It was no normal bear—it was an Asian black bear, a very ___11___ kind. Between 1950 and 2023, Asian black bears caused 765 human deaths, according to a study in the journal PLOs Biology. This makes it one of the most dangerous large animals. However, bears, ___12___ the most dangerous black bears, do not often hurt people, US scientist Lynn Rogers told the North American Bear Center. “The ___13___ why black bears hurt people is that people are too close,” he said. “Almost all recorded bear attacks (袭击) in the wild have resulted from humans surprising the bear. For example, hunters (猎人) typically aren’t making any noise, but they are at the highest risk of being attacked ___14___ they suddenly appear in front of bears.” According to China Science Communication (CSC), an attack ___15___ also happen when people scare baby bears from a place nearby. When black bears are taking care of ___16___ babies, mother bears can be very dangerous. Also, people may find that bears and humans are more likely to meet in recent years. More people near bears means less space for these animals to live in. Bears go to look ___17___ food near villages, and this leads to more “meetings” with humans which may bring harm or even cause death, said CSC. So, what should you do when there’s a bear right in front of you? Play dead? It could work, the bear may not ___18___ you as a danger. There are better ways. If you see a bear before it notices you, don’t get closer or keep watching it. Just walk away ___19___ in the other direction. If a bear sees you first, don’t run—it might run after you. Instead, move back slowly in the opposite direction and wait for the bear to ___20___. 11. A. shy B. dangerous C. direct D. patient 12. A. beside B. besides C. including D. include 13. A. reason B. relative C. request D. review 14. A. so B. until C. although D. because 15. A. must B. had better C. can D. have to 16. A. his B. our C. their D. its 17. A. for B. at C. after D. on 18 A. repeat B. treat C. connect D. suggest 19. A. widely B. exactly C. privately D. silently 20.

The night before, you spend a lot of time thinking about the possible mistakes you might make and whether you’re prepared enough. Or maybe everyone will laugh at you if you lose. Well, you might be overthinking. Overthinking means thinking about the same thing again and again, leading you to see things in the worst possible way. This is because our brains are always looking for dangers so that they can make plans to deal with those dangers and keep us safe. Those dangers in mind may come from past experiences or the “what ifs” we imagine could happen in the future. Some people believe that overthinking may be helpful because it helps us look at a problem from every possible direction and get ready for what might happen. However, research suggests that overthinking can make us stressed, worried and unhappy. What’s more, overthinking might create problems with how you get along with others. As you think the worst, make incorrect guesses, or worry about every little thing others do and say, you might misunderstand what they mean. So, instead of sitting and thinking about a problem again and again, you can pay attention to something else instead of the problem itself. Your brain might find better ways to solve the problem while you’re doing something fun, like gardening, watching a comedy or even sleeping. Also, when you find yourself overthinking, challenge these thoughts. Ask yourself if they will be sure to happen and think about other possibilities. It can be hard at first, but the following ways can help you know whether you are overthinking. 24. Overthinking can make us have the following feelings EXCEPT (除了) being ________. A. stressed B. worried C. unhappy D. excited 25. If you are a person who is always overthinking, what might you think if you lose a basketball game? A. My teachers will not like me and the classmates will laugh at me. B. I believe I will do better next time if I practice harder. C. Although I lost the game, I will treat myself to something delicious. D. I will talk with my coach (教练) to find out why I lost the game. 26. How does the writer support his idea in Paragraph 5? A. By listing numbers. B. By giving examples. C. By raising questions. D. By showing pictures. 