When I realized that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry and told her the truth.
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her.
Over the next few weeks, with her continuous encouragement, I learned to take pride in the role. The big day finally came.

After the play, I took home the flower, laughing that I was perhaps the only person who would keep such a weed.

A newly arrived visitor to the United States was recently asked what has been the most difficult thing for him on his first day in America. Without a moment’s hesitation(犹豫)，he answered，“Finding a public bathroom.”
Some countries have public rest rooms that are plainly in view on city streets or in small buildings that are clearly marked，but the United States does not. In America，public rest rooms are located in Gasoline
Stations (where it’s clean and free，although one may need to ask the attendant for a key) airports，bus stations and railroad stations. Restaurants，libraries，large stores，theaters and all places where the public is welcome are supplied with rest rooms. You can go into any hotel and ask for the “Ladies’ Room” or“ Men’s Room”，even if you are not a guest at the hotel.
Don’t be confused by the name on the doors of the rest rooms. Sometimes they are marked “Men” or “Women” or “Ladies” or “Dames”；or simply “Rest Room”．There may be a picture or other sign on the door indicating(表明) whether it is a men’s or ladies’ room. Restaurants especially follow this custom. Women’s rooms are often called “Powder Rooms”．The European terms “Comfort Station or WC” are rarely used in the United States，but generally understood. 24. Rest room is ________.
A．W.C B．cinema C. sitting-room D．Restaurant 25. In the second paragraph “are plainly in view” means that _______. A．can’t be seen easily B．can be seen easily C．can be wonderful to see D．can be ugly to see 26. “Powder Rooms” refers to “________” in America.

We’ve all met with something that slows us down, for example, the bump（颠簸）in the road, the setback. You just have to keep in mind that a setback is only temporary and greater things lie ahead. Therefore, keep moving forward, developing what you have, since you’ve already built a solid foundation on which you can rely.
It is easy just to quit, give up and ignore the hard work you have put into something. But we believe in the “two steps forward, one step back” philosophy（哲学）. So how can you react when something doesn’t turn out as you’ve expected it to be?
First, be objective. Step back and look at the situation. Is your setback really that significant, or will it
just require a little extra effort? Then, plan your next move. You can ask for help. Don’t be afraid or ashamed to do this. Frequently, people are more than willing to give you support and advice. You don’t have to be perfect; after all, nobody else is. Next, bounce back. Reevaluate the goals you should have set for yourself at the beginning and retool（改组）them as necessary. Goals should be realistic and specific, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be flexible. Instead of looking at your project as a disaster or failure, view it with success. Concentrate on how great it will feel after it is finally done, after you have put your all into it. instead of focusing on a possible unsatisfactory performance one single time, take a moment to sit back and reward yourself for all that you have accomplished.
Above all, don’t live with regrets. Success is never easy. It remains up to you whether you will give up , or fight through the tough battles to earn whatever you want. Keep reaching for your goals and you will achieve them. One small setback is nothing if you really want something and are willing to work for it. 28．According to the passage, the philosophy “two steps forward, one step back” means that ________when meeting with a setback.
A. we are supposed to quit and ignore the hard work B. we’d better think it over before making a decision C. we should stop to think before taking further action D. we are expected to look at things in an all-round way 29．The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to . A. a performance B. a success A．to keep moving forward to your goals
B．to depend on others’ support and advice C．to sit back and reward yourself for your success D．to focus on a possible unsatisfactory performance A．How to avoid the bumps.
C. a goal D. a project
30．When we suffer a setback, the most important thing to do is not .
31．What is the passage mainly about? B．How to deal with the setbacks. C．Different attitudes to the setbacks.
D．Different suggestions on your goals.
