阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从36－55各题所给的四个选项A、B、C和D中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Years ago, I worked at the Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus. One day, as I was passing the elephants, I suddenly stopped, 36 by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. It was 37 that they could, at any time, break free, 38 strangely enough, they didn’t. I asked a trainer the 39 for this.

He said, “When they were very young we used the 40 size rope, and it was enough to hold them. As they grow up, they believe the rope can 41 hold them, so they never try.”

Like the elephants, how many of you believe you cannot do a thing, simply because you 42 once before? Do you often tell 43 “I cannot dance” or “I’m not good at math”? These are 44 of self limiting beliefs. You must realize you’re 45 for them. A limiting belief that says you’re poor at math may have 46 as a reaction to the embarrassing experiences related to math, or the remarks made by someone important to you which 47 you. The cool thing is that because you create the 48 you can choose to change it! Here is how:

First, 49 it with “I am good at math”. Once you change your 50 , your subconsciousness will make this 51 by driving you to act. That might be to take a math course or to go online 52 help, etc. Gradually you’ll really see your math skills are 53 .

This is such a simple process that you can 54 it today. Don’t be like the poor elephant and make your life 55 at a place because of a limiting belief you developed years ago.

36. A. excited B. confused C. discouraged D. worried

37. A. impossible B. doubtful C. uncertain D. obvious

38. A. but B. or C. and D. so

39. A. case B. result C. reason D. choice

40. A. same B. bigger C. smaller D. different

41. A. narrowly B. almost C. still D. hardly

42. A. did B. failed C. tried D. succeeded

43. A. yourself B. others C. your teacher D. your partner

44. A. causes B. stories C. results D. examples

45. A. conscious B. honest C. responsible D. depended

46. A. stopped B. referred C. changed D. originated

47. A. interested B. disappointed C. bored D. inspired

48. A. belief B. experience C. embarrassment D. remark

49. A. represent B. compare C. mix D. replace

50. A. action B. thought C. aim D. plan

51. A. come true B. run out C. on guard D. keep cool

52. A. at B. by C. for D. in

Anyone for kimchi(韩国泡菜)？ Around 2,000 women made the traditional dish last week in Seoul, the capital of the Republic of Korea(ROK).

More than 270 tons of kimchi were produced and handed out to needy neighbours.

In the ROK, kimchi is more than a dish to be eaten with every meal, even though Koreans are said to eat about 40 pounds(around 18kg) of kimchi per person each year.sj.fjjy.org

According to Korean.net, the country’s official multilingual website, kimchi represents

“the spirit” of the Koreans.

Kimchi traditionally has a rosy color. Korea.net says: “The color red wards off (避开) evil spirits. The color represents the spirit of the Korean people and kimchi is more than just a food. It’s a culture.”

A meal without kimchi is unthinkable. So what is kimchi?

Joan Raymond, food writer for US website health.com, writes: “It’s a reddish, fermented (发酵的) cabbage dish , made with a mix of garlic salt, vinegar, chili peppers and other spices.

It is served at every meal, either along with or mixed with rice and noodles. It is part of a high-fiber, low fat diet, which has kept obesity(肥胖) at bay.”

Kimchi is used in everything from soups to pancakes and as a topping (配料) on pizza and burgers.

Health.com named kimchi in its list of the world’s top five healthiest foods as it is rich in vitamins, aids digestion and may even reduce the risk of cancer.

A study conducted by Seoul National University claimed that chickens infected with the H5N1 virus (bird flu) recovered after eating food containing the same bacteria found in kimchi.

When Koreans pose for photos, they say “kimchi”, instead of “cheese”.

56. According to the article, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Kimchi contains something that can kill the H5N1 virus.

B. Kimchi is rated as the healthiest food in the world.

C. Kimchi is a cultural treasure for Koreans.

D. Each person e
