10、oblem. I told him that I couldnt do it. He asked, “Why not?” I paused, and then I said, “Because Im educable mentally retarded (可教育智能迟滞).” He came from behind his desk and looked at me. “Dont ever say that again. Someones opinion of you does not have to become your reality,” he said. It was a very s
11、pecial moment for me. Doctors said that I was educable mentally retarded in the fifth grade, and I was put back into the fourth grade. When I was in the eighth grade, I failed again. But Mr. Washington changed my life. This person always gave students the feeling that he had high expectations of the
12、m, and then all of the students did their best to live up to what those expectations were. He often said, “You have greatness within you.” One day, I caught up with him in the parking place and said, “Mr. Washington, is there greatness within me, sir?” He said, “Yes, Mr. Brown.” “But what about the
13、fact that I failed English, math, and history? What about that, sir? Im slower than most kids.” “It doesnt matter. It just means that you have to work harder. Your grades dont determine who you are or what you can produce in your life.” “I want to buy my mother a house.” “It is possible, Mr. Brown.
14、You can do that.” And he turned to walk away. “Mr. Washington?” “What do you want now?” “Uh, Im the one, sir. One day youre going to hear my name. Im the one, sir.” School was a real struggle for me. Mr. Washington put many demands on me. He made me believe that I could do it. At the end of that yea
15、r, I was on the honor roll for the first time in my life. Years later, I produced five programs on public television. When one of my programs was shown on the educational television channel, I had some friends call him. I was sitting by the phone waiting when he called me. He said, “May I speak to M
16、r. Brown, please?” “Oh, Mr. Washington, is that you?” “Yes, its me. You were the one, werent you?” “Yes, sir, I was.”21.

The best title for the passage would be “_”. A. Dont believe others B. I am the one C. My best teacher D.
19、 I succeeded at last BYou cant always predict a heavy rain or remember your umbrella. But designer Mikhail Belyaev doesnt think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you getting wet. Thats why he created Lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing um
20、brella. The designer says he came up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “Once, I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street and saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy (伞蓬) built int
21、o a street lamp,” he said. The Lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella on demand. Sensors (传感器) ensure that the umbrella offers pedestrians (行人) shelter whenever it starts raining. In addition
22、to the rain sensor, theres also a 360 motion sensor on the fiberglass street lamp which detects whether anyone is using the Lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed. According to the designer, the Lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm
23、to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lightning strike. Each Lampbrella would offer enough shelter for several people. Being installed at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians. While there are no plans to take Lampbrell
24、a into production, Belyaev says he recently introduced his creation to one Moscow Department, and insists this creation could be installed on any street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter. 25. For what purpose did Belyaev create the Lampbrella?A. To predict a hea
25、vy rain. B. To check the weather forecast. C. To protect people from the rain. D. To remind people to take an umbrella. 26. What do we know from Belyaevs words in Paragraph 2?A. His creation was inspired by an experience. B. It rains a lot in the city of Saint Petersburg.C. Street lamps are protecte
26、d by canopies.D. He enjoyed taking walks in the rain.27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The designer will open a company to promote his product.B. The Lampbrella could be put into immediate production. C. The designer is confident that his creation is practical.D. The Lampbrella wou
27、ld be put on show in Moscow. CDear Reader,I receive many letters from children and cant answer them allthere wouldnt be time enough in a day. That is why I am sending you this printed reply to your letter. Ill try to answer some of the questions that are commonly asked.Where did I get the idea for S
28、tuart Little and for Charlottes Web? Well, many years ago I went to bed one night in a railway sleeping car, and during the night I dreamed about a tiny boy who acted rather like a mouse. Thats how the story of Stuart Little got started.As for Charlottes Web, I like animals and my barn（谷仓）is a very
29、pleasant place to be, at all hours. One day when I was on my way to feed the pig, I began feeling sorry for the pig because, like most pigs, he was doomed to die. This made me sad. So I started thinking of ways to save a pigs life. I had been watching a big grey spider at her work and was impressed
