But nowadays companies aren’t managing their knowledge workers’ careers. Rather, we must each be our own chief executive officer. Only when you operate from a combination of your strengths and self-knowledge can you achieve true and lasting excellence.To build a life of excellence, begin by asking yourself these questions: “What Are My Strengths?”To accurately identify your strengths, use feedback analysis. Every time you make a key decision, write down the outcome you expect. Several months later, compare the actual results with your expected results. Look for patterns in what you are seeing: What results are you skilled at generating? What unproductive habits are preventing you from creating the outcomes you desire? In identifying opportunities for improvement, don’t waste time developing skill areas where you have little competence. Instead, concentrate on and build on your strengths.“What Are My Values?”What are your ethics(道德标准)? What do you see as your most important responsibilities for living a worthy, ethical life? Do your organization’s ethics resonate(共鸣) with your own values? If not, your career will be likely to be marked by frustration and poor performance.“Where Do I Belong?”Consider your strengths, preferred work style, and values. Based on these qualities, what kind of work environment would you fit it best? Find the perfect fit, and you’ll transform yourself from a merely acceptable employee into a star performer.“What Can I Contribute?”In earlier eras, companies told businesspeople what their contribution should be. Today, you have choices. To decide how you can best improve your organization’s performance, first ask what the situation requires. Based on your strengths, work style, and values, how might you make the greatest contribution to your organization’s efforts?41. The following steps are all the ways to find and improve your strengths EXCEPT_________.A. writing down your expectationsB. comparing the actual resultsC. finding out your advantagesD. developing your disadvantages42. Which of the following comments is NOT true?A. People should find results they are skilled at generating.B. Processing information by hearing others discuss is the most effective way of working.C. People who work in one team should have similar ethics.D. The fit working environment can help the workers work more efficiently.43. What can lead to a life of excellence?A. Self-pity and powers.B. Ambition and smarts.C. Self-awareness and strengths.D. Motives and self-knowledge.44. How might you make the greatest contribution to your organization’s efforts?A. Do what is needed.B. Identify your own strengths.C. Work in your own way.D. Obey the companies’ rules.BVincent Van Gogh was not always an artist. In fact, he wanted to be a church minister but was。

AAustralians really know how to have a good time. Any type of hobby that you can think of can be found in Australia. The following are four top Australian pastimes.FishingFishing is probably one of the most popular free-time activities in Australia and many people love spending their free time waiting at the end of a rod for a fish to bite on their line. There is free public access to almost all beaches，canals and coasts，which means there are plenty of great places to fish.SurfingAnother popular pastime of the Australians is surfing. Australia has a lot of beautiful surf spots，especially in Queensland. Queensland has some of the best surf beaches in the country such as Noosa Heads，Stradbroke Island，and Burleigh Heads，with the Gold Coast being the best known.BoatingWhat else does an Australian do for fun on the weekend？They might go for a ride on their boat！Plenty of Australians live on the coast and are boat owners. Boat owners might take their craft out to go fishing，or they might just want to sail around the waters slowly.BarbecuesAustralians will also typically host barbecues with their friends and family. They really know how to barbecue. The standard of meat that is cooked and the quality of the cooking is second to none. With New Zealand being so close，the lamb is fresh and absolutely remarkable. But the lamb is not all that is cooked. Any one barbecue in Australia can expect upwards of 7 types of meat，from shrimps （?r）to kangaroos.21. Which of the following surf spots is the most famous in Queensland？A. Noosa Heads.B. the Gold Coast.C. Burleigh Heads.D. Stradbroke Island.22. What can we infer from the last paragraph？A. Tourists can hire boats to go for a ride.B. Tourists prefer fishing to other pastimes.C. The lamb is imported from New Zealand.D. People in New Zealand have better cooking skills.23. What are most of the four top Australian pastimes related to？A. Water.B. Sightseeing.C. Food.D. Deserts.BIt’s a rainy，cold winter afternoon. The boys are playing in their rooms，so it’s the perfect time to do some baking，just enjoying the peaceful moment as I knead（揉）bread dough（生面团）. Suddenly，there is the sound of shouting，tears， a door slam，followed one of them calling，“Mom！He hurt me！”and footsteps running up the stairs. I sigh. My younger son is standing in front of me in tears. I go to hug him as my elder son comes up too，ready to defend his position. All hope of some quiet time has disappeared，but I just don’t feel like playing judge today.“So，who wants to help me bake some bread？”