Run for Class President
Two
months ago, when our class
election(
选举
) started, I
decided to run for class president. I enjoyed
speaking in public and got along well
with people, so I felt it easy to win. But I was
13
.that people
would feel bad for me if I lost.
I was bu
sy
preparing in the following week. My plan wasn’t to
make promises to do things I couldn’t
14
but to show my
class why I wanted to be president. I put up my
posters in hallways and in the
classroom.
I
also
spent
three
hours
writing
my
speech,
saying
that
I
was
the
one
they
could
turn
to
whenever
they
had
a
problem.
Since
I
was
15
prepared,
I
felt
that
my
chances
of
winning
were
strong.
However, when I gave
my speech on Election Day, the response
(
反应
) wasn’t what I had 16
.
Few people
actuall
y listened. When it was my
opponent’s (
对手的
)turn,
everyone was screaming his name.
His
speech was short, but all to the point. By then, I
realized I should have made mine shorter and
clearer.
It was obvious who would 17
. For the rest of the day,
I felt like it was over. I wanted to just go
home and cry, but I made it through.
My 18
was
right: I didn’t win.
The
next day, people were still talking about the
election. I just pretended
(
假装
) not to hear. But later,
things got better. People 19
about the election and
talked to me just as they did before.
I
don’t regret putting time and energy into the
election because I’ve learned that things aren’t
always
going the way I expect. And
moments of failure like this build 20
—since then I’ve learne
d to
face
disappointment and grown stronger.
13. A. bored
B. afraid
C. excited
D. hopeful
14. A. compare
B. remember
C. manage
D. repeat
15. A. fully
B. quickly
C. freshly
D. physically
16. A. feared
B. faced
C. mentioned
D. pictured
17. A. insist
B. return
C. wait
D. win
18. A. suggestion
B. prediction
C. direction
D. introduction
19. A. forgot
B. wrote
C. cared
D. discussed

Blue Lightning
Sally loved
cars more than anything else. This spring she
thought of building a go-kart to enter for the
Go-Go Race. So she asked her dad for
help.
“Well,” he said. “How
about this: you do some research first and then
come back to me with a design.”
A week later, Sally brought her notes
and drawings to Dad. She named her
go-
kart “Blue Lightning”.
Dad
looked
over
her
work,
thinking.
“Well,
that’s
interesting,”
he
said.
“Have
a
try.
Just
build
Blue
Lightning as you’ve
designed.”
Over three
weekends of hard work, Sally turned her design
into a real, working go-kart and painted it
light blue. Dad asked her to take it
for a test drive. Sally agreed.
After she did that, Sally drove back to
Dad. “Well,” she said. “Now I know why you wanted
me to
have a test drive.”
“Oh, do you?” he said. “Please
share.”
“When I drove fast,
there was a lot of pushback,” she said. “I think
it’s because of the lightning bolt
(
闪电
)
shape.”
“Very good!” Dad
said.
“So, why didn’t you
tell me about that problem in the first place?”
Sally asked.
Dad laughed.
“Where’s the fun in that? If you give a man a
fish, he’ll eat for a day. But if you teach a
man to fish, he’ll eat for a
lifetime.”
Sally said, “I
see. Anyway, designing is half the fun
!”
Dad smiled. “Good.
Sometimes, learning happens during the process. We
learn how to do something
right by
doing it a few times first and making mistakes
along the way.”
That
encouraged
Sally
and
she
worked
even
harder.
When
she
showed
Dad
her
new
go-kart,
he
nodded with pride.
Finally
came
the
race.
Sally
wasn’t
worried
about
whether
she
would
win—
in
her
mind,
she
had
already won, by building
something better than ever before.
24.
Sally thought of building a go-kart to
.
A. practice
driving
B.
enter for a race
C. play with friends
D. do some research
25. What did Sally’s dad ask her to do
after she built the go
-kart?
A. To have a
test drive.
B.
To take a good rest.
C. To give it a cool name.
D. To paint it light blue.
26. Sal
ly’s story mainly
tells us that
.
A. winning a race is important
B. fishing
brings us a lot of fun
C. driving experience is necessary
D. learning
happens during the process
C
Sometimes it seems that time is flying.
Perhaps it doesn’t need to fe
el this
way. Our experience of time
can be
possibly changed. By understanding the
psychological (
心理学的
)
processes behind our different
experiences of time, we might be able
to slow down time a little.
One basic
law of psychological time is that time seems
t
o slow down when we’re
exposed(
接触
) to
new environments and experiences. The
law is caused by the relationship between our
experience of time
and the amount of
information our minds process. The more
information our minds take in, the slower time
seems to pass.
It follows,
then, that we have different experiences of time
in different situations. In some situations,
our life is full of new experiences.
Our minds process a lot of information and time
seems to slow down. In
other
situations,
we
have
fewer
new
experiences
and
the
world
around
us
becomes
more
and
more
familiar(
熟悉的
). We
become insensitive to our experience, which means
we process less information, and
time
seems to speed up.
How can we slow down
time? Here are two suggestions.
Firstly, since we know that familiarity
makes time pass faster, we can expose
ourselves to as many
new
experiences
as
possible.
We
can
give
ourselves
new
challenges,
meet
new
people,
and
expose
our
minds
to
new
information,
hobbies
and
skills.
This
will
increase
the
amount
of
information
our
minds
