Its always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you make yourself stronger? The simple answer is “You cant.” Look around you. With very few exceptions(例外), either everything you see in your world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something newAnother good thing about mistakes is this: When you are making mistakes, you are learningConsider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadnt failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didnt workFinally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success. Why? Because when all is said and done, you will have tried some numbers of things before you succeedEvery time you make a mistake, you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer. But this all doesnt mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences(后果) of a mistake. However, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits（限度） so that in the event that it doesnt work out the way you want it to, you will be in a normal place to try againWe all have limited time and money so dont blow them all on one problem. Realize that it probably wont be perfect the first time and deal with these resources(资源) properly so you can learn, make corrections, and try it againIf you accept and use your mistakes in this way ,you can make great progress in your business and your careerThere is an old saying that goes, “If youre not making mistakes, youre not trying hard enough.”So go ahead and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And succeed（1）From the second paragraph, we can know that _A . mistakes are unnecessary for developmentB . we are afraid of trying new thingC . its common for people to make mistakesD . mistakes are better than not trying（2）The underlined word “eliminate” means _A . studyB . removeC . acceptD . solve（3）According to the article, one thing you should pay attention to about making mistakes is_A . not making the same mistakesB . accepting the punishment willinglyC . taking consequences into considerationD . trying things out one by one（4）What would the writer probably suggest we say to ourselves when we make a mistake?A . Never mind, I can always try againB . Id better stay out of troubleC . Ok! Now I can learn somethingD . Look at this mess. Anyone would be sad33. （5分）根据短文理解，选择正确答案。The earth moves round the sun, and the moon goes round the earth.

Every day trucks come into a city to collect it. Most rubbish is made up of things we cant eat or use. If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of the city to a dump(垃圾站). Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system. The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs(澡盆) and other places.To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then youd never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal. Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus(腐殖土), which looks like black earth. It is rich with kinds of things that feed plants and help make them grow. （1）You can most probably read the passage in _.A . a history bookB . a TV guideC . a science bookD . a telephone book（2）The underlined word “sewage” in the passage means_.A . 排污B . 染色C . 洗涤D . 吸尘（3）How should we take care of a used metal box according to the passage?A .

Game players can find things such as food and weapons to help them go on with the game.

So, improving memory is important to success in studying. But is there anything that we can do about it? One way might be walking backwards. According to a new study, walking backwards, whether doing it really or just imagining it, can improve the memory in the short term.In the study, 114 volunteers were asked to watch a video. In the video a woman had her bag stolen. Then they answered 20 questions about the details shown in the video. Ten minutes later, the volunteers were divided into three groups. The first two groups were told to move forwards or backwards 10 meters while the third group was asked to stay still on the same point. The researchers found that the backwards-walking group got two more correct answers on average (平均) than the other two groups.This suggests that a relationship between time and space is basic to the way our minds form memories. When we walk backwards, everything we learn becomes strange to us. This forces the brain to think in a different waythe brain needs to match all the things again and changes the focus(关注点), the researcher Christine Weber said. It almost always means that our brain needs to be more active in the short time. Naturally, our short-term memory will be improved.Backward walking also plays an important role in physical health, especially fitness. A study published in Journal of Biomechanics in 2012 found that there is less pain in the knees.Moreover, backward walking, compared to forward walking, is more challenging. It requires you to use muscles(肌肉) and movements that you probably seldom use, making it a perfect way to change your exercise habit for greater fitness gains. At the same time, by making people put in extra effort, it naturally burns more fat and calories.（1）Backward walking can_ according to the passage. A . improve the memory in the long termB . improve the memory in the short termC . cause much more pain in our kneesD . force the brain to think in the same way（2）Which one is the correct order of the following according to the passage? The backwards-walking group got two more correct answers on average.The volunteers answered 20 questions about the details shown in the video The volunteers were divided into 3 groups and 1 group moved backward 10 meters.The volunteers watched a video in which a womans bag was stolen.A . B . C . D . （3）What does the underlines word It in Paragraph 5 refer to_? A . Short-term memoryB . Physical healthC . Forward walkingD . Backward walking（4）In which part of the newspaper can we read this passage? A . Youth VoiceB . Star StoriesC . Our WorldD .
