第二部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2.5分,满分50分)
A
Is an Electric Vehicle fight for you?
Many people will ask themselves that question for the first time this year. Prices are falling, battery range is rising and mainstream brands are adding new EVs at a breakneck pace.
Here are three things anybody seriously considering buying an EV should know:
1. The price to install (安装) a 240v charger
Anybody who owns an electric vehicle needs a 240-volt charger at home. With one, you can recharge overnight, so you start every day with the equal amount of a full tank.
Just a few years ago, home 240v EV chargers cost $2,500-$3,000, including installation, but prices have declined as competition grows with the number of EVs on the road.
2. The time it takes to charge
About 80% of miles driven in EVs are powered by electricity charged at home but you’ll need to charge elsewhere occasionally. That’s when charging time becomes a big deal, but how long it takes depends on a couple of factors.
First, voltage (电压) from the charger. Getting 250 miles of range in seven hours from a 240v charger is fine when you re charging overnight at home, but it’s a problem if you’re going 300 miles for a weekend trip. In that case, you’ll want to look for a 400v fast charger. They’re not as common as 240v public chargers yet, but they’re becoming more widespread.
There’s another factor: the on-board charger. It regulates how fast the battery can accept electricity. A vehicle with a higher-capacity on-board charger accepts electricity faster.
3. Where to charge
Good route-planning apps will help you find chargers on a road trip easily.
“Most people have no idea how many public charging stations are within, say, a 10-or 15-mile radius (半径) because they’re small, people don’t look for them or even don’t know what to look for, and they’re rarely signposted,” said journalist John Voelcker, who has studied EVs and charging exhaustively.
4. On the horizon
If an EV doesn’t meet your needs now, watch this space. They’re coming closer. but large numbers of gasoline vehicles will remain in production for years. Beyond that, companies will keep making spare parts for oil-burners for decades.
36. What is the primary benefit of having a 240-volt charger at home for EV owners?
A. It allows for faster travel. B. It enables overnight recharging.
C. It reduces the cost of electricity. D. It increases the battery capacity.
37. What is a significant factor affecting how long it takes to charge an EV?
A. The speed of the vehicle. B. The weight of the vehicle.
C. The type of battery used. D. The voltage from the charger.
38. According to the article, how do most people feel about public charging stations?
A. They find them easy to locate.
B. They are well aware of their locations.
C. They often underestimate their availability.
D. They prefer to use home chargers completely.
39. What does the article suggest about the future of gasoline vehicles?
A They will be completely disappear in a few years.
B. They will continue to be produced for years.
C. They will become more expensive than EVs.
D. They will have better technology than EVs.
40. This passage is mainly intended to .
A. offer advice on purchasing an electric vehicle.
B. illustrate the factors charging time depends on.
C. look forward to the future of electric vehicles.
D. explain the reason for the falling prices of electric vehicles.
B
Barditch High School decided to an All-School Reunion. Over 450 people came to the event. There were tours of the old school building and a picnic at Confederate Park. Several former teachers were on hand to tell stories about the old days. Ms. Mabel Yates, the English teacher for fifty years, was wheeled to the Park.
Some eyes rolled and there were a few low groans (嘟囔声) when Ms.Yates was about to speak. Many started looking at their watches and coming up with excuses to be anywhere instead of preparing to listen to a lecture from an old woman who had few kind words for her students and made them work harder than all the other teachers combined.
Then Ms. Yates started to speak:
“I can’t tell you how pleased I am to be here. I haven’t seen many of you since your graduation, but I have followed your careers and enjoyed your victories as well as crying for your tragedies. I have a large collection of newspaper photographs of my students. Although I haven’t appeared in person, I have attended your college graduations, weddings and even the birth your children, in my imagination.”
Ms. Yates paused and started crying a bit. Then she continued:
“It was my belief that if I pushed you as hard as I could, some of you would succeed to please me and others would succeed to annoy me. Regardless of our motives, I can see that you have all been successful in you chosen path.”
