the sense（理解）from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work—that your ticket to success is through rapping （说唱）or basketball or being a reality TV star．But the truth is，being successful is hard．You won't love every subject you study．You won't click with every teacher．Not every homework assignment will seem completely relevant（相关的）to your life right this minute．And you won't necessarily succeed at everything the first time you try．That's OK．Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who've had the most failures．JK Rowling's first Harry Potter book was rejected（拒绝）12 times before it finally came out．Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team，and he lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots（投球）during his career．But he once said：“I hav e failed over and over and over again in my life．And that is why I succeed．”These people succeeded because they understand that you can't let your failures define（定义）you--you have to let them teach you．You have to let them show you what to do differently next time．If you get in trouble，that doesn't mean you're a troublemaker，it means you need to try harder to behave．If you get a bad grade，that doesn't mean you're stupid，it lust means you need to spend more time studying．36．What's Obama's main point in this passage?A．Success is no big deal．B．Success takes hard work．C．It's easier for a basketball player to succeed．D．Grades matter if someone wants to succeed．37．The phrase “click with” in the passage probably means _________．A．fight with B．be satisfied withC．run into D．be popular with38．Obama mentioned JK Rowling and Michael Jordan to ________．A．teach the importance of success B．show that failure are everywhereC．explain different ways to success D．show that success doesn't come easily39．How should we treat failures，according to Obama?A．We should forget about them．B．We should let them define us．C．We should learn from them．D．We should stop them happening．40．If you get a bad grade in an exam，that means _________．A．you're stupid B．you're cleverC．you need to study harder D．you needn't study any more（B）If you go to a fast food restaurant you will probably see a lot of teenagers．Most teenagers love food with a lot of fat，oil，salt，and sugar．People often call this kind of food junk food．But bad eating habits go beyond fast food．Today，many teenagers are overweight mainly because of their had eating habits．We find many teenagers eat unhealthily．Some don't have breakfast before they go to school．Some don't have a proper（适当的）meal for lunch．In a recent survey of 2000 students，it was found that over two thirds of the students didn't have a healthy diet．Many of them didn't like vegetables or fruit．They preferred to eat food with a lot of salt，sugar，and fat．Parents today also worry about their children's diet．Some doctors give the following advice：Teenagers shouldn't eat too much junk food．Teenagers shouldn't eat food with too much salt．Salt can cause high blood pressure（高血压）in the future．Teenagers should eat food with less fat，oil，and sugar．Teenagers need to eat some fruit and vegetables every day．Fruit and vegetables are rich in vitamins and have little fat．Teenagers need to drink milk every day．Milk will help their bones（骨骼）grow．Teenagers need to eat breakfast every day．It's good for their bodies and minds．41．According to the passage，in the survey of 2000 students，how many of them didn't have a healthy diet?A．Less than 1300． B．More than 1300． C．200．D．All of them．42．What does the underlined word “beyo n d” mean in Chinese

blood pressure．C．The main reason why many teenagers are overweight is that they don't take exercise．D．Children should eat more fruit and drink more milk．44．How many pieces of advice do the doctors give in this passage?A．4 B．5 C．6 D．745．The best title for this passage is ________．A．Bad habits B．Advice on healthy dietsC．Unhealthy food D．Junk food任务型阅读：（C）Broken beautyA water bearer（运水工）in India had two large pots（46）One pot had a crack （裂缝）and the other was perfect．One always came home half empty and the other was full．For two years this went on．The water bearer carried one and one--half pots full of water to his master's（主人）house．The poor cracked pot was ashamed of（羞愧）itself．One day it spoke to the bearer by the stream（小河）．“I a m ashamed of myself，and I want to apologize．”“Why?”

pot．The bearer felt sorry and said：“As we retu rn to the master's house，I want you to notice（注意）the beautiful flowers along tile road．”As they went up the hill，the cracked pot took notice of the beautiful wild flowers and this comforted it some．The bearer said：“Did you notice that there w ere flowers only on your side，but not on the other pot’s side? I planted flower seeds（种子）on your side，and every day while we walk back from the stream，you have watered them．For two years I have been able to pick those beautiful flowers to decorate（装饰）my master's table．”We are all cracked pots．But we shouldn't be ashamed，because we can be the cause （根源）of beauty．Know that in our weakness，we can find our strength（优势）．根据短文内容，完成下面的任务：任务一将文中划线的两个句子翻译成汉语46．One pot had a crack（裂缝）and the other was perfect．47．Because of my crack，you have to do all this work，and you don’t get full value （价值）for your efforts．任务二回答下列问题：48．Why would there be wild flowers on the way?49．What were the flowers used for?50．What can we learn from the story?（D）An old couple（夫妇）in some very old clothes walked into the university president's office without an appointment．“We had a son that attended Harvard for one year．He loved Harvard．He was happy here．About a year ago，he died in an accident．（53）My husband and I would like to build a memorial（纪念物）for him somewhere in your university．”The president was surprised．“Madam，” he said，“we can't put up a statue for every Hazard student who died．If we did，this place would look like a cemetery （墓地）．” “Oh，no，” the lady explained quickly，“we don't want to put up a statue．We would like to give a building to Harvard．”The president looked at their old clothes and said，“A building? Do you know how much a building costs? We have over seven and a half million dollars at Hazard．”The lady was silent for a moment．The president felt happy．He thought that they would leave．Then the lady turned to her husband and said quietly，“Is that all it costs to start a university? （54）Why don't we just start our own?” Her husband agreed．Then Mr. and Mrs. Leland Stanford walked away．They went to Palo Alto，California．There they built Stanford University，in memory of their son that Harvard no longer cared about．任务一：根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
