Whenever my kids have a party at school, I am the mom who always signs up to bring the juice boxes. It’s not because I’m 36 or that I don’t care if my kids have a good party. I am just not good at making homemade bread into holiday-themed shapes like other mothers. 37 , I’m happy to try, even though it’ll 38 me a long time to do it.
People say that housewives should have the 39 to make delicious meals, keep their houses clean, and 40 every minute of their child’s life. Their words used to 41 me a lot. I felt that I should also be able to do those things as a housewife. So 42 I couldn’t make the turkey-shaped cookies, I 43 feeling like a failure as a mom.
After many 44 attempts at baking, and many afternoons spent crying over my inabilities as a mother, I finally accepted the 45 that my lot(命運) in life is to be the juice box mom. I worked hard to be the 46 one in the elementary school. And after one of my daughter’s class parties, it 47 . Her teacher stopped me as I was leaving and said, “Thank you so much for always bringing 48 drinks. Sometimes parents forget that other children will also 49 class parties, and they end up being left out because we don’t have enough 50 for everyone.”
I just accepted her appreciation, rather than telling her that I brought extra drinks because I could 51 remember how many kids were in the class. But her 52 taught me an important lesson: I’m not a failure as a mom.
Not everyone is cut out to be a(n) 53 mom. I believe it’s okay to be the juice box mom. I may not bake cookies and decorate them beautifully, but I 54 something to drink. And I think that’s just as 55 .

Most people seem to be passive at work. They do what they are told to do, and they don’t do what they are not told to do. In the end, one thing results: unmotivated (不積極的) people.
We’re employed to think. In fact, no matter how many times our bosses disagree with us, it is our responsibility to think for the company. There are lots of times when I disagree with my boss, and sometimes we even end up having arguments; however, I still offer my suggestions whenever I don’t agree.
Spending more time thinking also helps us to be more efficient (高效的) and helps to reduce our chances of frustration (挫敗). Before I do something, I usually need some time to think about it to make sure that what I’m doing makes sense. This can be as long as a few days when a project is big, or as short as only a few seconds for a simple task. After thinking about a project, it sometimes becomes clear that a simple task could achieve the same result. In those cases, not only did I save myself from possible frustration, but I also felt happy and satisfied that I saved valuable resources for my company.
With so many people not taking time to think, it’s no wonder that many people are unmotivated. Today, I encourage you to think things over whenever you have a chance. At first, it might take a while, but once it becomes a habit, you will feel more motivated as you will be more valuable to the company.
It is suggested in the passage that people should _____.
A. stop arguing with their bosses
B. seize every chance they meet
C. present views to their companies
D. avoid big projects
According to the passage, spending more time thinking _________.
A. is a waste of time and resources
B. can help people understand what others do
C. can help people impress their companies
D. is a good way to improve efficiency
The author wrote this passage to ________.
A. persuade people to do what they are not told to do
B. encourage people to be more motivated
C. show people how to give different opinions
D. tell people how to form good thinking habits.
It can be inferred from the passage that the author is ______ at work.
A. negative B. lazy C. positive D. powerful

If I had known earlier that there was a reason why I was a low achiever, I may not have worked so hard in my late twenties and early thirties. I was writing. I was working for no other reason than to hear people 51 me.

I write 64 . I go like the wind and can 65 up to 15 pages a day. Writing is not the 66 . I have no problem in downloading; it's inputting where things get jumbled(混亂).
The real 67 I have for the dyslexics is not that they have to 68 with jumbled input, but that they will give up before they finish school. Parents have to create victories 69 they can, whether it' s music, sports or arts. You want your dyslexic child to be able to say, "Yeah, reading is 70 . But I have other things I can do."

A
Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson, Arizona he moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.
My earliest memories of my father are a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and his family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard.
On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor café. We walked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my father’s critical (挑剔的) air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before?
The next day dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I’m delighted with my new friend. In his new home in Arizona, my dad is back to me from where he was.

The way we get about has a deep influence on the way we live－affecting where we set up home, work and holiday. So what changes might come in the way we get around? What big ideas are out there, and do they have any chance of coming true?
Personal Air Travel
The idea: flying cars
Developments in light small plane technology will make it possible for everyone to own what are, in fact, flying cars. They will have closed cabins, heating, stereos and room for two people.
You will take off from a field near your home and fly to towns and cities. After landing, you will take off the fixed wing and continue your journey by road just as if you were traveling by car.
Fuel efficient engines and the advantage of being able to travel in the sky will keep costs and the environmental influence down.
Flying for Fun
The idea: Jet Packs
The idea was a hit when a stuntman (特技演員) flew around on one during the opening ceremony of the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, which was very successful.
You’ll be able to use the equipment－roughly the size of two scuba tanks fastened to your back－for short journeys.
They will be handy for cleaning hard-to-reach windows, arriving in style at a party and shopping.
Taxis
The idea: driverless taxis
These computer-controlled taxis will take you wherever you want along a fixed route, whenever you want to go.
For the price of one person’s bus fare, several people can ride at speeds of up to 25 mph, and there will be fences to guard against accidents.
There will be little, if any, wait for the use of the taxis, which will leave from stations and will be used by prepaid cards.
The taxis, which will travel on a 1.5 m-wide track, will use 75% less energy per passenger than a car and 50% less than a bus.

There is one word that is on the lips of Americans, day and night: “Sorry.”
One time as I was walking on the street, a young man ran by hurriedly, brushing against my handbag. Even as he continued on his way, he turned back and said “sorry” to me. Even in a rush, he didn’t forget to apologize. One day, after I bought a mango, the salesman was giving me the change, but I wasn’t ready for it and a coin dropped to the ground. “I’m sorry,” he said while bending down to pick it up. I was puzzled—why would he apologize when it is my fault?
Another time, I stepped on a man’s foot in an escalator, at the same time, we both said “sorry”. I thought it interesting, was it really necessary for him to apologize? Later on, an American friend explained to me that according to the American mentality, the escalators a public place, and everyone should be able to stand in it. After someone occupies a position in the elevator, making it difficult for someone else to find a place to stand, isn’t it necessary to express an apology?
If you go to the movies and the tickets happen to be sold out, the ticket seller will say: “Sorry, the tickets are sold out.” Whenever one of your hopes goes unfulfilled, an American will say “sorry” as a sign of sympathy.
During my stay in America, I often came across situations in which I was supposed to say “sorry”. Gradually, I realized that when friction（摩擦）appears in daily life, Americans don’t care much about who is wrong; If someone is troubled, a “sorry” is always necessary. When this happens, even if the other person is hurt, the “sorry” cools tempers and human kindness is shown. Perhaps this is why I never saw anyone quarreling on the buses, subways or streets of America.
1.How many examples are given to show that Americans like to say “sorry”?
A．One B．Two C．Three D．Four
2.When the author was walking on the street, a young man ran by hurriedly ______.
A．and took away his bag B．and touched his bag
C．to help him with his bag D．to brush his bag
3.Which of the following plays a different role in the passage?
A．Paragraph 2 B．Paragraph 3 C．Paragraph 4 D．Paragraph 5
4.At last, the author’s attitude towards the Americans’ “sorry” seems to be ______.
A．angry B．interested C．approving(贊成) D．disappointed
5.The best title for the passage can be “_______”.
A．My life in America B．Americans’ “sorry”
C．My experience in an escalator D．The meaning of “sorry”
