2．One of the easiest things in the world is to become a fault-finder．However，life can be （36）greatwhen you are not busy finding fault with it．
Several years ago I （37）receiveda letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry，who described herself as a world-class fault-finder，almost always （38）bothered by things．People were always doing things that annoyed her，and （39）surprisingwas ever good enough．She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends．She became a really （40）boring person．
Unfortunately，it took a horrible accident to change her （41）attitudeHer best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash．What made it almost （42）unnecessary to deal with was that the day before the （43）accident，Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her （44）choice of boyfriends，the way she was living，the way she related to her mother，and various other things she felt she needed to （45）express It wasn't until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became （46）awareof her habit of finding fault．Very quickly，she learned to appreciate life rather than to（47）judge everything so harshly （刻�。甋he was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her（48）lifeas well．
Perhaps most of us aren't as extreme at fault-finding，（49）but when we're honest，we can be sharply （50）critical of the world．I'm not suggesting you （51）ignoreproblems，or that you pretend things are （52）betterthan they are，but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are-（53）atleast most of the time，and especially when it's not a really big （54）deal．
Train yourself to"bite your tongue"，and with a little（55）practice，you'll get really good at letting things go．And when you do，you'll get back your enthusiasm and love for life．

When asked a life lesson he had to learn the hard way，the billionaire said staying up too late is a habit he is still trying to break．‘‘Don't stay up too late even if the book is really exciting．You will regret it in the morning．Pam still working on this problem，"he said．

Many schools across the US hold graduation ceremonies this time of year. In some schools, even 5 and 6-year-olds observe their graduation from kindergarten. And so can older people, much older. Meet 70-year-old Jerry Reid, who just graduated from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. He earned a bachelor’s degree.

Mr. Reid might not look like the average college student; his hair is definitely grayer. But still Jerry Reid’s age is easy to forget, other UVA students know him as one of their own.

Mr. Reid sat into the “Hoo Crew,” a group that cheers loudly for the school at sports events. He also joined a men's group on campus. He sang drinking songs along with many other students. Mr. Reid’s school friends say they can talk to him just about anything.

About a half century ago, in his 20s, Mr. Reid was not in school. Instead, he was racing cars and chasing girls. But he says his friend Bill invited him to UVA parties.

“Bill told me what a terrible life I had unless I came up here and went to school with him,” said Reid.

That was in 1963. Jerry Reid says it took him 48 years to take that advice. In 2011, he entered college. UVA Professor Luke Wright says Mr. Reid influences students. He opened the minds of the young adults. The teacher says Mr. Reid showed them that life does not end at 40. Instead, the 70-year-old college graduate believes that getting older can be the beginning of a dream.

“Remember that path that you left waits for you. It’s there. It’s yours. All you must do is to get out of your own way and get back to it. And, that's exactly what I did,” said Reid.

Mr. Reid says that he and his wife Susan now would take some time off to enjoy his college degree. Then, he’ll return to UVA to begin studying for his graduate degree.

1.Which of the following is true of Mr. Reid?

A. He was laughed at by other students.

B. He was interested in study in his youth.

C. He enlarged the views of young people.

D. He got his graduate degree in 2011.

2.From the third paragraph, we can infer that Mr. Reid was _________.

A. considerateB. independentC. intelligentD. energetic

3.What does Paragraph 6 mainly discuss?

A. How Mr. Reid realizes his dream.

B. What teachers think of Mr. Reid.

C. When Mr. Reid entered college.

D. Why the students likes Mr. Reid.

4.What lesson can we learn from the story of Jerry Reid?

A. It is never too late to learn.

B. Two heads are better than one.

C. Actions speak louder than words.

D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

Those accustomed to browsing through thousands of books in large bookstores may find Japan’s Morioka Shoten a little strange. That’s because this tiny bookstore that is located in Ginza,Tokyo sells only a single book at a time.

Opened in May 2015, Morioka Shoten is the brainchild of Yoshiyuki Morioka. He began his career as a bookstore clerk in Tokyo’s Kanda district before branching out to open his own store. It was here while organizing book reading and signing that he realized that customers usually came into the store with one title in mind. Morioka began to wonder if a store could exist by selling multiple copies of just one single book. In November 2014, he partnered with Masamichi Toyama to establish a unique bookstore with the philosophy of “A Single Room with a Single Book”.

The selections that are picked by Morioka change weekly and vary widely to attract customers with different interests. Recent choices include The True Deceiver, an award-winning Swedish novel by Tove Jansson, Hans Andersen’s Fairy Tales, and a collection of Karl Blossfeldt’s photography of plants. Morioka has also selected books written by a famous Japanese author Mimei Ogawa.

To highlight his only offering, Morioka often uses clever tricks. For example, when selling a book about flowers, the storekeeper decorated his shop with the ones that had been mentioned in the book. He also encourages authors to hold talks and discussions so they can connect with customers. Morioka says his goal is for the customers to experience being inside a book, not just a bookstore.

Risky as the idea might seem, things appear to be going well. The storekeeper says he has sold over 2,100 books. Things can get better given that his bookstore is becoming increasingly popular not just among the locals but also visitors form other countries.

1.Why is Morioka Shoten unique?

A. It is popular with feigners.

B. It sells books of different topics.

C. It is decorated with colorful flowers.

D. It sells various copies of a book in a week.

2.Why does Morioka encourage authors to hold talks?

A. To introduce his bookstore.

B. To advocate his philosophy.

C. To make books better understood.

D. To help readers make more friends.

3.What’s the author’s opinion about the bookstore’s future?

A. Risky B. Promising.

C. Unpredictable. D. Hopeless

South Africa is a multiethnic society encompassing a wide variety of cultures, languages, and religions. It has 11 official languages. If you want to say hello, it's "sawubona" in Zulu, and "hallo" in Afrikaans. Now, South Africa's school children may start using "ni hao" to say hello.

The country's education minister says, the nation is adding the Mandarin language teaching in some schools. Mandarin is the official spoken language of China. That country is a major trading power for South Africa.

A recent agreement between the two nations centers on five areas of cooperation. They include development in basic education, school books and lessons, mathematics and science, teacher training and career education and research.

South Africa officials have not said how much they teaching Mandarin will cost. Troy Martens is an officials with South Africa's Ministry of Basic Education. She says the new partnership is extremely valuable.

A public opinion study last year found that South Africans have mixed feelings about China. The survey showed 46 percent of South Africans do not like the spread of Chinese ideas and customs in their country, the results also showed that 60 percent dislike Chinese music, movies and television.

But Ms Martens said Chinese trade is more important than those feelings. She said it is extremely helpful to learners in South Africa to study Mandarin as well as Chinese culture. And she said not every school will offer Mandarin.

“Now this will not be compulsory, it will not be for every school, and it will not be for every child. But for schools that feel they have the capacity to offer Mandarin as a subject, we think it is a great opportunity for South African learners to be exposed to this international type of language,” said Martens.

Lisette Noonan heads the 80-year-old Pretoria Chinese School in South Africa's capital. The school serves about 500 students from kindergarten to grade 12. Every student studies Mandarin.

Ms Noonan says the school welcomes the new cooperation between South Africa and China. She said it is in the best interests of children to study Mandarin. She said that especially true with China becoming what she called “a huge economic power in the world”
