Its always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you make yourself stronger? The simple answer is “You cant.” Look around you. With very few exceptions(例外), either everything you see in your world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something newAnother good thing about mistakes is this: When you are making mistakes, you are learningConsider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadnt failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didnt workFinally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success. Why? Because when all is said and done, you will have tried some numbers of things before you succeedEvery time you make a mistake, you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer. But this all doesnt mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences(后果) of a mistake. However, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits（限度） so that in the event that it doesnt work out the way you want it to, you will be in a normal place to try againWe all have limited time and money so dont blow them all on one problem. Realize that it probably wont be perfect the first time and deal with these resources(资源) properly so you can learn, make corrections, and try it againIf you accept and use your mistakes in this way ,you can make great progress in your business and your careerThere is an old saying that goes, “If youre not making mistakes, youre not trying hard enough.”So go ahead and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And succeed（1）From the second paragraph, we can know that _A . mistakes are unnecessary for developmentB . we are afraid of trying new thingC . its common for people to make mistakesD . mistakes are better than not trying（2）The underlined word “eliminate” means _A . studyB . removeC . acceptD . solve（3）According to the article, one thing you should pay attention to about making mistakes is_A . not making the same mistakesB . accepting the punishment willinglyC . taking consequences into considerationD . trying things out one by one（4）What would the writer probably suggest we say to ourselves when we make a mistake?A . Never mind, I can always try againB . Id better stay out of troubleC . Ok! Now I can learn somethingD . Look at this mess. Anyone would be sad13. （10分）根据短文内容的理解，选择正确答案。Zhang Lili, a Chinese language teacher at No.19 Middle School of Jiamusi in Heilongjiang Province, has recently been considered to be the Most Beautiful Teacher in China.At 8: 38 pm on Tuesday, May 8th, 2012, Zhang Lili and her several students were waiting for a bus at the school gate when suddenly a school bus lost control and rushed towards them.

The visitors might think that the Indian doesnt like what they say. But in fact, they would be completely wrong. Indians always shake their heads when they talk to others. It doesnt mean No. If someone wants to visit India, he should know this, or he will be in trouble.One day, a foreign officer went to India on business. He hired a car and asked an Indian to drive him. When he told his driver to take him to his office, the Indian shook his head at once. The officer said again and the driver shook his head again. At last the officer, of course, got angry.How dare you refuse my order? he shouted. Drive me to my office at once!The driver answered in quite a loud voice too, Yes, sir! But to the officers surprise, the driver shook his head at the same time.The car started and the foreign officer was now too surprised to say a word. He thought about it for a while, and then he nodded with a smile, No means Yes here!（1）What does shaking ones head mean all over the world? A . It means Yes.B . It means No.C . It means Glad.D .

Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping. But none of them are worried about the road ahead.Well, all of this could be the future of driving. There are several companies, including Google, working on driverless cars. So far, no Google self-driven car has gotten a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them.These cars are now still in the testing stages. But, if the tests are successful, these electric self-driven cars could be put into use very soon.The cars already have many features（特点）allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they notice objects close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions.Scientists and engineers believe, with the help of wireless signals, cameras and GPS, we are now at a stage where creating a safe self-driven car might be possible.The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The self-driven car may be able to prevent these. However, some people do not like the idea. American lawyer Whit Drake, for example, doesnt believe these cars are safe. He thinks that technologies can also be mistakes.（1）The main purpose of the first paragraph is to _A . make readers wonder about self-driven cars.B . get readers to pay attention to road safety.C . tell readers to keep away from heavy traffic.D . tell readers what self-driven cars look like.（2）From the passage, we know that the testing self-driven cars can already _ A . avoid being hit by other vehicles on roads.B . control the speed in dangerous situations.C . turn around when getting near objects.D . pick up their owners.（3）What might make the self-driven cars run safely according to the passage?a. e-reading b. wireless signals c. cameras d. GPSA . a, b, cB . a, b, dC . b, c, dD . a, c, d（4）What is Whit Drakes attitude toward the safety of the self-driven cars? A . He has doubt about it.B . He believes it completely.C . He doesnt care about it.D . He thinks its technologies are convincing（使人信服的）.四、 词汇运用。 (共2题；共20分)16. （10分）阅读短文，从方框中选择适当的词并用其正确形式填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词，每词限用一次。方框中有两个词是多余的。buy little easily cut plant other that realize nature take disagree walkIts necessary for parents to teach kids how to cook from an early age.
