He asked each worker to make a small sign (标签) that said “My name is ________” and write their own name on the sign. Then, they put the sign on the plant they chose and took it back to their desk.

One day I took a taxi and we set off for the airport. The driver was driving on his driveway when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver stopped his car, and missed that car by just inches! The driver of that car pointed at us with his finger and started shouting at us! But my taxi driver just smiled at him. So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This man almost broke your car!” My taxi driver taught me what I now call “The Law of the Rubbish Truck”. He explained that many people are like rubbish trucks. They run around full of rubbish. As their rubbish piles up, they need a place to put it down. So they may get angry, upset, or even shout at you. Just smile, wish them well, and move on. Don’t take their rubbish and throw it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets. Successful people do not let rubbish trucks take over their day. Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets (遗憾), so love the people who treat you right and give your wishes to the ones who don’t. Life is 10% what you make it and 90% how you take it! 31. What happened when the taxi driver was driving on his driveway? A. His taxi hit a rubbish truck. B. His taxi hit a black car. C. A black car nearly hit the taxi. D. A black car nearly hit a rubbish truck. 32. How did the taxi driver deal with the other driver? A He smiled at him. B. He pointed at him. C. He shouted at him. D. He looked at him. 33. In this passage, “the Rubbish Truck” refers to ______. A. the writer B. the black car C the driver of the taxi D. the driver of the black car 34. According to the passage, which of the following can be considered as rubbish? A. Someone’s good wishes. B. Someone’s anger. C. Someone’s dirty car. D. Someone’s regrets 35. We can learn from the passage that ______. A. we should try to make 100% of our life B. no successful people drive rubbish trucks C. life is very short, so we should get up early D. we should love or give wishes to people around 根据短文内容，从五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并把字母填在表格下面的横线上。 Your school days should be some of the best and happiest days of your life. How can you gain (获取) the most from them, and ensure you do not waste this wonderful opportunity to learn? Be positive (积极的) about school. Don’t say things are difficult or boring. ___36___ Join in lots of activities. Be quick to put your hand up. Go round the school with a big smile. School is not a holiday camp. If you are not working, you are not learning. Teachers cannot make everything enjoyable. ___37___ Everyone fails some tests, loses some matches and has bad days. Friends are not always perfect, and they sometimes say and do unpleasant things. Talk about problems. Sometimes they are only the result of misunderstanding. Don’t be too embarrassed to ask someone for help. ___38___ Your abilities are limited (有限的). Plan your time. Don’t waste time lying in bed on Saturday mornings. Go and play a sport, learn the piano, work on a project, read a book, practice English, or help someone with problems. ___39___ Set goals. If your last grade was a D,work for a C. ___40___ Think of small goals. “I will speak in class four times this week” or “I will finish my project on Wednesday”.

Of course, the answer is “No” here in China. In America there is a school ____41____ something new. At a high school in Florida, students will be able to choose their own classes. We all know that some students are ____42____ at some subjects than others. Some students plan to go on to college ____43____ others will not. At this school students are able to find subjects they are ____44____ in, and possibly even find the field (领域) they would like ____45____ into after school. They are allowed to choose a subject ____46____ biology math, a foreign language, or study skills like computer or car repair. Some people think this is a good idea, because it helps students ____47____ about what they want to do in the future, and the school helps to give them the knowledge and skills needed to get there. They say that giving the students the chance to choose ____48____ own classes makes high school more interesting. Others disagree. They think that fourteen-year-old teenagers are too young to know ____49____ they will do in the future. What do you think? Would you like to be able to choose your own classes? Many ____50____ changes have been made in education, but seeing the differences in each student is also important. Ⅵ. 任务型阅读 What inspires (激励) you to work hard? Having your own goals is important. Good sleep also helps. But as it turns out, having a plant on your desk can improve your work as well. Mike Robinson, an engineer from Canada, owns his own small company. (A) One day, his wife advised him to choose some plants and put them on his workers’ desks. Robinson doubted the idea at first. What good would plants do? He thought (B) they might even be distracting (让人分心的). But he decided to try out the idea. First, Robinson bought 20 plants for his workers. He asked each worker to make a small sign (标签) that said “My name is ________” and write their own name on the sign. Then, they put the sign on the plant they chose and took it back to their desk. To his surprise, Robinson found that his workers were working much harder and getting along much better than before. It could be because his workers formed “friendships” with their plants. They would take good care of them, and in turn, take more care with their work. Plants can help to create a relaxed atmosphere (氛围) as well. What about you? Does your classroom have any plants? If not, you might want to ask your teacher about this. (C) You and your classmates could take turns taking care of some plants in your classroom. It could be a nice way to make your classroom more lively and get to know your classmates even better. 51. 把文中(A)处画线句子翻译成汉语。 ____________________________________ 52. 把文中(C)处画线句子翻译成汉语。 ____________________________________ 53. 写出(B)处画线单词指代的内容。 ____________________________________ 54. 写出文中提到的能激发工作热情的两件事。 ____________________________________ 55. 简要概括本文大意。 ____________________________________ Ⅶ. 阅读短文内容, 回答下列问题 Should kids get paid reward (报酬) for doing housework?
