What’s the most important thing for you to have in your life? Someboy mentions hard-work, others suggest knowledge, love and luck.
If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically(按字母表的顺序)and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c…, you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11="98," meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5="96," while love :12+15+22+5="54," and luck : 12+21+3+11="47," a small mark. None of these words can give one a full mark. What about money or prayer(祈祷)? They can’t , either.
Then what else? Don’t be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude(态度).Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100,a full mark.
Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most times people hope for a better life. It is possible that one will have a change for the betterr after one has changed one’s attitude.
When you change your manner and became friendly towards others, you’ll meet more smiling faces towards you.In the same way, if you take a positive(积极地)attitude towards failure(失败),you’ll find it’s also rewarding though it has caused you losses.
In the writer’s opinion , what is the most important things in a person’s life?

A.Hard-work. B.Knowledge. C.Money. D.Attitude.

According to the passage, if you meet with problems, the best way out is to ___________.

A.ask for helpf from others B.say your prayers to God

Whenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, “You should have goals like climbing the mountain.” Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from the mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience.
Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds’ singing. But as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there can you see all of the nice things, which is just like your life.”
At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got to know the meaning of hope in life. I found myself standing at the top of the mountain, and the sky was as clear as crystal.
The passage tells us that mountain-climbing was ______ for the father and the son.

A.hard B.enjoyable C.painful D.comfortable

The underlined word “crystal” in the passage means _______.

A.岩石 B.火焰 C.水晶 D.寒冰

Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the father’s words in the second paragraph?

A.You will get all you need at the top of the mountain.
B.The sky is always as clear as crystal.
C.You can find life is full of nice things.
D.Never give up half-way.

We can infer(推断) from the last paragraph that ______.

A.the writer was very successful in his life
B.the writer reached the top of the mountain
C.though the writer was young, he could understand his father
D.the writer used to stop half-way when he climbed the mountain

The best title for the passage is ______.

A.Reaching the Top of the Mountain
B.Standing at the Top of the Mountain
C.Conversations between Father and Son
D.How to Get to the Top of the Mountain
