12、-40的相应位置上。Good Luck Always Comes With Hard WorkIt is hard work rather than luck that brings people success. Those who _31_ (consider) to be successful must have been working hard _32_ (achieve) their goal and their success can also benefit others.Some people argue that one can not succeed _33_ he wo

13、rks very hard. There are many examples to show that success comes from hard work. One example is _34_ Madam Curie had been working all day and all night _35_ she made the great discovery of radium.Other people think that luck and opportunity are _36_ (important) than hard work. They argue that even

14、if one works hard, he can not succeed _37_ luck and opportunity. For instance, _38_ film star, Zhang Ziyi, could never be famous if she was not given a chance to play a role in the film.I think that _39_ hard work and good luck are important. If one wants to be successful, he has to work hard on one

15、 hand and he has to seize the opportunity and luck on the other. These two factors are essential for ones _40_(succeed). II 阅读 (共两节，满分50分)第一节 阅读理解 (共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并填写在答题卡上。AWhat makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the

16、brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In som

17、e ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are

18、 then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents

19、are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smar

20、t child.”41. The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _ while “dull” in the second paragraph means _.A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understandingB. pretty and handsome; ordinary-lookingC. great and important; commonD. hopeful and helpful; careless42.

21、 According to the context we can guess that a genius is _ while an idiot is _.A. a normal person; a funny personB. a strong person; a weak personC. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded personD. a famous person; an ordinary person43. A person _ is more likely to become a genius.A. wh

22、ose parents are cleverB. often thinking about difficult problemsC. often helped by his parents and teachersD. born with a good brain and putting it into active use44. It is better for parents _.A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their child

23、ren alone with nothing to doD. to give their children as much help as possible45. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?A. Parents play an important part in their childrens growth.B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.C. Intelligence is obviously the result of

24、 where and how you live.D. What makes a person bright or stupid is still under discussion.BHow I Turned to Be OptimisticI began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunts house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then

25、. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried ve

26、ry little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.The four years that

27、 followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even m

28、ore complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times”My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interv

29、iews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.From my experiences I have learned one important rule：almost all common troubles eventually go away！Something good is certain to happen in the end

30、when you do not give up, and just wait a little！I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.46How did the author get to know America?AFrom her relatives.BFrom her mother.CFrom books and pictures.DFrom radio programs.47Upon leaving for America the author felt

31、_.Aconfused BexcitedCworried Damazed48For the first two years in New York, the author _.Aoften lost her wayBdid not think about her futureCstudied in three different schoolsDgot on well with her stepfather49What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4?AShe worked as a translator.BShe attended

32、 a lot of job interviews.CShe paid telephone bills for her family.D.She helped her family with her English.50The author believes that _.Aher future will be free from troublesBit is difficult to learn to become patientCthere are more good things than bad thingsDgood things will happen if one keeps tr

33、yingCThe English, as a race, are very different in many ways from all other nationalities, including their closest neighbors, the French and the Belgians. It is claimed that living on an island separated from the rest of the Europe has much to do with it. Whatever the reasons are, it may be fairly s

34、tated that the Englishman has developed many attitudes and habits which distinguish him from other nationalities.Broadly speaking, an Englishman is a quiet, shy, reserved person who is fully relaxed only among people he knows well. In the presence of strangers or foreigners he often seems restrained

35、, even embarrassed. You have only to witness a city train any morning or evening to see the truth of this. Serious looking men and women sit reading their newspapers of having a light sleep in a corner, no one speaks. In fact, to do so would seem most unusual. An Englishman, pretending to be giving

36、advice to overseas visitors, once suggested, “On entering a railway carriage, shake hands with all the passengers.” Needless to say, he was not being serious. There is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior which, if broken, makes the person immediately suspected.In many parts of the w

37、orld it is quite normal to show openly extremes of enthusiasm, emotion, excitement, etc., often accompanied by appropriate gestures. The Englishman is somewhat different. Of course, an Englishman feels no less deeply than any one of a different nationality, but he tends to display his feelings far l

38、ess. This is reflected in his use of language. Imagine a man commenting on the great beauty of a young girl. Whereas a more emotional man might describe her as “an excellent jewel”, “extremely beautiful”, and “precious”, the Englishman will flatly state “Oh, shes all right.” An Englishman who has se

39、en a highly successful and enjoyable film recommends it to a friend by commenting, “Its not bad you know.” or on seeing very unusual scenery he might convey his pleasure by saying. “Nice, yes, very nice.” The overseas visitor must not be disappointed by this apparent lack of interest and involvement

40、. Instead, he must realize that “all right”, “not bad”, and “nice”, very often have the sense of “first-class”, “excellent”, and “beautiful”. This use of language of a unique style, particularly common in England is known as restrained statement. 51. From the passage people can infer that the Englis

41、h are different from other nationalities mainly in .A. attitudes B. characters C. habits D. all the above52. If one doesnt want to be suspected in pubic, he had better .A. talk with others B. shake hands with all the people he meetsC. follow the English code of behavior D. keep quiet53. The underlin

42、ed word “restrained” in paragraph 2 most probably means .A. friendly and kind B. polite and graceful C. afraid and frightened D. calm and controlled54. According to the passage, the Englishman .A. has less feelings than other nationalities B. has emotions as deep as any other nationalitiesC. is liab

43、le to express emotion by means of languageD. likes to have a joke with foreign visitors55. An Englishmans saying “all right” usually expresses the meaning of “ ”.A. not bad B. quite right C. not good D. very goodDWhat will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question, you

44、 have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Todays leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself, wi

45、ll become distant memories.In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells are the basic units o

46、f all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond l20 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, med

47、icine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs. The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to t

48、ake the place of old ones.It is exciting to imaging that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future. 56. According to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by

49、.A. diseases and agingB. accidents and warC. accidents and agingD. heart disease and war57.
