答案
解析
36．A由下文第三段的 “I．．．to be in a good mood．”可知，答案为A项。
37．B由下文第二段的 “You can" t be positive all the time．How do you do it?”可知，Michael总是乐观的，并且总有积极的事情去说。
38．C由本段中的 “If an employee was having a bad day,．．．”可知，如果员工有不愉快的一天，Michael就告诉这个士兵如何去看待生活的积极的一面。
39．D由下文的 “．．．so one day I went up to Michael and asked him,．．．．You can" t be positive all the time．How do you do it?”可知，作者好奇，所以问出这样的问题。因此，答案为D项。
40．D get it “了解，懂得”；make it “及时到达，成功，约定时间”；从上下文来看，作者不明白。因此问了下面的问题, “You can" t be positive all the time．How do you do it?”
41．C由 “each morning”可知，醒来并自己告诉自己。因此，答案为C项。take up拿起，占去，接受； make up组成，编造； bring up教育，提及，呕吐。
42．B由下文的 “You can choose to be in a ．．．mood or be in a bad mood．”可知，是两个选择，因此，答案为B项。
43．A由下文的 “．．．or be in a bad mood．及to be in a good mood．”可知，此处选择A项。
44．B由上文的 “You can choose to be in a．．．”可知，此处答案为B项。
45．C由上文的 “Each time something bad happens,．．．．．or choose to learn from it．”可知，要么从坏事中学习，要么成为受害者。因此，答案为C项。
46．D考查短语react to．．．对……作出反应（评价，应答）；react by以…方式作出反应; react against反对; 反抗; react with与…起化学反应。从题中可以看出，是对情况作出反应，因此，选择D项。
47．C从句法分析，you live life主谓宾都有，因此，选择how，句意为：过怎样的生活是你的选择。
48．C由下文的 “．．．,falling off 60 feet from a communications tower．After l8 hours of surgery,．．．” 可知，Michael遇到了意外事故，因此，答案为C项。
49．B由本句知，在18个小时的手术后以及数周的intensive care重病特别护理后，他恢复了。因此，答案为B项。
50．A由下文的 “The first thing that went through my mind was the well being of my soon-to-born daughter,．．．”可知。go through穿过，经过；break through突围，突破；look through仔细检查；read through仔细阅读。
51．B由上文的知，Michael从60英尺高的信息塔上掉下来，因此，只能是躺在地上了。
52．C由文中的 “．．．remembered I had two choices: I could choose to live or．．．”知，与活相对应的应该是die死了。
53．D由上文的 “Michael lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also．．．”知，Michael活下来，由于他的医生们的技能，而且……，可知，另一个也是原因。所以，选择D项。so long as只要；in case of万一，如果； instead of代替，而不是。
54．C分析句子结构，that此处是引导宾语从句，在句中不做成分，只起引导作用。
55．A从全文来分析，以及让Michael从意外事故中活过来的原因 “his amazing attitude”可知，是态度决定一切。

举一反三
When India had not opened up its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans．Thankfully, we can get all these anywhere in India now．
Still, her answer surprised me: “Green tea．”
As long as I can remember she didn’t even drink Indian tea ．
I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and headed home to hear the story．My mother and her brother, both regular newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder drug for all illnesses．
At the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the average Indian．It was a strange country．
How things change! And how soon!
Now every town of any size seems to have a “China Market”．And everyone is talking about China．
The govemment of Indin has planned to send a team to China to see how things are done．A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment(投资)and such a step would “work wonders as it did for China”．
But it’s a two-way street．I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Bangalore to train in software．Meanwhile, all the Indian IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China．
No wonder that trade, which was only in the millions just ten years ago, is expected to hit about US $15 billion for last year and US $20 billion by 2008, a goal set by both governments．
No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this being the Sino-Indian(中印)century as the two countries started on January 1 the Sino-Indian Friendship Year．
But what is still a wonder to me is my mother drinking Chinese tea．

“Everything happens for the best,” my mother said whenever I 36 disappointment. “If you can carry on, one day something good will happen. And you"ll realize that it wouldn"t have happened if not for that 37 disappointment.”
Mother was right, as I discovered after graduating from college in 1932.I had decided to try out a job in radio, then work my way up to sports 38 . I hitchhiked to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station and got turned down every time.
In one studio, a kind lady told me that big stations couldn’t risk hiring inexperienced person. “Go out in the sticks and find a small station that’ll give you a 39 ,”she said.
I thumbed home to Dixon, Illinois. 40 there was no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local 41 to manage its sports department. Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I 42 . The job sounded just right for me. But I wasn’t hired.
My disappointment must have 43 . “Everything happens for the best,” Mom reminded me. Dad offered me the car to job hunt. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, a wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer.
As I left his office, my frustration 44 . I asked a1oud, “How can a fellow get to be a sport announcer if he can’t get a job in a radio station?”
I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur 45 . “What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football?” Then he stood me before a microphone and asked me to broadcast an 46 game.
On my way home, as I have many times since, I thought of my mother’s words. I often wonder what 47 my life might have taken if I’d gotten the job at Montgomery Wa

