A
Every one of us has unique gifts and talents.Our success in life depends on how much we believe in ourselves and trust our own talents.What education does is that it provides us with the opportunity to unleash our inborn(天生的)talents and let them grow freely，while providing us with the skills of thinking and solving problems on our https://www.doczj.com/doc/c45112903.html,cation plays a key role in determining our potential for achieving success.
High Educational Qualifications Provide Better Job Oppo rtunities
Specialized knowledge gained through higher education opens opportunities in the form of well paying jobs.While higher education may not guarantee success，it certainly puts you in a position to work with the best in the field and gain valuable experience，which helps you in the long term pursuit(追求)of professional success.So graduation through college and working hard to get through graduate school are of great importance.
Education Provides the Necessary Skill Set to Succeed
Education that enables individuals to succeed is not just the formal kind.The direct education that one gains through hands-on(实际操作的)experience and working with the masters in a field，that goes beyond purely bookish knowledge，prepares you for success.Real education begins when you start applying what you learned
through formal education to solve real world problems.Disci pline(自制力)，perseverance and ability to apply oneself pave the path to success.
Education Provides Access to the Vast Store of Hu-man Knowledge
Just being able to rea d and write provides you with access to the vast store of human knowledge in the form of books，which is the combined wisdom of ages.A man benefits from the path shown by the great masters of any field by acces sing this knowledge store.Learning knowledge to gain wisdom is the final aim of education.Great minds like Newton have acknowledged the contributions of their predecessors(前辈) which contributed to their success.Standing on the shoulders of great minds who made great contributions to human knowledge，we can see further than they did.

1．What does the underlined word“unleash”in Para.1 mean?
A．Release. B．Find.
C．Grow. D．Form.

答案：A
2．According to the passage，higher education ______.
A．always brings one high salaries
B．is sure to make a person successful
C．contributes to a person’s rapid success
D．offers one a higher development platform
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“While higher education may not guarantee success，it certainly puts you in a position to work with the best in the field and gain valuable experience，which helps you in the long term pursuit of professional success.”可知，虽然高等教育不能保证一个人获得成功，但它一定会使你与某一领域中最出色的人一起工作并获得宝贵的经验，从长远来说这会对你的职业成功有帮助。由此可知高等教育为人们提供了一个更高的发展平台。
答案：D

解析：主旨大意题。文本通过三个方面阐述了为什么教育是成功的关键。
答案：B
B
A firm handshake could be a sign of a longer life expectancy(预期寿命)，according to British researchers.Scientists at the Medical Research Council found that elderly people who could still give a firm handshake and walk at a quick pace were likely to outlive their slower peers.
They found simple measures of physical capability like shaking hands，walking，getting up from a chair and balancing on one leg were related to the life expectancy，even after accounting for age，sex and body size.The study is the first to provide a comprehensive(综合的)view of the existing data from 33 studies.“These measures have been used in population-based research for quite a long time，”said Rachel Cooper of the Medical Resear ch Council’s Unit for Lifelong Health and Aging.“They may be useful indicators for subsequent health.”
Cooper，whose study appears in the British Medical Journal，said more studies are needed to clarify whether the measures would be helpful to doctors as a screening tool.“I wouldn’t suggest that we roll them out into clinical practice tomorrow，but it is possible that they could be used in the future，”she told the media.
The researchers examined 33 studies involving tens of thousands of people，most of whom were aged over 60 but living in the community rather than in hospital or care homes.The researchers found that those with the strongest hand grasps tended to live longer than those with weak grips.The death rate over the period of the
studies for people with weak handshakes was 67 percent higher than for people with a firm grip.
The slowest walkers were nearly three times more likely to die during the study period than swifter walkers.The people who were slowest to get up from a chair had about double the death rate compared to the q uick risers.
“Those people in the general population who have higher physical capability levels are likely to live longer，”Cooper said.
语篇解读：英国研究人员称，体能更强的人长寿的可能性更大。
5．Which of the following are measures of physical capability according to the passage?
a．shaking hands b．balancing c．getting up d．weight lifting e．walking A．a，b，c，e B．a，c，d，e
C．b，c，d，e D．a，b，d，e
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段．..like shaking hands，walking，getting up from a chair and balancing on one leg were related to the life expectancy可知，答案为A。
答案：A
6．What can be inferred from the passage?
A．People who walk quickly and shake hands firmly have a lower death rate.
B．People with the strongest hand grasp are mo re outgoing.
C．Most of the people who received the study live in the community.
D．People who always sit are more likely to die than those who stand.
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段The death rate over the period of the studies for people with weak handshakes was 67 percent higher和第五段The slowest walkers were nearly three ti mes more likely to die...可推断，答案为A。
答案：A
7．In which part of a newspaper would you most probably find this passage?

