8．February 4，2012saw the take-off of a new rising NBA star-Jeremy Lin．
Among professional basketball players，Jeremy Lin's background is not typical．He graduated from Harvard University，which sends few players to the NBA，and he is the only Chinese-American NBA player．But when you watch him on the court，there is no doubt that he belongs there．He moves with speed and grace that demonstrate years of faithful practice，which is fueled by a love for basketball．
Lin's enjoyment of basketball actually began in Taiwan．When Lin's father moved to U．S．，his interest in the sport only grew and he passed on this love of basketball to his son，introducing him to the game at the age of five．The young Lin spent much of his youth playing basketball for fun．
In high school，Lin dreamed of playing in the NBA．When he applied for college，he was not offered a single sports scholarship．However，after his admission to Harvard，he was offered a place on its college basketball team．
During Lin's time at Harvard，his basketball career began to speed up．He scored 1，482points，making him one of the highest scorers in Ivy League history．
When he graduated，no professional teams offered Lin a contract，but he was invited to play in the NBA Summer League．He played well and ended up eagerly signing a contract with the Golden State Warriors．
At first，playing in professional games filled Lin with excitement．He treasured opportunities to meet players he had been watching on TV for years．But slowly，the excitement wore off and was replaced by anxiety．In a few very difficult months，he was cut by two teams before the New York Knicks picked him up．
But he had the courage and determination to stick to his dream，so he put himself into hard training to get ready for his opportunity to come．Then his moment arrived on February 4，2012，on which his excellent performance made him famous overnight．After that，he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory．
The Associated Press called Lin"the most surprising story in the NBA"．Knicks fans developed the nickname for him"Linsanity"（林来疯）．Time magazine released its 2012list of the 100"Most Influential People in the World"，Jeremy Lin included．
No doubt，Lin fever is continuing to spread．If you haven't already caught"Linsanity"，get ready．
24．Which of the following elements is of little help in Lin's success？D
A．his father's influence
B．his devotion to basketball
C．his years of hard work
D．his graduation from Harvard University
25．What does the phrases"wore off"in seventh paragraph probably mean？B
A．arose
B．disappeared
C．grew
D．remained

6．Dennis Sinar，51，a doctor from New York，is quick to explain why he took a year-long break from his job．"I was pretty burned out after practicing medicine for 26years．I needed a recharge．"So he took a"gap year"，from July 2011to June 2012，to explore things like ancient buildings，and traditional Eastern medicine，in locations including Alaska，Nepal and Romania．
"Taking a break from work is an excellent way for adults to go into a new career or refresh an old one，"said Holly Bull，president of Princeton，N，J．"In recent years，mid-career breaks have been gaining more interest，"she said．A report on adult gap years published this year by a market research company also described the potential American market for gap years as a"sleeping giant．"
"A gap year is a challenge for the older individual to step out of a comfort zone and take a risk．I enjoyed that side most．"said Dr．Sinar，who kept a daily blog about his experience．His time studying Eastern medicine"assured the reasons I went into health care，"said Dr．Sinar，who returned to practice medicine at his old job，although he works fewer days．"I use those experiences to provide my patients with more care，"he added．"And I listen better than I did before．"
George Garritan，chairman of the Department of Leadership and Human Capital Management at New York University，certainly agrees with Dr．Sinar．He said a gap-year experience could be worthwhile for employees and companies．For employees，investing in themselves and improving skill sets is a move that will benefit throughout their career．He added that returning employees feel refreshed and have given more thought to their career．For companies，offering unpaid leaves makes good sense for attracting and keeping talented employees．

