It's not difficult to understand our desire for athletes to be heroes. On the surface, at

least, athletes display a vital and indomitable spirit; they are gloriously alive【B1】their bodies. And sports do allow us to【B2】acts that can legitimately be described as【B3】, thrilling, beautiful, even noble. In (a)an【B4】complicated and disorderly world, sports are still an arena in which we can regularly witness a certain kind of【B5】.

Yet there's something of a【B6】here, for the very qualities a society【B7】to seek in its heroes-selflessness,【B8】consciousness, and the like—are precisely the【B9】of those which are needed to【B10】a talented but otherwise unremarkable neighborhood kid into a Michael Jordan. To become a star athlete, you have to have an extremely competitive【B11】and you have to be totally focused on the development of your own physical skills. These qualities【B12】well make a great athlete,【B13】they don't necessarily make a great person. On top of this, our society reinforces these【B14】by the system it has created to produce athletes—a system characterized by【B15】responsibility and enormous privilege.

The athletes themselves suffer the【B16】of this system. Trained to measure themselves perpetually【B17】the achievements of those a round them, many young athletes develop a sense of what sociologist Walter Schafer has【B18】"conditional self-worth". They learn very quickly that they will be accepted by the important figures in their lives—parents, coaches and peers as long as they are【B19】as "winner". Unfortunately they become【B20】and behave as if their athletic success will last forever.

【B1】

A.outside

B.inside

C.besides

D.with

Patience is a quality of heart that can be greatly enhanced with deliberate practice.
An effective way that I have found to deepen my own patience is to create actual practice periods periods of time that I set up in my mind to practice the art of patience. Life itself becomes a classroom, and the curriculum is patience. You can start with as little as five minutes and build up your capacity for patience, over time. Start by saying to yourself, Okay, for the next five minutes I won’t allow myself to be bothered by anything. I'll be patient. What you’ll discover is truly amazing. Your intention to be patient, especially if you know it's only for a short while, immediately strengthens your capacity for patience. Patience is one of those special qualities where success feeds on itself.

Once you reach little milestones five minutes of successful patience you’ll begin to see that you do, indeed, have the capacity to be patient, even for longer periods of time. Over time, you may even become a patient person.

Being patient will help you to keep your perspective. You’ll see even a difficult situation, say your present challenge, isn't life or death but simply a minor obstacle that must be dealt with. Without patience, the same scenario can become a major emergency complete with yelling, frustration, hurt feelings, and high blood pressure. It's really not worth all that. Whether you’re needing to deal with children, your boss, or a difficult person or situation if you don’t want to sweathe small stuff, improving your patience level isa great way to start.

(1)The best title for this selection is ________.

A、The Art of Patience

B、Patience and Perspective

(2)Which of the following is not TRUE?

A、Creating actual practice periods is the only effective way to deepen patience.

(3)According to the passage, if we want to be patient, ________.

A、we should have 5-minute practice everyday

B、we should reach little milestones—five minutes of successful patience first

C、we could create actual practice periods and practice

D、We should be perspective

(4)With patience, ________.

A、we will see a difficult situation as death

What's hot for 2007 among the very rich? A $ 7.3 million diamond ring. A trip to Tanzania
to hunt wild animals. Oh, and income inequality,

Sure, some leftish billionaires like George Soros have been railing against income inequality for years. But increasingly, centrist and right-wing billionaires are starting to worry about income inequality and the fate of the middle class.

In December, Mortimer Zuckerman wrote a column in U.S. News & World Report, which he owns. "Our nation's core bargain with the middle class is disintegrating," lamented (哀叹) the 117th-riehest main in America. "Most of our economic gains have gone to people at the very top of the income ladder. Average income for a household of people of working age, by contrast, has fallen five years in a row." He noted that "Tens of millions of Americans live in fear that a major health problem can reduce them to bankruptcy."

Wilbur Ross Jr. has echoed Zuckerman's anger over the bitter struggles faced by middle-class Americans. "It's an outrage that any American's life expectancy should be shortened simply because the company they worked for went bankrupt and ended health-care coverage," said the former chairman of the International Steel Group.

