Practice Text I(Units 1-4) Passage one
Question 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.
When I was 15, I announced to my English class that I was going to write.The whole class nearly fell out of their chairs laughing.
\
I was so humiliated I burst into tears.That night I wrote a sad poem about broken dreams and mailed it to a local newspaper. To my astonishment they published it, and sent me two dollars. I showed the poem to my follow students.Again they laughed.\
I'd tasted success. That was more than any of them had done, and if it was \that was fine with me.
During the next two years I sold dozens of poems, letters, jokes,etc. By the time I graduated from high school, I had published quite a lot,but I never mentioned my writing to my friends again. They were dream killers.
But sometimes you do find a friend who supports your dreams.\new friend told me. \
I had four children at the time, and the oldest was only four. We lived on a goat farm in Oklahoma, miles from anyone. All I had to do each day was take care of four kids, milk goats, and do the cooking, laundry and gardening.
While the children napped, I typed on my ancient typewriter. I wrote what I felt. It took nine months, just like a baby.
I chose a publisher at random and put the manuscript in an empty diaper box, the only box I could find,The letter I enclosed read: \
A month later I received a contract and a request to start working on another book.
Crying Wind became a bestseller, I appeared on TV talk shows.I traveled from New York to California and Canada on promotional tours. My first book also became required reading in schools in Canada.
People ask what college I attended, what degrees I have, and what qualifications I have to be a writer. The answer is none. I just write. I'm not a genius, and I'm not gifted.
十五岁的时候,我对班上同学宣布说准备写书。一半的学生开始窃笑,其余的则几乎从椅子上笑得跌到地上。
“别傻了,只有天才才能成为作家,”一个同学对我说。
我羞愧得大哭起来。那天晚上,我写了一首关于梦想破灭的伤心短诗,并将它寄给了当地的报社。出乎意料的是,他们发表了这首小诗并给我寄来了两美元。我是作家了,我的作品发表了并因此而得到了报酬。我拿给老师和同学看,他们再一次的嘲笑我。“瞎猫逮着死耗子,”
我的第一篇作品就卖出去了。这比他们任何人做的都强,如果这是瞎猫逮着死耗子,那么我不在乎。
在接下来的两年里,我卖掉了几十首诗歌、书信、笑话和食谱。中学毕业时,我的剪贴簿里已经贴满了我发表的作品。我再也没有将自己的写作情况告诉朋友。他们都是无情的摧梦者。
但是有时也有朋友会支持你的梦想,“写作对你来说是简单的,”一个新的朋友告诉我,“你能做到的。”
现时我有四个孩子,最大的只有四岁。孩子们进入梦乡时,我就在那台老掉牙的打字机前打字,我写下自己的感受,这花了我九个月的时间,就像十月怀胎。我随意选择了一家出版社,将手稿用空的尿布盒子包起来。在附信中我写道:―这本书是我自己写的,希望你喜欢。
一个月后,我收到一份合同、一份预付款,以及另一本书的约稿。
我的书《哭泣的风》成了最畅销的书。白天我出现在电视上的访谈节目中,晚上则回家换尿片。为了去领各种奖项,我从纽约来到加利福尼亚、加拿大。我的第一本书被列为加拿大本土美语学校的必读课程。
人们问我曾上过什么大学,曾得过什么学位,曾获过什么资格证书才可以成为作家。答案是:“什么也不需要。”我只是写。我不是天才。

Passage two
Chris Peterson was teaching a class in psychology at Virginia Tech when he told his students to fill out a carefully designed test that determines a person’s level of optimism and pessimism.The students also answered questions about their general health,including how often they went to a doctor.
Peterson followed the health of his student the following year and discovered that the pessimists had twice as many diseases and made twice as many trips to the doctor as the optimists.
Later,Mattin Seligman of the University of Pennsylvania and two of his colleagues,using interviews and blood tests,found that optimists have better immune(免疫的)activity than pessimists.Why?One big factor is that ―Pessimistic individuals‖as Seligman writes,‖get depressed more easily and more often.‖
When a person is depressed,certain brain hormones become reduced,creating a chain of biochemical events that end up slowing down the activity if the immune system.
Optimists also look at information in more depth to find out what they can do about the risk factors,In a study by Lisa Aspinwall,at the University of Maryland,subjects read health-related information on cancer and other topics.She discovered that optimists spent more time than pessimists reading the sever risk material and they remembered more of it.
―These are people,‖says Aspinwall,‖who aren’t sitting around wishing things were different They believe in a better outcome, and that whatever measures they take will help them to heal.‖In other words,instead of having their heads in the clouds,optimistic.Thus,for yet another reason,optimists are likely to be healthier.
