Before the holiday, I thought about doing something meaningfully. Suddenly, I remembered that there was a lot of primary school students putting up small shops and sell red bags on the street last Spring Festival. Wanting to have a try, so I begged my father to support him. He bought some lovely red bags and small toy. For the first time in my life I begin to sell things at the gate of the park. This experience of selling taught me the secret of communicating strangers, and I understood what hard it is for my parents to make money.

4 . There is an old saying that all of us are born with two bags hung on our necks. A small bag in front of our chest is filled with other people's faults(缺点)，while the big one at the back is full of our own faults.

This makes it easy to find other people's faults, but hard to see our own faults behind us.

There was a boy named Tommy. He had four friends: Simon, Jack, Johnny and Harry. Tommy always opened the front bag to check what was in it. He saw other people's faults very quickly.

When Simon was impatient with him, he said to Simon, “It's so easy for you to get angry. It's hard to be friends with you.”

Later that day, Tommy told his mother about Jack's dishonesty. “Jack takes my things without asking. He also forgets to return them.” Tommy himself did not like sharing things with anyone.

When Johnny was too tired to play with him, he said, “You are such a rude person.”

He thought Harry was too proud of his rich family. But Tommy was just as proud of himself because he could not see any of his faults. He could not understand why he did not get on well with others.

If only Tommy would turn the bags around, he would discover his own impatience, dishonesty, bad manners and vanity(虚荣). They were no better than that of Simon, Jack, Johnny and Harry.

1. According to the story, the bag filled with our own faults is hung ________.

A．on our heads	B．in front of our chest
C．at the back	D．in our arms

2. Tommy found the following in his front bag EXCEPT ________.

A．dishonesty	B．patience
C．bad manners	D．vanity

3. Which of the following is TRUE?

A．Harry became angry easily.

B．Johnny took Tommy's things without asking.

C．Jack's parents were very rich, so he was very proud.

D．Tommy's faults were no better than those of his friends.

4. What can we learn from the story?

A．We should always point out other people's faults.

B．When we point out other's people's faults, you are helping them to be better people.

C．It's not easy for us to find our own faults, so we should not care about them.

D．We should always “turn our bags around" to see our own faults.

5 . It was the final soccer game of the year. I was excited because I love playing soccer，but I was also sad to see the season end. My friend Amanda played on my team. She had worked hard in practice, but she had not scored in a game all season. We had one last chance to change that.

The game started out fast. Players from both teams crowded around the ball as it moved up and down the field. After a few minutes, one of our players burst out of the crowd of players like a piece of overheated popcorn bursting from a pan. She sped down the field toward the other team’s goal, keeping the ball in front of her. With a speedy kick, she sent the ball through the air and toward the goal. The goalkeeper reached to block the shot，but the ball soared（高飞）past her hand.

Our team had scored first, and we let out a cheer.

Our cheering did not last long, though. The opposing team, like a sleeping creature that has been awakened, came quickly to life. Their players rushed down the field, keeping the ball out of the reach of our players. In no time they scored a goal, tying the game.

The players on our team looked worried. Winning this game was important to us, but it seemed just as important to the other team. An opposing player almost scored another goal, but we blocked the net so the ball could not go in. After that, the game stayed tied for a long time.

With less than a minute left in the game, I was able to get the ball and pass it to Amanda. She looked nervous at first, but then she began to move toward the goal. Stopping quickly, she kicked the ball as hard as she could. It flew through the air, past two players from the opposing team, and right into the net! Our team let out another cheer. A few seconds later, the game ended.

Amanda had scored her first goal, and we had won the game. Her effort all season had finally paid off. The whole team gathered around her joyfully.

“Thanks, Julie,” Amanda said to me with a smile.

“No problem,” I replied as we walked off the field. “You earned it!”

7 . 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一-篇完整的短文。

My parents love the saying “If at first you don't succeed, try, try again" so much that they even bought a pillow with those words on it. But I was recently in a situation where I was SO ready to give up.

It started last week when my friend Ollie and I were helping his grandmother Mary to carry boxes from her garage to her car for the homeless shelter rummage sale (义卖).

At the sight of a big old trunk (行李箱)，we asked Mary what was inside. But she told us that as she had lost the key, she had to find a master locksmith to figure it out. "Let me have a try!" said Ollie. “I bet I can open that lock in two minutes flat! Maybe there's a treasure inside, like gold or diamonds or an ancient map!"

Mary smiled. "I'll tell you what. If you two treasure hunters can open this trunk, you can have it, along with whatever is inside."

Ollie got a tool kit and we set out to open the lock. But he definitely lost that bet. Those two minutes turned into two hours, with no luck at all. We had tried every tool in the kit, but the lock wouldn't move slightly.

