Is Failure a Bad Thing?

Failure is what often happens in our life. Students may fail in exams, scientists may fail in their research work, and athletes may fail in competitions.

Although failure happens to everyone, attitudes towards failure are various. Some people don't think their failure is very important thing at all. So they pay no attention to it. As a result, they will have the same failure many times later. They spend their time and energy on Useless things and they may really be fools as they have thought. Other people are quite different from the people mentioned above. Instead of being distressed and lost, they draw a lesson from every failure and become more experienced. After hard work, they will be successful in the end. It is said that failure is the mother of success. Success will be gained after times of failures so long as we are good at drawing a lesson from our failure.

In my opinion, failure is not a bad thing; the really bad thing is taking a failure as failure or even losing heart after failure.

Until March 28, the fate of the gray wolf in the Rocky Mountains was in the hands of the federal government because the wolf was listed as an endangered species. But once it was removed from the list ― a decision that is being challenged in court by a dozen conservation groups ― the gray wolf fell under the protection of individual states. That is turning out to mean almost no protection at all.

Idaho’s Fish and Game department announced last week that it would allow 428 of the state’s estimated 1,000 wolves to die this year. Some will die of natural causes. Most will be killed by hunters.

Idaho officials argue that the remaining population will still be larger than the very small number to be protected in the original federal wolf recovery plans. But Idaho’s Fish and Game department has overruled its own staff biologists, who for the good of the wolf population ― and the ecosystem（生態(tài)系統(tǒng)） as a whole ― argued that more animals should be allowed to survive.

Sadly, in Idaho, wolves are nothing more than another game animal to be managed for the benefit of human hunters.

Beginning on Sept. 15, any Idaho hunter with a hunting license and $10.50 for a wolf tag will be entitled to shoot one wolf, at least until the quota（限額） of dead wolves in his region has been reached. And how will a hunter know if the local quota has been reached? There will be a hot line, of course.

Hunters will be encouraged not to shoot wolves wearing radio collars because those wolves are still being studied. Perhaps the solution is to fit all wolves with radio collars.

It is still possible that Idaho’s wolves ― and the wolves in other states ― will get a reprieve. A federal judge will soon decide whether to support or object to the government’s decision to delist the gray wolf. We hope he will restore the wolf to the endangered species list. There is no better proof of how dangerous life is for wolves than Idaho’s plan to protect them.

51. From the first paragraph, we can know that ______.

A. The gray wolf was not listed as an endangered species until March 28.

B. In the author’s opinion, individual states will not protect the gray wolf well

C. The gray wolf fell under the protection of individual states when it was listed as an endangered species.

D. It’s up to the federal government to protect the gray wolf after it was removed from the list.

52. Why do Idaho officials permit a certain number of gray wolves to be hunted?

A. Some will die of natural causes if they are not killed by hunters.

B. Hunters kill gray wolves for the good of the wolf population.

C. They argue that more animals should be allowed to survive.

D. The wolves left will still be more than those to be protected in the original federal wolf recovery plans.

53. What does the underlined word “reprieve” in the last paragraph mean?

A. An official order to put gray wolves back on endangered list.

B. An official order to remove the gray wolf from the list of endangered species.

C. An official order to permit 428 of the state’s estimated 1,000 wolves to be hunted

D. An official order to fit all wolves with radio collars.

B. There is no better plan to protect gray wolves than Idaho’s plan.

C. It will restore the wolf to the endangered species list.

D. It’s a danger to the life of the gray wolf.

GUANGZHOU -- At least 13 people were killed and nine left missing after Typhoon Hagupit swept through the country’s southern region on Wednesday, authorities said.

More than 11.5 million people in Guangdong, Hainan and Guangxi provinces were affected by the disaster, with direct economic losses reaching 13.46 billion yuan ($1.97 billion), Ministry of Civil Affairs figures showed.

Hagupit, the strongest typhoon to hit Guangdong and its Pearl River Delta region in 12 years, reportedly headed south toward Vietnam on Thursday.

The typhoon killed nine people and left nine missing in Guangdong alone, causing direct economic losses of more than 7.7 billion yuan, Yang Minyi, a press official with the provincial flood, drought and wind prevention office, said yesterday.

Direct losses to agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery in the region were estimated at 4.2 billion yuan; industrial and transport sector, 1.5 billion yuan; and water conservancy infrastructure, 1 billion.

A total of 6.52 million people in 344 towns in the cities of Maoming, Yangjiang, Zhanjiang, Zhuhai, Zhongshan and Jiangmen in the Pearl River Delta region and in the west of Guangdong bore the brunt of the typhoon in the province.

More than 15,300 houses fell down and 365,800 hectares(公頃) of farmland were affected, authorities said.

