believes in a positive future. Both believe in something that has not yet happened. So I ask you, if
neither the positive nor negative future has happened yet then why not choose to believe in the positive
future?
I believe during these challenging times we have a choice between two roads: the positive road
and the negative road. And our bus can"t be on two roads at the same time. So we have to make a
choice and this choice determines our belief about the future and the attitude and actions we bring
to the present.
I"m not saying we shouldn"t have any fear. There are times when fear is a gift. A healthy dose(剂量)
of fear causes us to examine our situation and plan for the future. It moves us to smell the cheese and
expect change. When used wisely it allows us to manage risk and make better decisions. Some fear
is good.
However, what I have observed lately is a supersized, huge dose of fear that is spreading the
hearts and minds of far too many people. This oversized fear is causing leaders and their organizations
to either act unreasonably or to not act at all. They are either hurrying in a million different directions
because of fear. In both cases, fear is leading them to take the negative road to failure.
The answer is the positive road paved (铺满) with faith and a belief that your best days are not
behind you but ahead of you. With this belief you make the right choices and actions today that will
create your positive future tomorrow. You stay calm, focused and committed to your purpose. You
look for ways to save money and cut costs without making unreasonable fear-based decisions that
sacrifice your future success. You identify opportunities in the midst of the challenges and you focus
on solutions instead of problems.
Your faith and belief in a positive future leads to powerful actions today. The future has not
happened yet and you have a say in what it looks like by the way you think and act. Fear or Faith.
The choice is yours.
B. both Fear and Faith trust something in the future
C. neither negative nor positive future will happen
D. people usually choose to believe in the positive future
B. We should choose the positive road
C. We must choose either a positive or negative road
D. Our belief about the future depends on our choice
B. Reasonable fear helps to plan for future.
C. Fear can bring cheese and risk to people.
D. Leaders usually have oversized fear.
B. be committed to saving money
C. stay away from any challenges
D. take powerful actions today
B. Life is full of fear and faith.
C. We should have faith in a positive future.
D. Wrong decisions sacrifice our future success.

are opposite and seem to be unreasonable but they can be explained as follows: the first refers to all
good friends who drive us towards good while the second all bad ones who lead us to wrong ways.
My ideal(理想的) friend is of course a good friend whose goodness is shown below-he has no
bad likings, such as smoking and drinking. He lives in frugality(节俭). He studies hard so as not to
waste his golden time. At home he honors his parents and loves his brothers; at school he respects
his teachers and shares feelings of his classmates. He treats those truly who are true to him. In a word,
he has all the good characters better than mine. I can follow him as a model. With his help I am free
from all difficulties,
Indeed, if I have such a person as my friend, I shall never fear difficulty and I shall never know the
existence of the word "failure".

Sometimes two things are to be done at the same time, both worth you 9 .You can only take up one of them, the other has to wait or be 10 up. But you know the future is unpredictable (不可预料) - the
changed situation may not allow you to do what is left 11 . Thus you are 12 in a difficult position and
feel sad. How 13 that nice chances and brilliant ideas should gather around all at once? It may happen

In fact that is what 15 is like, we are often 16 with the two opposite sides of a thing which are both desirable like a newspaper cutting.

you need to know and understand me. During the past nine years that we have been in America, I have
grown greatly, changed from that wide-eyed and scared little girl to a proud and brave young woman.
The change wasn"t always smooth, and I wasn"t always patient, but you were both always understanding.
And through your understanding I have learned.
I have learned from you. Dad, you wake up every morning to go to the steel plant, where people don"t
speak your language and you don"t speak theirs. I know that if you were in Vietnam, you would be
comfortably surrounded by friends. But you are here in America, doing what you don"t like, and through
that, you are teaching your children the power of persistence.
I have learned from you, Mom, you cook nice Vietnamese sour soup and fish, wait up at nights for
your daughters. When I see you pacing back and forth because your daughters aren"t home yet, I cry
because I see so much pain in your eyes, and through your pain I learn the meaning of home a sanctuary
that I will always be able to turn to.
Through all your sacrifices I learn the essence of being human. I learn to love. I find that this love leads
me to you, to the home, to the fact that I am Vietnamese-American. The dreams that you have taught me
slowly begin to take shape as I walk down the college path, step into the adult world and adventure out
of your world. Wherever I go, I carry my past with me, knowing that you will always be there behind me
and I will always come back, because you are where my home is.

of day.This is so __1__ that there seems to be no need to ask the reason for it. Yet no one __2__
understands why flowers open and close like this at particular times. The process is not as __3__
as we might think,as recent experiments have shown. In one study, flowers were kept in constant
__4__. We might expect that the flowers, without any information about the time of day, did not
open as they __5_ do. As a matter of fact, they __6__ to open at their usual time. This suggests
that they have some mysterious(神秘的) way of knowing the __7__. Their sense of time does not
__8__information from the outside world; it is, so to speak, inside them, a kind of "inner clock".
This __9__ may not seem to be very important. However, it was later found that not just plants
but also __10__ , including man, have this "inner clock" which __11__ the working of their bodies
and influences their activities. Men, then, are also influenced by this mysterious __12__. Whether
we wish it or not, it affects such things in our life as our need for sleep, our need for food.
In the past, this did not really __13__ because people lived in natural condition. In the __14__
world, things are different; now there are spacemen, airplane pilots and, in ordinary life, a lot of
people who have to work at night. It would be very __15_ , then, to know more about the "inner
clock". Such things as flowers might help us understand more about ourselves.
