A 教材同步单元练习 一、阅读理解 Passage 1 In the quest for success,the role of deliberate practice has been increasingly emphasized by psychologists.This concept,popularized by Anders Ericsson,suggests that not all practice is created equal.The key to exceptional performance lies not in the sheer number of hours spent on an activity, but in the quality of those hours.Deliberate practice is a highly structured activity,explicitly aimed at improving performance.It requires full concentration,often involves tasks beyond one's current level of competence,and provides immediate feedback. A common misconception is that successful people simply have a natural talent or "gift".However, Ericsson's research,which studied elite performers across various fields like music,chess,and sports, found that innate ability plays a less significant role than previously thought.Instead,the accumulation of thousands of hours of deliberate practice is what separates the best from the rest.For instance,expert violinists in Berlin had accumulated an average of 10,000 hours of practice by the age of 20,while less accomplished violinists had only practiced around 4,000 hours.This "10,000-hour rule"was later popularized by Malcolm Gladwell in his book Outliers. The implications of this are profound.It means that success is not a matter of being born with a special gift but is largely the result of sustained effort and strategic learning.However,the path is not easy. Deliberate practice is inherently not enjoyable.It is a lonely,cognitively demanding,and often fiustrating process.It requires a tremendous amount of willpower to push through plateaus and failures. The real story of success,therefore,is not about sudden flashes of inspiration,but about the discipline of showing up day after day,continuously challenging oneself,and leamning from mistakes.As one researcher put it,"The people who achieve greatness are the ones who are willing to do the work that othe1 s are not."” ()1.What is the main idea of the passage? A.Natural talent is the most important factor for success. B.Success is largely determined by the quality of practice,not just hours. C.Practicing for 10,000 hours guarantees success in any field. D.Deliberate practice is enjoyable and easy to maintain. ()2.The word "accumulation"in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to. A.collection B.avoidance C.demonstration D.separation ()3.What can be inferred from Ericsson's research on Berlin violinists? A.The most successful violinists practiced more efficiently. B.All violinists had a natural talent for music. C.The less accomplished violinists had wasted their time. D.The amount of practice directly correlated with performance level. ()4.According to the passage,why is the path of deliberate practice described as "not easy"? A.It requires expensive equipment and teachers B.It is a mentally taxing and often unpleasant process. C.It can lead to physical injuries. D.It is a lonely process that alienates friends. ()5.What does the researcher's statement at the end of the passage imply? A.Successful people are naturally more hardworking. B.The willingness to engage in difficult work is a key to success. C.Greatness is achieved by avoiding challenges. D.Only a few people are capable of doing the necessary work. Passage 2 How we frame our failures can profoundly influence our future success.Psychologist Carol Dweck has identified two fundamental mindsets:the fixed mindset and the growth mindset.Individuals with a fixed mindset believe that their intelligence,abilities,and talents are static traits.They see failure as a direct reflection of their inherent worth.For them,if you fail at something,it means you are not smait or talented enough.Consequently,they tend to avoid challenges that might expose their weaknesses, give up easily when faced with obstacles,and feel threatened by the success of others. In stark contrast,those with a growth mindset see intelligence and ability as malleable qualities that can be developed through dedication and hard work.Failure,in this view,is not a judgment of one's character but a valuable signal of where improvement is needed.It is a springboard for growth.When someone with a growth mindset encounters a setback,they ask,"What can I leamn from this?"or "What strategy can I try next?"This perspective fuels resilience,as they are more likely to persevere through challenges,embrace learning opportunities,and find inspiration in the success of peers. The story of many successful entrepreneurs exemplifies the power of a growth mindset.They didn't achieve success in a straight line.Instead,they experienced multiple failures and bankruptcies.What set them apart was their ability to reframe these failures.They didn't see their failed business as a testament to their incompetence but as a data point that provided crucial lessons.They analyzed what went wrong,adapted their approach,and tried again.This refusal to be crippled by failure is a hallmark of the journey to success.While a fixed mindset can drag you down into a depression of self-doubt,a growth mindset fuels the relentless pursuit of improvement,demonstrating that success is not about being flawless but about