27. If there is another paragraph after the passage, it may be about ________. A. what problems overthinking may cause B. what good things overthinking may bring C. how you can know you are overthinking D. why people are always overthinking C Doing exercise is very important for a happy and healthy life. So people all over the world have invented many kinds of exercise so far. Baduanjin, a kind of Chinese traditional sport, is just one of them. The traditional Chinese exercise was invented over eight hundred years ago. At first, it was used as one kind of basic exercise for Shaolin Wushu. Compared with other sports, such as ball games and swimming, Baduanjin is slow and gentle, and usually accompanied (伴随) by soft and relaxing music, so it has been considered as a sport for the elderly. But lately, as an official video of Baduanjin got popular on the Internet, it has also become a new favorite for young people. As the name shows, Baduanjin is made up of eight groups of movements in total. At the same time, people may feel like they are wearing a dress made of soft silk after doing the exercise, so it’s also called “Eight Pieces of Silk”. Many young people come to realize the beauty of the sport. Baduanjin is easy to learn and requires no tools and little space. So it’s perfect for office workers, as they often feel a pain in their neck and shoulders, which is caused by long hours of sitting. For example, the first movement “Two hands supporting the sky” is helpful to the headache, backache and so on. The fifth movement “Shaking the head and tail” helps you to lower the stress and relax your back and neck. “I’ve been doing Baduanjin for a month, which makes me sleep better. I think Baduanjin is really helpful.” a young netizen (网民) wrote below the video. Besides him, many people said Baduanjin could help them get relaxed. Sun Yuxuan, a college student, has also noticed the rising popularity of Baduanjin. The 21-year-old girl has been teaching other students to practice it for over three years. They started with 12 members in 2021 and the group has 85 members now. “Every member in the group is very active. I didn’t expect that it could attract so many young people. I guess that’s because they know it is really good for our health,” she said. 28. Which of the following is NOT the good points of Baduanjin? A. It is easy to learn. B. It requires no tools and little space. C. It is good for our health. D. It is a quick and silent sport. 29. If you often have a headache, which of the following movement of Baduanjin is better for you to practice? A. B. C. D. 30. The underlined word “it” (in Para. 6) refers to_________. A. the group B. every member C. the sport D. three years 31. The writer writes the article to_________. A. introduce many kinds of exercise B. ask us to teach others to practice Baduanjin C. spread the popularity of Baduanjin D. ask us not to practice Baduanjin D My mother comes from a traditional family, and she looks just like many grandmothers. She worked as a government officer her whole life. In short, she didn’t do crazy things. But that all changed a few years ago. I still remember the year when she turned 80. She surprised my brother and me with what she described as “independence”. One day she told us that she had booked a seven-night trip to Italy. Alone. Because she had never been there before, and that was one of her dreams. Of course, that was ridiculous. There was no way my brother and I could allow that. A weak, little old lady walking around the strange streets of Italy on her own, not speaking a word of Italian, with no knowledge of the laws and customs of the land—it was out of the question! She paid no attention to us. She told us she had to go instead of staying at home, watching TV all day long. She wanted to change a new environment and meet new people. She needed to experience something new. We had to send her to the airport, and of course in the next several days, my brother and I waited nervously, hoping that God could return our mother to us safely. Finally, the day came when she walked out of the airport, with her eyes shining. We felt she seemed as if she were in her thirties again. She told us it had been a wonderful success. As it turned out, she had hardly spent any time alone after asking a taxi driver to show her around the country for some days. He took her to all kinds of places—the markets, churches and restaurants. He introduced her to a blanket (毛毯) seller. “A lovely man,” and she bought some blankets. The seller took her address and promised to mail the blankets home. The seller and my mother clearly built a friendship and she told him to drop by if he were ever in Canada. My mother laughed happily when she told this story. However, we thought she was cheated. To our great surprise, her blankets did arrive some weeks later, along with a lovely note from the seller Leonardo. To our even greater surprise, the following year Leonardo himself arrived, who was a handsome young man. My mother was busy showing him around those days and they did build a stronger friendship. The mouths of my brother and I fell open in surprise. Her character of independence shows she totally understands that life is to be lived. It reminded me of the line from the movie The Shawshank Redemption (肖申克的救赎): “Get busy living or get busy dying.” 32. Why did the writer’s mother go to Italy? A. To prepare herself to enter the world of the old. B. To tell the writer and her brother she was crazy. C. To make the writer and her brother surprised. D. To make her life meaningful and realize her dream. 