When it comes to success in business and success in life, there are few qualities as important as confidence．
People naturally have different levels of confidence. Some have a higher level of confidence than others do, but even those whose confidence is lacking can learn to build their level of confidence and reach their most important goals．Increasing self confidence is one of the most common reasons people give for seeking the help of psychologists and other professionals．
One of the many places where a greater level of confidence is useful is in the workplace. We all know how difficult it can be, for instance, to ask the boss for a raise. This process can be extremely difficult for those who lack confidence in their own abilities. After all, if you are unsure about your own abilities, how will you ever convince your boss that you deserve more money for the work you do?
Even if you are not asking for that big raise, having plenty of confidence in your abilities is important to success．If you are certain of your abilities, chances are that those around you, whether they are your coworkers, your colleagues or your superiors, will see that confidence, and that will help to assure them that you are the best at what you do．
Being thought of as the person to go to, and being seen as an expert in your chosen field, is naturally very important to success on the job．If you can make yourself the person people go to for guidance and advice, you will help to protect yourself from the ever present danger of downsizing(裁員)．After all, if you are a recognized expert at the office, you will be regarded as an indispensable member of the team．
Having a high level of confidence, after all, does not mean overlooking the places where you could improve．Knowing what you do well and where you need help will help you enjoy increased success and confidence．
小題1:What is the passage mainly about?
A．The influence of confidence on one's life.
B．The difference of people's confidence.
C．The importance of confidence to success.
D．The judgment on one's confidence.
小題2:Psychologists and other professionals can offer help to those ________.
A．who dream to be recognized experts
B．who expect to give guidance to others
C．who want to ask the boss for a raise
D．who think their goals are hard to reach
小題3:What does the underlined word "indispensable" in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A．outgoing B．a(chǎn)ttractiveC．importantD．energetic
小題4:What message does the author want to convey（傳遞） in the last paragraph?
A．To overlook one's disadvantages.
B．To make full use of one's advantages.
C．To have great confidence in one's abilities.
D．To make objective evaluations of one's abilities.

During the years when I was a teacher, I learned a lot of things. Perhaps the most important one was the life-changing  16 of encouraging words.  
I 17 what Leo Buscaglia had done with his students in University of Southern California. In one class Leo Buscaglia and his students had made two lists of 18 , one positive and one negative. Then they  19 the negative words in the trash and tried to use only the  20 words for one month. They were  21 at how much better their lives became just by using words full of  22  .
I decided to try this as well by  23 something good to write on each paper my students  24 . No matter how many mistakes a student’s paper  25 , there was always a  26 sentence, beautiful thought, or a great idea that I could  27 on. I remember glancing over my desk and  28  some of the students reading those encouraging words  29  . It was a joy seeing their eyes shine a little brighter, their  30  sit up a little straighter, and their learning climb a lot  31 .
I recently saw one of my  32  students and we talked for a while. He has got married, and has two children now. As I was saying goodbye, he said, “You know I  33  have a few of those old papers. I look at them from time to time. I just  34  my kids have a good teacher like you.” I was amazed at the  35  those few positive words had on his life.
May your own life be forever full of encouraging words in your ears, from your lips and in your heart.

When an NBA player is young he thinks he can win the championship by himself. It is only later when he has aged and been through many battles that he learns an important lesson: there is no “I ” in “team”.
There is no better example of the value of teamwork than the Boston Celtics. Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett were all superstars on three different teams. Yet, none of them had any titles to show for it. Then, last season, they decided to sacrifice money and individual statistics to play together. Garnett and Allen joined Pierce on the Celtics and changed the NBA in the process.
It started in simple ways. Garnett and Allen are two of the most intense athletes in the world. They treat every second of every practice like it is the NBA championship. If you want to play alongside them then you will have to do the same. So, the young guys on the Celtics started giving their full effort too.  
Pierce had been the star of the Celtics for many years. He used to shoot the ball many times a game. But with the addition of Allen and Garnett he shot less and focused on defense. His selflessness showed the young players that doing what made the team better was the only thing that mattered.  
When the Celtics were winning and the game was almost over, Garnett, Pierce and Allen would come out of the game. But they wouldn’t just sit on the bench. Instead, they stood and cheered and screamed for their teammates. They wanted to support their friends and teammates.
Now, the guys who don't play know they can still affect the game by cheering so they scream and cheer when Garnett, Allen and Pierce are playing. The Celtics have developed a strong relationship. They are more than just teammates. They are brothers. 
The result: the Boston Celtics won the championship and are considered the favorites to win the Eastern Conference championship again this year.  
There is a saying that goes, "A successful team beats with one heart." If that is the case, the Celtics may have the biggest heart in the NBA. 
小題1:What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．The stories of three famous basketball superstars.
B．A famous basketball team named the Boston Celtics.
C．The importance of teamwork among teammates.
D．Matches between the Boston Celtics and other teams.
小題2:What does this sentence “there is no ‘I’ in ‘team’.” mean in Paragraph 1?
A．"I" will be missing once "I" am on the court.
B．The cooperation of the teammates is more important than the individual.
C．"I" work so hard in a team that "I" will forget who "I" am
D．Surrounded by other players, "I" don’t seem to exist.
小題3:Which of the following is NOT true about Pierce’s recent performance?
A．He became an even better shooter with others’ help.
B．He focused much more attention on defense.
C．He created more chances for teammates.
D．He stood and cheered for his teammates
小題4:Which of the following didn’t contribute to the success of the Boston Celtics?
A．The whole team has become devoted to each and every stage of the game.
B．The cooperation and teamwork among the teammates in the match.
C．The influence of Garnett, Allen, Pierce and other teammates’ cheering.
D．The increasing frequency of team players on the bench

