As the saying goes,“Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles.” Travelling is a very popular thing now. And a long time ago,some people travelled around China and they got a lot from travelling.
About 400 years ago in China,there was a traveller. He travelled across China for about 30 years. His name was Xu Xiake.
Xu Xiake was born in Jiangsu Province. When he was a child,Xu enjoyed reading books about Chinese mountains and rivers. He decided to see them when he grew up.
At that time,many kids were studying hard to become officials. But Xu’s father never made him take exams. Instead,he encouraged his son to go out and get to know the world. Xu began his journey when he was about 22.Before he left,his mother made him a travelling hat to encourage him to travel.
Xu travelled to 21 provinces and over 100 cities in China. He climbed thousands of mountains and visited over 350 caves. He was the first person to find the highest peak of Mount Huangshan. He was also the first to find lots of karst caves(喀斯特溶洞).What’s more,he found the Yangtze River’s source(源头).All of these were very important for the later study of geography. Xu travelled mostly on foot. He slept and ate in nature. Sometimes he fell into rivers or ran into dangerous animals. But Xu was brave and enjoyed his journey.
Xu recorded his travel experiences in his diary. This later became a famous book called Xu Xiake’s Travel Notes.Thanks to this book,we can learn about China almost 400 years ago.“Exploring the unexplored” is the best description of Xu’s life.

①Nobody wants to lose,but we must accept that losing is a part of life. After all,we can’t win all the time. However,we can learn something valuable from every failure. This may help us succeed in the future. So we must know how to be a good loser.
②We must not be afraid of losing. When we lose,just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of it. Failure can’t be avoided in our life. Edison failed 10,000 times before he improved the light bulb(灯泡) and made it practical. When he was asked how he felt,he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times but had learnt 10,000 things which didn’t work. We must know that history is full of examples of men and women who achieved success although they failed many times.
③Losing is not very disgraceful(不光彩的).We must accept our failure and learn to take advantage of it. Remember that it can be helpful. Take action to walk out of it. When we lose,think about what we did and how we can improve. If someone else can help,we’ll be lucky enough. Maybe he or she has been through the same experience before. Many people enjoy helping others solve problems. This can save us a lot of time in learning how to avoid the same mistake in the future.
④We should face our failure when we lose. There is only one winner in every competition. Some win,while some lose. That is a usual way of life. If we offer our congratulations to the winners and enjoy their happiness,we won’t feel sorry for our failure.
⑤In a word,being a good loser will help us to succeed in life. It might be painful at the beginning,but there are many advantages. Good losers set examples to us,and most importantly,they finally win.
49. What can we learn from every failure according to the passage?
A. A way of life. B. A valuable thing. C. A general rule. D. A secret of success.
50. In the writer’s eyes,why did Edison achieve success?
A. He got help from others.
B. He happened to make it.
C. He avoided possible mistakes.
D. He saw the bright side of losing.
51. What does the writer advise the losers to do in a competition?

C. Enjoy the winners’ happiness. D. Join in another competition.

Yue Fei is a great hero in Chinese history. He was a famous general(将军) during the Song Dynasty. In 1125,a war(战争) between the Jin and the Song Kingdoms took place. Before Yue Fei left home to fight the Jin,his mother asked him,“Now the country is in danger. What do you plan to do?”
“Serve the country with my whole heart,” Yue said.
That was what his mother wished her son would do. She carved four Chinese characters—Jing Zhong Bao Guo onto his back,so he would never forget them.
His mother asked,“My child,it is really painful. Are you afraid?”
Yue said,“Mother,that is nothing. If I am afraid of it,how can I fight in the wars?”
Yue remembered those words in his heart and won the fights many times. Sadly,Yue was killed later because Qin Hui said bad words about him to the emperor. But people remembered his story and learnt from him.
Let’s put ourselves in the place of Yue Fei and his mother. When the country is in danger,everyone lives a hard life. Would you want to fight for your country? Some people might say no. But the young Yue Fei had such great courage that he was always ready to fight for his country. And it was not easy for his mother to encourage him to do so. Loving our country shouldn’t just be words. We need to act in our daily life.
