The way you feel about yourself is called your self-esteem. When you have high self-esteem, you have a favourable opinion of yourself, even though you are aware of some faults. If you have low self-esteem, it means that you don’t like yourself very much. Self-esteem concerns the whole you—your feelings about your body, your mind, your
1
, and your interactions with others. Your self-esteem is closely linked to your self-concept梩he view that you have of yourself.
Your self-concept might be
2
or unrealistic. People suffering from low self-esteem often have an unrealistic self-concept.
If you
3
from low self-esteem, you should begin working on it immediately. If you learn to feel
4
about yourself, you will be more confident. You will be more able to see the positive feelings that people have toward you. You will also be less likely to be influenced by others to do things you would
5
not do.

We live in central Phoenix, near the canal(运河). Every day I used to see a homeless old man and his scruffy little dog hanging out down there.
I would tell my husband we should give him food for the little dog. It wouldn't have been a problem; we have our own "mini farm" of animals! But he would say "OK!" and then blow the idea off because of our business.
Being in Phoenix, Arizona, you can just imagine how hot it gets here, but his winter was really chilly! I had just come from KFC with take-out food for dinner. As I was turning by the canal, the man and his dog were sitting right there all bundled up. Even the doggy had a coat on! Not even thinking about it, I pulled into the parking lot along the canal and piled up a plate of chicken with all the fixings for the man and his little buddy(好友). I gave it to him with a soda and a bottle of water for the little dog. He said, "Thank you, sweetie. You are an angel." And there were tears welling up in his eyes! I told him he was so welcome, and then went home.
When my husband dug into the KFC bag he asked, "Were you hungry, or what?" I told him what I did and he said, "Only you!" Then he told me I had done a good thing.
A few weeks later, we were walking along the canal and found the man walking to me, with his little dog. He asked whether I would mind adopting the dog. With tears in eyes, he said it had gotten too hard for him to care for the dog. He added that he was planning on heading to Washington State but his dog wouldn't have been up to it, so he hoped to give it to me. "Only you! In this city, you are the only person I can believe in!"
Now, every time I watch and pat the dog lying near the fireplace, I will remember the old man's words and wish him good luck.
55. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 3?
A. She gave the old man some food on a cold day.
B. She met the old man after finishing her dinner.
C. She offered the old man nothing but chicken.
D. She burst into tears after helping the old man.
56. What did the author's husband feel when she told him what she had done?
A. thankful
B. delighted
C. indifferent
D. disappointed
57. Why did the old man hope to give the dog to the author?
A. Because he knew the author was also a dog lover.
B. Because the author was the person he could trust.
C. Because the author was the only person he knew.
D. Because he believed that his dog liked the author.
58. What can we infer from the ending of the passage?
A. The author refused the old man's request.
B. The author misses the old man and his dog.
C. The author feels the old man was very lucky.
D. The author adopted the old man's dog.
C
Many young people tell me that they want to be writers. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there is a big difference between being a writer and writing. In most cases these people are dreaming of wealth and being famous, not the long hours alone at the typewriter.
When I became a writer, I had no future. What I had was a friend called George. He found me a home. It was cold and had no bathroom. I could only afford a used typewriter. A year later, however, I still hadn’t received a break and began to doubt myself. But I knew I wanted to write. I would keep putting my dream to the test—even though it meant living with fear of failure. This is the shadow land (阴影) of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there. Then one day I got a call from a friend who asked me to be an assistant for $6,000 a year. As the dollars were dancing in my head, something brought me to my sense. “Thanks, but no,” I heard myself saying. After that, I walked around my little room and started to feel like a fool. I felt a little low.
Later, I gradually began to sell my articles. It was after 17 years of being a writer that Roots was published. At once I had the kind of fame and success that few writers ever experienced. The shadows had turned into great sunlight. Before that, it was a long and slow climb out of the shadows.
59. The second paragraph is mainly about ______.
A. the job chance the author ever had
B. the difficulties before the author succeeded
C. the great help from the author’s friends
D. the important choices the author made
60. The underlined word “something” in Paragraph 2 refers to _______.
A. the author’s dream of being a writer
B. the author’s trouble in making money
C. the author’s hard life before success
D. the author’s wish to be successful
61. How did the author feel after he refused the job offer?
A. confident
B. angry
C. excited
D. unhappy
D
A new plan for getting children to and from school is being started by the education authorities in part of Eastern England. This could end the worries of many parents fearful for their children's safety on the roads.
Until now the Country Council has only been prepared to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from their school, or sometimes less if special reasons existed. Now it has been decided that if a group of parents ask for help in organizing transport they will be prepared to go ahead, provided the arrangement will not lose money and that children taking part will be attending their nearest school.
The new scheme is to be tried out this term for children living at Milton who attend Impington school. The children live just within the three-mile limit and the Council has said in the past it will not undertake to provide free transport to the school. But now they have agreed to organize a bus service from Milton to Impington and back, a plan which has the support of the school's headmaster.
Between 50 and 60 parents have said they would like their children to take part. Final calculations have still to be carried out, but a council official has said the cost to parents should be less than £6. 50 a term.
They have been able to arrange the service at a low cost because there is already an agreement with the bus company for a bus to take children who live further away to Impington. The same bus would now just make an extra journey to pick up the Milton children. The official said they would get in touch with other groups of parents who in the past had asked if transport could be provided for their children, to see if they would like to take part in the new scheme.
62. The children the Council ran buses for in the past were those______.
A. whose parents were worried about them
B. who would have had to walk otherwise
C. who could not walk
D. who had to travel a long way
63. The new bus service will run______.
A. on morning journeys to school only
B. in connection with an existing service
C. only for children living more than three miles away
D. only in wet weather
64. Agreement to pay for the new bus service has been achieved from______.
A. the school's headmaster
B. the education department
C. the bus company
D. the parents
65. The parents the Council is now going to get in touch with are those______.
A. who had not yet answered letters
B. who didn't want to pay
C. whose children stayed away from school
D. who had asked about transport before

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Li Hua from Class One, Senior Two. I am writing to apply for the opportunity to help the students in Chenxi Hope Junior School with their English. Thus they can improve their English during the summer vacation. Meanwhile, I can learn how to get along well with the students and benefit the whole school.
I’m kind, easy-going and always ready to help others. English is my favorite subject and I have won several prizes in English contests. So I think that I am qualified for the position.
I plan to communicate with students first to know what they need. Besides, I’ll try to get them more interested in English by telling stories, singing songs, playing games and so on.
I’d appreciate it if you could give me the opportunity.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
