A few days ago ，my car was not running well. I pulled it into a garage and the young mechanic fixed it in just a few minutes. He knew what was wrong by simply listening to the engine sound. I was amazed. The sad truth is that great talent is not enough.     I am constantly shocked at how little talented people earn. I heard the other day that less than 5 percent of Americans earn more than $100，000 a year. A business consultant who specializes in the medical trade told me how many doctors and dentists struggle financially. It was this business consultant （顾问）who gave me the phrase ，“They are one skill away from great wealth.”     There is an old saying that goes，“JOB means  'Just Over Broke（破产）”. And unfortunately，I would say that the saying applies to millions of people. Because schools do not think financial intelligence is intelligence，most workers “live within their means”. They work and they pay the bills. Instead I recommend that young people seek work for what they will learn ，more than what they will earn.     When I ask the classes I teach ，“How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonald's ？ ” almost all the students raise their hands.I then ask ，“So if most of you can cook a better hamburger ，how come McDonald's makes more money than you？” The answer is obvious: McDonald's is excellent at business systems.The world is filled with talented poo r people.They focus on perfecting their skills at building a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger. ‎ ‎25.The author mentions the mechanic in the first paragraph to show that     . ‎ A. he is just one of the talented people              B. he is ready to help others C. he has a sharp sense of hearing                      D. he knows little about car repairing ‎26.The underlined part in the third paragraph can be best replaced by“     ”. ‎ A. spend more than they can afford                   B. do in their own way C. live in their own circle                                   D. live within what they earn ‎27.Why do talented people earn so little according to the author? ‎ A. They don't work hard enough.                        B. They lack financial intelligence.    C. They don't make full use of their talents.        D. They have no specialized skills.‎ ‎28.The main purpose of the author is to tell us      . ‎ A. how young people can find a satisfactory job    B. what schools should teach about finance C. why so many talented people are poor           D. how McDonald's makes much money C ‎   Obviously,art always amuses children and they can easily get benefit from it.This only proves that introducing art education at an early age is a great way to let children express what they see in their environment.Art activities give your children pleasurable experiences.     Art education helps children learn and improve communication skills.Apparently,there are children who find difficulty in communicating in words.In this sense,expressing their feelings through art is an excellent way.Art for kids offers a lot of important skills in life that will lead them to the right path.Simply watching television can teach them to read and count.Therefore,allowing your kids to paint can tell the thought in their mind.     Every child should learn problem solving naturally and on his own.In fact,when children are making something like drawing or painting,it is one way of problem solving.It is because art gives more realistic models that are stable. Likewise,art education can also help in developing critical-thinking skills,music,dance and theater arts.     Moreover,creating arts in group is a good way of mastering skills and in the same way they also learn from those of their age without pressure unlike the formal teaching lessons.That is why adult with children engaging in art should know that art is not all about expressing talent but it is a skill of creativity.     Also,engaging in art education can help building confidence.It is because even if they do not make it the right way,yet they feel proud on their artistic creations.Since art is a good start to collaborate（合作）with others,children can easily learn the cultures from different parts of the world.Therefore,teaching art education to children can spark （激发）their interest.You can visit Madison Art Shop if you are looking for art materials and supplies. ‎ ‎29.According to Paragraph 2,kids' learning painting______. ‎ A. gives them pleasurable experience                B. makes them adapt to competitive society C. lets them express their feelings in the heart   D. offers them a different lifestyle successfully ‎30.Why does art help solve problems? ‎ A. Because it gives people more imagination.   ‎ B. Because it makes people's brains work better. C. Because it provides more materials to choose from. ‎ D. Because it needs people to deal with the realistic models.‎ ‎31.What does the text mainly talk about? ‎ A. Suggestions on learning art.                            B. Dos and don'ts of art education. C. The benefits of art education.                          D. The skills of becoming an artist.