【原文】M: At dawn on January 17th, 1995, the city of Kobe was rocked by earthquake tremors. The worst tremors reached 7.2 on the Richter scale. Kobe is Japan’s sixth largest city. It is also one of the world’s largest ports. Within minutes, Kobe was a disaster area. How bad was the damage? The earthquake was the worst to hit Japan in 72 years. There were more than 6,000 people dead. More than 35,000 were injured, and nearly 310,000 were left homeless. Some 75,000 buildings were damaged or destroyed. Total damage was estimated at $90 billion. What did people learn from the Kobe earthquake? What happened in Kobe suggests that the earthquake hazard was not taken seriously enough. Some people believe that more can be done to reduce the damage. They propose the following. More work should be put into quake-proof buildings. Walls should be built to protect towns on the coast from large waves. Providers of emergency services must be better trained and better prepared. Citizens must be better educated on what to do when an earthquake strikes. The major barrier to doing more is cost. Japan finds itself trying to balance the cost against the risk of a strong earthquake.

A few years ago, my wife and I had a chance to live in New York for a year. I’ve always loved jogging, so I was really happy when I found the apartment we lived in was next to the Central Park. I could go for a run before I went to work every morning.
Because a lot of people had told me to be careful of robbers (抢劫者) in the park, I didn’t usually take anything with me. How could they rob me if I didn’t have anything? But one morning my wife asked me to buy some bread on the way home, so I put a $10 bill in my back pocket.
While I was running through the park, another jogger ran into me. He apologized and continued running. I thought it was kind of strange, so I checked my pocket and found that the money was missing. I immediately started to run after the jogger. I finally caught up and took him by the arm. I started shouting and demanding that he should give me the $10 bill. This seemed to frighten him, and he quickly put his hand in his pocket and gave me the money. Then he ran away as fast as he could.
I bought the bread and went home. As soon as I got home, I began to tell my wife my story. “You won't believe what happened to me,” I started. She immediately stopped me, “1 know. You left the money for the bread on the kitchen table.”

27. What's the main idea of the text?

【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“She immediately stopped me, “1 know. You left the money for the bread on the kitchen table.”(她立刻拦住我,“我知道,你把买面包的钱放在厨房桌子上了。”)”可知,作者把妻子让他买面包的钱落在了厨房的桌子上了。由此推知,作者是粗心的人。故选A。

New evidence suggests that studying Chinese and learning to write Chinese characters may train cognitive (认知) abilities, which are not developed by learning other languages and writing systems.
A study conducted by researchers from the UK’s Wellcome Trust found that people who speak Chinese use both temporal lobes (颞叶) of their brain to understand the language. This is very different from English-language speakers who use only the left temporal lobe. Speakers of Chinese use intonation (语调) to tell between completely different meanings of particular words, which needs stronger cognitive abilities.
Besides, the practice of handwriting, especially of Chinese characters, will aid the development of motor skills, learning shapes and letters and will keep the mind sharp. Through the use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, researchers found that neural (神经的) activity in children who practiced printing letters by hand was more strengthened than those who just looked at them. Compared with English, mostly written in line and from left to right, Chinese characters have more complex in structure (复杂的结构). Their writing involves strokes (笔画) in all four directions: up, down, left, and right. The movement of the fingers and hand helps improve neural activity in the working, thinking, and memory of the brain of the learners.
Evidence also suggests that there is a connection between the learning of Chinese and math skills. Researchers from New Zealand noticed that Asian children educated in their own languages appear to have gained a greater understanding of math ideas than English-speaking children. During the natural learning process of Chinese, the student is learning basic math ideas. Math skills are included in character writing because it includes skills such as counting, grouping, ordering, and identifying similarities and differences.
While the research on the relationship between the learning of Chinese and cognition is not yet fully clear, there is good evidence to suggest that learning Chinese tones and characters represents an added challenge to language learning.
