By cleanly stomping back-to-back 1800 tricks, the teenager landed the biggest prize so far in his young career—gold in the men’s Big Air at the Beijing Winter Olympics. The notable achievement realized a childhood dream to reach the peak of the sport, which he began to learn at the age of 4. Now with two shinning medals hung around his neck, the 17-year-old described his superb Olympic debut (首秀) as an unbelievable experience that has made all his sacrifices worthwhile. “This feels so surreal that I’ve finally accomplished what I’ve dreamed of since I was little,” said an emotional Su. Over the past four years Su has combined his talent with hard work to produce one of the swiftest rises to prominence the sport has ever seen. When the Shougang Big Air venue hosted its first international event, Su was an unknown qualifier, who didn’t even make the final runs. Just over two years later, Su is the name on everyone’s lips at the venue s Olympic debut—drawing the whole nation’s attention to the sport he loves. “The biggest motivation (动力) for me is my love for snowboarding,” Su said, when asked about the secret to his success. “In snowboarding, I feel like I can show my own style and creativity. Every time I ride my board, it’s always a joyful moment. I hope through my experience, I can inspire more young people to get interested in the sport.” Su, a former child actor who featured in action movies, said the Olympic gold will encourage him to seek for more breakthroughs—even beyond his athletic career. “I enjoy snowboarding just as much as I enjoy acting,” said Su, who turns 18 on Friday. “I think I still have a lot of possibilities to explore in my future career either in snowboarding or in acting. But now I just want to enjoy the moment and celebrate it as the best possible birthday gift.” 1. What does the underlined word “landed” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Arrived. B. Gained. C. Created. D. Dreamed. 2. According to Su himself, what is his secret to his success? A. His acting experience. B. His talent and hard working. C. His passion for snowboarding. D. His life dream of achieving success. 3. Which of the following words can best describe Su? A. Talented and thoughtful. B. Generous and productive. C. Creative and kind-hearted. D. Hard-working and devoted. 4. What’s Su’s attitude toward his future? A. Upset. B. Hopeful. C. Anxious. D. Careful. B Oliver, the CTO of a high-tech company, loved to participate in all conversations at the C-suite level, regardless of topic. He was often the first to raise his hand for a project, appeared to have infinite capacity to get high-quality work done, and offered to assist his peers and direct reports. Oliver seemed to be all-in; optimistic, energetic, supportive, and someone who constituted to everyone. However, the more Oliver participated, the more others around him were slighted. Instead of sparking creatively in others, his ideas outshone everyone else’s. He consumed time speaking in meetings, exhausting the oxygen level in the room. Oliver felt pumped up by how many of his ideas had been deployed but frustrated by others’ lack of sufficient effort. While the CEO appreciated Oliver’s yield, she recognized he had to change his approach to keep the rest of the team productive. In response, Oliver worked out a plan to help address his cooperation challenges using techniques many other executives had deployed. When we over-participate, we believe that we're being helpful. However, “helpfulness” is defined by the recipient, not the giver. Instead of improving his relationships with colleagues, Oliver robbed them of fulfillment by furnishing masses of ideas. They felt discouraged, interrupted, and excluded. To fix the issue, Oliver learned the value of asking two specific questions before offering his own ideas: “What have you thought of?” and “What would be most helpful for you at this point?” Surveying others to understand what’s helpful illuminates better avenues for our contribution: directly through our ideas, through coaching colleagues to create their own, or by building on what someone else has generated. 5. What can we learn about Oliver? A. He lacks creativity. B. He favours competition. C. He works enthusiastically. D. He behaves irresponsibly. 6. What is a result of Oliver’s over-participation? A. The team generated more diverse ideas. B. Oliver’s colleagues became less productive. C. Group meetings were more time-consuming. D. Oliver’s teammates were inspired to work harder. 7. What technique did Oliver employ to fix the issue? A. Hearing others’ voices. B. Providing specific ideas. C. Strengthening his leadership. D. Building strong relationships. 8. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. When Leaders Fail to Keep the Team Productive B. When Contributing Gets in the Way of Cooperating C. How a Great Team Welcomes Ideas in a Discussion D. How Active Participation Gives Rise to a Better Team 四、完形填空(共15小题：每题2分, . 满分30分) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中, 选出可以填入空白 处的最佳选项。 I opened the door of our campervan (房车).

Instead of sparking creatively in others, his ideas outshone everyone else’s. He consumed time speaking in meetings, exhausting the oxygen level in the room.

(然而，Oliver参与得越多，他周围的人就越受冷落。他的想法没有激发别人的创造力，反而比别人的更有创意。他花时间在会议上发言，耗尽了房间里的氧气水平。Oliver对自己的许多想法被采纳感到鼓舞，但对其他人的努力不足感到沮丧)”可知，Oliver参与得越多，其他同事就越沮丧、不受重视、无法激发创造力，Oliver过度参与的结果是同事们的工作效率降低了。故选B。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“To fix the issue, Oliver learned the value of asking two specific questions before offering his own ideas: “What have you thought of?” and “What would be most helpful for you at this point?” Surveying others to understand what's helpful illuminates better avenues for our contribution: directly through our ideas, through coaching colleagues to create their own, or by building on what someone else has generated.(为了解决这个问题，Oliver学会了在提出自己的想法之前问两个具体问题的价值：“你有什么想法？”以及“此时什么对你最有帮助？”通过调查他人来了解什么是有帮助的，可以为我们的贡献指明更好的途径：直接通过我们的想法，通过指导同事创造他们自己的想法，或者在其他人的想法的基础上继续发展)”可知，Oliver通过问其他同事问题，来倾听他人的声音来解决这个问题。故选A。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“When we over-participate, we believe that we're being helpful. However, “helpfulness” is defined by the recipient, not the giver. Instead of improving his relationships with colleagues, Oliver robbed them of fulfillment by furnishing masses of ideas. They felt discouraged, interrupted, and excluded. To fix the issue, Oliver learned the value of asking two specific questions before offering his own ideas: “What have you thought of?” and “What would be most helpful for you at this point?” Surveying others to understand what's helpful illuminates better avenues for our contribution: directly through our ideas, through coaching colleagues to create their own, or by building on what someone else has generated. (当我们过度参与时，我们认为自己是在帮助别人。然而，“帮助”是由接受者定义的，而不是给予者。Oliver非但没有改善与同事的关系，反而提出了大量的想法，剥夺了他们的成就感。他们感到沮丧、被打断、被排斥。为了解决这个问题，Oliver学会了在提出自己的想法之前问两个具体问题的价值：“你有什么想法？”以及“此时什么对你最有帮助？”通过调查他人来了解什么是有帮助的，可以为我们的贡献指明更好的途径：直接通过我们的想法，通过指导同事创造他们自己的想法，或者在其他人的想法的基础上继续发展)”结合文章主要讲述了Oliver工作很热情，但是他的过度参与（对团队的贡献）反而降低了团队的工作效率，他参与得越多，他周围的人就越受冷落，不利于合作。于是Oliver通过倾听他人的声音，来指导同事创造他们自己的想法，从而提高团队工作效率。可知，B选项“当贡献妨碍合作时”最符合文章标题。故选B。 完形填空 【答案】1.
