It’s good to make mistakes, and here is why．
First of all, mistakes are a clear  36 that you are trying new things．It’s always   37  to try new things because when you are trying new things you are   38 ．If you never try anything new, how can you   39 ? The simple answer is “You can’t”．With few exceptions, every single detail of development is the   40 of someone trying something new．
When you are making mistakes, you are  41  ．Edison failed 10,000 times before he   42  the light bulb．When asked how it felt to  43  that many times, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t  44 ．
Finally, when you make a mistake you are much   45  to success．Why ?
When all is done, you will have tried some number of things before you succeed．  46  you make a mistake you eliminate (排除) one of those things and are one step closer．
But this all doesn’t mean that you should go ahead   47  considering the consequences of a mistake．Quite the contrary, when you try something new, you   48   be willing to set some reasonable limits, so that in the event that it doesn’t   49  the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again．
We all have   50  resources in time and money, so don’t blow them all on one   51  to a problem．Realize that it probably won’t be perfect the first time, and allocate (分配)  these resources properly so you can learn,   52   corrections, and try it again．Only by  53    and using your mistakes in this way, can you make significant  54   in your business or career．
As an old saying goes, “If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough．”
So go  55  and make mistakes．And learn．And grow．And succeed．

科目：高中英語 來源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

Twenty-first century humanity has mapped oceans and mountains, visited the moon, and surveyed the planets. But for all the progress, people still don’t know one another very well.
That brings about Theodore Zeldin’s “feast of conversation”－events where individuals pair with persons they don’t know for three hours of guided talk designed to get the past “Where are you from?”
Mr. Zeldin, an Oxford University professor, heads Oxford Muse, a 10-year-old foundation based on the idea that what people need is not more information, but more inspiration and encouragement.
The “feast” in London looks not at politics or events, but at how people have felt about work, relations among the sexes, hopes and fears, enemies and authority, the shape of their lives. The “menu of conversation” includes topics like “How have your priorities(優(yōu)先考慮的事) changed over the years?” Or, “What have you rebelled against the past?”
As participants gathered, Zeldin opened with a speech: that despite instant communications in a globalized age, issues of human heart remain. Many people are lonely, or in routines that discourage knowing the depth of one another. “We are trapped in shallow conversations and the whole point now is to think, which is sometimes painful,” he says. “But thinking interaction is what separates us from other species, except maybe dogs…who do have generations of human interactions.”
The main rules of the “feast”: Don’t pair with someone you know or ask questions you would not answer. The only awkward moment came when the multi-racial crowd of young adults to seniors, in sun hats, ties and dresses, looked to see whom they would be ‘intimate’ with for hours. But 15 minutes later, everyone was seated and talking, continuing full force until organizers interrupted them 180 minutes later.
“It’s encouraging to see the world is not just a place of oppression and distance from each other,” Zeldin summed up. “What we did is not ordinary, but it can’t be madder than the world already is.”
Some said they felt “l(fā)iberated” to talk on sensitive topics. Thirty-something Peter, from East London, said that “it might take weeks or months to get to the level of interaction we suddenly opened up.”
小題1:What can the “conversations” be best described as?
A．Deep and one-on-one.B．Sensitive and mad.
C．Instant and inspiring.D．Ordinary and encouraging.
小題2:In a “feast of conversations”, participants ______.
A．pair freely with anyone they like
B．have a guided talk for a set of period of time
C．a(chǎn)sk questions they themselves would not answer
D．wear clothes reflecting multi-racial features.
小題3:In paragraph 6, “they would be ‘intimate’” is closest in meaning to “______”.
A．they would have physical contactB．they would have in-depth talk
C．they would be close friendsD．they would exchange basic information
小題4:From the passage, we can conclude that what Zeldin does is ______.
A．a(chǎn)n attempt to promote thinking interaction
B．one of the maddest activities ever conducted
C．a(chǎn) try to liberate people from old-fashioned ideas
D．a(chǎn)n effort to give people a chance of talking freely

Flowers only bloom(開花) when they are planted in the right soil. That is also true for me.
I first moved to Foxboro, Massachusetts, as a single mother with my baby daughter, Darcy. I was drawn to its New England beauty, friendly people and rich history. It happened that there were a lot of forsythia(連翹) bushes around the house in which I lived just like my childhood home. I joined St. Mark’s Episcopal Church where I taught the Sunday school. At church, I met my second husband, Dean. For more than 25 years, I bloomed in Foxboro, and I had another two children.
Then, when Darcy was a few years out of college, she moved to Alameda, California, to be near friends. I missed her badly. A year later my beloved husband Dean had deadly cancer. He only made it eight months. My heart was broken. Later I moved to Alameda with my children. It was a beautiful Victorian island, and I was grateful to spend more time with Darcy. I even attended a church and made a few friends there. Still, I couldn’t help but miss Foxboro. It had everything and everyone I loved.
One spring day, when I was walking by a school, something yellow caught my eyes. Forsythia bushes! They made me homesick and I kept back my tears. “I miss you, Foxboro,” I whispered. Then I went into a shop and looked at some ceramic(陶瓷的) pots lined up on a shelf. A large white one seemed to catch my attention. “That’ll be perfect in my living room,” I thought.
I turned it over to look at the price. Instead I found these words: “New England Pottery, Foxboro, Massachusetts.” A piece of artwork, from my second hometown, was right here. It was able to spread across the country and so were forsythia bushes. I took it as a sign that I can bloom, right where I am.
小題1:From the text we learn that the author ____.
A．gave birth to three children in Foxboro
B．planted forsythia bushes around her house
C．got to know her second husband at church
D．worked as a middle school teacher in Foxboro
小題2:The author moved to Alameda so that she could ____.
A．have more time together with Darcy
B．forget the sorrow at her husband’s death
C．visit her children at Alameda College frequently
D．enjoy the beautiful scenery on the Victorian island
小題3:When the author saw forsythia bushes at a school she _____.
A．wanted to buy a ceramic pot to put them in
B．thought of her life in Foxboro
C．felt they would look great in her living room
D．believed they were real art work
小題4:Why does the author compare herself to flowers?
A．Because she wanted to show she likes flowers.
B．Because she can live in any place that is right like flowers.
C．Because she moved across the country just like flowers.
D．Because girls are like flowers that are blooming.

