What do the world's most successful people all have in common?
By examining the work habits of over 150 greatest writers and artists and scientists, the researchers including Stanford professor Jeffrey Pfeiffer found that high achievers like Robert Moses turned out to be all alike:
Busy! Busy!
In a study of general managers in industry, John Kotter reports that many of them work 60 to 65 hours per week—which translates into at least six 10-hour days. The ability and willingness to work difficult and tiring hours has characterized many powerful figures. Energy and strength provide many advantages to those seeking to build power.
Just Say No!
The difference between successful people and very successful people is that very successful people say “no” to almost everything. And that's what gives them the time to accomplish so much. And focus means saying “no” to a lot of distractions (分神).

Ignore your weaknesses and keep improving your strengths. Don't waste time exploring skill areas where you have little competence. Instead, focus on—and build on—your strengths. This means knowing who you are, what you are and what you are good at.
Create Good Luck!
There's a science to it. Richard Wiseman studies lucky people for his book Luck Factor, and breaks down what they do right. Certain personality types are luckier because they behave in a way that offers the chance for good opportunities. By being more outgoing, open to new ideas, following the feeling that something is true, and being optimistic, lucky people create possibilities.
Does applying these principles to your life actually work? Wiseman created a “l(fā)uck school” to test the ideas—and it was a success. In total, 80 percent of the people who attended Luck School said that their luck had increased.
A. Spend enough time to improve your weakness.
B. Achievement requires focus.
C. On average, these people reported that their luck had increased by more than 40 percent.
D. They never stop working and they never lose a minute.
E. Busy people are more likely to be lucky.
F. Know What You Are!
G. Luck isn't magical.

【答案】D;B;F;G;C
【解析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,介紹了成功人士身上存在的三個(gè)共同特點(diǎn):Busy! Busy! Just Say No! Create Good Luck!
(1)考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)下文中的“that many of them work 60 to 65 hours per week—which translates into at least six 10-hour days.”可知很多成功人士每周工作60-65小時(shí),一天至少工作10小時(shí)。說(shuō)明他們幾乎一直在工作,從不懈怠。故D項(xiàng)正確。
(2)考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)下文“And focus means saying ’no‘ to a lot of distractions (分神).”可知focus就是拒絕很多分神的事情,也就是說(shuō)要聚焦于自己要做的事情。所以B項(xiàng)“Achievement requires focus.”符合上下文串聯(lián)。
(3)考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù) 下文“Ignore your weaknesses and keep improving your strengths.”忽略自己的弱點(diǎn)并不斷提升自己的優(yōu)勢(shì)。也就是說(shuō)成功人士要對(duì)自己有清楚的了解。故F項(xiàng)為本段中心思想。
(4)考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)下文“There's a science to it.”可知運(yùn)氣并不是偶然的,在運(yùn)氣里有必然存在的科學(xué)依據(jù)。故G項(xiàng)“Luck isn't magical.”符合本段中心思想。
(5)考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)上文“In total, 80 percent of the people who attended Luck School said that their luck had increased.”可知進(jìn)入Luck學(xué)校中很多人通過(guò)個(gè)人努力最后都取得了很好的運(yùn)氣。故C項(xiàng)說(shuō)法正確。

Language and literacy (讀寫(xiě)能力) are among humans' greatest inventions. Evolving(演變)over the course of human history, languages are a reflection of our cultural and societal attitudes. Today, surrounded(包圍)by social media, television, movies, and, of course, books, the ability to read and write is important to expressing one's feelings. Most humans acquire language in early childhood and speak fluently when they are about three years old, but our continued relationship with language gives shape and meaning to our lives.
Take it slow. Many readers feel that they read too slowly, especially compared with others.The best readers are flexible(靈活的)— slowing down when needed — and always have a dictionary at hand.
Read aloud. When humans first began reading written words, it was unusual to read in silence.Try listening to the author reading their own work — you'll be surprised to find how clearly it comes through on the page.
Write. Writing and reading go hand-in-hand: how and what you read affects how and what you write, and the best readers often make the best writers. But while much can be learned from close, repeated readings, there are many pleasures to language that can only be experienced through the practice of writing.
Tell your friends. All of the literature is essentially communication from an individual's inner voice to an audience.It's a good way to see the world from someone else's eyes and, in the process, carefully examine your own reaction to what you're reading.
A. But the truth is that the faster you read, the less likely you are to understand fully what you're reading.
B. Can you remember the first piece of writing that transported you to another world?
C. There is something magical about sharing books with friends or a book club.
D. Try writing every day for a month, and you will never read the same again.
E. Reading out loud is one of the best ways to improve your reading ability.
F. Here are 4 ways to become a better reader.
G. In no time, you'll be appreciating novels like fine wine.
