17.The Winner's Guide to Success
Do you know what makes people successful?To find out the answers,an American reporter recently visited some of the most successful people around the world.
(36)G
Be responsible for yourself
Sometimes you may want to blame others for your failure to get ahead.In fact,when you say someone or something outside of yourself is stopping you from making success,you're giving away your own power.(37)D
Write a plan.
It's very difficult to try to get what you want without a good plan.It's just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away.(38)A Without this"map",you may waste your time,money and also your energy; while with the"map",you will enjoy the"trip"and get what you want in the shortest possible time.
(39)F
Nothing great is easy to get.So you must be ready to work hard---even harder than you have ever done.If you are not willing to pay the price,you won't get anything valuable.
Never give up.
(40)BWhen you are doing something,you must tell yourself again and again:Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success,but giving up means the death of hope.

A.A good plan is like a map to you.
B.It seems to us that everyone knows this,but it is easier said than done.
C.Some people achieve success much later in life because they don't work hard  earlier.
D.You're saying,"You have more control over my life than I do."
E.Someone else's opinions of you don't have to become your reality.
F.Be willing to pay the price.
G.Here are some keys to success that they give.

分析 本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了每个人都想成功,但究竟怎么样才可以成功呢?作者在文章中给出了成功人士提出的成功四要素.

解答 36.G.推理判断题.文章接下来的四部分都是这些成功人物给出的关于如何取得成功的建议,所以G项"Here are some keys to success that they give."符合上下文串联,把第一段和下面四部分联系在一起;故选G.
37.D.根推理判断题.据横线前句"In fact,when you say someone or something outside of yourself is stopping you from making success,you're giving away your own power."当你说外界的事物阻止你取得成功,你就是在放弃你自己的权力.也就是说你让其他事物影响你的内心了.故D项正确.
38.A.推理判断题.根据横线前句说明很多人都是在没有计划的情况下就开始的,那么就好像是在一个完全不熟悉的路上开车一样,所谓预则立,所以我们做任何事情,都要有一个详细的计划.故A项符合上下文.
39.F.推理判断题.根据本段最后一句If you are not willing to pay the price,you won't get anything valuable.如果你不愿意付出代价,你将无法获得任何有价值的东西.本段告诉我们要付出一定的代价,才能取得成功.故F项符合上下文串联.
40.B.推理判断题.根据后文Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success,but giving up means the death of hope可知事情做起来是很难的,因此前文为在我们看来,每个人都知道这一点,但说起来容易做起来难;故选B.

点评 考察学生的推理判断能力和联系上下文的能力,在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.此类的填空题一定要联系上下文,根据上下文的内容加上自己的理解,再作出正确的判断.

7.There is a problem discussed by people about whether parents should hit their children?Or should they ever beat them?
Research suggests many of us are likely to respond"no",and public support for spanking(打屁股)has been falling over the years.But surveys also show that 75 percent to nearly 90 percent of parents admit to spanking their child at least once.
I was raised in a zero-tolerance home for disrespect,and my parents often turned to physical punishment.And,no,I don't feel I was damaged by it.
Nothing is more annoying than watching ill-mannered behavior from children.
But there is data to suggest that a return to old-school spanking isn't the answer.
Two years ago,Newsweek reported that it had found data suggesting that teens whose parents u sed physical punishment were more likely to become aggressive.
Murray Straus,professor at the University of New Hampshire in America,has studied the topic of children and spanking for decades.He said that children who were physically punished have lower IQs than their peers.It may be that children with lower IQs were more likely to get spanked,but the punishment may have been counterproductive(反作用的)to their mental development,as well.
Some researchers make the argument that occasional open-handed smacks(用巴掌打)on the bottom are not only harmless but can have some benefit.
Last year,Marjorie Gunnoe,a psychologist at Calvin College,studied teens who have never been spanked.There are a greater number of children growing up without ever having been physically punished.Gunnoe's research suggests they don't turn out any better than those who were sometimes spanked.
There are some parents who simply cannot control their tempers(脾气).But I still believe that the best parents are the ones who are able to offer fair and firm discipline without ever turning to physical punishment.

29.According to the first three paragraphs,the author was probably hit by her parents whenC.
A.they were dissatisfied with her grade
B.they cannot control their temper
C.she showed no respect for the elder
D.their discipline turns out to be not strict enough
30.According to Murray Straus,children who are physically punishedB.
A.are less aggressive toward others when they get older
B.may develop lower IQs than their peers
C.benefit from occasional spanking
D.have slower physical development
31.The author seems to agree thatA.
A.good parents discipline their children in a fair and reasonable way
B.children who have been spanked tend to behave better than those who haven't
C.physical punishment should be the last resort (手段)of any parent
D.parents should determine whether a child needs to be smacked or not.

