26、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. I’m not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s 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 studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you 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. It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there’s a huge chance that you’re 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 you’re not willing to put in the time and work, don’t expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become rally good at whatever it is you put all that work into.
【1】In Paragraph 2, the underlined word that refers to__________.
A．being good at something
B．setting a practical goal
C．putting in more time
D．succeeding in life
【2】Successful people suggest doing what one loves because__________.
A．work makes one feel pain
B．one tends to enjoy his work
C．one gives up his work easily
D．it takes a lot of time to succeed
【3】What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A．Successful people like to show their great skills.
B．People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.
C．People need to achieve success at the cost of life.
D．It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.
27、Some of the Oldest Cities in the World
Argos, Greece — 5000 BC
The name Argos came from Argus, the son of Zeus and Niobe. According to Greek mythology, he was the city's king. It was known as being the birthplace of many soldiers who fought in the Trojan War. Historical account of the city describes it as being a cultural center in the Greek empire, being one of the first cities along with Sparta and Paros to hold music competitions.
Jericho, Palestine — 5000 BC
The city of Jericho is in the West Bank in the Middle East. It is believed to be the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world. Jericho started as a camping ground for Natufian hunter-gatherers around 10000 BC. People did not begin to permanently settle in the area until around 9600 BC, with the end of the last Ice Age and along with it the end of cold and drought.
Susa, Iran — 4200 BC
Susa began as a small settlement around 7000 BC and became an urban center around 4200 BC. It became an important town mainly because of its position near business center. Susa, located at the base of the Zagros Mountains and east of the Tigris River, was the Elamite Empire's capital until the Assyrians had control of it.
Gaziantep, Turkey — 3650 BC
Gaziantep，also known as Antep, is located in southern Turkey near Syrian. With a long history dating as far back as the Hittites, Gaziantep offers many historical sites to see. Visitors can explore the Gaziantep Fortress and Ravanda Citadel, both of which the Byzantines repaired in the 6th century.

28、In so many ways, cyberspace (网络空间) mirrors the real world. People ask for information, play games, and share hobby tips. Others buy and sell products. Still others look for friendship, or even love.
Unlike the real world, however, your knowledge about a person is limited to words on a computer screen. Identity (身份) and appearance mean very little in cyberspace. Rather, a person’s thoughts—or at least the thoughts they type—are what really count. So even the shyest person can become a chat-room star.
Usually, this “faceless” communication doesn’t create problems. Identity doesn’t really matter when you’re in a chat room discussing politics or hobbies. In fact, this stress on the ideas themselves makes the Internet a great place for exciting conversation. Where else can so many people come together to chat?
But some Internet users want more than just someone to chat with. They’re looking for serious love relationships. Is cyberspace a good place to find love? That answer depends on whom you ask. Some of these relationships actually succeed. Others fail.
Supporters say that the Internet allows couples lo gel lo know each other intellectually (智力地) first. Personal appearance doesn’t get in the way. Bill others argue that no one can truly know another person in cyberspace. Why? Because the Internet gives users a lot of control over how others view them. Internet users can carefully change their words to fit whatever image (形象) they want to give. In a sense, they’re not really themselves.
All of this may be fine if the relationship stays in cyberspace. But not knowing a person is a big problem in a love relationship. With so many unknowns, it’s easy to let one’s imagination “fill in the blanks.” This unavoidably leads to disappointment when couples meet in person. How someone imagines an online friend is often quite different than the real person.
So, before looking for love in cyberspace, remember the advice of Clifford Stoll: “Life in the real world is far richer than anything you’ll find on a computer screen.”
【1】Which of the following is not true according to the passage?
A．It is possible that people can’t find true love online.
B．Appearance and identity is of little importance for relationship online.
C．A shy person will surely become talkative online.
D．Internet users are encouraged to create images in cyberspace.
【2】What’s the main idea of Paragraph 5?
A．Cyberspace mirrors the real world.
B．Don’t judge a book by its cover.
C．Inner beauty is more important than appearance.
D．Things are not always what they seem.
【3】What does “this” in Paragraph 6 refer to?
A．The online friend.
B．One’s imagination.
C．Love relationship.
D．The real friend.
【4】What is the author’s attitude towards looking for love cyberspace?
A．He is against it.
B．He supports it.
C．He cares little about it.
D．He is interested in it.
29、Abzu is a word from the oldest Sumerian stories, coming from the words “ab” (ocean) and “zu” (to know). Giant Squid, a US company, has named its newly developed video game ABZU.【1】
In ABZU, players explore the ocean — a space that can be both alien and familiar at times. As the nameless diver, players explore the deep and see underwater life.
【2】Players can press buttons to dive and travel around the seas. They can swim with fish. They can touch pools and awaken creatures such as sea turtles. Players can awaken more wildlife and make the waters richer with life.
But as they adventure through the ocean, players will discover more.【3】The developers used real fish and sea life and made some of the animals’ real-life behaviors in the game. If players are sitting above these shark statues, they’ll see this circle of life as one fish eats another. 【4】It is like watching a Discovery Channel nature show.
Further into the game, players will discover broken underwater robots, and these robots will open the path for the diver. The developers let the environment tell the background story and players find out the other mechanics themselves. 【5】
Many have played ABZU so far. They think although the game is a short adventure, it holds the promise to being something more.
A．They’ll see shark statues.
B．At first, the game seems aimless
C．You need to pay for the skills in the game at first.
D．They’ll see cleaner fish feeding around a shark’s mouth.
E．It can be played on Windows PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
F．Underwater games are always welcomed by many young people in the US.