33. In which of the following sentences can we fill the underlined word “ridiculous”? A. It is really __________ to camp outside, with shining stars in the sky. B. The fat old man looked _________ in a pink skirt and a green T-shirt. C. You must be _________ after getting such good grades. D. I am a little _________ because I have to give a book report next Monday. 34. Which of the following word best describes the mother’s trip to Italy? A. Traditional. B. Boring. C. Colorful. D. Inexpensive. 35. What might be the correct order of what happened in the story? a. My brother and I sent her to the airport and waited nervously. b. The blankets and a lovely note arrived some weeks later. c. My mother told us she had booked a seven-night trip to Italy. d. She walked out of the airport, with her eyes shining. e. The blanket seller came to visit my mother. A. c-a-d-b-e B. a-d-b-e-c C. c-d-a-e-b D. a-c-e-b-d E ①We all believe the famous saying “Practice makes perfect”, but have you even thought whether practice really makes perfect? ②One popular theory (理论) is that if a person practises for at least 10,000 hours, he will reach “perfection”—or, in other words, become an expert in his field. This theory was made famous by Malcolm Gladwell in his book, Outliers: The Story of Success, which has been taken to mean that enough practice will make anyone an expert. In the book, Gladwell says that “ten thousand hours is the magic number of greatness”. He gives the examples of the music group The Beatles and Microsoft co-creator Bill Gates. Although they all seemed to have lots of natural talent, they also clearly put in over 10,000 hours of practice before they became successful. ③ ▲ For example, his work was largely based on research done by Anders Ericsson, who argued that Gladwell misunderstood his research in some ways. Firstly, Ericsson said that 10,000 hours was an average (平均的) number. Some people, for example, needed far fewer than 10,000 hours, and others needed many more. More importantly, Ericsson said that the quality (质量) of practice was also of great importance. ④So what are the other reasons that help people become experts? ⑤Many people say that natural talent has a large influence on becoming an expert, which can be often found in sports. For example, many baseball players in America can see the ball much sooner than others do. So no matter how much a “normal” person practises, it is very hard for them to be as good as someone who has natural talent or physical advantages and who also practices. ⑥And how about other reasons that help create an expert? Many say IQ, personality, attitude (态度) and starting age are decisive reasons, too. ⑦In conclusion, practice may not make perfect, but practice of high quality may lead to important improvement. Here are some suggestions on how to practise effectively (高效的): be motivated (if somebody is motivated, he or she wants to do something, especially something that needs hard work), make exact and practical goals, work outside your comfort zone (区域), continue to try, ask for others’ opinions, and of course, get lots of rest! For those who want to become an expert in something, remember that being motivated is the key-enjoy what you do and follow what you love. 36. Which sentence can be put in ▲ ? A. Plenty of people agreed with Gladwell and what he said in the book. B. However, Gladwell’s theory has been said by some people to be too simple. C. A great number of people had done some research after Gladwell. D. However, Gladwell’s idea was said to be totally wrong by many. 37. What can we infer from the passage? A. If you practise hard enough you are sure to be an expert. B. Natural talent has a large influence on becoming an expert. C. Only practising a lot was not enough to be an expert. D. Ten thousand hours will create greatness for sure. 38 What can be the best title for the text? A. A New Scientific Discovery B. Does Practice Really Make Perfect? C. Advantages and Disadvantages of Practice D. The More You Practise, The More Success You Will Get 39. Finish the structure according to the passage. Passage E Researches Gladwell’s theory: If a person practises for at least ① hours, he will become an expert in his field. Anders Ericsson’s research: The ② of practice was also of great importance. ③ Enough practice; practice of high quality; natural talent; IQ; personality; attitude; starting age; social reasons. . . ④ Be motivated; make exact and practical goals; work outside your comfort zone; continue to try; ask for others’ opinions; get lots of rest… A. ①1,000 hours; ②time; ③Suggestions; ④Reasons B. ①1,000 hours; ②quality; ③Reasons; ④Suggestions C. ①10,000 hours; ②quality; ③Suggestions; ④Reasons D. ①10,000 hours; ②quality; ③Reasons; ④Suggestions V. 口语运用。（每小题1分, 共5分） 阅读下面对话，从7个选项中选择5个恰当句子完成此对话。 A: Hey, Jack!

