二、完形填空（本题共10小题，每题1分，共10分）
How often do you let other people’s rude actions change your mood? Do you let a bad driver or an impolite waiter make your day in a mess? However, the mark of your wise reply to the actions is how 16 you can come back to smiling to them Sixteen years ago, I learned this 17 at the back of a taxi in New York.
We were driving fast in the right lane (车道) when suddenly, a black car jumped 18 a parking space right to front of us. My taxi driver stepped on the brake (刹车) as hard as possible, and at the 19 moment our car stopped just one inch from the back of the other car.
I couldn’t believe what happened next. The driver of the car turned his head around and started 20 bad words. But then here’s what really 21 me. My taxi driver just smiled and waved (挥手致意) at the guy. I said, “Why did you just do that? This guy nearly 22 us!” He told me what I now remember “The Law of the Garbage (垃圾)Truck.”
He said, “Like garbage trucks, many people run around full of garbage, full of anger, and full of regret. 23 their garbage increases more and more, they look for a place to pour it. If you let them, they’ll pour it on you. So when someone wants to pour it on you, don’t feel hurt. Just smile, wave, and move on. You will be 24 .”
I started thinking: how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and 25 it to other people? Then I knew clearly what I should do.
I began to see Garbage Trucks. I see the bad mood people are carrying. I see them coming to pour it. And like my taxi driver, I don’t feel hurt. I just smile, wave, and move on。

三、阅读理解。（本题共10小题，每题1分，共10分）
（A）

When people become good at doing the things they like, they have found themselves.
Many young people are good at doing things they do not like. Some young people would like to do something that they are not good at. Also some of them don't think they are good at anything and don't know what they would like to do. None of them are happy.
It is impossible to decide whether one likes something or not until one has tried it. Trying
something new is important.
Give each idea a fair chance. If you have decided to try out something new, also decided how long you will stick to it，then you can make a fair decision.
The best thing to judge isn't the final goal but the work, which makes you reach the goal. Almost everybody would like to be highly skilled in something. But becoming highly skilled in anything calls for a great deal of time and work.
"Finding oneself" means not only discovering what one is good at and what one likes, but also discovering what one isn't good at and one doesn't like.
So trying something and failing can have its good sides. It tells you that you are not fit for that particular field and should not take it as your goal.
( )26. You can't decide whether you like something .
A. after it has been tried B. before you have tried it
C. although you have tried it D. even if you have tried it
( )27. It takes to become good at something.
A. energy and time B. a lot of work and rest
C. a lot of time and work D. time and money
( )28. From the passage we know that to find oneself is .
A. unnecessary B. quite easy
C. important D. natural
( )29. To find oneself has to know .
A. his strong points
B. what he likes and what he is good at
C. his weak points
D. both his strong and weak points
( )30. According to the passage, which of the following statements would the writer NOT agree to?
A. Failing is sometimes necessary.
B. You should try out each idea fairly.
C. You should do what you are good at.
D. To make a fair decision, you can see whether the final goal is good or not.
