25、The man who thinks he can
-Walter Wintle
If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't.
If you'd like to win, but you think you can't,
It is almost a certain—you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you're lost;
For out in this world we find
Success begins with a fellow's will;
It's all in the state of mind.
If you think you're outclassed(大大超过), you are;
You've got to think high to rise.
You've got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win the prize.
Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man;
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the one who thinks he can!

26、 Are you afraid of moving up to senior high school (高中)? Don’t worry. We’ve put together a guide to help you in the first week.
You’re not alone
Remember everybody else in your year is in the same boat. They may not realize it, but they’re just as nervous as you are. Moving to senior high school is a chance, not a problem. Things are different and all you need to do is to be polite and learn the new rules.
Teachers are ready to help
Teachers are probably the best people to turn to as they’re experienced in helping new students. Some senior high schools also have a “friends system”. If your school has this, then you will be paired with older students. They will help you if you have any problems.
Other points
If you’ve got an older brother or sister at the school, ask them for advice. Be yourself? It sounds simple, but people will know you much better if you just act naturally. Besides, having early nights makes a difference and you’ll find it easier to get up in the morning!
【1】The text is a guide for students who ________.
A.will enter the senior high school B.have finished senior high school

27、Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched You turn around and ,sure enough, someone was looking right at you!
Parapsychologists(心灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a “ six sense” really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist(心理学家) at the University of Kentucky, did two experiments.
In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects (受试者) were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later when he questioned the subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.
For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they being stared at and when they weren’t. Baker found the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren’t.
Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they are being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said Baker, “I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”
【1】what’s the aim of the two experiments ?
A. To study whether humans can sense when they are stared at.
B. To explain when people can have a sixth sense
C. To show how people act while being watched in the lab.
D. To Prove why humans have a sixth sense.
【2】what sense does parapsychologists say that humans have to
A. A looking feeling B. A natural staring ability
C. A strange thinking D. A natural ability
【3】The underlined word” outcome” in the last paragraph most probably means
A. value B. performance
C. result D. connection
【4】 What can we learn from the passage
A. People are born with a sixth sense.
B. The experiments support parapsychologists’ idea.
C. The subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.
D. People have a sixth sense in all places.

Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas.

I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered w【3】 I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way to the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.
I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I r【4】 a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had m【5】 their holiday meaningful.

“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?” I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would a【7】 no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write to him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.
“Thank you”—two powerful words. They’re easy to say and mean so much.
