College, girls, career, and life itself got in the way. In fact, Jack moved clear across the country in pursuit of his dreams. There, in the rush of his busy life, Jack had little time to think about the past and often no time to spend with his wife and son. He was working on his future, and nothing could stop him. ‎ Over the phone, his mother told him, “Mr. Belser died last night. The funeral is Wednesday.” Memories flashed through his mind like an old newsreel as he sat quietly remembering his childhood days. ‎ ‎“Jack, did you hear me?”‎ ‎“Oh, sorry, Mom. Yes, I heard you. It’s been so long since I thought of him. I’m sorry, but I honestly thought he died years ago,” Jack said. ‎ ‎“Well, he didn’t forget you. Every time I saw him he’d ask how you were doing. He’d reminisce about the many days you spent over ‘his side of the fence’ as he put it,” Mom told him. ‎ ‎“I loved that old house he lived in,” Jack said.‎ ‎“You know, Jack, after your father died, Mr. Belser stepped in to make sure you had a man’s influence in your life,” she said ‎ ‎“He’s the one who taught me carpentry,” he said. “I wouldn’t be in this business if it weren’t for him. He spent a lot of time teaching me things he thought were important…Mom, I’ll be there for the funeral,” Jack said. ‎ As busy as he was, he kept his word. Jack caught the next flight to his hometown. Mr Belser’s funeral was small and uneventful. He had no children of his own, and most of his relatives had passed away. ‎ The night before he had to return home, Jack and his Mom stopped by to see the old house next door one more time.‎ Standing in the doorway, Jack paused for a moment. It was like crossing over into another dimension, a leap through space and time. The house was exactly as he remembered. Every step held memories. Every picture, every piece of furniture….Jack stopped suddenly. ‎ ‎“What’s wrong, Jack?” his Mom asked.‎ ‎“The box is gone.” he said. ‎ ‎“What box?” Mom asked. ‎ ‎“There was a small gold box that he kept locked on top of his desk. I must have asked him a thousand times what was inside. All he’d ever tell me was ‘the thing I value most’.” Jack said. ‎ It was gone. Everything about the house was exactly how Jack remembered it, except for the box. He figured someone from the Belser family had taken it. ‎ ‎“Now I’ll never know what was so valuable to him.” Jack said.‎ ‎“I better get some sleep. I have an early flight home, Mom.” ‎ It had been about two weeks since Mr. Belser died. Returning home from work one day, Jack discovered a note in his mailbox “Signature required on a package. No one at home. Please stop by the main post office within the next three days.” the note read. ‎ Early the next day Jack retrieved the package. The small box was old and looked like it had been mailed a hundred years ago. The handwriting was difficult to read, but the return address caught his attention. “Mr. Harold Belser” it read. Jack took the box out to his car and ripped open the package. There inside was the gold box and an envelope. Jack’s hands shook as he read the note inside. ‎ ‎“Upon my death, please forward this box and its contents to Jack Bennett. It’s the thing I valued most in my life.” A small key was taped to the letter. His heart racing, as tears filling his eyes, Jack carefully unlocked the box. There inside he found a beautiful gold pocket watch. ‎ Running his fingers slowly over the finely etched casing, he unlatched the cover. Inside he found these words engraved:‎ ‎“Jack, Thanks for your time! -Harold Belser.” ‎ ‎“The thing he valued most was…my time”‎ Jack held the watch for a few minutes, then called his office and cleared his appointments for the next two days. “Why?” Janet, his assistant asked. ‎ ‎“I need some time to spend with my son,” he said, “Oh, by the way, Janet, thanks for your time!” ‎ ‎46. Why did Jack think Mr. Belser died years ago?‎ A. College and career prevented him from remembering Mr. Bleser.‎ B. Jack was too busy with his business and family to think about Mr. Belser.‎ C. Jack was too busy realizing his dreams to think about Mr. Belser.‎ D. His present busy life washed away his childhood memories.‎ ‎47. Jack’s mother told him on the phone about Mr. Belser EXCEPT that ______.‎ A. Mr. Belser often asked how Jack was doing B. Mr. Belser’s funeral would take place on Wednesday C. Mr. Belser had asked for Jack’s mailing address D. Mr. Belser had pleasant memories of their time together ‎48. Why did Belser send Jack his gold watch?‎ A. Because he was grateful for Jack’s time with him.‎ B. Because he had no children or relatives.‎ C. Because he thought he had to keep his word.‎ D. Because Jack had always wanted it during his childhood.‎ ‎49. Why did Jack say he needed some time to spend with his son?‎ A. He was very tired of his work and wanted to have a good rest.‎ B. He had promised to spare more time to stay with his son.‎ C. He had missed his son and his family for days.‎ D. He came to realize the importance of the time with his family.‎ ‎50. From the passage we can infer ___________.‎ A. Jack was quite upset at Mr. Belser’s death.‎ B. Jack felt it regretful that he hadn’t spent too much time with Mr. Belser.‎ C. Jack brought Mr. Belser much pleasure while learning carpentry.‎ D. Mr. Belser’s child had died before him.‎ D From now on, never spend your precious time thinking of reasons for your failures and shortcomings. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.‎ The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the most awesome machine ever created：the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You were born a winner. You were born rich. You can be a success if only you make the right choice.‎ You cannot be successful without first developing your self-esteem. Your level of self-esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-esteem are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are the perennial(长期的) victims and martyrs. They are leaves tossed(摇摆) by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather.‎ You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for everything that happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident and chance. Successful people realize that they are responsible.‎ Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify the cause, we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we choose to think and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success is dependent upon our level of confidence.‎ If you associate with positive-thinking people, you are definitely going to achieve success. On the contrary, the opposite happens. We are responsible for finding, planting, and nurturing the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks.‎ In short, in all areas of your life, whether they be financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success.‎ ‎51. People with low self-esteem are compared to leaves because they ______________ .‎ A. are ready to change their minds B. are easily affected by windy weather C. don’t have the power to face their fate D. can’t exercise control over themselves ‎52. Losers would think that___________.‎ A. success is the result of hard work B. working hard will lead to success C. their failure is only because of bad luck D. they don’t make efforts to succeed ‎53. It can be inferred from paragraph 5 that__________ .‎ A. whether we will succeed depends on our attitudes B. developing confidence is the key to future success C. thoughts and beliefs are the result of creative mind D. setting our expectations is essential before taking action ‎54. The last paragraph serves as ______________.‎ A. the proof of the author’s points B. the conclusion of the argument C. an introduction to another topic D. a comparison between two views ‎55. Which is the best title for the text?‎ A. Success is a choice. B. The secrets of success.‎ C. Develop our confidence. D. How to achieve success.‎ ‎2017年天津高考英语模拟试题（含答案）‎ 第二部分：书面表达（满分35分）‎ 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题，每题2分，满分10分）‎ Many people think school uniforms (校服) help maintain school discipline (纪律), decreasing the amount of discipline problems.