‎ D ‎   No one enjoys hearing the sound of someone else chewing their food. Most of the time, though, it's not that big a deal but a minor annoyance.     But for a small group of people with misophonia (恐音症), the sound can be painful, causing extreme anger and deep discomfort. The most ordinary sounds of chewing and breathing can drive them crazy. Past attempts to explain the causes of misophonia have suggested everything from compulsive disorder to an easily-annoyed personality—but according to a study published yesterday in the journal CurrentBiology, the true criminal is the structure of the brain.     For the study, a team of researchers led by Newcastle University neuroscientist Sukhbinder Kumar recruited (招募) 42 volunteers, of whom around half had extreme misophonia and the other half served as the control group, and played them several different noises: some ordinary; some harsh, like the sound of a person screaming; and some that were ordinary for the control group but known to be annoying for misophonics, people with misophonia, like the sound of breathing. As the participants listened, the researchers monitored them for signs of anxiety, both physical symptoms and behavioral expressions, and observed their brain activity using FMRI scans.     The only significant difference in reaction between the two groups happened, during the misophonia-specific sounds, when those with the condition showed physical changes that suggested they were entering fight-or-flight mode.     Misophonics had increased activity in the AIC, an area known to play a central role in the system that determines which things we should pay attention to. When the trigger sounds were played, there was not only more activity in this region but also abnormally high levels of connection to other regions.     Misophonia, in other words, may be a result of misplaced attention the brain of a misophonic focuses on things that other people normally tune out (不予理会). On a related note, on behalf of misophonics and manners-minded moms everywhere: Please, chew with your mouth closed. ‎ ‎32.What is the true criminal of misophonia? ‎ A. Sounds of chewing and breathing.                 B. Compulsive disorder. C. An easily-annoyed personality.                      D. The structure of the brain.‎ ‎33.Which way did researches use to carry out their research?  ‎ A. Playing volunteers several different voices. B. Observing volunteers' heart activity using FMRI scans. C. Monitoring volunteers for signs of anxiety. D. Analyzing volunteers' answers to specific questions.‎ ‎34.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?  ‎ A. Misophonics had decreased activity in the AIC during the misophonia-specific sounds. B. The brain of a misophonic concentrates on things other people normally ignore. ‎ C. Around 42 volunteers with extreme misophonia were recruited in the research. D. Chewing food noisily is appreciated by the people all over the world.‎ ‎35.What is the main idea of the passage?  ‎ A. Reasons why misophonics can't stand even small noises. B. Misophonia may cause misplaced attention. C. We should care for misophonics. D. Symptoms of misophonia.‎ 第二节 (共5小题，每小题3分，满分15分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎   Every person wants to achieve the goals set at the beginning of a new school year. The following are some ways to help you achieve your goals.     ____36____When it comes to choosing your goal, ensure that it states precisely what it is that you want to achieve. Don't generalize. Your goal should involve both what you want to achieve and the effort that you will put in to achieve it.      ____37____Having a copy of your goal makes it real. You can write you goal in a journal you'll be keeping all year, or you can write it on a poster and stick it on your desk so that you can look at it each day. Every time you remind yourself of your goal, you're training your brain to accept the effort needed to make the goal happen.     Try various methods. One may not work while another may be just right for you. ____38____Some people learn best through writing, some through listening and reading, and some through talking it through. Once you realize which way works for you, you can work better and achieve your goal easily.     Think positive. ____39____Negative thoughts are unhelpful and they became roadblocks. Stop telling yourself you can't and start telling yourself you can, and talk about you are doing rather than hoping you can do something. Always believe that you're capable, even if you have difficulty along the way.     Reward yourself along the way. ____40____Occasionally, when you've achieved certain “milestones” in your goal plan, take a break and reward yourself. Watch a movie, visit a friend who lives across town, go to the ice cream shop with your friends or buy yourself something new. A. Write down your goal. B. Choose specific and realistic goals C. Be aware of the way you learn best D. Remember that everyone makes mistakes E. Set aside some time each week for exercise F. All study and no reward can break your spirit G.
