Do you want to be successful in everything you do? If so, then 19 ? Here is an example.
There was a farmer who grew corn all his life. Each year he took his corn to the market. Then each time his corn was chosen as the 20 and won the first prize.
One year, a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something 21 about how he grew it. The farmer offered his seed (种子的) corn to his neighbors.
“How can you share your best seed corn with your neighbors?” the reporter asked. “You know they are taking part in the 22 with you each year.”
“Why, sir,” said the farmer, “didn’t you know? The 23 picks up pollen (花粉) from the corn and moves it quickly from field to field. If my neighbors grow 24 corn, cross-pollination (异化传粉) will influence the quality of my corn. So if I want to grow good corn, I must 25 my neighbors to grow good corn.”
The farmer knows much about the connection of life. His corn cannot improve 26 his neighbors’ corm doesn’t improve.
As a great man says, “We make a living by what we 27 ; we make a life by what we give.” We can’t live without food, clothes and many other things.

三、阅读理解(共26分，每小题2分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
(A)
It’s normal for parents to disagree and argue from time to time. Parents might disagree about money, housework or how to spend their time. They might even disagree about little things that don’t important at all—like what’s for dinner or what time someone gets home.
So, many times when parents disagree, they argue, an argument is a fight using words.
Most kids worry when their argue. Loud voices and angry words can make kids feel afraid, sad or upset. Even silent arguments, like parents not talking to each other at all can upset kids.
What does it mean when parents argue? First, just like kids, when parents get upset, they must cry, shot or say things they really don’t mean to. Sometimes an argument might not mean anything. Second, just like kids, parents might argue more if they are not feeling well, or if they have other worries.
If your parents argue more often, you can talk to someone, like relatives, a teacher or any adult you trust. They can help by telling family members to listen to each other and talk about their feelings without shouting. Though it takes some work, time and practice, people in families can always learn to get along better.
No family is perfect. Even in the happiest ones, things happen and people argue from time to time.
Being part of a family means everyone joins in and tries to make life better for each other. When an argument happens at home, like to your parents and use love and understanding to solve the problems that have come up. Families can solve almost any problem.

An old English saying goes, “Laughter is the best medicine.” One person who certainly would have agreed with this is Norman Cousins.
Norman Cousins was the editor of a magazine called “Saturday Review” for a;most forty years. He also wrote and spoke about world peace and anti-nuclear (反核的) and anti-war issues (问题). And he traveled to many different countries to share his ideas.
In the 1960s, after returning to the United States from a busy and tiring trip to Europe, Mr. Cousins got sick. He discovered he had a rare disease, known as ankylosing spondylitis, which caused the joint between his bones to stiff (僵硬的).
In less than a week after he got sick, he could not stand. Every move that he made was painful. He was not able to sleep at night. The doctors told Mr. Cousins that they did not know how to cure his illness and he might never get over (摆脱) it. Mr. Cousins, however, refused to stop hope.
Mr. Cousins thought that illness could be caused by unhappy thoughts. He did not want to take medicine to cure himself. Instead, he felt that happy thoughts or laughter might cure his illness.
He began to experiment on himself while still in that hospital by watching comedy (喜剧) shows on TV. Mr. Quickly found that ten minutes of real laughter during the day gave him two hours of pain-free (无痛苦的) sleep at night.
Deciding that the doctors could not help him, Mr. Cousins left the hospital and checked into (入住) a hotel room where he could continue his experiments with laughter. For eight days, Mr. Cousins rested in the hotel room watching comedy show on TV, reading amusing books, and sleeping whenever he felt tired. Within three weeks, he felt well enough to take a holiday to Puerto Rico where he began running on the beach for exercise.
After a few months, Mr. Cousins was able to carry on his work. He had laughed himself back to good health.

Idioms (习语) are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say. Even if you know the meaning of each word you see or hear, you may not understand the idiom because you don't understand the culture behind it.
For example, if an American boy asks his mother what's for dinner tomorrow, she may say“I'll play it by ear”, that means she doesn't have plans for dinner and she will decide later.“Play by ear”used to mean playing music using the sheet music, but now people often use it when they're not talking about music.
There are many idioms in English. If you learn to use them, your English will be more vivid and colorful. English idioms are more common in spoken English. They can be difficult to remember sometimes. Next time when you hear somebody saying to you, “Give me a hand”, you don't necessarily stretch out your hand to him/her, but you do need to be helpful. And when the situation is out of hand, you usually can do very little to manage all that. What about a green hand? It's not about the color of your hand! You're a green hand when you are very new at your work and don't have much experience. If you and your partner always work together hand in glove, you two definitely work together very well.
