Whether in sports or school, children often face lots of pressure to succeed and do well, and the school was becoming concerned.“Young people from all walks of life live in a high-pressure environment where they are trying very hard to achieve a level of perfection,” said Sue Bruce, head of personal and social education in the school.“This week at Fettes we have been focusing on one of the most misunderstood parts of success: failure. While we are often scared of failure, it is important to learn that it is only through failing, often many times, that we learn how to succeed. All through the week, we have looked at the experiences of some of the most successful inventors, artists and businessmen, who failed hundreds, if not thousands of times on their journey to success,” read a letter on Fettes Colleges website.To celebrate failure, students were encouraged to try something theyve never done before, like playing an instrument or dancing in front of audiences. A number of students stepped up and tried things that they finally failed in, but they had fun and enjoyed the experience. “The concert was extremely enjoyable, proving that we should always try not to worry about failure and have a go!” read another note on the website. Students were also taught about famous people like J.K. Rowling and Richard Branson who failed many times before they finished what they set out to do.“If they let the fear of failure stop them from doing something, they are actually stopping themselves from learning, developing, and potentially succeeding,”said Bruce.21. What is the purpose of the boarding school to hold “failure week”?A. To get the students involved in social activities. B. To help the students accept and learn from failure.C. To make the students study even harder. D. To teach the students how to get relaxed.22. During the “failure week” the students could do the following things EXCEPT _?A. taking risks B. learning from others experiences C. trying something new D. trying to entertain themselves 23. What can we learn from the passage?A、Many successful people are lucky and achieve success easily.B、Because we are often scared of failure ,we never succeed.C、The fear of failure can stop the students from learning and succeeding.D、The students who failed in trying new things felt depressed.BPicture the scene: You come home after work feeling too exhausted to cook only to find a delicious meal worthy of a Michelin-starred restaurant waiting for you. It sounds like a fantasy, but it could be about to come true thanks to a robot chef developed by British scientists.Those scientists have come up with a set of robotic arms so smart that they are capable of cooking meals all by themselves. The device will be sold from as early as 2017 as part of a purpose-built high-tech kitchen.Scientists at Moley Robotics spent almost 18 years developing the hands. According to its creators, the arms can chop, stir, whisk and baste well enough to recreate almost anything you would care to eat, whether it is a simple home-cooked supper, or a complicated creation designed by a world-class chef. The hands move a little slowly, hovering strangely above the work surface whenever they are not busy, but they imitate human movements closely enough that they can do things such as wiping a spoon on the edge of a pan to prevent drips.Mr Oleynik, who is leading the project, said, “All the things which are possible with the hand are possible here. There is no limitation. A lot of people want to go to Michelin-starred restaurants, but they are quite expensive and may be quite far from the home. This is an opportunity for people to enjoy very good food, and for a reasonable price. ”The only cuisine that is off the robots menu at the moment is sushi, which requires extremely steady pressure and nimble fingers to make, but the team plan to conquer that as well by the time it goes on sale.24. People go to Michelin-starred restaurants in order to_.A. appreciate car tires B. enjoy delicious mealsC. see the new robot chefs D. escape from work25. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. British scientists B. The robot chefs armsC. Cooks at restaurants D. Household wives26. Which kind of food CANT the robot chef cook at present?A. Bread B. Beef C. Sushi D. Sandwich27. What can we infer from the passage?A. Hands of a robot chef can perform exactly like a cook.B. Robot chefs are available at shopping malls.C. Michelin-starred restaurants are suitable for many people.D. It is uncertain when the robot can cook all kinds of food. C A tender woman, or an independent one, which one would you prefer? A recent research shows that most people would choose the latter. This type of woman is called a nhanzi (“tough woman”). Experts believe these characteristics have social and psychological roots among young females in China. Su Haos friends all call her a tough woman, because she can finish tough tasks usually carried out by men. For example, she carries 10-litre water to her dormitory on the 5th floor. “I depend on no one but myself,” she says.According to a recent survey by China Youth Daily, tough women have become rather common in society. Of the 21,265 respondents, 78.5 percent said they are familiar with a tough woman. About 50 percent said they like women with tough characteristics, while less than 29 percent expressed the opposite view.Why are tough women gaining popularity? Shen Meng, a psychological consultant, believes the fierce competition in society is contributing to this trend. “Women are often in a disadvantaged position compared to men,” Shen says. “In order to survive, they have to be independent, strong and tough.” Liu Xiaolin, professor of psychology at Wuhan Mental Health Center, believes tough women are brought up this way. They are often on close relationship with their fathers, who teach their daughters to be brave and decisive,” he says. As a result, these women are more likely to be psychologically healthy and more tolerant to stress, according to Liu.Though Liu believes that this is a good trend, Hu Shenzhi, a psychologist at the Guangdong Sunflower Counseling Center, says the popularity of tough woman indicates an unclear line between gender identities, which can lead to relationship problems. “Some women with characteristics that differ from the traditional female image may have a difficult time finding Mr Right,” he says. “Even if they get married, their manly characteristics might cause family conflicts.28. Which of the followings doesnt belong to the characteristics of a tough woman? A. She is independent of others in daily life. B. She is soft and tender to others.C. She is more tolerant to stress. D. She can solve problems usually for men.29. How many respondents like tough women?A. about 10,600 B. about 16,700 C. 21,265 D. about 6,20030. Why are there more tough women nowadays?A. Because tough women are more lovely.B. Because more women want to be independent.C. Because girls often love fathers more.D. Because of the fierce competition in society.31. What problems may tough women have in their life? A. Its difficult for them to be friends. B. They often suffer gender confusion.C. They may have difficulty with marriage.D. They have different characteristics form traditional female images.DOur “Mommy and Me” time began two years ago. My next-door neighbor and fellow mother, Christie, and I were out in our front yards, watching seven children of age 6 and under ride their bikes up and down. “I wish I could take one of my children out alone,” said Christie.Then we worked out a plan: When Christie takes one of her children out, Ill watch her other three. And when she watches two of mine, Ill take someone out. The children were extremely quick to accept the idea of “Mommy and Me” time. Christies daughter, McKenzie, went first. When she returned, the other children asked her tons of questions. McKenzie was smiling broadly. Christie looked refreshed and happy. “Shes like a different child when theres no one else around,” Christie shared with me quickly. With her mother all to herself, McKenzie didnt have to make an effort to gain attention. Just as Christie had noticed changes in McKenzie, I also discovered something different in each of my children during our alone times. For example, I am always surprised when my daughter, who is seldom close to me, holds my hand frequently. My stuttering（口吃的）son, Tom, doesnt stutter once during our activities since he doesnt have to struggle for a chance to speak. And the other son, Sam, whos always a follower when around other children shines as a leader during our times together.The “Mommy and Me” time allows us to be simply alone and away with each child -talking, sharing, and laughing, which has been the biggest gain. Every child deserves to be an only child at least once in a while. 32. What is the text mainly about? A. The advantage of spending time with one child at a time. B. The experience of the only child being with mother. C. The happy life of two families. D. The basic needs of children.33. Right after McKenzie came back, the other children were _. A. happy B. friendly C. regretful D. curious 34. What is one of the changes the author finds in her children? A. The daughter acts like a leader. B. Sam holds her hand more often. C. Tom has less difficulty in speaking. D. The boys become better followers. 35. The author seems to believe that _. A. having brothers and sisters is fun B. every child needs parents full attention C. its tiring to look after three children D. parents should watch others children第二节 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Throughout the ages and across the world, supernatural stories have come alive in the novels, movies, TV series and songs passed down from one generation to another.
