Failure is common in our life. No one can avoid them. When we fail in doing something, we often feel very depressing. Sometimes failure can make us lose hearts. So no one are willing to fail. On the contrary, success can bring us sense of pride. If one enjoys his continuous success in his career, he will have confidence to himself. Therefore, failure is the mother of success. A failure doesn’t mean one can never be successfully. Those who are always afraid of failure they will never succeed. In a word, as long as we can get some lessons and experiences from our failure, we’ll be sure to succeed.

【題目】There is an old saying about volunteer work that goes like this: “ No one can do everything, but everyone can do something.”

Today, many people volunteer their time and energy to help others. There are a lot of ways to meet other people’s needs. For example, some volunteers provide help after a disaster. Others are happy to get dirty while repairing homes or planting trees or flowers in poor neighborhoods. Young people see suffering and loneliness around them and find ways to help. And history lovers help archeologists(考古學(xué)家) search for ancient objects to help deepen our knowledge of the past.

Volunteers work in many areas around the world, including Haiti. More than two years have passed since a 7.0 earthquake shook the nation. The exact number of people who died may never be known. Thousands of survivors of the Haitian earthquakes still live in temporary(臨時的) shelters. Last year, former American President Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn joined five hundred volunteers in the town of Leogane to build houses.

Organizations do not have to be large to get volunteers. An activist group in Dharamsala, India is a good example, Jodie Underhill from England arrived in northern India several years ago. She planned to volunteer for an environmental project. She could almost not believe how much rubbish was ruining some of the area’s most beautiful sights. Jodie Underhill learned about how to deal with the rubbish while taking part in other volunteer projects. But soon enough she formed her own group, Mountain Cleaners. Jodie Underhill says the work is very hard. But she praises the group’s efforts as a wonderful experience. The young Englishwoman says the Indian media started calling her “Garbage Girl”. And she says she was pleased with the name.

American teenagers also volunteer in many ways .

【1】The first paragraph serves as a(n) ___________.

A. explanation B. introduction

【2】What did former American President Jimmy Carter do as a volunteer?

A. He planted trees and flowers in Haiti.

B. He gave some money to the poor in Haiti.

C. He helped archeologists search for ancient objects.

D. He helped to build houses after the earthquake in Haiti

【3】What can we learn from the text?

A. It is difficult for small organizations to get volunteers.

B. The number of people died in Haiti’s earthquake is unclear.

C. Most of the volunteers are good at collecting money.

D. History lovers mainly learn about history from ancient objects.

【4】What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?

A. How to join in a volunteer group

B. Why people offer their services to others

C. The benefits that volunteers can gain

D. The volunteer work that American teenagers do.

【題目】Japanese students work very hard but many are unhappy. They feel heavy pressures from their parents to do well in school. Most students are always being told by their parents to study harder so that they can have a wonderful life. Though this may be good ideas for those very bright students, it can have very bad results for many students who are not quick enough at learning.

Unfortunately, a number of students killed themselves. Others are after comfort in using drugs. Some do bad things with trouble-makers and turn to crime. Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have disappointed their parents. Such students feel that they are less important and leave school before they have finished their study.

It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any way. Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers’ work to help their children. To make matters worse, a lot of parents send their children to special schools called juku-cram schools. These schools are open during the evening and on weekends, and their only purpose is to prepare students to pass exams. They do not try to educate students in any real sense of the real world. It thus comes as a shock to realize that almost three quarters of the junior or high school population attend these cram schools.

Ordinary Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students’ hair to their clothes and things in their school bag. Child psychologists now think that such strict rules often lead to a feeling of being unsafe and being unable to fit into society. They regard the rules as being harmful to the development of each student. They believe that no sense of moral values is developed and that students are given neither guidance nor training in becoming good citizens.

【1】A lot of Japanese students are unhappy at school because_______.

A. they work very hard

B. they find they can't do well at school

C. they feel unimportant

D. they are under too much pressure

【2】Because of their failure at school, some students take drugs to .

A. kill themselves B. seek comfort

C. disappoint their parents D. make trouble

【3】In juku-cram schools students_________.

A. are taken good care of by the teachers

B. feel no pressure

C. are trained to pass exams

D. can learn a lot of useful things

【4】In ordinary Japanese schools,______________ .

A. there are strict rules

B. students feel safe

C. students can do anything

D. learning is not important

One day, Dad and I was taking a walk by the lake when a boy rode by with a very high speed. Suddenly, we heard the loud scream. We turned around and saw the boy struggling in the lake, crying out help. Daddy and I ran towards him quickly and had pulled him out of the water.
