第一节 (共 10 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 25 分)
A
I’ve often wondered if I might do more good as a travel agent rather than as a psychologist. It
seems that I have been more dramatically affected by certain kinds of travel experiences than I
ever have.
My trip to Iceland is a fine example of that. The plan was to spend two days in a remote
mountain hut in Iceland. I was working on a photographic book about winter in Iceland and
needed to capture images of this amazing region of high mountain peaks, smoky volcanoes, and
lakes with floating icebergs.
The moment after we arrived, the weather turned extreme making visibility impossible. It
snowed so much and the wind blew so hard that we couldn’t leave the tiny hut. To stay warm, we
walked around in circles much of the day inside the tiny hut. We tried to call for help but the radio
did not work. Day after day, we watched our supplies of food and fuel grow dangerously short. We
got acute cabin fever (幽居病) and started going for walks and ski expeditions outside. Even when
the weather finally broke, nobody came to get us even though it was three days beyond our
scheduled pickup. By the time the rescue team came to pull us out, we had all given up hope.
From then on, the world looks different to me, as does my life. It would have taken me years
of psychotherapy to get to the same point.
Almost everyone has a story to tell, and interestingly, most of these experiences were not
altogether pleasant at the time. In fact, it appears that the most constructive life-changing journeys
were those that involved some sorts of awful and uncomfortable events that forced the person to
develop new resources, increase confidence, and solve problems in new ways.

How I Turned to Be Optimistic
I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt's
house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then.
I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I
could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which
I listened every morning.
I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little
when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about
all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books
and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.
The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not 3
come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in
three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be.
Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my
stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times”.
My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone
else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers,
took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with
company representatives.
From my experiences I have learned one important rule : almost all common troubles
eventually go away!Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up,
and just wait a little!I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that
easy.
8.How did the author get to know America?
A. From her relatives. B. From her mother.
C. From books and pictures. D. From radio programs.
9.Upon leaving for America the author felt ________.
A. confuse B. excited C. worried D. amazed
10. For the first two years in New York, the author ________.
A. often lost her way B. did not think about her future
C. studied in three different schools D. got on well with her stepfather
第二节 七选五(共 5 小题,每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)。
Lots of people give you advice on overcoming (克服) fear. 11 . However, I want to tell
you that a world without fear would be more dangerous, less rewarding. So we want to treat fear
as a friend? Here are three reasons.
12 Think about it. Do you get more nervous when you meet the girl (or guy) of your
dreams? Which is more fearful, talking to the boss of your company or to some of your friends?
13 If you didn’t have fear to guide you, you might not know that! Not so bad, right?
Next, fear encourages us to take action. Fear is a call to action. In the past, our ancestors
(祖先) didn’t run away in fear when they saw a tiger running toward them but tried to kill it for
food. Now, most of us don’t face serious danger like hungry tigers every day, but we do face
serious bosses or public speaking. So, what can we do? 14
Lastly, fear lets you know you are alive. Why do we like roller coasters (过山车)? 15
Same for horror movies.
So fear can guide you towards what’s important for you and encourage you to take action to
improve. Don’t we all need that kind of friend?
A. Don’t fear to be wrong.
B. It frightens us in a mostly safe way.
C. Imagine what life would be like without fear.
D. The first is that fear is an excellent guide to opportunity.
E. They say if you can overcome fear, you will be successful.
F. Let fear provide us with the energy to do what needs to be done.
G. Fear is showing you what is important and what matters to you.
