Clean electricity is the power of the future, but engineers are facing a big challenge. How can we store
electricity to be used at times when the wind is not blowing and the sun is not shining? In some cases, the answer
will be batteries; but in other cases, it could come from a variety of different solutions—starting with gravity.
Gravity is the most abundant source of power on Earth. It’s always been everywhere since the beginning of
time. Nobody knew about it until around 1700, when Isaac Newton saw an apple fall from a tree in his garden.
Newton asked himself the question: “Why did that apple fall to the ground?” And he soon worked out the answer.
Everything will fall to the ground if it can do so, because there is a massive force that pulls things towards the
center of the earth. Newton decided to call this force “gravity”, a word that then just meant “weight”.
Engineers have used gravity as a source of power for centuries, long before Newton first explained it. In
particular, they used gravity to move water from one place to another to irrigate (灌溉) fields and bring water to
cities. They knew that water would flow downhill, but never uphill, so they built structures to use the force of
gravity most effectively.
In 1907, engineers in Switzerland first used gravity for a new purpose: to store energy. They pumped (用泵抽
送) water up a hill, where they stored it in a lake. Then when they needed more electricity, they let the water come
back down the hill, driving electric turbines (涡轮机) as it fell. The idea was just so simple, and it is now used in
many parts of the world. However, the problem is that “pumped storage” hydro schemes (抽水蓄能水电方案)
can’t be built just anywhere, as they need lots of water and big hills or mountains.
Some experts believe that gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricity. Gravity-stored electricity is
maybe half the price of battery-stored electricity, but even so it is not cheap. In order to make gravity more
effective, we would need to increase its force—and that, of course, is quite impossible. Yet gravity is not the only
way of storing energy, and engineers are working on systems that store it using water pressure or compressed air...
and even sand!
Storage is one of the big scientific challenges of our time, as storage is the essential partner of wind power and
solar power. We need clean electricity 24 hours a day, not just when the sun is shining or the wind is blowing.

It is so easy to describe people as being talented. Just look at any headline praising a piece of artwork, music,
or other great feat, and you are likely to see the word “talented” or “gifted”. However, is being talented a true
marker of success?
Some people believe that talent plays a key role in achieving success fast. Those with natural ability in a
particular field can often gain success rapidly with less effort. For example, a person with a natural ear for music
may find it easier to learn to play an instrument. Take a look at Wolfgang Mozart. He composed his first musical
masterpiece (杰作) at the age of 5. And at the age of 7, he went on his first tours to perform his abilities for the
world.
In the process of highlighting the “natural” gifts of achievers, hard work can get lost in the mix. The result is
that many “talents” believe they only need to depend on their innate (内在的) abilities in order to produce great
works. Inevitably, this can lead to disappointment, frustration, and even mental health problems, because the reality
is that talent alone is not enough.
One is often led to believe that being naturally gifted is the ultimate prerequisite (最终的先决条件) for
success in any field. But almost every example of a big achievement involves some degree of putting in some
amount of work. In athletics, for example, standout athletes such as Michael Jordan, Usain Bolt, and Serena
Williams are often praised for their natural abilities. However, closer analysis of their careers shows that these
athletes spent huge chunks of their lives practicing.
Aside from working hard, talent can only become useful if the owner of that talent does what is necessary to
expand (拓展) it. If your talent is just being good at playing the guitar, for instance, that ability can only get you so
far because there are many other people who also know their way around the instrument. How will you set yourself
apart from the crowd? You would do so by finding ways to expand your guitar-playing capabilities, whether that
means learning new finger tricks or mastering different types of guitars. Then you will be more successful than
others.
Nothing is wrong with having natural abilities. After all, everyone is born to be good at something. However,
finding success at any level, and in any field, requires more than talent. The relationships you create with people
and habits you develop also play a role in your ability to grow your career. But, ultimately, working hard is the
main factor as to how far you can go.
30. The writer uses the example of Mozart to tell us that ________.
A. natural ability can help speed up success
B. being famous should be as early as possible
C. talent can take the place of effort completely
第12页/共18页

A. The result of an art competition.
B. The achievements of famous talents.
C. The problems of overvaluing innate abilities.
D. The process of producing great works by talents.
32. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Hard work helps people find out their natural abilities easily.
B. Almost every great achievement requires a certain amount of effort.
C. Relationships with people and habits are more important than talent.
D. Talented people are more likely to succeed than hardworking people.
33. The writer probably agrees that ________.
A. hard work brings people more success than talent does
B. talent gives people a head start in achievement s in any field
C. having talent is not enough to ensure success unless talent is improved
D. hard work is no more necessary unless it is done by people successfully

阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
Reading with The Fingertips (指尖)
Louis Braille was born in France in 1809．When he was three, he injured an eye in an accident in his father’s
workshop. The infection (感染) from the wound spread to his other eye. Within a year he couldn’t see anything.
When he was ten, he was sent to a school for the blind. Students there learned by listening to their teachers.
One day, a visitor came to the school. His name was Charles Barbier. He was to have a great influence on
Braille. Louis was then twelve years old. Barbier had invented a new way of writing. He had hoped the French
army would adopt (采纳) his method. This writing was designed to be used at night. Soldiers could read it without
showing a light. Barbier hoped the head of the school whose students lived their lives in darkness could use his way
of writing.
Louis Braille stood out among those students. His mind was quick. He was eager to learn. The head of school
invited him to meet the visitor. Barbier began to show how his writing worked. Braille’s interest was aroused.
Barbier took a sheet of thick paper. Using a pointed instrument, he punched a series of holes to make raised dots
(点) on the other side of the paper. These dots were grouped together in cells (单元格). The cells could be placed
in any of twelve positions. Each group stood for a different sound. By running a fingertip over them, a person could
read a message.
Braille was excited by Barbier’s invention. But he knew that it needed to be simpler. He started working on it
at once. Instead of twelve positions for each unit, he decided to work with six. This let a reader make sense of the
raised dots more quickly and easily.
Braille remained at the school all his life, He taught there. He also helped to print books that used his method.
Braille was a very good musician. He showed people how to write music in his way.
Charles Barbier did not sell his method to the army. But he played a part in changing forever the way blind
people read. Because of what he started and Louis Braille completed, people everywhere who cannot see are no
longer limited by blindness.

【答案】例文
Dear Tom,
I’m glad to introduce my ways to deal with the waste. I often cut a waste bottle in half, and then I can get a
special container which I can put my pens and other things in. Besides, I also try to make them into art pieces to
decorate my room. In these ways, I not only improve my DIY skills but also help protect the environment. The
most important is that I turn these waste things into useful things and give them new lives.

Yours,
