I believe it is a normal thought in todays society to just let life happen to us. I also believe that we sometimes destroy（毁灭） our well-planned thoughts about success because its easier to just continue as usual rather than try with the possible failure in mind.Most people never get moving because they dont know what they want. Without a certain result already set in your mind, its really difficult to get going, and even if you do, your attention may soon disappear and you give up before long.Why not consider whats really important in your life? Write down what excites you, what would truly make you happy and what problems you have. At the end of the week, take a careful look at the notes youve taken .Youll soon begin to see a clearer picture of what direction you should be going towards.Knowledge is useless without action. You read many books but your life will stay the same if you dont use the knowledge. Knowledge is fantastic but it will not change your life until it is used. I love to read personal development material to keep a positive attitude(积极的态度) towards my life , but I also realize that if I dont set goals to achieve, then I will always be a talk the talk person who is great at giving advice but useless at realizing it .If you have no plans of practicing what you say, then it may be best to keep your mouth closed.Do you want to know who you are? Dont ask, Act! Action will explain you. Whatever excuses we have for not living up to our talent, the fact is that time will always move forward. Be whatever you want to be and whatever you can be. Always remember the only limits(限制）we have are the ones we create for ourselves. Life is not what we think. It is what we experience when we behave according to the thoughts we have.（1）What will happen if you have the possible failure in your mind? A .

In the 200 years since her death, Austen has been getting more and more popular all over the world.And yet Austens works are so English that its rather strange she should be so popular all over the world. Her novels are so of their time that its strange that shes still enjoyed in this very different age. Her most famous works including Pride and Prejudice, the one which she is most known for are about the world of the English gentry(贵族阶层)in the late 18th century.Most of her works is about young women of that time. Women of the gentry could not work so their chances of happiness or even basic living depended upon finding a husband. This is a very serious subject matter, of course, but the joy of Austens stories is her ability to make wonderful, but also touching, comedy out of something so serious.Take Pride and Prejudice as an example. Elizabeth Bennet is one of six daughters in a family that struggles with money problems. Her mother wants to marry off as many of them as possible. Mrs Bennet is one of the great comic characters of English literature.The novel is developed by the love-hate relationship between Elizabeth and Mr Darcy. The pleasure of the novel is reading how these obstacles(障碍) are overcome and how the comical and unexpected ending is achieved.If we think about this story, its clear why Jane Austen is still popular 200 years after her death, and why readers can still identify with characters from the long dead world of the 18th century English gentry. Although there have been many changes since that time, its still the greatest challenge in life for men and women to find the partner of their dreams.（1）From Paragraph 2 we can know that the writer _. A . believes Jane Austens works were ahead of their timeB . thinks that everyone should read Jane Austens booksC . is surprised that Jane Austens books are still so famousD . doubts if Jane Austen is still popular all over the world（2）According to the passage, Pride and Prejudice _. A . has a sad and unexpected endingB . deals with a serious social problem in a lighthearted wayC . is mainly about poor peoples struggles in the 18th centuryD . tells readers that everyone can succeed through hard work（3）According to the passage, Jane Austen remains popular today because_. A . readers enjoy reading love stories about wealthy peopleB . her works are developed by the love-hate relationshipC . readers can always find something new from her novelsD . her works deal with problems many of todays readers still face（4）The passage is mainly written to _. A . explain why Jane Austen is still popular todayB . introduce the story of Pride and PrejudiceC . introduce Jane Austens creative writing styleD . explain why Jane Austen was chosen to be on the new 10 note四、 单词拼写：根据下列句子及所给汉语注释或通过上下文，在答题纸上 (共10题；共29分)20. （5分）单词拼写(根据中文提示拼写单词)。（1）The ninth month of the year is _(九月).（2）Tomorrow is Jacks _(十二) birthday.
