Their freighter(货船)was upturned by a storm 21 and their hope, together with their merchandise vanished 22 . He was so upset by the blow that he became 23 and couldn’t 24 concentrate his attention. His 25 who suffered the same catastrophe never lost heart. His days went on as 26 as before. My friend asked him how he could 27 it. He said:” You curse, you grieve, life goes on as usual; you are happy and enjoy yourself, the world 28 as usual. Which course do you follow?”That’s how a person leads his life. When you are optimistic and in a good 29 , your future seems sunny and bright. 30 , when you are worried and have your mind 31 in sadness, your future will turn dark. The latter situation, if you allow it 32 , will cost you a great deal. You will lose 33 and courage to fight for the better. You will 34 the joyful things that come your way. They are really the most important, the most reliable part of links of our life. If they get loose and drop 35 , how can you keep happiness?There’s a poem 36 : “Whether you are 37 or not, whether you like or dislike, show attention or 38 , flowers bloom luxuriously all the same.” Yes, that’s 39 . Just as flowers keep blooming, fine days are passing away day after day. How to spend your days—joyfully or 40 —will entirely depend on yourself.21. A. by the sea B. in the sea C. by sea D. at sea22.

Salome’s 21 filled the room and brought the theater to life. I was so22 that I decided to write an article about her.I 23 Salome Bey, telling her I was from Essence magazine, and that I wanted to meet her to talk about her career. She 24 and told me to come to her studio next Tuesday. When I hung up, I was scared out of my mind. I 25 I was lying. I w as not a writer at all and hadn’t even written a grocery list.I interviewed Salome Bey the next Tuesday. I sat there 26 , taking notes and asking questions that all began with, “Can you tell me…” I soon realized that 27 Salome Bey was one thing, but writing a story for a national magazine was just impossible. The 28 was almost unbearable. I struggled for days 29 draft after draft. Finally I put my manuscript (手稿) into a large envelope and dropped it into a mailbox.It didn’t take long. My ma nuscript 30 . How stupid of me! I thought. How could I 31 in a world of professional writers? Knowing I couldn’t 32 the rejection letter, I threw the unopened envelope into a drawer.Five years later, I was moving to California. While 33 my apartment, I came across the unopened envelope. This time I opened it and read the editor’s letter in 34 :Ms Profit,Your story on Salome Bey is fantastic. Yet we need some 35 materials. Please add those and return the article immediately. We would like to 36 your story soon.Shocked, it took me a long time to 37 . Fear of rejection cost me a lot. I lost at least five hundred dollars and having my article appear in a major magazine. More importantly, I lost years of 38 writing. Today, I have become a full – time writer. Looking back on this 39 , I learned a very important lesson: You can’t 40 to doubt yourself.21.A.joy B.voice C.speech D.smile 22.A.proud B.active C.satisfied D.moved 23.A.visited B.emailed C.phoned D.interviewed 24.A.agreed B.refused C.hesitated D.paused 25.A.replied B.discovered C.explained D.knew 26.A.seriously B.patiently C.nervously D.quietly 27.A.blaming B.fooling C.inviting D.urging 28.A.hardship B.failure C.comment D.pressure 29.A.with B.by C.on D.in 30.A.disappeared B.returned C.spread D.improved 31.A.compare B.struggle C.survive D.compete 32.A.ignore B.deliver C.face D.receive 33.A.decorating B.repairing C.cleaning D.leaving 34.A.disbelief B.anxiety C.horror D.trouble 35.A.subjective B.relevant C.private D.reliable 36.A.broadcast B.create C.publish D.assess 37.A.recover B.prepare C.escape D.concentrate 38.A.energetic B.endless C.typical D.enjoyable 39.A.experience B.success C.benefit D.accident 40.A.attempt B.afford C.expect D.pretend。
