Several times, it 36 several obstacles in its path. And after a momentary pause i

20、t would make the necessary detour（绕道）. 37 one point, the ant had to cross a crack about 10mm wide. After some 38 thoughts, the ant laid the feather over the crack, walked 39 it and picked the feather up on the other side, then continued on its way. I was 40 by the cleverness of this ant. It was only

21、 a small insect, lacking in 41 yet equipped with a brain to reason, explore, discover and overcome. 42 this ant, like the other two-legged creatures 43 on the earth, also shares human failings. After some time the ant 44 reached its destination - a flower bed and a small hole that was the entrance t

22、o its 45 home. It was there that the ant met its 46 . How could that large feather possibly 47 such a small hole? Of course, it couldnt. So the ant, after all this 48 and using great brightness, overcoming problems all along the way, just gave up the 49 and went home. The ant had not thought the pro

23、blem through 50 it began its journey and in the end the feather was 51 more than a burden. Isnt our 52 like that?We worry about our families; we worry about the 53 of money; and we worry about all kinds of things. These are all burdens - the things we pick up along lifes path, and drag them around t

28、ad predictor of success. Instead, its purposeful practice. Top performers spend more hours practising their craft. If you wanted to picture how a typical genius might develop, youd take a girl who possessed a slightly above average language ability. It wouldnt have to be a big talent, just enough so

29、 that she might gain some sense of distinction. Then you would want her to meet, say, a novelist, who coincidentally shared some similar qualities. Maybe the writer was from the same town, had the same family background, or shared the same birthday. This contact would give the girl a vision of her f

30、uture self. It would give her some idea of a fascinating circle who might someday join. It would also help if one of her parents died when she was 12, giving her a strong sense of insecurity and fuelling a desperate need for success. Armed with this ambition, she would read novels and life stories o

31、f writers without end. This would give her a primary knowledge of her field. She would be able to see new writing in deeper ways and quickly understand its inner workings. Then she would practise writing. Her practice would be slow, painstaking and error-focused. By practising in this way, she delay

32、s the automating process. Her mind wants to turn conscious, newly learned skills into unconscious, automatically performed skills. By practising slowly, by breaking skills down into tiny parts and repeating, she forces the brain to internalize a better pattern of performance. Then she would find an

33、adviser who would provide a constant stream of feedback, viewing her performance form the outside, correcting the smallest errors, pushing her to take on tougher challenges. By now she is redoing problemshow do I get characters into a roomdozens and dozens of times. She is establishing habits of tho

34、ught she can call upon in order to understand or solve future problems. The primary quality our young writer possesses is not some mysterious genius. Its the ability to develop a purposeful, laborious and boring practice routine; the latest research takes some of the magic out of great achievement.

35、But it underlines a fact that is often neglected. Public discussion is affected by genetics and what were “hard-wired” to do. And its true that genes play a role in our capabilities. But the brain is also very plastic. We construct ourselves through behavior. 56. The passage mainly deals with . A. t

36、he function of I.Q. in cultivating a writer B. the relationship between genius and success C. the decisive factor in making a genius D. the way of gaining some sense of distinction 57. By reading novels and writers stories, the girl could . A. come to understand the inner structure of writing B. joi

37、n a fascinating circle of writers someday C. share with a novelist her likes and dislikes D. learn from the living examples to establish a sense of security 58. In the girls long painstaking training process, _. A. her adviser forms a primary challenging force to her success. B. her writing turns in

38、to an automatic pattern of performance C. she acquires the magic of some great achievement D. she comes to realize she is “hard-wired” to write 59. What can be concluded from the passage?A. A fuelling ambition plays a leading role in ones success B. A responsible adviser is more important than the k

39、nowledge of writing. C. As to the growth of a genius, I.Q. doesnt matter, but just his/her effort. D. What really matters is what you do rather than who you are. BHave you ever picked a job based on the fact that you were good at it but later found it made you feel very uncomfortable over time? When

40、 you select your career, theres a whole lot more to it than assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position. If you ignore your personality, it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the jobs pay. There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider

41、to help you find a good job. Here are a few of those main areas; 1) Do you prefer working alone or with other people? There are isolating（使孤立）jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy. Most people are not extremes in either direction b

42、ut do have a tendency that they prefer. There are also positions that are sometimes a combination of the two, which may be best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation.2) How do you handle change?Most jobs these days have some elements of change to them, but some are more tha

43、n others. If you need stability in your life, you may need a job where the changes dont happen so often. Other people would be bored of the same daily routine.3) Do you enjoy working with computers？ I do see this as a kind of personality characteristic. There are people who are happy to spend more t

44、han 40 hours a week on a computer, while there are others who need a lot of human interaction throughout the day. Again, these are extremes and youll likely find a lot of positions somewhere in the middle as well.4) What type of work environment do you enjoy？ This can range from being in a large bui

