Last week, my granddaughter started kindergarten. As is36, I wished her success. I was lying. What I actually wish for her is—37. I believe in the power of failure.
Success is38. Success is proving that you can do something that you already know you can do, or do something correctly the first time, which can39 be a problematical victory. First-time success is usually a fluke(侥幸). First-time failure, 40is expected; it is the natural order of things.
Failure is how we learn. I have been told of an African phrase41 a good cook as “she who has broken many pots”.

I have learned to48that column. A successful column usually means that I am treading(踩踏)on49ground, going with the tricks that work, or dressing up popular ideas in fancy words. Often in my inferior columns, I am trying to50 something I’v e never done before, something I’m not even sure can be done.
My granddaughter is a perfectionist. She will feel her failures, and I will want to 51her. But I will also, I hope, 52her of what she learned, and how she can do whatever it is53next time. I probably won’t tell her that failure is a good thing, because that’s not a(n)54you can learn when you’re five. I hope I can tell her, though, that it’s not the end of the world. Indeed, with luck, it is the55.

reward you. Tell me what you want. ”
“Sir, we want nothing, ”said the innkeeper. “But will
you tell us something? ”
“What is it? ”Napoleon asked.
“We have heard a story, ”said the innkeeper, “that once during the war, a small village was taken by the Russians. You happened to be in the village. You hid while they looked for you. Will you tell us how you felt when they were looking for you? ”Napoleon looked very angry. He called in two of his soldiers. Then he pointed to the door. The soldiers took the innkeeper and his wife out into the yard.
At the end of the yard was a wall. The innkeeper and his wife were led to the wall. The soldiers tied the hands of the innkeeper and his wife. Napoleon watched, saying nothing.
“Please, sir. ”begged the innkeeper, “Don’t kill us! We meant nothing! ”The soldiers moved back. The innkeeper saw them raising their guns. Then Napoleon

