【題目】On April 24th, another natural disaster-the oil spill(泄露)in the Gulf of Mexico, happened. Millions of dollars have been used to help stop the spill and to clean up the animals, beaches, and land spoiled by the oil. Unfortunately, when many of these chemicals are used, more damage is caused to the environment, especially to lives in the sea.
But governments seem to accept the risk of transporting mil-lions of tons of oil by ship every day so that we can fill up our cars and drive around and cause even more environmental damage. Interestingly, the biggest companies in the world produce cars, and the next biggest supply the gasoline to make them run.
Of all of today's environmental disasters, an oil spill may actually be one of the least serious. Although oil is poisonous, it is a natural material. In the end, it breaks down naturally. In 1967 the tanker Torrey Canyon sank off the Scilly Isles near the coast of England and spilled 120,000 tons of oil into the ocean. If you go there today, you will find it hard to see any sign that it ever happened.
However, we should be thinking more about reducing our dependency on oil. Governments should be encouraging research into new technologies, such as cars run by solar power, electricity, hydro-gen, and so on. Much of this research, in the past, was stopped by the oil, gas, and coal.
If the world's millions of cars were 10% more efficient (高效的),we would need many fewer tankers crossing the oceans each year. If this happened, the risks of oil spills would be reduced, and the air we breathe would be cleaner and fresher, too.
【1】What is the passage mainly talking about?
A. Oil spills pollution.
B. What oil pollution is.

A. By giving a description.
B. By making an argument.
C. By giving an example.
D. By drawing a diagram(圖表).
【3】Which suggestion is made for reducing oil tankers according to the passage?
A. We should build safer tankers in the near future.
B. We should develop new technologies to cut oil use.
C. Tankers should not be allowed to sail near the coastlines.
D. Countries should build more oil pipelines under the sea.

【題目】When something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say,"Well, it's so-and-so's fault. " or " I know I'm late, but it's not my fault; the car broke down. " It is probably not your fault, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do noting 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 remedy the situation. This is the winner's key to success.
Winners are great at overcoming 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 colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don't rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.
This is what being a winner is all about-creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what hap-pens. Winners don't have fewer 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 develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stop on for success.
【1】According to the passage, winners __________.
A. deal with problems rather than blame others
B. meet with fewer difficulties in their lives
C. have responsible and able colleagues
D. blame themselves rather than others
【2】The underlined word “remedy" in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to __________.
A. avoid B. accept
C. improve D. consider
【3】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 responsibility
C. tell him to find the cause of the problem
D. ask a more able colleague for help
【4】When problems occur, winners take them as __________.
A. excuses for their failures
B. barriers to greater power
C. challenges to their colleagues
D. chances for self-development

【題目】Long ago, in a far-away place, an old tribal chief found himself terminally ill. So he called three most promising young villagers to his bedside and said, “As I【1】(leave)you soon, I hope you can do one more thing for me. Young men, you three are all【2】(usual)strong and resourceful, so I’d like you to strive to climb that high mountain we have always been worshipping【3】a sacred place. Try to reach the top and then turn back to tell me about your findings.
Three days later, the first young man returned smartly dressed and said【4】(smile), “Lord, I’ve been to the mountaintop【5】I saw flowers of all sorts, spring water and singing birds. That’s a real nice place. ”
The old tribal chief replied with a smile, “Son, I’ve been there before. It’s not the mountaintop【6】the foot of the mountain. You can leave now. ”
A week later, the second young man also returned. “Lord, I’ve been to the mountaintop【7】a forest of tall pine trees and vultures circling in the air. That’s a really nice place. ”
“What a pity! ”said the chief. “Son, you’ve been halfway up the mountain rather than to the summit. Now you can leave. ”
A month later, the third young man showed up in rags, his hair off-colored but his eyes clear and bright.
“Lord, I succeeded in reaching the summit. There was nothing there but the highland wind and the blue sky【8】(hang)over the land. ”
“So you saw nothing at all? Not even【9】butterfly? ”
“No, Lord, nothing. All you can see is yourself. You just feel how insignificant you are in this infinite universe【10】standing at the top! ”
“Son, you’ve reached the real mountaintop. Congratulations! You will be undoubtedly made our new tribal chief! ”
