27、Last week, my granddaughter started kindergarten, and I wished her every success. But part of me didn’t. I actually wanted her to fail in some ways because I believe that failure can be good for our learning process. Success is proving that you can do something that you already know you can do, or doing something correctly the first time, which can often be a problematic (存在问题的) victory. First-time success is usually a fluke (侥幸). First-time failure, by contrast, is supposed to be the natural order of things. Failure is how we learn.
In Africa they describe a good cook as “She who has broken many pots.” If you’ve spent enough time in the kitchen to have broken a lot of pots, probably you know a fair amount about cooking. I once had dinner with a group of cooks, and they spent time comparing knife wounds and burn scars. They knew how much credibility (可信) their failures gave them.
I earn my living by writing a daily newspaper column. Each week I am aware that one column I write is going to be the worst column. I try my best every day. I have learned to cherish that column. A successful column usually means that I am discussing my familiar topic, writing in a style I am used to or saying the same things as anyone else but in a fancy way.
My younger daughter is a trapeze artist. She spent three years putting together a show, and she did it successfully for years. There was no reason for her to change it but she did anyway. She said she was no longer learning anything new and she was bored. And if she was bored, there was no point in subjecting (使……服从于) her body to all that stress. She risked failure and great public embarrassment in order to feed her soul.
My granddaughter is a perfectionist. She will feel her failures, and I will want to comfort her. But I will also, I hope, remind her of what she learned, and how she can do better next time. I hope I can tell her, though, that it’s not the end of the world. Indeed, with luck, it is the beginning.
【1】Why did the author want his granddaughter to fail?
A. Success is boring though beneficial.
B. She would learn more from failure.
C. It’s impossible to do everything successfully.
D. He wanted her to be strong enough to face hardships.
【2】What’s the author’s attitude toward his daughter changing her show?
A. Negative B. Worried
C. Positive D. Ambiguous(模凌两可的)
【3】The author develops the article mainly by __________.
A. giving examples
B. following the time order
C. comparing different opinions
D. presenting a cause and analyzing its effects

29、In the spring of 1990, I was at a racing event in Columbus, Ohio, and the guy who was hosting said, “Hey, do you want to see my new baby?” I said, “Sure.” We went out and there it was, a little red sports car. I asked if I could sit in it and when I did, I put my left hand on the steering wheel and my right on the shifter. I said to myself, “It just feels right.”
Soon after, I started seeing billboards and print advertisements. Mazda’s motto for the new car was, “It just feels right.” Total coincidence (巧合). At the time, I was under contract (合约) to race with Ford Motor Co., and so I always had Ford cars. I didn’t need a new car, but I bought one anyway—a Miata from its very first model year.
There wasn’t anything like the Miata at the time—a new, small, two-seat convertible sports car. And this one hit every mark. It had cool style, it was affordable, it had durability (耐用), performance, and economy. I was living in South Florida and it was a perfect place to drive with the top down. The car loved to go fast. I certainly got some tickets for speeding. It was the kind of car that made you want to go into garage (车库) so you could say good night to it.
Now, so many years later, I can look back and say that I have never owned any car for more than three years except this one, which I have owned for over three decades. It amazes me that when I first saw it, I’d never heard of the Miata. Now you see them everywhere, and it has its own successful racing series, the MX-5 Cup.
About five years ago, I was going to visit my daughter who lived in San Francisco, and I learned that Tom Matano—who led the design of this car for Mazda—was working in San Francisco. I made an appointment and I met him. To me, it was like meeting Enzo Ferrari if you are a Ferrari nut. He turned out to be the most modest, delightful human being, and it was an honor to get to know him. These days I still drive the Miata to its fullest. Recently I went on a road trip with one of my favorite girlfriends. We were on a straight road that had no speed limit. I was hauling at 120mph. The car was happy as a camper, as they say, and so was its driver.
【1】Which of the following best describes the author’s Miata?
A．Attractive and tough.
B．Modern and large.
C．Small and traditional.
D．Fashionable and expensive.
【2】What can we know about the author from the passage?
A．She was the designer of Mazda.

A．To recommend a new car.
B．To explain her routine.
C．To express her excitement.
D．To introduce Enzo Ferrari.
【4】Where is the passage probably taken from?
A．A magazine.
B．A guidebook.