In Japan, people will often go out to restaurants to treat guests. The reason for this is that Japanese homes are small. If you go out to eat with your workmates, it is a custom to share the bill equally, no matter how much you eat or drink yourself.
Japanese people use chopsticks to eat. But if you eat out, you can ask for a fork or a knife. These words have been adopted(采用) from the English language into Japanese. So if you say “fork” or “knife” to a waiter, he will probably understand you. If you eat in an expensive restaurant, waiters will usually place a hot towel on your table at the end of your meal. You can wipe your face and hands with this towel.
In Japan, you can see some people slurp (出聲地吃) their noodles. It is considered rude in Western restaurants, but is acceptable in Japan. Western people usually blow on hot noodles first and then eat them, while Japanese do the cooling down gesture (姿勢) when they actually eat. Many feel noodles do not taste good if they are cooled with the air. It is also normal to lift the noodle or soup bowl to mouth so that food doesn’t spill.
Eating with chopsticks requires proper manners. Never leave your chopsticks standing upright, especially not on rice. It is a symbol of death, and people will find this impolite if you are not at a funeral (葬禮). Never wave your chopsticks around, nor use them to move dishes around. If you are eating from a common bowl, use the back end of the chopsticks that you have not put in your mouth to dish the food out.
小題1:Japanese people often treat their guests in restaurants because_____.
A．they need to share the bill equally
B．it is a traditional custom in Japan
C．dishes in restaurants are delicious
D．their homes can’t hold many people

A．A hot towel is not offered in most ordinary restaurants in Japan.
B．You are asked to wipe your hands after a meal in a Japanese restaurant.
C．The Japanese always wait until the noodles become cool.
D．It is impolite to lift your bowl to your mouth in Japan.
小題3:Which of the following is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A．How to use chopsticks in Japan.
B．When to use chopsticks in Japan.
C．The Japanese like using chopsticks.
D．Chopsticks are the symbol of Japan.

Kasey Kaczmarek: When I read “Would my dad love me?” by Martha, I related to how Martha felt about her father. I always wondered if my dad cared about me, or if he even loved me. All the kids would be with their dads and they would ask me where my dad was, and I would tell them that he was out of town. For all you kids who have a dad, tell him how much you love him because there are plenty of kids who would love to have a dad.
Armen Abidian: This article describes everything about me and my life. When I was about 3 years old, my mother and father had a big argument and got divorced.

Emma Ramirez: When Martha talked about how “most girls have dads who take them to their practices, buy them things and play with them”, I thought I was one of those girls.

After reading what Martha wrote, I told myself I would always appreciate the days I spend with my dad because I am very lucky to have a dad who does so much for me.

I'd been travelling for long hours on a lonely country road when I had a flat tire. So I had to stop and get the tools to  36 the problem. It certainly wasn’t  37 doing this with a white shirt and suit on.

Then, without  44 , it began to rain. He suggested that I wait in his car because my car was unsafe. As the rain increased, getting us wet within seconds, I  45 agreed. When I settle into the back seat, a woman’s voice came from the front seat. “Are you all right?” She turned around to me. “Yes, I am.’’ I replied with much  46  when seeing an old woman there.

To my  47 , the old woman was a neighbor of the man who was helping me. “Jeff insisted on stopping when he saw you  48 with the tire. ”“I am grateful for his help, ” I said. “Me, too!” she said with a smile.

The rain stopped and Jeff and I changed me tire. I tried to offer him money and of course he  50 it. It was shameful that I judged people by the way they  51 . As we shook hands I began to apologize for my  52 . He said, ‘‘I experience that same  53 often. People who look like me don’t do nice things. I  54 thought about changing the way.