What's happening? The very rich are just as trendy as you and I, and can be so when it comes to politics and policy. Given the recent change of control in Congress, the popularity of measures like increasing the minimum wage, and efforts by California's governor to offer universal health care, these guys don't need their own personal weathermen to know which way the wind blows.

It's possible that plutocrats (有钱有势的人) are expressing solidarity with the struggling middle class as part of an effort to insulate themselves from confiscatory (没收性的) tax policies. But the prospect that income inequality will lead to higher taxes on the wealthy doesn't keep plutocrats up at night. They can live with that.

No, what they fear was that the political challenges of sustaining support for global economic integration will be more difficult in the United States because of what has happened to the distribution of income and economic insecurity.

In other words, if middle-class Americans continue to struggle financially as the ultrawealthy grow ever wealthier, it will be increasingly difficult to maintain political support for the free flow of goods, services, and capital across borders. And when the United States places obstacles in the way of foreign investors and foreign goods, it's likely to encourage reciprocal action abroad. For people who buy and sell companies, or who allocate capital to markets all around the world, that's the real nightmare.

What is the current topic of common interest among the very rich in America?

A.The fate of the ultrawealthy people.

B.The disintegration of the middle class.

C.The inequality in the distribution of wealth.

D.The conflict between the left and the right wing.

The statement that "Love is blind" is all too true. People in love need to depend on other
s to help them separate their idealization of who they think their lover is from the reality of who their counterpart(对方) really is. That is one reason why I don't advise Internet dating since it is very difficult to get realistic impressions of supposed Internet counterparts.

Sadly, students have told me that as soon as people finally reach the point of marriage, "true love dies". I disagree. It is not the end of true love, but the beginning of realistic love. I have been married for 21 years in a cross-cultural marriage. Despite the difficulties of such marriage, I love my wife now more than ever before. But that does not mean my emotions are always the same as when I first fell in love. As a matter of fact, love is more than emotion; it's both a decision and a commitment(承诺,奉献).

True love must include making a self sacrificial(自我牺牲的) commitment to always work for another person's good. I like to think that falling in love is like a match lighting a candle. It can start a love relationship. But it doesn't "hold a candle" to the true lifelong realistic commitment that makes true love last for life. Unlike a candle, true love will not grow tired and eventually bum out, but will grow ever deeper throughout a lifetime.

People in love usually can't ______ their idealization of their lover from the reality.

A.separate

B.connect

C.depend on

D.think

A foreigner’s first impression of the U.S. is likely to be that everyone is in a rush-often under pressure. City people appear always to be hurrying to get where they are going restlessly, seeking attention in a store, and elbowing others as they try to complete their errands(任务).

Racing through daytime meals is part of the pace of life in this country. Working time is considered precious. Others in public eating places are waiting for you to finish so that they too can be served and get back to work within the time allowed. Each person hurries to make room for the next person. If you don’t, waiters will hurry you.

You also find drivers will be abrupt and that people will push past you.You will miss smiles, brief conversations, and small courtesies with strangers. Don’t take it personally. This is because people value time highly, and they resent someone else“wasting”it beyond a certain courtesy point.

The view of time affects the importance we attach to patience. In the American system of values, patience is not a high priority. Many of us have what might be called “a short fuse.” We begin to move restlessly about if we feel time is slipping away without some return------be this in terms of pleasure, work value, or rest. Those coming from lands where time is looked upon differently may find this matter of pace to be one of their most difficult adjustments in both business and daily life.

Many newcomers to the States will miss the opening courtesy of a business call, for example, they will miss the ritual socializing that goes with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee they may be traditional in their own country. They may miss leisurely business chats in a café or coffeehouse. Normally, Americans do not assess their visitors in such relaxed surroundings over prolonged small talks. We seek out evidence of past performance rather than evaluate a business colleague through social courtesies. Since we generally assess and probe professionally rather than socially, we start talking business very quickly.

1. The statement that Americans are impolite to their business colleagues is wrong.

A: T B: F

2. In the fourth paragraph, ,a high priority? means ,a first concern?

A: T B: F

3. Americans evaluate a business colleague by establishing business relations.

A: T B: F

4. This passage mainly talks about how Americans do business with foreigners.

A: T B: F

5. We can infer from the passage that the author’s tone in writing is praisful.

A: T B: F
