One of my fondest memories as a child is going by the river and sitting idly on the bank．There I would 36 the peace and quiet, watch the water rush 37 and listen to the singing of birds and the rustling of 38 in the trees．I would also watch the bamboo trees 39 under pressure from the wind and watch them 40 gracefully to their original position after the wind had 41 ．
When I think about the bamboo tree's ability to bounce back to its original position, the word "resilience" comes to mind．When used in 42 to a person, this word means the ability to readily 43 from shock, depression or any other situation that stretches the limits of a person's 44 ．
Have you ever felt like you are at your 45 point? Thankfully, you have survived the experience to live to talk about it．
During the 46 you probably felt a mix of emotions that threatened your health．You felt emotionally drained（枯竭）, 47 exhausted and you most likely stood 48 physical symptoms．
Life is a 49 of good times and bad times, happy moments and unhappy moments．The next time you are experiencing one of those bad times or unhappy 50 that take you close to your breaking point, bend, 51 don't break．Try your best not to let the situation get the best of you．
A measure of hope will take you 52 the unpleasant ordeal （考验）．With 53 for a better tomorrow or a better situation, things may not be as bad as they seem to be．The unpleasant ordeal may be easier to 54 if the final result is worth having．
If life gets 55 and you are at your breaking point, show resilience．Like the bamboo tree, bend, but don't break!

“Down-to-earth” means someone or something that is honest, practical and easy to deal with. It is 36 to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to and 37 other people as equals. A down-to-earth person is just the 38 of someone who acts important and proud.
Down-to-earth persons 39 be important members of society, of course. 40 they do not let their importance “go to their heads”. They do not 41 themselves to be better persons than others of less importance. Someone who is filled with his own importance and pride, often without cause, is 42 to have “his nose in the air”. There is 43 way a person with his nose in the air can be down-to-earth.
Americans 44 another expression that means almost the same as “down-to-earth”. The expression is “both-feet-on-the-ground”. Someone with both-feet-on-the-ground is a person with a good 45 of reality. He 46 what is called “common sense”. He may have 47 , but he does not allow them to 48 his knowledge of what is real.
The opposite kind of 49 is one who has his “head-in-the-clouds”. A man with his-head-in-the-clouds is a dreamer whose 50 is not in the real world.
51 , such a dreamer can be brought back to earth. 52 words from a teacher can usually bring a day-dreaming student down-to-earth.
Usually, the person who is down-to-earth is very 53 to have both feet on-the –ground. 54 we have both our feet on-the –ground, when we are down-to-earth, we act 55 and openly towards others. Our lives are like the ground below us, solid and strong.

Christy decided to get together with other trail9 to ask the city council to 10 a bike path along the unused land. Christy 11 a petition (请愿书). She and other riders asked all of their biking friends if they would12 the list, and they gathered 300 signatures. The city council evaluated the 13 and, more 14 , agreed to allow the bike trail.

For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A,B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
When I was a college student, I did a lot of travelling abroad. That was because a professor 50 me to do so. She said,“Now is the time for you to travel around the world, 51 your knowledge through actual experiences and have fun!” I agreed with her.
Since I started to work for a 52 company, however, I have done most of my travellling through the Internet. By using the Internet, I have seen the sights of many cities on my computer screen. And I have really made business 53 , too. With the help of the Internet, I have also got 54 about food in different countries.
Therefore, I was beginning to feel that actual trips were 55 necessary when I happened to read a famous chef’s comment on the Internet. He said,“It is very difficult to have real Italian food in a foreign country, because we enjoy food and the atmosphere around us at the same time. So why don’t you fly over to Italy and enjoy real Italian 56 ?” Those words reminded me of my 57 advice. As information technology 58 ,you might be able to do without making some real trips. But this also means that you will miss the various 59 you can get from travelling.
Today there are people who 60 direct communication with others and spend much of their time on the Internet. It is not surprising to see a group of people 61 not with each other but into their micro phones. It seems as if such people are 62 by an invisible wall. They seem to be losing out on a good chance to 63 and talk with other people. I do not think that they are taking good advantage of information technology. We should use information technology as a tool to make our daily communication more fruitful. However, we should never let it 64 our time for face-to-face communication. Let’s make use of information technology more wisely, and have great fun in experiencing the actual world.
