David was full of stories and jokes. He and Jean had a common interest in rock music and modern dance. So it always took them hours to talk happily on QQ and sometimes they even forgot their time. Of course, they wanted to know more about each other. David sent a picture of himself: He was a tall, good looking young man with big , happy smile. As time went by, they became good friends and often sent cards and small things to each other. When Jeans father told her that he was going on a business trip to San Francisco, she asked him to let her go with him so that she could give David a surprise for his birthday.

I knew my promise would quickly disappear. Because if Benton had things his way, Id always be eating a piece of candy from the bottomless bag he often shared with me.Benton was an eight-year-old boy who was blind because of a kind of cancer, which caused him to live in the darkness, when he was fifteen months old. For the next twenty-six months, he was in and out of our hospital. For nearly four years, it seemed as though Benton could beat the disease, until one Friday afternoon in April 2011, when he developed a headache and lost movement on his right side. His mom rushed him to the hospital. Over the next several months, Benton came to our hospital many more times. Each time he came, we would say hello, while Benton answered the greeting by holding out a candy from his bag. So, on that first day of my diet, I went to his room and found Benton lying in his bed, his eyes opened but not looking into this world. “We brought his candy bag with us. Would you like to have some?” his mother asked. Without thinking of my diet, I reached into the bag and pulled out the first piece my fingers touched. It was my favorite as if Benton had saved one last piece for me. At home that evening, I answered a phone about Bentons death. As I hung it up, I opened the candy and ate it.31.

Success belongs to those who are willing to look fear in the face, eyeball to eyeball, and then do what they have to do. Success belongs to those who realize that there is something more important than their fear.“Desire is the key to motivation.” Desire is the longing to achieve a vision; without desire you have nothing. If youve lost your vision, or if your desire is not strong, work to clarify your vision, use pictures, write the vision down. Habakkuk said, “Write the vision, and make it plain, ” Before you can run with desire, your vision must be plain, it must be clear, it must be exciting.“Seventy percent of success in life is showing up.” You cant get your dream job, if youre scared to turn in an application. You wont get the sale, if you dont try. Showing up doesnt guarantee success, but rest assured if you dont show up, you wont succeed. When it comes to your dreams, and the things you desire to achieve in this life, you have to show up.Thomas J. Watson said, “Would you like me to give you a formula（公式）for success? Its quite simple, really. Double your rate of failure. You are thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isnt at all. You can be discouraged by failure or you can learn from it, so go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because remember thats where you will find success.” Never fear failure, it is failure that will bring you success. Embrace failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed.Success is not about doing what the average person cant do, its about doing what the average person is unwilling to do. And on a deeper level, its about creating habits that the average person is unwilling to create. Its the habit of doing things with excellence that cause success. Success is the enjoyment of the journey. You have to enjoy the journey!Someone once said, “Unless you change how you are, you will always have what youve got.” You have to changeyou will change, you will succeed.36. If you want to succeed, you should _.A. make efforts to achieve itB. be a special personC. face it with fearD. do everything important37. Whats Habakkuks opinion?A. We should make our aims common.B.

Watson encourages us to _.A. retire from failure B. escape from failureC. make double mistakesD. grow from failure40. Which is the best title of the passage? _.A. Success and Failure B. Keys to SuccessC. Several Critical Steps to Success D. Importance of SuccessD The Tibetan Plateau(青藏高原) is the worlds highest place. Its four times the size of France and home to most of the worlds highest mountains.As you might expect, its cold there. And it may be that the deep chill of the Tibetan Plateau played a role in the evolution of some of the worlds most charismatic(魅力十足的) animals.Thats the belief of a scientist who discovered the skull of a woolly rhino(长毛犀) on the Tibetan Plateau.The woolly rhino two tons, two tusks, lots of hair and lots of attitude was an Ice Age giant. It lived with other Ice Age beasts in Europe and Asia, starting about 2.5 million years ago.But Xiaoming Wang, from the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, was shocked when he found a 3.5-million-year-old rhino skull(头骨化石) on the Tibetan Plateau. It caught us by complete surprise that they are actually up in the high plateau well before the Ice Age has started, Wang says.Thats about a million years before the Ice Age started, in fact. Wang thinks his discovery shows that at least some animals were prepared for the Ice Age. At least in the case of the woolly rhino, it actually adapted itself in the cold environment in the Tibetan Plateau before the Ice Age has even started, Wang says. The animal actually used its head to sweep snow, Wang explains, so they can get at the vegetation below the snow cover. So Wang thinks the Plateau was a sort of evolutionary cradle(摇篮) for cold-weather animals. When the rest of the world eventually iced up, they moved out of Tibet and took over.Anthony Barnosky, a paleontologist at the University of California, Berkeley, says even now, these isolated cradles are important for evolution(进化).The interesting thing, Barnosky says, is on Earth today we have biodiversity(生物多样性) isolated in certain spots, and we just never know which of those isolated places will be the cradle of evolution for the next big environmental change coming down the pike(出现).The only problem is that to be ready, you have to know what the next environment will be like. Or just be very lucky.41. The underlined word chill in Para.2 could be replaced as _.A. hole B. coldC. shape D. lake42. Which is NOTtrue about the woolly rhinos(长毛犀) on the Tibetan Plateau?A. They were Ice Age giants with two tusks, lots of hair and lots of attitude. B. They had lived on the Tibetan Plateau before the Ice Age has started.C. They were able to sweep snow with their heads.D. They hardly adapted themselves in the cold environment.43. What did Anthony Barnosky think of the isolated cradles ?A. They adapted the cold weather.B. They played an important role in evolution.C. It was hard to know whether they would change.D. It was luck to change the next big environmental.44. The research might appear in the .A. journal science B. newspaper C. English textbook D. blog45. From the passage, we can infer that _.A. Facing the cold, the animals continuously evolvedB. Xiaoming Wang works in the USAC. Both Wang and Barnosky are paleontologistsD.
