Don't you believe me? Here are four people who lived through failure before going on to become names known around the world. Walt Disney Disney began his career by being fired by a newspaper for not being creative enough. Later, his Mickey Mouse cartoons were rejected because they were considered to be “too scary for women”. Also, The Three Little Pigs was turned down because it only had four characters. Thankfully, we have the Disney Company today because Disney chose not to listen to any of his critics and press forward towards his dreams. Stephen King King is a best-selling writer whose work has been made into several motion pictures. However, his first work was rejected 30 times, which led to King throwing it in the trash. Thankfully, his wife persuaded him to keep working at it, and — from that poor start — Carrie was born. Milton Hershey The man who blessed us with the sweet milk chocolate treat we all love wasn't a hit the first time around. He once worked for a local candy factory. But when he went out on his own, he failed miserably. Then he returned to the family farm and perfected the art of making delicious milk chocolate candy, which we enjoy today. Theodor Geisel This author struggled to write a novel that publishing companies would call “pure rubbish” several times — 27 to be exact. The man just wouldn't quit, though. One fateful night, he ran into an old friend who was a children's literature editor. The friend agreed to publish Geisel's work. Better known today as Dr Seuss, Geisel was never again called a failure after his first book became a hit. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了四位名人的经历，这四个人在获得成功之前都遭遇了失败。 1．Why is the Disney Company known to us nowadays?

D．They were successful at the very start. √ 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中“Here are four people who lived through failure before going on to become names known around the world.”可知，这四个人在获得成功之前都遭遇了失败。 B Last Saturday, as my then-9-year-old son, Leopold, and I were preparing for a mom-son ski trip, I came up with a rule: We would say yes to everything.Leopold is hesitant to try new things, and he has phobias (恐惧), including heights, spiders and the dark. I was hoping to find a way to encourage him without resorting to worn-out sayings like “If you don't try it, you'll never know if you like it.” So I borrowed the idea of a Yes Day, something our family has done a handful of times since watching the movie of the same name.Before the trip, Leopold and I agreed we would say yes to everything, including food and experiences — especially new ones. After we got settled at our hotel, I took Leopold to meet his snowboarding instructor.While he was in snowboarding school, I skied by myself.On the first day, I played it safe and stuck to the long and winding easy green run.On the second day, I thought of Leopold, who, the day before, had kept to our bargain and faced his fear of heights to learn how to ride a chairlift.I challenged myself to ski, an intermediate blue run, diligent S-turns, and I made it.I was proud of myself for trying something new. Later that afternoon, when Leopold and I were reunited back at the lodge, he asked if we could go in the outdoor hot tub (热水澡)．When I started to refuse, Leopold kept to our agreement.But it was also exciting to feel the cold air on my skin, and the warm water of the hot tub felt that much better once we got in.Getting out was a different story, but the experience was a delight as Leopold and I braved it together. We had so much fun saying yes to everything that Leopold and I decided we should get the rest of the family — his dad and sister — on board during our spring break trip. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者的儿子对尝试新事物犹豫不决，因此，作者制订了一条规则：要对所有事情都说“是”。渐渐地，作者的儿子变得愿意尝试新事物了。 4．What did the author expect to do through the mom-son ski trip? A．To learn ski skills. B．To inspire her son. C．To give themselves a break.

