10、满分30分）第一节（共10小题：每小题2分，满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。 (A)One day, when I was working as a psychologist in England，an adolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him

11、 to me. This boy has lost his family, he wrote. He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and Im very worried about him. Can you help?”I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesnt have the answer to, and which no words can

12、 describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.The first two times we met, David didnt say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the childrens drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess

13、 with me every Wednesday afternoon一in complete silence and without looking at me. Its not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chan

14、ce to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me?Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with, I thought. Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.”Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly.Its your turn, he said.

15、After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life.Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that on

16、e一without any words一can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens. 21. When he first met the author, David .A. looked a little nervous B. walked energetically C. felt a little excitedD. showed up with his teacher22. As a psych

17、ologist, the author . A. was able to describe Davids problemB. was skeptical about psychologyC. was ready to listen to DavidD. was sure of handling Davids problem23. David enjoyed being with the author because he_.A. wanted to ask the author for adviceB. beat the author many times in the chess gameC

18、. liked the childrens drawings in the officeD. need to share sorrow with the author(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. Im not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances

19、dont come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and thats 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

20、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, itll require even more time, time that most people wont put in.This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you dont

21、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

22、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 theres a huge chance that youre 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 ov

23、er a long period of time. If youre not willing to put in the time and work, dont expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work wont 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. 24. Paragra

24、ph 1 mainly talks about _.A. the standards of successB. the meaning of successC. the reasons for successD. the importance of success25. In Paragraph 2, the underlined word “that” refers to _.A. setting a practical goalB. being good at somethingC. putting in more timeD. succeeding in life26. What is

25、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.(C) “People are ruder today because they are rushed and more time poor than ever before,”

26、says Patsy Rowe, “ Manners have fallen off the radar(雷达).” Due to our strong attraction to electronic equipment it is a wonder more people dont wake up each morning and greet the singing birds with a complaint（抱怨）about the noise. Here are some examples of rudeness. Some people prefer to do almost ev

27、erything over the Internet. To them, dealing with an actual human is like an evolutionary step backward. It feels very slow because humans dont work at 4G speeds. When you have dinner with friends, you will often notice someone paying more attention to his mobile phone. We have programmed ourselves

28、to think that every new message brings life-changing news, so taking calls and checking our texts are more important than talking to the people we are with. What is worse, some people even tend to send anonymous（匿名的） rude messages by email. However, rudeness is never acceptable. Dont assume it is OK

29、 to be rude if the person youre in touch with wont recognize you. If you have something awful to say, have the courage to face the person and say it, write a letter or email and sign it, or forget it. Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting.We shouldnt blame technology for ou

30、r shortcomings. Technology is here to help us, but we should not allow it to take over our lives. An important step is acknowledging our shortcomings. People spend a lot of time pointing out bad manners but it would be even more helpful if wed publicly acknowledge good manners when we see them. 27.

31、What can be infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1?A. People can tell good from bad behavior.B. Radar is able to observe human behavior.C. Radar can be used to predict human behavior.D.
