If you don’t know that _____ failure is the mother of success, you are sure to be _____ failure in life.

A./; /B.a; aC.a ; /D./; a

D

解析试题分析:考查冠词。第一空后的failure是一个抽象名词“失败”;与success一样,都要单独使用。第二空的failure指失败的人,或者失败的事情;是可数名词,所以第二空前加上a。句意:如果你知道失败是成功之母,在生活中你就一定会是一个成功的人。故D正确。
考点:考查冠词。
点评:本题考查的是抽象名词单独使用,不要冠词。有时候抽象名词具体化以后就变成了可数名词,就可以加冠词a/an了。

A jobless man applied for the position of “office boy” at Microsoft. The HR manager interviewed him and then watched him cleaning the floor as a test.

“You are employed,” he said. “Give me your e-mail address and I’ll send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start.”

The man replied,“But I don’t have a computer, neither an e-mail.”

“I’ m sorry,” said the HR manager.“If you don’t have an e-mail,that means , you do not exist. And who doesn’t exist cannot have the job.”

The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do with only ten dollars in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy 10 kg tomatoes. He then sold the tomatoes from door to door. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the operation three times, and returned home happily with 60 dollars.

The man realized that he could survive in this way, and started to go every day earlier, and return late. Thus, his money doubled or tripled every day. Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles. Five years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers(销售商) in the US.

He started to plan his family’s future and decided to have a life insurance. He called an insurance broker(经纪人)and chose a protection plan.

When the conversation was concluded the broker asked him his e-mail. The man replied, “I don’t have an e-mail.”

The broker answered curiously,“You don’t have an e-mail, and yet have succeeded to build an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an e-mail?" The man thought for a while and replied,“Yes,I’d be an office boy at Microsoft!”
