It is a cold and dry winter morning. When you wake up, you feel that your throat hurts. You begin to sneeze and later you may cough. You must have a cold! Wait a moment. Could it just be a common cold or the flu (流感) that’s been going around?
A cold gives you a runny nose and cough. But it’s usually easy to deal with. Some take medicine while others drink herbal tea or chicken soup. Usually you feel better after a week.
On the other hand, the flu can be much more dangerous. It usually gives you fever. Sometimes it can cause death. According to an American magazine, the worst flu killed about 50 million people from 1918 to 1919.
Don’t worry. If you get a flu vaccine (疫苗), it can stop you from getting the virus (病毒). Flu vaccines work by giving the body a small amount of flu viruses. This causes your body to develop antibodies (抗體). So next time you get the flu, the antibodies should help you.
The flu virus changes every few years. Therefore, there are so many types of flu, such as H1N1 and H5N1. The antibodies for one type of flu can’t help us against all types of flu. That’s why we need to get the vaccine every year.
However, good health habits may also help stop you developing a cold or flu. Washing your hands often helps stop you from getting viruses. It is also important to get regular exercise and eat healthy food. All these can help you strengthen your immune system (增強(qiáng)免疫系統(tǒng)).
小題1:If you have a common cold, usually you’ll feel better after ________.
A．a(chǎn) weekB．two weeks
C．ten daysD．twenty days
小題2:According to the passage, which is TRUE of the flu?
A．It first happened in 1919.
B．It usually doesn’t give you fever.
C．It is easy to deal with.
D．It can kill people sometimes.
小題3:If you get a flu vaccine, ________.
A．it can’t stop you from getting the flu virus
B．it won’t cause your body to develop antibodies
C．your body will develop antibodies
D．your body will get a large amount of flu viruses
小題4:We need to get a flu vaccine every year because ________.
A．we probably have a cold in winter
B．the flu virus changes every few years
C．the flu is very dangerous
D．you don’t need to take any medicine after that
小題5:The following ways can help stop the flu EXCEPT ________.
A．staying indoorsB．getting regular exercise

Meng Meihui,14,from Dongying, Shandong, loved reading certain pieces of work. But she paid particular attention to her classmate’s every composition, just to find her faults.
“Everyone said she was better at writing than me. I didn’t believe it. I wanted to beat her,”Meng said. Meng was caught by the green-eyed monster-jealousy(嫉妒)
Jealousy is _____among students. Most people may feel a little bit unhappy when others are better than them. It’s natural. However, if students don’t change theirs mindset(思維方式)and deal with it well, jealousy can bring out many problems.

How can we improve our life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They’ll say, “this is my destiny (命運(yùn)). I cannot change it.”
Certainly not! You don’t have to suffer too much. Your destiny depends on yourself, not on any other factors.
I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows. Huh! Is this what she calls “doing her best”? She believes she has tried her best. But in fact she hasn’t.
Remember that you get what you pay. You just don’t sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don’t expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don’t just regard it as a little failure, but use it as feedback (反饋). Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It’s not enough to think positively (積極地), you also have to act positively.
If someone’s life is in the trouble, do you just hope that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don’t just stand (or sit) there, do something to improve your life.
小題1:The writer’s attitude towards destiny is that ________.
A．we can change itB．we can’t depend on ourselves
C．we must accept itD．we have to suffer it
小題2:According to the passage, what should you do if something goes wrong?
A．Regard it as a little failure.B．Get your hands off your phone.
C．Sit around and wait for luck.D．Do something to solve the problem.
小題3:The underlined word “turn out” in the passage means ________.
A．翻轉(zhuǎn)B．關(guān)閉
C．變得D．清空
小題4:From the passage, we know ________.
A．we only need to hope for the best in our life.
B．we can get what we pay if we think positively.
C．the woman has tried her best to improve her life.
D．maybe our luck will change if we do something about the life
小題5:What would be the best title for this passage?
A．Understand YourselfB．Improve Your Life
C．Believe in YourselfD．Accept Your Life

One afternoon I toured an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. I was looking forward to a quiet view (觀察) of the art works.
A young couple viewing the paintings ahead of me chatted non-stop between themselves. I watched them a moment and decided the wife was doing all the talk. I admired the husband’s patience for putting up with her continuous talk. Distracted by their noise, I moved on.
I met with them several times as I moved through the different rooms of art. Each time I heard her constant burst of words, I moved away quickly.
I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop making a purchase when the couple came near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. He extended it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the coatroom to get his wife’s jacket.
“He’s a brave man.” The clerk at the counter said, “Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age. During his recovery he made a promise that his life wouldn’t change. So, as before, he and his wife come in whenever there’s a new art show.”
“But what does he get out of the art?” I asked, “He can’t see.”
“Can’t see? You’re wrong. He sees a lot. More than you or I do.” The clerk said, “His wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head.”
I learned something about patience, courage and love that day. I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight and the courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life. And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away hand in hand.
根據(jù)材料內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案，并將其標(biāo)號填涂在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置。