I ask brightly，ignoring their angry looks at not being able to tell me their tales of bitterness. No takers.“Bread is boring，”Tristan finally admits.“Okay，what would you like to make？”I ask.“Chocolate！”Sawyer yells，breaking free of my embrace.“Chocolate chip cookies！”Tristan agrees happily.As I watch Sawyer practice breaking eggs and Tristan reading on his own and patiently instructing his brother on how to measure brown sugar and see their excitement as they use the mixer to grind oats，I know there’s nothing else I’d rather be doing.The kitchen is a disaster. There is egg juice on the counter，flour on the floor，and a mountain of dishes to clean up. But peering through the mess are two happy faces―covered in chocolate，of course，but，smiling ear to ear---and the mess，and their previous fight，is forgotten.As we close the curtains，we sit together on the sofa，and dig into the big plate of cookies，fresh from the oven，baked with love and more than a dash of silliness.24. Why did the writer sigh？A. Her two sons fought again.B. She couldn’t do any baking.C. She had to play with naughty sons.D. Rain ruined a good winter afternoon.25. Why do the writer’s two sons look angry？A. They have to do some houseworkB. They can’t play referee todayC. They have no chance to complainD. They consider themselves treated unfairly26. While baking chocolate，the two boys ______.A. asked the writer to go for a restB. got along well with each otherC. did everything as the writer askedD. planned everything carefully in advance27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text？A. Everything Is a DisasterB. Baking Is TerribleC. Sons Can CookD. Chocolate Cookies End a FightCWhat is the most common cause for people in the UK to ask for leave due to illness？The answer is not the common cold or flu，but back pain. Back pain affects one in three British adults，costs the country over 5 billion pounds every year and is very difficult to treat. But now Britain's National Health Service（NHS）will be offering a new solution：acupuncture. The ancient Chinese needle treatment has been around in the UK for many years，but this is the first time it has been officially approved by the NHS. Traditionally，doctorsin the UK have advised back pain sufferers to stay active，do stretching exercises and take painkillers when necessary. In more serious cases some people are given X-ray treatment or injections with medicines.However，there is evidence that acupuncture may be more effective than expensive X-rays or injections，so patients who have been suffering for over six weeks should be given a choice. As an alternative to acupuncture，patients will be able to choose either a course of spinal manipulation（脊柱推拿），or a series of special exercise sessions. In the UK，acupuncture is regarded as an aiding treatment，which means medical procedure hasn’t experienced serious experiments by which scientists prove some treatments work. While many experts have welcomed the policy to make acupuncture available on the NHS，some are still skeptical about its effectiveness.Research from the US earlier this month found that similar acupuncture using toothpicks（牙签）which do not stick into the skin could be as good as using real needles. So while some are yet to be convinced，back pain sufferers will be hoping that acupuncture helps get them feeling healthy again.28. According to the passage，which is the best way to treat back pain？A. To stay active.B. To be acupunctured.C. To do stretching exercisesD. To take X-ray treatment or injections.29. Why are some people still doubtful about the effectiveness of acupuncture？A. Because they have other choices.B. Because acupuncture is just an aiding treatment.C. Because using toothpicks is as good as using real needles.D. Because acupuncture hasn’t been tested by scientists strictly.30. What does the author want to prove in the last paragraph？A. Acupuncture can be an effective treatment for back pain.B. Toothpicks is a useful tool for acupuncture.C. Needles are no better than toothpicks.D. Toothpicks will take place of needles in the future.31. What does the passage mainly talk about？A. The magic needles.B. Acupuncture in the UK.C. The ways to treat back pain.D. The reasons for people to ask for leave.DYoung children often“read”picture books. They’re attracted by the colorful scenery and the realistic characters that contribute to fascinating plots.Unfortunately，some children can’t use these resources，even if they do know how to read. Take three-year old Elodie Bateson，for example. Elodie was born with under-developed eyes and has retinal detachments（?网膜脱落），making her visually impaired. It is because of people like Elodie that Tom Yeh，head of the Tactile Picture Books Project，has started printing 3D books，so they can feel the illustrations in picture books.The first book Tom Yeh printed was Goodnight Moon，a popular children’s book about a rabbit going to sleep and wishing good night to his surroundings. In the 3D version of this book，children can feel each thing that the rabbit says good night to，whether it is a cow jumping over the moon，a balloon，or a dollhouse.Generally，when children grow older，they read by using Braille，a language that was invented by Louis Braille in 1824. It uses different patterns of raised dots representing differentletters. Readers can then feel the dots and mentally translate the patterns they feel into words. The only problem is that many blind children do not start learning Braille until they are about six years old.Another reason why 3D printed books are such a valuable resource is that children don’t have to know how to read to understand them. However，without these，visually impaired kids are losing six developmental years vital to their growth since they can’t take advantage of picture books.When 3D picture books are printed，plastic is layered（分层放置）repeatedly over a single shape：the shape of the illustration. These raised pictures created through layered plastic serve as substitutes for the Braille letters that little children have no knowledge of.32. What does the underlined word“impaired”in paragraph2 mean？