The retired teacher’s plants were small, but still looked okay, while the insurance agent’s plants were much bigger and greener. One night, there was heavy rain and wind. The next morning, both of the neighbors came out to check on their gardens. The insurance agent saw that his plants had been a mess and were totally destroyed. But the retired teacher’s plants were not damaged at all but stood firm.

26、   We often reach a point in our life when we should be ready for change that will help us unlock our self-improvement power. However, there’s always something staring at us right under our nose but we don’t see it. The only time we think of unlocking our self-improvement power is when everything gets worst.

When do we realize that we need to change diets? When none of our shirts and jeans would fit us. When do we stop eating candies and chocolates? When all of our teeth have fallen off. When do we realize that we need to stop smoking? When our lungs have gone bad. We see the warning signs and signals when things get rough and difficult.

The only time most of us ever learn about unlocking our self-improvement power is when the whole world is falling apart. We think and feel this way because it is not easy to change, but change becomes more painful when we ignore(忽视) it.

Change will happen, like it or hate it. At one point or another, we are all going to finally unlock our self-improvement power not because the world says so, but because we realize it’s for our own good.

Happy people don’t just accept change; they embrace (拥抱) it. Unlocking our self-improvement power means unlocking ourselves out of the box of thought that is just the way we are. It is such a poor excuse for people who fear change.

Jane always tells everyone that she doesn’t have the courage to be around groups of people. She heard her family tell the same things about her to other people. Over the years, that is what Jane has believed. Every time a great crowd come, she steps back and locks herself up in a room. Jane not only believes in her story, but lives it!

Self-improvement may not be everybody’s favorite word, but if we look at things in a different way, we might have greater chances of enjoying the whole process instead of counting the days until we are fully improved. Three sessions in a week at the gym would result in a healthier life. Reading books every day would build up knowledge. And only when we are enjoying the whole process of unlocking our self-improvement power will we realize that we’re beginning to take things light and become happy.

【1】The writer mentions the three questions in Paragraph 2 to show that ________.

A.we learn our lessons when we experience pain

B.we are responsible for the problems we meet

C.life fails us when we get into the wrong way

D.life is a long journey full of ups and downs

【2】What is the key to solving Jane’s problem?

A.She needs to remember why she started.

B.She has to know how to get on with people.

C.She has to realize she is not what she is in her story.

D.She needs to understand the importance of confidence.

【3】The writer probably agrees that ________.

A.the world tells us how to improve ourselves

B.people change when they find it easy to do that

C.welcoming change in life is a drive to become better

D.enjoying the process of self-improvement makes life simpler

【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.Is it important to take things light?

B.Is it necessary to embrace challenges?

C.To hold on to the last moment or to give up?

D.To free ourselves out of the box or to stay in it?

27、   My mother, a Chinese old lady, is very happy with today's life. She always says people are very happy today. In the past, they used light from candles and heated with wood in the fireplace(壁炉).
