We all know that some things are obviously right. For example, it is right to be 1 to other people. It is also right to look after the environment. Some things are 2 wrong, too. For instance, we should not hurt or bully（欺负）others, nor should we litter. Rules often tell us what is right or wrong.
Rules can help the public make the right 3 , and remain safe. Car drivers have to obey traffic regulations that tell them the right things to do on the road to avoid crashes. Cyclists who give signals before turning or stopping help prevent 4 .
If people follow rules without taking other matters into consideration, it will be 5 for them to form what is sometimes called a “black and white” view (黑白分明的观点). For example, they may believe that people should always tell the truth, and that lying is 6 acceptable. Such people always stick to their views, even if it means that they may get into 7 .
Sometimes it may not be so easy to know 8 what is right or wrong. Some people choose not to eat meat because they believe that it is 9 to eat animals, but others argue that they can eat meat and 10 be kind to animals; some insist that stealing is always wrong, but others think that one does not need to feel so guilty (有罪的) when stealing some food to eat, if he lives in a really poor area and he is starving.
Rules help us live together in harmony, because they show us the right way to treat others. However, some people argue that rules may be confusing, having observed that rules change all the time, and that some schools have some regulations and others have different ones---so who is to decide what is right?

试题分析：本文就规章是否有助于人们判断是非做出议论。从正反两方面议论，首先说明规章在很多方面都是有利的，说明规章有助于人们辨别是非，作出正确选择，也有助于人与人的和睦相处，但有时判断是非也不容易。
小题1:考查形容词及上下文的呼应。kind友好的； sensitive易受伤害的； fair 公平的；generous大方的。根据后文look after the environment以及反面观点的hurt 和bully可知，此处应该为kind 友善。故选A。
小题2:考查副词及上下文的呼应。equally平等的； slightly轻微地； clearly清楚地，清晰地； . increasingly渐增地。与第一句some things are obviously right相对应，选择obviously的近义词clearly。故选 C。
小题3:考查名词及上下文的呼应。suggestions建议； conclusion结论； turns转弯；choices选择。由常识和下句 “…tell them the right things to do on the road”可知，规章是告诉人们对该如何做作出正确“选择”。故选D。
小题4:考查名词及上下文的呼应。accidents事故； mistakes错误； falls瀑布； deaths死亡。由常识和上文提到的avoid crashes 避免碰撞可知，此处应选择prevent accidents 防止意外。故选 A。
小题5:考查形容词及上下文的呼应。interesting有趣的； vital重要的； easy容易的；valuable有价值的。由逻辑推断可知，如果人们遵守规章而不用考虑其他事情，他们就很“easy”形成“黑白”观。故选C。
小题6:考查副词及上下文的呼应。seldom很少； rarely很少地； merely仅仅； never从不。因tell the truth与lying相对，而与always相对的应是never。故选D。
小题7:考查名词及上下文的呼应。trouble麻烦； power政权； prison监狱； control控制。get into prison 坐牢（过于严重）；get into control 控制。此处表达坚持“黑白观”的人很容易惹麻烦。故选A。
小题8:考查副词及上下文的呼应。roughly粗略地； eventually最后； deliberately故意地； exactly精确地。由下面的例子可知，有时很难“确切地”区分正确与错误。故选D。
小题9:考查形容词及上下文的呼应。awful可怕的； cruel残酷地； unhealthy不健康地；unnecessary 不必要的。由but可知，应选与下文中kind相对的cruel残忍。故选B。
小题10:考查副词及上下文的呼应。still仍然； even 甚至； later后来； somehow以某种方式。表达另一种吃肉的人的观点。虽然吃肉，但是仍然要对动物友善。故选A。
点评：该题型要求考生从整体上把握文章的逻辑结构和内容上的联系，理解句子之间、段落之间的关系，对诸如连贯性、一致性等语段特征有较强的意识和熟练的把握，并具备运用语法知识分析理解长难句的能力。可以说，此题型是对语言能力和阅读理解能力的综合测试，因此在要求上远远高于这两种题型，考生有必要对这类题型的答题思路多练习，以提高自己在这个部分的应试能力。 |

A great French writer has said that we should help everyone as much as we can because we often need help ourselves. The small even can help the great. About this, he told the following story.
An ant was drinking at a small river and fell in. she tried her best to reach the side, but she couldn’t move at all. The poor ant got too tired but was still doing her best when a big bird saw her. With a pity, the bird threw a piece of wood. With it the ant reached the bank again. While she was resting and drying herself in grass she heard a man coming up. He was walking without shoes on his feet and carrying a gun in his hand. As soon as he saw the bird, he wished to kill her, and he would certainly do so, but the ant bit(咬) him in one of his feet and at that moment the bird flew away at once. It was an animal much weaker and smaller than the bird herself that had saved her life.

