2、 my family created an ant (蚂蚁) farm. First, we put clean sand in a thin glass box, and then we waited for the live ants to arrive. Shortly after the ants were dropped into the glass box, they got to work making tunnels (地道). I was amazed that each one knew exactly what to do. After hours of staring,
3、 I realized that the ants had their own jobs. With my moms help, I kept a diary of what happened each day and named the ants. On the fifth day, a disaster hit the ant farm. The pages of the diary, still wrinkled where teardrops fell, show the depth of the disaster. I had put my face so close to the
4、glass box that I knocked it over. All the tunnels fell down. Although the ants survived the earthquake, one by one they began to die. I was frightened as I watched them give up their tunnel-building to carry the bodies to a corner of the farm. My mother said that the ants were dying of sadness. They
5、 simply could not stand the reality that their tunnels had been destroyed. Although much time has passed, I still think of that ant farm. Mom had hoped it would teach me about the natural world, but it taught me much more. Over the years, I came to realize the importance of teamwork. Working togethe
6、r, the ants were able to make an amazing world for themselves. I also learned that they should be praised for their hard work. But there was an even larger lesson that I did not realize until recently: Adversity (逆境) is a natural part of life, and must be accepted. Unlike the ants, we humans cannot
7、give up when we face disappointment. Unlike the ants, we have to realize that if a tunnel falls down, we just have to build another.1. What happened to the ant farm on the fifth day?A. A heavy rain hit the ant farm unexpectedly.B. The tunnels in the glass box were destroyed.C. The ants all died when
8、 the tunnels fell down.D. The ant farm was rebuilt after the accident.2. The mother built an ant farm to help the writer to _.A. learn to accept realityB. explore the natural worldC. understand how to work togetherD. realize the importance of hard work3. Which of the following would the writer most
9、probably agree with?A. Adversity makes humans even stronger.B. Humans should try hard to avoid disasters.C. Mothers should let their kids experience failures.D. Ants are braver than humans in face of adversity.B I had difficulty in finding work when I was in my twenties. Finally, Seagulls Reuse in L
10、eeds took me on as a volunteer. Its an environmental social enterprise that rescues 400 tonnes of paint from landfill (垃圾填埋池) annually and repurposes it to offer a bespoke (定制的) paint-mixing service. I carved out my own role, mixing paint, working with other volunteers and assisting customers, befor
11、e being hired as a decorator and full-time member of staff. It wasnt until then, in my late 20s, that I realised Im colour-blind. Mixing paint is nothing like the colour wheel you learn at school; blue and green doesnt just make green. You dont even mix different greens to make green paint. Its more
12、 technical and complex than that, and there are so many subtle (微妙的) variations. Dulux and other big companies let machines do all the work, but our process is nothing like that. We can also only use the colours we have in the warehouse that day, so we sometimes have to get creative. They have scien
13、tists, but we have our intuition (直觉), years of experience and an essential human touch and eye. Im 38 now, and have been at Seagulls for 11 years. Ive learned that I struggle most with colours. I see green in dark browns and creams and some reds I see as pink. So, along with the knowledge Ive now m
14、emorised, I use different skills with customers. I get them involved by explaining how Im creating their paint and encourage feedback (反馈). That way, were both helping each other get the perfect result. I write down things I do wrong, so I dont repeat them. If I tell customers Im colour-blind, theyr
15、e always shocked and say theyd never have guessed. I do have a visual problem, but Im not angry about it and wouldnt change it even if I could. Its made me push myself harder.4. Why did the author volunteer to work in Seagulls Reuse?A. It accepted colour-blind staff.B. It helped to save the environm
16、ent.C. He had no other better jobs to do.D. He possessed a talent for the work.5. What does Paragraph 2 tell us about mixing paint?A. Its rather challenging.B. Its compulsory at school.C. Its attractive to teenagers.D. Its unbearable to the author.6. How does the author improve his work?A. By learni

We shouldnt regret what weve done.B. We should do what were really good at.C. We shouldnt let our problems hold us back.D
18、. We should keep learning new things all our life. COur bachelor uncle lived with us, who loved hunting and fishing; and it was one of the pleasures of our young life to go fishing with him.I remember my first fishing experience as if it happened yesterday. I was very excited when I received that fi
19、rst fishing pole from my uncles hand, and went fishing with him. It was a still, sweet day of early summer; the leaves seemed greener, the flowers brighter, the birds merrier, than ever before.My uncle considerately placed me at the most favorable point. I threw out my line as I had so often seen ot
20、hers, and waited anxiously for a bite, moving the bait (鱼饵) in rapid movement on the surface of the water just like the jumps of a frog. Nothing came of it. Try again, said my uncle. Suddenly the bait sank out of sight. Now for it, thought I, here is a fish at last.I made a strong pull, and brought
21、up a tangle of weeds. Again and again I cast out my line with aching arms, and drew it back empty. Try once more, he said, we fishermen must have patience to catch a fish. But remember, boy, he said, with his big smile, never say youve caught a fish until it is on dry ground. Its no use showing off
22、anything until its done.How often since I have been reminded of the fish that I did not catch! When I hear people boasting of a work as yet undone, I will remember the wise caution of my uncle in that particular instance takes the form of a proverb of universal application: NEVER BOAST (吹嘘) OF YOUR
23、FISH BEFORE YOU CATCH HIM.8.

A sweet day of summerB. My first fishing poleC. The way to catch a fishD. The fish I didnt catch D There is
26、 an old saying in Chinese: To do a good job, one must first sharpen ones tools. When it comes to photography, however, its not exactly the case. In this years National Geographic Travel Photo Contest, Greenlandic Winter, a picture by Chinese photographer Chu Weimin, took first place in the cities ca
27、tegory and won the overall grand prize as well. When asked why he chose Upernavik, a small fishing village in Greenland, to take his pictures, Chu described the first time he spotted the village from an airplane. Through my entire flight, I could only see the land, covered by pure white ice and snow
28、. But I suddenly saw a big, warm dot in the far distanceUpernavik, he told National Geographic. The beauty of this tranquil (宁静的) village was beyond my imagination. It was a wow moment for me. This ability to identify a wow moment is what makes a good travel photographer.According to Chu, he was mov
29、ed by Upernaviks blue tint at dusk, the warm yellow light from the windows, and the family of three walking along the snowy street. Although he is a professional photographer, many of Chus Greenland pictures were shot with his phone. This attitude echoes that of Austrian-American photographer Ernest
30、 Haas (1921-1986). Haas told his students that they were too obsessed with cameras to understand the essence of photography. The camera doesnt make a bit of difference, Haas said. All of them can record what you are seeing. But you have to SEE. Perhaps its not just in photography that weve put too m
31、uch emphasis on the role of tools. How many of you are reluctant to start a new sport or learn new software simply because you dont yet have the right outfit (装备) or computer? Its true that sharpened tools make the work easier, hut as reporter Abhilash Pavuluri wrote on Firstpost: In the end, its re
