 综合填空

Lofton is a little village (村庄) in England. It is not far  the city of Manchester. Not many  (family) live around the village, so the people all know each other. Most of  are  (friend) and helpful. 

Though their homes are in Lofton, many people have jobs in Manchester. Most of these people go to work train. It usually takes about half an hour  (go) from Lofton to Manchester. 

In the evening a lot of people like  (watch) TV. But if they go to see a film or go to a concert (音乐会) , they have to go to Manchester. Because there  (be) no cinemas in Lofton. 

Like many other villages near towns or cities, it is clean and quiet. So life in Lofton may not be so  (excite) as the life in the big cities, but it can be just as big. That is  people in Lofton love their village.

 Passage C·

People love walking through a giant puzzle. In a corn maze(玉米迷宫), they can follow miles of paths and run into lots of dead ends before they finally find their way out. The corn maze has been growing for almost 30 years. 

Simple corn mazes began appearing in the 1980s. In 1993, the first big corn maze created for the public to enjoy was made in Annville Pennsylvania, by Don Frantz and Adrian Fischer. Then, in a corntield as big as two and a half football fields, Mr. Frantz created "The Amazing Maize Maze"with the help of his family and friends. When it was done, almost two miles of pathways snaked through the cornfield. Since then, thousands of corn mazes have been created around the world.

For many farmers, a corn maze means a boost(激增) of extra income. During the opening weekend, about 6, 000 visitors came to get lost in Mr. Frantz's maze. Charging only $5 per person, he earned almost $32, 000in two weeks.

Brett Herbst is also a maze designer. In 1999 he set a world record for the world's largest corn maze, an image of the solar system with nine planets in it. He now has a business called The Maize, which has designed more than 4, 000 mazes around the world. "Corn mazes help people connectwith their roots, "he says. "People are so far removed from farm life that they are drawn to something real, something organic. "

Today, a great number of people enjoy seeking fun in a corn maze. Mr. Herbst says, "When we see families on the farm having fun, we know that they are making memories that will last a lifetime. "

Choosing a job isn't always easy, but there are still some tips that can help you make up your mind.

{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

Sometimes adults may want you to become a doctor, or work in banking, or be a teacher. Listen to them, but remember it's your life and it's your decision. So be sure that you are the one who makes that decision.

Consider what you are good at. 

It's true that things like salary are important, but don't let them lead you down the wrong path. Follow your heart and your personality. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}If you don't like work which needs lots of attention to detail, think long and hard before you decide to do something like applying to study engineering at university.

Your first decision isn't forever.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}They start a job, love it straight away and stick at it. But it isn't always like that. So remember that you are allowed to change your mind. It's not necessary to worry for years. Maybe your first job doesn't turn out to be suitable for you. Maybe the right job for you is right around the corner!

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}

Some people choose their jobs simply because they think they'll make huge amounts of money. OK, if that is what you want. But people usually get more satisfaction out of their jobs if they feel they are doing something valuable for others. It doesn't have to be charity work. It could be a job that helps other people in the community.

Just don't forget that job satisfaction isn't only about money.

A. Do something of value. 

B. Others can decide your future. 

C. Some lucky people get it right the first time. 

D. Don't let other people decide what you should do.  

E. If you are very active, don't choose an office job, even if the pay is good. 

Which of the above tips do you agree with most? Why? (20词以内) {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

 阅读短文,回答问题

It's common to wonder sometimes, "What if something goes wrong? " It's important to recognize (识别) that thought and manage it so that you don't lose yourselves in the worry. Worrying about the future is a normal part of life. From time to time, everyone wonders what would happen if something doesn't go to plan: "What if I make a mistake? " or "What if everyone laughs at me? ". These "what-if" worries focus on a bad result. Spending a lot of time "what if-ing" makes you not want to do things, and it can make it hard to pay attention to what you're doing or what people are saying.

There are different ways you can help yourself. Expert Angela McMillan suggests creating an "IF/THEN" plan. "For example," she says, "IF you have to stand up in front of the class, THEN you will take three deep breaths and remind yourself you have prepared and you're OK. Or IF the social event is really noisy and you don't know what to do, THEN you can step outside for a few minutes." You can also know what you're worrying about and then challenge it. Try thinking about what could go right. For example, instead of thinking "What if I miss the ball when I try to kick it?" You should ask "What if I score a goal?"

McMillan points out that most worries never happen. "Remember they are thoughts and the bravest thing we can do is to not let the worry win," she says. Try to focus your attention on what you're doing. That could be the book you're reading, the TV show you're watching or the conversation you're having. Getting angry with yourself will make you feel worse, so be kind to yourself. Think about how you would talk to your classmate who is feeling worried — and then speak to yourself in that same way.
