第二部分 话题阅读训练
（A）阅读理解
Would you BET on the future of this man？He is 53 years old. Most of his adult life has been
a losing struggle against debt and misfortune. A war injury has made his left hand stop
functioning，and he has often been in prison. Driven by heaven-knows-what motives，he
determines to write a book.
The book turns out to be one that has appealed to the world for more than 350 years. That
former prisoner was Cervantes，and the book was Don Quixote（《堂吉诃德》）. And the
story poses an interesting question: why do some people discover new vitality and creativity to the
资料收集整理【淘宝店铺：向阳百分百】end of their days，while others go to seed long before？
We've all known people who run out of steam before they reach life's halfway mark. I'm not
talking about those who fail to get to the top. We can't all get there. I'm talking about people who
have stopped learning on growing because they have adopted the fixed attitudes and opinions that
all too often come with passing years.
Most of us，in fact，progressively narrow the variety of our lives. We succeed in our field of
specialization and then become trapped in it. Nothing surprises us. We lose our sense of wonder.
But，if we are willing to lean，the opportunities are everywhere.
The things we learn in maturity seldom involve information and skills We learn to bear with
the things we can't change. We learn to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to
please，some people are never going to love us-an idea that troubles at first but is eventually
relaxing.
With high motivation and enthusiasm，we can keep on learning. Then we will know how
important it is to have meaning in our life. However，we can achieve meaning only if we have
made a commitment to something larger than our own little egos（自我），whether to loved
ones，to fellow humans，to work，or to some moral concept.
Many of us equate（视……等同于）“commitment” with such “caring” occupations as
teaching and nursing. But doing any ordinary job as well as one can is in itself an admirable
commitment. People who work toward such excellence whether they are driving a truck，or
running a store-make the world better just by being the kind of people they are. They've learned
life's most valuable lesson.

A. loss of freedom stimulates one's creativity
B. age is not a barrier to achieving one's goal
C. misery inspires a man to fight against his fate
D. disability cannot stop a man's pursuit of success
52. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 probably mean？
A. End one's struggle for liberty.
B. Waste one's energy taking risks.
C. Miss the opportunity to succeed.
D. Lose the interest to continue learning.
53. What could be inferred from Paragraph 4？
A. Those who dare to try often get themselves trapped.
B. Those who tend to think back can hardly go ahead.
C. Opportunity favors those with a curious mind.
D. Opportunity awaits those with a cautious mind.
54. What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5？
A. A tough man can tolerate suffering.
资料收集整理【淘宝店铺：向阳百分百】B. A wise man can live without self-pity.
C. A man should try to satisfy people around him.
D. A man should learn suitable ways to deal with life.
55. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage？
A. To provide guidance on leading a meaningful adult life.
B. To stress the need of shouldering responsibilities at work.
C. To state the importance of generating motivation for learning.
D. To suggest a way of pursuing excellence in our lifelong career.
（B）七选五
In an online class, developing healthy patterns of communication with professors is very
important. ___36___ While I have only listed two of each, there are obviously many other
situations that can arise. Students should be able to extend the logic(逻辑)of each to their
particular circumstance.
Do's
• ___37___ Questions about subject content are generally welcomed. Before asking
questions about the course design, read the syllabus(教学大纲)and learning management system
information to be sure the answer isn't hiding in plain sight.
• Participate in discussion forums(论坛), blogs and other open-ended forums for dialogue.
___38___ Be sure to stay on topic and not offer irrelevant information. Make a point, and make it
safe for others to do the same.
Don'ts
• Don't share personal information or stories. Professors are not trained nurses, financial aid
experts or your best friends. If you are in need of a deadline extension, simply explain the
situation to the professor. ___39___
• Don't openly express annoyance at a professor or class. ___40___ When a student attacks
a professor on the social media, the language used actually says more about the student. If there is
truly a concern about a professor's professionalism or ability, be sure to use online course
evaluations to calmly offer your comments.
A. That's what they are for.
B. Turn to an online instructor for help.
C. If more information is needed, they will ask.
D. Remember that online professors get a lot of emails.
E. Below are some common do's and don' ts for online learners.
F. Everyone has taken a not-so-great class at one time or another.
G. Ask questions, but make sure they are good, thoughtful questions.