Wang Yugui, a pig farmer in Maoming city, said Hagupit proved fatal to his business.

About two-thirds of his 4,000-odd pigs had drowned or were left missing in the typhoon.

“The typhoon has landed me in huge debt and I really don’t know how to weather the losses,” Wang told China Daily yesterday.

Wang said many others in the city suffered similar losses when Hagupit hit the city on Wednesday morning.

Hagupit also hit a South Korean freight ship, named Zeus, in the waters off Jiangmen. All 17 sailors onboard were still missing, the Yangcheng Evening News reported on Friday.

Parenting the adolescent does take a different approach than parenting younger kids. Looking back it seemed relatively easy. They were born itty-bitty so you could take control usually to keep them safe from harm, to teach right from wrong and begin to equip them with problem solving and relationship skills. But hey, remember when they were about two or three years old and they began to toddle(蹣跚學(xué)步) off and test your limits? This was normal child development and you soon trusted that your child wouldn’t touch the stove, muck about in the flowerpots or bite the cat.

      Adolescence is kind of similar in process to the two or three year old testing their limits. In adolescence though the test is more towards social limits: who they can go out with, when, where and for how long. Unlike the young child though, adolescence is nerve-wracking(傷腦筋) because now they are truly out of sight, the stakes are higher and your didn’t raise your kid for 13 years plus to see them get into trouble now. Also unlike the young child, your teen is no longer itty-bitty and you can’t simply tell them what to do.

      Parenting the adolescent requires extreme trust, patience and letting them take responsibility for decisions even when the consequences are not favorable. They do need to learn what the mantle of responsibility means during adolescence so that as adults they are suitably equipped to then carry on responsibly. No practice no mastery. Taking responsibility takes practice and opportunity.

      Difficult as it may seem, the parenting style has to shift from being the boss to being a consultant. Now, no one is saying here that there aren’t any rules, but they are more flexible and more subject to negotiation. When you were the boss, you simply told your young child what to do and you expected them to follow your wishes. Now as a consultant you are more in an advisory position and must rely on the judgment of your teen to choose correctly.

41. Who are the intended readers of the passage?

A. Adolescents.                               B. Parents .  

C. Educators                                   D .Bosses

42. In the first paragraph, the author gives the example of two or three years old to show that ________.

   D. it is difficult to take control of kids about two or three yours old.

43. In the second paragraph, the author mentions _____ differences between parenting adolescents and younger kids.

   A. 2.                     B. 3                    C. 5.                    D. 6

44. It can be inferred from the text that ______.

   A. parents should let adolescents take responsibility for decision if the result is not harmful.

   B. adults are more suitably equipped to carry on responsibly.

   C. parents should provide opportunity for teens to practice taking responsibility.

    From Europe and Asia to the Middle East, many expressed amazement that the US could overcome centuries of racial conflict and elect an African-American president.

Nelson Mandela, South Africa's first black president, said Obama gave the world 31   courage to dream.

Liberian President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf ― the first woman  32  (elect) to head an African country ― said she did not expect to see a black American president  33  her lifetime.

“All 34 (Africa) now know that if you persevere（堅(jiān)持）, all things are possible,” she said.

In Indonesia, where Obama lived  35  child, hundreds of students at his former elementary school erupted in cheers when he  36  (declare) winner, pouring into the courtyard  37  they hugged, danced in the rain and chanted “Obama! Obama!”

“I remember in the class book, all students were writing down  38  goals and wishes. Some said they wanted to be lawyers, soldiers, pilot and doctors,  39  he was the one who said he wanted to be president,” said Dewi Asmara, a former classmate. “We never understood  40  was on his mind that day.”

    It so happens that while we in China are organized to fight the worst snow disaster in memory, many people in the United States are celebrating the 30^th   21   of anther snow crisis.

Going down in history as the “Great Blizzard(暴風(fēng)雪) of 1978”, the “white hurricane” that   22   North America in late January and early February 30 years ago   23   many Americans with no power, no heat, and no transportation for days or weeks on   24  . People were trapped in their houses or offices or on roads. A state of emergency was   25   in several states, and National Guard troops were called in to aid   26   people on highways.

Many Americans who lived through the blizzard have never forgotten it, nor will the Chinese people   27   their snow disaster 30 years later.

Statistics show that the 1978 blizzard   28   $500 million in damages to Massachusetts alone. It is not yet known how much the ongoing snow disaster will   29   China, but it is certain we will be hit harder since it struck right in the middle of the peak travel time for the country’s most important festival. And the snowstorms have hit parts of the country where such weather is   30  .

What is noteworthy is the similarity of the challenges posed by the two crises, though they are separated by three decades.
