It is said that Bruce was taken heart and went on defeating the English later.
     Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right
way to make one.
     So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were you
in top form yourself? How can you make such things go right next time?
     Second, is the goal you are trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your
real goal may be. Think about this question ,"lf I do succeed in this ,where will it get me?"This may

     I"ve loved my mother"s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as Mother sat
doing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the
act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.
     Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. "But the
desk," she"d said again, "is for Elizabeth. "
      I never saw her anger, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a
young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter.
      They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was too "emotional (另动感情的) ".  But
she lived "on the surface".
     As years passed, I had my own family, I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I
wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive
(原谅) me.
     I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.
     My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest, finally, peace. It seemed that nothing happened.
I couldn"t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew I had written it, and I could stop
trying to make her into someone she was not.
     Now the present of her desk told me, as she"d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing
was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside-a photo of my father
and a one-page letter, folded (折叠) and refolded many times.
     Give me the answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that
speaks louder than words.
1. The writer began to love her mother"s desk _____
A. after Mother died
B. before she became a writer
C. when she was a child 
D. when Mother gave it to her
2. The passage shows that _____  
A. Mother was cold on the surface but kind in her heart to her daughter
B. Mother was too serious about everything her daughter had done
C. Mother cared much about her daughter in words
D. Mother wrote to her daughter in careful words
3. The word "gulf" in the passage means _____ 
A. deep understanding between the old and the young
B. different ideas between the mother and the daughter
C. free talks between mother and daughter
D. part of the sea going far in land
4. What did Mother do with her daughter"s letter asking for forgiveness? 
A. She had never received the letter.
B. For years, she often talked about the letter.
C.  She didn"t forgive her daughter at all in all her life.
D. She read the letter again and again till she died.
5. What"s the best title of the passage? 
A. My Letter to Mother
B. Mother and Children
C. My Mother"s Desk
D. Talks Between Mother and Me

     I"m confused (困惑) these days. We are taught at home and at school that using violence (暴力) is the
  least civilized (文明的) way to solve problems. For example, last week I thought about hitting my friend
 for winning a beautiful shell while we were playing at the beach. I talked with him instead and we came
 to an agreement. If two adults had a disagreement, and if they used violence towards each other in order
  to win, is it all right?
     When two countries disagree, they often fight a war. Why is using violence not okay at home, at school,
  or in your country but okay between countries? So many people have been killed because of wars, not
  only soldiers but ordinary people, even small children and babies. And refugees (难民) exist, too.
     A war is a great violence, like two people fighting over a shell, just much bigger. Adults say they are
  fighting wars in order to solve problems and make peace. But can you really "make peace" by killing so
 many people? I don"t think bombs (炸弹) can reach people"s hearts and change them. Bombs can"t
 create love and caring, and that"s what we need in the world. Why do adults use violence so quickly?
 Why can"t they use their wisdom (智慧) and talk it over?
     Adults might say that things are not that easy. But they are the ones that teach us to be kind, not to hurt
  people, and not to kill. Why don"t they act as what they say?
                                                                                    —A page from a 12-year-old boy, Joshua"s diary.
1. At the beach, Joshua _____.
    A. hit his friend
    B. won a beautiful shell
    C. played with a beautiful shell
    D. came to an agreement with his friend
2. Joshua hates wars between countries because _____.
    A. he is afraid of wars
    B. he doesn"t understand adults
    C. wars create death and refugees
    D. wars are not the only way to make peace
3. What"s the key to peace in Joshua"s opinion?
    A. Love and care for each other.
    B. Don"t use violence so quickly.
    C. Stop using bombs in wars.
    D. Don"t hurt or kill people in wars.
4. From the reading we can see Joshua wants adults to _____.
    A. learn from children
    B. be children"s models
    C. be kind to children
    D. teach children how to solve problems
