There was once a fairy who was learning how to be a fairy godmother. She was the kindest and cleverest of all fairies. However, she was also a very ugly fairy. And no matter how friendly she was to others, it seemed that everyone always believed that the most important thing about a fairy was her beauty. In the fairy country, she was always laughed at. Every time she flew off to help a child or anyone else in trouble, before she could say a word they were already shouting: “Ugly! Get out of here!”

Although she was little, her magic was very powerful because she studied very hard in the fairy school. And more than once she had considered using her magic to make herself beautiful. But then she remembered what her mother had always told her: “My dear, you are what you are, so just be yourself. Remember, you are this way for a very special reason.”

Then, one day, the witches of the neighboring land invaded the country, putting all the fairies in prison. The ugly fairy was helped by her ugly face, since the witches believed all fairies were beautiful. So no witches thought she was a fairy. That way she was able to follow the witches back to their home. Once there she used her magic to prepare a big party for everyone. The witches got really excited. They sang and drank. While the party was in full swing, the fairy hurried off and set free all the fairies. Then they worked together and succeeded in locking the witches inside the mountain for the next hundred years and more, everyone remembered the great bravery and intelligence of the fairy. From that day on, no one in that land ever saw ugliness as a bad thing, and whenever someone ugly was born, people were filled with joy, knowing that for that new person great things waited ahead.

【2013界广东省深圳市高三上期末考试】

When buying from a dealer, the law says that a car must be: As described:

This includes the history of the car as well as its specification．For example, if the dealer

described the car as previously having “one careful lady owner”, it shouldn’t turn out to have had several previous “boy racer” owners.

Of satisfactory quality:

It must meet the standard that a reasonable person would regard as acceptable and be free

from any quality problem．Also, bear in mind that a second-hand car will have a slightly different definition of what is considered “satisfactory”, because there’s certainly an element of wear and tear．

Fit for the purpose:

It must be reasonable fit for any normal purpose and this includes any purpose that you

specify to the seller．

●If any of the above is violated, then in theory, you may have the right to reject the vehicle and

get your money back if you’re reasonably quick. Alternatively, the dealer might offer to replace or repair the car; reduce the price of offering a partial refund (退款). Once you’ve informed the dealer that you wish to reject the car, you must stop using the vehicle.

●If the rejection is not accepted, then it’s up to you to prove your case. You’ll need to pay for

an independent assessment of the car and sue for damages. If you do choose a repair, insist the dealer provide you with a hire car or pay any reasonable traveling expenses thus produced while your new car is in the garage.

●If the car is new, it’s likely that the claim will be too high to be fought. Using the small claims

procedure to you may have to pay for legal representation. All this can be pretty daunting and expensive. You need to weigh up the pros and cons before rejecting a car. Would a repair do just as well? Selecting a dealer who offers a clear exchange policy may help. 31. After the above writing, you will be better at __________.

A. choosing a car C. making a claim

B. dealing with car sellers

A. Asking the dealer to provide you with a hire car. B. Asking the dealer to provide you with repair tool sets. C. Asking the dealer to pay all of your traveling expenses. D. Asking the dealer to return all your money.

【答案】A

社会文化（阅读理解）由 (2012天津,D)改编

You are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or a creator.When you choose to be a victim,the world is a cold and difficult place.“They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering.“They” are wrong and bad,and life is terrible as long as “they” are around.Or you may blame yourself for all your problems,thus internalizing (内化) your victimization.The truth is,your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.

Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently.They know there are individuals who might like to control their lives,but they don’t let this get in the way.They know they have their

weaknesses,yet they don’t blame themselves when they fail.Whatever happens,they have choice in the matter.They believe their dance with each sacred (神圣的) moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.

Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities,yet their experience of life is worlds apart.Victims relish (沉溺) in anger,guilt,and other emotions that cause others—and even themselves—to feel like victims,too.Creators consciously choose love,inspiration,and other qualities which inspire not only themselves,but all around them.Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives.

In reality,all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives.One person,on losing a job or a special relationship,may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for months,years,or even a lifetime.Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief,then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life.

In every moment and every circumstance,you can choose to have a fuller,richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within,and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.

1.What does the word “they” in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?( ) A.People and things around you. B.Opportunities and problems. C.Creators and their choices. D.Victims and their sufferings.

2.According to Paragraph 2,creators . A.seem willing to experience failures in life B.possess the ability to predict future life C.handle ups and downs of life wisely D.have potential to create something new 3.What can we learn from Paragraph 3?( )

A.Creators and victims face quite different things in life. B.Creators and victims are masters of their lives. C.Victims can influence more people than creators. D.Compared with victims,creators are more emotional.
