Our thoughts, words, and actions often cause harm to others and to us． Without reconciliation
（和解）, we cannot deepen our understanding and only cause more suffering． "Beginning Anew" is
a（n）   36  of reconciliation． It involves three steps ---- sharing appreciation, expressing  37 , and expressing hurt and difficulties．
In the first step, we share appreciation． We acknowledge the  38  qualities of the other person． The second step -- expressing regret, is to   39     with the other person our regrets for the things we have done or said that might have caused him or her  40 ． This requires humility （謙遜）, and the   41  to let go of our own pride． In the third step, we    42 our own hurt with mindful and loving  43  without blaming or criticizing． We speak in such a way that the other person can listen and  44  our words． If we  45  the other person, his heart will  46 and he will not be able to hear us． We ask the other person to help us to understand  47 he has spoken and acted as he has , causing us so much pain． Perhaps, later, he can share his feelings  48  we can understand him more deeply． If a strong  49   arises in us while we are expressing our suffering,  we should simply  50  and come back to our breathing until the emotion becomes   51 ． The other person can  52  us by following his breathing until we are ready to continue． We can enjoy practicing "Beginning Anew" with our partner, our family, or our friends  53 ． By doing this, we will    54   misunderstandings from accumulating． Rather, we will take care of them as they arise,  55  we take care of our children．

After 21 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner.   36  woman was my mother, who has been a widow for 19 years, but my work had made   37  impossible to visit her very often. That night I called to   38  her to go out for dinner.“What’s wrong? Are you   39 ?”she asked. “I thought that it would be   40  to spend some time with you. Just the two of us,”I answered. She thought about it   41  moment, and agreed.

We went to a restaurant that,   46  not elegant, was very nice and cozy. When I read the menu, Mom sat there   47  at me. A nostalgic(懷舊的)smile was   48  her lips. During the dinner, we had a(an)   49  conversation—nothing special but catching up on(了解)recent events of each other’s life.
A few days   50 , my mother died of a heart attack. It happened so suddenly that I didn’t have a chance to do   51  for her. Sometime later, I received an envelope with a note   52 “You will never know what that night meant to me. I’m looking forward to the   53  dinner. I love you, Son.”
At that moment, I understood the importance of saying in time“I LOVE YOU”. Nothing in life is more important than your   54 . Give them the time they deserve, because these things cannot be   55  till“some other time”.

Impossible cases are not forever. While it is impossible for one person, it is possible for another. In a word, everything is possible.
Someone says, "Success belongs to those who can look at the complex challenges offered by the world as inspiration." So your challenges are golden opportunities for success. How can there be miracles if there are no obstacles? How will you chase the storm if there is no storm? You need challenges to reveal your ability. Success doesn’t come out’ of nothing; success comes from the problems you face. Those who refuse to give in
come out smiling.
Robert X. Perez says, "The seeds of success spring from failure’s ashes. "Failure is not defeat; it is the pointer to do better than what you just did. You have to know that you are in a constant study of life. What you face is for your training. Samuel Aidoo says, "Each failure is simply another chapter in the story of our lives. To fail is to understand what not to do. Remember it and don’t give up until your goal is achieved."
What do you do when you face difficulty? Yeah, life is difficult, but you do not give up.
Have a positive and calm outlook on your circumstances (狀況) and make the best of them. You may learn something new. You can develop mental toughness. Mental toughness means to be able to see the long-term gains rather than be put off by short-term pains. Once you have this toughness, you have the winning edge(優(yōu)勢).
The only things in life you ever really regret are the chances you didn’t take. You will regret when you see the consequences of not seizing the opportunities when they arose. Take chances every day!
小題1: The main point of the passage is that_________.
A．success comes out of nothing
B．never give up and you may achieve success
C．everything is easy to deal with
D．impossible things do not exist
小題2: According to the author, success often comes to people who_________.
A．have good opportunitiesB．face failure
C．don’t fear difficultiesD．have a lot of luck

A．We can perform miracles by overcoming difficulty.
B．We will become greater after overcoming difficulty.
C．Most of us can’t show our ability because of difficulty.
D．Everyone will fail far numerous times because of difficulty.
小題4: From Paragraph 3 we can learn that_________.
A．a(chǎn)ll people can achieve success if they keep learning
B．failure means great success to everyone in the future
C．most people end up with failure because it often happens
D．failure can help people to achieve success if they don’t give up
小題5:By saying "How will you chase the storm if there’s no storm?" the writer means_______.
A．it’s not necessary to reveal your ability if you are successful
B．we should try our best to find challenges in order to be successful
C．we should not be afraid of challenges because they are opportunities for success

