Have successful people ever felt sad? Do they have any “secrets” to success? The answers to these questions can be found in US President Barack Obama’s “Back to School” speech. Here is an excerpt (摘录) from his speech.
I know that sometimes, you get the sense that you can be rich and successful without any hard work—that your ticket to success is through rapping (饶舌音乐) or basketball or being a TV star, when chances are, you’re not going to be any of those things.
But the truth is, being successful is hard. You won’t love every subject you study. Not all the homework will seem completely important to your life right this minute. And you may not succeed at everything the first time you try.
That’s OK. Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who’ve had the most failures. JK Rowling’s first Harry Potter book was turned down 12 times before it finally came out. Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team, and he lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career. But he once said, “I have failed over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
These people succeeded because they comprehend that you can’t let your failures beat you—you have to let them teach you. You have to let them show you what to do differently next time.
No one’s born being good at things. You become good at things through hard work. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it. I do that every day. Asking for help isn’t a sign of weakness. It’s a sign of strength. It shows you have the courage to admit (承认) when you don’t know something, and to learn something new.
And even when you are struggling (奋斗), even when you are discouraged, and you feel like other people have given up on you—you don’t ever give up on yourself. Because when you give up on yourself, you give up on your country.
36. Who gave the “Back to School” speech?
A. Alexander Graham Bell. B. Barack Obama. C. Michael Jordan. D. JK Rowling.
37. Why does Barack Obama mention JK Rowling and Michael Jordan?
A. To show that failure is the mother of success.
B. To explain that writing and sports are difficult skills.
C. To describe that the two persons were treated unfairly.
D. To compare these two famous persons.
38. Which of the following does the writer probably disagree with?
A. No one can be successful without working hard.
B. Failure can be good if you treat it in the right way.
C. One should try his best to make his dream come true.
D. Those who believe in themselves shouldn’t ask others for help.
39. Which word is close to the underlined word “comprehend”?
A. Understand. B. Repeat. C. Suggest. D. Expect.
40. What is the best title for the text?
A. American People Never Give Up B. Don’t Be Afraid to Ask Questions
C. JK Rowling Achieved Great Success D. Never Giving up Is the Secret to Success

In recent years, plastic pollution has become one of the most serious problems around the world. Many countries have been looking for ways for a better future. On November 7, 2022, China started a “bamboo instead of plastic” act with the International Network for Bamboo and Rattan (INBAR).

Bamboo is a renewable natural resource (资源) of great value. And it can be harvested (收割) in 3 to 5 years. Normally, bamboo can be cut every year and doesn’t have to be planted. Bamboo can be used to make different kinds of products. These products can take the place of plastic products in many fields. Even a new bamboo washing machine has been invented in some poor areas. People living there don’t have electricity or money to buy traditional washing machines. It uses the natural flow of the water as power to run the machine. It’s believed that bamboo is a harmless material. It doesn’t cause any pollution when it has to be thrown away.
China is one of the countries with the richest bamboo resources in the world. The Chinese are pioneers (先锋) in the use of bamboo. Provinces Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan and Guizhou have set up companies to produce and develop bamboo products. What’s more, China is also sharing its technologies and experience to help other countries with rich bamboo resources. It is hoped that countries will work together for green development around the world.

“Please calm down, Madam," the stewardess replied.”The flight is very full today, but I'll tell you what I'll do—-I will go and check to see if we have any free seats in Club(商务舱)or First Class.”
The lady had an unfriendly look at the outraged(被激怒的)black man beside her.
A few minutes later the stewardess returned and said to the lady with a self - satisfied smile, “I'm sorry, Madam, this Economy(经济舱)is full, and Club is also full.However, we do have one seat in First Class.”

At this time, the people around stood up and clapped their hands.The black man walked up to the front of the plane.

Having said that, the stewardess turned to the black man sitting next to the lady, and said, “So if you’d like to get your things, sir, I have a seat ready for you...” 让人坐在这样一个讨厌的人旁边是不合适的。说完,空姐转向坐在女士旁边的那个黑人说:“先生,如果您想拿您的东西,我已经为您准备好了座位……”可知是因为妇女的不礼貌,令人讨厌,最后让黑人去了头等舱,故选C。
【34题详解】

Have successful people ever felt sad? Do they have any “secrets” to success? The answers to these questions can be found in US President Barack Obama’s “Back to School” speech. Here is an excerpt (摘录) from his speech.
I know that sometimes, you get the sense that you can be rich and successful without any hard work—that your ticket to success is through rapping (饶舌音乐) or basketball or being a TV star, when chances are, you’re not going to be any of those things.
But the truth is, being successful is hard. You won’t love every subject you study. Not all the homework will seem completely important to your life right this minute. And you may not succeed at everything the first time you try.
That’s OK. Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who’ve had the most failures. JK Rowling’s first Harry Potter book was turned down 12 times before it finally came out. Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team, and he lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career. But he once said, “I have failed over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
These people succeeded because they comprehend that you can’t let your failures beat you—you have to let them teach you. You have to let them show you what to do differently next time.
No one’s born being good at things. You become good at things through hard work. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it. I do that every day. Asking for help isn’t a sign of weakness. It’s a sign of strength. It shows you have the courage to admit (承认) when you don’t know something, and to learn something new.
And even when you are struggling (奋斗), even when you are discouraged, and you feel like other people have given up on you—you don’t ever give up on yourself. Because when you give up on yourself, you give up on your country.
36. Who gave the “Back to School” speech?
A. Alexander Graham Bell. B. Barack Obama. C. Michael Jordan. D. JK Rowling.
37. Why does Barack Obama mention JK Rowling and Michael Jordan?
A. To show that failure is the mother of success.
B. To explain that writing and sports are difficult skills.
C. To describe that the two persons were treated unfairly.
D. To compare these two famous persons.
38. Which of the following does the writer probably disagree with?
A. No one can be successful without working hard.
B. Failure can be good if you treat it in the right way.
C. One should try his best to make his dream come true.
D. Those who believe in themselves shouldn’t ask others for help.
39. Which word is close to the underlined word “comprehend”?
A. Understand. B. Repeat. C. Suggest. D. Expect.
40. What is the best title for the text?
A. American People Never Give Up B. Don’t Be Afraid to Ask Questions
C. JK Rowling Achieved Great Success D. Never Giving up Is the Secret to Success
【答案】36. B 37. A 38. D 39. A 40. D

词句猜测题。 根据划线词“comprehend”所在的句子“These people succeeded because they comprehend that you can’t let your failures beat you”可知,comprehend的意思是“理解”。A选项“Understand”表示“理解”。故选A。
【40题详解】
最佳标题题。 通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了成功的秘诀在于不放弃,并从失败中学习。因此最佳标题是D选项“永不放弃是成功的秘诀”。故选D。

It’s believed that bamboo is a harmless material. It doesn’t cause any pollution when it has to be thrown away.
China is one of the countries with the richest bamboo resources in the world. The Chinese are pioneers (先锋) in the use of bamboo.
