26、I used to teach in public schools. After several years of teaching, what struck me was that IQ was not the only difference between my best and my smartest kids. Some of my strongest performers didn’t have super IQ scores. Some of my smartest kids weren’t doing so well. If doing well in school and in life depends on much more than IQ, then what is it?
I left the classroom and become a psychologist (心理学家). I stared studying kids and adults in all kinds of challenging conditions, and in every study my question was: Who is successful here and why?
We went to West Point Military Academy. We tried to predict which cadets (军校生) would stay in military training and which would drop out. We went to the National Spelling Bee and tried to predict which children would make the farthest progress in competition. We studied new teachers working in really tough neighborhoods, asking which teachers were still going to be there at the end of the school year.
In all those very different contexts, one characteristic stood out. It wasn’t social intelligence, or good looks, or physical health, and it wasn’t IQ. It was grit (毅力).
Grit is passion and perseverance for long-term goals. Grit is having patience. Grit is sticking with your future, day in, day out, not just for the week, not just for the months, but for years, and working really hard to make that future a reality. Grit is living life like it’s a marathon not a dash.
Grit also matters in school, especially for kids at risk of dropping out. I asked thousands of high school juniors to take grit questionnaires and then waited around more than a year to see who would graduate. It turns out that grittier kids were more likely to graduate.
However, we still know little about building grit. Perhaps that’s the work that stands before us. We need to take our best ideas and test them. We need to be gritty about getting our kids grit.
【1】According to paragraph one, what did the speaker learn from her years of teaching?
A.Teaching was less interesting than doing research.
B.Education was more challenging than she expected.
C.Students’ success didn’t necessarily relate to their IQs.
D.Students’ performances depended on their IQs.
【2】What does having grit require?
A.Social intelligence, good looks and IQ.
B.Good looks, physical health and IQ.
C.Running a marathon and dreaming big.
D.Passion, perseverance and patience.
【3】The speaker’s studies show that grit would help ________.

27、
I Was Told I Can
About 6 months ago, I joined a gym. Every morning, there was one trainer who worked out at the same time as I did. He did his daily exercise with such a quiet determination(决心) that he made it all look effortless although I knew all too well how hard he was working.
A couple of weeks ago, I was watching him do chin-ups. I had never tried doing chin-ups before, but it looked so easy, so I asked him if I could try one. He eagerly stepped aside and encouraged me to try. I pulled myself up without thinking … once … then twice. I stopped because that was all I had in me, but he stepped up behind me and pushed me up for two more. It felt so good and I felt strong.
The next few days when I finished my workout, I would ask him to watch me do chin-ups. However, each time I could only do two. I was quite upset, but he told me that when he trained firefighters, men were required to do 5 chin-ups, and women were required to do one or two. Most people couldn’t do them at all, so he was amazed at what I could do. He further told me that if I practiced every day, I would be doing five or six in no time.
Because he told me I could, I didn’t realize how difficult it was. I was encouraged to try and I didn’t doubt it for a moment. I truly thank him for letting me believe that for me success is not only a possibility, but also a realistic goal that I can achieve.
【1】The writer wanted to try doing chin-ups for the first time because ________.
A.it looked so easy

C.she was good at sports
D.it was part of her training plan
【2】When the writer could only do two chin-ups, she felt ________.
A.bored
B.amazed
C.upset
D.satisfied
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A.Self-trust is the secret to success.
B.Exercise can only change our bodies.
C.Truth is much more powerful than lies.
D.Encouragement can help us achieve more.

29、 When you hear the word hero, you may think of someone like Mahatma Gandhi or Nelson Mandela. But there are also “everyday” heroes—they may not be well-known to the public, but they do what they can to help _______ people’s lives as well. Everyday heroes are normal people who are working to make the world a better place. Among them is Robert Lee.
Lee grew up in New York City. As his family was not rich, he learned from a young age the importance of _______ the waste of food. When in college, he was part of a student group that gave out leftover (剩余的) food to homeless people. This experience made him realize how _________ the problem of food wastage actually was.
After he left university, Lee and his friend set up an organization called Rescuing Leftover Cuisine (RLC). Its _______ is to collect unsold food from restaurants and send it for free to shelters (收容所). Volunteers pick up the food from restaurants around the city and hand it out to those in need.
RLC operates simply. Using an app developed by Lee’s team, restaurants _______ how much leftover food they have each day. Then volunteers are sent to fetch it. The distance is usually short, so volunteers can just do their deliveries ( 递送 ) by walking from the restaurants to the shelters. Lee believes this is a quick way of delivery.
So far, Lee and his team have successfully _______ over 150,000 kilograms of food, serving almost 300,000 meals to people who need them.
