Rather, we should keep trying with enthusiasm. Success consists in the ability to continue efforts through failures. At the age of twelve, I got a nice bike as a birthday gift. So excited was I that I couldnt wait to try my hand at riding it. However, it was harder than expected. The bike seemed too heavy and difficult to control. Worse still, I took many falls off the bike. I was about to give up when my father came and encouraged me to keep going. With more practice, I did better and better. Looking back, I feel I wouldnt be able to ride a bike had I lost heart. Actually, we cant succeed in everything we try. Whats important is that we should stick at it.书面表达（共25分）某中学生英语报社正开展一场题为“Is Failure a Bad Thing?”的讨论。 请你依据下面表格所提供的要点写一篇短文，向该报社投稿。不同的人对待失败的不同态度不在乎结果自责、自卑从中吸取教训你对失败的观点注意：1. 词数100左右，开头语已为你写好，不计入总词数； 2. 短文必须包含表格的全部内容。要求观点明确，结构合理，节奏连贯。 Is Failure a Bad Thing?Although failure happens to everyone, attitudes towards failure are various. Some people 【参考范文】Is Failure a Bad Thing?Although failure happens to everyone, attitudes towards failure are various. Some people dont think their failure is so important. So they pay no attention to it. As a result, they will have the same failure some time later. Some people think they are fools and lose their hearts in everything after they get a failure. Consequently, they would feel disappointed and they may really be fools as they have thought.Other people, instead of being sad and lost, draw a lesson from every failure and become more experienced. It is said that failure is the mother of success. So long as we are good at drawing lessons from our failures, success isnt a dream any more.In my opinion, failure is not a bad thing, but the really bad thing is taking a failure as failure or even losing heart after failure.（A）（20分钟）90后出生的学生，思想特殊、行为方式和价值观令人担忧。假如你是一名90后出生的学生，请根据下表中所提供信息以“Do trust usa generation born in the 90s”为题写一篇英语演讲稿，以消除人们的忧虑。90后的境遇面临更多的升学和就业烦恼，所处环境竞争更加激烈。人们的忧虑1.注重自我，轻视合作；2.缺乏毅力，容易气馁；3.盲目追求，渴望成名。我们的长处敢于挑战。（请考生联系自己拟定内容，再列举两至三点。）注意：1.对所给要点，逐一陈述，适当发挥，不要简单翻译。2.词数150左右。开头和结尾已经写好，不计入总词数。Good afternoon, everyone!The topic of my speech today is “Do trust usa generation born in the 90s”.Living in an environment full of fiercer competition, we, a generation born in the 90s, are faced with more problems in entering higher schools and getting employed. _Thank you for your listening!【参考范文】One possible version:Good afternoon, everyone!The topic of my speech today is “Do trust usa generation born in the 90s”.Living in an environment full of fiercer competition, we, a generation born in the 90s, are faced with more problems in entering higher schools and getting employed. Under these circumstances, we are developing our special manners and values, which has raised peoples concern.They worry we care too much about ourselves and are unwilling to cooperate with others, which makes it hard for us to achieve success in whatever we do. Besides, they consider us as lacking in determination, and this is what it takes to do any job well. Without it, we may easily give up in time of difficulty. They are also concerned that we are so eager to win instant fame that we follow fashion blindly, which will in turn ruin our values and future.However, we, a generation born in the 90s, have our own advantages despite some weaknesses. Firstly, we have the courage to meet challenges and take risks, which helps realize our dreams. In addition, we are quick-minded and creative. We can do our work more efficiently. Yet, we still need to learn more from those experienced. Please do trust us!Thank you for your listening!【2016模拟题】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。