David McConnell sold books door-to-door. Housewives were not interested in the books and frequently slammed the door (关门,拒绝) in McConnell's face after he had a chance to make his sale. Instead of being discouraging, McConnell decided to give off a free gift, a small vial (小瓶) of perfume, by which he made himself. He soon discovered that the women prefer the perfume to the books. He stopped selling books and creating his own company Avon, which is success.

When you do nothing, you learn nothing. And when you try and fail, you learn what doesn't work. That puts you one step close to what will work. It is not failure itself but the attitude we have toward it matters.

 

1. after改为before 2. discouraging改为discouraged 3. off改为away 4. 去掉by 5. prefer改为preferred 6. creating改为created 7. success之前加a或success改为successful 8. And when改为But when 9. close改为closer 10. matters之前加that 【解析】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,用McConnell卖书时屡吃闭门羹却意外发现女人更喜欢香水,从而建立了自己的化妆品公司并取得成功的故事告诉我们不要害怕失败,要勇于尝试。 第一处:考查连词。句意:在他推销之前,家庭主妇们就狠狠地关上门。此处表示“在……之前”,故after改为before。 第二处:考查形容词。句意:McConnell没有气馁,而是决定送给她们免费的礼物——他自己制作的一小瓶香水。ing结尾的形容词修饰物,表示“令人……的”,ed结尾的形容词修饰人,表示“感到……的”,故discouraging改为discouraged。 第三处:考查动词短语。句意参考上题解析,give off表示“发出(光)”,give away表示“赠送、分发”,故off改为away。 第四处:考查定语从句。句意参考上题解析,关系词which在非限定性定语从句中作 made的宾语,by是多余的,故去掉by。 第五处:考查时态。句意:他很快就发现女人喜欢香水胜过书。“discovered”表明应该用一般过去时,故prefer改为preferred。 第六处:考查时态。句意:他停止卖书,创建了自己的公司雅芳并取得了成功。此处与stopped并列作谓语,而不是作stopped的宾语,应该用一般过去时,故creating改为created。 第七处:考查冠词或形容词。句意参考上题解析,success表示“成功的事”时是可数名词,也可以用形容词作表语,故success之前加a或success改为successful。 第八处:考查连词。句意:当你什么都不做时,你什么也学不到,但当你尝试并且失败时,你会学到什么是行不通的。前后是转折而非并列关系,故when前的And改为But。 第九处:考查形容词比较级。句意:这使你离成功更近了一步。此处表示“更近”,故close改为closer。 第十处:考查强调句型。句意:重要的不是失败本身,而是我们对待失败的态度。此处为强调句型,其结构为:it is+被强调部分+that+其余部分,故matters之前加that。

Ambition (志向,抱负) is a necessary quality in life. It is the force which drives us on to use whatever talent we have got1., these talents will not be used for our own and other's benefit. Without ambition we are just jellyfish that flop though life. We only react to events: we don't try to control them.

2., First of all, it can be unrealistic. We may not be able to see the limits of our own abilities, so we do ambitious things that are completely beyond us. Some people can see our good qualities and our limitations objectively. They may tell us that we haven't the ability We refuse to take their evaluation. We keep on trying. Many years and many disappointments later we are forced to accept their judgment. But what a waste of time our ill-founded ambition has caused us!

Besides, our ambition can be too concentrated. We devote our attention to one narrow aim, such as getting distinctions in our science subjects. Everything that may draw us away from this aim is cutout of our lives. In the end we get our distinctions. But we are isolated beings who only care about particular examination. And we probably won't make good scientists 3..

And our ambition can be limited to lifeless objectives4. Persons who feel inferior try to make up by seeking the respect of others through owning these artificial signs of worth.

5. But, like all blind forces, it must be directed if not to cause disaster.

A. Still, ambition can have several disadvantages

B. Because our ambition may make us among selfish people

C. Unless we have got some degree of ambition.

D. Since we don't have the breadth of view necessary for greater success

E. Ambition is necessary in the lives of individuals

F. As long as tightly controlled by the head and the heart

G. We want to gain money, or power, or membership of some circles

Scene one: Michael flies in.

When he was high enough, Michael looked down. He could see the van parked among the trees, but he couldn't see the gang. He started to fly towards the wall. He went through the details of the plan in his head. He had to wait until he heard the bell ring at ten. It took fifteen minutes there was nobody outside the building. That was when he had to fly in.

A minute later the bell rang and he saw the guards started to move away from their posts. He flew quickly over the wall and dropped down to the ground next to the building he had to enter. He spoke quietly into his microphone.

