He had little school education. In spite of this, he became the most famous writer of his time. He made millions of dollars by writing. His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but he is better known all over the world as Mark Twain, his penname.Mark Twain was born in 1835 and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. But with his mothers care, he managed to survive. As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all his friends and neighbors. He didnt like to go to school, and he often ran away from home. He always went in the direction of the nearby Mississippi(密西西比河). He was nearly drowned nine times.After his fathers death, Mark Twain began to work for a printer, who only provided him with food and clothing. Then, he worked as a printer, a river-boat pilot(领航员) and later joined the army. But shortly after that he became a miner. During this period, he started to write short stories. Afterwards he became a full time writer.In 1870, Mark Twain got married. In the years that followed he wrote many books including Tom Sawyer in 1876, and Huckleberry Finn in 1884, which made him famous, and brought him great fortune.Unfortunately, Mark Twain got into debts in bad investments(投资) and he had to write large numbers of stories to pay these debts. In 1904, his wife died, and then three of his children passed away.At the age of 70, his hair was completely white. He bought many white suits and neckties(领带). He wore nothing but white from head to foot until his death on April 21, 1910.56.

Once I came out of the kitchen, complaining, Mom, I cant peel potatoes. I have only one hand. Mom never looked up from sewing. You get yourself into that kitchen and peel those potatoes, she told me, And dont ever use that as an excuse for anything again! In the second grade, our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race across the monkey bars, swinging from one high steel rod (杆) to the next. When it was my turn, I shook my head. Some kids behind me laughed, and I went home crying. That night I told Mom about it. She hugged me, and I saw her well see about that look. The next afternoon, she took me back to school. At the deserted playground, Mom looked carefully at the bars. Now, pull up with your right arm, she advised. She stood by as I struggled to lift myself with my right hand until I could hook the bar with my other elbow. Day after day we practiced, and she praised me for every rung（梯级） I reached. Ill never forget the next time, crossing the rungs when I looked down at the kids who were standing with their mouths open. One night, after a dance at my new junior high, I lay in bed sobbing. I could hear Mom come into my room. Mom, I said, weeping, None of the boys would dance with me. For a long time, I didnt hear anything. Then she said, Oh, honey, someday youll be beating those boys off with a bat. Her voice was faint（微弱的） and cracking. I peeked (偷看)out from my covers to see tears running down her cheeks. Then I knew how much she suffered on my behalf. She had never let me see her tears.60. Which of the following expressions can be used most suitably to describe Moms attitude when she made the child to peel potatoes? A. Cruel. B. Sensitive. C. Strict. D. Cold.61. What does the sentence I saw her well see about that look imply? A. Mom believed every aim could be achieved if you stuck to it. B. The race across monkey bars was not difficult enough for a child to give up. C. Mom was determined to prove she herself was better than the teacher. D. What the child had said brought Mom great attraction and curiosity.62. When the child looked down at the kids, they were standing with their mouths open because . A. they felt sorry for what they had done before B. they were afraid the author might fall off and get hurt C. they wanted to see what the author would do on the bars D. they were astonished to find the authors progress63. The most probable conclusion we can draw after reading the passage is . A. the last incident was sad enough to make Mom weep B. the childs experience reminded Mom of that of her own C. Mom could solve any problem except the one in the last paragraphD. in fact Mom suffered more in the process of the childs growth CAre you the type of person who always says yes? Ive come to learn that it is very important to learn to say no! Its okay. People are still going to like you. They may even respect you more because they know you are honest.I dont mean saying no to someone who really needs your help. Im talking about turning down that meeting that you really do not want to attend or that birthday party that you dont want to be a guest at.Think for a moment how you feel when you say yes to something that you really dont want to do. If youre like I once was, you cant sleep at night and you think about it too much. It weighs on your mind. You try to find ways out. You start thinking, “Oh its not so bad and it will make him/her happy” or “Maybe I wont be bored.” Whatever youre saying to yourself, if you really wanted to go, you wouldnt have all of these thoughts.So, why not just say no from the beginning? Maybe you feel if you dont show up at the meeting, your boss isnt going to like you or your co-workers wont respect you. Maybe you feel your parents or sisters wont love you as much if you dont do everything for them that they ask.If these people are your true friends, family members, or a good boss, they will like or love you the same no matter what. People treat you the way you teach them to, and if youre someone who always says yes then thats what theyre expecting.You need to do what is right for you. Of course we do have real obligations (责任）in life to meet, but we do not have to do everything others want us to do.64. Which of the following statements would the author agree with? A. Always saying “yes” means you are kind. B. Always saying “no” means you are brave. C. We should always try to help others in need. D. We should try to do what our friends ask us to do.65. What does the underlined word “It” refer to_? A. Saying “yes”. B. A friends birthday party. C. Something youre unwilling to do. D. Something you think difficult to do.66. Generally speaking, we agree to do what we hate to do because we_. A. have concerns B. have obligations C. are forgetfulD. have a kind heart67. What would be the best title for the text? A. To Be Yourself B. Learn to Say No C. Learn to Make a Right Choice D. Do What You Want to Do DEveryone has good days and bad days.Sometimes, you feel as if you re on top of the world. But occasionally you feel horrible, and you lose things and you cannot focus on your school work.For more than 20 years, scientists have suggested that high self-esteem (自尊）is the key to success. Now, new research shows that focusing just on building self-esteem may not be helpful. In some cases, having high self-esteem can bring bad results if it makes you less likeable or more upset when you fail at something.“Forget about self-esteem，” says Jennifer Crocker, a psychologist (心理学家）at the University of Michigan, US, “Its not the important thing.”Feeling goodCrocker s advice may sound a bit strange because it is good to feel good about yourself.Studies show that people with high self-esteem are less likely to be depressed，anxious，shy，or lonely than those with low self-esteem.But, after reviewing about 18，000 studies on self-esteem，Roy Baumeister, a psychologist at Florida State University, has found that building up your self-esteem will not necessarily make you a better person.He believes that violent and wicked (邪恶的)people often have the highest self-esteem of all. He also said ： “Theres no evidence that kids with high self-esteem do better in school.”ProblemsAll types of people have problems. People with high self-esteem can have big egos (自我）that can make them less likeable to their peers , said Kathleen Vohs, a psychology professor at Columbia University.People with high self-esteem tend to think more of themselves, Vohs says. People with low self-esteem 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, I m not so good at that, and then move on.”68. It is concluded in the research that high self-esteem_.A. is not important at all B. has taken on a differe
