Pete Rose was a great baseball player. Though I have never met him, he taught me something    that changed my life.
  Pete was being    in spring training the year he was about to break Ty Cobb's all-time hits record. Suddenly one reporter asked him, "Pete, you only need 78 hits to reach your nearest   . How many at-bats(擊球)do you think it'll take you to get the 78 hits?" Without hesitation, Pete just   at the reporter and said,"78." The reporter yelled back, "Ah, come on, Pete, you don't think you'll get 78 hits in 78 at-bats, do you?"
  Mr. Rose calmly   his philosophy(哲理,觀點(diǎn)) with the reporters who were   waiting for his reply to the claim. "Every time I   up to the plate(擊球區(qū)),I    to get a hit!   I have it in mind,I have no right to step into the batter's(擊球手)box! It is    expectation that has enabled me to get all of the hits in the first place."
  When I thought about Pete Rose's     and how it applied to everyday  ,I felt a little embarrassed. As a business person,I was hoping to increase my   . As a father,l was hoping to be a good dad. As a married man,I was hoping to be a good husband. The truth was that I was a fairly good salesperson,I was not so    a father,and I was an okay husband. I immediately decided that being okay was not   ! I wanted to be a great salesperson,a great father and a great husband. I   my attitude to a positive one,and the results were   .I was fortunate enough to win a few sales trips,I won Coach of the Year in my     baseball league,and I share a loving relationship with my wife,Karen,with whom I am     to enjoy the rest of my life!
    ,Mr. Rose!

Iceland is a popular European tourist destination. Before you go there, it is good to learn some of the basic Iceland customs first.
Just like other countries in Europe, it is one of the customs in Iceland to shake hands and say “Hello”. Kissing each other’s cheeks is acceptable along with wishing each other a happy day.
Another custom is to take off your shoes in the hallway(走廊) when you enter someone’s home. Also, don’t be surprised if someone invites you to their house, since Icelanders love to have guests. Just make sure you take flowers or a similar token of thanks to give them.
If you have been invited to eat, keep in mind that you don’t need to express thanks before meals like the French or the Japanese. Rather, eat heartily and then thank your host afterwards by shaking his hand.
Keep in mind that believing in mysterious beings is part of the tradition in Iceland. Indeed, most of the unique and sometimes strange rock formations in Iceland are due to elves(小精靈), according to the people of Iceland.
Are you planning to spend Christmas in Iceland? If so, make sure you practice saying “Gleileg jol got tog fars!” first, which is the local Christmas greeting. It is part of the tradition in Iceland to have long Christmas holidays—26 days—longer than in any other European country. There are 13 Santa Clauses in Iceland, too!
There may not be a law requiring you to follow the customs, but there is no harm in doing so. Following them, you might be rewarded with a rich cultural experience and a more meaningful trip.
小題1: When you are invited to someone’s home in Iceland, you'd better do all of the following EXCEPT ______.
A.eating heartily and enjoying your time there
B.expressing your thanks to the host before you eat
C.taking some flowers or something else to the host
D.taking off shoes in the hallway before you enter the home
小題2:Which of the following is one of the differences in customs between Iceland and France?
A.Shaking hands when greeting.
B.A 26-day-long Christmas holiday.
C.Saying hello when meeting each other.
D.Kissing each other’s cheeks when greeting.
小題3:The text is mainly about ______.
A.what some of the customs in Iceland are like
B.why some of the customs in Iceland are special
C.how some of the customs in Iceland were formed
D.what some of the customs are like in Europe
小題4: In the text, the author aims to tell us that ______.

D.everyone has good and bad times in life

I want to make the most of every day. And, like most people, I've      that the best way to do it is (to) let go of past failures. But that's not all. One can never fully      today while thinking too much about past successes, either. People never      while resting comfortably on their laurels (榮譽(yù)). The      is that sometimes our successes hold us back more than our failures!
I once      a story about the Oscar owner, actor Clark Gable. A friend      Gable one afternoon at the actor's home. She brought along her      son, who was playing happily with toy cars on the floor. He      he was racing those cars around a great track, which in      was an imaginary circle around a golden statue. The small statue the boy played with was actually the Oscar Clark Gable      for his performance in the 1934 movie It Happened One Night.
When his mother told him the time had come to      , the little boy asked the actor, “Can I have this?”      to the Oscar.
“Sure,” he smiled. “It's yours.”
The horrified mother       . “Put that back immediately!”
Giving the child the golden statue, Clark Gable said, “Having the Oscar around doesn't mean anything to me;       it does.” The actor seemed to know that past success could be a       hammock (吊床) upon which he may be tempted to     , rather than a springboard setting him to begin a new start.
You may have learned to let go of past       and mistakes in order to free the present. But will you forget past successes and achievements in order to free the      ?Will your past be a springboard or a restful hammock?
“I like the       of the future better than the history of the past,” said Thomas Jefferson. I     . After all, the future, not the past, is where the rest of your life will be lived.

