Night after night, my mother came to my bed, even long after my childhood years. She would   21  down and push my long hair out of the way, and then kiss my forehead.

 I don’t remember when it first started  22  me-her hands pushing my hair that way, for they felt work-worn and rough  23  my young skin. Finally , one night, I shouted out at her, “Don’t do that any more-your hands are too rough!” she made no  24  and left quietly.

But never again did my mother do it with that familiar expression of her  25  .

With the passing years, my   26  returned to that night time after time. By then I   27  my mother’s hands and her goodnight kiss. Sometimes the incident seemed very  28  , sometimes far away, but always it was  29  in the back of my mind.

The years have passed, and I’m not a little girl any more. Mom is in her seventies, and those hands I once  30  to be so rough are still doing things for me and my family.

Now, Mom no longer has Dad and lives  31  . One night on Thanksgiving Eve, I found myself  32  to her house to spend the night with her. As I slept in the bedroom of my youth, a familiar hand hesitantly ran across my face to  33  the hair from my forehead. Then a   34  , ever so gently , touched my forehead. I burst into tears.

In my memory, thousands of times, I   35  the night my young voice complained. Catching Mom’s hand in hand, I told her how  36  I was for that night. I thought she’d remember  37  I did. But Mom didn’t know what I was talking about. She had already forgotten and   38  long ago.

That night, I fell asleep with a new  39  for my gentle mother and her caring hands. And the guilt that I had carried around for so long was   40  to be found.

I told my friend Graham that I often cycle two miles from my house to the town centre but unfortunately there is a big hill on the route.He replied,“You mean fortunately.”He explained that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided.

    My attitude to the hill has now changed.I used to grumble as I approached it but now I tell myself the following.This hill will exercise my heart and lungs.It will help me to lose weight and get fit.It will mean that I live longer.This hill is my friend.Finally I comfort myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationery exercise bicycles when I call get the same value for free.I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill.

Problems are there to be faced and overcome.We cannot achieve anything with an easy life.Helen Keller was thefirst deaf and blind person to gain a university degree.Her activism and writing proved inspirational.She wrote,“Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet.Only through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened,vision cleared,ambition inspired and success achieved.”   

   One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude towards adversity(逆境).From time to time we all face hardships,problems.a(chǎn)ccidents、afflictions and difficulties.Some are of our making but many confront us through no fault of our own.While we cannot choose the adversity we can choose our attitude towards it.

Douglas Bader was 21 when in 193l he had both legs cut off following a flying accident.He was deter-mined to fly again and went on to become one of the leading flying aces in the Battle of Britain with 22 aerial victories over the Germans.He was an inspiration to others during the war.He said,“Don't listen to any-one who tells you that you can’t do this or that.That's nonsense.Make up your mind,you'll never use crutches(拐杖)or a stick,then have a go at everything.Go to school,join in all the games you can.Go anywhere you want to.But never,never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible.”

    The biographies(傳記)of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overcome the difficulties they faced.The common thread is that they did not become depressed.They chose their attitude.They chose to be positive.They took on the challenge.They won.

Nevertheless.there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity.

53. Which of the following is true according to the author of the passage?

A.Climbing hills on bicycles is the best way to take exercise.

B.People are silly to pay to go to the gym.

  C.Those who want to achieve success can't expect to live all easy lire.

  D.People's attitude towards adversity is the only factor that determines whether they will succeed.

54.By quoting what Douglas Bader said,the author intends to tell us“             .”

A.Failure is the mother of Success.   

B.A fall into the pit,a gain in your wit.

C.If you venture nothing,you will have nothing. 

D.Nothing is difficult to the man who will try.

55.Following this passage,the author will further talk about        

  A.how his friend helped him to change his attitude towards the adversity he faced

  B.what steps to take to change your attitude towards the adversity you face

  C.what great people have in common

D.why it is important to keep optimistic in face of adversity

56.Which of the following can best function as the title of the passage?

A.Face adversity with a smile                    B.Different attitudes towards adversity

Smoking is habit that’s closely linked to certain times and places. If you break these links, you can break the habit. The best way of doing this is to avoid the situations where you want a cigarette. If you can’t avoid them, then you will have to fight off the temptation(誘惑). Sit down and think about when and where you usually have a cigarette. For example, do you always have one after breakfast? After other meals? In breaks at work? When you are watching television? With friends in the pub? Once you stop smoking, these times and places are going to be the danger spots. So work out how you are going to deal with them.

It will also help if you can make new habits to break the old one of smoking. So plan some new activities to replace smoking-things to draw away your attention, things to do with your hands, and different ways to deal with tensions.

Some people find it helps if they cut down on cigarettes before they actually give up. It’s one way of preparing for the day you stop for good.

    Beanie said Australia's second largest state would become the first to use recycled water for drinking.

    Water is recycled in Britain and pans of northern Europe along with the US and Israel.

    But Australians have never liked the idea.

    To try to change the way Australians think,Prime Minister.John Howard and Environment Minister Malcolm Turnbull have adhered to Queensland’s move.

   “I am very strongly for recycling and Mr.Beattie is right and I agree with him completely.”Howard said.

   “Australian cities.a(chǎn)ll now facing water shortages because of the worst drought on record.must start to use recycled water.”added Turnbull.“All of our big cities have to widen tile range of water sources to include sources which are not dependent on rainfall.”

  B.Australians should develop more water sources to live through the hard time

  C.Australians can’t depend upon rainwater,which is not suitable for drinking.

  D.Australian government has no ability to solve the problem of water shortage

51.The underlined phrase“adhered to”inParagraph 9 probably means

  A.disliked          B.gone against       C.supported           D.doubted

52.It can be inferred from what Premier Peter Beattie said that
