When it comes to success in business and success in life, there are few qualities as important as confidence．

People naturally have different levels of confidence．Some have a higher level of confidence than others do, but even those whose confidence is lacking can learn to build their level of confidence and reach their most important goals．Increasing self confidence is one of the most common reasons people give for seeking the help of psychologists and other professionals．

One of the many places where a greater level of confidence is useful is in the workplace． We all know how difficult it can be, for instance, to ask the boss for a raise．This process can be extremely difficult for those who lack confidence in their own abilities．After all, if you are unsure about your own abilities, how will you ever convince your boss that you deserve more money for the work you do?

Even if you are not asking for that big raise, having plenty of confidence in your abilities is important to success．If you are certain of your abilities, chances are that those around you, whether they are your coworkers, your colleagues or your superiors, will see that confidence, and that will help to assure them that you are the best at what you do．

Being thought of as the person to go to, and being seen as an expert in your chosen field, is naturally very important to success on the job．If you can make yourself the person people go to for guidance and advice, you will help to protect yourself from the ever present danger of downsizing（裁员）．After all, if you are a recognized expert at the office, you will be regarded as an indispensable member of the team．

Having a high level of confidence, after all, does not mean overlooking the places where you could improve．Knowing what you do well and where you need help will help you enjoy increased success and confidence．

32．What is the passage mainly about?

    A．The influence of confidence on one's life．

    B．The difference of people's confidence．．

    C．The importance of confidence to success

    D．The judgment on one's confidence．

33．Psychologists and other professionals can offer help to those ______．

    A．who dream to be recognized experts

    B．who expect to give guidance to others

    C．who want to ask the boss for a raise

    D．who think their goals are hard to reach

34．What does the  word "indispensable" in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

    A．outgoing       B．attractive        C．important           D．energetic

35．What message does the author want to convey（传递） in the last paragraph?

    A．To overlook one's disadvantages．

    B．To make full use of one's advantages．

    C．To have great confidence in one's abilities．

    D．To make objective evaluations of one's abilities

As an experienced photo-journalist in Nashville, Tennessee, I was hired by USA Today newspaper to photograph a spinal bifida corrective surgical (脊柱畸形矫正手术)procedure. It was to be performed on a twenty-one week old fetus（胎儿）in uterus（子宫）at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. At that time, in 1999, twenty-one weeks in uterus was the earliest that the surgical team would consider for operation. The worst possible outcome would be that the surgery would cause premature delivery(早产), and no child born earlier than twenty-three weeks had survived.

The tension could be felt in the operating room as the operation began. A typical C-section incision (切口) was made to access the uterus, which was then lifted out and laid at the junction of the mother’s legs. The entire surgical procedure on the child was completed in one hour and thirteen minutes. When it was over, the surgical team breathed a sigh of relief, as did I.

As a doctor asked me whether I had taken some clear photos of the operation, out of the corner of my eye I saw the uterus shake, but no one’s hands were near it. It was shaking from within. Suddenly, an entire arm reached out of the opening, then pulled back until just a little hand was showing. The doctor reached over and lifted the hand, which reacted and squeezed the doctor’s finger. As if testing for strength, the doctor shook the tiny fist. He held firm. I took the picture! Wow! What a precious moment! Later the surgical opening to the uterus was closed and the uterus was then put back into the mother and the C-section opening was closed.

It was ten days before I knew if the picture was even in focus. To ensure the true images before they see them, USA Today requires that film be submitted unprocessed. When the photo editor finally phoned me he said, “It’s the most incredible picture I’ve ever seen.”

67. In 1999, people believed that it was ________.

A. possible for a fetus 21 weeks born to survive

       B. likely for a fetus born 21 weeks to become deformed (畸形的)

       C. right time for a fetus born 21 weeks to receive an operation

       D. risky for a fetus 21 weeks in uterus to receive an operation

68. From the second paragraph, we can see that the surgery was ________.

       A. challenging but successful                        B. demanding and unsuccessful

       C. simple and short                                        D. long-lasting and difficult

69. What can we learn from paragraph 3?

A. The fetus was delivered earlier than expected.                           

B. The doctor put his hands near the uterus so as to shake it.

C. The fetus reached out one hand and reacted to the doctor’s finger.               

D. The doctor shook the fetus’s fist in order to be photographed.

70. From the last paragraph, we know the photo editor was very ________.

A. disappointed           B. satisfied                  C. annoyed                 D. depressed

When you make a mistake, big or small, cherish it like it’s the most precious thing in the world. Because in some ways, it is.

Most of us feel bad when we make mistakes, beat ourselves up about it, feel like failures, get mad at ourselves.

