quite simply because we forget that failure is part of the human life and that every person has the right to fail. every person is able to fight failure and finally succeed.most parents work hard at preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. one way is to lower standards(标准). when a child finishes making a table, the mother describes it as “perfect” even though it doesnt stand still. another way is to blame others. if john fails in science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.theres a problem with the two ways. it makes a child unprepared for life in the real world. young children need to learn that no one can be best at everything, no one can win all the time, and that its possible to enjoy a game even when you dont win. a child often feels terrible, of course, when he is not invited to a birthday party, or is not chosen into a football team. but parents should not say “it doesnt matter.” quickly. the young should be allowed to experience failure and be helped to come out of it.failure never gives people pleasure. it hurts both adults and children. but it can be really good to your life when you learn to use it. you must learn to ask “why did i fail?” . dont blame anyone else. ask yourself what you did wrong and how you can improve. if someone else can help, dont be shy about asking them. success just repeats what has been done. it is not as good a teacher as failure. you can learn how to give a good party from an unsuccessful one.33how do most parents prevent their children from failure?a. they dont tell them that they have failed. b. they give them some presents.c. they dont blame others. d. they help them to come out of failure.34which of the following does a person need to learn when he fails?a. its impossible to enjoy a game if he misses it. b. he is the worst of all.c. his teammates are not good enough.d. its natural not to win a game and no one can win all the time.35which would be the best title for the passage?a. learning from failureb. ways of preventing failurec. reasons of failured. getting pleasure from failure第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项选项中有两项为多余选项。building trust in a relationship againtrust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences. 36_ trust is a risk. but you cant be successful when theres a lack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake.unfortunately, weve all been victims of betrayal. whether weve been stolen from, lied to, misled, or cheated on, there are different levels of losing trust. sometimes people simply cant trust anymore. 37_ its understandable, but if youre willing to build trust in a relationship again, we have some steps you can take to get you there.l 38_having confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your well-being.l 39_if youve been betrayed, you are the victim of your circumstance. but theres a difference between being a victim and living with a “victim mentality”. at some point in all of our lives, well have our trust tested or violated.l you didnt lose “everything”. once trust is lost, what is left? instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle, look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life. 40 instead, its a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness.a. learn to really trust yourself.b. it is putting confidence in someone.c. stop regarding yourself as the victim.d. remember that you can expect the best in return.e. theyve been too badly hurt and they cant bear to let it happen again.f. this knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships.g. seeing the positive side of things doesnt mean youre ignoring what happened.第三部分 英语知识运用第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） at the airport, i looked closely at the face of my son, daniel, his backpack by his side. we were saying good-bye. in a few hours he would be flying to france to 41 a different life . it was a transitional（过渡期的）time in daniels life. i wanted to leave him some words of 42 . but nothing came from my 43 and this was not the first time i had let such a moment 44 . when daniel was five, i took him to the school-bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. he looked at me - as he did now. “what is it going to be like, dad?