28. What is the text centred on?
A. Why Asian children are better at math test.
B. Why Chinese is a difficult language to learn.
C. How learning Chinese benefits our cognition.
D. How Chinese writing differs from English writing.
29. What does the study by UK’s Wellcome Trust show?
A. English speakers should learn Chinese.
B. Chinese has more intonations than English.
C. Using Chinese needs a higher-level brain activity.
D. Mastering different meanings of Chinese is difficult.
30. Why is learning Chinese beneficial to solving math problems?
A. They need quite different cognitive abilities. B. Chinese writing looks like math symbols.
C. Chinese children naturally do well in math. D. They share several key cognitive abilities.
31. How is the text mainly developed?
A. By offering supporting findings. B. By comparing former research.
C. By discussing problems and solutions. D. By listing advantages and disadvantages.
【答案】28. C 29. C 30. D 31. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了研究表明,学习汉语有利于提高认知能力,解释了研究开展的经过以及发现。
【28题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,并根据第一段“New evidence suggests that studying Chinese and learning to write Chinese characters may train cognitive (认知的) abilities, which are not developed by learning other languages and writing systems.(新的证据表明,学习汉语和学习汉字可以训练认知能力,这是学习其他语言和书写系统无法培养的)”可知,文章的中心是学习汉语如何有益于我们的认知。故选C。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“This is very different from English-language speakers who use only the left temporal lobe. Speakers of Chinese use intonation (语调) to tell between completely different meanings of particular words, which needs stronger cognitive abilities.(这与只使用左颞叶的英语使用者非常不同。汉语使用者使用语调来区分特定词语的完全不同的意思,这需要较强的认知能力)”可知,说中文的人使用语调来区分某些特定词汇完全不同的含义,这种特性使得说中文的人要具备更高的认知能力来理解语言。故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Math skills are included in character writing because it includes skills such as counting, grouping, ordering, and identifying similarities and differences.(数学技能包含在汉字写作中,因为它包括计数、分组、排序和识别异同等技能)”可知,汉字书写融入了数学技能,因为它涉及计数、分组、排序、辨别异同等技能。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“A study conducted by researchers from the UK’s Wellcome Trust found that people who speak Chinese use both temporal lobes (颞叶) of their brain to understand the language.(英国威康基金会的研究人员进行的一项研究发现,说中文的人使用大脑的两个颞叶来理解语言)”以及第三段“Through the use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, researchers found that neural(神经的) activity in children who practiced printing letters by hand was more strengthened than those who just looked at them.(通过使用磁共振成像技术,研究人员发现,练习手写字母的孩子的神经活动比那些只看字母的孩子更强)”可知,该文章通过列举来自英国Wellcome Trust的研究成果,引用通过Magnetic Resonance Imaging技术得到的研究成果,以及呈现来自新西兰的研究成果来论证学习汉语有利于提高认知能力。故选A。
D
My daughter said she wanted to redeem (重新装修) her room. The thought of tackling a room redecorating project intimidated me, but I knew that following through on helping my girl create a new space for herself would mean a lot to her. So, I worked up my courage.
Together, my daughter and I set a budget for our project, spread paint samples on her wall and calculated how much paint we would need. And finally — a deep breath — we started painting. Neither of us had ever painted a room before. After rolling a paint roller across her wall for the first time, my daughter frowned and said, “Maybe we should hire someone to do the painting for us, Mom.”
I couldn’t help wondering if she might be right, but I assured her that if we followed the painting pointers we had studied and took our time, we could do a fine job. I didn’t want her to miss out on the wonderful feeling of competence that comes from trying something you want to do but fear you might not be able to do.
There had been many times when we’d realized we had been in the wrong way and had to do it again. We had to problem-solve with whoever might help. Finally, we finished the painting. It was not perfect, but the overall effect made my daughter really happy. It was her ideas and work that made all visible.
Thinking about doing such a project with my daughter, it struck me that she got to see me being a rank beginner-messing up and starting over all the way. She watched me looking up answers when I needed them and asking for help when I hit dead ends. Instead of being an authority with all the answers, I learned with her. I showed my daughter what learning looks like, in all its messy glory. That’s definitely the best part I’ll treasure.
32. What does the underlined word “intimidated” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Inspired. B. Confused. C. Impressed. D. Frightened.