“There is no greater comfort for an educator than to see the end result of his or her years of work. You have all been a great source of pleasure and pride for me and I want you to know I love you all from the bottom of my heart.”
There was a silence over the crowd for a few seconds and then someone started clapping. The clapping turned into cheering, then into a deafening roar (呼喊). Lawyers, truck drivers, bankers and models were rubbing their eyes or crying openly with no shame all because of the words from a long forgotten English teacher from their hometown.
41. What activity was organized for the school reunion?
A. Sightseeing in the park.
B. A picnic on the school playground.

As people are becoming more socially conscious about where their food comes from and how it impacts the planet, they are choosing animal-free plant-based options. Cow-free meat has been around for quite some time and the popularity of brands like Beyond Meat and cultivated meat from Aleph Farms and others are soaring. While there are a large number of plant-based milk substitutes, none of them have the same taste of cow’s milk. Now, an Israeli food-tech startup Remilk created real dairy products without harming a single cow or the planet.
The company stresses that their product Remilk is not a milk substitute but rather is the real deal. Made from a special process called microbial fermentation (微生物发酵), milk is manufactured in a lab instead of in a cow. And the end product is very healthy. “In a very simple way, we take the gene that encodes for the milk protein,” said Aviv Wolff, CEO of Remilk.”The gene functions as an instruction book for the production of the protein it encodes. And so, we insert the gene into a microbe that we’ve developed and it instructs our microbe to produce the specific protein in a very efficient way.”
The company says that the lab-produced milk tastes identical to the real thing and they hope to eventually replace cows by creating every dairy product sold. They expect to roll out plant-based cheese and yogurt in addition to milk. “Remilk was founded with the mission to stop using animals to produce our food because, as dairy lovers, we realize that giving up on milk is not an option,” Wolff said. “But today’s milk comes with an unreasonable price tag. The dairy industry is destructive to our planet, our health, and our animals, and is simply not sustainable anymore.”
The environmental price tag of dairy farming is way too high. According to the World Wildlife Fund, dairy cows add a huge amount of greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere and contribute to global warming and climate change as well as foul the air around them. Dairy operations consume large amounts of water and run-off of manure (粪肥) and fertilizers from these farms get into local waterways. The production of Remilk uses only 5 percent of the resources and produces only 1 percent of the waste of producing cow’s milk according to the company. And they accomplish this by being 100 percent cruelty-free unlike dairy farms.
46. What distinguishes Remilk from other milk substitutes?
A. It enjoys broad popularity.
B. It has the highest output.
C. It comes in various flavours.
D. It tastes the same as cow’s milk.
47. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The production of Remilk.
B. The nutritional value of Remilk.
C. The role of gene in making protein.
D. The process of microbial fermentation.
48. What can we know from Wolff’s words in paragraph 3?
A. Remilk was set up for animal protection.
B. Dairy industries should be shut down.
C. Remilk aims to produce animal-free food.
D. Prices of cow’s milk are soaring these days.
49. What does the underlined word “foul” probably mean in the last paragraph?
A Clean. B. Heat.
C. Pollute. D. Consume.
50. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Drawing on gene technology, Remilk has developed a variety of dairy products.
B. Conventional dairy industry is anything but eco-friendly.
C. The new technology adopted by Remilk transforms the gene of cows.
D. It’ll be some time before the public get accustomed to the milk substitutes.
D
Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck,talent,and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.
However,to succeed in life,one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical.And,in addition to that,in order to get really good at something,one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing.To become great at certain things,it’ll require even more time,time that most people won’t put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do ,it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.
When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success,you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost.It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent,but thinking that way does you no good,and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.
Whatever you do,if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out,almost to the point of addiction,and over a long period of time.If you’re not willing to put in the time and work,don’t expect to receive any rewards.Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.
51. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ________.
