Consideration and wisdom are necessary before we do everything. Having taken a course of action without 36 , we find at once too many difficulties, small or big, preventing our 37 . If we avoid acting hurriedly, we can avoid most of our troubles, For instance, a young man has a gift 38 , teaching and doing research work. What a foolish act 39 would be for him to go and work as a businessman! Most of us40 to have a satisfactory life because they have selected a job for 41 they don’t mean to go in. Without 42 into consideration our means and abilities for a particular business we should not run 43 into it.
However, too much care and fear 44 in failure. It is a mistake to hesitate or delay action when instant action is 45 When a swimmer has to save a drowning man, he must act at once without delay. 46 to rescue a child or a woman from a burning 47 we must rush in without hesitation. 48 there is no room for delay and hesitation, there 49 be no hesitation and delay. If there is too much care, too much fear of risks, results are often attended with 50.
So, 51 with combination of consideration, courage and confidence can we get 52 any difficulty. We can be successful and realize our aims in life only by just getting the three points 53 together.

IV.阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）
A
The man who brings my milk used to knock for his money for a week’s mild while I was eating breakfast on Saturday morning. Just lately he has been arriving before I get up. Staff shortage means that four men are sharing rounds, so he has to start earlier.
Delivering milk to people’s homes is scarcely good business, especially when the customer may have a choice of two three firms serving a single road. In spite of the local difficulties, however, labor troubles are not as severe as a few years ago. There are enough men prepared to get up early for the sake of an open-air job with a fair measure of freedom. If they did stop calling, women would find it hard work to collect all the milk they need from self-service stores. Dairies are aware that stopping deliveries in the United States resulted in falling sales.
Marketing ideas have included introducing extra lines, in addition to dairy products, which milkmen can carry to increase sales. Already they have taken over many rounds given up by bakeries. One dairyman said, “It won’t be long before the milkman delivers more bread than milk.” Some milkmen deliver potatoes, and it seems as though the variety will be limited only by the sizes of the vans.
So the milkman is likely to remain a familiar figure, and the dairy products he sells are unlikely to change very much in this decade. Flavored milk is popular on the continent. In Britain those who like it buy plain milk and add their own flavoring. Even the returnable bottles continue to be used. As long as it has a reasonable life—30 to 40 trips are usual —the cost of collection and cleaning is worthwhile.
56. We are told that the milkman now sets out on his delivery rounds earlier than he used to because of______
A. an increasing demand of milk
B. more early-rising customers.
C. the need to collect money.
D. an increasing workload.
57. Milkmen’s attempts to sell more bread from their delivery vans have meant that____.
A. milkmen have taken over some bakery rounds.
B. more bread than milk is now sold by milkmen.
C. people buy more bread from milkmen than from bakers.
D. bakeries are asking milkmen to deliver bread.
58. The passage indicates that during the next ten years or so, dairy firms will_____.
A. gradually cease selling milk.
B. have to offer a wider variety.
C. take more notice of the changes in customers’ tastes.
D. produce the same kind of products
59. What does the last sentence in Paragraph 3 “…and it seems as though variety will be limited only by the size of the vans” imply?
A. The vans with which the milkmen deliver milk are too small.
B. The milkmen complained about the variety of goods they deliver.
C. If the vans allow, the milkmen can deliver a large variety of goods.
D. The variety of things delivered by the milkmen will be limited in the future.
60.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A. The Variety of Delivering.
B. A Good Business: Delivering Milk.
C. Delivering Milk: the Present and Future.
D. Extra Lines in Milk-Delivering
B
If I has to select a word that best describes the majority of American parents, that word would be GUILT-RIDDEV. How sad it is to see parents become the willing victims of the “give-me game”, only to discover that no matter what they do, it isn’t enough. In the end, they are blamed when their spoiled children get into trouble. With this in mind, I shall first answer the question: “What do parents owe their children?” and I shall start with what they don’t owe them.