In our life, we will have a lot of time to feel low. If there’s one thing that ruins us, which 48 us from doing what we’re 49 capable of and prevents us from achieving our dreams, it is fear of 50 .
Many of us go through our lives never knowing what we could have done and what has often been heard is that if only we hadn’t given up our 51 .
What if you had given up on 52 to talk, walk, read, ride a bike, or any other achievements before you were even five years old? How 53 would your life have turned out if you’d given up instead of 54 with them?

Another person’s enthusiasm was what set me moving toward the success I have achieved. That person was my stepmother.
I was nine years old when she entered our home in rural Virginia. My father __36__ me to her with these words: “ I would like you to meet the fellow who is __37__ for being the worst boy in this country and will probably start throwing rocks at you no __38__ than tomorrow morning.”
My stepmother walked over to me, __39__ my head slightly upward, and looked me right in the eye. Then she looked at my father and replied, “You are __40__. This is not the worst boy at all, __41__ the smartest one who hasn’t yet found an outlet(释放的途径) for his enthusiasm.
That statement began a(n) __42__ between us. No one had ever called me smart. My family and neighbors had built me up in my __43__ as a bad boy. My stepmother changed all that.
She changed many things. She __44__ my father to go to a dental school, from which he graduated with honors. She moved our family into the county seat, where my father’s career could be more __45__ and my brother and I could be better __46__.
When I turned fourteen, she bought me a secondhand __47__ and told me that she believed that I could become a writer. I knew her enthusiasm, I __48__ it, and I saw how it had improved our lives. I accepted her __49__ and began to write for local newspapers. I was doing the same kind of _ 50__ that great day I went to interview Andrew Carnegie and received the task which became my life’s work later. I wasn’t the __51__ beneficiary (受益者). My father became the __52__ man in town. My brother and stepbrothers became a physician, a dentist, a lawyer, and a college president.
What power _53__ has! When that power is released to support the certainty of one’s purpose and is __54__ strengthened by faith, it becomes an irresistible(不可抗拒的) force which poverty and temporary defeat can never __55__ .
You can communicate that power to anyone who needs it. This is probably the greatest work you can do with your enthusiasm.

I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career(职业)．
I wasn"t an excellent student because I didn"t do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn"t have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn"t the type to have a career.
I then found myself a job, looking after two little girls. It wasn"t too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in, so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she"d give me time off the next. But unfortunately, it didn"t often work out. I was getting extremely tired and fed up, because I had too many late nights and early morning with the children.
One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification(资格证书)if I wanted to work with children. I didn"t think I would be accepted because I didn"t take many exams in school. She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a parttime course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.
Now I"ve got a fulltime job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren"t top of the class at school.
小题1:What is the author"s present job?| A．Working parttime in a college. | | B．Helping children with their schoolwork. | | C．Looking after children at a kindergarten. | | D．Taking care of children for a family. |
小题2:When staying with the two girls" family, the author________.| A．was paid for extra work | | B．got much help from her boss | | C．took a day off every other week | | D．often worked long hours |
小题3:Why did the author leave her first job?| A．She decided to attend a parttime course. | | B．She found a fulltime job. | | C．She was fed up with children. | | D．She needed a rest after working extra hours. |
小题4:What has the author learned from her own experiences?| A．Qualifications are necessary for a career. | | B．Hard work makes an excellent student. | | C．One must choose the job she likes. | | D．Less successful students can still have a career. |

When something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, it’s soandso"s fault.”or “I know I"m late, but it"s not my fault; the car broke down.”It is probably not your fault, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation.This is the winner"s key to success.
Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or，you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don"t rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.
This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don"t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So，stop focusing on “whose fault it is.”Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stone for success.
小题1:According to the passage, winners __________.| A．meet with fewer difficulties in their lives | | B．have responsible and able colleagues | | C．blame themselves rather than others | | D．deal with problems rather than blame others |
小题2:The underlined word remedy in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to __________.| A．improve | B．avoid | C．accept | D．consider |
小题3:When your colleague brings about a problem, you should __________.| A．blame him for his lack of responsibility | | B．tell him to find the cause of the problem | | C．find a better way to handle the problem | | D．ask a more able colleague for help |
小题4:Which of the following is the best title for the passage?| A．A Winner"s Opportunity. | B．A Winner"s Problem. | | C．A Winner"s Secret. | D．A Winner"s Achievement. |