And that’s only natural: most of us have been taught from a young age that mistakes are bad, that we should try to avoid mistakes. We’ve been scolded when we make mistakes—at home, school and work. Maybe not always, but probably enough times to make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction.

Yet without mistakes, we could not learn or grow. If you think about it that way, mistakes should be cherished and celebrated for being one of the most amazing things in the world: they make learning possible; they make growth and improvement possible.

By trial and error—trying things, making mistakes, and learning from those mistakes—we have figured out how to make electric light, to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, to fly.

Mistakes make walking possible for the smallest toddler, make speech possible, make works of genius possible.

Think about how we learn: we don’t just consume information about something and instantly know it or know how to do it. You don’t just read about painting, or writing, or computer programming, or baking, or playing the piano, and know how to do them right away. Instead, you get information about something, from reading or from another person or from observing, then you make mistakes and repeat, making mistakes, learning from those mistakes, until you’ve pretty much learned how to do something. That’s how we learn as babies and toddlers, and how we learn as adults. Mistakes are how we learn to do something new—because if you succeed at something, it’s probably something you already knew how to do. You haven’t really grown much from that success—at most it’s the last step on your journey, not the whole journey. Most of the journey was made up of mistakes, if it’s a good journey.

So if you value learning, if you value growing and improving, then you should value mistakes. They are amazing things that make a world of brilliance possible.

60. Why do most of us feel bad about making mistakes?

   A. Because mistakes make us suffer a lot.

   B. Because it’s a natural part in our life.

   C. Because we’ve been taught so from a young age.

   D. Because mistakes have ruined many people’s careers.

61. According to the passage, what is the right attitude to mistakes?

   A. We should try to avoid making mistakes.

   B. We should owe great inventions mainly to mistakes.

   C. We should treat mistakes as good chances to learn.

   D. We should make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction.

62. The underlined word “toddler” in Paragraph 6 probably means         .

   A. a small child learning to walk       B. a kindergarten child learning to draw

   C. a primary pupil learning to read      D. a school teenager learning to write

63. We can learn from the passage that         .

   A. most of us can really grow from success

   B. growing and improving are based on mistakes

   C. we learn to make mistakes by trial and error

   D. we read about something and know how to do it right away

   Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but there have only been few players who were truly great. How did these players get that way---was it through training and practice, or are great players “born, not made”? First, these players came from places that have had famous stars in the past---players that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate. In the history of soccer, only seven countries have ever won the World Cup---three from South America and four from Western Europe. There has never been a great national team---or a really great player---from North America or from Asia. Second, these players have all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player, as was Pele. Most players begin playing the game at the age of three or four.

Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighborhood---a poor, crowded area where a boy’s dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer(艺人). For example, Liverpool, which produced the Beatles, had one of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a “ball” made of rags(破布). And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall(对着墙壁踢球) in the slums(贫民窟) of Belfast.

All great players have a lot in common, but that doesn’t explain why they are great. Hundreds of boys played in those Brazilian streets, but only one became Pele. The greatest players are born with some unique quality that sets them apart from all the others.

5. According to the writer, which of the following statements is true?

A. Soccer is popular all over the world, but truly great players are few.

B. Millions of people all over the world are playing soccer, but only seven countries have ever had famous stars.

C. Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but only seven countries from South America and Western Europe have ever had great national teams.

D. Soccer is one of the most popular games all over the world, but it seems the least popular in North America and Asia.

6. The world “tricks” at the end of Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.

A. experience      B. cheating         C. skills          D. training

7. The Brazilian streets are mentioned to show that ______.

A. famous soccer players live in slum areas

B. people in poor areas are born with some unique quality

C. children in poor areas start playing football at the age of three or four

D. a great soccer player may be born in a slum area

8. In the last paragraph the statement “…but only one became Pele” shows that ______.

A. Pele is the greatest soccer player

B. the greatest players are born with some unique quality

C. Pele’s birthplace sets him apart from all the others

D. the success of a soccer player has everything to do with the family background

The school has a long and distinguished history, and it is also one of the oldest charities in the country, providing scholarships to pupils and organizing a Charity of the Term.

The curriculum (课程) at King's is based on strong academic roots. It emphasizes and relies upon what is best in traditional independent school education: scholarly excellence supported by a caring and tutorial system, and a wide-ranging curricular programme. However, it is continually adapting and reacting to the changing demands of modern education: new subjects are added, new teaching techniques are adopted, and there is an increasing awareness of the need to provide programmes of study that match individual needs and skills.

The curriculum is divided into three units: the Lower School (Year 9), an introductory year; the Middle School (Years 10 and 11), working to GCSEs; and the Sixth Form (Years 12 and 13), taking AS and A levels.

