小题4:联系上下文可知前后是因果关系,so后面句子指的是结果,故选A,因为玫瑰花是她最喜欢的。

小题6:联系下文But soon he found it was not a park 可知此时他认为年轻人是去了公园,故选B。
小题7:词义辨析。Loudly大声地;happily 高兴地;carefully小心地;hardly几乎不。结合语境可知他小心地把鲜花放下。故选C。
小题8:结合语境可知句意是:帮助我找到我的母亲,故选C。
小题9:联系下文John turned and quickly walked back to the shop.可知他什么其它的也没想,故选C,没有。

Have you ever complained why life is so tiring? Does the sky sometimes seem dark to you? Are your studies sometimes not successful? Well, friends, cheer up and smile all the time. If you see the world with your warm heart, you will find the whole world smiles to you.
While in school, sometimes you are tired of your lessons, but have you ever noticed the happy smile on your teacher’s face when you did a good job?
One day it is fine. Just before you want to go out, it suddenly starts to rain. Maybe you would feel very sad and start complaining about the weather. But dear friends, why don’t you sit down and listen to the concert that the nature offers you? And with the timely rain, crops in the fields will grow better and better and farmers will have a good harvest.
Although everyone wants to succeed in what he tries to do, sometimes failure can’t be avoided. I think failure is not terrible, and the terrible thing is what we are afraid of it and give up hope. When we face failure, we must be confident in ourselves, draw a useful lesson from it and try our best to finish what we have decided to do. As a popular saying goes, “Failure is the mother of success.”
Attitude decided everything. With an optimistic(乐观) attitude life is easy and pleasant. Let’s smile whatever we meet and the whole world will smile to us.
