Now you’re a fool for helping. “I don’t want to get       ” seems to have become a national motto. One summer I was driving from my hometown of Tahoe City, California to New Orleans, Louisiana. In the middle of the desert, I passed a young man standing by the roadside. He had his thumb     and held a gas can in his other hand. I drove right by him. There was a time when you’d be called a jerk (混蛋) for passing by somebody _ ___ .
Several days later I was still  _  _ about the hitchhiker (搭便車(chē)的人), about how I didn’t even lift my foot  _ _  the accelerator (加速踏板) for him. “Does anyone stop any more?” I wondered. I         Blanche DuBois’s famous line—”I have always depended on the kindness of    .” Was that possible these days? One way to        this would be for a person to journey across the US without any money, just __ _ _ on the good will of others. What would happen? Would he find food, shelter and support?
The idea intrigued (激起興趣) me.
The week I turned 37, I realized that I had never done something truly crazy. __ _ _ I decided to really do it: travel from the Pacific to the Atlantic without a penny. I would only accept __   _ of rides, food and places to sleep. For six weeks I hitched 82 rides and covered 4,223 miles across 14 states. I was treated kindly everywhere I went. I was __ _ _ by people’s readiness to help a stranger.
In Oregon, a house painter named Mike __ _ _ the cold weather and asked if I had a coat. I didn’t, so he gave me a big green army-style jacket. A lumber-mill worker in Michigan named Tim invited me to a(n) _ _ _ _ dinner with his family in their shabby house. Then he offered me a tent. I     , but Tim insisted, packing it into my bag himself. I found people were generally compassionate. Hearing I had no money and would take none, people bought me food or __ _ _ with them whatever they happened to have. Those who had the _ _ _ _ to give often gave the most.
I’m __ _ _ to all the people I met for their rides, their food, their shelter and their gifts. My faith in ordinary folks was __ _ _. I am proud to live in a country where people are still willing to help. Now about the hitchhiker I met the other day, I am feeling  __ _ that I did not stop to take him along .

A high school history teacher once told us, “If you make one close friend in school, you will be most fortunate. A true friend is someone who stays with you for life.”      teaches that he is right. Good friendship is just not easily   .
It is possible that we simply do not stay in one place long enough for a true friendship to    . However, there can be      disagreement in the need for each of us to think carefully about what kind of friendship we want.
To most of us,     are considered very important, but we need to make it clear in our minds what kind of friendship we want. Are they to be close or      at arm’s length?

The sharing of     experiences including our tears as well as our dark dreams is the surest way to       friendships. But it must be done slowly and     only if there are signs of interest and action     .
What are some of the    of friendship? The greatest is the attraction to expect too much too soon. Deep relationships     time.

Have you ever wondered: What drives successful people? Take a look around and talk to your friends and seniors who are very successful, you will see all of them have adopted certain values which have proved vital for their success.
It is evident that successful people take initiative (主動(dòng)性). When they find something needs to be done, they just do it instead of waiting. They believe that responsibility is taken, not given. They weigh immediately what has to be done and then do it with pleasure, thus strengthening their reputation.
Successful people are enthusiastic about the things they do, especially when they believe in what they are doing. They are motivated by their own satisfaction and the joy they get from doing their work. They work hard even when no one is watching and they throw themselves into their work.
They do not fear failure. Failures and disappointments in life are unavoidable. It is failure that teaches us much more than success. Successful people pick themselves up after a fall and try again with more determination and commitment and learn from each failure. They associate with those they can learn from and enjoy the company of those who appreciate their achievement.
Having good IQ often gets a person what he wants but it’s really the EQ that keeps him there and helps him enjoy a high reputation. Successful people are polite to everyone and treat others with respect. By giving respect to others, they command respect for themselves.
Another important quality of successful persons is that they never complain. It’s better to praise others and win favor with them. So instead of complaining about a situation, successful people always try to solve it.
To put it shortly, take initiative and be enthusiastic about them. Do not be afraid to fail, but get up and start again. When you do so, success will be just around the corner.

We often talk about ourselves as if we have permanent genetic defects(缺陷) that can never be changed. “I’m impatient.” “I’m always behind.” “I always put things     !” You’ve surely heard them. Maybe you’ve used them to describe     .
These comments may come from stories about us that have been      for years—often from    childhood. These stories may have no     in fact. But they can set low expectations for us. As a child, my mother said to me, “Marshall, you have no mechanical (操作機(jī)械的) skills, and you will never have any mechanical skills for the rest of your life. ” How did these expectations      my development? I was never      to work on cars or be around     . When I was 18, I took the US Army’s Mechanical Aptitude Test. My scores were in the bottom for the entire nation!
Six years later,    , I was at California University, working on my doctor’s degree. One of my professors, Dr. Bob Tannbaum, asked me to write down things I did well and things I couldn’t do. For my strong points, I      down, “research, writing, analysis, and speaking. ” For the      , I wrote, “I have no mechanical skills. ”
Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life      and told him about my      performance on the Army test. Bob then asked, “     is it that you can solve       mathematical problems, but you can’t solve easy mechanical problems?”
Suddenly I realized that I didn’t      from some sort of genetic defect. I was just living out expectations that I had chosen to     . At that point, it wasn’t just my family and friends who had been      my belief that I was mechanically hopeless. And it wasn’t just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself, “You can’t do this!” I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to remain true.     , if we don’t treat ourselves as if we have genetic defects that we can never get over, we can do well in almost      we choose.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