A. Unmatched.B. Disappeared.C. Defeated.D. Damaged.33. What can we know about Braille from Paragraph 5？A. The blind at any age can read by using Braille.B. Most people can translate Braille into words.C. Blind kids begin learning Braille at about six years old.D. Braille uses similar patterns of raised dots to stand for different letters.34. We can know that the illustrations in 3D books are raised ______.A. dotsB. picturesC. lettersD. plastic35. What is the aim of the Tactile Picture Books Project？A. To teach the blind children Braille.B. To encourage kids to read books.C. To cure visually impaired children.D. To help the blind children read picture books.第二? （共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

一轮复习英语(广东专用)模拟试题09Ⅰ.阅读理解In the animal kingdom，weekness can bring about aggression in other animals.This sometimes happens with humans also.But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people.I see it every day when people hold doors for me，pour cream into my coffee，or help me to put on my coat.And I have discovered that it makes them happy.From my wheelchair experience，I see the best in people，but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily.They don't get to see this soft side of others.Often we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness，which includes a lot of pretending.But only when we stop pretending we're brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that's in them.Last month，when I was driving home on a busy highway，I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual.People behind me began to get impatient and angry，with some speeding up alongside me，horning(按喇叭)or even shouting at me.At that moment，I decided to do something I had never done in twenty-four years of driving.I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.No more angry shouts and no more horns!When I put on my flashlights，I was saying to the other drivers，“I have a problem here.I am weak and doing the best I can.”And everyone understood.Several times，I saw drivers who wanted to pass.They couldn't get around me because of the stream of passing traffic.But instead of getting impatient and angry，they waited，knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don't feel that way.But those are few and far between.More often，it would be better if we don't pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we're scared.【语篇解读】在动物王国里，弱者会遭到袭击。

Ⅰ.阅读理解(2017·辽宁本溪高级中学高三入学测试)When Danny Wallace,26，got bored，he put an ad on the World Wide Web reading simply，“Join Me. Send a passport photo.” A year and a half later his east London flat is the headquarters for a global internet­based “club” whose members carry out good deeds for strangers every Friday.It's not common for people in London to talk to strangers. If you see someone struggling with something，part of the brain goes “I want to help”. But the trained part of the brain says，“They will think you are mad or going to mug them”，so you walk away.Join Me now has about 3,000 members around the world who do an act of kindness every Friday. For example，I'm usually out on Friday so I go for one of the standard acts—the unexpected cup of coffee. You might be sitting in a cafe and see an old man in the corner drinking coffee or tea，and you walk up with another cup of whatever they are drinking，and say，“I've bought you a coffee” and walk away. It's a pleasure to see the look of surprise on their faces. There can be some suspicion，but I think that was mostly in the early days when I didn't know how to do it properly. I would walk up quite nervously like I was doing something wrong and I didn't know when to leave. In the end，I learned through trial and error. Sometimes it worked，and other times it didn't. I discovered that you have to walk up with confidence and humour and not “get in their faces”. You say，“This is for you”，then you go. It's hit-and-run kindness. And there is no point in doing it half-heartedly. You've got to do it because you really mean it.Join Me is without geographical boundaries，but there are quite a few members in London，and such stories about things happen on the underground or on the buses. One lady got on the bus and put a ￡10 note down and said，“That's for me and the next nine people.” So at every stop，anyone who got on was told it was paid for. A lot of people were doing this sort of thing anyway. For them it's an excuse or reason to do something nice for a complete stranger，and it gives them the confidence to walk up and start chatting.语篇导读文章简述了公益组织“Join Me”的成立和发展，介绍了作者作为成员之一，每周五做一件善事的经历，最后说明了这一组织存在的意义。
