Besides the earth, the “red planet” is seen, as the one place in our solar system most likely to have life. Early last month, the first American robot, Spirit, landed on Mars without any problem. Opportunity, the second robot, landed on the planet more than a week ago. Scientists are very excited about these machines safe landing on Mars. It means that now we have an excellent chance to look for water and other signs of life. So far, the robots have found some stones that could show Mars was once a wet and warm planet. But the trips made by Spirit and Opportunity were dangerous. Mars is often called the “death planet”, because in the past its environment has been unfriendly to the robot explorers. Before Spirit and Opportunity, nearly forty spaceships had been sent to Mars since the 1960s. Two-thirds of them failed. The first spaceship, Korabl, sent in 1962 by Russia was among them. It broke apart (分裂) near the earth.28. For a long time humans think _. A. they can surely find life on MarsB. there may be life on Mars C. its too late for them to explore Mars nowD.

Quite simply because no one tells us how to fail so that failure (失败) becomes an experience that means growth. We forget that failure is part of the human condition and that every person has the right to fail.Most parents work hard at preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards(标准). When a child finishes making a table, the mother describes it as “perfect” even though it doesnt stand still. Another way is to blame (责怪) others. If John fails in science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.Theres a problem with the two ways. It makes a child unprepared for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everything, no one can win all the time, and that its possible to enjoy a game even when you dont win. A child whos not invited to a birthday party, who doesnt make the honour list on the baseball team, feels terrible, of course. But parents should not offer a quick consolations (安慰), prize or say, “It doesnt matter.” Because it does. The young should be allowed to experience failure and be helped to come out of it.Failure never gives people pleasure. It hurts both grown-ups and children. But it can be really good to your life when you learn to use it. You must learn to ask “Why did I fail?” Dont blame anyone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong and how you can improve. If someone else can help, dont be shy about asking them.31:How do most parents prevent their children from failure?AThey give them some presents.BThey dont tell them that they have failed.CThey dont blame others.DThey help them to come out of failure.32:Which of the following can a person learn when he fails?AIts impossible to enjoy a game if he misses it.BHe is the worst of all.CIts natural not to win a game and no one can win all the time.DHis teammates are not good enough.33. Which would be the best title for the passage?ALearning from FailureBWays of Preventing FailureCReasons of FailureDGetting Pleasure from Failure参考答案31-33 BCA （来自2016中考模拟训练）阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。 If youre ever apart from your children, a new study says just talking on the phone will help just as much as a hug(拥抱)If youre a parent who spends long hours on the job, you probably feel sorry for spending so much time away from your kidsBut the results of a new study show that a mothers voice alone can be just as comforting to an anxious child as physical contactIn an experiment, researchers from the University of Wisconsin-Madison asked a group of girls between the age of 7 and 12 to solve math problems in front of judges a stressful(充满压力了)situation for anyoneBefore the girls were set to solve math problems, the researchers measured their levels of two hormones(荷尔蒙)：cortisol, which goes up during stressful periods, and oxytocin, the “love” hormoneAfter they were finished, some of the girls got to meet up with their mothers right awayThe mums came in and hugged the girlsAnother group of the girls didnt see their mothers, but received phone calls from them, in which their mothers told them how well theyd doneThe final group had no contact with their mothers, but watched an animal movie, March of the Penguins insteadFinally, the girls hormone levels were measured againalthough the movie was interesting, it did noting to ease(缓解)the childrens anxiety but, surprisingly, both the physical contact and phone calls from their mothers had the same effect on easing the girls stress levelsSo, no matter how old you are, if youre feeling stressed about something in your life, a phone call to Mom might be just the key to help you feel better34.The first two paragraphs suggest that _Aa mothers voice can comfort her anxious kidBthe results of the study cant be accepted by mothersCparents are too busy to talk with their kidsDmothers should spend enough time staying with their kids35.Which of the following is the right order in which the study was carried out?aThe girls levels of hormones were measured againbThe girls solved math problemscThe girls levels of hormones were measureddThe girls were divided into three groupsAb-c-d-a Bd-b-c-a Cc-b-d-a Dd-c-b-a36.According to the passage, we can infer that _Ait is easy for girls to solve math problemsBthe girls who had watched the movie remained anxiousCmothers should hug their kids as often as possibleDolder girls have higher cortisol than younger ones37.What is the authors attitude towards the study?ASupportive BDoubtful CUncertainDWorried参考答案34-37 ACBA（来自2016中考模拟训练）阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。These amazing animals prove that love lives on four legs.

As if the weight would just fall off, in response to the spoken words!Why do we not want to pay the price for anything? Gaining weight is not an overnight effect and it will NOT be reversed overnight. The price of losing weight is choosing a proper diet plan and exercise routine.(常规)And it takes willpower!
