In our fast--paced(快节泰的)world,speed is often mistaken for success.We
admire those who achieve their goals rapidly,yet we don't pay much attention to those
who take longer to reach the same destination.A recent university graduate,Yu Yifan,
has started a scholarship (program to challenge this way of thinking.
Yu Yifan,who just finished Sichuan University,gave 30,000 yuan to his school in
November to create a scholarship.This scholarship is not for the top students,but for
those who are not in the top 25 percent of their class.Yu wants to help students who are
not doing so well now but are working hard to get better.
This scholarship helps us look at education in a new way.It's not just about getting
good grades,but also about the journey of learning.As the American thinker Mortimer J.
Adler said,"The purpose of learning is growth."Because of different learning methods
and situations,some students learn fast,while some learn slowly,but all students can
grow if they keep trying.Efforts and failures are a natural part of learning,helping
students think clearly,solve problems and develop as successful students.
Nowadays,we often call students "winners"or"losers"based on their results.The
best students get a lot of praise,but the hard work of slower students is not seen.Yu
himself recalled feeling lost and anxious when he was falling behind.Support from his
teacher helped him get back his confidence.
Yu's scholarship serves as more than financial (help,but it is an act of
understanding.Each step forward,no matter how small,is a step towards success.
37.What is the main purpose of Yu Yifan's scholarship?
A.To give money to the fastest achievers.
B.To support students who are in the top 25 percent.
C.To help students who are working hard to improve.
D.To encourage students to focus on the final results.
38.What does the underlined word"destination"mean in the the passage?
A.A place to visit.
B.The final goal.
C.A starting point.
D.A praise for success.
39.How did Yu Yifan's teacher help him?
A.By giving him financial support.
B.By taking his failures seriously.
C.By helping him feel confident again.
D.By showing him that grades matter.

43.How does the writer develop the third and fourth paragraphs?

D.By giving examples.
44.What does the underlined word"them"in the fourth paragraph mean?

B.Fruit flies.
C.The experiments.
D.Two projects.
45.Which is the right structure of the passage?(1=Paragraph 1-Paragraph 2...)
②③④
B
C
D
46.What's the writer's main purpose of writing the passage?

C.To describe scientific experiments in space.
D.To introduce China's fourth manned mission.
