Gordon Williams’s hobby may seem strange to people when they meet it for the first time. But it is a traditional craft (手艺). He builds model ships inside old bottles.
Gordon has always loved ships, especially sailing ships from the old days. His interest in this hobby began many years ago when he visited a museum in Ottawa, Canada, where there was a show of model ships in bottles. Gordon thought the show was wonderful. But he wondered how the craftsman got the ship through the thin neck of the bottle. Gordon decided to find it out.
He found an old master craftsman who was willing to teach him the necessary skills. First, Gordon takes an old bottle. Then he puts in a layer of putty (一层油灰), carefully shaped and painted it look like the sea. Next, he builds the ship. To get the ship through the neck of the bottle, Gordon holds down the masts (桅杆). Once the ship is inside the bottle, he takes a long, thin tool to raise the masts.
Gordon has completed well over one hundred models. His wish is to build bigger model ships, such as aircraft carriers. This will be more challenging (挑战的), as he will have to build the ship actually inside the bottle. His hobby certainly needs time, patience and a steady hand.
54．What do people think of Gordon’s hobby when people first meet it
A．Unusual. B．Useful. C．Interesting. D．Traditional.
55．For Gordon, the most difficult step that he wanted to learn was ________.

As a small kid, what did you want to be when you grew up Like most of the children, you may let your imagination run wild. Maybe you dreamed(梦想) of flying into space or being a famous writer. Then perhaps over the years, your dreams became more realistic. Or you might have given up all your dreams.
It’s important to have a dream because dreams can give us the energy to succeed in life. Dreams can inspire(激励) us. The great thing about dreams is that there’s no pressure to finish them at once. They might take a few years or they might take a lifetime to reach. The important thing is that you’re always working for your dream. And the best way to do that is by setting goals(目标).
What is the difference between a dream and a goal It’s said that dreams are the final destination(目的); goals are the small stops along the way. Dreams can be very general. But the steps you take to reach them should be very clear. Your dreams mean what you want, but goals tell how you’ll get there. That makes goal setting a necessary step in reaching your dreams.
Many successful people have spoken about dreams. Former US Secretary of State Colin Powell stressed the importance of working for your dreams. “A dream doesn’t become reality through magic; it takes determination and hard work.” Writer Les Brown told us that dreams have no age limit, “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.”
If you’ve been dreaming about doing something for years, start today. Write down your dream, and set your goals. Then you’ll be on your way to making your dreams come true.
58.To reach your dream, what is the most important
A. To work for the dream. B. To make a great plan.
C. To raise pressure. D. To dream a goal.
59. The underlined word “pressure” means “ ”.
A. 困难 B. 压力 C. 自信 D. 成功
60. What’s the main purpose of Paragraph 4
A. To tell people you are never too old to set another goal.
B. To tell people a dream doesn’t become reality through magic.
C. To show the importance of working for your dreams.
D. To show some successful people’s ideas about dreams.
61. According to the article, which of the following is NOT true
A. Dreams are the small stops along your lifeway.
B. You may take a lifetime to reach your dream.
C. It’s never too old to learn.
D. You can set some goals to reach your dream.
D
IS SUCCESS ABOUT LEARNING---OR SHOWING YOU'RE SMART
Benjamin once said, "I don’t divide （分） the world into the weak and the strong, or the successes and the failures. I divide the world into the learners and non learners."
What would make someone a non learner Everyone is born with an intense drive （驱动力）to
learn. Babies practise their skills daily, even the most difficult tasks of a lifetime, like learning to walk and talk. They never think it’s too hard. Babies don't worry about making mistakes. They walk, they fall and they get up. They just move forward.
What could put an end to this kind of learning The fixed mindset （固定的思维模式）. As soon as children become able to evaluate （评价） themselves, some of them become afraid of hard tasks. They become afraid of not being smart. I have studied thousands of students, and you can’t believe how many people refuse a chance to learn.
We offered four-year-old a choice （选择）: They could redo an easy task or they could try a harder one. Even at this age, children with the fixed mindset---stuck with the safe one. Children with the growth mindset---the ones who believed you could get smarter by learning---thought it was a strange choice. Why are you asking me this Why would anyone want to keep doing the same task over and over They chose one hard one after another."I’m dying to solve them!"one little girl said.
So children with the fixed mindset want to make sure they are successful. Smart people should always be successful. But for children with the growth mindset, success is about practising themselves.
It’s about learning to become smarter.
One seventh-grade girl made a conclusion. "I think being smart is something you have to work for...it isn't just given to you…. Most kids, if they’re not sure of an answer, will not raise their hand to answer the question. But what I usually do is to raise my hand, because if I’m wrong, then my mistake will be corrected. Just by doing that I’m improving my ability."
62. What does the writer want to tell by using the example of babies in Paragraph 2
A. Walking and talking are very difficult. B. It's easy for babies to learn different skills.
C. People are born with abilities to learn. D. Babies need to face many tasks every day.
63. Which of the following is a fixed mindset according to the passage
A. Being happy with his own growth. B. Working hard and being thirsty to learn.
C. Avoiding showing how smart he is. D. Being afraid of facing different failures.
64. What does the girl mean by saying "I’m dying to solve them!"
A. She can’t wait to give herself a task to practise.
B. She thinks a healthy body can help learn better.
C. She believes it’s painful to solve the problems.
D. She doesn’t find it difficult to finish these tasks.
65. What’s the main purpose of the passage
A. Be a good learner in babyhood. B. Stay active when facing difficulties.
C. Show the importance of success. D. Make decisions and choices carefully.

请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
We all have two ears but only one mouth. Maybe our body wants to tell us that we should listen more and speak less.
66 When a person gets sad and complains (抱怨) a lot, what we should do is to listen quietly before he gets calm (冷静地). After that, we may sit down and have a good talk with him. 67
Secondly, listening is a kind of love. Sometimes, we may think our parents are always talking too much. 68 If we listen carefully and patiently (有耐心地) , our parents will feel we love them. 69
Lastly, listening is polite (有礼貌的) . Once I shouted at my classmate when I found my new pen in his pencil-box. Before he could speak, I was angry with him right away and said he was a thief (小偷). He was even angrier and shouted back at me and said that was his own pen. He bought it by himself yesterday. 70 So, to show respect (尊重) for others, let’s listen to them first.
We should learn to listen with our ears, eyes and hearts, and try to make ourselves good listeners from now on.
A．And later, I found my pen in my schoolbag!
B．They usually start to do this when they are ten years old.
C．Listening is often more important than words.
D．It’s best to talk about something nice and hopeful.
E．Firstly, listening is helpful.
F．However, they do so because they are worried about our health or study.
G．We should learn to keep silent.

What does taking the train mean to you Perhaps it's just a way of getting to your destination. In fact, the train itself can be part of the fun.
On March 28th, China's first panda-themed tourist train left Chengdu in Sichuan for Zunyi in Guizhou. It soon became the talk of China with its special design and comfortable service.
Its inside and outside are decorated with giant panda pictures, Attendants（乘务员) carry panda toys and passengers can try panda-shaped food and Sichuan snacks. Some people call it a mobile star hotel because it has a bar, karaoke room, dance hall, and mahjong room.
This luxury（高档的) service is one aspect that has attracted travellers. But train travel interests
people for other reasons.
In the fast-paced times we live in, train travel is a good way to slow down. It gives you time and space to read, sleep, chat with friends, or simply do nothing but watch the changing scenery outside.

Sheng met a Russian student and they became friends. "I also met a cute boy who gave me melon seeds. Though we didn't understand each other's language, it made me feel nice.”
