I was 17 years old. My brother Kyle and I were thinking about writing a book because it seemed like a good way
to reach others and share what we had learned. However, we were doubtful. Could we really doit? What if no one
liked it? What if we failed? What if…
We had to think differently. As teens, we had little to lose by trying and a lot to lose by letting this opportunity
slip by, so we decided to give it a shot. Locked up in our small 10x10 foot bedroom, which reached 103 degrees on hot
summer days, we just started writing. We wrote a list of goals, people we wanted to meet, things we wanted to own, as
well as inspirational quotations — anything to keep us focused and motivated.
A few weeks later, a family friend offered us two tickets to a local business conference where Jack Canfield was
the keynote speaker. The event was a valuable experience and at the end of it, we waited in line for over thirty minutes
to personally speak with Jack. We shared our book idea with him and he didn't laugh! Instead, he offered us the

support, encouragement, and insight we needed to realize our goal.
We finally completed our first book, Cool Stuff They Should Teach in School. The full process took three and a
half years of hard work and sacrifices, but in the end, it was worth every minute. It was such a strange but rewarding
feeling to walk into a bookstore and see our book on the shelves.
Since its publication, we have enjoyed seeing its impact on other young people and receiving e-mails from
readers almost every day. Sure enough, requests to speak at various venues soon came rolling in.
All of us have opportunities around each day, but most people don't recognize them because they're often
disguised as hard work. It comes down to our ability to see problems as opportunities and our willingness to take a
leap of faith without the guarantee of success. As Michael Nolan once said, ''It's not who we are that holds us back; it's
who we think we're not. ''
4.
The author and his brother decided to write a book .
A.
to get some experience

C.
to call for readers' support

5.
How did they manage to finish their first book?
A.
By focusing on small goals.

C.
By staying focused and motivated.

6.
Why do most people often fail to achieve success?
A.
Because they are actually afraid of hard work.
B.
Because they regard opportunities as problems.
C.
Because they don't have the same opportunities.
D.
Because they don't have the willingness to succeed.
7.
The main purpose of the author's writing the passage is to .
A.
criticize

C.
praise

【答案】
4. D 5. C 6. A 7. D

Last year saw one of the poorest salmon returns on record in North America. Yet, we are eating more fish than
ever before. Aquaculture (
水产养殖
) production has tripled in the last two decades to meet this need, and another
historic move was made by the FDA earlier this year, when a company received the first ever nod to sell a genetically
modified salmon, a bioengineered version of the Atlantic salmon.
US-based AquaBounty, the firm which received the go-ahead, said it would begin stocking fish in supermarkets
''as soon as possible''. The first commercial harvest is expected at the end of 2020. At the moment, Argentina, Brazil
and China have also granted environmental approvals for genetically modified fish farming trials.
This genetically modified salmon is actually a fish injected with the DNA of two other edible fish. The long road
to the current version of the GM fish began in the 1980s when a physiologist named Garth Fletcher read about the

work being done to genetically modify mice and wondered whether it could apply to salmon. He understood that the
fish's growth hormones are most active in some seasons and considered changing this so that the hormones are always
active. Cut to 2019, Fletcher's GM fish is able to reach adult size in 16 to 18 months, compared with 30 months for
natural Atlantic salmon, while consuming 25% less feed.
In the United States, Atlantic salmon is endangered, so catching it is heavily restricted. It is currently imported
from Chile, Norway and Canada. If the production and sales of AquaBounty go as planned, this will all change. And
simultaneously, the company claims that farming the fish in their land-based hatcheries will lower the transportation
cost as well as emissions associated with importing the fish as is currently done.
This has not all been without stiff opposition, and protestors who have sent nearly 2 million comments to the
FDA have had issues on three main fronts. Health risks, being the main one, as it has been with several other
genetically modified foods in the past. The environmental group Earth Action says no one can predict what will
happen when people start eating the fish over time.
8.
What can we learn about AquaBounty?
A.
It is a firm located in Argentina.
B.
It performs research into GM fish.
C.
It deals with the production and sales of fish.
D.
It is the only firm allowed to produce GM fish.
9.

B.
it costs 25% less than imported salmon
C.
it can meet people's ever increasing need
D.

B.

Italy and China has agreed to jointly advance the construction of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) (
一带一
路
), which aims to build a trade and infrastructure network to connect Asia with Europe and Africa along ancient
trade routes. Italy will use this opportunity to cooperate with China to develop its northern ports and the InvestItalia
program, and promote cooperation in all fields.


Despite some skepticism, the BRI has developed into one of the world’s largest cooperation platforms and
become a hot public good. More than 120 countries and 29 international organizations have signed agreements with
China up to date, bringing all sorts of development opportunities to parties of the BRI, including the construction of
Kenya’s first high-speed expressway, the first cross-sea bridge in the Maldives, and the formation of the car industry
in Belarus.
The inclusion of Italy into the BRI makes Italy the first G7 country to formally join the Initiative, and sets a new
milestone in the process of building the Belt and Road.
What makes the BRI unique is that it is an initiative for win-win cooperation rather than zero-sum competition.
As everyone knows, the BRI has its origin in the ancient Silk Road trade route that linked China with many places in
the world, including the Italian cities of Rome and Venice. Italy is a natural fit for the ambitious project because of its
historical connections with China, and also because of the need to be open rather than closed, to cooperate rather than
confront. In this fast-changing world, seeking win-win progress is the best path forward for all countries.
In China, it is said that without a big breakthrough in thinking, there will be no big leap in practice; and without
a big leap in practice, there will be no great development. A number of Chinese ideas and initiatives have been formed
with the goal of building a community of common destiny in mind. Under the BRI, we can expect China to deepen
policy coordination, facilities connectivity, free trade, financial integration, and people-to-people bonds.
The revival of China as a great power is a blessing to the world, contributing to the building of a better world.