8.About ten years ago,a young and very successful businessman named Josh was traveling down a Chicago neighborhood street.He was going a bit too fast in his shiny,black,12cylinder Jaguar XKE,which was only two months old.
He was watching for kids rushing out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something.As his car passed,no child came out,but a brick sailed out and-WHUMP!-it hit the Jag's shiny black side door!Immediately Josh stopped the car,jumped out,seized the kid and pushed him up against a parked car.He shouted at the kid,"What was that all about and who are you?That's my new Jag,that brick you threw is gonna cost you a lot of money.Why did you throw it?"

5.People say teenagers are no good.They make too much noise in shopping malls; they drive recklessly up and down America's main streets; they carry chips on their shoulders as big as the Sears Tower.And at least some of the time those things are true.But we shouldn't forget that there are hard moments in the life of a teenager too.
I watched such a moment not long ago at a woman's funeral.I didn't expect the event to affect me.Through much of the ceremony,in fact,I remained unmoved.
The teenage grandson stepped forward.With his very first deep breath,every heart in that church was achingly reminded of something we had all forgotten.Softly he began:"I want to share a few values that Nana taught me.She never failed to see light in any situation.When our family dog would truly attack her,what would Nana say?'oh,what beautiful barking that dog has!'That was Nana."
"She was a strong woman who often lived in the shadow of my grandpa,who was a successful businessman in this city.But she was the one behind the scenes who provided the strength and support for my grandpa's career,"he said,with a voice now trembling,"That was Nana's way."
Through a low sob,he continued,"Whenever she did anything worth recognition,you'd have to hear about it from a different source,because she was never one to show off."
Finally,in a voice breaking free of sorrow,he looked up and said,"Nana taught me courage.She put up an incredible fight to the end,when she died peacefully,which is how she lived her life.That was Nana's way,and I hope I can carry on in the same manner."
There are no hearts as sensitive as those of teenagers,because everything is happening to them for the first time.The trouble with teenagers is that they haven't learned to be controlled.When that boy rose to speak about the woman who surely had been his truest and best friend,his honest voice dragged each of us out into the open where we could no longer hide in the calm ceremony.He exposed us to the truth about this very real woman who believed in a boy who probably tried the patience of many adults.He reminded us that his grandmother was more than another dot on the chart of life and death.
All over again we felt those powerful losses crossing our own hearts,and we knew that when you say good-bye to something happy,something young in yourself.And that something never really returns,and the pain never really goes away.
32.In the first paragraph,the writer gave some examples toD.
A.support his idea that young people are no good
B.introduce his point of view about young people
C.tell people every coin has its two sides
D.show young people often make mistakes
33.From the boy's speech,we knowA.
A.his grandmother had great influence on him
B.they had a dog which often attacked people
C.people had forgotten her until the boy appeared
D.his grandmother was so weak that she is always living in the shadow of his grandpa
34.Which of the following statements is true?D
A.The boy's speech moved no one present at the funeral except the writer
B.The boy's being good at expressing himself enabled him to draw everyone's attention
C.The boy was too grieved to accept the fact that his grandmother had passed away
D.The writer didn't expect the event would affect him
35.What words can best describe grandmother's quality?D
A.Weak,mild and modest
B.Easygoing,cautious and considerate
C.Sensitive and hard on others
D.Patient,optimistic,strong and helpful.

12.When Zhang Ning,whose pen name was Misha,started drawing manga(漫画) in junior high school,it was a time when Japanese cartoonists occupied most of the Chinese market.She was warned about the poor wage cartoonists earn and the risk of pursuing a career in an industry where China is not yet competitive.
But with the growth of domestic animation and manga industry in recent years,Zhang managed to draw her way up to become one of the country's top cartoonists.In 2011,the 29-year-old won the Golden Dragon award,one of the most influential awards in China's manga industry.
Looking back,the graduate of Zhejiang University of Technology said:"It was a dream come true."Zhang's success boomed along with the industry.In 2010,according to the National Bureau of Statistics,China's animation and manga industry was worth 47billion yuan.It has seen annual growth rates of more than 20percent in recent years.
These big numbers seem a far stretch from Zhang's in Hangzhou,Zhejiang province.But she thinks the very reason why cartoonists can enjoy a decent life is the country's decision to well develop the industry."The country is not giving us money directly,but it's creating a market in which we can succeed,"said Zhang.
Apart from government investment,Zhang is also benefiting from technology advances.The Internet has provided a wider platform for cartoonists to publish their work.The electric edition of Zhang's work ranked the 6th among free book apps on the Apple Store."I think the Internet has encouraged new cartoonists and given them more chances.Before we could only contribute to magazines and it was difficult to convince the editors to publish our work",said Zhang."But when you release your work online,you receive encouragement and support from many netizens.It increases your confidence."said Zhang.
New technology has also attracted more people to read comics."China has entered 3G era.It's very convenient for people to read on their smart phones when traveling around.It opens comics to a bigger readership,"said Zhang.Only last week,Zhang published her new manga based on the ancient classic Tangzi(汤子) which set during the warring states period.According to Zhang,the inspiration came from wall painting in Dunhuang,Gansu province.She hopes her works will encouraged more people especially the young,to explore the cultural treasures of ancient China."Chinese youths now need a spirit to help them to realize their dreams,"said Zhang."Like Kua Fu(夸父) chasing the sun---people can accomplish great things by choosing to something seemingly beyond their ability.I think that's my"Chinese dream"and I want to share it with the public through my cartoons."
57.When Zhang Ning started drawing manga,C.
A.she nearly finished her study in junior high school.
B.Chinese cartoonists could earn so much money.
C.Japanese cartoonists took up the majority of Chinese market.
D.She was encouraged by her teachers.
58.Which statement can be inferred from the passage?C
A.Before the widespread use of the Internet,cartoonists could send the works to magazines and have them published easily.
B.The Internet has been a wonderful platform only for Chinese cartoonists'works.
C.China's animation and manga industry will have a promising future.
D.New cartoonists have received support from the people from across China.