33. Why didn’t the author hire a painter?
A. To exhibit her talent for decoration.
B. To overcome her fear of failure.
C. To keep the project under budget.
D. To make the kid enjoy the joy of success.
34. What does the author think is the most rewarding part of this redecoration?
A. Being a model learner.
B. Being a success in decorating.
C. Being a rank beginner.
D. Being an authority with all answers.
35. Which of the following best describes the author?
A. Energetic. B. Reflective. C. Encouraging. D. Respectful.
【答案】32. D 33. D 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者和女儿一起重新装修女儿的房间的经历及从中得到的收获。
【32题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“but I knew that following through on helping my girl create a new space for herself would mean a lot to her. So, I worked up my courage.(但我知道,坚持帮助我的女儿为自己创造一个新的空间对她来说意义重大。所以,我鼓起勇气)”可知,划线词与下文是转折关系,说明作者起初想到要处理房间重新装修项目,她感到害怕。由此可知,intimidated与frightened“使害怕”意思一致。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“I didn’t want her to miss out on the wonderful feeling of competence that comes from trying something you want to do but fear you might not be able to do.(我不想让她错过那种美妙的能力感,这种感觉来自于尝试你想做但担心你可能做不到的事情)”可知,作者拒绝聘请油漆匠是为了让孩子享受成功的喜悦。故选D。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Instead of being an authority with all the answers, I learned with her. I showed my daughter what learning looks like, in all its messy glory. That’s definitely the best part I’ll treasure.(我没有成为掌握所有答案的权威,而是和她一起学习。在所有混乱的荣耀中,我向女儿展示了学习是什么样子的。这绝对是我最珍惜的部分)”可知,作者认为这次重新装修最有收获的部分是成为榜样学习者。故选A。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“We had to problem-solve with whoever might help. Finally, we finished the painting.(我们必须与任何能帮忙的人一起解决问题。最后,我们完成了这幅画)”和最后一段“She watched me looking up answers when I needed them and asking for help when I hit dead ends. Instead of being an authority with all the answers, I learned with her. I showed my daughter what learning looks like, in all its messy glory. (当我需要答案时,她看着我查找答案,当我陷入绝境时,她会寻求帮助。我没有成为掌握所有答案的权威,而是和她一起学习。在所有混乱的荣耀中,我向女儿展示了学习是什么样子的)”可推知,作者是一个反思型的家长。故选B。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Music helps us exercise, but why does it have this effect? Scientists say there are two main reasons.
The first is simple: music distracts (使……分心)us. ___36___ After we exercise for 20 minutes, for example, our body may be tired. But because of the music, we may not feel this right away. As a result, we will exercise a little longer.
___37___ When we hear dance music, for example, we naturally start to move to the beat (节拍). An upbeat (欢快的) song also makes us feel happier. This gives us energy and helps us exercise longer.
___38___ In an experiment, Fritz put 61 people in small groups. Then, they all exercised twice. The first time, each group worked out for six minutes while listening to music. The second time, they exercised for six minutes on special Jymmin machines. On these machines, each group made music as they moved. ___39___
How does Fritz explain this? Maybe people did better on the Jymmin machines because they had more control, he says. People created the beat. They could make it go faster or slower. Also, each group was making music together and having fun. ___40___ For example, it may even be a good way to treat depression (抑郁症).
Fill in each blank in the article with a proper sentence given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you will need.
