_________________________________________________________________________________________ Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)

For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.

Eight Things Successful People Do Differently

Why have you been so successful in reaching some of your goals, but not others? If you aren’t sure, you are far from alone in your confusion. It turns out that even brilliant, highly accomplished people are pretty awful when it comes to understanding why they succeed or fail. The intuitive answer — that you are born predisposed to certain talents and lacking in others —is really just one small piece of the puzzle. In fact, decades of research on achievement suggests that successful people reach their goals not simply because of who they are, but more often because of what they do.

Get specific

When you set yourself a goal, try to be as specific as possible. “Lose 5 pounds” is a better goal than “lose some weight”. Knowing exactly what you want to achieve keeps you motivated until you get there. Also, think about the specific actions that need to be taken to reach your goal. Just promising you’ll “eat less” or “sleep more” is too v ague —be clear and precise. “I’ll be in bed by 10pm on weeknights” leaves no room for doubt about what you need to do, and whether or not you’ve actually done it.

Seize the moment to act on your goals

Given how busy most of us are, and how many goals we are juggling (同时做) at once, it’s not surprising that we routinely miss opportunities to act on a goal because we simply fail to notice them. Did you really have no time to work out today? Achieving your goal means grabbing hold of these opportunities before they slip through your fingers.

To seize the moment, decide when and where you will take each action you want to take, in advance. Again, be as specific as possible. Studies show that this kind of planning will help your brain to detect and seize the opportunity when it arises, increasing your chances of success by roughly 300%.

Know exactly how far you have left to go

Achieving any goal also requires honest and regular monitoring of your progress — if not by others, then by you yourself. If you don’t know how well you are doing, you can’t adjust your behavior or your strategies accordingly. Check your progress frequently — weekly, or even daily, depending on the goal.

Be a realistic optimist

When you are setting a goal, by all means engage in lots of positive thinking about how likely you are to achieve it. Believing in your ability to succeed is enormously helpful for creating and sustaining your motivation. But whatever you do, don’t underestimate how difficult it will be to reach your goal. Most goals worth achieving require time, planning, effort, and persistence. Studies show that thinking things will come to you easily and effortlessly leaves you ill-prepared for the journey ahead, and significantly increases the odds of failure.

Focus on getting better, rather than being good

Many of us believe that our intelligence, our personality, and our physical aptitudes (才能) are fixed — that no

matter what we do, we won’t improve. As a result, we focus on goals that are all about proving ourselves, rather than developing and acquiring new skills.

Fortunately, decades of research suggest that the belief in fixed ability is completely wrong — abilities of all kinds are profoundly malleable (可改变的). Embracing the fact that you can change will allow you to make better choices, and reach your fullest potential. People whose goals are about getting better, rather than being good, take difficulty in stride, and appreciate the journey as much as the destination.

Have grit (毅力)

Studies show that gritty people obtain more education in their lifetime, and earn higher college GPAs (grade point average). Grit predicts which cadets (军校学员) will stick out their first difficult year at West Point.

The good news is, if you aren’t particularly gritty now, there is something you can d o about it. People who lack grit more often than not believe that they just don’t have the innate abilities successful people have — they are wrong. As I mentioned earlier, effort, planning, persistence, and good strategies are what it really takes to succeed. Embracing this knowledge will not only help you see yourself and your goals more accurately, but also do wonders for your grit.

Build your willpower muscle

Your self-control “muscle” is just like the other muscles in your body —when it doesn’t get mu ch exercise, it becomes weaker over time. But when you give it regular workouts by putting it to good use, it will grow stronger and stronger, and be better able to help you successfully reach your goals.

To build willpower, take on a challenge that requir es you to do something you’d honestly rather not do. When you find yourself wanting to give in, give up, or just not bother —don’t. Start with just one activity, and make a plan for how you will deal with troubles when they occur (“If I have a desire for a snack, I will eat one piece of fresh fruit.”) It will be hard in the beginning, but it will get easier, and that’s the whole point. As your strength grows, you can take on more challenges and step-up your self-control workout.

Focus on what you will do, not what you won’t do

Do you want to successfully lose weight, quit smoking, or put a lid on your bad temper? Then plan how you will replace bad habits with good ones, rather than focusing only on the bad habits themselves. Research on thought suppression (压制) (e.g., “Don’t think about white bears!”) has shown that trying to avoid a thought makes it even more active in your mind. The same holds true when it comes to behavior — by trying not to engage in a bad habit, our habits get strengthened rather than broken.

If you want to change your ways, ask yourself, ‘What will I do instead?’ For example, if you are trying to gain control of your temper and stop flying off the handle, you might make a plan like “If I am starting to feel angry, then I will take three deep breaths to calm down.” By using deep breathing as a replacement for giving in to your anger, your bad habit will get worn away over time until it disappears completely.