Yusuf Dikec, a Turkish shooter, is a social media storm after his funny performance at the Paris Olympic 2024. The 51-year-old, who wore a white T-shirt and had his hand in his pocket, has been among the most searched persons on Internet since then. His casual (随意的) style stood him apart from his competitors in the 10-meter air pistol mixed team event (10米气手枪混合决赛). The most-shared photo shows Dikec shooting in a T-shirt with one hand in his pocket and a common pair of glasses, showing no feeling on his face. He’s been compared to a hitman (杀手). Dikec is no stranger to shooting: Paris 2024 is his fifth Olympics, after 2008, 2012, 2016 and 2020 before. He also hold several titles from the World and European Championships for different events. “I shoot with both eyes, but most shooters do it with one. So I did not need special equipment (装备). Shooting with two eyes—I believe that it’s better. I have done a lot of research on it, so I didn’t need the equipment. I shot with my hand in my pocket because I just felt more comfortable while shooting. In this way my body would not swing. Although I looked calm on the outside, there was a storm inside.” Dikec told the media, “I’m a natural shooter.” “Success doesn’t come with your hands in your pockets.” is another sentence he said to the media. In fact, his calm shot is the result of 24 years of hard work. He trains for 4-5 hours six days a week. As for the question when he had received the information that he would take part in the Olympics, he said it was just two hours before the competition. He happened to be in Paris on business and was about to have lunch with his friend, after which he would have another meeting in the afternoon. But his friend told him that the competition place was near the restaurant and he could shoot first. After that they could have lunch together. In the end, he got the silver medal. When they had lunch, his friend met him and said, “________ ” 45. Did Yusuf Dikec win a gold medal? ______________________________ 46.

This makes it one of the most dangerous large animals. However, bears, ___12___ the most dangerous black bears, do not often hurt people, US scientist Lynn Rogers told the North American Bear Center. “The ___13___ why black bears hurt people is that people are too close,” he said. “Almost all recorded bear attacks (袭击) in the wild have resulted from humans surprising the bear.

Instead, move back slowly in the opposite direction and wait for the bear to ...”可知，如果熊先看到你，不要跑——它可能会追上你，要慢慢地向相反方向移动。可以推断是要等待熊自己走开。故选C。 IV. 阅读理解。（41~43题每小题1分, 44-59题每小题2分, 共35分） 阅读下列材料, 从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案, 并把答题卡上对应该题目的答案标号涂黑。 A Fold a Paper Plane Steps 1.

The night before, you spend a lot of time thinking about the possible mistakes you might make and whether you’re prepared enough. Or maybe everyone will laugh at you if you lose. Well, you might be overthinking. Overthinking means thinking about the same thing again and again, leading you to see things in the worst possible way. This is because our brains are always looking for dangers so that they can make plans to deal with those dangers and keep us safe. Those dangers in mind may come from past experiences or the “what ifs” we imagine could happen in the future. Some people believe that overthinking may be helpful because it helps us look at a problem from every possible direction and get ready for what might happen. However, research suggests that overthinking can make us stressed, worried and unhappy. What’s more, overthinking might create problems with how you get along with others. As you think the worst, make incorrect guesses, or worry about every little thing others do and say, you might misunderstand what they mean. So, instead of sitting and thinking about a problem again and again, you can pay attention to something else instead of the problem itself. Your brain might find better ways to solve the problem while you’re doing something fun, like gardening, watching a comedy or even sleeping. Also, when you find yourself overthinking, challenge these thoughts. Ask yourself if they will be sure to happen and think about other possibilities. It can be hard at first, but the following ways can help you know whether you are overthinking. 24. Overthinking can make us have the following feelings EXCEPT (除了) being ________. A. stressed B. worried C. unhappy D. excited 25. If you are a person who is always overthinking, what might you think if you lose a basketball game? A. My teachers will not like me and the classmates will laugh at me. B. I believe I will do better next time if I practice harder. C. Although I lost the game, I will treat myself to something delicious. D. I will talk with my coach (教练) to find out why I lost the game. 26. How does the writer support his idea in Paragraph 5? A. By listing numbers. B. By giving examples. C. By raising questions. D. By showing pictures. 