As a senior three student, it won’t take long after I graduate. Now, I have much to share with my fellow student.

Thirdly, I’ve made my mind to make every effort to study, so hard work is the key to a success.

根据短文内容，从下框的A~F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。

A. The engine in your body.

B. The location, size and heartbeat of a heart.

C. What happens when the heart beats?

D. How does your heart work?

E. How do we know about the heart?

F. What can a doctor tell by feeling your pulse?

61.   _____________

    Your heart is located in your chest, a little to your left. This heart of yours, which is about the size of your two fists held together, beats about 90 times a minute. A grown person's heart beats about 60 to 80 times a minute. The heartbeat is not just the same in all persons, and it is not the same in any one person at all times.

62.   _______________

    When your heart beats, it is pumping blood to all parts of your body. If you could examine your heart closely, you would see that it is really two pumps placed side by side, and working at the same time. Each pump has two parts, the upper part called the auricle (心房), and the lower part called the ventricle (心室). The auricles receive the blood as it comes into them after it has been pumped through the body. The ventricles pump the blood out. The right one pumps the blood to the lungs and the left one pumps the blood to all other parts of the body. At the top and bottom openings of each ventricle are valves (阀门) which make the blood go in only one direction.

63.   ________________

    Your heart is sometimes called the engine or the motor in your body and sometimes called the pump. It works away, both day and night. First it pumps out some blood, rests for a few seconds, and then it pumps some more. In a normal day, the heart pumps about 2,500 gallons of blood from the auricles and ventricles.

64.   _______________

    By using a stethoscope to listen to the heart, the doctor can tell whether your heart is beating evenly and whether the valves are closing tightly. The stethoscope makes these sounds so clear that the doctor can hear them easily. The stethoscope has an earpiece that he places on your chest and tubes that he places in his ear. The earpiece carries the sound or your heart's beating along the tubes to the doctor's ears, and it makes the sound seem much louder than it really is. The doctor could listen to your heartbeat by pulling his ear against your chest.

65.   _______________

An easy experiment can help you understand what happens when the heart beats. You can do this experiment with a hollow rubber ball. Make a small hole in it, and fill the ball with water through the hole. When you squeeze the ball, you will notice how the water comes out in a spurt each time you squeeze. After each spurt the ball comes back to its round shape again. Something like this happens when your heart beats. The muscles in your heart grow smaller, or contract, and squeeze the blood out of the heart. Each time this happens, we say your heart is beating. Perhaps you have noticed that the doctor places his finger on the pulse in your wrist when you are ill. By doing this he can tell how fast your heart is beating.

Hunan Satellite TV is losing its leading position? There’s reason for saying this. In 2012, the reality talent show , the voice of China, on the Zhejiang Television became the most popular program in China.

The reaon for its popularity was really because its excellent quality? Or can we assume that without any opponent（对手）, we can’t tell a contestant（参赛者） is winning because he is really talented or because there’s no comparison?

The administrative department really contributed a lot in the popularity of the voice of China. In the past, there was no other draft shows(选秀节目) ranked as high as Super Girl and Super Boy. Even though there were some draft shows which seemed to share the popularity, it never turned out true. All the other draft shows were shodowed by the ones on Hunan TV. One example was that since draft shows of Hunan TV were broadcast on Friday night, the draft shows of other stations were shifted to Saturday or Sunday. However, Hunan TV didn’t get their permission for broadcasting shows in 2012.

And if this were not bad enough, SARFT did a great favor for it. SARFT issued a regulation, saying that all draft shows should be broadcast after 10:30 pm at night. Zhejiang TV declared long before the regulation that since was “no audition(海选)， no PK, no rise in rank, no voting, no champion”, its program was never a draft show. So, in 2012, all the opponents of Zhejiang TV had to broadcast their draft shows after 10:30 pm while the voice of China was permitted to be broadcast in prime time.

If you really think about it, there’s no esential different between a draft show and the voice of China. It also selected people from all over the country, how did they say this were different from a draft show? No PK,really? PK doesn’t mean one versus one！ A team versus a team is called PK too. And “no rise in rank?” is just a switch of concepts because at the end of every game, some left the stage and some stayed. If there was really “no champion”, how come there was only one “good voice of China” at the final round? All these were rising in rank, in disguise(隐性).

Under such cimcumstance, the voice of China even got praise. We are not saying that it is not a good show: we are saying that there’s regret about the show since it had no opponent.

58. The following factors are important in making the voice of China popular EXCEPT ______.

A. the unique quality of the voice of China

B. the policy support from SARFT and the administrative department

C. the favorable broadcasting time.

D. the shortage of good opponents

59. The passage mainly tells us ______

A. the voice of China is not a real draft show

B. the advantages of the voice of China

C. the draft shows of Hunan Satellite TV still cause our attention

D. the reasons for Hunan Satellite TV is losing its leading position

60. What’s the author’s attitude towards the voice of China?

A. supportive   B. hopeful    C. doubtful    D. optimistic

It’s good to make mistakes, and here is why.

First of all, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. It’s always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you expand? The simple answer is “You can’t”. Look around you. With very few exceptions (例外), either everything you see in your physical world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something new.
    Another good thing about mistakes is this: When you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work.
    Finally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success. Why?
    Because when all is said and done, you will have tried some number of things before you succeeded. Every time you make a mistake you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer.
    But this all doesn’t mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences of a mistake. Quite the contrary, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesn’t work out the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again.
    We all have limited resources in the form of time and money so don’t blow them all on one approach to a problem. Realize that it probably won’t be perfect the first time and allocate (分配) these resources appropriately so you can learn, make corrections, and try it again. Only by accepting and using your mistakes in this way can you make significant advances in your business and your career.
   

There is an old saying that goes, “If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough.”
    So go forth and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And prosper(成功).
50. From the second paragraph, we can conclude that _______.
   A. mistakes are better than not trying
   B. we are afraid of trying new things
   C. it’s common for people to make mistakes
   D. mistakes are unnecessary for developmen
51. The underlined word “eliminate” means _______.
   A. avoid          B. solve        C. accept            D. dismiss
52. According to the article, one thing you should pay attention to about making mistakes is          _______.
   A. avoiding making the same mistakes   B. accepting the punishment willingly
   C. taking consequences into account     D. trying things out one by one
53. The article is mainly about _______.
   A. how to deal with mistakes           B. what benefits mistakes bring
   C. how to achieve success             D. how to make use of your mistakes
54. What would the writer probably suggest we say to ourselves when we make a mistake?
   A. Never mind, I can always try again.     B. I’d better stay out of trouble.
   C. Great! Now I can learn something.      D. Look at this mess. Anyone would be upset.
