There was a farmer who       corn （玉米） all his life. Each year he took his corn to the market. Then each time his corn was chosen as the       and won the first prize.
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something        about how he grew it. The farmer      his seed（做種子的) corn to his neighbors.
"How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?" the reporter asked.  "You know they are taking part in the       with you each year. "
"Why, sir," said the farmer, "didn't you know? The      picks up pollen {花粉)from the corn and moves it quickly from field to field. If nay neighbors grow       corn, cross-pollination (異花傳粉) will affect the quality of my corn. So if I want to grow good corn, f must       my neighbors to grow good corn. "
The farmer knows much about the connection of life. His corn cannot improve      his neighbor's corn improves.
As a great man says, "We make a living by what we       ; we make a life by what we give." We can't      without food, clothes, and many other things. However, a meaningf~I1 life is not decided by how much we can get,       by how much we can give others. Giving, instead of taking, makes us         from other animals.  So those who choose to live well must help others to live well and those who choose to be happy must help others to find       in their life.

Have you ever complained（抱怨）why life is so tiring? Are your studies sometimes not successful? Well, friends, cheer up and smile all the time . If you see the world with your warm heart, you will find that the whole world smiles to you.
While in school, sometimes you are tired of your lessons, but have you ever noticed the happy smile on your teacher’s face when you did a good job?
One day it is fine . Just before you want to go out, it suddenly starts to rain . Maybe you would feel very sad and start complaining about the weather . But dear friends, why don’t you sit down and listen to the free concert that the nature offers you? And with the timely rain, crops in the fields will grow better and better and farmers will have a good harvest .
Although everyone wants to succeed in what he tries to do, sometimes failure can’t be avoided . I think failure(失敗) is not terrible, and the terrible thing is that we are afraid of it and give up hope. When we face failure, we must be confident in ourselves, draw a useful lesson from it and try our best to finish what we have decided to do. As a popular saying goes, “Failure is the mother of success.”
Attitude（態(tài)度）decides everything. With an optimistic（樂觀的）attitude life is easy and pleasant. Let’s smile to whatever we meet and the whole world will smile to us.

People are always afraid of making mistakes. But sometimes it’s not bad to make mistakes, and here is why.
At first , mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. It’s always good to new things, because when you are trying new things your are growing. If you never try new things , how can you improve ? How can you create? The simple answer is, “ You can’t .” Look around you, everything you see is the result of someone trying new things.
Another good thing about mistakes is this : when your are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this： Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb. When he was asked how he felt to fail that many times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work.
Finally , when you make a mistake, you are that much closer to success. Why? Because you have said what you should say, and you have done what you should do. Every time you make a mistake, you are closer to success. But it doesn’t mean that you can make mistakes without thinking. Instead, when you try new things you have to think them over, so that you can keep away from some unnecessary mistakes.
We shouldn’t spend all our time and money on the only one way , but use them correctly. Because our time and money are limited. (有限的)
There is an old saying, “ If you are not making mistakes, you are not trying hard enough.” So go bravely and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And succeed.
根據短文內容，選擇正確答案，并將其字母代號填人題前括號內。(共5小題，每小題2分，滿分10分)
小題1:If you are making a mistake, that means____.
A．you’re carefulB．you’re kind
C．you’re growingD．you know nothing.
小題2:If you never try new things, you can’t ____.
A．improveB．createC．spendD．A and B
小題3:After Edison failed 10,000 times, he _____.
A．gave upB．invented the light bulb
C．invented the computerD．invented 10,000 new things
小題4:When you make a mistake, you are closer to ____.
A．timeB．moneyC．successD．everything
小題5:What’s the main idea of the passage?
A．Never make mistakes.
B．You can make mistakes without thinking
C．Sometimes it’s good to make mistakes.
D．Making mistakes is terrible

One summer vacation in my college, my roommate Ted asked to me to work on his father’s farm in Argentina. The idea was exciting. Then I had second thoughts. I had never been far from New England, and I had been homesick my first few weeks at college. What about the language? The more I thought about it, the more the idea worried me.
Finally, I turned down the invitation. Then I realized I had turned down something I wanted to do because I was scared and felt depressed(沮喪). That experience taught me a valuable lesson and I developed a rule for myself: do what makes you anxious(焦慮); don’t do what makes you depressed.
In my senior year, I wanted to be a writer. But my professor wanted me to teach. I hesitated. The idea of writing was much scarier than spending a summer in Argentina. Back and forth I went, making my decision, unmaking it. Suddenly I realized that every time I gave up the idea of writing, that downhearted feeling went through me.
Giving up writing really depressed me. Then I learned another lesson. To avoid the depression meant having to bear much worry and concern.
When I first began writing articles, I often interviewed big names. Before each interview I would get butterflies in the stomach. One of them was the great composer Duke Ellington. On the stage and on television, he seemed very confident. Then I learned Ellington still got stage fright（害怕）. If Ellington still had anxiety attacks, how could I avoid them? I went on doing those frightening interviews. Little by little, I was even looking forward to the interviews. Where were those butterflies?
In truth, they were still there, but fewer of them. I had learned from a process psychologists（心理學家） call “extinction”. If you put an individual in an anxious situation often, finally there isn’t anything to be worried about, which brings me to a conclusion: you’ll never get rid of anxiety by avoiding the things that caused it.
The point is that the new, the different, is definitely scary. But each time you try something, you learn, and as the learning piles up, the world opens to you.
小題1:We can infer from the passage that the author________. 
A．finds it difficult to make decision
B．has found out what causes anxiety
C．was encouraged by Duke Ellington’s stage fright
D．no longer feels anxious about new experiences
小題2:What does the word “extinction” in Paragraph 6 means?
A．a person’s loss of confidence little by little
B．the natural development of a child’s abilities
C．the inborn ability to avoid anxious situations
D．the process of losing fear by keeping facing anxiety
小題3:Which of the following opinions does the writer probably accept?
A．Anxiety can be a positive drive
B．Hesitation leads to depression.
C．Avoiding anxiety reduces depression.
D．Depression is a signal that one is growing up.
小題4:What's the best title for the passage?
A．Confidence: Key to Success
B．Anxiety: Challenge by Another Name
C．Depression: A Psychological Appearance
D．Success: A Trip Through Anxiety and Depression
