We might find ourselves frustrated or angry with other people, or even find that we argue with them. The reality is that nobody is perfect and we need to realise that we should find ways to live happier and less stressful lives. Here are some tips on how to make relationships happier and healthier. 1 Respect other people and accept them This is the most important point. If we want to show someone we love them, we need to first respect who they are and show them we accept them for who they are. Everyone is unique with different experiences and lives. By always remembering this, we will be able to develop and maintain strong relationships. 2 Be interested in others’ interests We might have friends who are crazy about sports, while we prefer reading. Or perhaps a parent's hobby seems boring to us but it is something they love. If we want to keep our relationships strong and positive, we should at least take time to listen to them and talk about what matters to them. By doing this, we show them that we care about them and their interests. 3 Apologise when you make a mistake This is the hardest thing for most of us to do, yet a simple “I’m sorry” can undo a lot of tension. By being humble when you make a mistake, you can fix any problem you may have caused and also show that you are a mature person. So, try and follow the advice and you will find that you have happier and stronger relationships with your friends and loved ones. 33. According to the author, which of the following is correct? A. We need to realize that others are often wrong in our dealings with them. B. Our friends and loved ones can cause us stress by being wrong. C. Everyone can be right and wrong at times and we need to remember that. D. We need to find people with similar outlooks to our own in order to have a strong and happy relationship with them. 34. According to the author, which is the most challenging mindset for most people? A. Being mature and admitting our mistakes when we make them. B. Respecting the fact that others may not appreciate our hobbies and interests. C Showing our love for others when they hurt us or disrespect us. D. Accepting that our friends will eventually grow apart from us. 35. When we apologize for our mistakes, what qualities do we show? A. Confidence and courage. B. Kindness and generosity. C. Humility and maturity. D. Honesty and maturity. B Opportunity Calls At 16 years old, Sam had always been a relatively good student. He put in an effort to get good grades and keep his parents happy. Neither of his parents had had the opportunity to attend university and for them, Sam becoming a lawyer was their biggest ambition. He knew that achieving this goal would make them happy, but the truth was that he wasn't sure whether he would feel the same. Since he was only a child, Sam had been passionate about computer programming. He taught himself how to use a computer, and by the age of 12 he had known three different programming languages. He did all of this in his spare time. He was quite an introvert, so he preferred staying in with his computer, rather than going out socialising or playing sports. His parents were fine with this, as long as he continued to focus on his studies. One day, while reading an article online about a young technology billionaire called Thomas O' Connor, everything changed for Sam. In the article, the CEO said that his company was trying to create a new and improved way of paying for goods online but that they were having a problem with the security system. He said if they could overcome this, they could launch the biggest and best online payment system in the world. Sam realised he had an idea on how to solve this problem. Thinking that it wouldn't come to anything, he emailed the CEO, introducing himself and explaining his idea. He forgot all about it and got on with his life and studies but then a month later, the most amazing thing happened. He got a response directly from the CEO. He told him he loved his idea and would like him to fly to America to meet with him. He said he knew Sam still needed to finish school, but that when he had, he would be happy to offer Sam a job in the company. Sam was overjoyed, but soon began to worry. What about his parents' ambition for him? Should he tell them or turn down the offer? It was a difficult decision to make. 36. According to the story, which of the following is correct? A. Sam's parents were happy for him to become a computer programmer. B. Sam felt a responsibility to achieve what his parents expected of him. C. Sam's parents were happy to let him decide on what was best for his future. D. Sam realized that computer programming would not bring him the happiness he wanted. 37. Which of the following shows that Sam is a very talented and dedicated person? A. By a young age, he had become proficient in different programming languages. B. He chose to follow his parents dream instead of his own. C. He was as good at computer programming as he was at sports. D. Sam got good grades by giving, giving up his passion for computer programming. 38. What would Sam probably do next? A. Sam would keep the offer a secret and focus on becoming a lawyer. B. Sam would tell his parents and expect to get their support. C. Sam would discuss it with a teacher and then make a decision. D. Sam would write back to the CEO and turn down the offer. 