Our story began in 1768 in Madrid, Spain. The king of Spain, Charles the Third, had recently received reports that worried him. The reports said Russian explorers were in the northern part of the territory (领土) called California. __ But Spain had no settlements in California. King Charles knew if the Russians began to settle the area, Spain might lose control of California forever.
King Charles decided the best way to keep the Spanish claim (主权要求) to California was to build settlements there. So he decided to order the creation of a series of small farming communities along the Pacific Ocean coast of California. ____
Spanish citizens might want to settle there. Therefore, the Spanish claim to California would be safe.______ King Charles and his advisors decided that the farming settlements would begin with churches called missions. Missions were places where Roman Catholic religious leaders converted people to the Christian religion.

King Charles decided Roman Catholic priests would build the missions and settlements with the help of Native American Indians. The priests would teach the native people the Christian religion, the Spanish language and how to farm.

| A．The settlements would provide trade and grow into larger cities. |
| B．Spain had claimed most of that area more than 200 years earlier. |

根据短文内容，从下框的A—F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。
E
| A. Don’t be afraid of risks. B. Find ways to solve problems. C. Learn from successful people. D. Don’t give up easily. E. Know the meaning of success. F. Enjoy facing your failure. |
You cannot have success if you don’t know what it means to you. Set clear goals and be realistic. Your standards should be specific or else you will spend your entire time chasing after a vague goal. For example, you want to be good at your job. However, this is not a specific goal. Instead, specify this goal as: “My goal is to only be late for work five times per year, at the most.” This is a specific goal that when achieved, give you a sense of satisfaction and completion, making you feel successful and confident.
Look around---who has the success that you envision（想象）for yourself? What are they doing? How do they come near a successful life? Become their students. Ask them for advice. Spend time around them, if you can. Learn from them. They will bring you much useful experience.
Successful people think big and act big. It can be scary to do, but if you don’t, then how will you ever be successful? Don’t wait for opportunities. Dig them out. Successful people make big investments (in their careers, in their business, in their education) and all investments involve some degree of risk. Study your risks, and be brave.
People who are successful like solving problems and answering questions. No matter where you are or what you are doing, look around and try to think of ways you can find, for example, what are people struggling with or complaining about? How can you make life easier for them in an effective way? Can you redesign or reorganize some aspects of the situation so that things can run more smoothly?
You should learn to persist. It is also the key factor to success. When asked about his 10,000 failed attempts to develop a storage battery, the prolific（多产的）American inventor Thomas Edison replied: “I have not failed; I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work. So, if your first attempt didn’t work, don’t quit and don’t give up.”
You will have a lot of reading to do in this grade this year．You can do more of it in less time if you learn to read rapidly．Perhaps you have been told about some habits which keep a person from reading fast and have been strongly asked to break those which you might have． Check yourself by answering "yes" or "no" to these questions．
Do you move your lips （嘴唇） when reading silently?
Do you point to words with your finger as you read?
If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, start at once to break the habit．If you move your lips, hold your fingers over them, or hold a piece of paper between your lips while you are reading．
If you point to words, hold the two sides of your book, one side with your left hand, the other side with your right hand． If you move your head, place your chin （下巴）in one hand and hold your head still ．
If you read no more than one or two three words at a time, you need to work very hard in learning to take in more words at each glance as your eyes travel across the lines of words．
| A．Do you read without any sound? |
| B．Do you read one word at a time? |
| C．Do you still have any of these bad habits? |
| D．Do you move your head from side to side as you read? |
E．Then you will have too much time to understand the words?
F．Then if your lips move, you will know it and can stop them．
G．Then you won't have a free finger to use in pointing while reading．
