Pete Rose,the famous baseball player,whom I have never met,taught me something so valuable that it changed my life.Pete was being interviewed in spring training the year he was about to break Ty Cobb's all-time hits record.One reporter asked, “Pete,you only need 78 hits to break the record.How many at-bats(轮到击球) do you think you'll need to get the 78 hits?” Without hesitation,Pete said,“78.” The reporter yelled back,“Ah,come on Pete.You don't expect to get 78 hits in 78 at-bats,do you?”
Mr.Rose calmly shared his rule in life with all the reporters who were anxiously awaiting his reply.“Every time I step up to the plate,I expect to get a hit!If I don't expect to get a hit,I have no right to step in the batter's box in the first place!If I go up hoping to get a hit,then I probably don't have a prayer of getting a hit.It is the positive expectation that has gotten me all of the hits in the first place.”
When I thought about Pete Rose's rule and how it was applied to everyday life,I felt a little embarrassed.As a business person,I was hoping to make my sales meet the quotas(定额).As a father,I was hoping to be a good dad.As a married man,I was hoping to be a good husband.The truth was that I was an adequate salesperson,I was not so bad as a father,and I was an okay husband.I immediately decided that being okay was not enough! I wanted to be a great salesperson,a great father and a great husband.I changed my attitude to one of positive expectations,and the results were amazing.I was fortunate enough to win a few sales trips,I won Coach of the Year in my son's baseball league,and I shared a loving relationship with my wife!Thanks,Mr.Rose!
1.Which of the following sayings can most appropriately be used to describe Mr.Rose's rule?
A. He who doesn't want to be a general can't be a good soldier.
B. Before everything else,getting ready is the secret of success.
C. If you work hard enough,your dreams will come true.
D. Rome was not built in one day.
2.What can be inferred about Pete Rose from the passage?
A. He was generous to share all his rules with everyone.
B. He got all the hits he wanted because of good luck.
C. He set himself a goal of being the best.
D. He liked to dream of something impossible.
3.By saying “I was an adequate salesperson” (in Para.3) the writer probably means “________”.

When I was trying to find a place where to spend my December holidays, I met by chance some cheap flights to Iceland. After checking just a few winter pictures of Iceland, I realized that the country, known as the land of fire and ice, during the cold months of the year could offer me experiences I had never had before.
For sure you can’t miss the chance to go to Iceland in winter if your traveling wish list includes at least one of the crazy experiences Iceland can offer. Iceland in the North Atlantic Ocean is a paradise (乐园) for all those who want to see the northern lights, experience cold weather conditions and put themselves in geothermal (地热的) baths while the snow is falling on their head.
The best way to move around Iceland is with a rental car. Distances are huge and public transport in winter is not really common out of the major towns. As we wanted to be even more convenient we decided to rent a small camper (野营车). Sleeping and cooking in a camper saved us a lot of driving, money and gave us the chance to be always in the right place at the right time.
There were also no locals and in many cases no tourist facilities (设备). For us, as we slept in a camper, it was easier. But for tourists traveling by normal cars it is necessary to check the opening times of hotels and restaurants as many of them run just from June to September.
It is amazing to experience how the weather is changing in Iceland. However, Icelanders prefer to stay inside their houses. They have even no time to complain about the weather in December. All they care about is Christmas. They love to decorate their houses, sing Christmas songs and eat typical Christmas food.
1.Why is Iceland famous as the land of fire and ice?
A. Because tourists would like to play with fire on the ice.
B. Because it is too dry to easily cause fire to happen.
C. Because there exist hot springs and freezing ice.
D. Because it is hot inside a house and cold outside.
2.What did the author think of the rented camper?
A. It was convenient but cost them more money.
B. It was not only practical but also economical.
C. It provided the best chance to see the new country.
D. It was much faster than other public transport.
3.What does the last paragraph imply?
A. The joy of Christmas drives the freezing weather away.
B. The Icelanders prefer to live with their family.
C. December is the coldest month of the year.
D. The Icelanders are always positive and stay outside.
