The latest research suggests that the key factor separating geniuses from the merely accomplished is not I.Q., a generally bad predictor of success. Instead, it’s purposeful practice. Top performers spend more hours practising their craft. If you wanted to picture how a typical genius might develop, you’d take a girl who possessed a slightly above average language ability. It wouldn’t have to be a big talent, just enough so that she might gain some sense of distinction. Then you would want her to meet, say, a novelist, who coincidentally shared some similar qualities. Maybe the writer was from the same town, had the same family background, or shared the same birthday.

This contact would give the girl a vision of her future self. It would give her some idea of a fascinating circle who might someday join. It would also help if one of her parents died when she was 12, giving her a strong sense of insecurity and fuelling a desperate need for success. Armed with this ambition, she would read novels and life stories of writers without end. This would give her a primary knowledge of her field. She would be able to see new writing in deeper ways and quickly understand its inner workings.

Then she would practise writing. Her practice would be slow, painstaking and error-focused. By practising in this way, she delays the automating process. Her mind wants to turn conscious, newly learned skills into unconscious, automatically performed skills. By practising slowly, by breaking skills down into tiny parts and repeating, she forces the brain to internalize a better pattern of performance. Then she would find an adviser who would provide a constant stream of feedback, viewing her performance form the outside, correcting the smallest errors, pushing her to take on tougher challenges. By now she is redoing problems—how do I get characters into a room—dozens and dozens of times. She is establishing habits of thought she can call upon in order to understand or solve future problems.

The primary quality our young writer possesses is not some mysterious genius. It’s the ability to develop a purposeful, laborious and boring practice routine; the latest research takes some of the magic out of great achievement. But it underlines a fact that is often neglected. Public discussion is affected by genetics and what we’re “hard-wired” to do. And it’s true that genes play a role in our capabilities. But the brain is also very plastic. We construct ourselves through behavior.

56. The passage mainly deals with          .

A. the function of I.Q. in cultivating a writer

B. the relationship between genius and success

C. the decisive factor in making a genius

D. the way of gaining some sense of distinction

57. By reading novels and writers’ stories, the girl could         .

A. come to understand the inner structure of writing

B. join a fascinating circle of writers someday

C. share with a novelist her likes and dislikes

D. learn from the living examples to establish a sense of security

58. In the girl’s long painstaking training process, ________.

A. her adviser forms a primary challenging force to her success.

B. her writing turns into an automatic pattern of performance

C. she acquires the magic of some great achievement

D. she comes to realize she is “hard-wired” to write

59. What can be concluded from the passage?

A. A fuelling ambition plays a leading role in one’s success

B. A responsible adviser is more important than the knowledge of writing.

C. As to the growth of a genius, I.Q. doesn’t matter, but just his/her effort.

   Famous people have a lot of influence on cultural trends, like it or not. When Amal Clooney wears a Stella McCarney dress, sales go way up. However, one trend that seems harmless---but is actually damaging—is the pressure on stars to have their photos taken with rare animals.

Famous people who are asked to have photos taken with wild animals for a magazine spread or who do so while on vacation always have good intentions and even love animals. This makes them easy targets for the often greedy amusement parks and fake animal centers. These businesspeople love the thought of sharing pictures of a star hugging a baby tiger or a whale. Kind people are naturally drawn to places that claim to offer rare animals safety and are eager to see elephants paint, to hug baby bear or to swim with dolphins. However, it has shown that many of these businessmen are breeders, dealers or exhibitors that are using Hollywood’s goodwill for their own ends.

At the recently closed Tiger Temple in Thailand, 40 dead tiger cubs(幼崽) were found in a freezer, secretly killed to make tiger wine and other folk medicine for sale on the black market. But it isn’t just the “tiger temples” that are being closed down. The number of tourist traps using word like “rescue” in their names has increased greatly in recent years.

Many businessmen continually breed the animals just so they’ll have a constant supply of young animals in order to charge money for photos to people. Of course the babies are cute but they grow fast, and within a few weeks they are too big to handle. They’ll spend the rest of their lives, sometimes decades, in small and empty cages — or even be killed.

In some Asian countries, elephants are kept in camps. A few camps are working to help elephants in trouble, but the vast majority are not, and training methods are cruel. As soon as the cameras are gone after someone like Prince William takes a photo with an elephant, the chains go back on.

