Dear Mike,
Knowing from your letter that your class team lose the basketball game last week and you have been feeling rather depressing, I am writing to cheer you up.
Everybody loses sometimes, and that doesn’t mean they will never win. I know your feeling now, but hopeful, you can take it easy. In your life you can’t avoid failure, but it is your attitude towards failure really counts. Cherish failure, as it makes me stronger and wiser.
I advise you communicate to your teammates and reflect on this game, finding your problems, making adjustments and train harder. With determination and hard works, you will win in the time.
Yours,
Li Hua

The next day was Saturday. Rob happened to look out of the window and said in_______, “There are the boys who_________ me up!” Two older boys were standing in front of our ____________, as if they were waiting for Rob to step outside.
My wife Bev opened the door and said with a smile, “Hi guys. Would you like some ice cream?” They looked at each other in__________. But they were teenagers after all, so one of them said, “Sure. Why not?”
Bev quickly introduced herself, Rob’s younger brothers and me. She even introduced Rusty, the__________. “And I think you’ve already ____________ Rob,” she said. Her idea was to help them to see that Rob was a person, not a target. He had a family and____________ owned a family pet.

Have you ever picked a job based on the fact that you were good at it, but later found it made you feel very uncomfortable over time? If you don’t know about your personality, it will hurt you in the long term regardless of your skills or the job’s pay. There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job. 1.
Do you prefer working alone or with other people?
There are isolating jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy. 2. Most people are not extremes in either direction. But they do have a tendency that they prefer. There are also positions that are sometimes a combination of the two. This may be the best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation.
How do you handle changes?
Most jobs these days have some elements of changes to them, but some are more than others. If you need stability(稳定) in your life, you may need a job where the changes don’t happen so often. 3.
What type of work environment do you enjoy？
This can range from being in a large building with a lot of people you won’t know immediately to a smaller setting where you’ll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly.
4.
Some people are motivated(激励) by the pay they get, while others feel too stressed to be like that. The variety of payment designs in the sales industry is a typical example for this.
5. I’ve seen it over and over again with people that they make more money over time when they do something they love. Finding out about your personality may take you a little longer, but making a move to do what you have a passion for can change the course of your life for the better.
A.How do you like to get paid?
B.Here are a few of those main areas.
C.But other people might be bored with the same daily routine(常规事务).
D.How will you be motivated?
E.There are also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy.
F.Most people are not extreme in choosing a job.
G.All in all, knowing yourself is a great starting point for you.

Picking pineapples can be hard, heavy work often with little reward. The price paid for each individual fruit is a small part of a penny.
The leaves from pineapple plants are usually thrown away. A use for them has now been found, turning the leaves into fabric, which provides some extra income for workers.
“I think everybody is quite surprised that the fabric is made of pineapple, because it doesn’t smell like pineapple, it’s not spiky, it’s got a nice texture( 质地) to it. So it’s quite an unusual thing to be working with. ” said Ben Patton, designer for Material Products.
To make the fabric, fibers are extracted(提取) from the leaves. These get sent from the Philippines to Spain.
Once there, machinists complete the process of turning them into a material which has been named ‘Pinatex’.
An online shop based in Cambridge has begun using Pinatex to create handbags, satchels and purses.
And these are the finished bags. If you want one, they’ll charge you around 137 pounds. The texture is slightly crinkled – not too different to some leathers.
As manufacturers become more confident using the material, it’s hoped that more items will be made out of it in the future, making use of pineapple leaves that were otherwise destined to be wasted.
1.What is the function of the first paragraph?
A.Giving the main idea. B.Bringing in the topic.
C.Raising the problem. D.Introducing the background.
2.Why are Ben Patton’s words quoted here?
A.To show that the pineapple is a useful fruit.
B.To show that pineapple leaves are comfortable to feel.
C.To show that the new material is surprisingly good.
D.To show that the product is profitable.
3.What does the underlined word “fabric” in the fourth paragraph mean?
A.Cloth. B.Leather. C.Bag. D.Money.
4.What is the writer’s attitude towards this use of pineapple leaves?
A.Favorable. B.Negative. C.Concerned. D.Doubtful.