Parents don’t owe their children every minute of their day and every ounce of their energy. They don’t owe them round-the-clock car service, singing lessons, tennis lessons, expensive bicycles, a motorcycle or a car when they reach sixteen, or a trip to Europe when they graduate.
I take the firm position that parents do not owe their children a college education. If they can afford it, they can certainly send them to the best universities. But they needn’t feel guilty if they can’t. If the children want to go, they’ll find a way. There are plenty of loans and scholarships for the bright and eager who can’t afford to pay.
After children marry, their parents do not owe them their down payment on a house or money for the furniture. They do not have an obligation to baby-sit or to take their grandchildren in their home when the parents are on vacation. If they want to do it, it must be considered a favor, not an obligation.
In my opinion, parents do not owe their children an inheritance, no matter how much money they have. One of the surest ways to produce a loafer is to let children know their future is assured（有保证的）.
61. Whom is the author blaming in the passage?
A. The guilty parents.
B. The spoilt children.
C. All the American parents.
D. Both the parents and the children.
62. According to the author,_____
A. parents ought to send their children to college as a duty.
B. parents needn’t feel guilty if they are unable, for whatever the reason, to send their children to college
C. if they can’t afford it, parents should take loans to send their children to go to college
D. parents must support their children even after their marriage.
63. The underlined word “loafer” in the last paragraph most probably refers to______
A. a poorly-educated person.
B. a well-educated person
C. a hard-working person
D. a lazy person.
64. The author’s attitude towards the parents is______
A. angry B. pitiful C. disappointed D. satisfied
65. The author mainly talks about in this passage that_____
A. why children look down upon their parents.
B. the difference between duties of the parents and the children.
C. over-devotion to the children results in trouble for the parents themselves.
D. why American children get into trouble.
C
Fear and its companion, pain are two of the most useful things that men and animals possess, if they are properly used. If fire did not hurt when it burned, children would play with it until their hands were burned away. Similarly, if pain existed but fear did not, a child would burn itself again and again, because fear would not warn it to keep away from the fire that had burnt it before. A really fearless soldier-and some do exist-is not a good soldier because he is soon killed; and a dead soldier is of no use to his army. Fear and pain are therefore two guards without which men and animals might soon die out.
In our first sentence we suggested that fear ought to be properly used. If, for example, you never go out of your house because of the danger of being knocked down and killed in the street by a car, you are letting fear rule you too much. The important thing is not to let fear rule you, but instead, to use fear as your servant and guide. Fear will warn you of dangers; then you have to decide what action to take.
In many cases, you can take quick and successful action to avoid the danger. For example, you see a car coming straight towards you; fear warns you, you jump out of the way, and all is well.
In some cases, however, you decide that there is nothing that you can do to avoid the danger. For example, you cannot prevent an airplane crashing into your house, and you may not want to go and live in a desert where there are no airplanes. In this case, fear has given you its warning; you have examined it and decided on your course of action, so fear of this particular danger is no longer of any use to you, and you have to try to overcome it.
66. Children would play with fire until their hands were burnt away if_____
A. they were not well educated at school.
B. they had never burnt themselves before.
C. they had no sense of pain
D. they were fearful of pain
67. According to the writer, which of the following is true?
A. A fearless soldier is always a good soldier.
B. The example that an airplane may crash on your house means fear exists everywhere, you should pay much attention to it.
C. You can take quick and successful action to avoid all the dangers around you.
D. We should value fear properly so that we can live comfortably.
68. People sometimes succeeded in timely avoiding danger because_____
A . they have gained experience
B. they jump out of the way in time.
C. they remain calm in face of danger.
D. they are warned of the danger and take quick action.
69. What is implied but not stated in the passage?
A. Fear is always something helpful.
B. Fear is something that can be avoided.
C. Fear ought to be used as our guide in our life.
D. Too much fear is harmful.
70. The best title for this passage is_____
A. No pains, no gains
B. Fear and actions.
C. The value of fear.
D. The reason why people fear.
