Dear headmaster, teachers, parents and fellow students,
I’m very proud that you have chosen me to speak to you today.
I have three roses here: a red one, a yellow one and a white one. These roses are to thank three groups of people for the three most important things that I have learnt. These three things are friendship, effort and trust.
I give the red rose to my friends. When I started school here, my Chinese was not good, and some of my mistakes were very funny. I once tried to say “xiexie”, but I said “xiaxia”instead. Of course some people laughed, and I felt quite silly. But they were not laughing at me. They not only taught me to say many things in Chinese but also told me many interesting customs in China. Today, thanks to their kindness, my Chinese is much better, and I have been used to the life in China. So, let me say “xiexie”again to all of you for your help.
I give the white rose to my teachers. When I started running in the 800 meters, I always finished last and I just wanted to give up. But the PE teacher, Ms Huang, helped me. She ran along with me, and she said, “You only really lose if you give up! ”
I still can’t run fast enough, but I’ve learnt to try my best not only with running but with whatever else I do.
I give the yellow rose to my parents for teaching me that love is about trust. When I wanted to learn the violin, my father told me that I should work harder at
maths. I was disappointed. Then, on the morning of my birthday, I woke up to find a beautiful violin at my bedside. There was a note from my father: “I’m sure you will be good at music. I know that you will be better at math. ”
I’m sure that you all have your own memories about the happiness of the last three years, and the people whom you want to thank for it, so let’s all stand up and say: “Thank you, friends, teachers and parents! We love you! ”

There is a farmer who is famous for his good corn. Each year his corn joins in the state fair(州集市)and wins prizes.
One year a news reporter interviewed him and learned something interesting. The reporter discovered that the farmer shared his best corn seeds with his neighbors every year.
“Why do you share your best corn seeds with your neighbors who will be your opponents(对手)in the competition?”the reporter asked.
“ Sir,” said the farmer. “ Don’t you know? The wind blows pollen(花粉) of the corn among fields. If I want to grow good corn, I must help my neighbors grow good corn.”
Now we live in a world in which we need to face fierce competition, so some people are not willing to share their experience or knowledge with others as they crave(渴望)their own fame and wealth. However, as the saying goes, “No man is an island.” We have to cooperate(合作)with other people. Without understanding this truth, we will fail for sure. If one of the wheels of a truck chooses not to cooperate with the other wheels, the truck can’t move smoothly. Therefore, the farmer’s corn can’t improve unless his neighbors’ corn also improves.
All in all, people who want to live well should help others live well, and people who want to be happy should help others get happiness.
( )36. The farmer was famous for his ____________
https://www.wendangku.net/doc/3718305108.html,rge farm
B. great health
C.excellent corn
D.kindness
( )37.What was the farmer’s secret to growing good corn?
A.He cooperated with some famous experts
B. He was the most hard-working farmer in the fields.
C.He knew how to choose good corn seeds by himself
D.He allowed his neighbors to use his corn seeds.
( )38. If the neighbors grow poor corn, what will happen to the farmer’s corn?
A.It will win the competition more easily
B. It will become bigger in size
C.It will also be of poor quality
D.It will lose the competition for sure. ( )39. In what way does the writer tell us why we should cooperate with other people?
A.By giving examples
B. By using a lot of numbers
C.By following the order of time
D.By writing about his own experiences. ( )40. What can we learn from the text?
A.Every neighbor is a teacher
B. None of us truly wins until we all win!
C.Try to live our life in our own way
D.A good beginning makes a good ending
D
Why do designers of fireworks like to put the biggest bang at the end? Why does a gymnast (体操运动员)often show his best skill at the end of his performance? And why does the climax(高潮)of a movie usually come at the end instead of the beginning?
To answer these questions, you need to understand a rule in psychology (心理学) first. It’s called the “ peak-end-rule”.
Please think about this: How do we usually judge(判定) a past event? Do we take an average of our happiness level across the entire event? No. In fact, our memories are affected by the “ peak-end-rule”. We don’t remember all parts of the event equally. Instead, we only think of how the event was at the end and how it was at its “peak”. That helps us decide whether we would like to experience the event again.
One of the most famous papers on the rule was published in 1993. Scientists asked a group of people to put their hands in freezing water. People had to keep their hands in the water for 60 seconds. Then the same group of people was asked to do the same thing again. This time, however, they had to leave their hands in the water for 30 seconds longer while the temperature was raised a little bit. They were then asked which of the two experiences they would prefer to repeat.
You might thing people would choose the first one. However, most people said they would like to repeat the second experience. They chose more pain over less, but with a happier ending.
So the next time you make a plan, plan for the best things to happen at the end. Don’t worry if things don’t go according to your plans. After all, you may not remember the bad bits!
( )41. How do we decide whether we should experience an event again?
A. Ask some of our closest friends for advice
B.Think about how we felt across the entire event
C.Think about how the event was at the end and at its best part
https://www.wendangku.net/doc/3718305108.html,pare the event with the plan that we made at the beginning
( )42. What does the underlined word “ freezing “ in Paragraph 4 probably mean in English ?
A.Very dirty
B. Quite clean
C. Terribly hot
D.Terribly cold
( )43. In paragraph 4, how long did the group of people keep their hands in the water the second time?
A.For 30s
B.For 60s
C.For 90s
D.For 120s
( )44.Which of the following can be explained by the “ peak-end-rule”?
A. He who laughs last laughs best
B.The most difficult part of a quiz usually appears in the end
C.People are likely to enjoy their favorite part of a dish at the end
D. During an 800-meter race, we run the fastest in the last 50 meters
( )45. What would be the best title for the text?
A. All’s Well That Ends Well
B.A Guide to Making Good Plans
C.How a Past Event Is Judged
D.A Good Beginning Is Half Done