27. If there is another paragraph after the passage, it may be about ________. A. what problems overthinking may cause B. what good things overthinking may bring C. how you can know you are overthinking D. why people are always overthinking 【答案】24. D 25. A 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了过度思考这种现象以及应对措施。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Overthinking means thinking about the same thing again and again, leading you to see things in the worst possible way.”可知，过度思考会导致负面情绪，而excited“感到兴奋的”不是负面情绪。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Or maybe everyone will laugh at you if you lose.”可知，过度思考的人可能会担心他人嘲笑你的失败。故选A。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据“So, instead of sitting and thinking about a problem again and again, you can pay attention to something else instead of the problem itself. Your brain might find better ways to solve the problem while you’re doing something fun, like gardening, watching a comedy or even sleeping.”可知，本段给出了转移注意力具体方式，比如园艺、看喜剧甚至睡觉，是通过举例来支撑自己的观点的。故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据“ It can be hard at first, but the following ways can help you know whether you are overthinking.”可推知，下文会给出一些方法，帮助你了解你是否想太多了。故选C。 C Doing exercise is very important for a happy and healthy life. So people all over the world have invented many kinds of exercise so far. Baduanjin, a kind of Chinese traditional sport, is just one of them. The traditional Chinese exercise was invented over eight hundred years ago. At first, it was used as one kind of basic exercise for Shaolin Wushu. Compared with other sports, such as ball games and swimming, Baduanjin is slow and gentle, and usually accompanied (伴随) by soft and relaxing music, so it has been considered as a sport for the elderly. But lately, as an official video of Baduanjin got popular on the Internet, it has also become a new favorite for young people. As the name shows, Baduanjin is made up of eight groups of movements in total. At the same time, people may feel like they are wearing a dress made of soft silk after doing the exercise, so it’s also called “Eight Pieces of Silk”. Many young people come to realize the beauty of the sport. Baduanjin is easy to learn and requires no tools and little space. So it’s perfect for office workers, as they often feel a pain in their neck and shoulders, which is caused by long hours of sitting. For example, the first movement “Two hands supporting the sky” is helpful to the headache, backache and so on. The fifth movement “Shaking the head and tail” helps you to lower the stress and relax your back and neck. “I’ve been doing Baduanjin for a month, which makes me sleep better. I think Baduanjin is really helpful.” a young netizen (网民) wrote below the video. Besides him, many people said Baduanjin could help them get relaxed. Sun Yuxuan, a college student, has also noticed the rising popularity of Baduanjin. The 21-year-old girl has been teaching other students to practice it for over three years. They started with 12 members in 2021 and the group has 85 members now. “Every member in the group is very active. I didn’t expect that it could attract so many young people. I guess that’s because they know it is really good for our health,” she said. 28. Which of the following is NOT the good points of Baduanjin? A. It is easy to learn. B. It requires no tools and little space. C. It is good for our health. D. It is a quick and silent sport. 29. If you often have a headache, which of the following movement of Baduanjin is better for you to practice? A. B. C. D. 30. The underlined word “it” (in Para. 6) refers to_________. A. the group B. every member C. the sport D. three years 31. The writer writes the article to_________. A. introduce many kinds of exercise B. ask us to teach others to practice Baduanjin C. spread the popularity of Baduanjin D. ask us not to practice Baduanjin 【答案】28. D 29. A 30. C 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了八段锦作为中国一项传统的运动，越来越受到全民的喜爱，同时也介绍了这项运动的特点及受人们欢迎的原因。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Baduanjin is slow and gentle”可知，八段锦的动作缓慢而温柔，D项“这是一项快速而无声的运动”不相符。故选D。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据“ For example, the first movement “Two hands supporting the sky” is helpful to the headache, backache and so on.”可知，第一个动作“双手托天”有助于缓解头痛、背痛等，对照图片可知图片A符合。故选A。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Sun Yuxuan, a college student, has also noticed the rising popularity of Baduanjin”及“ I guess that’s because they know it is really good for our health,”可知，此处的it指代“八段锦这项运动”。故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。文章第一段提出了八段锦这项运动，接着介绍八段锦不仅适合老年人，年轻人也越来越喜欢这项运动，接下来介绍练习八段锦对身体的好处，最后用事例来说明人们对八段锦的热爱，由此可知，作者的目的是向大家介绍并普及八段锦这项运动。 