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. I’m not going to say luck,talent,and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s 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 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,it’ll require even more time,time that most people won’t put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t 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’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 there’s a huge chance that you’re 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 over a long period of time.If you’re not willing to put in the time and work,don’t expect to receive any rewards.Consistent, hard work won’t 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.
1.Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ________.
A．the reasons for success B．the meaning of success
C．the standards of success D．the importance of success
2.In Paragraph 2,the underlined word that refers to ______.

3.Successful people suggest doing what one loves because ______.
A．work makes one feel pain B．one tends to enjoy his work
C．one gives up his work easily D．it takes a lot of time to succeed
4.What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A．Successful people like to show their great skills.
B．People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.
C．People need to achieve success at the cost of life.
D．It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.
5.What is the main theme of the passage?

閱讀下面短文并回答問題，然后將答案寫到答題卡相應的位置上（請注意問題后的詞數(shù)要求）。
[1]It's safe, it's simple, and it works: Drinking right amounts of water really can help you lose weight, new research shows.
[2]In what researchers claim is the first-ever trial of the effect of water consumption on weight loss, scientists from Virginia Tech found that dieters who started each meal with two glasses of water lost nearly five pounds more, on average, than dieters who did not, over the course of 12 weeks. There's no shortage of clear evidence about how water might work to control your appetite (食欲). It ________________ so you don't eat so much; it keeps down your thirst so that you don't turn to calorie－rich sodas or juices. But until now, the researchers say, there has been no true evidence that water's appetite-controlling benefits ever translate into actual weight loss. Now there is. In the 12-week study period, dieters instructed to drink water with every meal lost an average of 15.5 pounds; dieters given no instructions lost, on average, just 11 pounds.
[3]Perhaps the most surprising thing about the finding is how little we still know about healthy water consumption in general. In fact, although doctors and public health authorities regularly remind us to drink more water, very few studies give any insight into what our ideal quantity may be.
[4]The new results today suggest that many people could indeed stand to drink a little more water than they do. But if you're looking to lose weight, be aware that it is actually possible to drink too much water, and you probably won't help matters any by drinking too much water at a time. In extreme cases, it can even be deadly. A couple of glasses with each meal, however, should be no problem at all for a healthy person.
1.What is the main idea of the text？(no more than 8 words)
________________________________________________________________
2.Complete the following statement with proper words.(no more than 2 words)
Enough obvious evidence _______ how your appetite might be under the control of water.
________________________________________________________________
3.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper words.(no more than 3 words)
________________________________________________________________
4.Why should we avoid drinking too much water at a time？(no more than 6 words)
________________________________________________________________
5.What does the word "it" (Line 1, Paragraph 1) probably refer to？(no more than 6 words)

If you want to teach your children how to say sorry, you must be good at saying it yourself, especially to your own children. But how you say it can be quite tricky.
If you say to your children "I'm sorry I got angry with you, but...", what follows that "but" can make the apology ineffective:"I had a bad day" or "your noise was giving me a headache" leaves the person who has been injured feeling that he should be apologizing for his bad behavior in expecting an apology.
Another means by which peaple appear to apologize without actually doing so is to say "I'm sorry you're upset"; this suggests that you are somehow at fault for allowing yourself to get upset by what the other person has done.
Then there is the general, all-covering apology, which avoids the necessity of identifying a specific act that is particularly hurtful or insulting, and which the person who is apologizing should promise never to do again. Saying "I'm useless as a parent" does not commit a person to any specific improvement.
These pseudo-apologies(假道歉) are used by people who believe saying sorry shows weakness. Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefore not take these pseudo-apologies.
But even when presented with examples of real apology, childfen still need help to become aware of the complexities of saying sorry. A three-year-old might need help in un- derstanding that other children feel pain just as he does, and that hitting a playmate over the head with a heavy toy requires an apology. A six-year-old might need reminding that spoiling other children's expectations can require an apology. A 12-year-old might need to be shown that destroying the biscuit tin without asking permission is acceptable, but that
borrowing a parent's clothes without permission is not.
1.If a mother adds "but" to an apology, ________.
A．the child may find the apology easier to accept
B．the child may feel that he owes her an apology
C． she promises never to do it again
D．she does not realize that the child has been hurt
2.According to the author, saying "I am sorry you are upset" most probably means “_______”
A．You have good reason to get upset
B．I apologize for hurting your feelings
C．I am at fault for making you upset
D．I am aware you are upset, but I am not to blame
3.It is not advisable to use the general, all-covering apology because _______.
A． it is not clear and ineffective
B． it is hurtful and insulting
C． it may make the other person feel faulty
D．it gets one into the habit of making empty promises .
4.We learn from the last paragraph that in teaching children to say sorry_______
A．the complexities involved should be ignored
B．parents need to set them a good example
C．their ages should be taken into account
D．parents should be patient and tolerant
5.It can be inferred from the passage that apologizing properly is________.
A．a(chǎn) sign of social,progress
B．not as simple as it seems
C．not necessary among family members.
D．a(chǎn) social issue calling for immediate attention