A. Music can also motivate (激发) us.
B. We often give up exercising because of tiredness.
C. Scientists have proved these two points through an experiment.
D. When we listen to a song we like, our brain pays attention to the music.
E. In the future, Fritz wants to find out if Jymmin exercise can help with some illnesses.
F. However, according to a new study by scientist Tom Fritz, this is only part of the explanation.
G. At the end, 53 of the 61 people said the same thing: they felt less tired when they exercised on the Jymmin machines.
【答案】36. D 37. A 38. F 39. G 40. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章解释音乐有助于锻炼的两因:分心和激励,还提及Fritz实验显示用Jymmin机器锻炼更不累,其未来想研究该锻炼对疾病的帮助。
【36题详解】
根据前文“The first is simple: music distracts(使……分心)us.( 第一个原因很简单:音乐会分散我们的注意力)”提出“音乐使人分心”,以及后文“After we exercise for 20 minutes, for example, our body may be tired. But because of the music, we may not feel this right away.( 例如,在我们运动20分钟后,我们的身体可能会感到疲倦。但因为音乐的关系,我们可能不会马上感受到)”举例说明运动后身体疲劳但因音乐未察觉。D选项“When we listen to a song we like, our brain pays attention to the music.( 当我们听喜欢的歌时,大脑会关注音乐)”解释了“分心”的具体表现 —— 大脑聚焦音乐而忽略疲劳感,衔接上下文逻辑。故选D项。
【37题详解】
根据下文“When we hear dance music, for example, we naturally start to move to the beat (节拍)。An upbeat (欢快的) song also makes us feel happier. This gives us energy and helps us exercise longer.( 例如,当我们听到舞曲时,我们会很自然地跟着节拍移动。一首欢快的歌也会让我们感到更快乐。这给我们能量,帮助我们锻炼更长时间)”可知,这一段讲音乐能让我们跟着节拍动,欢快的歌给我们能量,帮助我们运动更久,是在说音乐的激励作用。A 选项“Music can also motivate (激发) us.( 音乐也能激励我们)”能概括这一段内容,是该段主旨,总领后文。故选A项。
【38题详解】
根据上文内容可知,已介绍科学家提出的“两个主要原因”,以及后文“In an experiment, Fritz put 61 people in small groups. Then, they all exercised twice.( 在一个实验中,Fritz把61个人分成了几个小组)”转而讲述Fritz的新实验,说明原有解释并不完整。F选项“However, according to a new study by scientist Tom Fritz, this is only part of the explanation.( 然而,根据科学家Tom Fritz的新研究,这只是部分解释)”用“however”转折,引出新研究,衔接自然。故选F项。
【39题详解】
前文“The first time, each group worked out for six minutes while listening to music. The second time, they exercised for six minutes on special Jymmin machines. On these machines, each group made music as they moved.( 第一次,每组在听音乐的同时锻炼六分钟。第二次,他们在特殊的Jymmin器械上锻炼了六分钟。在这些机器上,每个小组一边移动一边制作音乐)”描述实验过程(两次锻炼:听音乐锻炼、用Jymmin机器锻炼),此处需补充实验结果。G选项“At the end, 53 of the 61 people said the same thing: they felt less tired when they exercised on the Jymmin machines.( 最后,61人中的53人表示:用 Jymmin 机器锻炼时感觉更不累)”直接呈现实验数据,符合“过程→结果”的叙述逻辑。故选G项。
【40题详解】
后文“For example, it may even be a good way to treat depression(抑郁症).( 例如,它甚至可能是治疗抑郁症的好方法)”举例“可能有助于治疗抑郁症”,说明Fritz研究的延伸方向。E选项“In the future, Fritz wants to find out if Jymmin exercise can help with some illnesses.( 未来,Fritz想弄清楚Jymmin锻炼是否能对某些疾病有帮助)”提出未来研究目标,后文举例正是对该目标的具体说明,衔接紧密。故选E项。

【详解】考查连词和短语。“我气坏了,一整天我在学校都躲着她”和“到现在也不想回复她网上发过来的任何消息”为顺承关系,用and连接;表示“回复……”用respond to,feel like doing“想做某事”是固定搭配,因此respond用动名词形式。故填and;responding to。
72. 通常,亲密的友情能助我们踏平时而坎坷却又注定要经过的道路。
More often than not, close friendships will help________________ the sometimes rocky road________________ we are all meant to travel.

【答案】Hi Coward,
I’m sorry to know that you have trouble adapting yourself to senior high school. However, the situation is easy to change if you take my suggestions into consideration.
First of all, why not communicate with your teacher face to face? By doing this, your teacher will know your inner thoughts and help you solve this problem. What’s more, if I were you, I would be engaged in various kinds of activities held by class actively. More importantly, it would be a good idea if you made some friends with common interests. If you do this, you can share happiness and sadness with them and help you get to know them to get rid of loneliness at high school.
I hope you will find these ideas useful, and fit in well with your new school. Look forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

A few years ago, my wife and I had a chance to live in New York for a year. I’ve always loved jogging, so I was really happy when I found the apartment we lived in was next to the Central Park. I could go for a run before I went to work every morning.
Because a lot of people had told me to be careful of robbers (抢劫者) in the park, I didn’t usually take anything with me. How could they rob me if I didn’t have anything? But one morning my wife asked me to buy some bread on the way home, so I put a $10 bill in my back pocket.
