A
Marvin, a friend of mine, was the kind of guy who was always happy and had something positive to say. Being a natural motivator, Marvin was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation whenever he or she was having a bad day.
Several months ago in his restaurant, Margin was held up at gunpoint by four armed robbers. They panicked and shot him. Luckily, Marvin was found relatively quickly and rushed to the local hospital. After 18 hours of operation and weeks of intensive care, Marvin was recovered with pieces of the bullets(子弹)still in his body.
It is really a miracle(奇迹)for Marvin’s surviving the robbery. When I met Marvin after the terrifying accident, I did ask him what had gone through this mind as the robbery took place. Marvin replied, “as I lay on the floor, I remembered that I had two choices: I could choose to live, or I could choose to die. I declined to choose to die.” Marvin continued, “The nurses kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the emergency room and from the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses I read, ‘He’s a dead man.’ I knew I needed to take action.” “What did you do?” I asked. “Well, there was a big nurse shouting questions at me,” said Marvin. “She asked if I was allergic to anything. ‘Yes’ I replied. The doctors and nurse stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled, ‘Bullets’. Over their laughter I told them, ‘I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead.’”
“Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or to learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining or to point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.” Marvin concluded.
21. What happened to Martin several months ago?
A. He was attacked by terrorists
B. He got shots in a gun battle
C. He met with a car accident
D. He was badly wounded by robbers

A. He couldn’t bear the rudeness of a big nurse
B. The medical staff was not skilled enough to save him
C. He had to encourage the doctors and nurses for the operation
D. He was in danger and had to follow the nurses’ instructions
23. Which of the following would best describe Marvin according to the text?
A. Humorous and optimistic B. Unique and unselfish
C. Positive and cautious D. Outstanding and ambitious
24 We can infer from the text that __________.
A. the doctors were sure about the operation on Marvin
B. Marvin’s survival depends on luck
C. choices mean success

In our life of journey, we each have important roles to play. Some are conductors and some are singers. And the rest are heroes in the supporting cast(配角演员)and are necessary to complete the different tasks in life. The “stars” would be greatly darkened if the individual heroes don’t support their performances. The magical accents of the performance section might sound terrible and out of place, unless you could also hear the music they accompany. Even one member of an orchestra doing less than their best could stop the harmony of the musical piece.
So even though you may not receive the attention of the other performers, your contribution is valuable and a unique part of the success of the whole in the life you lead.
When you do your job well, you put your own unique energy into the task. Each of us has a different personality and a different talent, just suited for the different roles we support. We can look around us at any moment and identify with the people we work with. Doing your job well displays your ability and gratitude, while learning the lessons from others can move us towards our goals.
When you are fully present in the job you do, you bring the fullness of your mind, body, and spirit to the moment. Your contribution is strengthened by your talents and abilities, and they can attract the right people and circumstances to your experience. You are playing your role to your very best. You are giving your best to be the world and making it a better place for all of us to live in. remember, each of us is expected to be the best.
29. What does the first paragraph mainly discuss?

Taktak tabulaba?
You probably don’t know how to answer that question---unless you happen to be one of the about 430 people in the world who speak a language called Matukar Panau. Then you would know it means “What are we doing?” Matukar Panau is one of the world’s rarest languages. It is spoken in just two small coastal villages in Papua New Guinea.
Several years ago, David Harrison, a language expert didn’t know much about Matukar Panau either. No one had ever recorded or even studied its words and rules. With so few speakers, the language risked disappearing soon. It was endangered.
Harrison didn’t want that to happen to Matukar Panau. So in 2009, he set out for Papua New Guinea. His goal: use modern technology to help the remaining speakers preserve their native tongue.
But Matukar Panau is far from the only language facing loss. Studies suggest that by the end of this century, nearly half of the 7,000 languages now spoken worldwide could disappear. They’re in danger partly because the only people left speaking them are elderly adults, Harrison says. When those individuals die, their language will die with them. In addition, children may discard a native language and instead use more common global languages, such as Chinese, English or Spanish.
In the United States alone, 134 native American languages are endangered. Harrison says, “language hotspots” exist all over the world. These are places with endangered languages that haven’t been recorded. They include the state of Oklahoma, pockets of central and eastern Siberia, parts of northern Australia and communities in South America.
32. The purpose of using the question “Taktak tabulaba?” is to _____
A. introduce a new foreign language
B. introduce the topic of the text
C. show the difficulty understanding Matukar Panau
D. stress the importance of Matukar Panau
33. What did Harrison go to PaPua New Guinea for?
A. Learning their native language
B. Leaning their modern technology
C. Helping preserve their endangered tongue
D. Teaching the natives a new language
34. The underline word “discard” in Paragraph 5 means _______.
A. get rid of B. pick up
C. hear of D. learn about
35. The last two paragraphs imply that endangered languages are _________.
A. dying quickly in Siberia
B. popular in some special places
C. becoming a worldwide problem
D. some native tongues