Part IV Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes) Section A

Directions:In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.

Questions 47 to 56 are based on the following passage.

Advice to “sleep on it” could be well founded, scientists say. After a good night’s sleep, a problem

that seemed insurmountable(不能克服的) the night before can often appear more 47 , although the evidence until now has been anecdotal (轶事的).

But researchers at the University of Luebek in Germany have designed an experiment that shows a good night’s sleep can 48 insight and problem-solving. Dr. Jan Born, a neuroscientist at the university, and his team taught volunteers two simple rules to help them 49 a string of numbers into a new order. There was also a third, 50 rule, which could help them increase their speed in solving the problem. The researchers divided the volunteers into two groups: half were allowed to sleep after the training while the 51 were forced to stay awake. They noticed that the group that had slept after the training were twice as 52 to figure out the third rule as the other group.

“You have a memory representation in your brain of the problem you want to solve, and then you sleep. Sleep can act on the problem,” Born said in a telep hone interview. But he also admitted that how restructuring of memories occurs or what governs it is still 53 .

Other scientists say the 54 evidence supports the anecdotal suggestions that sleep can stimulate creative thinking.

Although the role of sleep in human creativity will 55 be a mystery, the research gives people good reason to 56 respect their periods of sleep.

Section B

Directions:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.

Passage One

Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.

Many of us sit in front of a computer for eight hours a day, and then go home and head for the couch to surf the Web or watch television, exchanging one seat and screen for another. Even if we try to squeeze in an hour at the gym, is it enough to counteract (抵消) all that motionless sitting?

A mounting body of evidence suggests not.

Increasingly, research is focusing not on how much exercise people get, but how much of their time is spent in sedentary (久坐的) activity, and the harm that does.

The latest findings, published this week in The Journal of the American College of Cardiology, indicate that the amount of leisure time spent sitting in front of a screen can have such an overwhelming, seemingly irreparable (无法弥补的) impact on one’s health that physical activity doesn’t produce much benefit.

The study followed 4,512 middle-aged Scottish men for a little more than four years on average. It found that those who said they spent two or more leisure hours a day sitting in front of a screen were at double the risk of a heart attack or other heart events compared with those who watched less. Those who spent four or more hours of recreational time in front of a screen were 50 percent more likely to die of any cause. It didn’t matter whether the men were phy sically active for several hours a week —exercise didn’t reduce the risk associated with the high amount of sedentary screen time.

The study is not the first to suggest that sedentary activities like television viewing may be harmful. A 2009 study reported that young children who watch one and a half to five and a half hours of TV a day have higher blood pressure readings than those who watch less than half an hour, even if they are thin and physically active.

Recreational screen time has an “independent, injurious relationship” with heart and the blood vessels events and death of all causes, the paper concluded, possibly because it induces metabolic (新陈代谢) changes.

The study focused on recreational screen time because it’s the easiest to reduce, Dr. Stamat akis said. But he encouraged employees who work at computers all day to get up and take breaks and short walks periodically.

57. According to the passage, more and more evidence proves that ______.

A) people doing regular exercises after work tend to enjoy good health

B) people nowadays seem to spend excessive time seated at home

C) the time people spend watching TV is increasing dramatically

D) physical activities don’t reduce the bad effect of long time’s sitting

58. What do we learn from the study published in The Journal of the American College of Cardiology?

A) The more people watch TV, the healthier they will become.

B) The amount of exercises people get should be taken seriously.

C) The harm done by sedentary activities seems impossible to repair.

D) Exercise can make up for damage caused by high amount of sitting time.

59. A 2009 study supported the idea that ______.

A) physical inactivity may do harm to people’s health

B) the length of time spent in taking exercises do matter

C) television viewers are more likely to die of heart diseases

D) thin teenagers are immune to disease caused by watching TV

60. Why leisure time spent in front of the screen is related to heart diseases?

A) Some content of the TV programs makes the heart beat faster.

B) It causes chemical processes in people’s body to change.

C) Extended sitting slows circulating blood to the heart.

D) Radiation from the screen causes physical harm to the heart.

61. Dr. Stamatakis suggested people who rely on computers to work ______.

A) secretly combine business with leisure

B) quit their current jobs as soon as possible

C) take breaks from the screen at regular intervals of time

D) get up early so as to take regular exercises in the morning

Passage Two

Questions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.

If two scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory are correct, people will still be driving gasoline-powered cars 50 years from now, giving out heat-trapping carbon dioxide into the atmosphere — and yet that carbon dioxide will not contribute to global warming.

The scientists, F. Jeffrey Martin and William L. Kubic Jr., are proposing a concept, which they have named Green Freedom, for removing carbon dioxide from the air and turning it back into gasoline.