While I was running through the park, another jogger ran into me. He apologized and continued running. I thought it was kind of strange, so I checked my pocket and found that the money was missing. I immediately started to run after the jogger. I finally caught up and took him by the arm. I started shouting and demanding that he should give me the $10 bill. This seemed to frighten him, and he quickly put his hand in his pocket and gave me the money. Then he ran away as fast as he could.
I bought the bread and went home. As soon as I got home, I began to tell my wife my story. “You won't believe what happened to me,” I started. She immediately stopped me, “1 know. You left the money for the bread on the kitchen table.”
24 What can we learn about the park in the story?
A. It was not a safe place to go to.
B. It was far from the writer’s flat.
C. It was not fit for morning jogging.
D. It served delicious and cheap bread.
25. Why did the jogger give the money to the author?
A. Because he stole the author’s money.
B. Because he failed in the running race.
C. Because he borrowed money from the author.
D. Because he thought the author was a robber.
26. Which word can best describe the author?
A. Careless (粗心的). B. Generous (慷慨的).
C. Careful. D. Brave.
27. What's the main idea of the text?
A. Two female (女性的) joggers in New York.

New evidence suggests that studying Chinese and learning to write Chinese characters may train cognitive (认知的) abilities, which are not developed by learning other languages and writing systems.
A study conducted by researchers from the UK’s Wellcome Trust found that people who speak Chinese use both temporal lobes (颞叶) of their brain to understand the language. This is very different from English-language speakers who use only the left temporal lobe. Speakers of Chinese use intonation (语调) to tell between completely different meanings of particular words, which needs stronger cognitive abilities.
Besides, the practice of handwriting, especially of Chinese characters, will aid the development of motor skills, learning shapes and letters and will keep the mind sharp. Through the use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, researchers found that neural (神经的) activity in children who practiced printing letters by hand was more strengthened than those who just looked at them. Compared with English, mostly written in line and from left to right, Chinese characters have more complex in structure (复杂的结构). Their writing involves strokes (笔画) in all four directions: up, down, left, and right. The movement of the fingers and hand helps improve neural activity in the working, thinking, and memory of the brain of the learners.
Evidence also suggests that there is a connection between the learning of Chinese and math skills. Researchers from New Zealand noticed that Asian children educated in their own languages appear to have gained a greater understanding of math ideas than English-speaking children. During the natural learning process of Chinese, the student is learning basic math ideas. Math skills are included in character writing because it includes skills such as counting, grouping, ordering, and identifying similarities and differences.
While the research on the relationship between the learning of Chinese and cognition is not yet fully clear there is good evidence to suggest that learning Chinese tones and characters represents an added challenge to language learning.
28. What is the text centred on?
A. Why Asian children are better at math test.
B. Why Chinese is a difficult language to learn.
C. How learning Chinese benefits our cognition.
D. How Chinese writing differs from English writing.
29. What does the study by UK’s Wellcome Trust show?
A. English speakers should learn Chinese.
B. Chinese has more intonations than English.
C. Using Chinese needs a higher-level brain activity.
D. Mastering different meanings of Chinese is difficult.
30. Why is learning Chinese beneficial to solving math problems?
A. They need quite different cognitive abilities. B. Chinese writing looks like math symbols.
C. Chinese children naturally do well in math. D. They share several key cognitive abilities.
31. How is the text mainly developed?
A. By offering supporting findings. B. By comparing former research.
C. By discussing problems and solutions. D. By listing advantages and disadvantages.
D
My daughter said she wanted to redeem (重新装修) her room. The thought of tackling a room redecorating project intimidated me, but I knew that following through on helping my girl create a new space for herself would mean a lot to her. So, I worked up my courage.
Together, my daughter and I set a budget for our project, spread paint samples on her wall and calculated how much paint we would need. And finally — a deep breath — we started painting. Neither of us had ever painted a room before. After rolling a paint roller across her wall for the first time, my daughter frowned and said, “Maybe we should hire someone to do the painting for us, Mom.”
I couldn’t help wondering if she might be right, but I assured her that if we followed the painting pointers we had studied and took our time, we could do a fine job. I didn’t want her to miss out on the wonderful feeling of competence that comes from trying something you want to do but fear you might not be able to do.
