Not at all.But change things not because you cant accept things as they are, but because you enjoy the process of changing, learning and growing.Can we make this world a better place? You can say that youll continue to try to do things to help others, to grow as a person, to make a difference in this world.Thats the correct path you choose to take, because you enjoy that path.Therefore, when you find yourself judging and wishing for difference, try a different approach: accept, and understand.It might lead to some interesting results.1The author believes that we feel unhappy maybe because_.Ait is our natural emotion in the lifeBculture asks us to be different from othersCeveryone has their own opinions on thingsDwe dislike something in the beginning2Some readers think the words in the authors book are too_.AdepressingBfrighteningCdelighting Didealistic3In Paragraph 4, the underlined word “It” refers to_.Aacting well at work and in politicsBfeeling depressed for the news mediaCaccepting and understanding what has happenedDsaying something negative when bad things come4What is the main idea of the passage?AExpecting things to be different gives us hope.BAccepting can make our life happier and better.CTraditional culture becomes root of unhappiness.DJudging good or bad is important for our world.B(2014宁夏贺兰一中模拟)Proms have traditionally been an evening where the party continues long after the music stops. In the notsodistant past, promgoers found ways to celebrate until sunrise. Unfortunately, much of what they did during those predawn hours was dangerous, even deadly. In an effort to reduce careless behavior, including drinking and driving, schools and communities cooperated to give kids a safe, chaperoned (有人陪伴的) alternative. Today, school and parentsponsored postprom parties are the norm. Teens can celebrate into the early morning without many of the worries and dangers that previously existed. The parties are great for parents, too. They enjoy peace of mind knowing their children are in a healthy, watchedover environment.As wonderful as these afterparties can be, they clearly arent enough for some teens. If your daughter tells you “everyone” is going somewhere after the dance and that its okay with all the other kids parents, pick up the phone and start asking around. Find out if theyre really okay with the idea. What youre likely to hear from some parents is that theyre going along with it because they dont want to be the only parents to say “No”. Share your concerns with others, and say “No” together, or offer an alternative thats acceptable to everyone. When it comes to the prom, schools are getting much better at managing behavior. Many have rules dealing with everything from appropriate dress to acceptable styles of dance. Find out what your school administrators are doing to ensure that the prom continues to serve its original purpose. Their efforts can make a parents job easier. Use the schools regulations as reasons for the decisions and limits you make about clothes or the afterparty. If your daughter gets angry or makes demands that will blow prom out of proportion, remember if she cant have a reasonable response or accept “No” for an answer in a conversation about going to the prom, then she probably doesnt have the skills to be anyones prom date.5Which is one of the problems proms have that worry parents most?AThere might be dangerous behavior.BPromgoers dont tell their parents the end time.CProms usually dont last long but with drinking.DGoers have a little sense of safety while attending proms.6What do we know about the norm in Paragraph 1?AIt is sponsored by parents only.BThere are no dangers any longer.CParents can enjoy themselves as well.DKids can be watched over at the parties.7What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?AThe dance at the party.BParents concern.CYour daughters idea.DAn alternative.8Whats the main idea of the last paragraph?ASchools dont want students to be promgoers.BParents should use schools rules to deal with children going to proms.CParents rather than schools should watch over their kids.DParents should help their children stay far away from proms.短文改错There are too many cars in our town now. For a result, there are lots of traffic jams, and the air which we will breathe is terrible. Our town is very old but all the streets are quite narrow, so there is no room for bus lanes, which mean that buses always get stuck in the traffic jams, too. However, lots of accidents with cyclists often happen because of crowded street. But I think, there is a simple solution of these problems. The government should close city center to all traffic except buses and bikes, and build very larger car parks outside the town. Car drivers can take a bus into the city center and arrive at work or the shops relaxing and in a good mood.答案.