故选C。 D My mother comes from a traditional family, and she looks just like many grandmothers. She worked as a government officer her whole life. In short, she didn’t do crazy things. But that all changed a few years ago. I still remember the year when she turned 80. She surprised my brother and me with what she described as “independence”. One day she told us that she had booked a seven-night trip to Italy. Alone. Because she had never been there before, and that was one of her dreams. Of course, that was ridiculous. There was no way my brother and I could allow that. A weak, little old lady walking around the strange streets of Italy on her own, not speaking a word of Italian, with no knowledge of the laws and customs of the land—it was out of the question! She paid no attention to us. She told us she had to go instead of staying at home, watching TV all day long. She wanted to change a new environment and meet new people. She needed to experience something new. We had to send her to the airport, and of course in the next several days, my brother and I waited nervously, hoping that God could return our mother to us safely. Finally, the day came when she walked out of the airport, with her eyes shining. We felt she seemed as if she were in her thirties again. She told us it had been a wonderful success. As it turned out, she had hardly spent any time alone after asking a taxi driver to show her around the country for some days. He took her to all kinds of places—the markets, churches and restaurants. He introduced her to a blanket (毛毯) seller. “A lovely man,” and she bought some blankets. The seller took her address and promised to mail the blankets home. The seller and my mother clearly built a friendship and she told him to drop by if he were ever in Canada. My mother laughed happily when she told this story. However, we thought she was cheated. To our great surprise, her blankets did arrive some weeks later, along with a lovely note from the seller Leonardo. To our even greater surprise, the following year Leonardo himself arrived, who was a handsome young man. My mother was busy showing him around those days and they did build a stronger friendship. The mouths of my brother and I fell open in surprise. Her character of independence shows she totally understands that life is to be lived. It reminded me of the line from the movie The Shawshank Redemption (肖申克的救赎): “Get busy living or get busy dying.” 32. Why did the writer’s mother go to Italy? A. To prepare herself to enter the world of the old. B. To tell the writer and her brother she was crazy. C. To make the writer and her brother surprised. D. To make her life meaningful and realize her dream. 33. In which of the following sentences can we fill the underlined word “ridiculous”? A. It is really __________ to camp outside with shining stars in the sky. B. The fat old man looked _________ in a pink skirt and a green T-shirt. C. You must be _________ after getting such good grades. D. I am a little _________ because I have to give a book report next Monday. 34. Which of the following word best describes the mother’s trip to Italy? A. Traditional. B. Boring. C. Colorful. D. Inexpensive. 35. What might be the correct order of what happened in the story? a. My brother and I sent her to the airport and waited nervously. b. The blankets and a lovely note arrived some weeks later. c. My mother told us she had booked a seven-night trip to Italy. d. She walked out of the airport, with her eyes shining. e. The blanket seller came to visit my mother. A. c-a-d-b-e B. a-d-b-e-c C. c-d-a-e-b D. a-c-e-b-d 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了作者的妈妈在80岁那年，用她所说的“独立性”让作者和哥哥感到惊讶。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Because she had never been there before, and that was one of her dreams”以及“She wanted to change a new environment and meet new people. She needed to experience something new.”可知那是妈妈的梦想，她想经历一些新事物，所以妈妈要去意大利是让她的生活有意义，实现她的梦想。故选D。 【33题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“Of course, that was ridiculous. There was no way my brother and I could allow that”可知作者和哥哥绝不会允许妈妈一个人去意大利，所以他们认为这是荒谬的，故此处划线部分意为“荒谬的”，可放选项B“那个胖老头穿着粉红色的裙子和绿色的T恤，看起来很滑稽”中。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“She told us it had been a wonderful success. As it turned out, she had hardly spent any time alone after asking a taxi driver to show her around the country for some days. He took her to all kinds of places—the markets, churches and restaurants. He introduced her to a blanket (毛毯) seller”可知她告诉我们，这是一个巨大的成功，事实证明，在请出租车司机带她周游全国几天后，她几乎没有独处过，他带她去了各种各样的地方——市场、教堂和餐馆，可见她的旅行是多姿多彩的。故选C。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据“One day she told us that she had booked a seven-night trip to Italy.”可知妈妈告诉我们，她已经预订了一次为期七晚的意大利之旅，故c排第一位，排除BD；根据“We had to send her to the airport,”可知然后作者和哥哥把妈妈送到机场，a排第二位，排除C。