I suddenly heard an elephant crying as though frightened. Looking down,I immediately recognized that something was wrong,and ran down to the edge of the near bank. There I saw Ma Shwe with her three­month­old calf struggling in the fast-rising water,and it was a life­and­death struggle.

While I was wondering what I could do next,I heard the sound of a mother"s love. Ma Shwe had crossed the river and got up the bank and was making her way back as fast as she could,roaring (吼叫) all the time,but to her calf it was music.

阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从36-55各题所给的四个选项A、B、C和D中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Years ago, I worked at the Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus. One day, as I was passing the elephants, I suddenly stopped,        by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. It was        that they could, at any time, break free,       strangely enough, they didn’t. I asked a trainer the       for this.
He said, “When they were very young we used the       size rope, and it was enough to hold them. As they grow up, they believe the rope can       hold them, so they never try.”
Like the elephants, how many of you believe you cannot do a thing, simply because you       once before? Do you often tell       “I cannot dance” or “I’m not good at math”?
These are       of self limiting beliefs. You must realize you’re       for them. A limiting belief that says you’re poor at math may have       as a reaction to the embarrassing experiences related to math, or the remarks made by someone important to you which       you. The cool thing is that because you create the       you can choose to change it! Here is how:
First,       it with “I am good at math”. Once you change your      , your subconsciousness will make this      by driving you to act. That might be to take a math course or to go online       help, etc. Gradually you’ll really see your math skills are      .
This is such a simple process that you can       it today. Don’t be like the poor elephant and make your life       at a place because of a limiting belief you developed years ago.

This parable(寓言)is told of a farmer who owned an old mule(骡子). The mule fell into the farmer’s well. The farmer heard the mule praying for whatever mules do when they fall into wells. After carefully assessing(评估)the situation, the farmer sympathized(同情)with the mule, but decided that neither the mule nor the well was worth the trouble of saving. Instead, he called his neighbors together , told them what had happened, and asked them to help pour dirt to bury the old mule in the well and put him out his misery.
At the beginning, the old mule was crazy! But as the farmer and his neighbors continued shovelling and the dirt hit his back, a thought struck him. It suddenly dawned on him that every time a shovel load of dirt landed on his back, he would shake it off and step up!
This he did, blow after blow. “Shake it off and step up… shake it off and step up… shake it off and step up!” He repeated to encourage himself. No matter how painful the blows, or how distressing the situation seemed, the old mule fought panic and just kept right on shaking it off and stepping up!
It wasn’t long before the old mule, battered and exhausted, stepped triumphantly(胜利地)over the wall of that well! What seemed like it would bury him actually helped him… all because of the manner in which he handled his adversity(逆境).
That’s life! If we face our problems and respond to them positively, and refuse to give in to panic, bitterness, or self-pity.
The adversities that come along to bury us usually have within them the very real potential to benefit us! Never be afraid to try something new. Remember that amateurs(生手)built the boat. Professionals built the Titanic.
小题1:Why did the farmer decide to bury the mule in the well?
A.Because he thought the mule was of little use.
B.Because he didn’t like the praying made by the mule.
C.Because he thought the well couldn’t be used any longer after the accident.
D.Because he didn’t want to see the mule suffer more in the well.
小题2:What does the underlined sentence in the second paragraph mean?
A.The mule became calmB.The mule became quiet.
C.The mule suddenly had an ideaD.The mule lost heart.
小题3:Who saved the mule at last?
A.The farmerB.The farmer’s neighbors
C.The farmer and his neighborsD.The mule himself
小题4:What lesson can we learn from the passage?
a. One should give up something of little use.
b. One should depend oneself when in trouble.
c. One should show mercy to others who are in trouble.
d. There must be something that one can do well no matter what he is.
e. Be self-determined and never give up, and one can succeed in the end.
A.a, b, eB.b, d, eC.a, c, eD.b, c, e

On a freezing-cold February morning in Indiana, Jhaqueil Reagan,18, left home to walk to a job interview—ten miles away, over snow-covered roads.
Reagan had been looking for work for months. His mother had died two years earlier, and he was the only caretaker of his younger brother, Cole, 16, and sister, Jazzlyn, seven. He was desperate for a regular salary after cutting lawns(草坪) and doing other temporaryjobs.
Three hours into his hard trip, Reagan had covered only three miles. He paused outside a Cajun restaurant called Papa Roux to ask for directions from owner Art Bouvier, who was clearing ice and snow from the parking lot. “I told him to get on the bus,” says Bouvier. “He thanked me and went on his way.”
Fifteen minutes later, Bouvier pulled up in his car beside Reagan as he walked along. “You’ve really got to be on the bus,” he told Reagan. “I don’t have money for the bus,” Reagan replied. Bouvier offered him a lift. On the way, he asked the boy about his job search.
“I thought, This is the kind of kid I want working for me,” says Bouvier. He got the teen’s phone number and dropped him off for his interview.
Later that day, Bouvier wrote about Reagan on Facebook. “He doesn’t know it yet, but he starts on Monday,” Bouvier wrote. “It’s been a while since I’ve met someone so young with a work ethic(伦理) like that!” A few hours later, Bouvier called to offer Reagan a job. Shocked, the teen accepted on the spot. A television reporter caught wind of the story and interviewed the pair on camera that night.
Today, Reagan is washing dishes, filling orders, and greeting Papa Roux customers for $8.50 an hour. The publicity(宣传) has brought in so many new customers that Bouvier plans to open a second restaurant by the end of the year.
小题1:Why did Jhaqueil Reagan have to find a job ?
A.Because he had to make enough money to support his family.
B.Because his parents had died two years earlier.
C.Because he wanted to change his job.
D.Because he was desperate for a good job.
小题2:Which of the following can be used to replace the underlined part in the sixth paragraph ?
A.reportedB.deliveredC.heardD.told
小题3:Which of the following words best describes Bouvier?
A.honestB.warm-heartedC.modestD.independent
小题4:What’s the best title of the passage ?
A.A Young Man Who Had an InterviewB.A Young Man Who Found a Job
C.A Boss Who Offered a JobD.A Boss Who Took a Chance
