D
Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Which statement do you prefer? Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we’re the apple of our parents’ eyes, and that our Grandmas think we’re great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics, but sometimes it’s probably struggling to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time for you to move a step to a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.
Self-image is your own mind’s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, statistics show that our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be and it seems we are much stricter with ourselves. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to strengthening the confidence and changing your self-image and your whole world.
The best way to defeat a passive self-image and stay confident is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don’t allow doubts to occur in it.
It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you are usually too strict with yourself or too stubborn and can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you’re silly because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you’re weak because you can’t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you’re dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, go straight to a shop to buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesn’t mean it’s true.
The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far too subjective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and the style of doing things and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat (拍) yourself on the back, you’ll know you’re well on your way. Never submit to your negative self-image! Good luck!

第II卷 (滿分35分)
第一節(jié)：閱讀表達(dá)(共5個(gè)小題，每小題2分，滿分10分)
閱讀短文，并按照題目要求用英語(yǔ)回答問題。
Last week, my granddaughter started kindergarten, and I wished her success. I was lying. What I actually wish for her is failure. I believe in the power of failure.
Success is boring. Success is proving that you can do something that you already know you can do, or doing something correctly the first time, which can often be an uncertain victory. First-time success is usually a piece of luck. First-time failure, by contrast, is expected. It is the natural order of things.
Failure is how we learn. I have been told of an African phrase describing a good cook as she who has broken many pots. If you’ve spent enough time in the kitchen to have broken a lot of pots, probably you know a lot about cooking. I once had a dinner with a group of chefs, and they spent time comparing knife wounds and burn scars. They knew how much certainty their failures gave them.
I earn my living by writing a daily newspaper column. Each week I am aware that one column is going to be the worst column. I don’t set out to write it. I try my best every day and I have learned to cherish that column. Often in my columns of poor quality, I am trying to get through something I’ve never done before, something I’m not even sure can be done.My younger daughter is a trapeze artist (蕩秋千演員). She spent three years putting together an act. She did it successfully for years. There was no reason for her to change the act, but she did anyway. She said she was no longer learning anything new and she was bored.
So she changed the act. She risked failure and public embarrassment in order to feed her soul. My granddaughter is a perfectionist. She will feel her failures. I hope I can tell her, though, that it isn’t the end of the world. Indeed, with luck, it is the beginning.
56. What’s the writer’s lie to his granddaughter? (No more than 6 words)
57. What does the writer want to express by giving the experience of different people? (No more than 15 words)
58. What does the underlined phrase “by contrast” mean? (No more than 5 words)
59. Why does the writer’s daughter change the act? (No more than 10 words)
60. Do you agree with the last two sentences “I hope I can tell her, though, that it isn’t the end of the world. Indeed, with luck, it is the beginning.”? Why or Why not? (No more than 25 words)

Dear Miss White,
I’m Li Hua, a student of No. 1 Middle School. I am writing this letter to thank you for returning my wallet, ID card and so on.
On my way to the library last week, I lost my bag due to my carelessness. In the bag were my wallet with some money, ID card and other documents. As you know, my ID card and student card are very important to me. I was very worried and even sleepless. I was really at a loss when I was informed to go to the Students’Union and take back what I had lost, where I learned that it was you who picked up my bag and kindly handed it in timely.
It was such a pleasant surprise that I’d like to express my thanks to you. What a good example you have set for me to learn from!
Best wishes.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
