6.Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family,and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck.I'm not going to say luck,talent,and circumstances don't come into play because they do.Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence,and that's just the reality of how life is.
However,to succeed in life,one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical.And,in addition to that,in order to get really good at something,one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing.To become great at certain things,it'll require even more time,time that most people won't put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love.If you don't enjoy what you do,it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.
When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success,you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost.It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent,but thinking that way does you no good,and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway.
Whatever you do,if you want to become great at it,you need to work day in and day out,almost to the point of addiction,and over a long period of time.If you're not willing to put in the time and work,don't expect to receive any rewards.Consistent,hard work won't guarantee you the level of success you may want,but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.

分析 文章大意:有人认为成功是属于那些有天赋的人,或者是出生于良好家庭的人,也有人认为成功大部分是来自于好运.而作者认为,要在生活中取得成功,你必须要设定一个目标然后逐步将它变得更加实际.除此之外,要变得更加擅长某事,必须花费至少一万个小时进行学习和实践.如果想要在某个事业取得巨大成就,那需要花费常人所不能投入的更多的时间.所以我们要去做自己喜欢的事情,如果做自己不喜欢的事情,我们是无法忍受的,并且会提前放弃.总的来说,要想取得成功,我们需要没日没夜地工作,达到入迷的程度,并长此以往.

解答 31.A  主旨大意题.通过第一段我们可以得知作者列出很多人认为成功的因素,如"Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence"出生在好的家庭,天赋异禀,可得知本段主要在讲一些成功的因素,故选A.此外根据上下文意思和排除法,不难得出答案是原因.其他meaning(意义),standards(标准),importance(重要性)都不正确.
32.B 代词指代题.此种题目的答案多数在前文找,根据前文,不难得知答案.However,to succeed in life,one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical.And,in additional to that,in order to get really good at something,one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing.此外,也可以从结构上找到答案,出现两次的needs.
33.D 细节理解题.题眼出现在第三段第一句This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love.但其中的this就是指代上文的内容,即第二段的最后两句话的内容…one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing.To become great at certain things,it'll require even more time,time that most people won't put in.这两句就告诉我们,要成功需要花费大量的时间.
34.B 推理判断题.根据第四段"It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent,but thinking that way does you no good,and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway."句义为"很容易去认为他们是运气好,或者天生有些独特的天赋,但是这么想对你并无好处,而且极有可能你想错了.可以得知很多人的成功并不是因为天赋或运气.
35.C 主旨大意题.可通过文章最后一段主题句"Whatever you do,if you want to become great at it,you need to work day in and day out,almost to the point of addiction,and over a long period of time."以及文章多次提到要花费时间和精力可知正确选项为C.ABD项都是以偏概全.

点评 阅读文章,概括大意,了解主旨,上下文贯通理解.

1.Peanuts to This
Proudly reading my words,I glanced around the room,only to find my classmates bearing big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes.Confused,I glanced toward my stone-faced teacher.Having no choice,I slowly raised the report I had slaved over,hoping to hide myself."What could be causing everyone to act this way?"
Quickly,I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task.This was the first real talk I received in my new school.It seemed simple:go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington.Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country,I had never heard of that name before.As I searched the name of this fellow,it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different!One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts,while the other led some sort of army across America.I stared at the screen,wondering which one my teacher meant.I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice; flip (掷) a coin.Heads-the commander,and tails-the peanuts guy.Ah!Tails,my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter,George Washington Carver.
Weeks later,standing before this unfriendly mass,I was totally lost.Oh well,I lowered the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong.As a classmate began his report,it all became clear,"My report is on George Washington,the man who started the American Revolution."The whole world became quite!How could I know that she meant that George Washington?
Obviously,my grade was awful.Heartbroken but fearless,I decided to turn this around.I talked to Miss Lancelot,but she insisted:No re-dos; no new grade.I felt that the punishment was not justified,and I believed I deserved a second chance.Consequently,I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year.Ten months later,that chance unfolded as I found myself sitting in the headmaster's office with my grandfather,now having an entirely different conversation.I smiled and flashed back to the embarrassing moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster informed me of my option to skip the sixth grade.Justice is sweet!
