Barbara and Roland attended every football game where Su and I were being cheerleaders. I could tell, for the Beaches there was no between Su and me; I was their daughter, too.

When Su and I college they kept my room the same for the entire four years I attended school. Recently, Barb presented me with an insurance policy they bought when I first moved in with them and had continued to pay on for 23 years.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

●Does failure really exist ?

If you believe you have failed, then you have. If you believe you don’t have the ability to succeed, then you don’t. 1. The moment you decide to give up or stop working toward your goals, failure is born.

● 2.

Most people give themselves an out without even realizing it. They are willing to work hard on reaching their goals, but only until the going gets too rough or their energy dies down. Don’t do that! 3. Never quit, never admit failure, and never lose heart.

●Don’t believe in a clear finish line for goals.

It’s a good idea to set a general timeline, but remember that something will be beyond your control. 4. If you lock yourself into a given timeline, you might make yourself feel like a failure! Instead, get a general idea of when you’d like your goal to be completed. Then take it one day at a time and focus on making progress instead of reaching the finish line in as little time as possible.

●Be sure that you don’t see difficulties as failures.

Difficulties mean only one thing: it’s not time for your goal to be completed yet. That’s it! It doesn’t mean you failed; it doesn’t mean you’re weak; it doesn’t mean you’ll never achieve your goals. 5. You’ve got to keep moving forward and find a way over, around, or through the difficulties.

A. Never give up on yourself.

B. Failure only exists in your own mind!

C. That’s exactly how failure makes us feel.

D. It simply means you have not done enough yet.

E. You can never say exactly when your goal will be reached.

F. Instead, make up your mind to make your goal happen, no matter what!

G. Work hard towards your goal, and you will be likely to get good results.

E

Energy independence． It has a nice ring to it． Doesn't it？ If you think so， you're not alone，because energy independence has been the dream of American president for decades， and never more so than in the past few years， when the most recent oil price shock has been partly responsible for kicking off the great recession（經(jīng)濟衰退）．

"Energy independence"and its rhetorical（修辭的） companion"energy security"are， however，slippery concepts that are rarely though through． What is it we want independence from， exactly？

Most people would probably say that they want to be independent from imported oil．But there are reasons that we buy all that old from elsewhere．

The first reason is that we need it to keep our economy running． Yes， there is a trickle（涓涓細(xì)流）of biofuel（生物燃料）available， and more may become available， but most biofuels cause economic waste and environmental destruction．

Second， Americans have basically decided that they don't really want to produce all their own oil． They value the environmental quality they preserve over their oil imports from abroad． Vast areas of the United States are off-limits to oil exploration and production in the name of environmental protection． To what extent are Americans really willing to endure the environmental impacts of domestic energy production in order to cut back imports？

Third， there are benefits to trade． It allows for economic efficiency， and when we buy things from places that have lower production costs than we do， we benefit． And although you don't read about this much， the United States is also a large exporter of oil products， selling about 2 million barrels of petroleum products per day to about 90 countries．

There is no question that the United States imports a great deal of energy and， in fact， relies on that steady flow to maintain ite economy． When that flow is interrupted， we feel the pain in short supplies and higher prices． At the same time， we derive massive economic benefits when we buy the most affordable energy on the world market and when we engage in energy trade around the world．

1.From the passage， we know that biofuels ．

A．keep America's economy running healthily

B．prove to be a good alternative to petroleum

C．do not provide a sustainable energy supply

D．cause serious damage to the environment

2.Why does America rely heavily on oil imports？

A．Its own oil production falls short of demand．

B．Its own oil reserves are quickly running out．

C．It wants to keep Its own environment undamaged．

D．It wants to expand its storage of crude oil．

3.What can we conclude from the last paragraph？

A．America doesn't have enough oil supplies．

B．People can benefit more from importing oil．

C．Energy independence is significant for Americans．

D．Short of energy may cause economic depression．

4.What is the author's purpose in writing the passage？

A．To justify America's dependence on oil imports．

B．To stress the importance of energy conservation．

C．To arouse Americans' awareness of the energy crisis．

D．To explain the increase of international oil trade．
