Growing older is unavoidable while growing up is optional. These words have been passed on in the loving of Rose.

On the first day of school our professor challenged us to get to know someone, so I to find a little old lady looking at me with a smile. She said, “Hi, handsome! My name is Rose. I’m eighty-seven years old. Can I give you a ?” I laughed and responded, then followed a giant squeeze. come that are you in college at such an innocent age?” I asked. “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, have a couple of kids...” I was what it was that motivated her to be taking on this at her age. “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I it!” Later, we became friends.

Rose became a campus celebrity and she easily made friends she went. On one Rose was invited to speak at our football banquet. Her prepared cards dropped before she_ the speech. A little , she simply her throat and began, We do not stop playing we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There are certain secrets to stay , being happy and achieving success. You’ve got to have a dream. When you your dreams, you die.”…

At the end of the year Rose finished her college education. One week after graduation Rose died in her sleep. Over two thousand college students her funeral in honr of the wonderful woman who taught by that it’s never too late to be all you can possibly be.

Anybody can grow older, which doesn’t any talent or ability. The key is to grow up by always finding opportunities in change.

【題目】Two traveling angels(天使) stop to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the guest room. Instead the angels were given a space in the cold basement. As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it. When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied, “Things aren’t always what they seem.”

The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor but very hospitable(好客的) farmer and his wife. After sharing what little food they had, the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night’s rest. When the sun came up the next morning, the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their only income, lay dead in the field.

The younger angel was very angry and asked the older angel, “How could this happen? Why didn’t you watch out for the cow? The first man had everything, yet you watched over his house,” she accused. “The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you didn’t help.”

“Things aren’t always what they seem,” the older angel replied. “When we stayed in the basement, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since the owner was so greedy and unwilling to share his good fortune, I asked God if I could seal(封口) the wall so he couldn’t find it. Then last night as we slept in the farmer’s bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I asked God if the angel could take the cow instead. Things aren’t always what they seem.”

1Why did the old angel repair the hole for the rich family?

A. Because the basement was too cold to stay in.

B. Because she wanted to save the gold for the poor.

C. Because she wanted to punish the greedy owner.

D. Because she believed that one should always be ready to offer help.

2In Paragraph Two, “the pair” refers to ________.

A. the poor couple B. the rich couple

C. the guests D. the angels

3The story tries to tell the readers that_________.

A. sometimes things are not what they seem

B. angels are always ready to help the poor

【題目】Why is setting goals important? ___【1】___ Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen. Successful people imagine how their life should be and set lots of goals.

By setting goals you are taking control of your life. It's like having a map to show you where you want to go. Think of it this way. There are two drivers. One has a destination in mind which can be found on a map. She can drive straight there surely without any wasted time of wrong turns. ___2___ She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but she drives aimlessly around, never getting anywhere, just using up gas. Which driver do you want to be?

Winners in life set goals and follow them through. They decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. ___3___ Goals aren't difficult to set and they aren't difficult to reach.

___4__ You are the one who must decide what to achieve and in what direction to aim your life.

Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it. ___ 5__ Like a contract(合同) with yourself, they are harder to neglect or forget. Also when you write your goals in a particular way, you are able to make yourself continuously aware of situations that will bring you nearer to your goal.

A.Because everybody should have a goal in his mind.

B.Unsuccessful people usually just let life happen by accident.

C.The other driver has no goal, or destination or map.

D.It's difficult for a driver to reach his destination without a map.

E.It's up to you to find out what your goals really are.

F.Because goals can help you do, be, and experience everything you want in life.