D．Leopold becomes willing to try new things. √ 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，利奥波德变得愿意尝试新事物。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 Medicine is a degree that consists of an endless number of exams, and recently I received my first year results. ___ Upon reflection I believe that this is partly as a result of failure itself. Failure brings judgement from others, a topic of discussion for people and the right for others to say you are not capable. The stress associated with failure is created by others around you, rather than by the event itself. 8 I have recently been reading The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel, which clarifies that failure has a strong presence among those who have achieved success. ___ However, rarely will they see how many times his investments have failed. The process of achieving success has often involved setbacks and “failures” along the way. I was rejected by medical schools which I'd spent time and effort applying to and preparing for. ___ It put my final grade in a dangerous situation. Despite all of this, I ended up getting my master's with honors. I also began pursuing my doctoral degree last year. 9 10 ___ But you should know that with each failure you are closer to success, building further layers to the foundations you started. Behind every successful person are more obstacles and setbacks, but these are not as interesting to focus on or as enviable. The noise around you, whether it is from co-workers, friends or parents, should not shake your belief in your abilities. ___ Learn what you need and correct your approach until you have success. 11 12 A．You are guaranteed a lifetime of success. B．Failure is your platform to achieve success. C．I was accepted by some famous universities. D．You may not be successful the first, second or however many times. E．People will always focus on Warren Buffett's success as an investor. F．Waiting for those results was one of the most anxiety-generating experiences. G．And I once received a “pass” grade on an important research paper during my master's. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了失败不可怕，反而是通往成功的平台。 8．解析：选F　根据上文可知，作者收到了第一年的成绩，本句为本段最后一句，应承接上文说明作者对这一事件的感受。故F项“等待那些结果是最让人焦虑的经历之一”符合语境。 9．解析：选E　根据下文“However, rarely will ... have failed.”可知，后文与本句构成转折，后文提到了投资的失败，本句应说明某人的成功。故E项“人们总是关注沃伦·巴菲特作为投资者的成功”符合语境。 10．解析：选G　根据下文可知，作者拿到硕士学位，本句应说明作者读硕士期间遇到的事情。故G项“在我读硕士期间，我有一篇重要的研究论文得了‘及格’的成绩”衔接下文，符合语境。 11．解析：选D　下文提到人可以通过每次失败慢慢接近成功，故D项“你可能第一次、第二次或很多次都不会成功”衔接下文，符合语境。选项中的“not be successful”对应下文中的“failure”。 12．解析：选B　根据下文可知，要学会从失败中吸取教训，不断改正自己的方法以获取成功。故B项“失败是你取得成功的平台”衔接下文，符合语境。 UNIT 2　单元语基盘查与仿真训练评价 测评卷(一)　单元语基盘查 Ⅰ.在空白处填入括号内单词的正确形式——词形转换(32分) (1)It's significant to be __________ (ambition) and hard-working.

Alaina Gassler Alaina won the $25,000 Samueli Foundation Prize for the project of reducing blind spots in cars. She was inspired to solve this issue by her mother who didn't like driving her vehicle because its large A-pillar (A柱) design made her feel in danger. “I started to think about how blind spots were a huge problem in all cars，” said Alaina. So she worked on and solved it. Sidor Clare Sidor won the $10,000 Marconi/Samueli Award for Innovation, an honor made by Samueli's generous donation of his 2012 Marconi Society Prize Award. She developed bricks that could one day be made on Mars, so that humans wouldn't be required to carry building materials with them in order to build there. Alexis MacAvoy Alexis won the $10,000 Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Award for Health Advancement, which recognized the student whose work and performance showed the most promise in health-related fields and demonstrated an understanding of the many social factors that affect health. She designed a water filter (过滤器) by using carbon to remove heavy metals from water. Rachel Bergey Rachel won the $10,000 Lemelson Award for Invention, awarded by The Lemelson Foundation to a young inventor creating promising solutions to real-world problems. She developed a trap made of tinfoil (锡纸) and netting for the spotted lanternfly, an invasive species causing damage to trees. 语篇解读：本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四个学生的发明以及各自的特点。 1．What is the purpose of Alaina Gassler's invention?

While explaining his shift from performance to teaching, Weihmuller said, “All great performers teach, and it's the only way to pass along this craft, especially about jazz music.I found that teaching became more my calling than performing.I wanted to make a difference, and that was really important to me.” Innovatively, Weihmuller uses a unique teaching method to enhance communication among jazz students.When practising a play, he turns off the lights, removes the visual elements and forces students to rely more on their other senses.They have to feel their instrument with their fingers and hands.Weihmuller's own blindness has fueled his mastery of other senses, particularly crucial in playing jazz.“You have to turn your disadvantage into an advantage.Where there is a will, there is a way.” Weihmuller said. Reflecting on his early struggles with sheet music, Weihmuller recalled the challenge of obtaining braille (盲文) music, which was not as accessible then as it is today.To overcome this obstacle, he had to create his own braille music, a process that continued through his college years. Weihmuller has a strong desire to influence his students with value of perseverance and musical progression.His ultimate goal is to inspire others facing challenges and disabilities.He added, “I do hope that when they leave my classroom, they're not only better musicians but also better people.” 语篇解读：本文是一篇人物传记。文章主要讲述了一位天生失明的音乐家Matthew Weihmuller的励志故事，包括他的教育背景、音乐成就、教学方法以及他如何面对困难并激励他人的经历。 4．What can we learn about Weihmuller from paragraph 1?

