Our Neighbourhood (附近的)Stars
Most of the stars that we see in the night sky are billions of kilometers away. But there is one star which is much closer to the Earth. We see it every day as a large, bright ball in the sky. It is called the Sun. It is the only star in our solar system(太阳系). It gives us heat and light. Without the sun, there would be no life on our planet.
The nearest star outside the solar system is called Alpha Certauri. It is bigger and hotter than the Sun. It looks much smaller because it is very far away. It takes four years for light to reach us from Alpha Centauri. The Earth is only about eight light minutes away from the Sun.
The Sun is not our nearest neighbour in space. The Moon is just 380, 000 kilometers away. It is the only part of the solar system that people have visited from the Earth. Where will we go next?
【1】The Sun is not the only star in our solar system.
【2】Without the sun, there would be no life on our planet.
【3】Alpha Certauri is bigger and hotter than the Sun.
【4】It takes four years for light to reach us from the Earth.
【5】People have visited the Moon from the Earth.
22、When William Stidger taught at Boston University, he once thought about the people he hadn’t thanked in his life. They taught him, encouraged him or cared a lot about him.
One was a teacher. She once taught William geography, and William loved geography all his life. So he wrote a letter of thanks to her.
He got the teacher’s letter later. It began, “My dear Willie.” He was very happy. Now over 50, he didn’t think someone would call him “Willie”. Here is that letter.
My dear Willie,
I can’t tell you how much your letter meant to me. I am in my eighties, living alone in a small room and cooking my own meals. You will be interested to know that I taught school for 50 years and yours is the first letter of appreciation(感激)I ever got. It came on a cold morning and it made me feel very warm.
…
William cried when he read the letter. She was one of the people that William hadn’t thanked in his past. She helped him to believe in himself. He would never forget her.
There are some people we should always remember, because they helped to shape our life. William Stidger found a way to show his appreciation—he wrote them letters.

23、Success does not belong to a select group of individuals (个人). Success belongs to those who are willing to go after it and try their best to do what they have to do. Here are some useful practical ways for you if you want to be a success.
Desire. Desire is the strong wish to achieve a goal. Without desire, you have nothing. Before you can run with desire, your goal must be plain, clear, and it must also be exciting.
Show up. Seventy percent of success in life is showing up. You can’t have a best seller, if you have never written a book. You can’t get your dream job, if you’re afraid to turn in an application. Showing up doesn’t guarantee (保证) success, but if you don’t show up, you won’t succeed.
Fail. Unless you’re willing to have a try, fail unhappily, and have another try, success won’t happen.
To have success, you have to do things the right way, but often the only way to do something right is to first fail at it. As Thomas J. Watson said, a simple formula (公式) for success is to double your rate of failure (失败). So welcome failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed.
Work harder. Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day. Success is not about doing what the common person can’t do. It’s about doing what the common person is unwilling to do. And on a deeper level, it’s about creating habits that the common person is unwilling to create. It’s the habit of doing things with excellence that causes success.
Enjoy the journey. Success is a journey, not a destination (终点). Success is not a certain car or a certain house or a certain happy marriage. Success is the enjoyment of the journey. You have to enjoy the journey.
Someone once said, “Unless you change how you are, you will always have what you’ve got.” You have to change, you will change, you will succeed.
【1】Which of the following is NOT mentioned (提及) in achieving success?
A.Good education.
B.Working hard.
C.Strong desire.
D.Enjoying failure.
【2】What does the writer really mean by saying “Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day.”?
A.It’s not easy for people to develop their health.
B.Keeping working harder is necessary when you go after success.
C.You are sure to meet with some difficulty in your life.
D.Most people don’t want to spend too much time running.
【3】What does the writer mostly want to tell us in the fourth paragraph?
A.Failure is the mother of success.
B.Many hands make light work.
C.Every dog has its day.
D.Actions speak louder than words.
【4】Which of the following is TRUE about success according to the passage?
A.If you want to succeed, you should have special talents.
B.If you want to succeed, you’d better not show up.
C.Success means the enjoyment of your gain or loss on the journey.
D.Success is about doing what the common person can’t do.
【5】The best title of the passage might be ________.
A.The Importance of Success
B.The Meaning of Success
C.Success or Failure
D.The Five Main Steps to Success