There had been many times when we’d realized we had been in the wrong way and had to do it again. We had to problem-solve with whoever might help. Finally, we finished the painting. It was not perfect, but the overall effect made my daughter really happy. It was her ideas and work that made all visible.
Thinking about doing such a project with my daughter, it struck me that she got to see me being a rank beginner-messing up and starting over all the way. She watched me looking up answers when I needed them and asking for help when I hit dead ends. Instead of being an authority with all the answers, I learned with her. I showed my daughter what learning looks like, in all its messy glory. That’s definitely the best part I’ll treasure.
32. What does the underlined word “intimidated” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Inspired. B. Confused. C. Impressed. D. Frightened.
33. Why didn’t the author hire a painter?
A. To exhibit her talent for decoration.
B. To overcome her fear of failure.
C. To keep the project under budget.
D. To make the kid enjoy the joy of success.
34. What does the author think is the most rewarding part of this redecoration?
A. Being a model learner.
B. Being a success in decorating.
C. Being a rank beginner.
D. Being an authority with all answers.
35. Which of the following best describes the author?
A. Energetic. B. Reflective. C. Encouraging. D. Respectful.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Music helps us exercise, but why does it have this effect? Scientists say there are two main reasons.
The first is simple: music distracts (使……分心)us. ___36___ After we exercise for 20 minutes, for example, our body may be tired. But because of the music, we may not feel this right away. As a result, we will exercise a little longer.
___37___ When we hear dance music, for example, we naturally start to move to the beat (节拍). An upbeat (欢快的) song also makes us feel happier. This gives us energy and helps us exercise longer.
___38___ In an experiment, Fritz put 61 people in small groups. Then, they all exercised twice. The first time, each group worked out for six minutes while listening to music. The second time, they exercised for six minutes on special Jymmin machines. On these machines, each group made music as they moved. ___39___
How does Fritz explain this? Maybe people did better on the Jymmin machines because they had more control, he says. People created the beat. They could make it go faster or slower. Also, each group was making music together and having fun. ___40___ For example, it may even be a good way to treat depression (抑郁症).
Fill in each blank in the article with a proper sentence given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you will need.
A. Music can also motivate (激发) us.
B. We often give up exercising because of tiredness.
C. Scientists have proved these two points through an experiment.
D. When we listen to a song we like, our brain pays attention to the music.
E. In the future, Fritz wants to find out if Jymmin exercise can help with some illnesses.
F. However, according to a new study by scientist Tom Fritz, this is only part of the explanation.
G. At the end, 53 of the 61 people said the same thing: they felt less tired when they exercised on the Jymmin machines.

I’m into reading books, of which a story is still kept alive in my memory.
It goes that a master wanted to go to India. In those days, they didn’t have the modern ___41___ that we do today, so the master went to India on foot. When he arrived at India, he saw a lot of fruit to sell, but much of it was too expensive. So when he saw a large basket of some very red, long fruit, and thought it might be the least ___42___ in the shop. Thus, he went up and asked, “How much per kilo?” And the shopkeeper said, “Two rupees.” Two rupees in India was ___43___; it was like dirt. So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it. But after he ate some of it: Oh, my God! His eyes watered; his mouth was burning; so was his head and his face became ___44___. As he coughed and choked and gasped for breath, he ___45___ up and down, saying, “Ah! Ah! Ah!” But he still continued to eat the “fruit”!
Some people who were looking at him ___46___ their heads and said, “You’re crazy, man. Those are chilies! You can’t eat so many; they’re not good for you! People use them as a condiment (调味品), but only a little bit to put into food for ___47___. You can’t just eat them by the handful like that; they’ re not fruit!” So the stupid master said, “No, I can’t stop! I paid money for them, and now I’ll eat them. It’s my ___48___!”
And you think that master was too stupid, right? ___49___, we sometimes do a lot of things like that. We ____50____ money, time or effort on a relationship, business or job. And ____51____ the previous bitter experience tells us it won’t work, and we know there’s no more ____52____ that things will change better in the future, we still continue just because we’ve invested money, time, effort and love in it. If so, there is something wrong with the ____53____. Just like the man who ate the chilies and suffered so much but couldn’t stop because he didn’t want to ____54____ the money he had paid.
So even if you’ve lost something, let it go and move on. That’s better to learn to ____55____ than continue to lose.