The idea is simple. Air would be blown over a liquid solution which would absorb the carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide would then be extracted (提取) and subjected to chemical reactions that would turn it into fuel.

Although they have not yet built a synthetic fuel factory, or even a small prototype (原型), the scientists

say it is all based on existing technology.

“Everything in the concept has been built, is operating or has a close cousin that is operating,” Dr. Martin said.

The Los Alamos proposal does not violate any laws of physics, and other scientists have independently suggested similar ideas.

In the efforts to reduce humanity’s emissions of carbon dioxide, three solutions have been offered: hydrogen(氢)-powered fuel cells, electric cars and biofuels. Biofuels are gasoline substitutes produced from plants like corn or sugar cane. Plants absorb carbon dioxide as they grow, but growing crops for fuel takes up wide strips of land.

Hydrogen-powered cars emit no carbon dioxide, but producing hydrogen requires copious (大量的) energy, and if that energy comes from coal-fired power plants, then the problem has not been solved.

Electric cars also push the carbon dioxide problem to the power plant. And electric cars have typically been limited to a range of tens of miles as opposed to the hundreds of miles that can be driven on a tank of gas.

Gasoline, it turns out, is an almost ideal fuel (except that it produces CO2). If it can be made out of carbon dioxide in the air, the Los Alamos concept may mean there is little reason to switch, after all.

“It’s definitely worth pursuing,” said Martin I. Hoffert, a professor of physics at New York University. Other scientists also said the proposal looked promising but could not evaluate it fully because the details had not been published.

62. What is most remarkable about the proposal made by the two scientists?

A) It is given a special name. B) No law of physics is violated.

C) It is based on existing technology. D) CO2 can be converted into fuel.

63. What does the author say about biofuels?

A) They are considered as ideal substitutes for fossil fuels.

B) It is a great waste to use so many plants to produce fuels.

C) They help ease global warming but will use a large area of land.

D) Cars using biofuels have a longer range than cars running on gas.

64. The biggest problem with hydrogen-powered cars is that ______.

A) there is no cheap source of hydrogen energy

B) they may still be a cause of global warming

C) safety problems might occur in hydrogen production

D) they are not suitable for long-distance travel

65. What will happen if what is proposed by the two scientists becomes true?

A) There will be no need for gasoline substitutes.

B) Air pollution will become a thing of the past.

C) People will be able to use much cheaper energy.

D) There will be no more gasoline-powered vehicles.

66. What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage?

A) To compare different energy sources.

B) To introduce a new concept of zero carbon gasoline.

C) To explain why gasoline is important to us.

D) To discus how to solve the problem of global warming.

Part V Cloze (15 minutes)

Directions:There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D) on the right side of the paper. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.

Another person’s enthusiasm was what set me

moving toward the success I have achieved. That person

was my stepmother.

I was nine years old when she entered our home in

rural Virginia. My father 67 me to her with these

words: “I would like you to meet the fellow who is 68 for being the worst boy in this county and will probably start throwing rocks at you no 69 than tomorrow morning.”

My stepmother walked over to me, 70 my head slightly upward, and looked me right in the eye. Then she looked at my father and replied, “You are 71 . This

is not the worst boy at all, 72 the smartest one who hasn’t yet found an outlet(释放的途径) for his enthusiasm.”67. A) rushed B) sent

C) carried D) introduced

68. A) distinguished B) favored

C) mistaken D) rewarded

69. A) sooner B) later

C) longer D) earlier

70. A) dragged B) shook

C) raised D) bent

71. A) perfect B) right

C) wrong D) impolite

72. A) but B) so

C) and D) or

That statement began a(n) 73 between us. No one had ever called me smart. My family and neighbors had built me up in my 74 as a bad boy. My stepmother changed all that.

She changed many things. She 75 my father to go to a dental school, from which he graduated with honors. She moved our family into the county seat, where my father’s career could be more 76 and my

brother and I could be better 77 .

When I turned fourteen, she bought me a secondhand 78 and told me that she believed that I could become a writer. I knew her enthusiasm, I 79 it，and I saw how it had improved our lives. I accepted her 80 and began to write for local newspapers. I was

doing the same kind of 81 that great day I went to interview Andrew Carnegie and received the task which became my life’s work later. I wasn’t the 82

beneficiary (受益者). My father became the 83 man in town. My brother and stepbrothers became a physician, a dentist, a lawyer, and a college president.

What power 84 has! When that power is released

to support the certainty of one’s purpose and is 85 strengthened by faith, it becomes an irresistible (不可抗拒的) force which poverty and temporary defeat can never 86 .

You can communicate that power to anyone who needs it. This is probably the greatest work you can do with your enthusiasm. 73. A) agreement B) friendship

C) gap D) relationship

74. A) opinion B) image

C) expectation D) mind