Fans, tell the stars: Stay away from rare animal photos, and the animals will be grateful. Of course, you don’t have to be famous to make a difference. Whether right here at home or at a place abroad, every one of us must fight the temptation to take a photo with an elephant or hug a baby tiger.

28. The author intends to make an appeal that ________.

   A. all people including stars should refuse to take photos with rare animals

   B. measures should be taken to protect the rare animals

   C. bans should be issued to limit celebrities’ behavior

   D. warns of wild animals should be given to the public

29. It can be inferred that __________.

   A. tiger wine and folk medicine made from tiger babies are sold in the supermarket

   B. most of the elephants in Asia are treated well in camps

   C. people are attracted to amusement parks and fake animal centers where celebrities share photos

   D. when the baby animals that take photos with tourists grow up, they will be set free

30. Businessmen use the following tricks to make profits EXCEPT________.

   A. in the name of rescuing rare animals

   B. take advantage of famous people to take photos with animals

   C. claim to offer rare animals safety

   D. protection of rare animals

31. Which of the following do you think is the best title?

   A. Tell stars to stop!               B. Be careful when sharing photos on media!

   C. No sale, no killing!              D. Rescue the endangered animals!

       Sleeping in on Saturday after a few weeks of too little shuteye may feel refreshing, but it can give a false sense of security.

       New research shows long-term sleep loss cannot be cured that easily. Scientists researched

the effects of short- and long-term sleep loss and found that those who suffer long-term sleep loss may function normally soon after waking up, but experience steadily slower reaction times as the day goes by, even if they had tried to catch up the previous night.

The research has important safety significances in an increasingly busy society, not just for shift-workers but for the roughly one in six Americans who regularly get six hours or less of sleep a night.

    “We know that staying awake 24 hours without sleep will affect your performance to do all sorts of things, and this effect equals to drinking too much when driving,” said lead researcher Dr. Daniel Cohen of Boston’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital. But when those who suffer long-term sleep loss become all-nighters, “the harm is increased ten times,” Cohen said.

The National Institutes of Health says adults need seven hours to nine hours of sleep for good health.Regularly getting too little sleep increases the risk of health problems, including memory impairment and a weakened immune system. More immediately, too little sleep affects reaction times; sleepiness is to blame for car crashes and other accidents.

It has critically important complicated and unexpected results for anyone who works “crazy hours” and thinks they are performing fine with a few hours of weeknight sleep, said Harris, director at New York’s Montefiore Medical Center. “Don’t think you can just bank up your sleep on the weekend, because it doesn’t work that way,” he warned.

51.The text mainly advises people ______.

A．to sleep more time              B．to sleep in on Saturday

C．to sleep scientifically    D．to sleep little on weekend

52.People with long-term sleep loss ______.

A．are quicker in thinking  B．may feel refreshed soon after waking up

C．are surely energetic            D．can have a strong sense of security

53.What can we learn from the text?

A．Most of the Americans get six hours or less of sleep a night.

B．Staying up is worse for those who suffer long-term sleep loss.

C．Traffic accidents have little to do with sleepiness.

D．One in six Americans are all-nighters.

54.Which of the following is the immediate effect of long-term sleep loss?

A．Health problems    B．Immune system

C．Reaction times             D．Memory impairment

55.The underlined phrase “bank up” in the last paragraph most probably means ____.

There are many principles and values all people live by. The  41  that I live by is honesty. I have always been taught that lying will just get me into more trouble than I might already be  42 . Being honest is a  43  all people need to have and use to go  44  in life. 

Ever since I was a little kid, my parents have  45  me to be honest  46  it is the right thing to do. As I got  47 , I realized something very important that could  48  the way people take me to be a person. If just once you stop being honest and tell a lie it will  49  change people’s opinion of you and their whole way of acting  50  you. When you tell a lie you lose that person’s  51  forever or have to work your whole life to get it back.

 It is my personal   52  to achieve great things in life and honesty will sure help me get there. For me right now losing somebody’s trust would be a truly  53  thing. Whatever you do for a living or  54  you live, honesty is something important for all of us.

Honesty gets you much higher in life than getting into more  55  like lying would. Lying can   56  get you into trouble dealing with the government. Honesty is just as important to me as my family. Already, I know it is something that will  57  my future and my relationship with all people. It is something about myself that I hope to never  58  no matter what happens. Most of all honesty will help me no matter whether I’m at school, home or just  59  with friends. It is something  60  I hope my children will also have and appreciate.
