5.Travis is the manager of G&G where he is responsible for forty employees (雇员)and profits (利润)of over $2 million per year.He's never late to work.He does not get upset on the job.When one of his employees started crying after a customer screamed at her,Travis took her away."Your working uniform is your shelter,"he told her."Nothing anyone says will ever hurt you.You will always be as strong as you want to be."Travis picked up that lecture in one of his G&G training courses,an education program that began on his first day and continues throughout an employee's occupation.The training has,Travis says,changed his life.G&G has taught him how to live,how to focus,how to get to work on time,and how to master his emotions (情绪).Most importantly,it taught him willpower.
At the center of that education is an extreme focus on an all-important habit; willpower.Dozens of cases show that willpower is the single most important habit for a person's success.
And the best way to strengthen willpower is to make it into a habit."Sometimes it looks like people with great self-control aren't working hard-but that's because they've made it automatic,"Angela Duckworth,one of the University of Pennsylvania
researchers said."Their willpower occurs without them having to think about it."
The company spent millions of dollars developing programs of study to train
employees on self-control.Managers wrote workbooks that serve as guides to how to make willpower a habit in workers'lives.Those courses arc,in part,why G&G has grown from a sleepy company into a large one with more than seventeen thousand stores and profits of more than 10 billion a year.

分析 本文通过G&G公司的培训课程告诉我们:人的意志力是我们能否取得成功的关键.公司的成功秘诀就是让员工参加一个教育课程,从而获得自控力,使意志力成为习惯,加强意志力最好的方法就是让意志力成为一种习惯.
解答 33.B 细节理解题.根据第二段的"Travis picked up that lecture in one of his G&G training courses,an education program that began on his first day and continues throughout an employee's occupation."可知,G&G的培训课程在新员工入职第一天就开始,而且贯穿于员工的工作之中.也就是说G&G的员工都得参加这样的培训课程.故选B.
34.D 细节理解题.根据第三段的"And the best way to strengthen willpower is to make it into a habit."Sometimes it looks like people with great self-control aren't working hard-but that's because they've made it automatic"可知,加强意志力最好的方法就是让意志力成为一种习惯.有自控力的人好像不要很努力就可以获得意志力,因为它们已经是自动的了.也就是说当员工能够很好地控制自己的感情时,就会让意志力成为习惯.故选D.
35.C 推理判断题.根据最后一段的"The company spent millions of dollars developing programs of study to train employees on self-control."和 最后一句"Those courses are,in part,why G&G has grown from a sleepy company into a large one with more than seventeen thousand stores and profits of more than $10 billion a year."可知,这家公司在培训员工自控力方面花了很多钱,而且也让公司发展得很好,正是因为在员工培训方面的投入很大,所以他们可能在未来会取得更大的成功.故选C.
