If so, please remember, for often, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Here is a story to tell you why.One day a little boy decided to dig a hole behind his house after watching a science program. As he was working, a couple of boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “I want to dig a deep hole all the way through the earth!” the boy answered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling him that it was impossible to do it. Then they left.The little boy kept on digging and digging. Suddenly, a few small colorful stones caught his eyes. He collected them and put them into a glass jar (罐) patiently. Humming (哼唱) a song, he went on digging. The jar was full soon. Then he talked to himself calmly and proudly, “Maybe I cant finish digging all the way through the earth, but look at what I have found in the process (过程) of digging!”The boys goal (目标) was too difficult, but it did cause him to go on, in other words, to cause us to keep working!Not every goal will be achieved. Not every job will end up with a success. Not every dream will come true. But when you cant achieve your goal, maybe you can say, “Yes, but look what Ive found along the way! There are so many wonderful things that have come into my life because I tried to do something!” It is in the digging that life is lived.

Life is to find the colorful stones.D . Life is on the way to achieve the goal.11. （10分）阅读理解 If you put your history notes under your pillow and sleep on them the night before an exam, will you do any better in the exam? Most of us have hoped this might help. However, knowledge cant go through the pillow into your brain. But that doesnt mean you cant learn while you are asleep.Scientists arent exactly sure how it works, but they have discovered that the brain can learn things during sleeping hours.In one experiment, researchers gave German speakers some Dutch words to learn. Then, they divide them into three groups. The researchers played the Dutch words for people in Group 1 while they were asleep, without telling these German speakers what they were doing. The sound was low. So it didnt wake them up, and only the newly introduced words were used.Another group listened to the same words while they were awake. The researchers found the people in Group 1 were better able to identify and translate the words later. This was true only for the words that were played while they slept. The third group listened to words when they walked. The walkers didnt have the same success remembering the words as the sleeping group.The researchers later found that people had more slow wave(慢波的) brain activity all over the night. They said that more slow waves made people have a better memory for the new words.（1）When did the researchers play foreign words for people in Group 1 in the experiment? A . Before they went for a walk.B . Before they went to bed.C . When they were asleep.D . When they were having dinner.（2）What does the underlined word identify mean in Chinese? A . 提高B . 辨认出C . 隐藏D . 逃避（3）The last two paragraphs tell us the experiments A . resultsB . reasonsC . influenceD . purpose（4）Which of the following is TRUE? A . Scientists think people cant learn during sleeping hours.B . German speakers enjoy learning Dutch words.C . Slow-wave brain activity can help people have a good sleep.D . People in Group 3 didnt remember the words as well as those in Group 1.（5）Where is the passage most probably from? A . A history textbook.B . A science magazine.C . A travel newspaper.D . A modern novel.四、 、单词拼写，根据下列句子中所给汉语注释，写出空缺处各单词的正 (共5题；共5分)12. （1分）The basketball players are from_(俄国). 13. （1分）The Greens have fun _(准备) food and drinks for childrens Day. 14. （1分）Nobody taught Ms Rice to swimShe learned it by h_15. （1分）The fruit looks very _(新鲜的). 16. （1分）There are _(百)of ducks in the lake. 五、 短文改错 (共1题；共5分)17. （5分）下面句子中划线部分是错误的，请改造。（不得改变原文意思）Today is grandma birthday.My parents and me go to see her.
