“Now stretch(伸展)over your right leg!” my dance teacher yells over the music. “If it doesn’thurt，you’re not trying hard enough. Hold that stretch for 30 seconds!” My dance teacher works hard to form us into the dancers we desire to be. In order for this to occur，we stretch hard a lot!
Dancing is a real passion of many people， including me. I work hard to make myself better，and prove that I am good enough. Performing a dance routine is more than just a performance. Dancers tell stories when they dance. It is a way for us to express our personal feelings. Just letting go and letting your body move with the music can create your emotions.
Dance tells us things that our mind secretly hides.
“Get up and do it again! You need to keep your spirits up!” Even though I am completely worn out after my dances，I love to hear those words. It gives me a sense of relief knowing that I can again express my feelings out on the floor.
“Practice makes perfect! Come on，we have a competition this weekend， and we need to work harder!” Competitions are the best possible example of fun. For a dancer，life cannot get better than competitions. The thrill of losing yourself onstage is a rush of energy rushing through your body! The feeling is unexplainable. As you sit there putting on your makeup， fixing your hair，and putting on your costume，the rush just gradually grows until it is ready to be released onstage.
Finally the time comes to tell your story. Standing backstage waiting for your name to be called is one of the scariest moments. You are ready to show the world what you are capable of and what you have been perfecting for a while. Once your number is called， you walk out onstage. The applause at the end tells each dancer that their story has been received，and that the dance has been brought to life.

We live in a culture that sends out very mixed messages about mistakes: We’re told we learn by making them, but we work hard to avoid them. So the result is that most of us know that we are going to make mistakes, but deep down, we feel we shouldn’t.
Experiments with schoolchildren who did well on a given test show that those who were praised for being smart and then offered a more challenging or less challenging task afterward usually chose the easier one. On the other hand, children praised for trying hard一rather than being smart一far more often sele cted the more difficult task.
If we try hard to avoid mistakes, we aren’t open to getting the information we need in order to do better. In a writing study, experiments showed that those who are so scared to make mistakes perform worse in writing tasks than those who aren’t as worried about being perfect. They fear receiving any kind of negative feedback, so they don’t learn where they went wrong and how to get better.
We don’t just learn more when we’re open to mistakes, we learn deeper. Research tells us that if we，re only concerned about getting the right answer, we don’t always learn the underlying concepts that help us truly understand whatever we’re trying to figure out. Mistakes need to be seen not as a failure to learn, but as a guide to what still needs to be learned. As Thomas Edison said, “I am not discouraged, because every abandoned wrong attempt is another step forward. ”
Furthermore, we often make mistakes because we try new things一we wander away from accepted paths. Teflon, penicillin一these are examples of great discoveries made by mistake. Take a page from Albert Einstein, who said, “Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new. ”
28. What will happen to students praised for being smart in face of choosing tasks compared to students praised for working hard?
A. He will ask his teachers for advice.
B. He will hide his mistakes from his teachers.
C. He will work harder to avoid mistakes.
D. He will choose a less challenging task.
29. Which of the following statements is NOT acceptable according to the passage?
A. The more mistakes we make, the more we learn.
B. Mistakes can be used as a positive factor for success.
C. Being open to mistakes help you understand the truth.
D. A step forward may come from mistakes you’ve made.
30. What does the last paragraph want to tell us?
A. One must follow a correct path to avoid mistakes.
B. To become an Einstein, you should make mistakes.
C. Making mistakes is not a disadvantage in a way.
D. You can’t make mistakes unless you try new things.
31. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. We can never avoid making mistakes when we work.
B. Success can’t be achieved without making mistakes.
C. Try every means to avoid mistakes in our daily life.
D. Mistakes should be treated with a correct attitude.
D
Expensive perfumes (香水)come in tiny bottles，but many hide a whale-sized secret.
To perfect a particular smell， perfume-makers often use an ingredient that comes from sperm whales，called ambergris (龙诞香).But using ambergris， which helps a perfume last longer，is strongly opposed by many people who think it is wrong to kill whales just so we can smell sweet. Joerg Bohlmann is neither a perfumer nor a whale expert. He’s a plant biologist at the University of British Columbia in Canada. But his discovery of a new plant gene (基因) might push whales out of the perfume business.
The gene comes from fir trees， found throughout North America and commonly used as Christmas trees. The trees produce a chemical that can be used in perfume in place of ambergris-but with a catch. “There’s a problem that many people wouldn’t consider. In the tree，the chemical is mixed with many others. That makes separation a challenge,” Bohlmann says. “It’s like trying to isolate sugar from a biscuit. ”
This is where science becomes useful. When Bohlmann learned that fir trees produce the ambergris-like chemical，he decided to use his gene know-how to find the instructions for how to make the ambergris-substitute.
Bohlmann found that gene and took it out of the tree cells. Then he did something that might sound strange to someone who doesn’t work in genetics: Bohlmann put the gene from the tree into yeast (酵母)cells.
Yeast may sound familiar because it’s used to make things like bread， wine and beer.
Biologists like to work with yeast because it easily adopts new genes and changes its features and behaviour. When Bohlmann put the fir tree gene into the yeast，the yeast started making the same chemical that had been produced by the tree.
Perfumers pay big money for ambergris because it is a fixative， which means it holds a smell in place on a person’s body.
“Cheap perfumes smell good in the first hour or so and then everything is gone,” explains Bohlmann. “But expensive perfumes are much more stable. Their smell lasts much longer，for hours or even a day after you apply them. ”
The new chemical，made from the tree genes， can be used as a fixative， too. And using yeast to make it is far cheaper than acquiring ambergris.
Bohlmann admits he never thought he’d get into the perfume business. But now，he says，producers have been calling to find out how to use his technology in new perfumes.
32. It can be inferred from the passage that if a perfume contains ambergris，_.
A. its user probably supports whale hunting
B. its smell will last for about an hour
C. it is probably very expensive
D. there will be a whale symbol on the bottle
33. The underlined expression “with a catch，，in Paragraph 3 means_.
A. being difficult to hold B. being too similar
C. needing further testing D. having a hidden problem
34. According to the passage, why are yeast cells often used in genetic research?
A. They’re much cheaper to use than ambergris.
B. They can reproduce much faster than other cells.
C. They share some of the qualities of plant genes.
D. They can take on the characteristics of other genes.
35. What can we learn about Joerg Bohlmann from the passage?
A. He has previously done genetic research.
B. He made his discovery during Christmas.
C. He has worked in the perfume industry for many years.
D. He is opposed to whale hunting.