A. the reasons for success B. the meaning of success
C. the standards of success D. the importance of success
52. In Paragraph 2,the underlined word that refers to ______.
A. being good at something B. setting a practical goal
C. putting in more time D. succeeding in life
53. Successful people suggest doing what one loves because ______.
A. work makes one feel pain B. one tends to enjoy his work
C. one gives up his work easily D. it takes a lot of time to succeed
54. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A. Successful people like to show their great skills.
B. People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.
C. People need to achieve success at the cost of life.
D. It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.
55. What is the main theme of the passage?
A. Having a goal is vital to success.
B. Being good is different from being great.
C. One cannot succeed without time and practice.
D. Luck,talent and family help to achieve success.

阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
My dad is a kind, gentle man, and a man of few words. Throughout my life, he offered advice rarely. But the words were always appropriate to the situation I was facing.
As a teen when I struggled with making sense of the world around me, he said, “All things are relative.” He taught me the right view of the world. When I was offered the opportunity to be a manager of an organization as an undergraduate student, I asked him for advice because he was a senior manager of a large company. His advice was simple, “Only when you become the manager can you have a vision for how you can make the organization better; management isn’t about power and it’s about leadership.” I learned what I needed was not only to be responsible for my team but also to have leading ability. When I was feeling down, he explained, “Think that you make the wrong choices in life, sometimes.”
My dad is 86 now, living on his own and enjoying life while struggling with the challenges that aging brings. He keeps a positive attitude despite long pain and the losses that come in life. Although we live quite far away from each other, we talk daily on the phone, and he shares the joys of my young family. As I tell him how we’re heading off cycling or on a trip or out to play tennis, now his typical response is, “Do it while you can.” This is very important. We can’t be sure of the future. My father’s advice is like the ancient dictum(格言)of “ carpe diem”— seize the day and enjoy it to the fullest.
My dad rarely “lectured me”. He trusted me, and helped me when I needed help. His patience and wisdom have been true gifts in my life. As I doubt my ability and my motivation, I recall his most recent gift of wisdom, “Do it while you can”. It’s enough to “just get me started”.
56. Why did the author’s dad tell him “All things are relative.”? (No more than 10 words)
57. What qualities should a manager have according to the author? (No more than 5 words)
58. What is the purpose of the author’s father talking with him on the phone every day? (No more than 10 words)
59. How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? (No more than 10 words)
60. How do you feel about the ancient dictum of “carpe diem”? (No more than 20 words)

A
Is an Electric Vehicle fight for you?
Many people will ask themselves that question for the first time this year. Prices are falling, battery range is rising and mainstream brands are adding new EVs at a breakneck pace.
Here are three things anybody seriously considering buying an EV should know:
1. The price to install (安装) a 240v charger
Anybody who owns an electric vehicle needs a 240-volt charger at home. With one, you can recharge overnight, so you start every day with the equal amount of a full tank.
Just a few years ago, home 240v EV chargers cost $2,500-$3,000, including installation, but prices have declined as competition grows with the number of EVs on the road.
2. The time it takes to charge
About 80% of miles driven in EVs are powered by electricity charged at home, but you’ll need to charge elsewhere occasionally. That’s when charging time becomes a big deal, but how long it takes depends on a couple of factors.
First, voltage (电压) from the charger. Getting 250 miles of range in seven hours from a 240v charger is fine when you re charging overnight at home, but it’s a problem if you’re going 300 miles for a weekend trip. In that case, you’ll want to look for a 400v fast charger. They’re not as common as 240v public chargers yet, but they’re becoming more widespread.
There’s another factor: the on-board charger. It regulates how fast the battery can accept electricity. A vehicle with a higher-capacity on-board charger accepts electricity faster.
3. Where to charge
Good route-planning apps will help you find chargers on a road trip easily.
“Most people have no idea how many public charging stations are within, say, a 10-or 15-mile radius (半径) because they’re small, people don’t look for them or even don’t know what to look for, and they’re rarely signposted,” said journalist John Voelcker, who has studied EVs and charging exhaustively.