“It's no use." Ollie sighed. "I guess we have to give up."

“But we can't give up!" I said. "What about 'If at first you don't succeed, try, try again"?"

Ollie shook his head. "Unless you know a magical key fairy, we're never getting this unlocked."

Just then, my little brother Tex showed up. He showed great interest in the trunk. "It looks like an upside-down boat! Can I turn it over and pretend I'm sailing in the ocean?"

"Sure," Ollie replied. "It's no good for anything else."

“Ahoy!" Tex said, climbing on top after Ollie and I turned it over. “I’m the captain!” He giggled as he jumped up and down. And right then, a screw (螺丝) from a hinge (铰链) came loose and rolled to the floor.

8 . 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

My husband and I got to experience a total stranger's kindness and generosity first-hand during a 10-day trip across the High Atlas Mountains and the Sahara Desert.

On our second-to-last day in Morocco, we happily took a trip to Essaouira, an old and beautiful seaside town on the Atlantic. During the journey there, we stopped at an Argan co-operative（合作社）, where we got to taste some Argan oil and honey. After that, we headed where we stayed. We arrived at our small guesthouse in Essaouira at around dinnertime, and on our way to a local restaurants my husband started to feel unwell. He went back to our guesthouse while I had dinner with some friends.

When I got back to our guesthouse after dinner, I found my husband sitting on the bathroom floor, looking very pale. He had been sick about six times in an hour. He spent the rest of the night in the bathroom, getting very familiar with the house's pipe. Our main suspect was the Argan honey—it probably didn't agree with him.

At about 6 a. m., my husband finally managed to leave the bathroom and crawl into bed. He was very weak and dehydrated（脱水的），so I went down to the reception to buy a bottle of water. When I got to the lobby（门厅）,I found a young man behind the desk, who didn't look older than 18, and explained to him that my husband was sick and I needed to buy some bottled water for him.

Our house was very small and basic and didn't have a restaurant or cafe. The young man informed me that they didn't sell any drinks at the house, so I asked him where the nearest shop was.

I looked out the window and my heart started to race. I didn't fancy risking going into the unfamiliar streets of the Medina in the dark, all by myself. In fact, I was afraid of it.

Instead of giving me directions to the nearest shop, the young man asked me to wait for him there.

I handed him a 50 Dirham note （about 5 EUR） for the water.

9 . Watching a young, 21-year-old Jordan Spieth win the US Masters today, I could not help but think of the great qualities he displayed to win the most famous golf event on the calendar against the greatest players in the world.

Jordan Spieth has learned to keep himself in check. There is a great proverb: “A fool shares all his or her feelings while a wise man keeps them in check.” As I watched Spieth playing, I noticed a constant calm around him. Whether he hit the shot he wanted or not, he was the same and kept his emotions steady (稳定的) and strong. He never blamed the crowd, clubs or wind.

He knows which club he is going to drive with on every hole; he knows which side of the fairway (高尔夫球道) to land and exactly where he wants to be standing on every green when he is putting; he has played it through his minds for months. He is the person who makes things happen by planning in advance. Winning is not a fluke (侥幸击中); it’s a by-product of months and years of planning. Nothing happens by chance.

If there is an event that every golfer dreams of winning, it’s the US Masters. So, how would Spieth have felt in 2014 getting so close to winning but coming second? As good as second was, he only wanted to be first. The difference between great shots and poor shots at the Masters is only inches. In that 2014 final round, Spieth was standing on the 8th hole with a 2-shot lead, but through a number of small misses he lost it and never recovered it. However, he never stops learning. As a great person once said, “While you’re green, you’re growing; when you’re brown, you’re dying.” He stays green. He is always reading, learning, and he understands that the greatest teacher of all is failure.

1. Which description is suitable for Jordan Spieth?

A．He can control himself properly.	B．He likes to share his feelings.
C．He is a man of great knowledge.	D．He usually uses sayings when speaking.

2. What does the third paragraph want to tell about Jordan Spieth?

A．He always has a game plan and sticks to it.

B．He never does anything until it really happens.

C．He usually decides on a club to join in advance.

D．He can’t bear losing the chance of winning a game.

3. How did Jordan Spieth feel in the 2014 Masters?

A．Inspired.	B．Satisfied.
C．Doubtful.	D．Curious.

4. What is the text mainly about?

A．Feelings of losing the US Masters.	B．Sports qualities of Jordan Spieth.
C．Basic skills of winning a golf game.	D．Golfers’ dreams of joining the Masters.

10 . In America, teenagers start learning how to drive at fifteen. And they are ________ to test for their licenses at sixteen. Unfortunately, I was unable to test for my ________ at that age.

Now I was driving a(n) ________ vehicle, one that would take me farther and farther away from him.