One of California’s poorest school districts, the
Coachella Valley Unified southeast of Los Angeles,
is currently rolling out iPads to every student. But,
as with tablet efforts across the country, this one
faces skeptics(怀疑)and obstacles(障碍). Some
wonder if its projected benefits are being grossly oversold.
Darryl Adams talks about his school district’s latest project. “Everyone will have an iPad! ”he says with a broad smile. “It’s going to be exciting! ”He argues that school districts have often failed to inspire kids. Instead, he says, they’ve been teaching them how to take tests. “And that’s not what education is about. So for the first time in our history as a nation, I think in the world, we’re going to be able to personalize education, ”Adams says.
But some districts have publicly stumbled(绊倒)with their initiatives(为解决困难采取的行动). Los Angeles Unified students easily got around restrictions on their district-issued iPads: They simply deleted their personal profile info and then could surf the Web without restriction.
Coachella Valley is trying to learn from LA’s problems. It’s working to strengthen profile security and will block harmful and inappropriate online contents. Some security measures should be a classroom management issue. Kids should have digital citizenship and proper use of the iPad.
At Coachella Valley High School, one of two high schools in the district, junior Cheyenne Hernandez says she’s open to new media in the classroom but wonders if
the iPad money might be better spent on other things. She says people will most likely steal them, break them or wear them out. “And in a student’s opinion, most of the kids are going to go on Facebook, Twitter. ”she says.
But Rebecca Flanagan wonders which ones the district will use, how well it will work and how it will all be integrated into a coherent plan. “That’s where I see the difficulty. The disconnect is between giving students an iPad to use and then making it relevant for the classroom, ”she says. “I mean, it’s a toy for them. ”
Large parts of the Coachella Valley are not covered by high-speed Internet. And even where it is available, many families here simply can’t afford the service.
59. In the opinion of Adams, iPad makes it.
A. possible to individualize education
B. exciting for students to take tests
C. important to inspire kids in school
D. practical to understand education
60. What lesson did Coachella Valley learn from LA’s problems?
A. Social media sites are blocked in classrooms.
B. Kids aren’t able to surf harmful online conte nts.
C. Students build their personal profile information.
D. A digital citizenship should be used properly.
61. According to Cheyenne, the iPad plan.
A. was completely a waste of time
B. kept a new media open to everyone
C. didn’t achieve what was expected to do
D. improved academic achievement greatly
62. What problem did Rebecca think the tablet plan has?
A. The understanding of parents.
B. The support of schools.
C. The shortage of money.
D. The lack of connectivity.
C
(2014·三明模拟) One in three American children is overweight
or obese, putting them at higher risk of developing
diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol(胆固
醇)and other illnesses. Billions of dollars are spent
every year treating obesity-related conditions. “None
of us wants this future for our kids. We have to act, so let’s move. ”Mrs. Obama said at the White House.
Being the First Lady and a mother of two children, Mrs. Obama has launched her campaign against childhood obesity in the US, hoping to encourage people to live healthier lives.
She admitted that she herself was not immune to the temptations of junk food. “I love burgers, fries, ice creams and cakes. And so do most kids, ”she stated, “We’re not talking about a lifestyle that dismisses all that. The question is how we help people balance that out so that they’re not facing life-threatening, preventable illnesses. Instead, they’re enjoying their food, they’re ea ting their vegetables, they’re
doing their running and walking and playing and still have time to get a good, fun meal in every once in a while. ”
The campaign contains four parts: helping parents make better food choices, serving healthier food in school vending machines and lunch lines, making healthy food more available and affordable, and encouraging children to exercise more.
The ambitious campaign, which Mrs. Obama hopes will be seen as her legacy(遗产), is intended to solve the childhood obesity problem in a generation, so that children born today can reach adulthood at a healthy weight. “This isn’t like a disease where we’re still waiting for the cure to be discovered. We know the cure for this, ”she said.
President Barack Obama praised his wife for dealing with what he called one of “the most urgent health issues facing the country”. “This has enormous promise in improving the health of our children, and in giving support to parents to make the kinds of healthy choices that are often very difficult, ”he said.
63. Mrs. Obama’s launched the campaign because she.
A. was strongly persuaded by other mothers
B. wanted to help the president with his work
C. found that her own children were also obese
D. hoped to call on people to lead healthier lives
64. It can be inferred from what Mrs. Obama said that.
A. people should balance healthy food and junk food
B. junk food should be rejected by teenagers
C. she hated junk food so as to completely avoid it
D. children were too cautious about junk food
65. President Obama appreciates the campaign because.
A. it is really a good way for his wife to help him by sharing his concern
B. he realizes that the obesity problem is the most urgent global issue
C. it contributes to the improvement of childhood health in America
D. he totally understands how tough it will be to carry out the campaign
66. After reading the passage, we know it is implied in the text that.
A. obesity will not exist anywhere in American society any longer
B. the campaign will lead to objections from junk food producers
C. settling childhood obesity is the basis of good health in adulthood
D. Obama regards the childhood obesity as the same as curing diseases
D
(2014·安庆模拟) When I first told people I was going to work in Cameroon, the most common reaction was: “Why? ”The second was: “It’s in Africa; you’ll die! ”The third: “Why is that? ”So let me give some answers. I was offered a job that looked interesting in a part of the world I’d never been to before. I’d also long had an interest in Africa, so I decided to find out the reality. A small amount of research showed that in more than 40 years since gaining independence, Cameroon has been a peaceful country with no wars. Not only were there no wars, but Cameroon is a food exporter to the region.
Now, after three years, I can say that these have been the healthiest years of my life! No malaria or any of the other frightening diseases you read about when Africa
is mentioned. The worst thing that ever happened to me was a bout(一阵)of poisoning—once.
So what is it like to teach here? Well not surprisingly, not so different from anywhere else. Most students came to us with a bit of English in their heads. Cameroon is a bilingual country with French and English as official languages, while there are also close to 200 local ethnic languages in a country of 16 million. French is the dominant language, spoken by about 80% of the population.
The local school system is very traditional and somewhat strict. Perhaps not surprisingly when there can be up to 150 students in the classroom(of which maybe 30 have the books, and there are probably seats for 70). Like anywhere, students appreciate it if you know a bit about their country, and not just Roger Milla(top scorer of the 1990 World Cup, in case you are wondering). It helps if you know the names of the ten provinces, know who the first President was, or can say a word in a local language. So in conclusion: Cameroon isn’t just football. Nor is it war, poverty and disease. It’s just life and people, like anywhere else.
67. On hearing the writer’s decision, most people.
A. admired him
B. considered it as a joke
C. didn’t understand him
D. thought it was reasonable
68. According to the passage, Cameroon is.
A. peaceful after liberation
B. a poor country, especially lack of food
C. quite different from others in education
D. a country where many children have malaria
69. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Almost all students in Cameroon have textbooks.
B. Lacking enough medicines leads to many frightening diseases.
C. There must be a lot of people suffering from food poisoning.
D. Cameroon is not as bad as people commonly believed.
70. Which language is spoken by about eighty percent of the population in Cameroon?
A. A local dialect.
B. French.
C. An ethnic language.
D. English.

(2014·宿迁模拟) Have you ever wondered: What drives successful people? Take a look around and talk to your friends and seniors who are very successful, you will see all of them have adopted certain values which have proved vital for their success.
It is evident that successful people take initiative(主动性). When they find something needs to be done, they just do it instead of waiting. They believe that responsibility is taken, not given. They weigh immediately what has to be done and then do it with pleasure, thus strengthening their reputation.
Successful people are enthusiastic about the things they do, especially when they believe in what they are doing. They are motivated by their own satisfaction and the joy they get from doing their work. They work hard even when no one is watching and they throw themselves into their work.
They do not fear failure. Failures and disappointments in life are unavoidable. It is failure that teaches us much more than success. Successful people pick themselves up after a fall and try again with more determination and commitment and learn from each failure. They associate with those they can learn from and enjoy the company of those who appreciate their achievement.
Having good IQ often gets a person what he wants but it’s really the EQ that keeps him there and helps him enjoy a high reputation. Successful people are polite to everyone and treat others with respect. By giving respect to others, they command respect for themselves.
Another important quality of successful persons is that they never complain. It’s better to praise others and win favor with them. So instead of complaining about a situation, successful people always try to solve it.
To put it shortly, take initiative and be enthusiastic about them. Do not be afraid to fail, but get up and start again. When you do so, success will be just around the corner.
