I.阅读理解
A
The Nobel Prize is considered one of the most recognizable and admirable awards possible, honoring
people of the world for their outstanding achievements in different fields.
Alfred Nobel was born in 1833 to a family of engineers in Stockholm, Sweden. Nobel as a young man
studied with Nikolai Zinin, a well-known chemist. In 1850, he met Ascanio Sobrero, the inventor of
nitroglycerin (炸药) in Paris. Interested in its unpredictable nature of exploding under pressure or heat,
Nobel started to find a way to control it and make a usable explosive. In 1857 he applied for his first patent
(专利), an English patent for a gas meter. After years of efforts, in 1867, at the age of 34, Nobel invented
dynamite(炸药), which is much easier and safer to control than nitroglycerin. Dynamite was an immediate
business success and it was patented in the US and the UK and was widely used in mining.
During his lifetime, Nobel invented and patented various explosives. He built up his wealth from his
355 inventions, from which dynamite was the most important.
When Alfred’s brother Ludwig died in 1888, a French newspaper mistakenly published Alfred’s
obituary (讣告). Reading his own obituary, Nobel was disappointed to find out his public image. The
newspaper strongly blamed Nobel for inventing dynamite, giving him the nickname of “the merchant of
death” and saying “Dr. Alfred Nobel, who became rich by finding ways to kill more people faster than ever
before, died yesterday. ”
To Alfred, this obituary was a warning. He spent his lifetime alone inventing things and was deeply
concerned with how he would be remembered. This unfortunate event inspired him to make changes in his
will, so as to improve his public image, and to be remembered for a good cause.
In 1895, one year before his death, Nobel made the last will, saying clearly that his wealth would be
used to create a series of prizes for those who have made great contributions to mankind in physics,

3. Why did Nobel give away most of his wealth to set up the Nobel Foundation?

Every summer, my family and I visit our relatives in India and whenever we travel, my parents always
remind me to drink only bottled or boiled water. On one of my trips to India, I saw children drinking water
from the roadside. I was troubled to learn that millions of people, most of them children in developing
countries, die each year because of waterrelated diseases.
Living in the US, I am lucky to be able to turn on the tap and get potable water (饮用水), while one
sixth of the world's population lacks access to clean water. This year, I entered the Discovery Education 3M
Young Scientist Challenge. In late June, I learnt that I was selected as one of the top 10 national finalists of
this famous middle school science competition. Over the summer, I worked with Dr Jim Jonza, my scientist
mentor (导师)from 3M, and developed a system that uses solar energy to purify water. My invention is
green and costeffective, and I am looking forward to implementing this in places that are affected by
harmful water pollution.
In October, my family and I flew to 3M headquarters in St Paul, Minnesota, where the final event was
to be held. For the last challenge, each of us had to present the invention we had been working on over the
summer. The first place winner would win $25,000, a trip to Costa Rica, and the title of America's Top
Young Scientist. At the awards ceremony, all of us waited anxiously until one of the judges，Danny
Forester, started announcing “The winner of the Discovery Education 3M Young Scientist Challenge is...”
You could hear a pin (大头针) drop as he opened the paper with the winner's name, “Deepika Kurup！”
As America's Top Young Scientist, I was given an opportunity to show my invention on national
television and deliver several presentations. One of the most important things I have learnt is that
communication and teamwork are key to success.

II.七选五
Last Sunday I was thinking about the difference between successful people and those who don't
achieve anything significant. I made an interesting discovery. This difference may at first look obvious, but
the fact is quite the opposite. __1__
Everyone has a purpose behind their actions. If they don't, they wouldn't take action. __2__ When they
take action, at the back of their minds they think about success that this action is going to bring them.
__3__ What's the purpose behind your actions？Do you work to thrive or to survive? Do you go to
work to feed your family or to create an amazing lifestyle?
Different purposes will result in completely different life experiences. People who work to survive are
the ones who fear that some unexpected bill will arrive. They go to bed worrying about money and
unimportant things. They hate their employment but don't quit because they doubt their own ability to
create something greater. I know this kind of feeling because I was like that once. That's a very
uncomfortable state to be in because you are constantly worried about insignificant things. __4__
Therefore, you cannot achieve anything great.
Now there are some people who don't accept the “Life is hard” story and they are fueled by an entirely
different purpose.
They work to thrive. __5__ They have a beautiful vision and they take constant action to make that
vision a reality.

B．Such an attitude invites great opportunities to you.
C．It lies in what motivates people to take action.
D．So let me ask you a few questions.
E．And this makes you take even more or better quality action.
F．This state does not allow you to be creative.
G．But successful people have a completely different purpose behind their actions.
