【题目】As the richest man in the world, Bill Gates is no stranger to success. So when the billionaire offers advice, it’s smart to listen. On Monday, Bill Gates hosted an “AMA” or “ask me anything” session(会议) on Reddit, during which a participant asked, “If you could give 19-year-old Bill Gates some advice, what would it be?”

Gates said: I would explain that smartness is not single dimensional and not quite as important as I thought it was back then. I would say you might explore the developing world before you get into your forties. I wasn’t very good socially back then, but I am not sure there is advice that would fix that--maybe I had to be awkward and just grow up...”

In short: Intelligence isn’t one-dimensional-and it’s not the only ingredient required for success.

This isn’t the only time Gates has given out advice on navigating your years as a young adult. One of his best pieces of wisdom comes from fellow billionaire and friend Warren Buffett: Keep things simple. In a 2009 interview with CNBC. Gates said: “You look at his calendar; It’s pretty simple. You talk to him about a case where he thinks a business is attractive, and he knows a few basic numbers and facts about it. And he knows a few basic numbers and facts about it. And if it gets less complicated, he feels like then it’s something he’ll choose to invest (投资) in. He picks the things that he’s got a model of, a model that really is predictive and that’s going to continue to work over a long-term period. And so his ability to boil things down, to just work on the things that really count, to think through the basics —it’s so amazing that he can do that. It’s a special form of genius(天才).”

1What can we learn about 19-year-old Bill Gates?

A. He was not a smart youth.

B. He overvalued the importance of smartness.

C. He had developed great social skills.

D. He thought intelligence was multidimensional.

2What’s Warren Buffett’s motto?

A. Keep learning. B. Keep things simple.

C. Intelligence isn’t one-dimensional. D. Intelligence is the key to success.

3What does the underlined phrase “boil things down” mean?

A. Take things down clearly and in detail.

B. Break things down into many smaller pieces.

C. Make things shorter by leaving out unnecessary parts.

D. Do things at a slower pace in order to be careful.

4What does Bill Gates think about Warren Buffett?

A. Hard to understand. B. Easygoing and talkative.

C. Fearless in investment. D. Wise and extraordinary.

【题目】阅读理解
When we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.
People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else seems blurry. Many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing become near-sighted. People who are far-sighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm's length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.
Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people's eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白内障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.
Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle. To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the object's relation to the background and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distances as people with two eyes.
(1)We should take good care of our eyes.
A.only when we can see well
B.only when we cannot see perfectly
C.even if we can see well
D.only when we realize how important our eyes are
(2)The underlined word blurry in the second paragraph probably means.
A.obvious
B.possible
C.clear
D.unclear
(3)Having two eyes instead of one is particularly useful for.
A.seeing at night
B.seeing objects far away
C.looking over a wide area
D.judging distances
(4)People who suffer from astigmatism have.
A.one eye bigger than the other
B.eyes that are not exactly the right shape
C.a difficulty that can be corrected by an operation
D.an eye difficulty that cannot be corrected by glasses
