第三部分：閱讀理解（共20小題，每小題2分，滿分40分）

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。

Sometimes you make a wish, but when it comes. you decide you don’t want it. That’s what happened with Micky’s “birthday wish”.

Our family tradition is that you make a wish before you blow out the birthday candle.  After he blew out the candle. Micky told us that his wish was to win a prize in the Pine Ridge-match. We quickly told Micky, “If you tell people your wish. your wish won’t come true.” So we lit the candle again, and he made another wish.

Micky and Paul were both supposed to start playing at 5:30.

When Micky reported to the check-in table, the game organizers told him his opponent (對手) had phoned and said he was coming late. The officials told Micky he could choose not to play and be declared the victor of the first round of competition.

But Micky said he didn’t want to win by not playing. He wanted the experience of playing a great player.

Finally, the beast showed up. He was tall, smiling and relaxed. His serve (發(fā)球) was like lightning.

Micky had some good returns, but he lost quickly, 6-1, 6-0.

We congratulated Micky on having some good returns and a few great serves. And we noted that he had won the first game.

“I didn’t win that game,” Micky said. “I think he just gave it to me at the beginning because he arrived late.”      

“It was a birthday present.” I said, smiling.

“No, I refused my birthday present,” Micky said. In his eyes, his “birthday present” had been the chance to win by his opponent’s being late.

Micky ended up winning the “consolation prize(鼓勵獎)” a small prize that we didn’t know existed until Micky earned it by being undefeated in the consolation bracket (檔次).

We’ll’ never know what Micky’s second wish was - the wish he didn’t share with us.

    It seems to me that no matter how many birthdays you celebrate, as long as you enjoy challenges, you will never be “old”.

56. What kind of person is Micky?

A. A person who always gives up.           B. A person who is afraid of challenges.

C. One who enjoys challenges.                D. One who is selfish.

57. Why did Micky lose the match?

A. Because he gave up a good chance.            B. Because he let the others know his birthday wish.

C. Because he was proud of himself.        D. Because his opponent played much better than him

58. The prize Micky won was ______.

A. one he had expected                                 B. not a well-known one

C. a famous one                                    D. one he thought meaningless

59. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ______.

       A. enjoying challenges is helpful for one to keep “young”

       B. one will become old as he celebrates his birthdays

       C. one will stay young by continuously celebrating his birthdays

       D. challenges can make one never get old

    Who’s in control of your life? Who is pulling your string? For the majority of us, it’s other people – society, colleagues, friends, family or our religious community. We learned this way of operating when we were very young, of course．We were brainwashed．We discovered that feeling important and feeling accepted was a nice experience and so we learned to do everything we could to make other people like us．As Oscar Wilde puts it，“Most people are other people．Their thoughts are someone else’s opinions，their lives a mimicry(模仿)，their passions a quotation．”

    So when people tell us how wonderful we are，it makes us feel good．We long for this good feeling like a drug—we are addicted to it and seek it out wherever we can．Therefore，we are so eager for the approval of others that we live unhappy and limited lives，failing to do the things we really want to．Just as drug addicts and alcoholics live worsened lives to keep getting theirfix(一劑毒品)，we worsen our own existence to get our own constant fix of approval．

    But just as with any drug，there is a price to pay．The price of the approval drug is freedom--the freedom to be ourselves. The truth is that we cannot control what other people think．People have their own agenda，and they come with their own baggage and，in the end，they’re more interested in themselves than in you．Furthermore，if we try to live by the opinions of others，we will build our life on sinking sand．Everyone has a different way of thinking，and people change their opinions all the time．The person who tries to please everyone will only end up getting exhausted and probably pleasing no one in the process．

    So how can we take back control? I think there’s only one way--make a conscious decision to stop caring what other people think．We should guide ourselves by means of a set of values—not values imposed from the outside by others，but innate values which come from within．If we are driven by these values and not by the changing opinions and value systems of others，we will live a more authentic，effective，purposeful and happy life．

    A．we have thoughts similar to those of others

    B．most people have a variety of thoughts

    A．Changing opinions may cost us our freedom．

    B．We may lose ourselves to please others．

    C．We need to pay for what we want to get．

    D．The price of taking the drug is freedom．

    A.  it’s better to do what we like

    B．we shouldn’t care what others think

    C．we shouldn’t change our own opinions

    D．it's important to accept others’ opinions