“I'm at the main door.”

‘Ok, Now press these keys on the number pad on the door. Ready? 7-8-5-0-7-9-9’.

'Ok. Done.’

'Now press the key that says “Enter”.'

Michael pressed the ‘Enter' key. He heard a click.

‘The door's open.’

‘Good. Now go and do everything that I told you to do. Call me again when you get out with the “Lion” envelope.'

Michael slowly pushed the door open. To his amazement, he saw a man in military uniform standing in the middle of the corridor. He was holding a large sign which said:

MICHAEL, DONT SAY SPEAK!

IT’S OK!

THE POLICE ARE HERE.

YOUCAN WAIT TOTHE FFIE.THE ALARMS ARE OFF.

The man smiled, and Michael smiled back. He worked down the corridor to the office, where there was a uniformed policeman. He held a sign which said:

MICHAEL DON’T SAY ANYTHING!

TAKE THE ENVELOPE OUT OF THE CUPBOARD.

THERES A TRACKING DEVICE IN IT .

THERE'S ANOTHER TRACKING DEVICE ON THE DESK.

PUT IT IN YOUR POCKET.

Michael found the envelope and put it in his pocket, together with toe the tracking device. He waved cheerfully at the policeman and walked out of the office and down the corridor. As he stepped out into the courtyard, he spoke into his   microphone, “I have got the Lion” envelop.

‘Good! ’ said Wilson. 'Now fly straightly back to us.'

He flapped his wings and flew up high to get above the lights. He knew he had to follow the plan so as not to make the men suspicious. As he flew over the wall, he started to feel scared again.

‘But why is he back with the criminals?' asked Sarah. ‘Isn't that dangerous?

We need to catch these people, Mrs. Broad, We need Michael's help. said Detective Riley.

‘Oh, dear!' said Sarah. ‘So he's not safe at all. You're going to use him to find those terrible people.’

Good news for people who have difficulty in remembering things. A memory technique invented by the ancient Greeks has recently been proved to be able to greatly improve ordinary people's memory ability. You may even become a memory champion if you practice hard enough.

This is according to a study published in the journal Neuron. Researchers fro

Radboud University Medical Center in the Netherlands found that memory champions aren't all that different to us. People with an average memory can greatly improve their memory ability by using what's known as the“ mind palace” method.

The method is the secret weapon (武器) of the fictional (虚构的) character Sherlock Holmes.

In order to do this, you need to picture a place you're familiar with, such as your living room. Then, you have to remember this place in as much detail as possible as this is your own mind palace.

Suppose you want to remember a shopping list. You can start by spreading out all the items around your living room in your mind. This means each item on your list is connected with a remembered place in your living room. You travel to that remembered place as you recall the list.

To explore the effects of this method on the brain, researchers gathered 51 participants with average memory levels and no previous memory training. After 40 days of daily 30-minute training sessions (一段时间), participants doubled the amount of words they could remember - they went from recalling an average of 26 words out of 72, to an impressive 62. Four months later, even without continued training, their recall performance remained high.

“Once you are familiar with these strategies and know how to apply them, you can keep your performance high without much further training,” Martin Dresler, assistant professor from Radboud University Medical Center, told the Daily Mail.

In addition, the training also affects the way our brain cells connect. After training, the way that the participants' brain cells connect began to be like those of memory champions compared to scans(扫描检查) taken before training. Researchers believe this could be responsible for their increased memory.

But what makes this research so fascinating is that it seems to prove that the talent to store things in your mind isn't down to genes. Dresler found there was no deference in brain structure between memory champions and normal people, which means memory champions are not born with different brains.

“They, without a single exception, trained for months and years using methods to achieve these high levels of performance,” Dresler told Science Daily.

It’s clear that more studies are needed to find out what's going on here, but the “mind palace” method might be your best bet to never forget an important name, date or appointment ever again.

1.The main purpose of the text is to_____

A. present a research on a memory improvement strategy

B. explore the secrets of memory champions

C. argue whether good memory is natural or trained

D. explain how a memory improvement strategy works.

2.Which of the following statements is TRUE about the “mind place” method?

A. The method became popular because of Sherlock Holmes.

B. People need to draw a familiar place on paper before using the method.

C. The effects of this method are likely to fade when the raining stops

D. The method relies on a connection with a familiar environment to remember things.

3.What would Marin Dresler probably agree with?

A. People's memory level has a lot to do with their brain structure.

B. Memory champions are often born with outstanding memory ability

C. Memory training could change the way our brain cells connect.

D. With continued training, everyone can develop into a memory champion.
