阅读理解。         Childhood was an illusion(错觉)  and the illusion was this:everything was bigger. No, I
ruean everything, not just houses and shops and grown-ups, but colors and flowers and joumeys,
especially journeys which  seemed endless. "Are we there yet, Daddy?"
        Funfairs(游乐场)  were huge things that spread for miles around you with noise and lights
and exciting  danger. Rainy days at home when you were ill seemed  to last for ever. Being a
grown-up yourself was an un- thinkable distant possibility. Every sound was louder, every
game was grander, every pain was unbearable.

shocks. Days go  by unnoticed. How can I regain childhood when it was  an illusion?
        I have only one repeatable and wonderful way and even in this way I can regain only part
of that larger  world.l can play upon the stage like a child and make  the crowd laugh with them,
sonletimes helplessly like a child, and then, even though I"m a sixty-one-year-old man, I can almost
catch the colors and sounds and  stillness of those bigger years when I was little.1. How does the author feel about his childhood?       A. It was endless.
B. It was unpleasant.

    I learned how to accept life as it is from my father. 1 , he did not teach me acceptance when he was
strong and healthy, but rather when he was   2   and ill.
   My father was 3 a strong man who loved being active, but a terrible illness 4 all that away. Now he
can no longer walk, and he must sit quietly in a chair all day. Even talking is   5   . One night, I went to
visit him with my sisters. We started   6   about life, and I told them about one of my    7  . I said that we

Stop wasting your time thinking of reasons for your failures and shortcomings. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow. The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You can be a success if only you make the right choice. You cannot be successful without first developing your self esteem(自尊). Your level of self-esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-esteem do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are leaves tossed(摇摆) by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather. You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for whatever happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident while successful people realize that they are responsible. Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify the cause,we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we consciously choose to accept and believe. Thoughts and beliefs cause everything. Our attitudes and actions are a result of habits ingrained in us over a period of time. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success depends upon our level of confidence. We are responsible for either reinforcing (强化) good habits or kicking bad habits and consciously replacing them with consistently practiced good habits. If you associate with positive-thinking people ,you are definitely going to achieve success. On the contrary, the opposite happens. We are responsible for finding , planting , and nurturing (培育) the seeds that contain future victory , born from setbacks. In short,in all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this , accept it, and firmly believe it,you are on the road to success.
1. People with low self-esteem are compared to leaves because they_________.
A. are ready to change their minds B. are easily affected by windy weather C. don"t have the power to face their fate D. can"t exercise control over themselves
2. Losers would think that____________.
A. success is the result of hard work B. working hard will lead to success C. their failure is only because of bad luck D. they don"t make efforts to succeed
3. It can be inferred from Paragraph 5 that____________.
A. whether we will succeed depends on our attitudes B. developing confidence is the key to future success C. thoughts and beliefs are the result of creative mind D. setting our expectations is essential before taking action
4. The last paragraph serves as ___________.
A. the proof of the author"s points B. the conclusion of the argument C. an introduction to another topic D. a comparison between two views
5. Which is the best title for the text?________.
A. Success is a choice B. The secrets of success C. Develop our confidence D. How to achieve success

As the United States continues to argue over the future of the illegal immigrants traveling across its borders ,I went on a joumey to discover what hardships people crossing the border from Tijuana, Mexico must face. I worked at a soup kitchen, where I came into contact with many poor citizens who had recently arrived in Tijuana. One of the people I served was a Guatemalan named Juan , who washed cars for low pay in the US. After we spoke for 10 minutes,Juan introduced me to his girlfriend,a local stripper who offered to give me a free lap dance if I ever decided to visit the club across the street. I certainly didn"t need to respond to this. I also visited a shelter for the recently deported and those who have recently arrived in Tijuana from other Mexican states. Tijuana is home to more than l.5 million people and is populated by many migrants who arrive and leave mostly for reasons of unemployment. Having dinner at the shelter,l talked with those who planned to stay the night. Seated at my table was a man in his 40s. He had recently been deported from Los Angeles for not having the proper legal documentation. The only belongings he carried with him were a few clothes and an album filled with pictures of his wife and three daughters in Los Angeles. I was surprised by how open he was in sharing his story. I feel bad for not learning his name before I left. Returning to my country on the final day of my trip awakened a strange feeling inside me. I went on this trip with an open mind and heart and was given the chance to communicate with so many different people that I wouldn"t have met in my everyday life. I felt guilty for taking so many things for granted, while people a few hundred miles away are already satisfied with the simpler things that they have.