the continuous process of learning. ()1.According to Dweck,how do people with a fixed mindset view failure? A.As a necessary step for leamning. B.As a reflection of their own limited abilities. C.As an opportunity to develop new strategies. D.As an external factor that is out of their control. ()2.The word "malleable"in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to. A.fixed B.hidden C.flexible D.valuable ()3.What is a key difference between the two mindsets in terms of reaction to challenges? A.Fixed mindsets embrace challenges;growth mindsets avoid them B.Fixed mindsets give up easily;growth mindsets persevere. C.Both mindsets view challenges as threats. D.Both mindsets view challenges as opportunities. ()4.Why are examples of successful entrepreneurs used in the passage? A.To show that business success is random. B.To prove that a growth mindset can be cultivated. C.To illustrate how failure can be a learning tool. D.To argue that intelligence is the key to success. ()5.What can be inferred about the relationship between mindset and depression,as suggested in the final paragraph? A.A growth mindset can help prevent depression by reframing failure. B.A fixed mindset always leads to depression. C.Depression is unrelated to how one views failure. D.Therapy is the only cure for depression caused by failure. 二、完形填空 Success is often portrayed as a straight line to the top,but the reality is far more complex.I still remember the day I(1) to start my own online business.I was bursting with ideas and confidence,convinced I would make a huge(2) within months.The initial weeks were a (3) of activity.I spent countless hours building a website and marketing my products.However, the results were (4) Sales were almost non-existent.The online market was far more competitive than I had(5) The feeling of failure was a heavy weight.I fell into a state of mild (6),questioning my abilities and my decision.I felt(7) for giving up my stable job.For a while,the thought of even looking at my website was a (8).I was tempted to drag my feet,to just let the whole thing fade away.But then,I remembered the stories of successful people I had read about.They hadn't (9) ovemight.Their paths were littered with failures and setbacks.The only difference was their perspective.They didn't see failure as a(10)end.

Edison held over 1,000 patents in his name,covering innovations from the phonograph to motion picture cameras.He was a relentless worker,often sleeping only a few hours a night.This immense effort was diiven by a profound belief that failure was not a crippling event but a necessary stepping stone.He famously remarked,"I have not failed.I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." This mindset allowed him to view each setback not as a verdict on his abilities,but as a valuable piece of data.He saw obstacles not as blocks,but as opportunities to leamn and refine his approach.His story teaches us that the path to success is rarely a straight line.It is a path paved with persistence,resilience, and a fundamental belief in the process of learning from one's mistakes. 1.What is the main purpose of this passage? 2.According to the passage,what was Edison's attitude towards his many failed experiments? 3.What does the quote "I have not failed.I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work."suggest about Edison's mindset? 4.The author mentions that Edison's journey was an "arduous process".What does this phrase mean in the context of the passage? 5.How does Edison's story connect to the main idea of "The Story of Success"as discussed in the unit? 四、短文填空 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Success is not a single event but a process.Many people,when faced with a setback,suffer from a sense of (1)They allow their failures to drag them down,feeling that their efforts are in vain. This pessimistic view can(2)their motivation and prevent them from moving (3) However,true success often requires a different(4)to failure. A key factor is the ability to analyze what went wrong to a certain (5)Instead of being overwhelmed by negative emotions,successful people view their mistakes as learning opportunities. They understand that making a(6)from their efforts might not be immediate.They are willing to experiment,knowing that every "failed"attempt provides valuable data.It is(7) to give up after the first sign of trouble.The most inspiring stories of success are often those where individuals persisted through repeated failures.This(8)is not about stubborness;its about having the wisdom to adapt.Whether one is an (9) _entrepreneur or a local artist,the joumey is similar.The (10) hand in the game of life often goes to those who are not afraid to stumble, learn,and get back up again. 2 3. 4 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 五、写作 题目：假设你是李华，你的英国笔友Cs来信向你倾诉，他最近在数学学习上遇到了很大的困 难，虽然很努力但成绩依然不理想，这让他感到非常沮丧，甚至开始怀疑自己的能力。请你根 据本单元“成功的故事”这一话题，给他写一封回信，内容包括： 1.表示理解与安慰； 2.分享你对“成功”的看法（如：成功并非一蹴而就，失败是学习的机会等）： 3.给予具体的建议（如：调整心态、改变学习方法、向老师求助等）。 注意： 1.词数100左右： 2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯： 3.开头和结尾已为你写好，不计入总词数。 Dear Chris, I'm sorry to hear that you're having a hard time with your math studies.