So you’re about to spend four years of your life and tens of thousands of dollars of your patent’s money, and all you really know about college is that all of your friends are going. Do you ever stop to wonder why you’re going?
Relax. You’re making the right decision. First of all, you’ll discover what interests you by taking courses in many subjects. For example, it’s hard to decide if you want to be a painter if you’ve never painted any picture; once you’re in a drawing-room on campus, you’ll know one way or the other. College is also a lot of fun — after you graduate, you’ll be working every weekday for 50 or so years. And remember that college graduates earn about twice the income of those who never attended college.
Finding the right college can be difficult. Fortunately, Johnson Review is here to help you every step of the way.
*Researching Schools. To us, the most important decision you’ll make is to choose the school that really fits you best — not the one that is the most competitive (有竞争力的) or has the best-equipped rooms.
*Applying to School. On JohnsonReview.com , you’ll find hundreds of actual college applications（申请）and links to many more .
*Raising Your Scores. American College Test is one of the most difficult parts of the admissions (录取) course . It’s nor the most important, though, and not everyone needs to prepare for the test. But, if you think you can do better, find the right course for better scores.
*Paying for School. Most families need financial aid for the high cost of college. The problem is that financial aid seems difficult to get and many families get caught up in the price of college rather than learning the ways to get financial aid . If you really do your research, you’ll learn that you can afford to attend any college, no matter the cost. For more information, call 600-3681 or visit JohnsonReview.com.

At first we tried to push on through. We didn’t want to move the children out of home, so we camped upstairs. we put a sheet of plastic across the floor to protect us from the damp. But after three months, we felt very sick, so we moved to a wooden house in a park. The house was small, but at first we were all just delighted to be in a new place. Unfortunately, things took longer than expected and we were there for 10 months. The life there was inconvenient. What surprised me most was how much I missed being part of a community（社区）.We had lived in a friendly village with good neighbours, and I’d never thought how much I’d miss that.
Although-our situation was very bad, it’s difficult to feel too sorry for yourself when you look at what’s happening elsewhere. I watched a news report about floods in Northern India and thought , “We didn’t have a straw hut（茅草房）that was swept away , and our house is still sanding . We’re lucky .”
We moved back home in August. With December coming, there’s reconstruction work to be done, so it’s difficult to prepare for Christmas. But I can’t wait — I’m going to throw a party for our friends in the village to say thanks for their support. This year , I won’t need any gifts — living away from home for months has made me realize how little we actually need or miss all our possessions . Although we are replacing things, there’s really no rush — we have our home back, and that’s the main thing.
小题1:What does the underlined word “amiss” in the first paragraph mean?
| A．Wrong. | B．Missing. | C．Right. | D．Found. |
| A．was sick of staying upstairs |
| B．cared much about her children |
| C．could not stand living a wooden house |
| D．did not deal well with her family affairs during the flood |
| A．Because her situation was not serious. |
| B．Because many other places were flooded. |
| C．Because she had been to Northern India. |
| D．Because some others suffered even more. |
| A．She valued human feelings more than before. |
| B．She realized she almost didn’t need possessions. |
| C．She found Christmas gifts no longer badly needed. |
| D．She thought her own home was the most important. |
Then there’s honesty in our actions. Are you honest at school, with your parents, and with your boss? If you’ve ever been dishonest, I think we all have, try being honest, and notice how whole it makes you feel. Remember, you can’t do wrong and feel right. This story by Jeff is a good example of that:
In my second year of study, there were three kids in my math class who didn’t do well. I was really good at it. I would charge them three dollars for each test that I helped them pass. I’d write on a little piece of paper all the right answers, and hand them off.
At first I felt like I was making money, kind of a nice job. I wasn’t thinking about how it could hurt all of us. After a while I realized I shouldn’t do that anymore, because I wasn’t really helping them. They weren’t learning anything, and it would only get harder down the road. Cheating certainly wasn’t helping me.
It takes courage to be honest when people all around you are getting away with cheating on tests, lying to their parents, and stealing at work. But, remember, every act of honesty is a deposit（储蓄）into your PBA and will build strength.
小题1:The underlined part “appear through smoke and mirrors” in the first paragraph means “ ”.
小题2:Which of the following can best explain Judy Garland’s words?
| A．Be your true self rather than follow others. |
| B．Don’t copy others or you can’t be the first class. |
| C．Make efforts to be the first instead of the second. |
| D．Don’t learn from others unless they’re excellent. |
| A．honesty can be of great help. |
| B．A bad thing can be turned into a good one. |
| C．Helping others cheat can do good to nobody. |
| D．One should realize the wrong in his bad deeds. |
| A．one must be brave to be honest |
| B．it’s difficult to be honest when others are not |
| C．one should be honest when making a deposit |
| D．honesty in one’s actions can help him in the future |