4. On the horizon
If an EV doesn’t meet your needs now, watch this space. They’re coming closer. but large numbers of gasoline vehicles will remain in production for years. Beyond that, companies will keep making spare parts for oil-burners for decades.
36 What is the primary benefit of having a 240-volt charger at home for EV owners?
A. It allows for faster travel. B. It enables overnight recharging.
C. It reduces the cost of electricity. D. It increases the battery capacity.
37. What is a significant factor affecting how long it takes to charge an EV?
A. The speed of the vehicle. B. The weight of the vehicle.
C. The type of battery used. D. The voltage from the charger.
38. According to the article, how do most people feel about public charging stations?
A. They find them easy to locate.
B. They are well aware of their locations.
C. They often underestimate their availability.
D. They prefer to use home chargers completely.
39. What does the article suggest about the future of gasoline vehicles?
A. They will be completely disappear in a few years.
B. They will continue to be produced for years.
C. They will become more expensive than EVs.
D. They will have better technology than EVs.
40. This passage is mainly intended to .
A. offer advice on purchasing an electric vehicle.
B. illustrate the factors charging time depends on.
C. look forward to the future of electric vehicles.
D. explain the reason for the falling prices of electric vehicles.
【答案】36. B 37. D 38. C 39. B 40. A

Barditch High School decided to an All-School Reunion. Over 450 people came to the event. There were tours of the old school building and a picnic at Confederate Park. Several former teachers were on hand to tell stories about the old days. Ms. Mabel Yates, the English teacher for fifty years, was wheeled to the Park.
Some eyes rolled and there were a few low groans (嘟囔声) when Ms.Yates was about to speak. Many started looking at their watches and coming up with excuses to be anywhere instead of preparing to listen to a lecture from an old woman who had few kind words for her students and made them work harder than all the other teachers combined.
Then Ms. Yates started to speak:
“I can’t tell you how pleased I am to be here. I haven’t seen many of you since your graduation, but I have followed your careers and enjoyed your victories as well as crying for your tragedies. I have a large collection of newspaper photographs of my students. Although I haven’t appeared in person, I have attended your college graduations, weddings and even the birth your children, in my imagination.”
Ms. Yates paused and started crying a bit. Then she continued:
“It was my belief that if I pushed you as hard as I could, some of you would succeed to please me and others would succeed to annoy me. Regardless of our motives, I can see that you have all been successful in you chosen path.”
“There is no greater comfort for an educator than to see the end result of his or her years of work. You have all been a great source of pleasure and pride for me and I want you to know I love you all from the bottom of my heart.”
There was a silence over the crowd for a few seconds and then someone started clapping. The clapping turned into cheering, then into a deafening roar (呼喊). Lawyers, truck drivers, bankers and models were rubbing their eyes or crying openly with no shame all because of the words from a long forgotten English teacher from their hometown.

C
As people are becoming more socially conscious about where their food comes from and how it impacts the planet, they are choosing animal-free plant-based options. Cow-free meat has been around for quite some time and the popularity of brands like Beyond Meat and cultivated meat from Aleph Farms and others are soaring. While there are a large number of plant-based milk substitutes, none of them have the same taste of cow’s milk. Now, an Israeli food-tech startup Remilk created real dairy products without harming a single cow or the planet.
The company stresses that their product Remilk is not a milk substitute but rather is the real deal. Made from a special process called microbial fermentation (微生物发酵), milk is manufactured in a lab instead of in a cow. And the end product is very healthy. “In a very simple way, we take the gene that encodes for the milk protein,” said Aviv Wolff, CEO of Remilk.”The gene functions as an instruction book for the production of the protein it encodes. And so, we insert the gene into a microbe that we’ve developed and it instructs our microbe to produce the specific protein in a very efficient way.”
