Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (彈跳) back.
But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?
Don’t look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.
Don’t let other people set goal for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.
Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don’t be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly (緊緊地); the best way to keep love is to give it wings(翅膀).
Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.
Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is a treasure you can always carry easily.
Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift; that’s why we call it “the present”. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.
1. The underlined sentence “Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.” means that _______.
A. Nothing is possible
B. If we don’t give up, there is always hope

D. You should learn to give up
2.Why can’t we use time carelessly? ___________
A. Because time never returns.
B. Because times will get back.
C. Because we are too poor.
D. Because time is too expensive.
3. If you run through life so fast, you will ____________.
A. lose your own treasure that you can always carry easily
B. lose love by holding it too tightly
C. forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going

For Christmas last year, Marie’s grandma wanted to get her something special. So Marie asked her grandma for her dream gift: a brand-new pair of UGG boots. All her friends had them.
On Christmas morning, Marie really got a pair of boots. They fit perfectly. The quality was superb. There was only one thing missing: the tiny label (標(biāo)簽) on the heel that says UGG.
Marie thanked her grandma. But she’s only worn those boots twice — both times to visit her grandma. “I would never wear them in public,” she says.
Marie’s grandma would be heartbroken to know the truth. But at UGG headquarters (總部), a room full of sales managers would be cheering.
Through clever marketing and expensive advertising, the makers of UGGs have convinced (使信服) Marie — and millions of others — that the name UGG has value far beyond what the homely slipper boots should really cost. UGGs, like North Face jackets, Nike sneakers, and other brand-name items are “status symbols”. People pay double, triple, even 10 times more for brand names than for similar items. Is a pair of $400 True Religion jeans really better than the $18 Wranglers you can get at Walmart? Maybe the quality is a bit higher. Maybe they shrink less. But are brand names really worth the exorbitant prices? Some pricey brands do, in fact, use higher-quality materials that fit better and feel nice on your skin.
However, the truth is that the value of a brand has little to do with quality and a lot to do with status. A recent study by Consumer Reports found that some of the least expensive jeans are better made than the more expensive jeans. But that doesn’t matter. Wearing a certain label tells the world “I belong” or “I can afford it.”
A few decades ago, the idea of a kid refusing to wear a pair of boots because the label was wrong would have seemed as crazy as talking on a phone the size of your hand.
Clearly, times have changed.
1.When she received the Christmas gift from her grandma, Marie seemed .
A. excited B. worried C. moved D. disappointed
2.UGG’s managers would be cheering probably because of .
A. its particular design
B. its successful marketing
C. its high-quality products
D. its better customer service
3.The underlined word “exorbitant” in Paragraph 5 probably means .
A. high B. good C. average D. attractive
4.In the author’s opinion, people wear brand-name products as a way to .
A. follow the fashion
B. show themselves off
C. keep pace with the times
D. improve their quality of life

Kong Zi , also called Confucius (551-479 B.C) , and Socrates (469-399 B. C) lived only a hundred years apart , and during their lifetimes there was no contact between China and Greece, but it is interesting to look at how the world that each of these great philosophers came from shaped their ideas , and how these ideas in turn ,shaped their societies.
Neither philosopher lived in times of peace, though there were more wars in Greece than in China. The Chinese states were very large and feudal, while the Greek city-states were small and urban. The urban environment in which Socrates lived allowed him to be more radical than Confucius. Unlike Confucius, Socrates was not asked by rules how to govern effectively. Thus, Socrates was able to be more idealistic, focusing on issues like freedom, and knowledge for its own sake. Confucius, on the other hand, advised those in government service, and many of his students went out to government service.
Confucius suggested the Golden Rule as a principle for the conduct of life:” Do not do to others what you would not want others to do to you.” He assumed that all men were equal at birth, though some had more potential than others, and that it was knowledge that set men apart. Socrates focused on the individual, and thought that the greatest purpose of man was to seek wisdom. He believed that the superior class should rule the inferior(下層的)classes.
For Socrates, the family was of no importance, and the community of little concern. For Confucius, however, the family was the center of the society, with family relations considered much more important than political relations.
Both men are respected much more today than they were in their lifetimes.
1.Which of the following is TURE according to the first paragraph?
A. Socrates and Confucius had much in common,
B. Confucius had much influence on Socrates’ ideas.
C. The societies were influenced by the philosophers’ ideas.
D. There were cultural exchanges between China and Greece.
2.Socrates shared with Confucius the idea that .
A. all men were equal when they were born
B. the lower classed should be ruled by the upper class
C. the purpose of man was to seek freedom and wisdom
D. people should not ask others to do what they did not want to
3.What made some people different from others according to Confucius?
A. Family. B. Potential.
C. Knowledge. D. Community.
4.This passage is organized in the pattern of .
A. time and events B. comparison and contrast
C. cause and effect D. definition and classification

“Dutch” expressions heard in American English were first used in the 17th century. That was a time of fierce competition between England and Holland. At that time, the British used “Dutch” as a word for something bad, or false.
A Dutch agreement was one made between men who had drunk too much alcohol. Dutch leave was what a soldier took when he left his base without permission.
Some of these old expressions are still used today with a little different meaning. Long ago, a Dutch treat or to go Dutch was a dinner at which the invited guests were expected to pay for their own share of food and drink. Now, Dutch treat means that when friends go out to have fun, each person pays his own share.
Another common expression heard a few years ago was “In Dutch”. If someone told you that you were in Dutch, they meant that you were in trouble.
Some of the Dutch expressions heard in American English have nothing to do with the Dutch people at all. In the seventeen hundreds, Germans who moved to the United States often were called Dutch. During the American Civil War, supporters of the northern side in the central state of Missouri were called Dutch, because many of them were German settlers. President Theodore Roosevelt once noted that anything foreign and non-English was called Dutch.
1.If one of your friends collects 60 yuan from you to go to have a meal together, you can use “_____”.
A. Go Dutch B. A Dutch C. In Dutch D. Dutch leave
2.Why does the word “Dutch” often have a negative (not good) meaning in English?
A. Because in the 17th century, the Dutch were timid (膽小的)
B. Because in the 17th century, the Dutch often drank a lot of alcohol.
C. Because in the 17th century, the Dutch often fought with the British.
D. Because in the 17th century, the Dutch didn’t like to pay for others.
3.Which of the following statements is true?
A. The original meaning of “Dutch” refers to the people in the British.
B. “Dutch” sometimes means all that is non-English in American English.
C. The Dutch uncles are often very severe.
D. “Dutch” expressions in English didn’t come from the Dutch at all.
4.What’s the passage mainly about?
A. Telling us that “Dutch” is not a good word.
B. Showing that “Dutch” means differently between the British and the American
C. Telling us there was fierce competition between England and Holland.
D. Helping us enlarge the knowledge about the word “Dutch”.