Researchers say they are able to make decisions far faster than those with non-dominant personalities. It could explain why so many top CEOs and politicians are known for their dominant personalities. The study found high-dominance men respond faster in situations where a choice is needed，regardless of social context. Promptness (敏捷) to respond in high-dominance men was accompanied by a noticeably ________ brain signal. In addition, when the researchers analyzed the EEG (脑电图) images of the high-dominance participants, they identified a higher activity in areas of the brain associated with emotion and behavior，compared to low-dominance participants. amplified This promptness in decision-making can act as a biomarker for social personalities. “Dominance itself depends partly on the ability to make decisions faster than others. This allows the individual to act first in social situations，which might result in an evolutionary advantage，” the team wrote. They now hope to link these findings to roles such as CEOs, and to find out if the same differences happen in female and children. “In the future, it will be important to find out whether even stronger brain signals are observed in particularly dominant individuals, such as CEOs，” said Carmen Sandi of the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne. She added，“It will also be relevant to understand whether these differences in promptness to respond and brain signals are also observed in women that differ in dominance and whether they are already present in children. Our findings may open a new research approach using EEG signatures as a measure for social dominance.” The study involved 240 male students at the University of Lausanne who were sorted into high or low dominance groups by a standard “dominance scoring” questionnaire proved in many former studies. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。试验表明，支配欲强的人之所以往往身居高位，正是在于他们能够快速做出决定，这也是他们能够取得成功的关键。 8．What makes dominant people stand out? A．Their wiser decisions. B．Their kind personalities. C．Their high social status. D．Their rapidity of responding. √ 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Researchers say they are able to make decisions far faster than those with non-dominant personalities.”可知，占支配地位的人之所以出色，是因为他们具有快速反应的能力，能更快地做出决定。 9．Which word can replace the underlined word “amplified” in paragraph 2? A．Affected.　　　　 　 B．Adjusted. C．Enhanced. D．Controlled. √ 解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后一句可知，在支配欲强的人的大脑中，与情感和行为有关的区域更具活性，即他们大脑的信号应该更强。所以画线词的意思是“增强的” 10．What will the researchers use the findings to do? A．Save people's life. B．Check on more people. C．Test the participants' brain. D．Show the effect of dominance. √ 解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中的“They now hope to link these findings to roles such as CEOs, and to find out if the same differences happen in female and children.”可知，研究人员希望这项研究成果能被运用到更多人身上。 11．What can be inferred about the study from the text? A．It used previous research findings. B．It involved some women and children. C．It showed how people became CEOs. D．It corrected people's ideas of dominance. √ 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，这项研究利用了以前的研究发现。 D Failure is an unavoidable part of life. Though science has named some life skills that promise success, we're told over and over again that no great success was ever achieved without failure — or many failed attempts. One of life's most important lessons, therefore, has to be how to handle failure best. But what is the message? For starters, ignore advice from anyone that tells you, “Don't beat yourself up about it，” no matter how well-meaning they are. According to the new research from the University of Kansas, we absolutely should be beating ourselves up when we fail. Marketing professor Noelle Nelson and her team found that the more emotional a person's response is to failure, the more likely they are to achieve better results the next time they deal with a related task. The researchers carried out two experiments in which undergraduate students were required to perform specific tasks. In one experiment, they were asked to search online for a squeezer and report the lowest price they could find with the possibility of winning a $50 cash prize. However, the task was controlled, and all participants were told (by a computer) that the lowest price was $3.27 less than their reported price. Consequently, no participant