The teacher stood before his class of 30 students and was going to hand out the final exam papers.“I know how hard you have all worked to get ready for this test.” he said.“And because I know you are all able to understand these questions.I am ready to offer a B to anyone who would prefer not to take the test.’’
A number of students jumped up to thank the teacher and left the classroom.The teacher looked at the rest students and said.“Does anyone else want to get a B? This is your last chance.”Two more students decided to go.Seven students stayed.The teacher then handed out the papers.There were only three sentences on the paper: Congratulations! You have received an A in this class.Keep believing in yourself.
I never had a teacher who gave a test like that.but I think that it is a test that any teacher could and should give.Students who do not have confidence in what they have learned are B students at most.
The same is true for students in real life.The A students are those who believe in what they are doing because they have learned from both successes and failures.They have learned life’ s lessons, whether from school education or from events in their lives,and have become better people.Scientists say that by the age of eight,80% of what we believe about ourselves has already been formed.You are a big kid now and you realize that you have some limits(局限).However,there is nothing you can’t do or leant to be.Sir Edmund Hillary, the first person to reach the top of Mount Qomolangma (珠穆朗玛峰)said,“We do not conquer the mountain.but ourselves.”

What’s the red star in the sky through a telescope(望远镜)? It is Mars. Do you want to know more about it? Take the “Mars Orbit Express”!
“Mars Orbit Express” is a space probe (探测器). It was sent towards Mars by American scientists on August 12th,2005. Its tasks are to study Mars’ atmosphere and return photos to Earth. But before that “Mars Orbit Express” must travel about 100 hundred million kilometers and seven months. It reached Mars’ orbit(轨道)in March,2006.
Mars and Earth have similar weight and size. However,Mars is closer to the sun than Earth. Mars is very cold. The average temperature is below 50℃. The temperature at noon only reaches 20℃ during a Mars day. Its atmosphere is mostly CO2. It has much sand and two moons---Phobos and Deimos.
Scientists think Earth and Mars had similar beginnings 4.6 billion years ago. But while Earth supports millions of lives,Mars becomes bad. “Earth easily could have turned out like that.” said an scientist, “It is important for us to find out why and Mars Orbit Express’ should do that.” “Mars Orbit Express” also would help scientists to learn what might happen to Earth in the future.  “Mars Orbit Express” would work for about four years.

Smoking in indoor public places including public working places, public transport vehicles and some other special outdoor working places has been banned(禁止)in China since January 2011.Let’s look at the following advantages of banning smoking.
First, banning smoking will not only help in saving smokers from health problems and diseases, but will also be good for passive(被动)smokers. When the smoker is smoking in a restaurant, the people around him are sure to breathe in the smoke and suffer from the diseases an active smoker gets. If smoking is banned, spread of these diseases can be controlled.
Next, banning smoking will put stress on smokers to give up.  Since a smoker is prevented from smoking, he will learn how to live without smoking for long hours. When a smoker doesn’t smell or see anybody around him smoking, it might reduce his wish to smoke too. As a result, people have to give up smoking.
Smoking in public places influences non-smokers to start smoking, especially adolescents. When teens see people around them smoking, they will follow them easily. Thus the number of teen smokers will increase. Also asthma(哮喘)and other problems are often seen in children living around smokers. So if it is banned, these places will become safe for children and teenagers.
Looking from the economic point of view, smoking should be banned to increase work productivity(生产率).Employees(雇员)who smoke usually take breaks to smoke while working. So the number of  hours they put in their work is smaller.
If you see from the environment point of view, smoking should be banned. Smoking causes air pollution. If it is banned, it will help keep the environment from getting worse.
小题1:________doesn’t belong to a non-smoking place.
A.A fieldB.A hospitalC.A libraryD.A restaurant
小题2:The second paragraph mainly wants to tell us ______.
A.banning smoking is good for restaurants
B.banning smoking is good for non-smokers
C.banning smoking is good for spread of diseases
D.banning smoking is good for active smokers and passive smokers
小题3:How many advantages of banning smoking are mentioned in this passage?
A.Two.B.Four.C.Five.D.Six.
小题4:According to the text, the underlined word “adolescents” means ______.
A.menB.womenC.adultsD.teenagers
小题5:Which of the following statements in NOT true?
A.If smoking is banned, work productivity will increase.
B.If smoking is banned, the number of teen smokers will be larger.
C.If smoking is banned, it will make the environment become better.
D.If smoking is banned, smokers will learn how to live without smoking.