A．had lost his old job
B．wanted to refresh after 26years'work

D．more American people will accept the gap year policy

D．Uncertain．

13．Once when I was six years old I saw an amazing picture in a book called True Stories from Nature about the primeval forest．It was a picture of a boa constrictor（大蟒蛇）in the act of swallowing an animal．In the book it said："Boa constrictors swallow their prey whole，without chewing it．After that they are not able to move，and they sleep through the six months that they need for digestion．"
I thought deeply over the adventures of the jungle．And after some work with a colored pencil I succeeded in making my first drawing．My Drawing Number One．I showed my masterpiece to the grown-ups，and asked them whether the drawing frightened them．But they answered："Frighten？Why should any one be frightened by a hat？"
My drawing was not a picture of a hat．It was a picture of a boa constrictor digesting an elephant．But since the grown-ups were not able to understand it，I made another drawing：I drew the inside of a boa constrictor，so that the grown-ups could see it clearly．They always need to have things explained．That's my Drawing Number Two．
The grown-ups'response，this time，was to advise me to lay aside my drawings of boa constrictors，whether from the inside or the outside，and devote myself instead to geography，history，arithmetic，and grammar．That is why，at the age of six，I gave up what might have been a great painter．I had been disheartened by the failure of my Drawing Number One and my Drawing Number Two．Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves，and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them．
So then I chose another profession，and learned to pilot airplanes．I have flown a little over all parts of the world； and it is true that geography has been very useful to me．At a glance I can distinguish China from Arizona．If one gets lost in the night，such knowledge is valuable．
In the course of this life I have had a great many encounters with a great many people．And that hasn't much improved my opinion of them．Whenever I met one of them who seemed to me at all clear-sighted，I tried showing him my Drawing Number One，which I have always kept．I would try to find out if this was a person of true understanding．But，whoever it was，he，or she would always say：That is a hat．Then I would never talk to that person about boa constrictors，or primeval forests，or stars．I would bring myself down to his level．I would talk to him about bridge，and golf，and politics and neckties．And the grown-up would be greatly pleased to have met such an intelligent man．
54．The writer drew his first picture in order toD．
A．show the grown-ups what the book was about
B．frighten the grown-ups trying to enter the forest
C．remind himself of the adventures of the jungle
D．illustrate a boa constrictor'act of digesting an animal
55．How did the writer understand the grown-ups'response to his second drawing？B
A．He was actually only good at academic study．
B．It was a waste of time for him to keep on drawing．
C．He has difficulty in communicating with the adults．
D．He was good at anything but geography．
56．The underlined word disheartened in Paragraph 4could most probably be replaced byA．
A．discouraged
B．dissatisfied
C．discriminated
D．disturbed
57．Which of the following statements is true？D
A．The writer could have become a pilot if encouraged when young．
B．The writer finally changed his opinion of grown-ups．
C．The writer has been showing his two pictures to others ever since．
D．The writer felt nobody could have really understood him．

3．Conventional wisdom is a major barrier to innovation（创新）that threatens the survival of companies everywhere．It's based on the assumption that old ideas will always work，so they shouldn't be challenged．While this may be a valid assumption in situations that don't change，it's unlikely to hold true in a changing situation．In today's rapid changing global environment，old methods often don't work，and stubbornly using them can lead to major problems．
Most people seem to agree with conventional wisdom because it gives one a false sense of security．If everyone else believes it，then it must be true．Individuals who use conventional wisdom are certain that they are right，and being right is good．They want to continue using old ideas rather than take risks with changes that might not work．In 1977，Ken Olsen，co-founder and CEO of Digital Equipment Corporation（DEC），stated"There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his home．"Despite being a dominant leader in the computer industry，DEC no longer exists．
People seem to forget that since innovation is a change，there can be no innovation without change．Unfortunately，conventional wisdom prevents leaders，followers and companies from changing and therefore innovating．If companies don't innovate，but their competitors do，the future is likely to be problematic．Breaking from conventional wisdom has led to many of the most innovative companies and products in history across many industries，so it has a powerful effect on business success．
Ted Turner（founder of CNN） knew little，if anything，about the news business，but he knew it was inconvenient to watch news only at the dinner hour，as was common before CNN．Turner's solution was to create a cable channel devoted to news 24hours a day．The news establishment reflected conventional wisdom at the time，and predicted his idea would fail because no one wanted to watch the news all day．However，it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that viewers don't have to watch the news all day for the CNN to work．Viewers just have to watch when they want to get information．Due to conventional thinking，the critics failed to recognize the opportunity that was clear to Ted．They assumed that only what was familiar to them could work in the future．
Conventional wisdom prevents creativity，flexibility and risk-taking，so unconventional leaders enthusiastically break from it．To survive，boom and maintain competitive advantage，companies must be flexible when reacting to change．
32．DEC has disappeared probably becauseA．
A．the CEO stuck to the conventional ideas
B．the consumers didn't like its products
C．the leaders lacked the sense of security
D．the employees took many risks with changes
33．The founding of CNN is used as an example to proveC．
A．missing opportunities could lead to failure
B．watching news at the dinner hour is convenient
C．changing could contribute to business success
D．conventional wisdom influences business success
34．What does the underlined part probably mean？B
A．Rocket scientists can ensure the CNN works properly．
B．It's easy to know people needn't watch the news all the time．
C．It's necessary to understand when people watch the news．
D．Most of the viewers don't like to watch the news at work．
35．The passage is mainly written to tell us thatD．
A．old methods are changing with time
B．opportunities lead to business success
C．successful companies need wise leaders
D．conventional wisdom limits innovation．

