the result of gruelling hard work and intense practice.usually athletes say how hard it is to win the big games.at the opposite end of the spectrum，however，is the fact that losing the big game，or，in my case，all the games，can be even tougher.from the spectatorspoint of view，last years basketball season for my high school team was nothing short of an embarrassment.and while 0 and 20 is certainly nothing to be proud of，that season had a bigger impact on me than any other，and probably more than any season since.as a team captain，i knew it probably wouldnt be the easiest year，but did i ever think we would lose every game？of course not.since six of our top players had graduated，it was clear that we were a young team who would struggle.the struggle began earlier than expected，though，as our teams starting center was suspended for the season，and two key members decided to quit after two weeks.at some point，quitting probably passed through every players mind，but，in the end，we all stuck it out，vowing to work even harder.then there came a time when even our own coach had given up on us.personally，i felt like it was no longer worth giving my all.i thought，if even the coach doesnt believe in us，why should i？but just as my hope began to fade，a teammate called a meeting.he said，“nobody thinks were going to win，and heck，we may not，but，as teammates and friends，we owe it to each other to give it our all every game.”sure，it was a little clich (陈旧的)，but it was that moment that taught me how to be a leader.it hit me then that i may have been a captain，but i，like others in my position，certainly didnt deserve the role.as a leader you can never quit on the team who looks up to you.it is one thing to be named captain and feel great and go through the motions，but it is quite another to be a real captain and make sure everyone works to their potential all the time.i am sure it is great to go through high school without losing and bringing home awards.but in all honesty，i relish the fact that my team lost every game last year.it may not help me to become a better basketball player，but it already has made me a better leader and person.56what was the biggest problem with the authors team last season?aseveral key members were unable to play the games.btheir coach no longer wanted to instruct them.cthere were no actual leaders on the team.dmost of players lost hope and wanted to quit.57in the text，the author seems to suggest that a good leader should_.abe confident about himselfbmake sure everyone goes all outcwork hard to win the gamesdfeel great about his team58by saying “we owe it to each other to give it our all every game.”(paragraph 4) the teammate means that all of them should_.abe responsible for the lossesbtry their best on the courtcfeel thankful for what theyve donedget together to win every game59what is the main idea the author aims to express in the text?asuccess is the result of hard work.ba friend in need is a friend indeed.cone can learn something from the failure.da real leader should never give up.b(2010合肥第四次检测)mcdonnell，who has made oil drilling off virginias coast，one of his administrations top tasks，flew to houston on monday to advertise the benefits of offshore drilling at a national conference.he told reporters before he left that he does not want to postpone drilling but to learn from the accident off louisianas coast.“what we do as americans is that we find out what went wrong and how can we do things better，” mcdonnell said.“i think thats the spirit of american people.”president obama announced in march that virginia will become one of the first east coast states to drill offshore for oil and natural gas.companies could conduct exploratory drilling in virginias waters 50 miles off the coast late next year or early in 2012.in virginia beach，the states largest city and one that relies heavily on tourism，mayor will sessoms said he would be worried if the timetable was not changed.sessoms supported drilling and helped the city pass a resolution (决议) in favor of it，in part to help the tourism industry by keeping the cost of gas down.but，he said，the louisiana accident was a wakeup call.“its alarming to me，” sessoms said.“it gives me great concern.”obama swore friday that no expansion of offshore oil drilling would take place until investigations into the louisiana accident were complete.virginias officials，who support drilling，said they agree that drilling should be delayed.sen.mark warner said it was “appropriate” for obama to delay offshore projects. mcdonnell said he wants to see a full investigation into the louisiana accident，but he still thinks that drilling could begin off virginias coast as soon as next year or early 2012.mcdonnell has also said that drilling off virginias coast would create thousands of jobs，as well as lessen us dependence on foreign oil.a recent explosion and fire on an exploratory well in the gulf (海湾) of mexico left 11 workers missing and dead.crude oil (原油) has been leaking into the gulf since，inching closer to the coasts of louisiana，alabama and mississippi.the accident confirmed the worst fears of environmental groups and people already worried that possible spills (溢出) could harm plants，animals，and tourism.60what was mcdonnells opinion about drilling off virginias coast?ait should be stopped as it may cause damage to the environment.bit should be delayed due to the gulf oil accident.cit has a lot of benefits，and thus shouldnt be delayed.dit could make the us dependent on foreign oil.61why did will sessoms support drilling off virginias coast?ait could create thousands of jobs.bit could help recover the economy.cit met the spirit of american people.dit partly helped the tourism industry.62what do we know about the accident?athe explosion in the gulf of mexico killed 11 workers.bthe leaked crude oil may affect the coasts of 3 states.cthe investigation into the accident has been completed.dofficials who support drilling off virginias coast are not in favor of the investigation.63what is the main idea of the report?aofficials reconsider support for drilling after the gulf oil accident.bit is dangerous to drill oil off the coasts.cpeople should learn from oil accidents to reduce damage to our environment.dinvestigations should be carried out immediately after oil accidents.c(2010绵阳市第三次诊断)everyone has good days and bad days.sometimes，you feel as if youre on top of the world.but occasionally you feel horrible，and you lose things and you cannot focus on your schoolwork.for more than 20 years，scientists have suggested that high selfesteem (自尊) is the key to success.now，new research shows that focusing just on building selfesteem may not be helpful.in some cases，having high selfesteem can bring bad results if it makes you less likeable or more upset when you fail at something.“forget about selfesteem，” says jennifer crocker，a psychologist (心理学家) at the university of michigan，us，“its not the important thing.”feeling goodcrockers advice may sound a bit strange because it is good to feel good about yourself.studies show that people with high selfesteem are less likely to be depressed，anxious，shy，or lonely than those with low selfesteem.but，after reviewing about 18,000 studies on selfesteem，roy baumeister，a psychologist at florida state university，has found that building up your selfesteem will not necessarily make you a better person.he believes that violent and wicked (邪恶的) people often have the highest selfesteem of all.he also said：“theres no evidence that kids with high selfesteem do better in school.”problemsall types of people have problems.people with high selfesteem can have big egos (自我) that can make them less likeable to their peers (同龄人)，said kathleen vohs，a psychology professor at columbia university.people with high selfesteem tend to think more of themselves，vohs says.people with low selfesteem are more likely to rely on their friends when they need help.what to doresearchers say it is best to listen to and support other people.find positive ways to contribute to society.if you fail at something try to learn from the experience.“the best therapy (药方) is to recognize your faults，” vohs says.“its ok to say，im not so good at that，and then move on.”64it is concluded in the research that high selfesteem_.ais not important at allbhas taken on a different meaningcmay not be the key to successddoes not help you do better at school65according to the research，people with high selfesteem_.ahave better relationship with people of their own agebare more likely to become violent and wickedctend to be proud and do not care much about othersdoften feel depressed and cant focus on their work66the advice in the last paragraph is mainly for people_.awith high selfesteem bwith low selfesteemcwho are still at school dwho are good at everythingd(2010江苏高考模拟三)the wellknown rushmore national monument in the united