2.The life expectancy is the length of time that a person is normally likely to live.As it increases nowadays,the average person lives beyond the age of retirement.As a result,the elderly make up an ever-increasing percentage of society,which makes it more important to make effort to improve the lives of senior citizens.
First of all,one way would be to make sure that the elderly have enough money on which to live.Obviously,when a person stops working,they still require a source of income to cover their basic needs such as food,accommodation and heating.A clear solution to the problem is for the government to make sure that the state pension(养老金) is enough for these needs.
Measures should also be taken to overcome the health problems the elderly face.The government should also provide access to the best health care available,which may necessitate paying for residential homes where the elderly can have round-the-clock nursing,or,at least,providing medication free of charge to all people over a certain age.
If we try to address the problem of social isolation (社交孤立),the lives of old people could be improved.If we organize trips for the elderly to community centers,visits from social workers,their problem of loneliness can be reduced a lot which marks the lives of so many old people living alone and far from their families.
The last helpful suggestion is to change the attitude of the community towards its older members,who are all too often seen as a burden on society.We need to be taught from an early age to respect the views of old people,and appreciate their broader experience of life.This would help society as a whole,and encourage appreciation of the role that old people can still play today.
49.What does underlined word"it"in Paragraph 1refer to?C
A.time     
B.retirement     
C.life expectancy     
D.age
50.What factors affected the old people's life?C
a.the state pension
b.the basic needs
c.the attitude of the community
d.the experience of life
e.social isolation
f.medical care
A.b,c,d,e      
B.a,b,c,d    
C.a,c,e,f    
D.c,d,e,f
51.According to the last suggestion,the old peopleA.
A.should be respected by all of us
B.may be regarded as our heavy burden
C.must change their attitude to the community
D.have to gather more life experience.

9.Grammar is the system of a language.People sometimes describe grammar as the"rules"of a language; but in fact no language has rules.If we use the word"rules",we suggest that somebody created the rules first and then spoke the language,like a new game.But languages did not start like that.Languages started by people making sounds which evolved (逐渐发展成) into words,phrases and sentences.No commonly-spoken language is fixed.All languages change over time.What we call"grammar"is simply a reflection (反映) of a language at a particular time.
Do we need to study grammar to learn a language?The short answer is"no".Very many people in the world speak their own,native language without having studied its grammar.Children start to speak before they even know the word"grammar".But if you are serious about learning a foreign language,the long answer is"yes,grammar can help you to learn a language more quickly and more efficiently."It's important to think of grammar as something that can help you,like a friend.When you understand the grammar (or system) of a language,you can understand many things yourself,without having to ask a teacher or look in a book.
So think of grammar as something good,something positive,something that you can use to find your way---like a signpost(路标) or a map.
Except invented languages like Esperanto(世界语).And if Esperanto were widely spoken,its rules would soon be very different.
21.Which of the following statements is NOT true?B
A.Grammar is the system of a language.
B.Someone created the grammar first and then people learn the language according to it.
C.Language's developing and forming is a long-term process (过程).
D.There is no language staying the same all the time.
22.What is the author's attitude towards grammar learning?C
A.He is against grammar learning.
B.He is in favor of grammar learning.
C.His attitude is objective(客观的).
D.His attitude is unknown to us.
23.Which of the following is CORRECT according to the last paragraph?C
A.Esperanto is widely spoken.
B.Esperanto is different from other languages because its rules are fixed.
C.Esperanto is different from other languages because its rules came out before this language.
D.Esperanto is very easy to learn.
