26、In her outstanding book, “Choose the Happiness Habit”, Pam Golden wrote, “Take the story of two twin brothers for example. One grew up and became an alcoholic (酒鬼), while the other became a successful businessman. When asked why he became an alcoholic, the alcoholic replied, “Because my father was a drunk.” However, the successful businessman’s answer was also “Because my father was a drunk.” when asked why he succeeded. The same background. The same upbringing (培养). However, the results were quite different. Why? The reason is that they had different choices. The brothers chose different thoughts which formed the situations they found themselves in at last, so they had different experiences.

There was a time in my life when I thought difficulty was due to “bad luck”. Have you ever heard the saying “When it rains, it pours”? That was my answer when others asked me how things were going on when I was in trouble. So what do you think I got? “RAIN”. More and more “RAIN”. I couldn’t understand why bad luck was always with me.

Pam Golden says, “You’re either living in the problem or you’re living in the solution.” Now, when I’m faced with what I used to think was a negative (消极的) situation, I use a different way to think about it. I force myself to replace those negative thoughts that make me lose heart in my mind with positive thoughts which encourage me to fight against the difficulty bravely. Sometimes I write down some ideas that may be a solution, which I combine with the lessons I have learned from the bad situations and the difficulties that troubled me in the past, and often, I find a solution to the problem soon. It seems that I should thank the difficulty I met with. The RAIN that poured in my world has become great experiences that provide me with valuable experience, from which I can benefit.

Now, it doesn’t “rain” as much in my life as it used to. In fact, most days are beautiful, cloudless and sunny! Sometimes I do get a rain, but I think it makes me stronger just like the rain helps plants grow up.

【1】The example of the twin brothers shows that ________.

A. making good choices is the most important

B. education decides a person’s future

C. upbringing makes a big difference

D. it is luck that leads to success

【2】What does “RAIN” mentioned in the second paragraph refer to?

A. Water. B. Good luck.   C. Success. D. Difficulty.

【3】What is talked about in the third paragraph?

A. How the author collects useful experience.

B. How the author deals with difficulty now.

C. How the author gets help from others.

D. How the author lives in the problem.

【4】Which of the following agrees with the author’s attitude now in the text?

A. All things are difficult before they are easy.

B. Meeting with difficulty is not a bad thing.

C. Fortune is what it takes to succeed

D. Things at the worst will mend.

27、I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives (观点) by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.

With this unshakable belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with, or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people’s writing can one discover what works, what doesn’t and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.

Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read fiction (文学作品)．As a law student, my reading is in fact limited to subject matter — the volume (量) of what I have to read for classes every week means there is little time to read anything else. Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life. Reading fiction reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn’t necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.

【1】What can be inferred about the author as a child?

A. He never watched TV.

B. He read what he had to.

C. He found reading unbelievable.

D. He considered reading part of his life.

【2】The underlined word “voice” in the second paragraph most probably means “   ”.

A. an idea B. a sound quality

C. a way of writing   D. a world to write about

【3】 What effect does reading have on the author?

A. It helps him to realize his dream.

B. It opens up a wider world for him.

C. It makes his college life more interesting.

D. It increases his interest in worldwide travel.

【4】Which of the following can be the best title of this text?

A. Why do I read?   B. How do I read?

C. What do I read? D. When do I read?

29、Patagonia, a leading brand in outdoor clothing, is climbing a mountain in the clothing industry and reaching a new summit. Through several measures, the company inspires people to share, resell, repair, and recycle their clothes, producing less waste. Every second, about one garbage truck of used clothes is sent to the landfill (垃圾埋区) or is burned. Patagonia is taking this alarming statistic seriously. They are including a “buy used” choice on their website, offering second-hand clothes alongside their newest designs.

The second-hand trend is here to stay. Other chains such as The North Face, Macy’s, Adidas, Burberry, and Made have also accepted the new circular economy business model. Famous traditional retailers (零售商) are also becoming used clothing providers, and are changing the way second-hand clothes are sold.

Even the most skeptical (怀疑) shoppers are now open to the idea of buying used quality items. As a result, it is no surprise that the total second-hand market is expected to grow to almost twice the size of fast fashion by 2029. Naturally, the most sustainable (可持续的) piece of clothing is the one that already exists. This “green” article of clothing doesn’t require using original resources. Moreover, it prevents used clothes from ending up in landfills, and it requires no plastic packaging.

According to a 2018 report by ThredUP, buying a piece of used clothing expands its life on average by 2.2 years, which reduces its carbon, waste, and water footprint by 73 percent. So even though the development of new materials and processes in fashion seems promising (有前景的), wearing second-hand clothes is the easiest and most immediate way to face the environmental challenges the fashion industry brings.

【1】What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 2?

A．Lots of second-hand clothes are of high quality.

B．The second-hand trend is more commonly accepted.

C．Traditional retailers have a role to play in reducing waste.

D．Shopping attitudes towards second-hand clothes are changing.

【2】What’s the author’s attitude to the future of second-hand market?

A．Skeptical.

B．Unclear.

C．Passive.

D．Optimistic.

【3】What is the biggest advantage of buying used clothing?

A．Keeping pace with fashion.

B．Satisfying shoppers’ needs.

C．Protecting the environment.

D．Lowering economic stress.

【4】What’s the best title for the text?

A．Patagonia Is a Leading Clothing Brand

B．Clothing Waste Influences the Environment

C．Second-hand Clothes Are Facing Challenges

D．Patagonia Is Now Selling Used Clothes
