Farming in China today is very different from that 100 years ago. In those days, farmers did not have many machines to help them. They had animals. 【1】 This meant that farms were smaller than they are now. Farmers also worked in a different way in the past. In those days, farmers grew fruits and vegetables and kept cows, pigs and chickens to feed their families. 【2】 .
Farmers have a very special life in many ways. First of all, they can't leave the job at the end of the day. They live near the farm and there is always work to do. Second, a lot of farm work is outdoors, so the weather is very important for farmers. 【3】 A lot of bad weather means farmers
will lose money. Finally, farmers work with plants and animals. They understand nature better than other people do . 【4】 .Spring is a time for planting. Farmers are busy getting the fields ready and then planting the seeds. In summer, farmers must take good care of the plants. Some may need water.

24、 What Is Success The Oxford English Dictionary defines(定义) the word success as "the fact that you have achieved something that you want and have been trying to do or get; the fact of becoming rich or famous or of getting a high social position". Some rankings(排行榜) put Albert Einstein, Michael Jackson, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs as among the most successful people in the world. What Michael Jackson did for music is the same as what Albert Einstein did for physics. All of them do have greatly influenced the industries or media to which they belonged. J.K.Rowling, the author of the famous Harry Potter novels. She created a magical world that sold more than 500 million books and became hit movies. With an estimated(估算的) net worth of ﹩650 million in 2017, she certainly goes for the dictionary definition of success, but for her it didn't come easy. Having no job, raising her child alone, she was refused by publishers about a dozen times before one took a chance on her. This is what people love: the rags-to-riches success story.
In comparison with Rowling, the Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh practically suffered a lot in life to make ends meet. When he was alive, he only sold one painting even though he created more than 2,000 works of art. Van Gogh died when he was 37 years old and with very little money to his name. However, in 1990, his painting Portrait of Dr.Gachet sold for﹩82.5 million, which has a value today of around﹩137 million. So, the question is: Is Van Gogh considered successful even though he died poor?
Besides the dictionary definitions, different people have competing ideas of what success really means. Often times the most agree on the same characteristics that make a person a success. A financial magazine named Inc. points to the following qualities that make a person successful: Drive, Confidence, Patience, Honesty, Passion…
Success isn't always about getting a lot of money or fans, even though those are the stories we see most often. There are other people who we may not know well, but who have achieved success in their own right. One perfect example is mothers. They spent days, months, and years teaching their children from birth to young adulthood. If a child grows up to be a kind, helpful, thoughtful and considerate adult, can the mother consider herself a success?
Perhaps success really is subjective, and it's up to people to define it for themselves. However, one thing seems to be in complete agreement when we search for the definition and can be best summed up by Steve Jobs, who said, "If you really look closely, most overnight successes took a long time."
【1】The word " rags-to-riches" in Paragraph 2 probably means " ______ ".
A.winning success from luck
B.turning talent into treasure
C.gaining money from honor
D.rising from poorness to wealth
【2】The writer mentions Vincent van Gogh to show that ______ .
A.success is through loneliness
B.success is beyond time and space
C.success is to take the life-changing opportunity
D.success is to achieve something you want and try
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A.Most successes happen overnight if we look closely.
B.What makes people successful is the strong mind and body.
C.A child growing to be a gentle adult can be the mother's success.
D.Albert Einstein makes greater achievement than Michael Jackson.
【4】The writer probably agrees that people should ______ .
A.reorder the rankings of the world's most successful people
B.reach an agreement of what makes a person success
C.recognize and appreciate different kinds of success
D.drive themselves to set great goals for success
25、So, it’s exam time again. Have you done the necessary work to get good marks? Sleeping with the textbook under the pillow doesn’t work. The best way is to space your practice out, rather than cram(塞满)it all together. Just as a scientist called Tom Stafford advises, if you organize five hours of study into one hour a day, you’ll remember more than if you study for five hours on one day.
Don’t depend on memory alone. Get pens and paper, and start working! Students who can test themselves earlier will be better at retrieving(检索)the knowledge from the memory and keep it in the long run. John Dunlosky, suggests that “you start by reading a textbook with your favourite pens and colours, and then write down the important ideas on small cards. While doing so you actually try to test yourselves on them.”
Good revision should give you confidence, but if you are still worried, it’s not harmful to follow some special customs. In Japan, it seems to be a tradition for students to eat Katsudon before a test. This is a bowl of rice with egg and pork pieces. The name of the dish reminds people of the word “katsu”, meaning “winning”. For some students in South Korea, the key to success is not washing their hair before an exam, because they believe they could wash all the knowledge out of their heads. And in different countries there are always those who swear by their “lucky underwear”.
The bottom line is that you need to study, eat a good meal, sleep well on the eve of the test, and believe in their “lucky underwear”.
Good luck in your exam!
【1】When you “space your practice out”, you ________.
A.study for at least 5 hours on one day

D.Students in Japan will eat noodles with egg and pork pieces before a test.
【3】What does the writer advise student to do before tests?
A.Prepare your exams well and be confident.
B.Choose your favourite pens and stay up late.
C.Follow some customs and just enjoy yourselves.
