We all pass in different life problems and challenges. No one is free of life problems. Only a dead man faces no problem. As long as you are alive, challenges are everywhere. How do you face problems and challenges in your life? Problems and challenges are the building blocks of your personality. They make you who you are. Besides, whether what happened in your life builds or destructs you, depends on how you look at it. If you take your problems as troubles, they will be troubles and may cause destruction. If you take them as constructive tools, you are going to be built up on them. Problems are everywhere. No one can avoid them. And they are good too. They open up a different look and opportunity if you are willing to see. When you face troubles, do not frustrate or freak out. Just cool yourself to think in a different direction. Think in a positive way. Every problem has its own good as well as bad sides. Focus on the good one. Look at the bright side. Besides, there is always a good person, perhaps your mom or dad, or one of your friends, right beside you who can turn everything into your best if you are willing to turn to them. No matter what happens, they will be there to help you. Trust them and they will never let you down. All you need to know is that you are loved wherever you are. 24.

According to the last paragraph, when were in trouble, we _.A. can only depend on our parents B. should only believe ourselvesC. are not alone D. are not confident27. Whats the writers purpose to write the passage?A. To prove. B. To pare. C. To encourage.D. To explain. CWhen nature is left alone, a balance is reached among the animals and plants living in one area. But when man starts his work in nature, the balance is likely to be destroyed. He grows a crop and takes it away to eat; then there are no dead leaves to fall on the ground, holding water while it sinks into the surface, or decaying(腐烂) and adding humus(腐殖质) to the soil. Unless a farmer acts with knowledge and skill, he is therefore most likely to make the land poorer. To take the place of the useful matter in the crops that he removes, he uses some kind of fertilizer. Chemical fertilizers are of great help, but the waste products of animals and decaying remains of plants should also be put on the land. In some places, it is a habit to burn waste material lying about, but such burning destroys the useful matter in the dead plants. Although the ashes that are left are valuable when put on the land, a better practice is to bury the waste so that it decays and increases the humus in the soil.In the past, when the world population was much lower than it is now, a man had little difficulty in ordinary times in growing the food that was needed. When a field had been used some years and had bee tired, the farmer could move to another place. The tired land then slowly recovered. Gradually grasses and other plants would appear on it and its productive power would slowly return to normal through their decay. But nature, left alone, would take a long time to bring back the land to its former state; the length of time required would depend on local conditions, but it might well be ten years. It is a bad practice to grow the same crop in a field year after year. If the crop is changed, the land will suffer less because it is treated and used in a different way. Different plants have different effects on the soil. Therefore, a change of crop will do less harm than the growing of the same crop year after year and a regular change to grass will do good to the soil. Much will therefore be gained if different crops are grown one after another, a method known as the rotation(轮作) of crops.28. According to the passage, the land will bee poorer, _.A. if the humus is increased after the harvest B. if all the dead leaves are cleared away C. if dead leaves decay in the soil by themselves D. if waste plant material lying about is buried 29. We can learn from the passage that the tired land has gradually recovered _.A. after new grasses and other plants have decayed againB. after nature has been left alone for several months C. when grasses and other plants appear againD. when the treatment is given by nature alone30. A modern farmer can hardly move to another place as he did before because _.A. the productive power of a new field isnt higher than that of an old oneB. there will be too many grasses in a new field to grow cropsC. it takes a farmer more than ten years to start farming in a new fieldD. there are few free fields left for him to do farming31. It is most likely that the author will go on to _ in the paragraph following the passage above.A. introduce other methods of planting crops B. deal with how to prevent land getting tiredC. further explain what the rotation of crops isD. start another topic of how to make use of landDbining families with kids can be tough and offers even more unexpected problems. You just dont know how things will shake out until everyone is under one roof, trying on new roles with name that start with “step”(继). This is what happened to Sheila and Will, and Sheilas 8-year-old daughter Ashley. After the couple got married, and Will became the member of the new family, things got worse than expected. How did they make it work? Read the full version of the story here.Shelias Turn: When Shelia and Will were dating, he seemed to like kids, especially Ashley. Hed bring her presents, and play games with her. But after the wedding, things took a turn. Will suddenly became a super strict stepfather, scolding Ashley for watching too much cartoons, constantly picking fights and punishing her for offenses as small as spilling milk. Shelias thought about leaving Will, but soon after they married, they had a son, Billy. Will adores his well-behaved boy, but Ashley hates him. Shelia doesnt know what to do- her daughter is miserable, but leaving her husband might mean losing her son.Wills turn: Will was so excited to be a male role model in Ashleys life. He didnt just want to be a guy living in her house; he wanted to treat her like his own daughter, which, to Will, meant giving Ashley more rules and help her learn responsibility. Hed always felt that Shelia let Ashley loose on everything. But after the wedding, Will was surprised that Shelia didnt want him to do that. If Will takes away Ashleys TV privileges or tells her to clean up her room, Shelia just lets Ashley do what she likes and does it herself. Will was tired of this and hed rather take his son and go. The advisors turn: The counselor(顾问) quickly recognized their conflict as a classic case of unspoken, hidden expectations. Before the wedding, when it was just Shelia and Will, everything was easy. But now, everyone in their big family is peting for attention, and the couple never sat down and discussed the biggest issue-their child-upbringing philosophies(育儿经). The counselor suggested Shelia allow Will to give some rules on Ashley but Wills punishments couldnt be extreme. Once Ashley saw that her mom and step-dad had bee a united front, she cooperated more.32. The text is most likely to be found in a book about_.A. popular science B. social problems C. historical events D. political systems 33. The reasons for Ashleys dislike of Will are as follows except_.A. Ashley often spilled milk on the floor. B. Will often picked fights with Ashley.C. Ashley was stopped watching too many cartoons.D. Will always punished her for bad behaviors.34. What can we know about Will?A. Will does not love children B. Wills way of parenting is very perfect.C. Will does not love Shelia any more D. Will has a good intention.35. It can be inferred from the passage that the advisors attitude to their problem is_ ?A. Negative B. Objective C. Critical D.

This brief visit with Mother Nature cost me two days off from work, recovering from a bad case of sunburn and the doctors bill for my sons food poisoning.I was, nevertheless, talked into going on another fun-filled holiday in the wilderness. 38 Instead, we had a pop-up camper with fortable beds and an air conditioner. My nature-loving friends had remembered to bring all the necessities of life. 39 We have done a lot of it since. Recently, we bought a twenty-eight-foot travel trailer plete with a bathroom and a built-in TV set. There is a separate bedroom, a modern kitchen with a refrigerator. The trailer even has matching carpet and curtains. 40 It must be true that sooner or later, everyone finds his or her way back to nature. I remend that you find your way in style.A.
