题目内容
19．Occupied with his work，he spends little time with his family．分析 忙于工作，他和家人在一起的时间很少．
解答 答案occupied．本题考查单词短语的识记； be occupied with sth．忙于某事；由下文的"he spends little time with his family他和家人在一起的时间很少"推断：他"忙于工作"；此外，英语中很多类似的"be+过去分词+介词/to do/that从句"的结构都是说明逻辑主语的状态，所以只要去掉be动词就可在句中充当定语、状语或补语．所以本题中用过去分词短语做状语，故答案是occupied．
点评 单词填空必须在对语境整体理解的基础上抓住指向答案的关键线索、固定句型或搭配等，同时注意所选词的形式变化．

10．Is there a"success personality"-some winning combination of qualities that leads almost inevitably （必然地） to achievement？If so，exactly what is that secret success formula（公式），and can anyone develop it？
At the Gallop Organization we recently focused in depth on success，inquiring into the attitudes of 1500distinguished people selected at random（随意）from Who's Who in America．Our research finds out a number of qualities that occur regularly among top achievers．Here is one of the most important，that is common sense．
Common sense is the most widely possessed quality of the people surveyed．Seventy-nine percent award themselves a top score in this quality．And 61percent say that common sense is very important in contributing to their success．
To most，common sense means the ability to present sound，practical judgments on everyday affairs．To do this，one has to remove extra ideas and get right to the key points of what matters．A Texas oil and gas businessman puts it this way："The key ability for success is simplifying．In conduction of meeting and dealing with industry reducing a complex problem to the simplest term is highly important．"
Is common sense a quality a person is born with，or can you do something to increase it？The oil man's answer is that common sense can definitely be developed．He owes this to learning how to debate in school．Another way to increase your store of common sense is to observe it in others，learning from their-and your own-mistakes．
Besides common sense，there are many other factors that influence success：knowing your field，self-reliance，intelligence，the ability to get things done，leadership，creativity，relationships with others，and of course，luck．But common sense stands out．If you develop these qualities，you'll succeed．And you might even find yourself listed in Who's Who someday．
