1.Qualities of being wise
Unless you think you're the smartest,who doesn't want to be smarter?(71)F
James Gardner has got me an answer on Quora about whether someone's smart or not.Here are the signs of smart people:
(72)CThere is the gift of a broad mind,constantly fed with the stimulant (興奮劑) of being interested in what everyone else is doing.
They probably do social media.Not always,but probably.It is not only another chance to listen,but one they use to ensure they can feed their brains with things they otherwise wouldn't have come across.
They know they are usually the smartest person in the room,but they don't spend their time dwelling on that.(73)G
If they are managers,they will make every effort to get people smarter,more connected and more popular than them in their teams.(74)E They also make sure that their smart people get to look smarter than them for the same reason.
They never,ever,under any circumstances,make you look stupid,even though it would be easy to do so.They've learnt through bitter experience that the only thing that happens when you make someone look bad is you look bad yourself.
(75)A If you want to be the smart one,let me give you this extra advice from Steve Jobs"Stay hungry.Stay foolish."

A.Now you should know who the smart people are.
B.Even when things go very badly wrong,they'll be smiling.
C.They know lots of things other than what they're specialized in.
D.However,being smart is not easy,because one has to possess lots of qualities.
E.They're not threatened because they know that smartness is working together.
F.Of course I want to be smarter too,so I try to find out who is the real smart guy that maybe I can learn from.
G.Instead,they take it as a personal challenge to see if they can make everyone else the smartest person in the room too.

分析 本文描述了聰明人的資質(zhì)問題.如:他們不會說太多,因?yàn)樗麄冎蓝嗦牪拍茏兟斆;除去專業(yè)知識之外,他們知道的很多;如果他們是經(jīng)理級別的人物,他們會努力讓別人在整個團(tuán)隊(duì)中看上去比他們還要聰明、親密和受歡迎.最后以喬幫主那句經(jīng)典的名言結(jié)束:"求知若饑,虛心若愚".

解答 71.F   考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力.由第一句Unless you think you're the smartest,who doesn't want to be smarter?可知,接下來要敘述的是我個人的想法;故選F.
72.C   考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力.由上一段的最后一句Here are the signs of smart people:可知,下面的內(nèi)容就是介紹的聰明人的資質(zhì);They know lots of things other than what they're specialized in(除去專業(yè)知識之外,他們知道的很多.).就是本段要描述的要點(diǎn),故選C.
73.G  考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力.這段是說聰明人的第二個資質(zhì):他們知道自己是屋子里最聰明的人,但不會花時間去沾沾自喜.既然不會沾沾自喜,那么他們要怎么辦呢?Instead they take it as a personal challenge to see if they can make everyone else the smartest person in the room too.回答了這個問題,也與描述的內(nèi)容相吻合;故選G.
74.E 考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力.前面一句是說:如果他們是經(jīng)理級別的人物,他們會努力讓別人在整個團(tuán)隊(duì)中看上去比他們還要聰明、親密和受歡迎.他們這樣做的原因是They're not threatened because they know that smartness is working together.故選E.
75.A 考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力.通過以上的總結(jié),最后得出結(jié)論:A.Now you should know who the smart people are.故選A.

點(diǎn)評 本文屬于七選五閱讀理解,做此類題要在理解文章整體的基礎(chǔ)上,補(bǔ)全所缺的部分.針對這個特點(diǎn),解答時要注意語境和上下文的聯(lián)系,同時還要注意文章的寫作方法和結(jié)構(gòu).尤其要留心選項(xiàng)中的信息詞(空格前后句子中與選項(xiàng)中相同或相近的詞),站在作者的寫作立場,選出最符合作者原意的句子.

The Power of V
Birds of a feather may flock together,but why they fly together in V formations has never been known for certain.
Now,with the help of 14 northern bald ibises (歐洲禿鷹) equipped with(41)Dsensors on a 600-mile migration from Austria to Italy,researchers are suggesting that the explanation is one that was long (42)Cbut never proved:the formations helps the birds conserve energy.
Reporting in the (43)GNature,the scientists write that the ibises(44)Athemselves in spots that were aerodynamically optimal (空氣動力學(xué)上最佳的)-allowing them to take advantage of swirls of upward-moving air(45)Fby the wings of the bird ahead.Since the lead bird got no lift advantage,the ibises regularly switched leaders.
"We've been wondering for years whether flapping birds can save energy by following each other in the right way,"said Geiffrey Spedding,a researcher at the University of Southern California,who was not involved in the study."This word answers that question,and the answer is yes."
The scientists,led by Jim Usherwood of the Royal Veterinary College in England,said a major (46)Ewas obtaining the data.The ibises hatched at Zoo Vienna in March 2011 and (47)Jas part of a conservation project aimed at reintroducing the (48)Kendangered species to its natural range in Europe.
Some of the study's authors served as human foster parents,taking the young birds on training flights in Salzburg,Austria.The humans rode in a paraplane,a type of lightweight aircraft,and the birds followed.Eventually,the foster parents taught the birds their 600-mile migration route from Salzburg to Orbetello,Italy,by flying alongside them.
The birds wore custom-made data loggers that allowed the researchers to track flapping,speed and direction.Weighing less than an ounce,the devices included a memory card and a GPS unit,among other things.It is(49)Ito about one foot and refreshes five times per second-the(50)Bnecessary to track the birds'positions in relation to one another.
The new study does not say how much energy the ibises saved through the V formation,but small gains could be useful over long migrations,experts say.
