試題分析：短文大意：作者談論了對成功的理解。他講述了許多年前參加畫畫比賽獲獎的成功和失敗的經歷，進而闡述自己的人觀點，成功靠的是練習，哈斯有更少一點的幸運和機會。
小題1:考查動詞及語境理解.句意：一些人說初學者的運氣很大，然而別人卻相信成功伴隨實踐而來。move移動；come來到；return歸還;歸來；leave離開。根據句意及邏輯推理可知，此處應選B。
小題2:考查連詞及語境理解.句意：在某些方面每一種說法都對，但在其它方面則不正確。or 或者；so所以；and和； But但是。 前半句是肯定，后半句是否定，二者之間明顯構成了轉折關系。據此可知此處應選but。故選D。
小題3:考查動詞及語境理解.句意：例如，多年前我去參加一次繪畫比賽，令人驚訝地獲了獎。won獲勝;贏得；began開始；failed失敗；ended結束;結尾。 根據下句“As a prize, I got a film ticket to see “Titanic”.”可知，“我獲了獎”。所以選A。
小題4:考查形容詞及語境理解.句意：我確實很幸運，因為那是我第一次參加競賽。sorry抱歉的；active ；積極的；lucky幸運的；nervous緊張的。 根據后半句“Thinking that I might be lucky again,”可知，此處應用“幸運”一詞。所以選C。
小題5:t考查動詞及語境理解.句意：考慮到我可能會再次走運，我試著又參加了一次美術比賽。tried嘗試；forgot忘記；forgot停止；remembered記住;想起。根據句意及邏輯推理可知，本題應選A。
小題6:考查副詞及語境理解.句意：但是結果卻是我再也沒有獲過獎often經常；ever曾經；seldom很少;幾乎沒有；never 絕不;從來不。 根據下句“I accepted the fact that the other people had a 52 artistic ability than I did.”可知：作者接受了別人比自己更有藝術能力的事實。這說明“我此次沒有獲獎”，故此處應是表全部否定的句子。故選D。
小題7:考查形容詞及語境理解.句意：我接受了別人比自己更有藝術能力的事實greater更大的；more natural更自然的；lower更低的；more common更普通的。 空格后面有than一詞，說明此處是表比較的句子。故此處應用形容詞的比較級形式。根據前句“但是結果卻是我再也沒有獲過獎”可知，“在藝術能力方面別人比我強”。所以選A。
小題8:考查名詞及語境理解.句意：因此，我創(chuàng)作的畫并不是高水平的作品。results結果；film電影；prizes獎金;獎品;獎章；drawings畫。 根據句意及邏輯推理可知本題應選drawings。根據第2段第1句“For example, I went to a drawing competition many years ago”可知：作者是以自己參加繪畫比賽的事情為例的。故選D。
小題9:考查介詞短語及語境理解.句意：盡管我在剛開始時可能已經很幸運了，但是我還需要全身心地投入到艱苦的創(chuàng)作中去。at last最后；at most至多；at first最初;開始;首先；at least至少。 根據短文內容可知，作者在剛開始時很幸運地獲了獎，但隨后卻沒有獲過獎，故此處應用“開始”一詞。所以選C。

Taking away a city’s rubbish is a big job. Every day trucks come into a city to collect it. Most rubbish is made up of things we can't eat or use. If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.
In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of city to a dump. Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system. The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs and other places.
To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then you’d never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.
In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal. Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus(腐殖質), which looks like black earth. It is rich with the kinds of things that feed plants and help them grow.
小題1:Where is the rubbish put after it is taken outside of city?
A．On the mountainB．In the water
C．In low placesD．In special places
小題2:The main idea of the passage is_________.
A．to let us know taking away rubbish is a big job
B．to explain the need for rubbish collection
C．to introduce different ways to treat rubbish
D．to tell people to take useful things out of rubbish
小題3:The underlined word "sewage" in the passage means_________.
A．排污B．染色
C．洗滌D．吸塵
小題4:According to the passage, the food parts of rubbish can be used again_________.
A．to feed animalsB．to feed plants
C．to build a houseD．to make machines
小題5:How should we take care of a used metal box according to the passage?
A．By burning it off.
B．By putting it in water.
C．By throwing it away.
D．By reusing and recycling it.

閱讀下列短文，根據短文信息完成文后表格，每空一詞。
Making a public speech is the thing that most people don’t want to do. The reason is that we are all afraid of making mistakes in front of others. The more important the speech is, the more frightened we will be. But forget it now. Public speaking is easy. It’s just a simple talking, Although I’m a shy man, I’ve been making speeches and talking on radio and television for more than 30 years. Anybody who can talk can speak in public. Here are some of the lessons I have learned:
Keep your speech simple. Your audience can’t take all of your main ideas, and they can only remember one or two of them, not ten or twenty. So you should prepare one or two of your main ideas very well. But if you can’t express what you want to say, then your speech will not be paid attention to. And if you don’t have a clear idea of what you want to say, your audience won’t, either.
Organize your speech well. No matter how long or short your speech is, you have to organize your speech—how you are going to open or begin, what main points you want to make and how you’re going to close or end. A strong close is usually very important and critical(關鍵的): the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember. If not, they will be confused.
Keep your speech not long. The standard (標準的) length of a speech is usually 12 minutes. Most people can’t put their minds in one thing for too long time, which will make them tired and lose their interest. If you pay no attention to your audience’s reaction(反應)，the audience will get bored. Of course, your speech will fail.
Following these suggestions above, you can make a good speech in public, and you will be an excellent speaker, I think.

San Russell is not your average(一般的) baseball fan. He is a die-hard Boston Red Sox fan. He has a season ticket and he arranges his work schedule so he does not miss a game. San also attends game dressed in their uniform, and his car is red. He has even lost some friends by choosing to watch the Red Sox instead of going to their weddings. Is this healthy behavior?
Although Russell’s case is extreme, being a sports fan can be healthy for you. According to a study at the University of Kansan in the USA, sports fans suffer from depression less than people who are not interested in sports, fans also experience other effects from watching their team play. When their team wins a game, their own confidence and happiness increase, just like the athletes. Losing, on the other hand, always leads to some sense of disappointment.
What about die-hard fans whose team always loses? The team spirit keeps those fans from losing hope. Knowing that other fans are probably feeling the same way also helps them. In addition, there is always the hope that their team will win the next game. Russell has lost some friends because of his love for baseball and although you may think that would make him unhappy, he has made many more new friends because of his team spirit.
