2．"Luck is a matter of preparation meeting opportunity，"said the American talk show host Oprah Winfrey．I've never watched her show，but when a self-made billionaire gives life advice it's probably worth listening to．
Her point is that blind luck is very rare．You may have to be lucky to find a good job these days but that does not mean you should sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you．If you're a Chinese，you may already be familiar with the tale of a farmer waiting by a tree stump （樹(shù)樁） for a rabbit to run out and break its neck．
A book by the UK psychologist Richard Wiseman，called The Luck Factor，argues we can all make ourselves luckier．It's not about going to a temple to burn some incense （香） in hopes that the gods will give you good fortune； it's practical advice you can follow each day．
Wiseman conducted an experiment as part of his studies．First he divided volunteers into two groups：those who said they were lucky in life and those who said they were not．He gave everyone a newspaper and asked them to look through it to count how many photographs it had inside．On average，the unlucky people took about two minutes to count the photographs while the lucky people took just seconds．Why？On the second page of the newspaper，a command，"Stop counting．There are 43 photographs in this newspaper，"was written in big letters．The unlucky people mostly did not spot the message．
It's easy to compare this situation to a young person looking for jobs in a local paper．They might search so hard for one type of position that they miss an even better opportunity．People who are"lucky"，in fact，keep an open mind and don't go through the same routine every day．
I first came to China in 2002 when it was considered a rather strange thing to do．Like many foreigners，my plan was to teach English for one year．Seven years later，and still here，I've had many great opportunities such as writing for newspapers and magazines．I did not dream these would have been possible．I've also never been sick，had an accident，got into a fight or had problems with the police．Coincidence？After reading about Professor Wiseman's studies I think not．
As Wiseman advises，I usually trust my own judgment．Your friends and parents may give you advice based on rational thinking，but it's important to consider how you feel about each choice you make．Your feeling acts as a warning for a potential problem．
Finally，try to turn bad luck into good．Even if you do fall down and break a leg，the time spent at home can be used wisely to study English．
 
57．Which of the following proverbs most agrees with the writer's point？A
A．Make the best of a bad job．
B．Rome was not built in a day．
C．All is not gold that glitters．
D．A good heart conquers ill fortune．
58．What do you know about Oprah Winfrey？D
A．She became famous through her family background．
B．She was very lucky and seldom suffered setbacks in her life．
C．She is a British talk show host．
D．She became successful by her own effort．
59．The writer quoted the Chinese tale of a farmer in order to showC．
A．luck is in your own hand       
B．bad luck can turn into good
C．you should not sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you
D．man can conquer nature
60．From the experiment，Wiseman drew the conclusion thatC．
A．lucky people are quick-minded            B．unlucky people are slow to read
C．lucky people often have an open mind     D．unlucky people are more creative．

17．When University of California-Berkeley released a study this month showing alarmingly high teacher turnover （人員流動(dòng)） rates at Los Angeles charter （特許） schools，I wasn‘t surprised．
That's not shocking news at local charter schools．It‘s just that the study reminded me of something I'd observed many times，starting with my niece．
Bright and cheerful，my niece longed to teach high-needs children．She started out in the San Francisco public schools，where she was assigned to the district‘s toughest elementary school．Fifth-graders threw chairs across the room-and at her．Parents refused to show up for conferences．
She wasn't willing to deal with this level of indifference and teacher abuse，so she switched to a highly regarded charter elementary school in the Bay Area where she poured her energy into her job and it showed．Her students‘test scores were as high as those in a nearby wealthy school district，despite the obstacles these children faced．
By her fourth year，however，my niece was worn out，running out of the energy it took to work with a classroom of sweet but deeply needy children who begged to stay in her classroom when it was time to leave．The principal‘s offer of a $10，000raise couldn‘t stop her from giving notice．She went to work at that wealthy school district next door-for less money．
Over the years，I've met many teachers who have a passion for their work at charter schools，only to call them the next year and find they‘ve left．The authors of the Berkeley study hold the belief that the teachers leave because of the extraordinary demands：long hours，intense involvement in students complicated lives，continual searches for new ways to raise scores．Even the strongest supporters of the reform movement acknowledge that raising achievement among disadvantaged students is the most challenging task．
It‘s unlikely that we can build large-scale school reform on a platform of continual new demands on teachers-more time，more energy，more devotion，more responsibility-even if schools find ways to pay them better．
This is the bigger challenge facing schools．We need a more useful answer to the Berkeley study than-Yeah，its really hard work．

