The dream changed. First I went through a silent forest. Then I was alone in a small boat, which was floating along, past tree-covered islands. The boat was carrying me between grassy banks with colorful dots here and there. The water was so clear that some soft clouds in bright sky could be seen in it. The current must have been strong, for the boat kept moving forward quickly, as though

it were being pushed by some unseen hand.

At last the boat came to a place with a narrow stretch of silver sand. An old man was standing, his hand shading his eyes. As the boat ran around, he came up to me, held out his hand, and greeted me politely.

“You have reached me at last. Would you follow me, please?”

I kept still for a moment and was wondering what would happen next. The old man noticed my doubt and smiled at me kindly.

“You need not be afraid,” he said. “You are deeply respected by us all. Everything has been prepared for you. Now please come with me to the place chosen for you.*'

I dared not refuse him,but for reasons I cannot explain, I wouldn’t touch his hand out stretched to help me as I stepped out of the boat. We made our way towards a low flight of steps, which led to a beautiful palace, where I expected something dangerous was hidden.

科目:初中英語 來源:成都市2017屆九年級二診英語試卷 題型:閱讀單選

In one way of thinking, failure is a part of life. In another way, failure may be a way towards success. The “spider story” is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider spinning a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock. He tried six times without success. On the seventh time he made it and went on to spin his web. Bruce is said to have taken heart and to have gone on to defeat the English... Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one.

So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were you in top from yourself? What can you change so things will go right next time?

Second, is the goal you’re trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about this question, “If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?” This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn’t be doing anyway.

The third thing to bear in mind about failure is that it’s a part of life. Learn to “l(fā)ive with yourself” even though you may have failed. Remember, “You can’t win them all.”

1.The “spider story” mentioned in the passage is used to show that _________.

A. only failure can lead you to success

B. we can make it if we keep trying

C. failure is always terrible

D. people who fail have the same experience

2.The underlined phrase “bear in mind” in the last paragraph means _________.

A. take care B. forget C. recognize D. remember

3.The writer tells us to do all the things when dealing with failure except ________.

A. thinking about how it happened

B. believing that we can’t live happily if we fail

C. considering failure as a part of life

D. checking out whether our goals are right for the present situation

4.The main idea of this passage is _________.

A. what the value of failure is

B. that Edison and Bruce failed repeatedly before success

C. what failure is and how to deal with failure

D. failure may be considered as a way towards success

1.B 2.D 3.B 4.C 【解析】在我們的生活中,我們不可能事事、時時都能成功,每個人都會經(jīng)歷失敗。那么面對失敗我們應怎么做?短文中作者給了我們一些建議。 1.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段的內(nèi)容可知,這一段中作者給我們講述了“蜘蛛的故事”,蘇格蘭的領袖Robert Bruce受到了蜘蛛堅持不懈努力攀爬的啟發(fā),重新獲得信心,打敗了英格蘭人。我們可以知道,作者講這個故...
