試題分析：這篇短文給我們介紹了斯蒂芬喬布斯。他是蘋果公司的創(chuàng)始人之一，但是他上學(xué)的時(shí)候可不是一個(gè)好學(xué)生，相反的，他還經(jīng)常制造麻煩，大學(xué)也沒有讀完。然而他是一個(gè)充滿了新奇想法的人，這對他以后的成功是至關(guān)重要的。

【1】B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文中He was not among the best students at school，and from time to time he got into trouble with either his schoolmates or his teachers可知，喬布斯在上學(xué)的時(shí)候并不是一個(gè)好學(xué)生，還經(jīng)常給老師惹麻煩。故選B。

【2】C詞義猜測題。根據(jù)文意和劃線單詞所在的句子But he was full of new ideas，which few people saw the value of可知，雖然喬布斯在學(xué)校里表現(xiàn)不好，但是他充滿了新奇的想法，人們都看不到他的這些想法中的任何價(jià)值。value價(jià)值，跟它意思接近的是C importance重要性。beauty 美麗；chance 機(jī)會；hope希望。

【3】D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段的最后Things remained the same when he went up to college and he dropped out halfway可知，喬布斯的大學(xué)沒有讀完，中途退學(xué)了。由此可知選D。

【4】C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第三段中He gave the name “Apple” because it reminded him of a happy summer he once spent on an orchard（果園）in Oregon可知，他給自己的公司命名蘋果，是為了紀(jì)念他在Oregon的果園里度過的幸福時(shí)光。故選C。

【5】B推理判斷題。根據(jù)文意可知，斯蒂芬喬布斯雖然在上學(xué)的時(shí)候表現(xiàn)不好，大學(xué)也沒有讀完，但是他充滿了新奇的想法，正是這些新的想法讓他獲得了以后的成功。因此應(yīng)該選B。

【題目】Maybe you have seen this in schools：some students are studying nearly all the time but they just pass their exams，while some others may spend much less time on their books but do much better in exams．How could this happen? People used to think that hard work is the only way to success．But now they have understood that smart work can make them succeed，too．

Hard workers don’t mind working for long hours，while smart workers always think of several different answers to these question，“Why should I suffer this?” “Isn’t there a better way to do this?” Thanks to these people，we can use computers instead of the abacus now．Progress in every field is the direct result of “try to find a better way” by smart workers．

There was a large soap factory in Japan．Once it received an unusual letter from someone who complained that there was no soap in the soapbox he bought．

How could empty soapboxes go out of the factory? The engineers checked the producing and packing．The producing was fine，but in about one in ten thousand cases, the packing machine（機(jī)器）let an empty soapbox go．There was no need to spend a lot of money repairing the machine for such a small problem．The engineer soon worked out a solution, he put a huge X-ray machine and two large computers to find out the empty soapboxes．After teaching the workers how to use it，he sat down in his seat，exhausted．

“Sir，we could have solved the problems in a much simpler and cheaper way，”a worker said．“Really? How?”

“We can put a huge fan near the packing machine．The wind coming from the fan will blow away the empty boxes。leaving the other boxes with soap．”

See，this is smart work．In order to succeed，we should not only work hard like the engineer，but also think smart like this worker．

【1】Some students spend less time on schoolwork but do better in exams _____．

A．because of their hard work

C．put two large computers D．put a huge fan

【4】The phrase “blow away” in the passage means“_______”．