50．Why wasn‘t the author surprised at the problem？C
A．She had been informed of the problem by her niece．
B．She had participated in the Berkeley study．
C．She had noticed the phenomenon repeatedly．
D．She had been warned of the problem by the media．
51．What can we learn about the students in the public school the author‘s niece taught？B
A．They were clever and cheerful．
B．They were not disciplined．
C．They were indifferent to each other．
D．They were forced to learn by their parents．
52．The author‘s niece left the charter elementary school in the Bay Area becauseC．
A．her hard work and devotion didn‘t pay off
B．her work was not well received by the children
C．the demanding work made her exhausted
D．the mean principle offered her a low salary
53．Which of the following is probably the most difficult for teachers？A
A．Raising disadvantaged students‘scores．
B．Frequent involvement in students‘lives．
C．Indifference from students‘parents．
D．Long working time and much energy．
54．What is the author's comment on the current school reform movement？B
A．It will have a positive impact on education．
B．It tends to be unsuccessful．
C．It will make teachers more motivated．
D．It demands more fund to meet the challenge．

10．A beautiful girl fell into a city moat （護(hù)城河） as a result of a careless step．She was swept by the currents （水流） to a broken fence of a bridge arch （拱門(mén)） in the moat，which caught her dress and stopped her for a short time．As the currents were rapid and the water surface is two or three meters below the ground，it would be hard to rescue her and even harder for the rescuer to climb up to safety．None of the passers-by dared to run the risk．
Eventually a young man dived into the moat，attempting her rescue．As a good swimmer，he soon reached the girl and dragged her to the bridge pier （橋墩）．The accident attracted a large crowd，and not only came a group of firemen trying to help but also a lot of reporters．One of the latter asked the young man，"What made you run the risk in such rapid currents？"
The young man turned to the girl and gave a loud answer，"It was her beauty．"The answer caused a general smile among the on-lookers．"Didn't you have any idea of the danger you would come across？"asked the reporter again．"Why，"said the young man，"She's so charming that it would be a great pity if she had been swept away by the rapid currents．"This time all burst out laughing．
Later that evening，the TV news ran an item about the rescue．They showed the scene of the rescue itself，the saved girl full of gratitude and people's praise for her heroic rescuer．But the young man's interesting answers were missing，not to be heard．

72．Why dare not passers-by save the girl？C
A．The currents were always rapid．
B．The river was too deep．
C．They w ere afraid of taking the risk．
D．They needed a witness．
73．When the beautiful girlA，the young man gave her a hand．
A．was stuck near a fence
B．cried out for help
C．burned herself out in the river
D．was swept down the river
74．From the text，we knowC didn't show up on the scene．
A．TV reporters   B．firefighters   C．doctors   D．some ordinary persons
75．What can we learn from the passage？B
A．A young man accidentally saved a girl falling into a moat．
B．There exist honesty and beauty as well as kindness．
C．Passers-by laughed at the young man's answer without hesitation．
D．News reporters covered the whole incident that evening．

4．When international aid is given，steps must be taken to ensure （確保）that the aid reaches the people for whom it is intended．The way to achieve this may not be simple．It is very difficult for a nation to give help directly to people in another nation．The United Nations Organiztion（UNO） could undertake to direct the distribution of aid．Here however rises the problem of costs．Also tied with this is time．Perhaps the UNO could set up a body of devoted men and women is every country who can speedily distribute aid to victims of floods and earthquakes．
  More than the help that one nation can give to another during a disaster，it would be more effective to give other forms of help during normal times．A common proverb says，"Give me a fish and I eat for day，teach me to fish and I eat for a lifetime．"If we follow this wise saying，it would be right to teach people from less developed nations to take care of themselves．For example，a country could share its technology with another．This could be in simple areas like agriculture or in more complex areas like medical and health care or even in building satellites．Even small country is able to help less developed nations．Sometimes what is take for granted，like the setting up of a water purification plant or the administration of a school，could be useful for countries which are looking about to solve common problems．It does not cost much to share such simple things．Exchange students could be attached for a number of months or years and learn the required craft while on the site．They can then take their knowledge back to their homelands and if necessary come back form time to time to clear doubts or to update themselves．Such aid will be truly helpful and there is no chance of it being temporary or of it falling into the wrong hands．
  Many countries run extensive courses in all sorts of skills．It will not cost much to include deserving foreigners in these courses．Besides giving effective help to the countries concerned，there is also the build-up of friendships to consider．Giving direct help by giving materials may be effective in the short run and must continue to be given in the event of emergencies．However，in the long run what is really effective would be the sharing of knowledge．

61．According to the author，how could international aid reach the victims in time？C．
A．By solving the cost problems
B．By solving the transportation problems
C．By setting up a body of devoted people in every country．
D．By relying on the direct distribution of the UNO．
62．What does the author try to express in the underlined sentence？C．
A．Providing food is vital
B．Learning to fish is helpful
C．Teaching skills is essential
D．Looking after others is important．
63．The second paragraph is developed mainlyA．
A．by example B．by process C．by comparison D．by contrast
64．Which aid is likely to fall into the wrong hands？D．
A．A medical team．    B．An exchange program．
C．A water plant．     D．Financial support．
65．What can we infer about international aid from the passage？A．
A．It is facing difficulties．
B．It is unnecessary during normal times
C．It should be given in the form of materials
D．It has gained support developed countries．