The company says that the lab-produced milk tastes identical to the real thing and they hope to eventually replace cows by creating every dairy product sold. They expect to roll out plant-based cheese and yogurt in addition to milk. “Remilk was founded with the mission to stop using animals to produce our food because, as dairy lovers, we realize that giving up on milk is not an option,” Wolff said. “But today’s milk comes with an unreasonable price tag. The dairy industry is destructive to our planet, our health, and our animals, and is simply not sustainable anymore.”
The environmental price tag of dairy farming is way too high. According to the World Wildlife Fund, dairy cows add a huge amount of greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere and contribute to global warming and climate change as well as foul the air around them. Dairy operations consume large amounts of water and run-off of manure (粪肥) and fertilizers from these farms get into local waterways. The production of Remilk uses only 5 percent of the resources and produces only 1 percent of the waste of producing cow’s milk according to the company. And they accomplish this by being 100 percent cruelty-free unlike dairy farms.
46. What distinguishes Remilk from other milk substitutes?
A. It enjoys broad popularity.
B. It has the highest output.
C. It comes in various flavours.
D. It tastes the same as cow’s milk.
47. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The production of Remilk.
B. The nutritional value of Remilk.
C. The role of gene in making protein.
D. The process of microbial fermentation.
48. What can we know from Wolff’s words in paragraph 3?
A. Remilk was set up for animal protection.
B. Dairy industries should be shut down.
C. Remilk aims to produce animal-free food.
D. Prices of cow’s milk are soaring these days.
49 What does the underlined word “foul” probably mean in the last paragraph?
A. Clean. B. Heat.
C. Pollute. D. Consume.
50. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Drawing on gene technology, Remilk has developed a variety of dairy products.
B. Conventional dairy industry is anything but eco-friendly.
C. The new technology adopted by Remilk transforms the gene of cows.
D. It’ll be some time before the public get accustomed to the milk substitutes.
【答案】46. D 47. A 48. C 49. C 50. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了一家以色列食品科技创业公司 Remilk 在不伤害任何一头奶牛或地球的情况下创造了真正的乳制品。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“The company says that the lab-produced milk tastes identical to the real thing and they hope to eventually replace cows by creating every dairy product sold. (该公司表示,实验室生产的牛奶尝起来和真正的牛奶一样,他们希望最终能够通过生产每一种销售的乳制品来取代奶牛。)”可知,Remilk和其他牛奶替代品的不同之处在于它尝起来和牛奶一样。故选D。
【47题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“Made from a special process called microbial fermentation(微生物发酵), milk is manufactured in a lab instead of in a cow. And the end product is very healthy. “In a very simple way, we take the gene that encodes for the milk protein,” said Aviv Wolff, CEO of Remilk.”The gene functions as an instruction book for the production of the protein it encodes. And so, we insert the gene into a microbe that we’ve developed and it instructs our microbe to produce the specific protein in a very efficient way.”(牛奶是由一种叫做微生物发酵的特殊过程制成的,牛奶是在实验室而不是在奶牛体内生产的。最终产品是非常健康的。Remilk 公司首席执行官阿维夫·沃尔夫(Aviv Wolff)说: “用一种非常简单的方法,我们取出牛奶蛋白质的编码基因。”这种基因的作用就像一本指导手册,指导它编码的蛋白质的生产。因此,我们把这个基因插入到我们已经培育出来的微生物中,它指导我们的微生物以一种非常有效的方式产生特定的蛋白质。”)”可知,第二段主要介绍了Remilk的生产过程,故选A。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中Wolff 所说的话“Remilk was founded with the mission to stop using animals to produce our food because, as dairy lovers, we realize that giving up on milk is not an option.(Remilk成立的初衷是停止使用动物生产我们的食物,因为作为乳制品爱好者,我们意识到放弃牛奶不是一种选择。)”可知,Remilk旨在生产非动物性食品。故选C。
【49题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段划线单词所在句子“According to the World Wildlife Fund, dairy cows add a huge amount of greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere and contribute to global warming and climate change as well as foul the air around them.(据世界野生动物基金会称,奶牛向大气层中排放了大量的温室气体,造成了全球变暖和气候变化,并foul它们周围的空气。)”可知,奶牛向大气层中排放了大量的温室气体,这会污染周围的空气,由此可推知,划线单词foul意为“污染”,与C项“Pollute(污染)”同义,故选C。
【50题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“The dairy industry is destructive to our planet, our health, and our animals, and is simply not sustainable anymore(乳制品行业对我们的地球、我们的健康和我们的动物都是破坏性的,而且不再是可持续的了)”和最后一段中“According to the World Wildlife Fund, dairy cows add a huge amount of greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere and contribute to global warming and climate change as well as foul the air around them. Dairy operations consume large amounts of water and run-off of manure(粪肥)and fertilizers from these farms get into local waterways. (奶牛养殖的环境代价太高了。据世界野生动物基金会称,奶牛给大气层增加了大量的温室气体,造成了全球变暖和气候变化,并污染了它们周围的空气。奶牛场消耗了大量的水,而这些农场排出的粪肥和肥料流入了当地的水道。)”可推知,传统的乳制品行业一点都不环保。故选B。

Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck,talent,and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.
