There are many good qualities (品质) that can benefit you a lot in your life. Among them, the following qualities are the most helpful ones. Have a positive attitude(态度). Life is not always a bed of roses. When you face difficulties, dont lose heart. Do you know what can help you overcome difficulties？ Its your attitude. Cheer up！ Life is like a mirror. When you smile in front of it, it will also smile at you. Keep learning. Maybe you are used to your present life. Every day you have so much work to do that you cant find any time to learn. However, the world around you is changing all the time. Never be satisfied with yourself, or you will fall behind others. Keeping learning can help you get success in the future. Be creative. In the modern world, the students who have creative thinking are needed most. Being creative means coming up with new ideas and having creative imagination. Those who are creative have more choices in their life. Be honest and keep your promise. Honesty is the best policy(原则). Nobody likes a person who tells lies. The one who keeps his words is popular everywhere. As long as you have these qualities mentioned above, you will be excellent and make a difference to the world. Albert Einstein once said, Try not to become a man of success but rather try to become a man of value.（1）From the passage, we know that _can help you overcome difficulties. A . rosesB . attitudeC . mirrorsD . learning（2）The underlined word benefit probably means _in Chinese in this passage. A . 影响B . 补贴C . 有益D . 救济（3）In the writers opinion, there are _qualities that can benefit you most in your life.

The Most Helpful Qualities of a Man24. （5分）七选五A.Never be afraid to giveB.Plan ahead as much as possibleC.Work out your priorities（优先考虑的事）D.Be disciplined(有纪律的) at all timesE.Make sure everything has its placeF.Stick to a scheduleBeing Well-Organized And Getting Things DoneBeing well-organized and getting things done and what we have done is tried to make them as easy to follow as possible to allow you to implement(实施) them immediately. There is no doubt that being organized does make a difference ._It is something that you should do every single day and the best way to approach this is to place things in order of importance. Watching that movie may sound like a good idea, but put that at the bottom of the list and focus on things that influence your work, health, or anything else that is key to your survival(生存)._Next, you should consider trying to plan ahead, so if you know that there is an appointment at a certain location for a certain time, then plan your day around that appointment._Knowing where everything is really will allow you to get more things done as you will waste less time hunting for that object that you require to complete your task. Too much time is wasted hunting for keys or that piece of paper and it also just stresses you out and can upset your pace._Giving tasks to others will always lead to you getting more done, but it is not just a case of picking anybody to do a task. Instead, you need to make sure that they are capable of doing it without running into any problems and that they do have the correct tools to complete the job._Having a schedule will help to force you into completing tasks on time and actually getting more done in the process. The only problem here is that you need to be sensible when working out how long something takes or you will put undue pressure on yourself and this is where mistakes can occur and you will actually then start to get less done.四、 单词拼写 (共1题；共10分)25. （10分）根据所给首字母完成单词, 使短文意思完整通顺。Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness.