45、lding with a lot of people you wont know immediately to a smaller setting where youll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly.5) How do you like to get paid? Some people are motivated by the pay they get, while others feel too stressed to be like that. The variety of payment designs i

46、n the sales industry is a typical example for this. Anyway, these are a great starting point for you. Ive seen it over and over again with people that they make more money over time when they do something they love. It may take you a little longer, but making a move to do what you have a passion for

47、 can change the course of your life for the better.60. What is the missing word about a job search in the following chart?A. Design. B. Changes. C. Cooperation. D. Hobbies.61. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph one mean? A. Before you select your job, you should assess your skills and ma

48、tch them with your position B. There are more important things than assessing skills and match them with the position when you select job. C. Nothing is important than assessing skills and match them with the position when you select job. D You should ignore your skills when you select job.62. What

49、is the best title for this passage?A. Lifestyles and Job Pay B. Jobs and EnvironmentC. Job Skills and Abilities D. Personalities and JobsCDisappointed with delays in Sacramento (the capital of California), Bay Area officials said Thursday they planned to take matters into their own hands to regulate

50、 the regions growing piles of electronic waste.A San Jose council woman and a San Francisco supervisor said they would propose new local plans aimed at controlling electronic waste if the California law-making body fails to act on two bills delayed in the Assembly. They are among a growing number of

51、 California cities and countries that have expressed the same intentionEnvironmentalists and local governments are increasingly concerned about the danger caused by old electronic devices and the cost of safely recycling those products. An estimated 6 million televisions and computers are stocked in

52、 California homes, and an additional 6,000 to 7,000 computers become outdated every day. The machines contain high levels of lead (铅) and other dangerous substances, and are already banned from California landfills.A bill by Senator (参议员) Byron Sher would require consumers to pay a recycling fee of

53、up to $30 on every new machine containing a cathode ray tube. Used in almost all video monitors and televisions, those devices contain four to eight pounds of lead each. The fees would go toward setting up recycling programs, providing grants to non-profit agencies that reuse the tubes and rewarding

54、 manufacturers that encourage recycling.A separate bill by Los Angeles-area Senator Gloria Romero would require high-tech manufacturers to develop programs to recycle so-called e-waste. If passed, the measures would put California at the forefront of national efforts to manage the refuse of the elec

55、tronic age.But high-tech groups, including the Silicon Valley Manufacturing Group and the American Electronics Association, oppose the measures, arguing that fees of up to $30 will drive consumers to online, out-of-state shops.“What really needs to occur is consumer education. Most consumers are una

56、ware theyre not supposed to throw computers in the dust bin,” said Roxanne Gould, vice president of government relations for the electronics association.Computer recycling should be a local effort and part of residential waste collection programs, she added. Recycling electronic waste is a dangerous

57、 and specialized matter, and environmentalists maintain the state must support recycling efforts and ensure that the job isnt contracted to junk dealers who send the poisonous parts overseas.“The graveyard of the high-tech revolution is ending up in rural China,” said Ted Smith, director of the Sili

58、con Valley Toxics Coalition. His group is pushing for some refinement to Shers bill that would prevent the export of e-waste.63. How would Bay Area officials deal with the problem of e-waste? _.A. To get enough support to pass the delayed bills.B. To persuade the lawmakers of the California Assembly

59、.C. To make relevant local regulations by themselves.D. To put pressure on manufacturers of electronic devices.64. What do the two bills delayed in the California Assembly both concern? _.A. The reprocessing of the huge amounts of electronic waste in the state.B. The regulations on dumping dangerous

60、 substances into landfills.C. The funding of local initiatives to reuse waste electronic devices.D. The sales of the second-hand electronic devices to foreign countries.65. High-tech groups believe that if an extra fee is charged on every TV or computer purchased in California, consumers will _.A. h

61、esitate to upgrade their computers B. abandon online shoppingC. strongly protest against such a charge D. buy them from other states66. We learn from the passage that much of Californias electronic waste has been _.A. dumped into local landfills B. exported to foreign countriesC. collected by non-pr

62、ofit agencies D. recycled by computer manufacturers DA new argument has been put forward as to whether penguins are disturbed by the presence of tourists in Antarctica. Previous research by scientists from Keil University in Germany monitored Adelie penguins and noted that the birds heart rates incr

63、eased dramatically at the sight of a human as far as 30 meters away. But new research using an artificial egg, which is equipped to measure heart rates, disputes this. Scientists from the Scott Polar Research Institute at Cambridge say that a slow moving human who does not approach the nest too clos

64、ely, is not viewed as a threat by penguins. The earlier findings have been used to partly explain the 20 per cent drop in populations of certain types of penguins near tourist sites. However, tour operators have continued to insist that their activities do not adversely affect wildlife in Antarctica

