题型:不详难度:来源:
I learned how to accept life as it is from my father.     . he did not teach me acceptance when he was strong and healthy, but rather when he was     and ill .
My father was     a strong man who loved being active. But a terrible illness     all that away. Now he can no longer walk. And he must sit quietly in a chair all day. Even talking is     . One night, I went to visit him with my sisters. I told them about one of my beliefs. I said that we must very often give things up      we grow our youth, our beauty, our friends, but it always     that after we give something up,we gain something new in its place. Then suddenly my father spoke up, “But, Peter, I gave up     !What did I gain?” I thought and thought, but I could not think of anything to say.        he answered his own question: “I     the love of my family.” I looked at my sisters and saw tears in their eyes along with hope and thankfulness.
I was also     by his words. After that, when I began to feel irritated (恼怒的) at someone, I would remember his words and become     . If he could replace his great pain with a feeling of love for others, then I should be     to give up my small irritations. In this     ,I learned the power of acceptance from my father.
Sometimes I      what other things I could have learned from him if I had listened more carefully when I was a boy. For now, though I am grateful for this one gift.

Once upon a time all feelings went to an island for a vacation, and each was having a good time. Suddenly, a warning of a strong storm was announced ,so all rushed to their boats. Yet, Love did not wish to run away quickly. There was so much to do. But as the clouds darkened, Love realized it was time to leave. But there were no boats to spare. Love looked around with hope.
Just then Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love shouted, "Richness, can you take me with you?" Richness answered, "No, I can"t. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."
Love decided to ask Vanity(虚荣) who was also passing by in a beautiful boat for help, But Vanity said with a cold voice, “No, I can’t take you with me. My boat will get dirty with your mummy feet.”
Sorrow passed by after some time. Again, Love asked for help. But it was useless. “No, I can’t take you with me. I am so sad. I want to be by myself.”
When Happiness passed by a few minutes later, Love again called for help. But Happiness was so happy that it hardly concerned about anyone else.
Love was growing restless and hopeless. Just then somebody called out, “Come, Love, I will take you with me.” Love did not know who was being so kind, but jumped onto the boat happily.

How can we improve our life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They’ll say, “this is my destiny (命运). I cannot change it.”
Certainly not! You don’t have to suffer too much. Your destiny depends on yourself, not on any other factors.
I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows. Huh! Is this what she calls “doing her best”? She believes she has tried her best. But in fact she hasn’t.
Remember that you get what you pay. You just don’t sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don’t expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don’t just regard it as a little failure, but use it as feedback (反馈). Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It’s not enough to think positively (积极地), you also have to act positively.
If someone’s life is in the trouble, do you just hope that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don’t just stand (or sit) there, do something to improve your life.
小题1:The writer’s attitude towards destiny is that ________.
A.we can change itB.we can’t depend on ourselves
C.we must accept itD.we have to suffer it
小题2:According to the passage, what should you do if something goes wrong?
A.Regard it as a little failure.B.Get your hands off your phone.
C.Sit around and wait for luck.D.Do something to solve the problem.
小题3:The underlined word “turn out” in the passage means ________.
A.翻转B.关闭
C.变得D.清空
小题4:From the passage, we know ________.
A.we only need to hope for the best in our life.
B.we can get what we pay if we think positively.
C.the woman has tried her best to improve her life.
D.maybe our luck will change if we do something about the life
小题5:What would be the best title for this passage?
A.Understand YourselfB.Improve Your Life
C.Believe in YourselfD.Accept Your Life

Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 AM. When I arrived there, I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute,” answered a weak, elderly voice.
After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.
When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, “Could you drive through downtown?”
“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly.
“Oh, I’m in no hurry,” she said. “I’m on my way to a hospice(临终医院). I don’t have any family left. The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(计价器).
For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.
Sometimes she’d ask me to slow down in front of a special building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
In the early morning, she suddenly said,” I’m tired. Let’s go now.”
We drove in silence to the address she had given me.
“How much do I pay you?” she asked.
“Nothing.” I said.
“You have to make a living,” she answered. “Oh, there are other passengers,” I answered.
Almost without thinking, I gave her a hug(拥抱). She held on me and said, “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.”
小题1:The old woman chose to ride through the city in order to ______.
A.show she was familiar with the city
B.see some places for the last time
C.let the driver earn more money
D.reach the destination on time
小题2:The taxi driver did not get the money because he ______.
A.wanted to give her a hand
B.shut off the meter by mistake
C.had received her payment already
D.was in a hurry to take other passengers
小题3:What can we learn from the story?
A.No pains, no gains.
B.People should respect(尊重) each other.
C.An act of kindness can bring people great joy.
D.People should learn to enjoy our life.
