Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
The parents of a young man with Down Syndrome (唐氏综合症) have made an incredible move to set up his future after he faced constant rejections when looking for work.
After graduation, Anthony, 19yearold, should have faced multiple career choices about which door to open, but when he actually tried those doors, one after the other, it was locked. Danijela and John Vrkic, from Canberra, were genuinely concerned about their son's future. It was rather difficult for people with a disability, especially those with an intellectual disability, to find any type of work. Inspired by their son, they decided to leave their respective careers behind to build a business.
Mrs. Vrkic got to work armed with her traditional family recipe for “krofhe”, or doughnuts (甜甜圈),which dates back over four generations. She tested the market by sharing her homemade krofne at her previous office with colleagues and friends. Fortunately, it proved to be a hit. After four years in business, there are Krofine Canberra popup shops at a number of shopping centres, and an online store is also available.
Today, Krofne is a much loved, disabilityinclusive family business and a social enterprise in Canberra. Employment opportunities for people with special needs have been generated. The specially designed KINECT program has highlighted how important it is for people with a disability to feel valued and included in the community. Mrs. Vrkic is an incredibly passionate advocate for inclusivity. She feels if somebody has a disability, it doesn't necessarily mean that they can't work. What she would like to see is for Australia to be inclusive—that every organisation understands and employs the disabled. That is her goal.
On the International Day of People with Disabilities, Mrs. Vrkic was invited to speak at Parliament House. She said, “We're a very small fish in the sea, if our business can do it, why can't other people?”
【语篇解读】 本文是记叙文。文章讲述了患有唐氏综合症的Anthony求职屡屡遭拒,他的父母为了帮助他,辞职创业,并成立了公司推行包容残疾这一理念。
1.What did the parents do incredibly?
A.They made doughnuts to sell.
B.They raised a child with a disability.
C.They quit their jobs to help their son.
D.They weren't discouraged after losing jobs.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第一段“The parents of a young man with Down Syndrome (唐氏综合症) have made an incredible move to set up his future after he faced constant rejections when looking for work.(一名患有唐氏综合症的年轻人在求职屡遭拒绝后,他的父母为了他的未来做出了不可思议的决定) ”和第二段“Inspired by their son, they decided to leave their respective careers behind to build a business. (受到儿子经历的启示,他们决定辞去各自的事业去创业)”可知,为了帮助儿子,他们做了一件令人难以置信的事,辞去各自的工作去创业。故选C项。
2.Why were Mrs. Vrkic's doughnuts popular?
A.Because she drew the inspiration from her son.
B.Because she followed the recipe passed down in her family.
C.Because she applied the technique learned from her previous job.
D.Because she got assistance from her previous colleagues and friends.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第三段“Mrs. Vrkic got to work armed with her traditional family recipe for “krofhe”, or doughnuts (甜甜圈), which dates back over four generations.(Vrkic夫人开始用她的传统家庭食谱制作甜甜圈,这种食谱可以追溯到四代人以前)”可知,Vrkic夫 人用的是独一无二的四代祖传食谱,这也是她的甜甜圈受欢迎的原因。故选B项。
3.Which of the following words can best describe Mrs. Vrkic?
A.Caring and ambitious.
B.Elegant and determined.
C.Humorous and brave.
D.Passionate and curious.
解析:选A 推理判断题。根据第四段“Mrs. Vrkic is an incredibly passionate advocate for inclusivity. She feels if somebody has a disability, it doesn't necessarily mean that they can't work.(Vrkic夫人是包容性的热情倡导者。她觉得如果一个人有残疾,并不一定意味着他们不能工作) ”可知,Vrkic夫人关爱残疾人,有爱心,再结合“What she would like to see is for Australia to be inclusive—that every organisation understands and employs the disabled. That is her goal.(她希望看到的是澳大利亚的包容性——每个组织都理解并雇佣残疾人。这就是她的目标) ”可知,Vrkic夫人有抱负,有理想,她希望把对残疾的包容这一理念在全澳大利亚推广。故选A项。
4.What can be inferred from Mrs. Vrkic's saying?