During my high school years, the most important thing was what I was wearing to the Friday night dance and who I was taking. Although college was talked about, it was the least of my worries. 
When I was graduating eighth grade and starting high school, my older brother was graduating twelfth grade and going onto college. For my graduation, he gave me a card in which he wrote, “Enjoy your four years…, they go by fast.” I remember not believe him then, but looking back…, he was right. Those four years shaped who I was as a person, pushed me to my limit and encouraged me to become an adult. 
However, I was so completely absorbed in my junior and senior years of high school, that when someone spoke of college I brushed it off. I wasn't ready to leave my comfort zone of having all of my closest friends together and knowing what every single day was going to be like . Studying was something I did only AFTER I nailed my half-time dance performance. I knew my parents wanted me to go to college, so I told them I would go to commuity college (社區(qū)學(xué)院)and I didn’t worry about my SAT(美國(guó)大學(xué)入學(xué)考試)scores. 
When my senior year passed and everyone graduated and went off to their own college ,I started to wish I had done the same. My friends were living away, meeting new people, discovering new places, and I was living at home and driving to and from class every day. It seemed exactly like high school. I hated it! I thought college was supposed to be different! Why didn’t I take more time to research colleges and do the same? I ended up loving college and wishing I had four years to enjoy the campus(大學(xué)校園)atmosphere instead of two. 
My advice to anyone thinking about attending college is to think about it very seriously and look into all of your choices well ahead of time. Now I have graduate and I am working full time and I would do anything to go back to my high school days for a second chance!
小題1:Why didn’t the author worry about his SAT scores? 
A.He wanted to go to community college.
B.He had a gift for dance.
C.He was well prepared for the exam.
D.He believed his brother would help him.
小題2:When in high school, the author          .
A.drove to and from class every day
B.buried himself in his study all the time
C.enjoyed talking about future college life
D.lived in the school except on holidays
小題3:What did the author’s brother mean by “Enjoy your four years…, they go by fast.”?
A.He wished the author to have more dance.
B.He advised the author to value the years.
C.He encouraged the author to leave his comfort zone.
D.He suggested the author aim at a community college.
小題4:Talking of his high school years, the author feels       .
A.regretful

Have you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just be­cause the salesman talked you into it? Many people are afraid to support themselves. Dr Robert Albert, author of Stand Up, Speak Out, and Talk Back thinks it' s because their self-respect is low. "There's always a' superior' around­— a parent, a teacher, a boss— who knows better."
But Albert and other scientists are doing something to help people help themselves. They offer "assertiveness training" courses , A.T. for short. In the A.T. Course people learn that they have a right to be themselves. They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so. They learn to be aggressive without hurting other people.
In one way, learning to speak out is to get rid of fear. A group taking an A.T. Course will help the timid person to lose his fear. But A.T. uses an even stronger motive— he need to share. The timid person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels. Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-respect. If someone you face is more "important" than you, you may feel less of a person. You start to doubt your answers to problems. You can get to feel good about your­self. And once you do, you can learn to speak out.
小題1:The problem the writer talks about is that ________.
A.some people buy things they don't want
B.some people are afraid to speak out for their rights

Dreaming is a natural part of who we are. We explore our dreams and develop personal dreams. We even like to dream BIG!
For the most part our dreams and wishes focus on the end result. We see ourselves in love, married, driving a great car, on vacation, with tons of money, in a great career, etc. Dreaming about the end result is just fantasizing and wishing. Wishing relies on some magical force to make our dreams turn into reality, and we become unhappy as we’re not living(實(shí)現(xiàn)) our dreams.
So how can we make our dreams come true? That is a question we all often struggle with. Even though we struggle with the answer, the answer is not that clear. We make our dreams come true with the action we take.
In my opinion, if you dream about being in good health, then change your dream to see yourself working out and eating right day by day. See the beginning of the dream and let the dream build day by day with all the action that gets you to the end dream of you being in good health.
If you want riches, then change the dream. Dream of yourself going to school, developing a career, working hard and taking the steps to arrive at the destination. If you want love, love the process. Love the dating process(過(guò)程). Love yourself and the journey to find love.
Make all your dreams include the beginning, middle and end. Then when you are doing the action instead of thinking to yourself, “This is a drag. I don’t like working out,” or if you are having any negative thoughts about doing the work it takes to create your visions(夢(mèng)幻), realize then that every step of the way you are living your dream. You are living your dream because you made the action and journey part of your dream.
