My mom was one of those people.My father died when I was nine months old, making my mom a single mother at the age of eighteen. While I was growing up, we lived a very hard life. We had little money, but my mom gave me a lot of love. Each night, she sat me on her lap and spoke the words that would change my life, “Kemmons, you are certain to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work hard enough to get it.” At fourteen, I was hit by a car and the doctors said I would never walk again. Every day, my mother spoke to me in her gentle, loving voice, telling me that no matter what those doctors said, I could walk again if I wanted to badly enough. She drove that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her. A year later, I returned to school walking on my own!When the Great Depression (大蕭條) hit, my mom lost her job. Then I left school to support the both of us. At that moment, I was determined never to be poor again.Over the years, I experienced various levels of business success. But the real turning point occurred on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951. I was dissatisfied with the second-class hotels available for families and was angry that they charged an extra $2 for each child. That was too expensive for the average American family. I told my wife that I was going to open a motel (汽車旅館) for families that would never charge extra for children. There were plenty of doubters at that time.Not surprisingly, mom was one of my strongest supporters. She worked behind the desk and even designed the room style. As in any business, we experienced a lot of challenges. But with my mothers words deeply rooted in my soul, I never doubted we would succeed. Fifteen years later, we had the largest hotel system in the world Holiday Inn. In 1979 my company had 1, 759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income of $ 1 billion a year.You may not have started out life in the best situation.

CAn increase in students applying to study economics at university is being attributed to (歸因于)the global economic crisis (危機) awakening a public thirst for knowledge about how the financial system works.Applications for degree courses beginning this autumn were up by 15% this January, according to UCAS, the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service. A spokesman for the Royal Economic Society said applications to do economics at A-level were also up.Professor John Beath, the president of the society and a leading lecturer at St Andrews University, said his first-year lectures-which are open to students from all departments-were drawing crowds of 400, rather than the usual 250.“There are a large number of students who are not economics majors, who would like to learn something about it. One of the things I have done this year is to relate my teaching to contemporary events in a way that one hasnt traditionally done.” He said.University applications rose 7% last year, but there were rises above average in several subjects. Nursing saw a 15% jump, with peoples renewed interest in careers in the public sector(部門), which are seen as more secure in economic crisis.A recent study showed almost two thirds of parents believed schools should do more to teach pupils about financial matters, and almost half said their children had asked them what was going on, although a minority of parents felt they did not understand it themselves well enough to explain.Zack Hocking, the head of Child Trust Funds, said: “Its possible that one good thing to arise from the downturn will be a generation thats financially wiser and better equipped to manage their money through times of economic uncertainty.”46.

Parents are concerned with childrens subject selection. DDo you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness, happiness, goodness, and self- respect? The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized as "honor" help you create this life of good feelings.Heres an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent, and profit from the clerks mistake, we would drive home with a sense of sneaky excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness?In the first case, where we dont tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen. Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect. We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends. We damage our own reputations by telling others. In contrast, bringing the error to the clerks attention causes different things to happen. Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable. Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased. Whenever we take honorable action we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions. Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence. And its easy to think and act honorably again when were happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once its started, its easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind, which is important for our happiness.51. According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our_.A. self-respect B. financial rewards C. advertising ability D. friendly relationship52. The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to_.A. lying B. stealing C. cheating D. advertising53. The phrase "bringing the error to the clerks attention" (in para. 5) means_.A. telling the truth to the clerk B. offering advice to the clerkC. asking the clerk to be more attentive D. reminding the clerk of the charged item54. How will we feel if we let the clerk know her mistake?A. Well be very excited. B. Well feel unfortunate.C. Well have a sense of honor. D. Well feel sorry for the clerk.55. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage.A. How to Live Truthfully B. Importance of PeacefulnessC. Ways of Gaining Self-respect D. Happiness through Honorable Actions第II卷第三部分寫作(共兩節(jié)，滿分35分)第一節(jié)： 閱讀表達（共5小題； 每小題2分， 滿分10分）閱讀短文， 按照題目要求用英語回答問題。 When my friends went to college in great delight, I restarted my senior high school lifeMy spirit sankSurrounded by strange classmates, I felt like I was in a maze and was sorry about myselfThere were some complex feelings in my mindsI was frightened, nervous and lonely To make matters worse, I recalled my failure again and again, which put more pressure on me than I could bearAs a result, I was always feeling down during class time My teacher found me spiritlessOne day he asked me to come to his office and told me about his attitude towards life: we might suffer from mistakes, but its important to learn lessons from themAll the pains and the embarrassing things we experience are part of the processSo keep up your spirit!
