The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire(泥沼)and started drowning, but the friend saved him.After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone, “Today my best friend saved my life.”The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, “After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you write on a stone.

As the heavy rain was destroying homes and villagers in Manila, the 18-year-old worker jumped into action. Muelmar swam through the floods and pulled 30 of his neighbors to safety. After pushing a mother and baby to the shore on a small boat, the tired hero was lost in the water, and his body was discovered the next day. “He gave his life for my baby,” said Menchie Penalosa, the childs mother. “I will never forget him.”Tilly Smith. You never know when those lessons learned in geography class will be put to good use. For Smith, just 10 years old at the time, being able to recognize the warning signs of a tsunami, saved about 100 lives at a holiday center in Thailand. The English schoolgirl was walking on a beach in Phuket when she noticed the water was coming in, but it wasnt going out again. A tsunami, she realized, was just minutes away.

Jonathan puzzled why some of his classmates struggled, and his parents told him he had a special gift. In the seventh grade, however, Jonathan suddenly lost interest in school, not willing to do homework or study for tests. So his grades dropped. His parents tried to raise their sons confidence by telling him that he was very smart. But their tries failed to let Jonathan work hard again.Our society respects talent, and many people guess that having talent along with confidence is a secret of success. However, a scientific result of more than 35years suggests depending on talent leaves people easy to fail, fearful of difficulties and unwilling to correct their weaknesses.The result shows in children like Jonathan, who gets the early grades under the dangerous idea that academic achievement without effort defines(下定義)them as smart or talented. Such children believe that intelligence is born and fixed, making trying to learn seem far less important than being smart. This belief also makes them see difficulties, mistakes and even the need to use effort as threats(威脅)to their abilities rather than as opportunities to improve. And it causes them to lose confidence when the work is no longer easy for them. Praising childrens born abilities, as Jonathans parents did, helps this mindset, which can also stop young people from realizing and making full use of their potential(潛能). On the other hand, our studies show that teaching people to have a “growth mindset”, which encourage more attention to process rather than to intelligence or talent, helps make them more successful in school and in life.13. Jonathans grades dropped because he _.A. didnt depend on his parentsB. was not so clever as beforeC. was willing to go to schoolD. wanted to behave like his classmates14. What do most people think of “born talent”?A. It has nothing to do with good grades.B. It can raise confidence in ones ability.C. It leads people to fail to face weaknesses.D. It is a key point leading to success.15. A child who believes talent is born is _.A. easy to get what he wantsB. easy to deal with hard workC. hard to lose his self-confidenceD. easy to give up when faced with difficulty第二節(jié)(共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。Maybe you are an average student. _16_ This is not necessarily so, however.