I moved into a new house in July. Since then I have met a few of my neighbors who are very nice people. For Christmas, I thought I would do something nice for each of the neighbors I know. There were nine neighbors whom I knew by name or spoke with often when I was out in my yard. I knew which houses they lived in.
I decided to add one more to my list. This lady I decided to add lives down the street from me. I meet her every morning walking to work as I drive down the street. She always smiles to me. But I had no idea who she was and which house she lived in.
I planned to make small fruit baskets and leave them on my neighbor's front porches (門廊) on Christmas Eve. I signed the cards: “Happy Holidays from 5104 Northumberland Road.”
I saved the last for the friendly lady. I finally decided on a house where I met her each morning and guessed that it was hers.
My neighbors really appreciated the baskets and would tell me as they saw me in the yard or they would call, and a couple even came by to thank me.
This morning I found a small note in the mailbox. It was addressed simply: Resident, 5104 Northumberland Road.
The Thank You card really caught me by surprise. I opened it and read the message, “Thank you for the lovely fruit basket you left on our porch. It was very thoughtful. Richard Kelly passed away last week. He talked a lot about how nice it was that someone remembered him in his time of illness. He really appreciated it.”
I had no idea who Richard Kelly was and that he had been seriously ill. I had left that nice lady’s basket on his porch by mistake. I wanted to say sorry, but that would be wrong. I believe that Mr. Kelly was meant to have that basket because he was dying. I hate that the nice lady did not get to receive a fruit basket on Christmas, but I believe if she knew what had happened, she would be happy. I feel pleased to have helped Richard Kelly's last days be more cheerful.
小題1:How many Christmas gifts did the author intend to send?
A．9.B．8C．10D．11
小題2:Where did the friendly lady live?
A．She lived at the end of Northumberland Road.
B．Her address was 5104 Northumberland Road.
C．She was thought to share a house with Mr. Kelly.
D．The author was not sure about her address at all.
小題3:How did the author’s neighbors respond to his gifts?
A．They liked the gifts very much and were thankful.
B．They were thankful that they wanted to be friends.
C．They all made phone calls to say “Thank You”.
D．They all visited him by person to show gratitude.
小題4:What does the author mean in the last paragraph?
A．He was regretful that the nice lady didn’t receive his gift.
B．He was glad to have made Mr. Kelly's life more pleasant.
C．He thought Richard Kelly deserved to receive that basket.
D．The old lady was happy to sacrifice to make Kelly happy.

How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and the old wishing they were young again! Each age has its pleasure and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each agc gives him without wasting any time in uselcss regrets.
Children is a time when there are few duties to make life hard. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after, and loved whatever he may do. It’s impossible for him to be given so much again in his life without having to do anything in return. Besides, life is always giving new things to the child. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain, or in the snow. His first visit to the seaside makes him wild. But a child has his pains; he is not so free to do as he wishes. He is continually being told not to do this, not to do that, or being punished for what he has done wrong. His life is therefore not perfectly happy.
When the young man starts to make his own living, he becomes free from the rules of school and parents; but at the time he is forced to accept duties. He can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the law of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison, lf, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble, and has good health, he can have the great happiness of seeing himself make steady pro-gress in his job and of building up his own position in society.
Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be, but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy. With old age should come wisdom and tile ability to help others with advice wisely given. They can have the joy of seeing their Children making progress in life; they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them and, perhaps, best of all, they can, if their life has been a useful one, feel the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time when they can lie back and rest, leaving others to continue the fight.
小題1:The main reason children wish they were grown up, and the old wish they were young again is that ______.
A．both aren’t satisfied with the weak points at their ages
B．both enjoy the strong points at the other age by looking back or looking forward
C．the human beings should be like this
D．they don’t think both ages are acceptable
小題2:“Enjoy what each age gives him without wasting time in useless regrets” means ______. 
A．Enjoy what is given to him by people at his age, feeling regrets
B．Enjoy himself at his own age, feeling regrets for a waste of time
C．Make full use of the time he is given at his age instead of regretting having no achievements
D．Enjoy his own age and took down on the people at other ages
小題3:“Children is a time when there are few duties to make life hard” means “______”. 
A．Children shouldn’t be made to live a hard life
B．All the children won’t have to work for their own living
C．Children shouldn’t answer for the hard life they are leading
D．A child bas few duties to try hard to make a living for himself or for his seniors
小題4: According to the passage, what is a child’s greatest dissatisfaction? 
A．He thinks he has not got the equal freedom as his seniors.
B．He thinks he knows less about things than the older do.
C．He thinks it easy for him to do something wrong.
D．He thinks the society doesn’t believe in him.