I never thought I would have a life-changing experience at Wal-Mart.
Although my thoughts were only on speed, the checkout line I was standing in wasn’t moving as quickly as I wanted, and I glanced toward the cashier. There stood a man in his seventies, wearing glasses and a nice smile. I thought, well, he’s an old guy!
For the next few minutes I watched him. He greeted every customer before scanning the items. Sure, his words were the usual, “How’s it going?” But he did something different—he actually listened to people. Then he would respond to what they had said and engage them in brief conversation.
I thought it was odd (古怪的). I have grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of robotic conversational habit. After a while, you don’t give any thought to the question and just say something back. I could say, “I just found out I have six months to live,” and someone would reply, “Have a great day!”
But that wasn’t the end. He gave them the change, walked around the counter, and extended his right hand in an act of friendship. He looked the customers in the eyes. “I sure want to thank you for shopping here today,” he told them. “You have a great day. Bye-bye.”
The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless. There were smiles and some sheepish grins (咧嘴一笑). All had been touched by his simple gesture—and in a place they never expected. They would gather their things and walk out, smiling.
Of course, he did the same to me and I got to know his name, Marty.
56. 小題1:The checkout line the writer was standing in moved slower than expected because ________.
A．the cashier couldn’t work as fast as others
B．there were some big purchases
C．the cashier did more than scanning the items
D．the writer was not patient enough
57．小題2:According to the writer, when common people ask you “How’s it going?”________.
A．they don’t really care what you may answer
B．they are just practicing their conversation ability
C．they are asking about your private information
D．they don’t expect to hear any negative answers
58．小題3:What was most customers reaction on Marty’s behaviors?
A．They thought it priceless.B．They were in some way moved.
C．They thought it awful and odd.D．They felt somewhat annoyed..
59．小題4:What does the writer intend to express through the text?
A．Our everyday life is always full of surprises.
B．Most customers enjoy being treated this way.
C．Being different is a good way of doing business.
D．A little positive action can make a big difference.

The Man was very sad. He knew that the Cat's days were numbered. The doctor had said there wasn’t anything more that could be done, and that he should take the Cat home and make him as comfortable as possible.
A tear rolled down the Man’s cheek and landed on the Cat’s forehead, The Cat gave him a slightly annoyed look. “Why do you cry, Man?” the Cat asked. “Because you can’t bear the thought of losing me? Because you think you can never replace me?” The Man nodded “yes”.
“Pick up that piece of string from the floor. There, my ‘toy’. The Man reached over and picked up the string. It was about two feet long and the Cat had been able to entertain himself for hours with it. “Now take each end of the string in one hand,” the Cat ordered. The Man did so.
“The end in your left hand is my birth and the end in your right hand is my death. Now bring the two ends together,” the Cat said. The man did so. Then the Cat continued, “You have made a continuous circle. Does any point along the string appear to be different, worse or better than any other part of the string?” The Man inspected the string and then shook his head.
“Close your eyes.” the Cat said. “Now lick your hand.” The Man widened his eyes in surprise. “Just do it,” the Cat said. “Lick your hand, think of me in all my familiar places, and think about all the pieces of string.”
Licking his hand, he discovered what a cat must know, that licking a paw is very calming and allows one to think more clearly. He continued licking and the corners of his mouth turned upward into the first smile he had shown in days. He waited for the Cat to tell him to stop, and when he didn’t, he opened his eyes. The Cat’s eyes were closed. The Man stroked(輕撫) the warm, brown fur, but the Cat was gone.
One day, not long after, there was a new cat on his lap. She was a lovely white cat. It is very different from his earlier beloved Cat and very much the same.
小題1:Why did the Cat give the man a slightly annoyed look?
A．Because the man’s tears made the Cat really anxious.
B．Because the Cat didn’t know what made the man burst into tears.
C．Because the Cat couldn’t go to sleep when the man was in low spirits.
D．Because the man didn’t have to be so sad and concerned.

“In fact, it was your playing 小題19: gave me a meaningful autumn,” I answered, “Let's be friends.”
The girl smiled, and so did I.
I never heard her play again in my life. I no longer went downstairs to listen like before. Only thick leaves were left behind. But I will always remember the fine figure (身影) of the girl.

Everything else is   15 .