Being Left-handed in a Right-handed World
The world is designed for right-handed people， but why does a tenth of the population prefer the left? 36
The answer to it remains a bit of a mystery. Since scientists have noticed that left-handedness tends to run in families，it’s assumed that left-handedness has a genetic(基因的)component to it. 37 In fact， identical twins， who share the same genes， can sometimes prefer to use different hands. There are also plenty of theories on what else might determine which hand you write with，but many experts believe that it’s kind of random.
Historically，the left side and left-handedness have been considered a negative thing by many cultures. 38 In some areas，the left hand became known as the “unclean，，hand. In many religions，the right hand of God is the favored hand. For example，Jesus sits at God’s right side. God’s left hand， however， is the hand of judgement. Various activities and experiences become rude or even signs of bad luck when the left hand becomes involved. In some parts of Scotland，it is considered bad luck to meet a left-handed person at the start of a journey. 39 A person giving directions will put their left hand behind them and even physically try to point with their right hand if necessary. In some Asian countries，eating with the left hand is considered impolite.
40 People come to realize that left-handedness is natural. People even noticed that many famous people are left-handed， including Benjamin Franklin， Leonardo Da Vinci， and Charlie Chaplin. Some researchers find out that lefties are more creative and can deal with abstract thinking better. The left-handedness is more easily adaptable to the right-handed world as well. Being left-handed is no longer a sad story now; instead，it is a wonderful gift or maybe it is something you should take pride in.
A. In other words, left-handers are born that way.
B. Left-handedness used to be regarded as a disability.
C. The unfavorable associations of the use of the left hand among cultures are varied.
D. Why do they prefer to use their left hand rather than their right hand for routine activities?
E. Why do some parents force their left-handed children to become right-handed when writing?
F. In Ghana, pointing, gesturing, giving or receiving items with the left hand is considered rude.
G. Fortunately, nowadays most societies and cultures no longer reject left-handedness like before.

I hope my suggestion will be of some help to you. If you have any other questions, just write to me.