However,to succeed in life,one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical.And,in addition to that,in order to get really good at something,one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing.To become great at certain things,it’ll require even more time,time that most people won’t put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do ,it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.
When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success,you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost.It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent,but thinking that way does you no good,and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.
Whatever you do,if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out,almost to the point of addiction,and over a long period of time.If you’re not willing to put in the time and work,don’t expect to receive any rewards.Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.

A. the reasons for success B. the meaning of success
C. the standards of success D. the importance of success
52. In Paragraph 2,the underlined word that refers to ______.
A. being good at something B. setting a practical goal

53. Successful people suggest doing what one loves because ______.

C. one gives up his work easily D. it takes a lot of time to succeed

B. People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.
C. People need to achieve success at the cost of life.
D. It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.

【51题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck,talent,and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.”(有些人认为成功只属于那些有天赋或有良好家庭环境的人,而另一些人则认为成功主要取决于运气。我并不是说运气、天赋和环境没有发挥作用,因为它们确实发挥了作用。有些人出生在正确的家庭,而另一些人出生就很聪明,这就是生活的现实。)可以得知,作者列出许多成功因素天赋、良好家庭环境、运气,故选A。
【52题详解】
词义猜词题。此种题目的答案多数在前文找,根据前文,不难得知答案。“However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in additional to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. ”(然而,要在生活中取得成功,你必须要设定一个目标,然后逐步将它变得更加实际。除此之外,要变得更加擅长某事,必须花费至少10,000个小时进行学习和实践。)可知,除此之外,指的是前面的设定实际的目标。此外,也可以从结构上找到答案,出现两次的needs. 属于原词重现。故选B。
【53题详解】
细节理解题。根据“To become great at certain things,it’ll require even more time,time that most people won’t put in.”(要精通某些事情,甚至需要更多的时间,而大多数人不会投入这些时间。)要想成功需要大量时间。以及第三段的“This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. ”(这就是为什么许多成功人士建议你去做你喜欢的事情的一个重要原因。)可知答案的关键是this。而this 指代的内容刚好是与时间(To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.)有关。属于原词重现。故选D。
【54题详解】
推理判断题 。根据第四段“It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway.” (很容易去认为他们是运气好,或者天生有些独特的天赋,但是这么想对你并无好处,而且极有可能你想错了。)可以得知很多人的成功并不是因为天赋或运气。通过but之后的内容“thinking that way does you no good, and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway.”不难得出答案。而且也可以通过排除法得出答案。A项的“show skills 展现技能”表达错误。C项的表达“at the cost of life 以生命为代价”是错误的,这不符合常理,但这道题最容易出错。D项可以根据第四段最后一句的does you no good排除。故选B。
【55题详解】
主旨大意题。通过文章最后一段主题句“Whatever you do , if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. ”(无论你做什么,如果你想在这方面做得很好,你需要日复一日地工作,几乎到上瘾的程度,而且要持续很长一段时间)以及文章多次提到要花费时间和精力可知正确选项为C。ABD项都是以偏概全。属于原词重现。故选C。

My dad is a kind, gentle man, and a man of few words. Throughout my life, he offered advice rarely. But the words were always appropriate to the situation I was facing.