30、by how clever she was at weaving. Gradually I worked the spider into the story that you know, a story of friendship and salvation（拯救）on a farm. Three years after I started writing it, it was published. (I am not a fast worker, as you can see.)Sometimes Im asked how old I was when I started to write,
31、 and what made me want to write. I started earlyas soon as I could spell. In fact, I cant remember any time in my life when I wasnt busy writing. I dont know what caused me to do it, or why I enjoyed it, but I think children often find pleasure and satisfaction in trying to set their thoughts down o
32、n paper, either in words or in pictures. I was no good at drawing, so I used words instead. As I grew older, I found that writing can be a way of earning a living.Some of my readers want me to visit their school. Some want me to send a picture, or an autograph, or a book. And some ask questions abou
33、t my family and my animals and my pets. Much as Id like to, I cant go visiting. I cant send books, eitheryou can find them in a bookstore or a library. Many children assume that a writer owns (or even makes) his own books. This is not truebooks are made by the publisher. If a writer wants a copy, he
34、 must buy it. Thats why I cant send books. And I do not send signaturesI leave that to the movie stars. I live most of the year in the country, in New England. From our windows we can look out at the sea and the mountains. I live near my married son and three grandchildren.Are my stories true, you a
35、sk? No, they are imaginary tales, containing fantastic characters and events. In real life, a family doesnt have a child who looks like a mouse; in real life, a spider doesnt spin words in her web. In real life, a swan doesnt blow a trumpet. But real life is only one kind of lifethere is also the li
36、fe of the imagination. And although my stories are imaginary, I like to think that there is some truth in them, tootruth about the way people and animals feel and think and act.Yours sincerely：E.B. White 28The author wrote the letter because _.Ahe is not a fast workerBhe was invited to answer the qu
37、estionsChe didnt have enough time to answer all the lettersDhe felt sorry for not being able to send books to his readers29What probably caused the writer to get interested in writing childrens book?AWriting can be a way to earn his living. BThe fact that he was not good at drawing. CHis mother infl
38、uence on his childhood.DThe instinct of children.30From Para.5, we can learn that .Amany famous people like to visit schoolsBmovie stars will send autographs to readersCmany people think authors have copies of their own booksDthe author lives with his married son and three grandchildren31In the last
39、 paragraph, the author is trying to tell us .Awe only have one kind of lifeBthere is no truth in imaginary talesCimaginary tales are based on our true lifeDfantastic characters and events only exist in imaginary tales DThese days, it seems that almost all of us are too seriousMy older daughter often
40、 says to me, “Daddy, youve got that serious look again” Even those of us who are committed to（致力于） non-seriousness are probably too seriousPeople are frustrated and anxious about almost everything - being five minutes late, witnessing someone look at us wrong or say the wrong thing, paying bills, wa
41、iting in line, overcooking a meal, making an honest mistake - you name it, and we all lose perspective（理性判断） over itThe root of being anxious is our unwillingness to accept life as being different, in any way, from our expectationVery simply, we want things to be a certain way but theyre not a certa
42、in wayLife is simply as it isPerhaps Benjamin Franklin said it best: “Our limited perspective, our hopes and fears become our measure of life, and when circumstances（环境）dont fit our ideas, they become our difficulties” We spend our lives wanting things, people, and events to be just as we want them
43、to be - and when theyre not, we fight and we sufferThe first step in recovering from over-seriousness is to admit that you have a problemYou have to want to change, to become more easygoingYou have to see that your own anxiety is largely of your own creation - its made up of the way you have set up
44、your life and the way you react to itThe next step is to understand the link between your expectations and your frustration levelWhenever you expect something to be a certain way and it isnt, youre upset and you sufferOn the other hand, when you let go of your expectations, when you accept life as i
45、t is, youre freeA good exercise is to try to approach a single day without expectationDont expect people to be friendlyWhen theyre not, you wont be surprised or bothered; if they are, youll be delightedDont expect your day to be problem-freeInstead, as problems come up, say to yourself, “Ah, another
46、 barrier to overcome” As you approach your day in this manner youll notice how elegant life can beRather than fighting against life, youll be dancing with itPretty soon, with practice, youll lighten up your entire lifeAnd when you lighten up, life is a lot more fun32Why are people easily frustrated and anxious these days?ABecause their children are disappointingBBecause they have to look serious in publicCBecause life is becoming a greater burdenDBecause people have lost sensible judgment33According to Benjamin Frank
