What do the world's most successful people all have in common?
By examining the work habits of over 150 greatest writers and artists and scientists, the researchers including Stanford professor Jeffrey Pfeiffer found that high achievers like Robert Moses turned out to be all alike:
Busy! Busy!
In a study of general managers in industry, John Kotter reports that many of them work 60 to 65 hours per week—which translates into at least six 10-hour days. The ability and willingness to work difficult and tiring hours has characterized many powerful figures. Energy and strength provide many advantages to those seeking to build power.
Just Say No!
The difference between successful people and very successful people is that very successful people say “no” to almost everything. And that's what gives them the time to accomplish so much. And focus means saying “no” to a lot of distractions (分神).

Ignore your weaknesses and keep improving your strengths. Don't waste time exploring skill areas where you have little competence. Instead, focus on—and build on—your strengths. This means knowing who you are, what you are and what you are good at.
Create Good Luck！
There's a science to it. Richard Wiseman studies lucky people for his book Luck Factor, and breaks down what they do right. Certain personality types are luckier because they behave in a way that offers the chance for good opportunities. By being more outgoing, open to new ideas, following the feeling that something is true, and being optimistic, lucky people create possibilities.
Does applying these principles to your life actually work? Wiseman created a “luck school” to test the ideas—and it was a success. In total, 80 percent of the people who attended Luck School said that their luck had increased.
A. Spend enough time to improve your weakness.
B. Achievement requires focus.
C. On average, these people reported that their luck had increased by more than 40 percent.
D. They never stop working and they never lose a minute.
E. Busy people are more likely to be lucky.
F. Know What You Are!
G. Luck isn't magical.

Answer 1

【答案】D；B；F；G；C
【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了成功人士身上存在的三个共同特点：Busy! Busy! Just Say No! Create Good Luck！
（1）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据下文中的“that many of them work 60 to 65 hours per week—which translates into at least six 10-hour days.”可知很多成功人士每周工作60-65小时，一天至少工作10小时。说明他们几乎一直在工作，从不懈怠。故D项正确。
（2）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据下文“And focus means saying ’no‘ to a lot of distractions (分神).”可知focus就是拒绝很多分神的事情，也就是说要聚焦于自己要做的事情。所以B项“Achievement requires focus.”符合上下文串联。
（3）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据 下文“Ignore your weaknesses and keep improving your strengths.”忽略自己的弱点并不断提升自己的优势。也就是说成功人士要对自己有清楚的了解。故F项为本段中心思想。
（4）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据下文“There's a science to it.”可知运气并不是偶然的，在运气里有必然存在的科学依据。故G项“Luck isn't magical.”符合本段中心思想。
（5）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据上文“In total, 80 percent of the people who attended Luck School said that their luck had increased.”可知进入Luck学校中很多人通过个人努力最后都取得了很好的运气。故C项说法正确。