won the cash prize. When the results were announced, some participants were asked to focus on their emotional response, and others on their cognitive (认知的) response. During the next similar task, participants who focused on their emotional response to failure made more effort than those who focused on a cognitive response. Everybody has their own unique challenges, responsibilities, duties, and projects, but these findings are related to all of us. Your personal failure may be a cake that fails to rise, a presentation that goes wrong, or a deadline that gets missed — it doesn't matter. What matters is how you react to it. Instead of thinking about the failure, let yourself feel bad about it. Then follow this advice on how to bounce back after your failure. 语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章就如何更有成效地应对失败提出了一些建议。 12．What's the relationship between failure and success? A．Failure promises success. B．Failure is the key to success. C．Failure does damage to success. D．Well-handled failure is good for success. √ 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中“One of life's most important lessons, therefore, has to be how to handle failure best.”可知，处理好失败的问题对成功是有好处的。 13．Why does the writer support beating oneself up when failing? A．It's a well-meaning suggestion for failure. B．It's been proved by the study of a university. C．Being emotional is good for one's future success. D．It can make people less emotional about failure. √ 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中“the more emotional a person's response is to failure, the more likely they are to achieve better results the next time they deal with a related task”可知，对失败的反应越强烈，下一次处理相关问题的时候就越能取得较好的结果。 14．What is the purpose of the two experiments? A．To test the participants' abilities to search online. B．To improve the participants' cognitive response. C．To teach the participants to avoid failures. D．To test the benefit of emotional response to failure. √ 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中“During the next similar task, participants who focused on their emotional response to failure made more effort than those who focused on a cognitive response.”可知，这两个实验验证了对失败的情感反应对以后成功的益处。 15．Which can be the best title for the passage? A．Personal Failure Is a Cake That Fails to Appear B．The Most Productive Way to Handle Any Failure C．Different Methods to Change Failure into Success D．The Reason Why Failure Is the Mother of Success √ 解析：标题归纳题。本文就如何更有成效地应对失败提出了一些建议。故B项适合作文章标题。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How long does it take to become an elite (精英) in your field? ____ That's what John Hayes, a cognitive psychology professor at Carnegie Mellon University, wanted to know. 16 For decades, Hayes has been investigating the role of effort, practice and knowledge in top performers. ___ The research focused on people like Mozart and Picasso to determine how long it took them to become world-class at their craft. Let's talk about what Hayes has discovered about world-class-performers.And more importantly, let's discuss how you can use these insights to achieve your goals and become your best. 17 ___ He analyzed thousands of musical pieces produced from 1685 to 1900.The central question that drove his work was, “How long after one becomes interested in music is it that one becomes world-class？” Eventually, Hayes developed a list of 500 pieces of “masterworks” in the field, which were created by a total of 76 composers. 18 Hayes mapped out the timeline of each composer's career. ___ What he discovered was that virtually every single “masterwork” was written after the tenth year of the composer's career.Not a single person produced incredible work without putting in a decade of practice first.Even a genius like Mozart had to work for at least ten years before he produced something that became popular. ___ 19 20 In follow-up studies, Hayes found similar patterns among famous painters and popular poets.These findings have been further confirmed by research from professors like K．Anders Ericsson, who produced research that revealed that you needed to put in “10,000 hours” to become an elite or expert in your field. A．It takes time to achieve your goals. B．And what do people like doing in their spare time? C．He has studied the most talented creators in history. D．Hayes started his research by examining successful composers. E．Professor Hayes began to refer to this period as the “ten years of silence”． F．