He 35 and asked how I was doing.I told him about my problems.After we talked through the experiment,he said,“I think it's time to go home and get some 36 .”“Taking a break is also hard work,you know,”he added with a smile.
Those words 37 my eyes.I no longer overworked myself in the lab.I felt less stressed and my research started to progress.
A few years later,my professor and I were discussing an age-old problem at a cafe.As he finished his coffee,he said,“We need to work 38 ,not harder.”I felt kind of surprised.I had never heard my professor say 39 like this.
Our conversation that day helped me understand that exciting ideas 40 come from a mind under pressure.My best ideas almost always come after I have allowed my mind to 41 whether
that's cooking a nice dinner or going on long hikes with my brother.Part of working smarter,I realized,can be taking a break.

Widow(寡妇)Douglas sent me to school every day.I didn't like going there at first because learning was very difficult.But when I could read and write a bit,I didn't mind going to school.
The hardest things for me were eating my meals at the table and sleeping in a soft bed.I missed my old life.Sometimes I ran away and spent a few days in the forest.I felt free there and I was happy.I fished and hunted all day.At night,I slept under the stars.
The months passed and winter came.The weather got cold.One morning,I woke up and there was snow on the ground.On my way to school,I saw some footprints outside the widow's house.There was a cross on the heel(脚后跟)of the left one.My heart jumped.Only one person wore boots with a cross on the left heel!Pap!
“He’s heard about my money，”I thought.“And he wants it!”
That night I went to see Jim.Jim had a magic ball made of animal hair.There was a spirit(精灵)inside the ball that could answer people's questions about the future.
“I have two questions，Jim，”I said.“What is Pap going to do?And is Pap going to stay?”Jim whispered to the ball and rolled it on the floor.Then he put his ear next to it and listened.
“Your father doesn’t know what he＇s going to do yet，”Jim said.“Maybe he’ll stay or maybe he’ll go.”
I picked up my candle and went back to the house.I crept up(蹑手蹑脚)the stairs because it was late and I didn’t want to wake Widow Douglas up.The door of my bedroom was open.I went in.A man with dirty black hair and a long black beard(络腮胡子)was sitting on the bed..It was Pap.I looked at him and he looked at me.Neither of us spoke for several minutes.Then he said,“Where did you get those new clothes?”

Success is often thought to be the opposite of failure.To teenagers,it is the achievement of a goal or the completion(完成)of something they really need,such as good grades and the ability to get along well with their classmates.Some schools used to agree with most parents who measured(判定)the success of their children according to grades,but now they pay special attention to moral(道德的)education and character-building to make sure teenagers achieve success in building human relationships.
Schools give chances to students to discover their hidden ability so that they can enjoy some form of success.For example,those good at speaking skills are advised to take part in speech competitions while those interested in arts are expected to perform in front of their classmates.
Teenagers also get the pleasure of success when they join their favorite clubs.
Teenagers are often told that success is not easy to achieve and that success depends on hard work.Great efforts have to be put into project work.Doing things much later than planned should be avoided as this will lead to a mountain of work which finally makes them nervous.Another good quality(品质)is a sense of responsibility(责任)which makes them remember that a task has to be completed.
Sticking to moral values is the key to success too.Honest teenagers will win the trust of friends leading to good relationships..Self-motivation(自我激励)is another quality to be developed，for self-motivated teenagers will have the strong will and drive to perform a task and finally get to enjoy a sense of achievement.
49.Why are students given chances to take part in activities?
A.To get good grades B.To improve speaking ability.
C.To express their love for arts. D.To get the pleasure of success.
50.What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A.Project work makes teenagers nervous. B.Good qualities will lead to a happy life
C.Teenagers are advised to complete tasks in time.
D.Taking responsibility will make work much easier.
51.What is important to make students strong-minded?
A.Honesty. B.Self-motivation. C.Communication. D.Friends'trust.
52.What can be the best title for the text?
A.The Value of Moral Education B.The Key to Discovering Hidden Ability
C.The Meaning of Success to Teenagers D.The Way to Communicate with Others
五、六选四阅读（共4小题：每小题1.5分，满分6分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项（选项中有两项为多余选项)。
Brainstorming(头脑风暴)is the practice of coming up with ideas or solutions(解决方案).There’s no correct way to brainstorm.But we do have some rules to follow for successful brainstorming.
Pay more attention to quantity()than quality.When it comes to brainstorming,the more ideas,the better.Don't worry about the quality of your ideas for now.53. ▲ A Remember that your goal is to come up with as many ideas as possible.Even if none of them are perfect,you'll still have many creative ideas to use for your final plan.
Encourage big or unusual ideas.54. ▲ Although unusual ideas may not be immediately practical,just creating those ideas gives your brain training.It can also help to produce creative solutions that are hard to come up with.
55. ▲ Don't say no to the ideas of others.You can put together the best parts of different ideas to create new,even better ones.Even if you're not brainstorming as a group,you should still think about sharing your ideas with others and asking them for their advice.
You don't have to regard yourself as a very creative person to come up with excellent ideas and solutions at once.56. ▲ Even if you don't find the perfect solution,just practicing it can help to improve your creativity.Put these tips together and you are sure to come up with some great ideas.

听第一篇短文，回答第13～15小题。请根据短文内容, 选择正确答案，完成信息记录表。
Dear Paul,
Thank you for your email. I hope I can help you.
You said your best friend Sam broke your favorite model plane, a gift from your cousin. And you were angry about it. I think if the model plane was broken on purpose, you should rethink your relationship with Sam. But if he broke it by accident and felt sorry, you should excuse him. Keeping a strong friendship can be more valuable than a model, right? Also you can try to get the model fixed. It may be as good as new then. So don’t worry too much.
I hope you think my advice is worth taking.
Best wishes!
Justin Miller
