• 1．IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED J．K．Rowling
     "It is impossible to live without failing at something，unless you live so carefully that you tell you that failure is fun．But the knowledge that you have appeared wiser and stronger from failures means that you are，ever after，secure in your ability to survive．"
     Richard Branson
     "My mother always taught me never to look back in regret but to move on to the next thing．The amount of time people waste dwelling on failures rather than putting that energy into another project always amazes me．"

     Michelle Kwan
     "I started figure skating at the age of five，and the first thing my coach taught me was how to fall．I remember looking up with a puzzled expression，thinking，Shouldn't I be learning to any times throughout my career and that I'd need to learn how to handle it．"
     Laura Linney

• 2．Using pictures from an orbiting spaceship，scientists have discovered eight spots With huge ice deposits（冰沉積物） near the Martian surface at the middle latitudes（緯度），which is a possible source（來源）of water that could help support future human lives．
     While scientists already knew that about one-third of the surface of Mars contains skin-deep ground ice and that its poles（極地） hold major ice deposits，the research published on Thursday described thick underground ice sheets in an unexpected area．
     "It was surprising to find ice exposed at the surface at these places．In the mid-latitudes，it's normally covered by a blanket of dust，" said research scientist Colin Dundas，who led the study．
     The findings showed that ice may be more available for use as water to support future human explorations，perhaps even the setup of a lasting Mars base．The water could be used for drinking and possibly change into oxygen （O₂） to breathe．
     "Humans need water wherever they go，and it's very heavy to carry with you．Former ideas for getting human-usable water from Mars were to pull it from the very dry atmosphere or to break down water-containing rocks，" said scientist Shane Byme，a co-author of the study in the journal Science．
     "Here we have what we think is almost pure water ice buried just below the surface，" Byme added，which means you don't need a high-tech solution．
     "You can go out with a large container and just collect as much water as you need．I think it's kind of a game-changer．It's also much closer to places humans would probably land，compared with the polar areas which are very unfriendly．"
  
  （1）What is Special about the newly found ice deposits on Mars？

  
  A．Thy are the first ice deposits．
  B．They are the largest ice deposits．
  C．They are found on unexpected areas．
  D．They are the only source of drinking water．
  （2）Which is not a possible way of getting water on Mars？

  
  A．Changing oxygen into water．
  B．Pulling water from the atmosphere．
  C．Collecting water from ice deposits．
  D．Breaking down water-containing rocks．
  （3）Why does Byme think the new finding is a "game-changer" in the last paragraph？

  
  A．It changes the way people play games on Mars．
  B．It makes it possible for humans to land on Mars．
  C．It makes it easier for humans to get water on Mars．
  D．It changes people's understanding of the polar areas．
  （4）What is the best title for the passage？

  
  A．A new way to get water
  B．A lasting Mars base is set up
  C．Humans cannot survive without water on Mars
  D．The Martian ice deposits could support humans

     Make a point of looking for beauty in the world，and you could improve general happiness．A study in the journal Personality and Individual Differences found that people who wrote down three beautiful human behaviors，three examples of natural beauty，and three other beautiful things they noticed every day were happier after one month than those who didn't．（4）
