I think we should study ants.Ants have an amazing four-part philosophy, and here is the first part：they never give up. Thats a good philosophy. If theyre headed somewhere and you try to stop them, theyll look for another way. Theyll climb over, and theyll climb around. They keep looking for another way. What a neat philosophy to never quit looking for a way to get where theyd like to go.Second, ants think winter all summer. Thats an important view. You cant be so naive (无知的) as to think summer will last forever. So ants are gathering their winter food in summer. An ancient story says, “Dont build your house on the sand in summer.” There is some reason in what it says. It is important to think ahead. In summer, youve to think about the storm. Youve got to think about rocks when you enjoy the sand and sun.The third part of the ant philosophy is that ants think summer all winter. That is so important. During the winter, ants remind themselves, “This wont last long；well soon be out of here.” And on the first warm day, the ants are out. If it turns cold again, theyll go back, but then they come out again if it is warm. They cant wait to get out.And here is the last part of the ant philosophy. How much will an ant gather during the summer to prepare for the winter? All that he possibly can. What an incredible (难以置信的) philosophy, the “all-that-you-possibly-can” philosophy.What a great philosophy to have the ant philosophy! Never give up, look ahead, stay active and do all you can.（1）If ants have trouble reaching somewhere, they will_. A . give up their effort at lastB . look for others helpC . wait for a chance to comeD . get there in another way（2）Which of the following phrases in the passage has the closest meaning to the underlined word “quit” in Paragraph 2? A . go onB . get outC . give upD . think about（3）In Paragraph 3, people are advised（建议） _. A . to build their houses in winterB . to gather some food in winterC . to build the house on the sand in summerD . to think about the danger while in safety（4）The third part of the ant philosophy is _. A . more important than the other threeB . to believe in yourself and think about no difficultyC . to be active and full of hope for futureD . that we should know winter is longer than summer（5）Which of the following shows the “all-that-you-possibly can” philosophy? A . We should try our best to do what we can.B . One should think of what will happen in the future.C . One should get more pay for what he has done.D . We should spend more time doing our work.20. （10分） The sun is a huge, hot and bright star. It is important because without it there would be no life on the earth.
