Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 45 Fourteen-year-old Richie Hawley had spent five years studyin

29、g violin at the Community School of Performing Arts in Los Angeles when he took part in a violin contest. Ninety-two young people were invited to the contest and Hawley came out first. The contest could have been the perfect setup for fear, worrying about mistakes, and trying to impress the judges.

30、But Hawley says “I did pretty well at staying calm. I couldnt be thinking about how many mistakes Id make-it would distract me from playing. “he says. “I dont even remember trying to impress people while I played. Its almost as if they werent there. I just wanted to make music.“ Hawley is a winner.

31、But he didnt become a winner by concentrating on winning. He did it by concentrating on playing well. “The important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part,“ said the founder of the modem Olympics, Pierre de Coubertin. “The important thing in life is not the triumph but the strugg

32、le. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.“ New research shows that Coubertins philosophy is exactly the path achievers take to win at lifes challenging games. A characteristic of high performers is their intense, pleasurable concentration on work, rather than on their

33、 competitors or future glory or money, says Dr. Charles Garfield, who has studied 1,500 achievers in business, science, sports, the arts, and professions. “They are interested in winning, but theyre more interested in self-development, testing their limits.“ One of the most surprising things about t

34、op performers is how many losses theyve had-and how much theyve learned from each. “Not one of the 1, 500 I studied defined losing as failing,“ Garfield says. “They kept calling their losses setbacks.“ A healthy attitude toward setbacks is essential to winning, experts agree. “The worst thing you ca

35、n do if youve had a setback is to let yourself get stuck in a prolonged depression. You should analyze carefully what went wrong, identify specific things you did right and give yourself credit for them.“ Garfield believes that most people dont give themselves enough praise. He even suggests keeping

36、 a diary of all the positive things youve done on the way to a goal. 46 Hawley won the contest because _. （ A） he tried his best to avoid making mistakes （ B） he cared much about the judges feelings （ C） he put all his mind to his performance （ D） he paid close attention to the people around 47 What

37、 is common among high performers is that they tend to give priority to _. （ A） glory （ B） wealth （ C） pleasure （ D） work 48 According to the passage, successful people concentrate on _. （ A） avoiding setbacks （ B） challenging their own limits （ C） defeating their opponents （ D） learning from others

38、49 It can be learned from the passage that top performers are not _. （ A） free of losses （ B） interested in winning （ C） accustomed to failures （ D） concerned about setbacks 50 The passage tells us that “praise“ in times of trouble _. （ A） helps people realize their goals （ B） helps people deal with

39、 their disappointment （ C） makes people regret about their past （ D） makes people forget their setbacks 50 When we think about happiness, we usually think of something extraordinary, a peak of great delight-and those peaks seem to get rarer the older we get. For a child, happiness has a magical qual

40、ity. I remember making hide outs in newly cut hay, playing cops and robbers in the woods, getting a speaking part in the school play. Of course, kids also experience lows, but their delight at such peaks of pleasure as winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved. For teenagers, or people unde

41、r twenty, the concept of happiness changes. Suddenly its conditional on such things as excitement, love, and popularity. I can still feel the agony of not being invited to a party that almost everyone else was going to. But I also recall the great happiness of being invited at another event to dance

42、 with a very handsome young man. In adulthood the things that bring great joy-birth, love, marriage-also bring responsibility and the risk of loss. Love may not last, sex isnt always good, and loved ones die. For adults, happiness is complicated. My dictionary explains happy as “lucky“ or “fortunate

43、“, but I think a better explanation of happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment“. The more we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are. Its easy to overlook the pleasure we get from loving and being loved, the company of friends, the freedom to love where we please, even good health. Nowadays, wit

44、h so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, we have turned happiness into one mode thing we “gotta have“. Were so self-conscious about our “right“ to it that its making us extremely unhappy. So we chase it and consider it to be the same as wealth and success, without noticing that

45、the people who have those things arent necessarily happier. While happiness may be more complex for us, the solution is the same as ever. Happiness isnt about what happens to us-its about how we perceive what happens to us. Its the ability to find positive for every negative, and view a setback as a

46、 challenge. Its not wishing for what we dont have, but enjoying what we do possess. 51 According to the author, happiness lies in the ability to _. （ A） feel the magic quality of pleasure （ B） experience delight at an old age （ C） think of something extraordinary （ D） enjoy what one has at the momen

47、t 52 According to the passage, a teenager looks at happiness mainly in terms of _. （ A） spiritual satisfaction （ B） social distinction （ C） material gains （ D） academic achievements 53 As is suggested in the passage, failure to feel happy often results from _. （ A） taking everything one has for gran

48、ted （ B） lack of freedom to love and be loved （ C） lack of company of friends （ D） ignoring the choices one is given in life 54 The author implies that when one chases wealth and finally gets it _. （ A） he can realize what happiness is （ B） he should not feel content with himself （ C） he may conside

49、r it extreme happiness （ D） he may not end up with happiness 55 The passage aims to tell _. （ A） the constant pursuit of happiness （ B） the great importance of happiness （ C） the real meaning of happiness （ D） the changing concept of happiness 55 Children in the United States are exposed to many influences other than that of their families. Television is the most significant of th
