When I was seven years old, my family made me an ant farm. First, we put clean sand in a thin glass box. Then we waited for the ants to arrive.
After the ants were on the glass farm, they started to make tunnels(地道). I was amazed that each one knew exactly what to do. Each had its own job.
On the fifth day, a tragedy(悲剧) happened. I put my face so close to the glass farm that I knocked it over. All the tunnels fell down. Although the ants remained alive after their earthquake, one by one they began to die. I was scared as I watched them give up building their tunnels and carry the bodies to a corner of the farm.
My mother said that the ants were dying of sadness. They simply could not stand that their tunnels were gone.
Although much time has passed, I still think of that ant farm. Mom had hoped it would teach me about the natural world, but it taught me much more.
Over the years, I came to realize the importance of teamwork. Working together, the ants were able to make an amazing world for themselves. I also learned that they should be admired for their hard work.
But there was an even larger lesson that I did not realize until recently:Adversity(逆境)is a natural part of life, and must be accepted. Unlike the ants, we cannot give up when we are sad. We have to realize that if a tunnel is gone, we must build another.
Giving up, I say, is not a good choice.

　　A kind of little cars may take the place of today’s big ones many years later. If everyone drives such cars in the future, there will be less pollution in the air. There will also be more space for parking in cities, and the streets will be less crowded.

二、任务型阅读
　　Many people may enjoy traveling by air, but few like airline food. Airlines have always tried to improve the quality of the food and the taste of the food in order to attract more travelers.　1　According to some recent scientific research, a part of the reason is that at high altitude(海拔), we can’t actually taste things well as we do on the ground. 
Scientists have found that even before a plane takes off,　2　As the plane climbs, the air pressure changes and our noses become more and more senseless. When the plane goes 35,000 feet high,　3　They help explain why the tomato juice on airplanes tastes far less sour in the air than it does down on the ground. 　4　Otherwise, the food would be tasteless. Astronauts also have to do with this problem on their journeys for similar reasons.　5　The studies are going on! We are looking forward to any improvement. 
根据材料内容,从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项,使短文意思通顺、内容完整。
A.the nose no longer knows just like being bitten(咬)by a snake.

E.It also helps to explain why airlines like to have salty and spicy(辛辣的)food better.

I learned this lesson from a(n) 　1　many years ago. I took the head coaching job at a school in Baxley, Georgia. It was a small school with a 　2　football program. 
It was a tradition for the school’s old team to play 　3　 the new team at the end of spring practice. The old team had no coach, and they didn’t even practice to prepare for the game. Being the coach of the new team, I was excited 　4　I knew we were going to win, but to my disappointment we failed. I couldn’t believe I had got into 　5　a situation. Thinking hard about it, I came to 　6　that my team might not be the number one team in Georgia, but they were 　7　 me. I had to change my attitude about their ability and potential(潜力). 
I started doing anything I could to help them build a little 　8　. Most importantly, I began to treat them like 　9　. That summer, when the other teams enjoyed their 　10　, we met every day and practiced passing and kicking the football. 
Six months after suffering our failure on the spring practice field, we won our first game and our second, and continued to 　11　. Finally, we faced the number one team on the field. I felt that it would be a victory for us even if we lost the game. But that wasn’t what happened. My boys beat the best team in Georgia, giving me the greatest 　12　of my life! 
From the experience I learnt a lot about 　13　the attitude of the leader can influence the members of a team. Instead of seeing my boys as losers, I pushed and 　14　them. I helped them to see themselves 　15　, and they built themselves into winners.

A new term has begun. This year may be your busiest school year 　1　 you entered the junior high school because you are preparing for important exams. 
Good study habits will help you make full use of your time.
Here is some good advice.