Lots of folks don't think about what they eat over the holiday season until January, when they stare sadly at the number on the scale and then hurry off to hit the gym, join Weight Watchers or pick up the latest diet book.
It doesn't have to be that way. Health experts say you can still enjoy the holidays.
"It's OK to indulge（沉溺）, but it doesn't mean you have to gain weight," said Karen Ansel, a New York-based registered dietitian and a spokeswoman for the American Dietetic Association (ADA). Jessica Crandall, a registered dietitian from Denver who's also an ADA spokeswoman, added that gaining weight during the holidays and then working hard to lose it again is not good for a person's body.
For starters, people interested in maintaining their weight during the holidays should keep eating on a regular schedule, the two dietitians said. Research has shown that people who skip meals -- particularly breakfast -- end up eating more throughout the day. "Try and stick to consistent meal times so you can avoid being overly hungry," Crandall said. "When you're overly hungry, you can make some bad decisions regarding what you eat. Don't starve yourself during the day waiting for that party at night -- because you'll eat too much or overeat."
Ansel suggests that you think now about the foods you really enjoy and plan to focus on those while eating less of more common fare.
Be careful, too, about alcohol intake, for a couple of reasons. Alcoholic drinks, particularly the fancy ones handed out at holiday time, tend to come loaded with calories. "It's usually what you're adding to a drink that contains the calories," Crandall said. Also, if you're drunk, you might forget to watch what you're eating. "It totally lowers your inhibitions（壓抑）," Ansel said.
Other holiday eating tips, suggested by Crandall and Ansel, include:
?Eat lots of vegetables, and eat them first before moving on to the other items on your plate.
?Recognize that many holiday extras, like cheese or cranberry sauce, come loaded with calories. "If those aren't your favorite foods, don't put them on your plate," Crandall said.
?If your favorite food has a lot of calories, be sure to minimize your portion. "Two bites cure the craving," Crandall said. "After that, you're just really feeding your old habits.
?After a big holiday meal, don't sink into a chair or couch. Go for a walk outdoors or participate in some other activities that help burn off some of the calories you've just eaten.
1.Both Karen Ansel and Jessica Crandall ________.
A．think highly of the latest popular diet book
B．like going to the gym often
C．think trying to lose weight isn’t good for a person’s body
D．a(chǎn)re registered dietitians and work for ADA
2.Ansel asks people wishing to keep slim not to skip meals because _________.
A．it will do harm to their stomachs.
B．being overly hungry will make them feel not well
C．it may make them eat more
D．it might let them make bad decisions on important occasion
3.Why does Crandall advise people wanting to lose weight not to drink wine?
A．Because if they’re drunk, they can watch what they eat.
B．Because it will make it hard for their body to burn calories.
C．Because wine itself contains many calories.
D．Because it will make them feel more stressed.
4.Which of the following is the proper way to keep slim according to the passage?
A．Eating more vegetables than rice and other food.
B．Eating more cheese or cranberry sauce.
C．Never eat food with a lot of calories.
D．Sitting less and walking more after meals.
5.The passage mainly talks about __________.
A．some advice on holiday eating B．how to keep slim
C．the problems of fat people D．what to do in holidays