故选A。 E ①We all believe the famous saying “Practice makes perfect”, but have you even thought whether practice really makes perfect? ②One popular theory (理论) is that if a person practises for at least 10,000 hours, he will reach “perfection”—or, in other words, become an expert in his field. This theory was made famous by Malcolm Gladwell in his book, Outliers: The Story of Success, which has been taken to mean that enough practice will make anyone an expert. In the book, Gladwell says that “ten thousand hours is the magic number of greatness”. He gives the examples of the music group The Beatles and Microsoft co-creator Bill Gates. Although they all seemed to have lots of natural talent, they also clearly put in over 10,000 hours of practice before they became successful. ③ ▲ For example, his work was largely based on research done by Anders Ericsson, who argued that Gladwell misunderstood his research in some ways. Firstly, Ericsson said that 10,000 hours was an average (平均的) number. Some people, for example, needed far fewer than 10,000 hours, and others needed many more. More importantly, Ericsson said that the quality (质量) of practice was also of great importance. ④So what are the other reasons that help people become experts? ⑤Many people say that natural talent has a large influence on becoming an expert, which can be often found in sports. For example, many baseball players in America can see the ball much sooner than others do. So no matter how much a “normal” person practises, it is very hard for them to be as good as someone who has natural talent or physical advantages and who also practices. ⑥And how about other reasons that help create an expert? Many say IQ, personality, attitude (态度) and starting age are decisive reasons, too. ⑦In conclusion, practice may not make perfect, but practice of high quality may lead to important improvement. Here are some suggestions on how to practise effectively (高效): be motivated (if somebody is motivated, he or she wants to do something, especially something that needs hard work), make exact and practical goals, work outside your comfort zone (区域), continue to try, ask for others’ opinions, and of course, get lots of rest! For those who want to become an expert in something, remember that being motivated is the key-enjoy what you do and follow what you love. 36. Which sentence can be put in ▲ ? A. Plenty of people agreed with Gladwell and what he said in the book. B. However, Gladwell’s theory has been said by some people to be too simple. C. A great number of people had done some research after Gladwell. D. However, Gladwell’s idea was said to be totally wrong by many. 37. What can we infer from the passage? A. If you practise hard enough you are sure to be an expert. B. Natural talent has a large influence on becoming an expert. C. Only practising a lot was not enough to be an expert. D. Ten thousand hours will create greatness for sure. 38. What can be the best title for the text? A. A New Scientific Discovery B. Does Practice Really Make Perfect? C.

Many people say that natural talent has a large influence on becoming an expert.”“Many say IQ, personality, attitude (态度) and starting age are decisive reasons, too.”及空后的“Enough practice; practice of high quality; natural talent; IQ; personality; attitude; starting age; social reasons....”可知，第三个空是原因，故填Reasons；根据“Here are some suggestions on how to practise effectively: be motivated..., make exact and practical goals...”及空后的“Be motivated; make exact and practical goals...”可知，第四个空是建议，故填Suggestions。故选D。 V. 口语运用。（每小题1分, 共5分） 阅读下面对话，从7个选项中选择5个恰当的句子完成此对话。 A: Hey, Jack!

His casual (随意的) style stood him apart from his competitors in the 10-meter air pistol mixed team event (10米气手枪混合决赛).

He also hold several titles from the World and European Championships for different events. “I shoot with both eyes, but most shooters do it with one. So I did not need special equipment (装备). Shooting with two eyes—I believe that it’s better. I have done a lot of research on it, so I didn’t need the equipment. I shot with my hand in my pocket because I just felt more comfortable while shooting. In this way my body would not swing. Although I looked calm on the outside, there was a storm inside.” Dikec told the media, “I’m a natural shooter.” “Success doesn’t come with your hands in your pockets.” is another sentence he said to the media. In fact, his calm shot is the result of 24 years of hard work. He trains for 4-5 hours six days a week. As for the question when he had received the information that he would take part in the Olympics, he said it was just two hours before the competition. He happened to be in Paris on business and was about to have lunch with his friend, after which he would have another meeting in the afternoon.