As a teen when I struggled with making sense of the world around me, he said, “All things are relative.” He taught me the right view of the world. When I was offered the opportunity to be a manager of an organization as an undergraduate student, I asked him for advice because he was a senior manager of a large company. His advice was simple, “Only when you become the manager can you have a vision for how you can make the organization better; management isn’t about power and it’s about leadership.” I learned what I needed was not only to be responsible for my team but also to have leading ability. When I was feeling down, he explained, “Think that you make the wrong choices in life, sometimes.”
My dad is 86 now, living on his own and enjoying life while struggling with the challenges that aging brings. He keeps a positive attitude despite long pain and the losses that come in life. Although we live quite far away from each other, we talk daily on the phone, and he shares the joys of my young family. As I tell him how we’re heading off cycling or on a trip or out to play tennis, now his typical response is, “Do it while you can.” This is very important. We can’t be sure of the future. My father’s advice is like the ancient dictum(格言)of “ carpe diem”— seize the day and enjoy it to the fullest.
My dad rarely “lectured me”. He trusted me, and helped me when I needed help. His patience and wisdom have been true gifts in my life. As I doubt my ability and my motivation, I recall his most recent gift of wisdom, “Do it while you can”. It’s enough to “just get me started”.
56. Why did the author’s dad tell him “All things are relative.”? (No more than 10 words)
57. What qualities should a manager have according to the author? (No more than 5 words)
58. What is the purpose of the author’s father talking with him on the phone every day? (No more than 10 words)
59. How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? (No more than 10 words)
60. How do you feel about the ancient dictum of “carpe diem”? (No more than 20 words)
【答案】56. To teach the author the right view of the world.
57. Both responsibility and leading ability.
58. Learning (To learn) more about the pleasure of the author’s family.
59. His father’s words make him take action.
60. Open.(Answers may vary)
(One possible version: ) I totally agree with it, because I think one should seize the day to enjoy his life without regret.
【解析】
【分析】本文为记叙文。作者介绍了自己的父亲及父亲对自己的教导和启发。
【56题详解】
根据第二段中的As a teen when I struggled with making sense of the world around me, he said, “All things are relative.” He taught me the right view of the world.可知,作者的父亲说“所有的事情都是相对的。”是为了教给作者正确的世界观。考虑词数限制,故答To teach the author the right view of the world.
【57题详解】
根据第二段中的I learned what I needed was not only to be responsible for my team but also to have leading ability.可知,作者明白了作为经理他需要的不仅仅是对团队负责,还要有领导能力。考虑词数限制,故答Both responsibility and leading ability.
【58题详解】
根据第三段中的Although we live quite far away from each other, we talk daily on the phone, and he shares the joys of my young family. 可知,作者的父亲每天和他通电话的目的实际上是想分享年轻家庭的快乐。考虑词数限制,故答Learning (To learn) more about the pleasure of the author’s family.
【59题详解】
根据最后一段中的As I doubt my ability and my motivation, I recall his most recent gift of wisdom, “Do it while you can”. It’s enough to “just get me started”可知,当作者怀疑自己的能力和动机时,他会想起父亲最近赐予他的智慧——“趁你能做的时候去做”。这足以让我“开始”了。由此可知,划线句意为,父亲的话让自己行动起来。考虑词数限制,故答His father’s words make him take action.
【60题详解】
此题答案不统一,答题时要有立场、要有依据,同时注意字数限制。例如:I totally agree with it, because I think one should seize the day to enjoy his life without regret.(我完全同意,因为我认为一个人应该抓住这一天,享受他的生活没有遗憾)