It is the ability to recognize a 1 in number. Human beings are born with this ability. 2 ，experiments show that many animals are, too.For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one,the bird will not 3 .However,if you remove two, the bird 4 leaves. This means that the bird knows the 5 between two and three. Another interesting experiment showed a bird's 6 number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of a crow(乌鸦)that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not 7 until the man left the tower. The man had an 8 .He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they did not 9 the bird.The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was 10 with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were 11 .It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were 12 able to fool the crow. How good is a human's number sense? It's not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a 13 group.But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are 14 fooled. It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world,and that our human 15 is not much better than a crow's. 1.A. rise B. pattern C. change D. trend 2.A.

2013年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试（广东卷）英语 第一节完型填空 Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a 1 in number. Human beings are born with this ability. 2 , Experiments show that many animas are, too. For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not 3 . However, if you remove two, the bird 4 leaves. This means that the bird knows the 5 between two and three. Another interesting experiment showed a bird’s 6 number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of a crow(乌鸦) that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not 7 until the man left the tower. The man had an 8 . He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they did not 9 the bird. The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was 10 with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were 11 . It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were 12 able to fool the crow. How good is a human’s number sense? It’s not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a 13 group. But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are 14 fooled. It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human 15 is not much better than a crow’s. 1. A. rise B. pattern C. change D. trend 2. A.

He was cooking some delicious food in the kitchen. Suddenly, he 16 (find) that he had run out of salt. So Nick called to his son, “Go to the village and buy some salt, but pay a fair price for it: neither too much 17 too little.” His son looked surprised. “I can understand why shouldn’t pay too much, Father, but if I can pay less, 18 not save a bit of money?” “That would be a very 19 (reason) thing to do in a big city, but it could destroy a small village like ours,” Nick said. Nick’s guest, 20 had heard their conversation, asked why they should not buy salt more cheaply if they could. Nick replied, “The only reason a man would sell salt 21 a lower price would be because he was desperate for money. And anyone who took advantage of that situation would be showing a lack of respect 22 the sweat and struggle of the man who worked very hard to produce it.” “But such a small thing couldn’t 23 (possible) destroy a village.” “In the beginning, there was only 24 very small amount of unfairness in the world, but everyone added a little, always 25 (think) that it was only small and not very important, and look where we have ended up today.” 第三节阅读理解 A． Imagination and fantasy can play an important role in achieving the things we fear. Children know this very well. Fred Epstein, in his book I Make It to Five, tells a story he heard from one of his friends about Tom, a four-year-old boy with a cancer in his back bone. He came through several operations and a lot of pain by mastering his imagination. Tom loved to pretend, and he particularly loved to play superheroes. Dr. Epstein explained that it was actually a brilliant way for his young mind to handle the terrifying and painful life he led. The day before his third trip to the operating room, Tom was terribly afraid. “Maybe I could go as Superman,”he whispered to his mom. Hearing this, the mother hesitated for while. She has avoided buying the expensive costume(戏装), but finally she agreed. The next day Tom appeared as the powerful Superman, showing off through the hospital halls and coolly waving his hand
