For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best f
15、its each blank.There are many ways of defining success. It is accurate to say that each of us has our own concept of success to the extent that each of us is responsible for setting our own goals and determining (21) _ we have met these goals satisfactorily. Because each of us possesses unique diffe
16、rences in genetic ability and favorable environments, it is necessarily true that we must define success broadly.For some people, simply being able to live their life with a minimum of misery and suffering (22) _ (consider) a success. Think of the peace of mind of the poor shepherd who tends his she
17、ep, enjoying his simple life with his family in the beauty of nature, and (23) _ is respected because he does a good job of achieving the goals expected of and accepted by him and his society. On the other hand, it seems that (24) _ _ some people appear to be rich in material possessions, many of th
18、em seem to be miserable and consider (25) _ unsuccessful when judged by their own goals of success. Because not all ventures can be successful, one should not set unrealistic goals for achieving success, but (26) _ one has self-confidence it would be unfortunate to set ones goals at too low a level
19、of achievement.A wise counselor once said to a young man who (27) _ (experience) frustration with his own professional success: “You do not have to set your goal to reach the moon in order to have success in traveling. Sometimes one (28) _ be very successful merely by taking a walk in the park, or r
20、iding the subway downtown,” The counselor added, “You have not really failed and spoiled your chances for success until you have been unsuccessful at something you really like, and (29) _ which you have given your best effort.”Whatever you define success, remember, we are born to live the lives we t

22、rierH. capturedI. objectiveJ. finishedK. flowingIve been writing for most of my life. The book Writing Without Teachers introduced me to one distinction and one practice that has helped my writing 31 greatly. The distinction is between the creative mind and the critical mind. While you need to emplo
23、y both to get to a final result, they cannot work in 32 no matter how much we might like to think so. Trying to criticize writing while it is still in progress is most possibly the single greatest 33 to writing that most of us meet with. If you are listening to that 5th grade English teacher correct
24、 your grammar while you are trying to seize a fleeting (稍纵即逝的) thought, the thought will die. If you capture the fleeting thought and simply share it with the world in raw form, no one is likely to understand. You must learn to 34 first and then criticize if you want to make writing the tool for thi
25、nking that it is. The practice that can help you pass your 35 bad habits of trying to edit as you write is what Elbow calls “free writing”. In free writing, the 36 is to get words down on paper non-stop, usually for 1520 minutes. No stopping, no going back, no criticizing. The goal is to get the wor

Now you have raw materials that you can begin to work with using the critical mind that youve persuaded to sit on the side and watch quietly. Most likely, you will
27、 believe that this will take more time than you actually have and you will end up staring blankly at the pages as the deadline draws near. Instead of staring at a blank screen, start filling it with words no matter how bad they are. Halfway through your 39 time, stop and rework your raw writing into
28、 something closer to a(n) 40 product. Move back and forth until you run out of time and the final result will most likely be far better than your current practices. III. Reading ComprehensionSection A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C
29、and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.For centuries, people have had a strong sense that it is absolutely beneficial to read fairy tales to children. However, the benefits might have been 41 . Some researchers are reassessing this long-established belief and af
30、ter years of surveys and observations, they are sending out the message: reading too much Cinderella to your daughter may 42 damage her in later life. A paper to be developed at the international congress of cognitive psychotherapy (认知心理疗法) suggests a link between the 43 of women abused (虐待) by thei
31、r partners and early exposure to the wrong sort of fairy tales. It says girls who 44 Cinderella, Rapunzel and Beauty in Beauty and the Beast were more likely to stay in 45 relationships as adults.The theory was developed by Susan Darker Smith, a psychotherapist at the University of Derby. She interv
32、iewed sixty-seven female abuse survivors and found that sixty-one 46 severe abuse because they believed they could change their partners with patience and love. The same view was 47 by male survivors who had been abused as children. Hardly any of the women and men in a control group, who had not 48
33、abuse, thought they could change their partners in this way. These women and men said they would 49 a relationship rather than suffer the abuse from a partner. Ms. Darker Smith found that these abused women were much more likely to sympathize with Cinderella and other female characters who tended to
34、 obey instead of 50 .Although most girls heard the stories, damage appeared to be done to those who 51 the characters as role models. “They believe if their love is strong enough they can change their partners 52 ,” she said. “ 53 in children to stories that emphasize the transformational qualities
35、of love may make women believe they can change their partners.” For example, they might never have understood the obvious 54 in the story of Rapunzel, who remained locked in a high tower until rescued by a knight on a white horse, who broke the door down. “The question,” said Ms. Darker Smith, “is w
36、hy she did not break the door by herself? After all, being 55 is a desirable characteristic that children should learn to possess from the early age and prevail in the life time. ”41.A. enhancedB. overestimatedC. highlightedD. justified42.A. physicallyB. intellectuallyC. academically D. emotionally4

40、he information given in the passage you have just read.(A)For the residents of Flint, Michigan, USA., the burden of the ongoing water crisis can be measured in weight. Few outside of Vehicle City can tell you how much a 24-pack of bottled water weighs. But in Flint, they can recite it from memory: 2
41、6 1/2 lb. For more than a year, many Flint residents have been making the daily journey to distribution centers to load up on cases of water for virtually every basic chore: bathing, brushing teeth, making dinner. Twelve months ago, the city government decided to switch the water supply to the Flint
42、 River, which allowed lead and other toxins from the citys aging pipes to flow into residents taps. Although the state government has provided $200 million to solve the problem, the water in Flint remains unsafe to drink without a filter. But there are halting signs of progress.The city has since sw
43、itched its water source back to Detroits properly treated supply, and test results have started showing signs of normalcy. Marc Edwards, the Virginia Tech environmental engineer says Flints water is no less safe than other sources around the nation. “Theres no reason to believe the water in Flint is
44、 any more dangerous than other U.S. cities,”Edwards says. However, some residents cast doubt on those results. Melissa Mays, a Flint resident and organizer of Water You Fighting For?, a local advocacy group, says she still breaks out in rashes and wants more tests from showers and water heaters for
45、bacteria like Legionella, an outbreak of which has killed 12 people around Flint since April 2014. “We feel like were right back at the beginning,” Mays says.As the state tries to decide who should be responsible for the crisis, the city is working to replace its old lead pipes. But only 700 of Flin
46、ts 30,000 lead service lines have been dug up and replaced. Overhauling them all will require far more than the $27 million the state has provided. “Its a shame that its taken this long,” says Mayor Karen Weaver, who was elected in the wake of the crisis. “The bottom line is that we need and deserve
47、 new pipes.”But even with new infrastructure (基础设施), the real challenge in Flint may be restoring public confidence in the face of immeasurable distrust.56.The author mentioned the numbers in the first paragraph to _.A. call people to pay attention to the problem of water security B. indicate the effect of the water problem on the people of FlintC. highlight the good memory of the average people of FlintD. urge the government to financially help people of Flint 57.Wh