And what do the successful people do differently than the rest of us? G．And then he calculated how long they had been working before they created their popular works. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了John Hayes教授对于成为顶级精英所需时间的研究。 16．解析：选F　下文“That's what John Hayes, a cognitive psychology professor at Carnegie Mellon University, wanted to know.”说明John Hayes想要知道需要多久能成为所在领域的精英。空处和前文并列提出关于精英的问题，并引出下文。故F项“成功人士与我们其他人有什么不同之处？”符合语境。 17．解析：选C　上文“For decades, Hayes has been investigating the role of effort, practice and knowledge in top performers.”说明Hayes教授多年研究顶尖表现者所付出的努力、练习和知识的作用。故C项“他研究了历史上最有才华的创作者”顺接前文，继续说明他的研究特点或范围，并引出下文。C项中的He指代前文中的“Hayes”，“the most talented creators ”和下文中的“people like Mozart and Picasso”相呼应。 18．解析：选D　下文说明本段主要介绍了John Hayes研究了世界级表演者，以及如何利用这些见解实现目标。故D项“海斯的研究始于考察成功的作曲家”符合语境。该项中的“by examining successful composers”和下文中的“He analyzed thousands of musical pieces”相呼应。 19．解析：选G　上文“Hayes mapped out the timeline of each composer's career.”说明Hayes绘制了每位作曲家的职业生涯时间线。故G项“然后他计算了他们创作出流行作品之前工作了多长时间”顺承上文，进一步描述他之后的分析步骤。G项中的“they”指代前文中的“composers”。 20．解析：选E　上文说明几乎所有“杰作”都是在作曲家职业生涯的第十年后产生的。空处对前面的现象进行总结。故E项“海斯教授开始将这段时期称为‘沉默的十年’”承接上文，符合语境。E项中的“this period”指代前文中的“work for at least ten years before he produced something that became popular”。 第二部分　语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Dennis Hong designs and makes human-like robots.

But the real dig wasn't at all what he had expected.For starters, he wasn't even digging.“No shovels (铲子)，” Dave, the paleontologist (古生物学家) in charge, told them.“Any dinosaur bones buried here should be within a couple of feet of the surface.We don't want to risk hitting around and breaking them.” Then he had handed out ice picks and paint brushes and showed everyone how to chip and brush away sand and dirt, slowly and carefully, a little bit at a time. “The most important thing is knowing where to look，” Dave said.“Some rocks aren't old enough to have dinosaur bones.Other rocks are too old.We've studied this area before and found lots of fossils, so I'm hopeful you'll find some too！” Well, that had been two days ago, and so far the most exciting thing Benny had found was that his front tooth was loose.He wiggled (扭动) it now.If he couldn't find any dinosaur bones, at least he could show his friends back home that he had lost another tooth. Dave sat beside Benny.“How's it going？” he asked. “OK，” Benny said.It didn't seem very nice to say that he was bored.“This is pretty slow.” Dave nodded.“Yep，” he agreed.“It's hard work.Sometimes paleontologists and fossil hunters look for weeks without finding anything.And we hardly ever find a whole skeleton.” He added, “You know, Benny, if you're tired of searching, you can always help someone else on the crew.” Benny looked around the dry, rocky hillside.Dave's assistants were busy taking photographs, drawing pictures, making charts and writing notes.Dave said it was important to take good field notes, to record exactly what you did and where you were when you looked for fossils and facts for truth. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式作答。 Benny thought that he would not give up and keep looking._______ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 　Dave hurried over to look, carefully not to disturb the ground in front of Benny's find._______________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 参考范文： Benny thought that he would not give up and keep looking.After all, he had come a long way and spent so much time and effort on this project.He knew that the dinosaur bones were out there, buried in the ground, waiting to be found.And he was determined to find them.So he continued to probe the ground, looking for any signs of the ancient creatures.When he needed a break, he wiggled his loose tooth.Suddenly, his tooth dropped out of his mouth.As he stared down at the dirt to look for it, he shouted excitedly, “My tooth! My dinosaur tooth! I found a real, live dinosaur tooth！” Dave hurried over to look, carefully not to disturb the ground in front of Benny's find.After examining it, Dave said, “It's a tooth all right！” “What kind is it？” Benny asked curiously.“Is it a tyrannosaur? Apatosaurus? Triceratops？” Dave laughed, but he kept studying the fossil in the ground.“Well, Benny，” he finally said, “I've seen a lot of dinosaur teeth, but this one is different.I think you may have found one we haven't seen before.Good job！” 本课结束 $$