10．At the Beijing Olympic Shelly-Ann swept away any doubts about her ability to perform consistently by becoming the first Jamaican woman ever to win the 100meters Olympic gold．
Shelly-Ann is a little woman with a big smile．She has a mental toughness that did not come about by chance．Her journey to becoming the fastest woman on earth has been anything but smooth and effortless．She grew up in Waterhouse，one of Jamaica's toughest and poorest inner-city communities and also a really violent and overpopulated place．Her mother Maxime，one of a family of fourteen，had been an athlete herself as a young girl but，like so many other girls in Waterhouse，had to stop after she had her first baby．Maxime's early entry into the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the determination to ensure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouse's roundabout of poverty．One of the first things Maxime used to do with Shelly-Ann was taking her to the track，and she was ready to sacrifice everything．
It didn't take long for Shelly-Ann to realize that sports could be her way out of Waterhouse．On a summer evening in Beijing in 2008，all those long，hard hours of work and commitment finally bore fruit．The barefoot kid who just a few years previously had been living in poverty，surrounded by criminals and violence，had written a new chapter in the history of sports．
But Shelly-Ann's victory was far greater than that．The night she won Olympic gold in Beijing，the routine murders in Waterhouse and the drug wars in the neighbouring streets stopped．The dark cloud above one of the world's toughest criminal neighbourhoods simply disappeared for a few days．"I have so much fire burning for my country，"Shelly said．She plans to start a foundation for homeless children and wants to build a community centre in Waterhouse．She hopes to inspire the Jamaicans to lay down their weapons．She intends to fight to make it a woman's as well as a man's world．
As Muhammad Ali puts it，"Champions aren't made in gyms．Champions are made from something they have deep inside them．A desire，a dream，a vision．"One of the things Shelly-Ann can be proud of is her understanding of this truth．

4．What made Maxime decide to train her daughter on the track？C．
A．Her success and lessons in her career．
B．Her interest in Shelly-Ann's quick profit．
C．Her wish to get Shelly-Ann out of poverty．
D．Her early entrance into the sprinting world．
5．What can we infer from Shelly-Ann's statement underlined in Paragraph 4？B．
A．She was highly rewarded for her efforts．
B．She was eager to do more for her country．
C．She became an athletic star in her country．
D．She was the envy of the whole community．
6．By mentioning Muhammad Ali's words，the author intends to tell us thatD．
A．players should be highly inspired by coaches
B．great athletes need to concentrate on patience
C．hard work is necessary in one's achievements
D．motivation allows great athletes to be on the top
7．What is the best title for the passage？A．
A．The Making of a Great Athlete
B．The Dream for Championship
C．The Key to High Performance
D．The Power of Full Responsibility．
