in the class
小題2:The five average students became top students mainly because of ________.
A．the professor’s study
B．the teachers’ hard work
C．the change in the teachers’ attitude
D．the change in the professor’s attitude
小題3:Why did the writer tell us the story of 7-year-old Johnny？
A．To let us know how good his new teacher was.
B．To show the importance of encouragement.
C．To show that the boy was clever enough.
D．To let us know the famous boy.
小題4:The writer writes the passage mainly by ______.
A．giving reasons and result
B．giving result and examples
C．describing what he thinks
D．a(chǎn)sking and answering questions
小題5:What does the passage mainly tell us？
A．If you want to get more，you should have new teachers.
B．A professor’s study can help you score highest.
C．Only teachers can make you a top student.
D．Attitude and belief can change a person.

In most parts of the world, many students help their schools make less pollution. They join “environment clubs”. In an environment club, people work together to make our environment clear.
Here are some things students often do.
No-garbage lunches. How much do you throw away after lunch? Environment clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags that can be used again. Every week they will choose the classes that make the least garbage and report them to the whole school!
No-car day. On a no-car day, nobody comes to school in a car--- not the students and not the teachers! Cars give pollution to our air, so remember: Walk, jog, bike or run. Use your legs! It’s lots of fun!
Turn off the water! Do you know that some toilets can waste twenty to forty m3  of water an hour! In a year, that would fill a small river! In environment clubs, students mend those broken toilets. We love our environment. Let’s work together to make it clean.
小題1:Environment clubs ask students _______.
A．to run to school every day
B．to take exercise every day
