perhaps he came from Persia．And when he got there, he saw a lot of fruit．In India they have plenty of fruit to sell, but much of it is expensive because they can't grow much due to the water situation．So he saw one basket, a big basket of some very red, long fruit．And it was the cheapest in the shop, not expensive at all．So he went up and asked, "How much per kilo?" And the shopkeeper said, "Two rupees（卢比）．" Two rupees in India is nothing; it's like dirt．So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it．But after he ate some of it: Oh, my God! His eyes watered, his mouth watered and burned, his eyes were burning, his head was burning and his face became red．As he coughed and choked and gasped for breath, he jumped up and down, saying, "Ah! Ah! Ah!"But he still continued to eat the fruit! Some people who were looking at him shook their heads and said, "You're crazy, man．Those are chilies（辣椒）! You can't eat so many; they're not good for you! People use them as a condiment（作料）, but only a little bit to put into food for taste．You can't just eat them by the handful like that; they're not fruit!" So the stupid master said, "No, I can't stop! I paid money for them, and now I'll eat them．It's my money!"And you think that master was stupid, right? Similarly, we sometimes do a lot of things like that．We invest money, time or effort in a relationship, business or job．And even though it's been a long time, bitter experience tells us it won't work, and we know there's no more hope that things will change in the future —this we definitely know by intuition（直觉）— we still continue just because we've invested money, time, effort and love into it．Just like the man who ate the chilies and suffered so much but couldn't stop because he didn't want to waste the money he'd paid．61．Why did the master buy a lot of chilies?A．He loved the taste of chilies very much．B．He spent a lot of money on chilies．C．The price of chilies is very low．D．The quality of Indian chilies is very good．62．What can we infer about the master according to the passage?A．He is very wise in spending his money．B．He came from Persia with someone else．C．He walked to India for the first time．D．He is a very rich and honest man．63．What is the purpose of the passage?A．To share us a funny story about a silly master．B．To tell us when to give up in life．C．To offer some information about India．D．To remind us how to spend money wisely．BGeneral Airport TipsPlan to get to the airport at least an hour early, or two during holidays and other busy times; this will reduce the stress of the flight．If all goes well, you will have time to relax, shop for last-minute items, or have a meal before the flight．Flight DelaysFind out why your flight is delayed．Call the free call numbers．Find out if other airlines are experiencing similar delays．If you believe the delay is due to something other than weather or air traffic problems, then mention your suspicion （怀疑）and ask the airline agent to book you on the next available flight, either on the same air-line or a competing one．This is called "Rule 240", and all airlines are required to do it．Use the lingo （行话）; ask, "Can you 240 me?" when speaking with an agent．They will know what you mean．Flight Cancellations （取消）If your flight is canceled, then make a reservation on the next flight to your destination（目的地）．Usually, air-line officials will try to book everyone on their next flight out．Often they will put you on a competitor's next flight only if you request it．If on-time arrival is important to you, when you check flights through our reservation system you can make your choices based on their on-time arrival records．Be sure to also check the weather conditions, as they often affect flight schedules．Getting bumped （不能登机）To avoid getting bumped, you must be at the loading gate at least 10 minutes ahead of scheduleddeparture（离开）for a U．S．Flight, 20 minutes to /from Bahamas, Canada, and Mexico and 30 to/ from all other international points．You must be at the loading gate, not the airport entrance．64．By arriving at the airport earlier, one can _______．A．get on the airplane immediately B．reduce the pressure of the flightC．have a good rest in the airplane D．buy what he wants in the airport65．If a person calls "Rule 240", he wants to _______．A．make sure the time for the next plane B．get a ticket for the next flightC．know if other flights are also delayed D．ask about the reason for the plane delay 66．After a flight cancellation, you can_______．A．arrive at your destination on timeB．be put on a competitor’s flightC．make sure the weather is quite fineD．reserve the next flight to your destination67．People heading for Germany must be at the loading gate at least__________．A．40 minutes ahead of time．B．30 minutes ahead of time．C．20 minutes ahead of time．D．10 minutes ahead of time．68．The purpose in writing this text is to________．A．show us how to get on a planeB．tell us what to do before and after a flightC．put forward suggestions for a flightD．give us advice on dealing with airlinesCIt’s good to make mistakes, and here is why．First of all, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things．It’s always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing．If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you expand? The simple answer is “You can’t．” Look around you．With very few exceptions, either everything you see in your world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something new．Another good thing about mistakes is this: Whenyou are making mistakes, you are learning．Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb．When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work．Finally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success．Why? Because when all is said anddone, you will have tried some numbers of things before you succeed．Every time you make a mistake you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer．But this all doesn’t mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences（后果）of a mistake．Quite the contrary, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesn’t work out the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again．We all have limited time and money so don’t blow them all on one approach to a problem．Realize that it probably wo n’t be perfect the first time and allocate （分配）these resources properly so you can learn, make corrections, and try it again．If you accept and use your mistakes in this way ,you can make great progress in your business and your career．There is an old sa ying that goes, “If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough．”So go ahead and make mistakes．And learn．And grow．And succeed．69．From the second paragraph, we can conclude that _______．A．mistakes are unnecessary for development B．we are afraid of trying new thingC．it’s common for people to make mistakes D．mistakes are better than not trying70．The underlined word “eliminate” means _______．A．avoid B．remove C．accept D．solve 71．According to the article, one thing you should pay attention to about making mistakes is_____．A．avoiding making the same mistakes B．accepting the punishment willinglyC．taking consequences into consideration D．trying things out one by one72．What would the writer probably suggest we say to ourselves when we make a mistake?A．Never mind, I can always try again．B．I’d better stay out of trouble．C．Ok! Now I can learn something．D．Look at this mess．Anyone would be upset．第II卷（共56分）第四部分：基础知识（共四节, 满分31分）Ⅰ．根据首字母或中文提示, 写出正确的单词完成句子。
