You happened to be in the village. You hid while they looked for you. Will you tell us how you felt when they were looking for you?” Napoleon looked very angry. He called in two of his soldiers.

In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity. Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people. I have taught many children who held the belief that their selfworth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often lifeanddeath affairs. In their singleminded pursuit of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten. However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn't matter because I really didn't try.” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one's selfrespect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve can we discover a new meaning in competition. 【1】What does this passage mainly talk about? A.Competition helps to set up selfrespect. B.Opinions about competition are different among people. C.Competition is harmful to personal quality development. D.Failures are necessary experiences in competition. 【2】The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means ________. A.those who try their best to win B.those who value competition most highly C.those who are against competition most strongly D.those who rely on others most for success 【3】What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a “desire to fail”？ A.One's worth lies in his performance compared with others'. B.One's success in competition needs great efforts. C.One's achievement is determined by his particular skills. D.One's success is based on how hard he has tried. 【4】Which point of view may the author agree to? A.Every effort should be paid back. B.Fear of failure should be removed in competition. C.Winning should be a lifeanddeath matter. D.Competition should be encouraged. |

Sydney's Royal Botanic Gardens are to start a war on gray-headed flying foxes. These super bats have invaded one of Australia’s most famous public spaces. Officials have said the animals are destroying trees and have to move on. These unwanted guests at Sydney’s Royal Botanic Gardens look like tiny foxes with wings. Officials have estimated there are about 11,000 of them living in the picturesque harbor-side park. After inspecting damage to dozens of trees they now believe there are twice as many as previously thought. Branches have been breaking under the weight of these furry invaders and their droppings have been poisoning plants. Help may well be at hand, however, in the shape of the ordinary garbage bin. The gardens’ director Dr. Tim Entwistle hopes the unpleasant sounds of crashing bin lids will agitate the flying foxes and force them to move on. “The way to disturb them is to use noises, so we’ve used the loud noises made by rubbish bins in the past. You can also use speakers as long as you move the noise around, and what we’ll do is have a series of noises, at the beginning and end of the day. What we’ve found in the past is that the flying foxes leave the gardens and go somewhere else,” said Tim. The gray-headed flying fox is Australia’s largest bat. It flies around at night using its eyes and a powerful sense of smell to search for fruit and flowers. Officials at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Sydney have said they’re optimistic the unwelcome colony can be uprooted. If and when the bats do move to other parts of the city they will of course then become someone else’s problem. 【1】According to the passage, Why do people want to get rid of the flying foxes ? A. Because the garden are important public places. B. Because they are polluting the city. C. Because many garbage bins have been damaged by them. D. Because they’re threatening the survival of trees and other plants. 【2】In order to get rid of the flying foxes, what are people doing? A. They are shooting them. B. They are using rubbish containers. C. They are shaking the trees hard. D. They are cutting some trees down. 【3】Which of the following can replace the underlined “agitate” in Paragraph 3? A. Excite B. kill C. disturb D. discourage 【4】What does the writer imply from the last paragraph? A. The bats will still stay in the gardens. B. Some area will have to deal with the bats. C. The grey-headed flying fox often eat trees D. The damage caused by the bats is serious |