Anyone who is afraid of failure and afraid to face challenges will never taste success, so said our professor in marketing. I laughed it off at that time, but got frightened when it actually happened in my life.I landed in a small city in the Middle East to set up a firm, a world-class car rental firm. Having decided on the project, I earnestly settled in preparation. With a positive mind, I told myself nothing should stop me now, and was more than keen to make it a success.However, the least expected thing happened. Iraq invaded Kuwait. Tension ran high in the region. Eventually the war broke out, and many people fled the country, leaving my firm in deep trouble.As usual, “things become difficult, and every effort seems to bring disappointment, it can be tempting to lower your expectations or even water down your goals and ambitions.”I was no exception. I thought of running away. I remembered the words of Thomas Edison, “Many of lifes failures are people who did not realize how close they were to succeed when they gave up.”I decided to hang on, telling myself, “I am not afraid of challenges and obstacles.” I stayed on through months of uncertainty and insecurity. Finances ran low, and banks could not wait to get their dues. To add to all this, the banks even threatened to take all my vehicles. I felt I made a wrong decision to move there. I was now ready to face failure.I was living against all hopes, believing that something good would happen. After 2 months the war ended. My persistence paid off: people started flooding back and the car bookings picked up, five times over.Success comes to the one who dares, even after failure, to think positively and look forward confidently. After all, it is only the experience that makes a man tough. Failure does not mean you will never make it. It means that it will take a little longer. It provides us with a learning experience.1. The main method the author uses to support his understanding of his professors viewpoint is _.A. offering analyses B. providing explanationsC. making comparisons D. giving examples2. How did the author feel when the war between Iraq and Kuwait broke out?A. Unconfident B. Indifferent C. Nervous D. Calm3. What does the underlined phrase “water down” in the 4th paragraph probably mean?A. get rid of B. smooth away C. make less forceful D. improve on4. The authors purpose of writing the passage is most likely to _.A. inform B. persuade C. describe D. entertain【参考答案】1. D. 推理判断题。本文一开始介绍了作者的教授提出的一个观点，但是当时作者不以为然，但是在今后自己的实际上生活中真正遇到了失败或挑战时，自己才认识到了教授的观点。下文主要通过自己的亲身经历阐述了自己的观点，即通过举例来说明。故正确答案为D想。2. A. 推理判断题。根据第四段中提到的“I was no exception. I thought of running away.”以及第五段中提到的“I felt I made a wrong decision to move there.”可知，在伊拉克和科威特发生战争期间，因为作者的生意遭到重创，所以他曾一度很是没有了自信。所以该题答案应为A项。3. C. 词义猜测题。该下划线短语所在的句子含义是：当事情变得困难，所付出的努力带来的是失望时，那么降低自己的期望值或者削弱自己当初的目标或抱负变成诱人的做法。所以，该下划线短语的意思是“削弱”，与C项含义接近。4. B. 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是文章最后一段可知，作者写这篇文章的意图是在劝说人们面对挑战或失败时要大胆去应对，要有积极的心态。所以答案应为B项。第二节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。October 21 was a very dark day in Texas.Not only did Hurricane Hanna destroy homes, but also it caused the largest business damage in Texass history.The worst thing is that Hannas destructive force nearly wiped out most power poles and power lines.According to Center Point Energy, Hurricane Hanna affected 2.15 million customers.Currently, more than 4,000 of them are still in the dark.Crews have worked 16hour shifts to restore power to residents.Most of Houston seems to be returning to normal.Schools, restaurants, retail stores and gas stations are open.Smiles are back.But harderhit places, including Galveston, will take much longer to recover.Hundreds of people are still missing, and coastal towns are a mess.Some ruins from storm have drifted south to other beaches in Texas.Several public schools in Galveston are closed due to water damage.Parents are registering kids in other area schools which are scheduled to begin class on November 13.Many school supplies were destroyed.Clara Barton Village is an emergency shelter located at Alamo Elementary School in Galveston, Texas.This is where Paula Reed and her family are staying.Believe it or not, Paula Reed and her family consider this hurricane a blessing.When Paula was a girl, she was an orphan, but was taken in by her stepmother, Antonia Flores.Reed lost contact with Flores and had been trying desperately to locate her for the past few years.Before the hurricane, Reed and her family moved away from Galveston to a San Antonio shelter.There, she reunited with Flores after 30 long years！The moment they saw each other, their lives were changed.1.Whats the most serious damage caused by Hurricane Hanna?A.Hundreds of people are still missing.B.A large number of people are homeless.C.Power facilities are severely destroyed.D.Factories are closed and many people jobless.2.
