What’s the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody thinks it’s hard-work, while others may say money, love or luck.
If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically(按字母表的顺序) and use numbers to show each of them, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c… you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98, meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96, while love: 12+15+22+5=54, and luck: 12+21+3+11=47, a small mark. None of these words can give one a full mark. What about money? It can’t, either.
Then what else? Don’t be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude(态度).Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100,a full mark.
Different attitudes lead to(导致) different ways of life. Most times people hope for a better life. It is possible that one will have a change for the better after one changes one’s attitude. When you change your attitude and became friendly to others, you’ll meet more smiling faces to you. In the same way, if you take a positive(积极地)attitude to failure(失败),you’ll find it’s also rewarding(回报) though you may lose something.
58. Of the following words, _________ has the highest mark.
A. knowledge B. hard-work C. luck D. money
59. According to the passage, if you meet with problems, the best way out is to _________. A. ask for help from others B. solve them on your own C. change your attitude D. wait for others to help you 60. According to the writer, attitude _________. A. is being friendly to others
B. is the way of looking at things or doing things C. is a change for the better
D. must cause you to lose something
61. From the passage we can learn that _________.
A. different attitudes come from different ways of life B. attitude can solve every problem in our lives
C. failure sometimes can bring you good if you take a positive attitude D. the word ―attitude‖ has the highest mark of all the English words
D
A new word diaosi has become so popular that we can see it everywhere–from online forums to blogs. Many people call themselves diaosi. However, why is the word so popular that it has become a cultural phenomenon(文化现象)?
In fact, the word first came from Baidu Tiebar of a soccer player called Li Yi. There, fans of Li are called ―yisi‖. They not only talk about soccer but also complain(抱怨)about their lives, work and so on. His fans are known for their impolite and dirty language. So people who read their posts(帖子) gave them the name diaosi. The word diaosi was first made by single(单身), young men. They feel they have dead-end lives. They’re not rich enough, not good-looking, and have difficulty succeeding in the work. They even don’t have rich families and helpful social(社会的) relations for their jobs, and most importantly, proper women to marry(结婚). \-looking. Who will marry me?‖

The diaosi phenomenon shows not just a cultural problem, but a larger social problem. Many diaosi feel they are among the lowest class(阶层) of the society. They even stop trying to improve their lives.
Our country doesn’t offer them a good way to improve themselves at work. ―The pressure of marriage makes them even more worried.‖ Ke Qianting, a professor at Tsinghua University, said. Many of those young men call themselves diaosi, since they can’t find a proper woman to marry. They have a strong feeling of loss.‖

B. young people want to mock themselves as a way to lower stress C. it’s cool to be a diaosi D. both A and B
64. The underlined word ―mock‖ probably means _______ in Chinese. A. 激发 B.嘲笑 C. 鼓励 D.提醒 65. Which of the following is NOT true about diaosi? A. They’re mostly single young people. B. They don’t have a good job.