65、, saying they encourage non-disruptive behavior in tourists, and that the decline in penguin numbers is caused by other factors.Amanda Nimon of the Scott Polar Research Institute spent three southern hemisphere summers at Cuverville Island in Antarctica studying penguin behavior towards humans. “A n

66、esting penguin will react very differently to a person rapidly and closely approaching the nest,” says Nimon. “First they exhibit large and prolonged(延长) heart rate changes and then they often flee the nest leaving it open for predators (掠夺者) to fly in and remove eggs or chicks.” The artificial egg,

67、 specially for the project, monitored both the parent who had been disturbed when the egg was placed in the nest and the other parent as they both took it in turns to guard the nest.However, Boris Culik, who monitored the Adelie penguins, believes that Nimons findings do not invalidate his own resea

68、rch. He points out that species behave differently and Nimons work was with Gentoo penguins. Nimon and her colleagues believe that Culiks research was methodologically flawed（使无效） because the monitoring of penguins responses needed capturing and restraining（控制） the birds and fitting them with heart-

69、rate transmitters. Therefore, argues Nimon, it would not be surprising if they became stressed on seeing a human subsequently. 67. According to the passage, what overall message is presented?A. No firm conclusions are drawn.B. Neither Culiks nor Nimons findings are of much value.C. Penguin reduction

70、 is closed related to tourist behavior.D. Tourists are not responsible for the fall in penguin numbers.68. Which ONE argument of the following is stated in the passage?A. Penguins are harder to research when they have young.B. Tour operators should encourage tourists to avoid Antarctica.C. Not all p

71、enguins behave in the same way.D. Penguins need better protection from tourists.69. What do you notice about the views presented in the passage?A. They are groundless. B. They are factual.C. They are descriptive. D. They are conflicting.70. What does the underlined word (final line) probably mean?A.

72、 later on B. calmly C. separately D. in the same place非选择题（共35分）第三部分 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）Throw the bottles and boxes of drugs out of your house. A new theory suggests that medicine could be bad for your health, which should at least come as good news to people who cannot afford to buy expensive

73、medicine. This new theory argues that healing is at our fingertips: we can be healthy by doing Yoga on a regular basis.Supporters of medical treatment argue that medicine should be trusted since it is effective and scientifically proven. They say that there is no need for spiritual methods such as Y

74、oga. These waste our time, something which is quite precious in our material world. There is medicine that can kill our pain, xrays that show us our bones or MRI that scans our brain for tumors (肿瘤)We must admit that these methods are very effective in the examples that they provide. However, there

75、are some “everyday complaints” such as back pains, headaches, insomnia, which are treated currently with medicine. When you have a headache, you take an Aspirin; when you cannot sleep, you take Xanax without thinking of the side effects of these. When you use these pills for a long period, you becom

76、e addicted to them; you cannot sleep without them. We pay huge amounts of money and become addicted instead of getting better. How about a safer and more economical way of healing? When doing Yoga, you do not need anything except your energy so it is very economical. Its popularity has spread partic

77、ularly throughout America and Western Europe. In quantum (量子) physics, energy is recognized as the fundamental substance (物质) which the universe consists of. Yoga depends on the energy within our bodies. It is a simple and effective way of restoring the energy flow. There are no side effects and it

78、is scientifically explained. Opponents of alternative healing methods also claim that serious illnesses such as HIV/AIDS and cancer cannot be treated without drugs. They think so because these patients spend the rest of their lives in the hospital taking medicine. How can Yoga make these people heal

79、thy again? It is very unfortunate that these patients have to live in the hospital losing their hair because of chemotherapy (化疗), losing weight because of the side effects of the medicine they take. Actually, it is common knowledge that except for when the cancer is recognized at an early stage, dr

80、ugs also cannot treat AIDS or cancer. Most of the medicines these patients use are to ease their pain and their sufferings. Instead of drugs which are expensive and have many side effects, you can use your energy to overcome the hardships of life, find an emotional balance, leave the stress of every

81、day life and let go of the everyday worries. We should definitely start learning Yoga and avoid illnesses before it is too late.

But nowadays people tend to be very cautious of helping strangers. Recently our class had a dis

89、cussion about whether we should help strangers. Opinions are divided on this topic.Some think we should try to help others whether they are strangers or not. Helping others is a virtue, and it will make our society more harmonious. Besides, to some extent, helping others is helping oneself. We may c

90、ome across some trouble and need others help some day. If everyone turns a blind eye to our trouble and turns a deaf ear to our appeal for aid just because we are strangers to them, its hard to imagine what our world will be like.However, others are afraid that helping others can sometimes bring us

91、trouble or even put us in danger. Sometimes we are just misunderstood and thus have to pay the cost of kindness.In my opinion, we should try our best to help others when they are in need of help, but we should also protect ourselves to avoid getting into trouble. Only if everyone tries a little kind
