We make a living with what we get, but we make a life with what we give.
--- Winston Churchill（溫斯頓 丘吉爾）
I am willing to 36 this saying. I have been 37 at the Boston Children’s Hospital every year since I was thirteen. At the beginning, I only wanted to go 38 I would get praise for entertaining children at the 39 . After giving my time for two months, my 40 changed completely.
When I first 41 into the waiting room on the ground floor, I was very 42 that I would be spending my entire summer with kids. As it became 43 for me to show up every day at 8 a.m., many kids began to 44 me. To my surprise, I began looking forward to seeing their 45 faces as well. They were always enthusiastic（熱情）about 46 . My heart warmed every time I heard their 47 voices asking me for a story or an answer to a question. I felt 48 and irreplaceable.
As I look back, I see the influence that these 49 children have had on me. It is because of them that I have 50 a desire to become a psychologist. Recently, I have volunteered for a month. I have been asked to 51 on many different floors besides the waiting room where I 52 . The kids on the floors above are usually there for a longer time.Despite their anxiety and desire to get better and go home, they always offer me a（n） 53 smile. I feel renewed about 54 a day with them because I realize that there is much more to 55 than money. It is much more important to love and to be loved.

科目：高中英語 來源：2013屆河北省容城中學(xué)高三上學(xué)期第三次月考英語試卷（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解
It’s good to make mistakes, and here is why．
First of all, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things． It’s always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing． If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you expand? The simple answer is “You can’t”． Look around you． With very few exceptions, either everything you see in your physical world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something new．
Another good thing about mistakes is this: When you are making mistakes, you are learning． Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb． When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work．
Finally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success． Why?
Because when all is said and done, you will have tried some number of things before you succeeded． Every time you make a mistake you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer．
But this all doesn’t mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences of a mistake． Quite the contrary, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesn’t work out the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again．
We all have limited resources in the form of time and money so don’t blow them all on one approach to a problem． Realize that it probably won’t be perfect the first time and allocate （分配） these resources appropriately so you can learn, make corrections, and try it again． Only by accepting and using your mistakes in this way can you make significant advances in your business and your career．
There is an old saying that goes, “If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough．”
So go forth and make mistakes． And learn． And grow． And prosper（成功）．
【小題1】From the second paragraph, we can conclude that _______．
| A．mistakes are unnecessary for development |
| B．we are afraid of trying new things |
| C．it’s common for people to make mistakes |
| D．mistakes are better than not trying |
| A．a(chǎn)void | B．remove | C．a(chǎn)ccept | D．solve |
| A．a(chǎn)voiding making the same mistakes |
| B．a(chǎn)ccepting the punishment willingly |
| C．taking consequences into account |
| D．trying things out one by one |
| A．Never mind, I can always try again． |
| B．I’d better stay out of trouble． |
| C．Ok! Now I can learn something． |
| D．Look at this mess． Anyone would be upset． |

C.
“An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Similarly, if we drink a little more water ever day, we may find that we need to go to the doctor a lot less often. A healthy diet is made up of water and a great many different kinds of foods. We know that healthy foods like fruits, vegetables and fish, are important as they provide us with energy and fibre, without giving us too much fat and sugar. But why is water important?
The human body needs water to survive. Water is important as it carries poisons and waste out of our bodies. However, doctors advise us to drink plenty of water, much more than the small amount we need to stay alive.
Some doctors believe that water is important for our health in all kinds of ways. They believe that a great many illnesses and health problems stars as a result of dehydration—a lack(缺少) of water in the body. Most people are dehydrated (脫水)at least some of time, although they probably don’t know it. It is surprising to learn that if we feel thirsty, we are already in the first stages of dehydration. In fact, we are advised to drink water before we feel thirsty.
These doctors think that health problems such as headaches, high blood pressure and asthma could be helped if people drink more water. They also believe that drinking more water can help people who are overweight. Water contains no calories so it will not make us put on weight. If we drink water, we will probably drink less sugary soft drinks such as Coca-cola. Doctors also believe that drinking more water may stop people from overeating. They say that many people think that they are hungry when they are, in fact, thirsty. Doctors suggest, therefore, that we eat less food and drink more water.
There are still many health problems that cannot be solved by drinking water, so we should not stop going to seeing the doctor completely. However, if we make a decision to drink water every day, we may find that we need to go to the doctor a lot less often.
63. We need _____for a healthy diet.
A. fibre B. food C. water D. Water and different foods
64. From the text, we know water can carry_________.
A.energy and fibre in our bodies
B.fruit, vegetables and fish in our bodies
C.sugar and fat out of our bodies
D.poisons and waste out of our bodies
65. Lack of water caused people to put on weight too much because_______.
A.they think they are hungry and eat too much
B.they think they are thirsty and eat less
C.water has no calories
D.it makes them hungry
66. Which of the following isn’t mentioned in the passage?
A.Fruit provides us with energy and fibre.
B.Some healthy problems start because of a lack of water.
C.Drinking more water may stop people from overeating.
D.The amount of water a person should drink in a day.