One day when I was driving on the freeway, I noticed all the way there were large dividing walls, which had been built between it and the road running parallel to it, for noise reduction (減少) and a sense of separation. The purpose was to create a sense of privacy (隱私) for people on the other side.
This got me thinking: How often do we put up mental barriers that keep us distant from others? Lifting the artificial barriers that keep us apart can offer opportunities to express our goodwill and create better relationships. If we can do like this, maybe our life will be a little different.
There is a little post office in a nearby town, and since it is closer to me than the post office in my own town, I go there. One day, with many people jammed into the little building, a man came hurrying in to mail a letter, and the girl at the counter saw he had too little postage on it. She told him he needed 2 more cents. Obviously he was a little at a loss. He had hurried over from his office, and didn’t have any money on him or time to stand in line. He was going to run back to get the needed money and wait in line again, but he hurried to get the letter mailed in the first place.
As we were watching him, one woman volunteered a two-cent stamp, and the whole line became very quiet. It was a beautiful moment. The man hesitated for a little while and asked her if she was sure, and she assured him she was fine with giving him the stamp. He offered to go back to his office to get the two cents, and she told him not to bother.
It was a small thing, but it meant something to both of the people involved, and to the rest of us. We aren’t a yard that needs defining or a freeway that needs barriers. We are human beings who can contribute to each other’s wellbeing by taking time to pay attention and interact. After all, we are all parts of a whole living in society.
小題1:The purpose of the first paragraph is to __________.
A.summarize the main idea
B.give detailed information
C.tell readers the author’s opinion
D.introduce the topic
小題2:What happened after the man being told he needed two more cents?
A.The man went back to his office immediately.
B.The man turned to a lady for help.
C.A woman offered a stamp to the man.
D.The man waited in line patiently.
小題3:What can we learn about the author?
A.She pays too much attention to privacy.
B.She believes people should participate in the world around them.
C.She confuses real barriers with false ones.
D.She insists all small things always have the greatest meaning.
小題4:Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Artificial BarriersB.Unnecessary Separation
C.An Unforgettable Experience D.The Kindness of People

In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel. In a few hours he would be flying to France to   36  a different life. It was a transitional(過渡的)time in Daniel's life. I wanted to    37  him some words of significance. But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the    38  time I had let such moments pass.
When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked   39  the steps of the bus and disappeared inside. The bus drove away and I said nothing. A decade later, a similar   40 played itself out. I drove him to college. As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to say to give him    41 and confidence as he started this new stage of life. Again, words 42  me.
Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those 43  opportunities. How many times have I let such moments   44 ? I don't find a quiet moment to tell him what they have  45  to me. Or what he might   46  to face in the years ahead. Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything.
What does it matter in the course of a lifetime if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him?    47  as I stood before Daniel, I knew that it did matter. My father and I loved each other. Yet, I always   48  never hearing him put his   49   into words. Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten. Why is it so   50  to tell a son something from the heart?
My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly. “Daniel,” I said, “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That's all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world    51 , and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn't understand what he was saying. All I was    52  of was the stubble(短須)on his chin as his face pressed   53  mine. What I had said to Daniel was   54 . It was nothing. And yet, it was  55 .

Which comes first, happiness or money? Are richer people happier? And if so, how do people get much richer? A recent study could tell you the answer.
The study looked into thousands of teenagers and found that those who felt better about life as young adults tended to have higher incomes by the time they turned 29. Those who were happiest earned an average of $8,000 more than those who were the most depressed.
The researchers, from University College London and the University of Warwick, say that very gloomy teens, no matter how tall or smart they were, earned 10% less than their peers, while the happier ones earned up to 30% more.
Happier teenagers have an easier time getting through school, college and a job interview, chiefly because they always feel better about life. It may also be true that happier people find it easier to make friends, who are often the key to homework help or networking.
A report in June suggested that professional respect was more important than dollars in terms of workplace happiness. In August scientists announced that they had found the gene for happiness in women, Alas (the same gene doesn’t appear to have the same effect on men). And in October researchers in the UK and in the US announced that people who eat seven portions of fruit and vegetables a day report being the happiest.
The big question is: if it really is true that happier kids end up being wealthier kids, is it necessary for parents to get their kids to do the homework? The fact is that no homework will make kids happy but surely hurt their grades. Studies do show, after all, that more education leads to better-paid jobs, which may give us a deep thought.
“These findings show that the teenagers’ happiness is important to their future success,” one of the report’s authors writes. “But what is the most important is that we should find a way to help children gain more satisfaction from doing schoolwork.”
小題1:What conclusion can the researchers draw from the recent study?
A.Happy teenagers grow up to be wealthier.
B.Money can make people become happier.
C.Wealth has nothing to do with happiness at all.
D.Schoolwork can help teens achieve success.
小題2:The main reason why happier people have more chances to succeed is that ________.
A.they are easy to communicate with others
B.they are good at doing their schoolwork
C.they are hopeful and optimistic about their life
D.they eat much more fruit and vegetables a day
小題3:The underlined word “gloomy” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.
A.upsetB.gloriousC.happyD.wealthy
小題4:What can be the best title for the text?
A.The way to educate kids.B.The source of happiness.
C.How to achieve your goal.D.The secret of being wealthier.
