10、 paintinga portrait was accepted at the Salon of 1840, Millet returned to Cherbourg to begin a career as a portrait painter. However, the following year he married Pauline-Virginie Ono, and they moved to Paris. After being refused at the Salon of 1843 and Paulines death, Millet returned again to Che
11、rbourg. In 1845, Millet moved to Le Harvre where he painted portraits for several months, before moving back to Paris. It was in Paris in the middle 1840s that Millet made friends with many famous artists who had great influences on him. Then he gradually revolutionized his painting style and create
12、d his own one. This is the most well known of Millets paintings, The Gleaners (拾穗者) , in which poor women are removing the bits of grain left in the fields following the harvest. A warm golden light suggests something holy in this daily scene where the struggle to survive takes place. During his yea
13、rs of studies, Millet thought about how to best tell the sense of repetition and tiredness in the peasants daily lives. Lines trace over each womans back to the ground and then back up again and again which means their hard labor. Along the horizon, the setting sun outlines the farm with its plentif
14、ul stacks of grain, in contrast to the large shadowy figures in the foreground(前景). The dark dresses of the gleaners cut strong forms against the golden field, giving each woman a noble strength. In 1857, he presented the painting The Gleaners to the Salon to an unfriendly public.（分数：10.00）(1).The p
15、assage mainly tells us_.（分数：2.00）A.how Millet gained his fameB.one of Millets paintings, The GleanersC.how Millet became a portrait painterD.Millets life experience and The Gleaners(2).What does the warm golden light in the painting imply?（分数：2.00）A.Poor women and children are very hard-working.B.Pe

19、e.Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. Im not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances dont come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family whil
20、e others are born with great intelligence, and thats just the reality of how life is. However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours stu
21、dying and practising. To become great at certain things, itll require even more time, time that most people wont put in. This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you dont enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make y
22、ou quit well before you ever become good at it. When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. Its sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent,
23、 but thinking that way does you no good, and theres huge chance that youre wrong anyway. Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If youre not willing to put in the time and work, dont e
24、xpect to receive any rewards.

26、akes one feel painB.one tends to enjoy his workC.one gives up his work easilyD.it takes a lot of time to succeed(4).What can we infer from Paragraph 4?（分数：2.00）A.Successful people like to show their great skills.B.People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.C.People need to achieve success at th
27、e cost of life.D.It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.(5).What is the main theme of the passage?（分数：2.00）A.Having a goal is vital to success.B.Being good is different from being great.C.One cannot succeed without time and practice.D.Luck, talent and family help to achieve success.A

29、fects their lives. Ten years ago, no one thought that using computers could become compulsive behavior that could affect the social and physical life of computer users. This obsessional behavior has affected teenagers and college students. They are likely to log on computers and spend long hours at
30、different websites. They become hooked on computers and gradually their social and school life is affected by this situation. They spend all free time surfing and dont concentrate on homework, so this addiction influences their grades and success at school. Because they can find everything on the we
31、bsites, they hang out there. Moreover, this addiction to websites influences their social life. They spend more time in front of computers than with their friends. The relation with their friends changes. The virtual life becomes more important than their real life. They have a new language that the
32、y speak in the chat rooms and it causes cultural changes in society. Because of the change in their behavior, they begin to isolate themselves from the society and live with their virtual friends. They share their emotions and feelings with friends who they have never met in their life. Although the
33、y feel confident on the computer, they are not confident with real life friends they have known all their life. It is a problem for the future. This addictive behavior is beginning to affect all the world.（分数：10.00）(1).The main idea of the passage is about_.（分数：2.00）A.the cause of weboholismB.the ad

37、 our daily lives, and although we may take friendship for granted, we often dont clearly understand how we make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only very few. In all the cases of friendly relationship, two people like one another and enjoy being tog
38、ether, but beyond that, the degree of intimacy (亲密) between them and the reasons for their shared interest vary enormously. As we get to know people, we take into account things like age, race, economic condition, social position, and intelligence. Although these factors are not of major importance,
39、 it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and background. Some friendly relationship can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, to have attitudes and interests is commonthey often talk about
40、“ being on the same wavelength “. It generally takes time to reach this point. And the more intimately involved people become, the more they rely on one another. People want to do friends favors and hate to break a promise. Equally, friends have to learn to put up with annoying habits and to tolerat
41、e differences of opinions. In contrast with marriage, there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the association between two people.