A.Her success can be followed.
B.Her business needs to be expanded.

B
Is there a “success personality”—some winning combination of qualities that leads almost essentially to achievement?If so, exactly what is that secret success formula (公式), and can anyone develop it?
At the Gallop Organization we recently focused in depth on success, digging into the attitudes of 1500 brilliant people selected at random (随机) from Who's Who in America. Our research finds out a number of qualities that occur regularly among top achievers. Here is one of the most important, that is, common sense.
Common sense is the most popular quality shared by the top achievers. Seventynine percent award themselves a top score in this quality. And 61 percent say that common sense was very important in contributing to their success.
To most, common sense means the ability to present sound, practical judgments on everyday affairs. To do this, one has to sweep aside extra ideas and get right to the heart of what matters. A Texas oil and gas businessman puts it this way: “The key ability for success is simplifying. In conduction of meeting and dealing with industry, reducing a complex problem to the simplest term is highly important.”
Is common sense a quality a person is born with, or can you do something to increase it? The oil man's answer is that common sense can definitely be developed. He attributes (归咎) his to learning how to debate in school. Another way to increase your store of common sense is to observe it in others, learning from their and your own mistakes.
Besides common sense, there are many other factors that influence success: knowing your field, selfreliance, intelligence, the ability to get things done, leadership, creativity, relationships with others, and of course, luck. But common sense stands out. If you develop these qualities, you'll succeed. And you might even find yourself listed in Who's Who someday.
【语篇解读】 这是一篇议论文。研究发现,成功最重要的人格是常识。还有许多其他因素会影响成功,但最突出的是常识。
5.Roughly how many people in the survey listed common sense as the most important quality?
A.80. B.60.
C.1 200. D.900.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第二段At the Gallop Organization we recently focused in depth on success, digging into the attitudes of 1 500 brilliant people selected at random (随机) from Who's Who in America.(在Gallop组织,我们最近对成功进行了深入研究,研究了1 500名从美国名人中随机挑选出来的杰出人士的态度)和第三段中Seventynine percent award themselves a top score in this quality. 79%的人认为自己在这方面得分最高。由1 500*79%=1 185,可知大概有1 200人在调查中把常识列为最重要的品质。故选C项。
6.In paragraph 4 the example of the oil and gas businessman is used to prove________.
A.common sense can be judged
B.common sense means simplifying
C.common sense can be developed
D.common sense is quite complex
解析:选B 推理判断题。根据第四段中A Texas oil and gas businessman puts it this way: “The key ability for success is simplifying. In conduction of meeting and dealing with industry, reducing a complex problem to the simplest term is highly important.” 一位德克萨斯州的石油和天然气商人这样说:“成功的关键能力是简化。在召开会议和处理工业问题时,将复杂问题简化为最简单的术语是非常重要的。”可知用一位石油和天然气商人的例子来证明常识意味着简化。故选B项。
7.What do we know about common sense?
A.It's rooted in common people.
B.It is a side effect of mistakes.
C.It is taught by our parents.
D.It can be trained by ourselves.
解析:选D 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中Another way to increase your store of common sense is to observe it in others, learning from their and your own mistakes. 另一种增加你常识储备的方法是观察别人,从他们和你自己的错误中学习。可知常识可以由我们自己训练。故选D项。
8.What is the best title of the passage?
A.Common Sense
B.The Success Personality
C.Personal Qualities
D.A Popular Formula
解析:选B 主旨大意题。根据第一段中Is there a “success personality”—some winning combination of qualities that leads almost essentially to achievement 是否存在一种“成功品质”——某种成功的品质组合,几乎可以从本质上导致成功?第二段中Our research finds out a number of qualities that occur regularly among top achievers. Here is one of the most important, that is, common sense. 我们的研究发现了一些在顶级成功者中经常出现的品质。这是最重要的一点,也就是常识。再通读全文,可知本文主要讲述了成功最重要的人格是什么,因此选项B“成功的人格”符合题意。故选B项。