Full details can be found in: Shell Guide and Handbook; Middle School Academic Guide 2009—2011; Middle School Academic Guide 2010—2012; Sixth Form Guide 2009—2011 and Sixth Form Guide 2010—2012.

Formal and structured educational support, for those who need it, is available at all levels. The well-stocked library is open 7 days and 6 evenings per week. ICT facilities (including the Internet) are available for all and the whole school (studies within the houses as well as classrooms) is extensively networked.

Pupils are offered extensive career advice throughout their time at King's. Almost all go to university, either immediately or following a gap year. The most popular university destinations are Cambridge, Bristol, Nottingham, Durham, Leeds, Oxford, Edinburgh, Manchester, and University College, London.

I grew up in a community called Estepona. I was 16 when one morning, Dad told me I could drive him into a   41   village called Mijas, on condition that I took the car in to be   42  at a nearby garage(修理站). I readily accepted. I drove Dad into Mijas, and   43  to pick him up at 4 pm, then dropped off the car at the   44 . With several hours to spare, I went to a theater.   45  ,when the last movie finished, it was six. I was two hours late!

     I knew Dad would be angry if he   46   I'd been watching movies. So I decided not to tell him the truth. When I  47   there I apologized for being late, and told him I'd   48    as quickly as I could, but that the car had needed some major repairs. I'll never forget the   48   he gave me.

"I’m disappointed you   50   you have to lie to me, Jason." Dad looked at me again. "When you didn't  51   , I called the garage to ask if there were any  52  , and they told me you hadn't yet picked up the car." I felt   53   as I weakly told him the real reason.

I drove behind him, 58    him all the way, but he walked silently.

     Seeing Dad in so much    59 and emotional pain was my most painful experience. However, it was    60    the most successful lesson. I have never lied since.

One answer to the question of land shortage was suggested by an organization some years ago. A city was to be built at sea, housing 30,000 people.

The suggestion was to shape the city like a harbor. The outer wall of the harbor would stand on steel columns resting on the sea bed. Naturally this could only be where the water was fairly shallow. The people would like to live in flats in the fifty-metre high outer wall. The flats would be all face inwards, and would be made of concrete and glass. The glass would be specially made and colored to control the heat and strong light from the sun. The planners called this man-made harbor would be calm. On it would be floating islands carrying more building: a hospital, two theaters, museum, an art exhibition hall and a church. On one of the islands would be a special factory to take the salt out of sea water and turn it into fresh water.

　　People living in the city could move around on small boats driven by electricity, so there would be no air pollution from the burning of gas. There would be platforms outside the man wall for ships bringing supplies. People could also travel to the mainland by motorboat or water plane.

29. What was suggested about the construction of a new city at sea?

   A. The city was to be designed together with a harbour.

   B. The walls around the city would be made of steel and glass.

   C. The buildings of the city would rest on a floating island.

   D. The people would live in tall buildings surrounded by a wall

30. How would fresh water be supplied to the city?

   A. By treating sea water

   B. By getting it from the surrounding islands

   C. By building a small lake of fresh water inside the city

   D. By transporting it from the mainland

31. The suggestion made by the organization is to solve the problem that _______.

   A. there is not enough space for building cities on land

As a little child，I was always plump (胖的)．In college I started blowing up. It got out of control when I went to law school.

I’d made a decision a thousand times：I’m going to lose weight now. But what motivated （激发）me to get serious about it was turning 30. I weighed 414 pounds. I was always tired. Some of my family members have suffered from heart disease, and I was frightened. I also wanted to look better. So after my birthday, I walked into the office of a weight ­loss doctor.

She was very understanding. Her focus was on balanced meals and she wanted me to exercise.

Walking was all I could do at first. I started by walking a few blocks and gradually increased the distance, until one weekend，I heard myself saying，“Wow，this seems pretty easy.” So I started to run.

I was losing nine or ten pounds a month，and I had more energy. I started to think about the New York City Marathon. For years，I watched the runners and thought，“This looks like fun，but I could never do that.” But now I realized that maybe I could. I joined the New York Road Runners. I ran a 10km，then a half ­marathon. I still wasn’t confident I could run a full 26 miles. But I told myself I was going to do it，no matter what.

By my 33rd birthday，I was down to 180 pounds. I started formally training for the marathon. And on the morning of November 1，I stood on the Verrazano Bridge in Staten Island with more than 40,000 other runners，waiting for the event to start.

It was unbelievable to have the audience cheering me on，handing me cups of water. And I crossed the finish line. My friends sprayed (向……喷射) me with beer，as if I’d won the Super Bowl. And at that moment，I knew：If I set my mind to something，nothing is impossible.
