During an experiment，a biologist put a shark and several small fish into a large tank(容器). After the shark found the small fish，it began to attack and eat them. The biologist then placed a strong piece of clear glass into the tank，creating two separate parts. She put the shark in one part of the tank and a new group of fish in the other.

The shark quickly attacked. This time，however，the shark knocked into the glass divider. The shark kept this behavior every few minutes but it failed. Meanwhile，the small fish swam around safely in the other part. About an hour later，the shark gave up. This experiment was repeated several times over the next few weeks. Each time，the shark got less aggressive(攻击性) and didn’t want to try attacking the small fish，until the shark got tired of hitting the glass divider and simply stopped attacking.

The biologist then removed the glass divider，but the shark didn’t attack. The sha rk was trained to believe there was a barrier between itself and the small fish. So the fish swam wherever they wished，without danger. In fact，after experiencing failures，we may stop trying. We believe that

we were unsuccessful in the past，so we will always be unsuccessful. In other words，we continue to see a barrier in our heads，even when there is no “real” barrier between where we are and where we want to go.

I walked home bleeding, scaring my mother, and was sent to the hospital. However, I wasn’t scared myself.

One month later, I was riding my bicycle at a high speed again. I started to apply my brakes ( 刹

车) when I saw a pothole (路面坑洞) in the road. I hit them as hard as I could. Thankfully, this time I landed on my back in the soft grass of a field along the side of the road. Remembering the injures I had last time, I was afraid what had just happened and decided never to ride my bike so fast again.

I am 51 years old now and I am still fond of adventuring. Although my bike-riding days are far behind me, my adventures these days consist of hugging my boys and petting my dogs. Each day when I open my eyes, I am ready for one more “ride” through this life.

At that time，I saw a young girl coming to him. She was carrying a bag full of food from the restaurant. I saw the old man thank the young girl and smile as she gave him a hug.

Try to reach a compromise （和解）. Perhaps you and your parents disagree（有分歧） on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other.

上海中考英语阅读回答问题技巧讲义

上海市初中毕业生统一学业考试英语试卷 阅读部分 F. Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题): ( 12分) 08年 English is an important international language, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy to learn. Many experts have tried to make English easier to learn —but they weren’t always successful. In 1930, Professor C.K. Ogden of Cambridge University invented Basic English. It had only 850 words (and just eighteen verbs) and Ogden said most people could learn it in just thirty hours. The problem was that people who learned Basic English could write and say simple messages, but they couldn’t understand the answers in ‘real’ English! It was also impossible to explain a word if it wasn’t in the Basic English word list. R.E. Zachrisson, a university professor in Sweden, decided that the biggest problem for learners of English was spelling, so he invented a language with the name Anglic. Anglic was similar to English, but with much simpler spelling. ‘Father’ became ‘faadher’, ‘new’ became ‘nue’ and ‘years’ became ‘yeerz’. Unluckily, Anglic never became p opular. In the age of international communication through the Internet, who knows what will happen? ... a new form of English might appear. A large