39. What does the underlined part "Thinking that it wouldn't come to anything" in the last paragraph mean? A. Believing that it would lead to failure and embarrassment. B. Assuming that it would result in being ignored and forgotten. C. Expecting that it would cause trouble and criticism. D. Thinking that it would have no meaningful consequence. C When the world-famous author J. K. Rowling gave a speech at a Harvard University graduation ceremony, some may have been a little surprised by the topic she chose: “The Benefits of Failure”. Rowling’s first novel was rejected (拒绝) by 12 publishers before it was finally published, yet paradoxically, it was this experience that helped her to succeed: “Failure taught me things about myself that I could have learnt no other way. I discovered that I had a strong will, and more discipline than I had expected.” The late Apple CEO Steve jobs experienced failure early in his career, when he was fired from the company he had co-founded. He felt despair and rejection. However, it was, in his view, “the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods in my life.” Even Bill Gates has experienced failure. His first company was called Traf-0-Data, but unfortunately, its product didn’t work. It was a total disaster. But what Gates learnt from this experience helped lay the groundwork for the global success that is now Microsoft. He didn’t make the same mistake twice. Talented fashion designer Vera Wang has built a global fashion empire, yet life wasn’t always so straightforward. A dedicated ice skater as a young woman, Wang was bitterly disappointed when she did not make the 1968 US Olympic team. She gave up sport and joined Vogue as an assistant editor, but was crushed. After 15 years at the magazine, she was passed over for promotion to editor-in-chief. However, this setback prompted her to set up her own bridal fashion label. The rest is history. All these individuals share something in common: At tough moments in their lives, they showed grit. But what is “grit” exactly? Put simply, it’s a passion for something and the determination to work hard and to stick to it. It’s very easy to give up when we hit setbacks, but people who have grit keep going. So, how can we become “gritter”? This is where the importance of failure comes in: If we can learn how to manage failure, we’ll learn how to succeed. By working through a series of failures, we’re better prepared for the bigger challenges we’ll face in the adult world: We’ll have the resilience we need to keep going. We’ll have true grit. 40. What did J. K. Rowling learn from her failure? A. She could have learnt about failure other way. B. She expected to have more discipline. C. She learned the secrets of success. D. She discovered more about herself. 41. What does the underlined word “prompted” mean in Paragraph 5? A. reminded. B. helped. C. inspired. D. allowed 42. What personal traits do the people in the text share? A. Gritty and determined. B. Confident and hardworking. C. Dedicated and brave. D. Inspiring and talented. 43. What is the best title for the passage? A The road to success. B. The importance of failure. C. The reasons behind failure. D. The benefits of success. 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，共10分)从七个选项中选出最佳选项 Huang Danian, the renowned Chinese geophysicist, was born in 1958 in Guangxi, China.

It is what makes people individual and unique. However, there are some shared personality qualities which let us talk about personality “types”. One of the most basic personality differences is between extroverts and introverts. These terms are used in many theories about personality types. They were made popular by the important Swiss psychiatrist (精神病学家) Carl Jung (1875-1961), although he did not invent them. Extroversion and introversion are ways of describing a person’s attitude towards the world: Do they move towards it or away from it? Extroverts are people who look outwards. They are friendly, sociable, talkative enthusiastic and self-confident. They are interested in a range of experiences and enjoy spending time with other people. They tend to act first, then think later. When extroverts feel bad, unmotivated or without energy, they look outside themselves. This means they might go shopping, call friends or have a party. Typical extrovert jobs are in politics, sales, teaching and management. Introverts, on the other hand, look inwards. They feel more comfortable alone and enjoy ideas and thinking. They are reserved, quiet, thoughtful and may be shy. They like to think and consider before taking action, and will often analyse before speaking. In contrast to extroverts, they value fewer, but deeper experiences. When feeling bad or stressed, introverts look inside themselves for energy and motivation. Introverts often work as artists, writers, engineers and inventors. Although personality types are different, most people have both extrovert and introvert characteristics in their personality, but often they are more one type than the other. There has been some interesting research into why people are basically extroverts or introverts. Some people say that extroverts and introverts are born not made. Others believe that the environment is more important in shaping one’s personality. Attitudes towards introverts and extroverts vary in different cultures. For example, Americans value extrovert qualities. However, cultures such as those in central Europe and southeast Asia regard introvert characteristics more highly. Interestingly, research shows that people who live on islands tend to be more introverted. Studies have also found that extroverts have higher happiness levels than introverts. 49.
