One morning, in addition to his usual lunch bag, Molly handed him a second paper bag. This one was worn and held together with staples (订书钉) 。 “Why two bags?” her father asked. “The other is something else,” Molly answered. “Whats in it?” “Just some stuff. Take it with you.” Not wanting to discuss the matter, he put both bags into his briefcase, kissed Molly and rushed off. At midday he opened Mollys bag and took out the contents: two hair ribbons(丝带), three small stones, a plastic dinosaur, a tiny sea shell, a small doll, and 13 pennies The busy father smiled, finished eating, and swept the desk clean into the wastebasket, Mollys stuff included.That evening, Molly ran up behind him as he read the paper. “Wheres my bag?” “What bag?” “The one I gave you this morning.” “I left it at the office. Why?” “I forgot to put this note in it,” she said. “And, besides, Daddy, the things in the sack are the things I really like I thought you might like to play with them. You didnt lose the bag, did you, Daddy?” “Oh, no,” he said, lying. “I just forgot to bring it home. Ill bring it tomorrow.” While Molly hugged her fathers neck, he unfolded the note that read: “I love you, Daddy.” Molly had given him her treasures all that a 7-year-old held dear. Love in a paper bag, and he missed it not only missed it, but had thrown it in the wastebasket. So back he went to the office. Just ahead of the night janitor(看门人), he picked up the wastebasket. He put the treasures inside and carried it home carefully. The bag didnt look so good, but the stuff was all there and thats what counted. After dinner, he asked Molly to tell him about the stuff in the sack. It took a long time to tell. Everything had a story or a memory. “Sometimes I think of all the great times in this sweet life,” he thought. We should all remember that its not the destination that counts in life, but the journey. That journey with the people we love is all that really matters. It is such a simple truth but it is so easily forgotten.56. Why did Molly give her father a second bag? A. She didnt want to keep the things in the bag. B. She hoped those things would bring happiness to her father. C. She wanted to remind her father of the stories behind the things. D. She enjoyed playing with her father.57. How did father deal with the bag after he opened it?A. He kept it in the drawer.B. He took it back home.C. He threw it into the wastebasket.D. He put it on his table.58. After father heard what his daughter said, he felt_. A. regretful B. surprised C. sad D. satisfied59. Which of the following is the most suitable title of the passage?A. An important journeyB. Two bagsC. Father and daughterD. Love in a paper bagBThe expression “Go for it!” is a way of encouraging someone to try something. “Go for it!” means you should not worry about failure or be too careful. You should take a chance, be brave, and act firmly. “Go for it!” gets name from football. Not football as it is played in most countries such as England, Egypt or Japan, but the kind of football played in the United States and Canada. One of the most exciting times in football comes when a team has failed, after three attempts, to move the ball forward ten yards. The team must make a critical decision. The conservative choice is to kick the ball and accept temporary defeat in order to gain a good position for your team the next time it gets the ball. The more exciting choice, however, is to try a fourth and final time to gain the remaining yards needed. In the nineteen eighties, people began using this expression in many kinds of situations to encourage someone to act bravely. There is no guarantee that the action you “Go for it!” will succeed. But that is the chance you take when you decide to go for it. You put your fears behind. You choose courage over safety. You hold your breath and go for it.60. The expression “Go for it!” comes from_.A. English football B. Egyptian football C. Japanese football D. American football61. According to the passage, when we decide to go for it, we only consider_. A. safety B. action C. result D. situation62. In which of the following situations should we use the expression nowadays?A. We decide to avoid trouble or danger for the future. B. We try to improve our English for better education.C. We need to make a quick decision at the last moment.D. We have to make a choice between success and failure.CWhen something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, its so-and-sos fault.” Or “I know Im late, its not my fault; the car broke down.” It is probably not your fault, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winners key to success. Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need, For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person . Ask to work with a different person, or dont rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well. This is what being a winner is all about-creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners dont have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “Whose fault it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just the stepping stone for success.63. According to the passage, winners_.A. deal with problems rather than blame others B. meet with fewer difficulties in their livesC. have responsible and able colleaguesD. blame themselves rather than others64. The underlined word remedy in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _. A. avoid B. accept C. improve D. consider65. When problems occur, winners take them as_.A. excuses for their failuresB. barriers to greater powerC. challenges to their colleaguesD. chances for self-development66. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. A Winners SecretB. A Winners ProblemC. A Winners OpportunityD. A Winners AchievementDWhile drunken driving may be on the decline, traffic safety experts remain puzzled over how to deal with another alcohol related danger: drunken pedestrians(行人).Pedestrians struck and killed by cars often are extremely drunk. In fact, they are intoxicated(喝醉的) more frequently and with higher blood alcohol levels than drunken drivers who are killed in accidents, various studies have shown. Forty percent of adult pedestrians involved in fatal crashes have a blood alcohol level of at least 0.10, which by law in most states means intoxication, compared to only 25 percent of drivers in deadly accidents, according to recent federal data.Some types of pedestrain accidents have been declining nationally, especially those involving children, but the number of adult pedestrians who are drunk when killed in traffic has remained relatively steady at 2500 a year. The total number of pedestrians killed annually in U.S. traffic accidents is at least 7000, or one of every seven highway accidents resulting in death.“Were dealing here, we think, with a very severe drinking problem that leads to a severe highway safety problem,” said Richard Blomberg, president of Dunlap and Associates Inc, in Norwalk, Coon.Blomberg, whose consulting company found a very high rate of alcohol involvement in a controlled study of pedestrian accidents in New Orleans, was among several researchers who spoke on the topic at the annual meeting of the Research councils Transportation Research Board(TRB) in Washington in January.Pedestrian accidents have not received enough attention in the past, according to Kay Colpitts, who chairs the boards committee on pedestrians. Few methods exist to monitor walking habits, she said, and researchers have been confused about how to prevent disasters.67. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Traffic Safety. B. Drunken Drivers.C. Drunken Pedestrian Accidents. D. A Severe Highway Safety Problem.68. Among the causes of walkers accidents, the most serious problem is _. A. long delays in traffic signals that may make people cross streets ignoring traffic rulesB. alcoholC. a lack of adult keeping eyes on many children involved in accidentsD. former drunken drivers whose licenses are not allowed to use for a time69.
