There is an English saying that goes,“he who laughs last laughs the hardest.”High School Musical star Zac Efron is laughing a lot these days.

【1 Because he was always the smallest in his class and was laughed at because he had a big space between his teeth. In sixth grade, Efron’s basketball team made it to be the league championships. In double overtime(兩個(gè)加時(shí)賽),with three seconds left, he rebounded the ball and passed it to the wrong team! 2.

3 Now at 21,Efron is one of People Magazine’s 100 Most Beautiful People, graces(榮登)the cover of Entertainment Weekly Hollywood’s most influential magazine, and is travelling the world promoting the third High School Musical film.

Efron was born and raised in California. 4 According to Efron,“he would flip out(發(fā)瘋) if he got a B and not an A in school, and that he was a class clown.”It was his father who encouraged him to act. 5 He also took singing lessons. He graduated from high school in 2006 and was accepted at the University of Southern California to study film. But he put it off -----why study movies when you can star in them. Efron has risen all the way to the top of the movie business. And he can now laugh all the way to the bank.

A. He owed it a lot to his father that he succeeded.

【2】F

【3】B

【4】E

【5】C

【解析】

試題分析:本文介紹了諺語“he who laughs last laughs the hardest.笑到最后才笑得最好”,并通過Zac Efron的的故事進(jìn)行例證說明。

【1】G 根據(jù)橫線后句Because he was always the smallest in his class and was laughed at because he had a big space between his teeth.可知因?yàn)殚T牙縫隙大,他經(jīng)常被同學(xué)嘲笑。這與G項(xiàng)“As a young boy, Efron was picked on by his classmates.”語義一致。

【2】F 根據(jù)橫線全局he rebounded the ball and passed it to the wrong team!他搶到了籃板球,但是把球傳給了對手,導(dǎo)致球隊(duì)輸?shù)舯荣。故F項(xiàng)“They scored and his team lost the game.”符合上下文串聯(lián)。

【3】B 根據(jù)橫線后句Now at 21,Efron is one of People Magazine’s 100 Most Beautiful People, graces(榮登)the cover of Entertainment Weekly Hollywood’s most influential magazine,可知現(xiàn)在的Efron與以前完全不一樣,成為了一個(gè)名人。故B項(xiàng)“But history, as they say, is a thing of the past.歷史是過去的事情”符合本段的上下文串聯(lián)。

【4】E 根據(jù)橫線后句“According to Efron,“he would flip out(發(fā)瘋) if he got a B and not an A in school, and that he was a class clown.”可知如果他某一門學(xué)科得了B,沒有得到A,他就會(huì)瘋狂第學(xué)習(xí)。這說明他非常重視學(xué)習(xí)。故E項(xiàng)符合上下文串聯(lián)。

【5】C 本段主要敘述Efron興趣愛好很廣泛,不僅僅學(xué)習(xí)成績很好,他還擅長很多其他的東西。根據(jù)橫線前句It was his father who encouraged him to act.提到他的父親鼓勵(lì)他去參加表演,那么本句應(yīng)該是與表演相關(guān)的內(nèi)容,故C項(xiàng)“He took part in school performances and acted in a local theater.”與上下文一致。

【題目】Italy is one country where beauty is prized more than any other virtue(美德). That is, except in the small town of Piobbico, the self-declared World Capital of Ugly People. The road sign at the edge of the town even warns visitors that they are entering the ugly zone. People who consider themselves ugly have been gathering in Piobbico since the 1960s. That’s when Ugly Club president Telesforo Lacobelli established a dating agency for women who believed they were too ugly to attract husbands. Lacobelli believes that he is ugly himself because he has a short nose in a country where long or large noses have always been considered beautiful.

People from around the world travel to Piobbico to tell their sad stories of ugliness. During the annual Festival of the Ugly, which occurs on the first Sunday of every September, hundreds of people gather in Piobbico’s town square to elect the president of the Ugly Club. Lacobelli wins the election every year. The Ugly Club has over 20, 000 members. They carry ID cards that grade their ugliness from bearable to extreme. A prize is awarded to Ugly Club members who qualify as extremely ugly.

The Ugly Club president insists that ugliness is a virtue. Since beautiful people get a lot of attention for their beauty alone, they have to work hard to prove their other virtues. Ugly people, on the other hand, are genuine and do not have to prove anything to anybody, according to Lacobelli.

Lacobelli is a spokesperson for ugly people everywhere. He believes that the uglier one is, the better life can be. Though the club enjoys making fun of beauty, especially beauty contests, Lacobelli has a serious side as well. He believes that too many people suffer from financial and emotional pressures because they don’t meet society’s standards of beauty. The fact that beautiful people are more successful in the workforce is a problem that Lacobelli has attempted to bring forward to the Italian public and government.

【1】Piobbico is rather special in that_________ .

A. it is a very small town

B. it is home to ugly people

C. it receives no visitors

D. it is the capital of Italy

【2】Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Ugly people are most respected in Italy.

B. The Festival of the Ugly is held every two years.

C. Ugly people are unfairly treated in society.

D. The uglier one is, the better life he or she lives.

【3】Why is Lacobelli elected the president of the Ugly Club every year?

A. Because he is the ugliest person in the whole world.

B. Because his ugliness is always graded as bearable.

C. Because he is a spokesperson for ugly people everywhere.

D. Because he was won the member’s trust and admiration.

【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. The Ugly Capital of the World

B. The Ugliest Person of the World

C. Festival of the Ugly

D. Beauty Contests Should be Banned.

B. Follow other people's paths.

C. Blame others for the fault.

D. Have faith in overnight success.

E. Only pay attention to the dreams themselves.

F. Believe someone else has the answers for you.

FIVE WAYS TO KILL YOUR DREAMS

I dedicated the past two years to understanding how people achieve their dreams. When we think about the dreams we have, and the footprint we want to leave in the universe, it is striking to see how big of an overlap there is between the dreams that we have and projects that never happen. So I'm here to talk to you today about five ways how not to follow your dreams.

【1】______

You know the story, right? The tech guy built a mobile app and sold it very fast for a lot of money. You know, the story may seem real, but I bet it's incomplete. If you go investigate further, the guy has done 30 apps before and he has done a master's on the topic, a Ph.D. He has been working on the topic for 20 years. This is really interesting. I myself have a story in Brazil that people think is an overnight success. I come from a humble family, and two weeks before the deadline to apply to MIT, I started the application process. And, voila! I got in. People may think it's an overnight success, but that only worked because for the 17 years prior to that, I took life and education seriously. Your overnight success story is always a result of everything you've done in your life through that moment.

【2】______

Constantly, people want to help out, right? All sorts of people: your family, your friends, your business partners, they all have opinions on which path you should take: "And let me tell you, go through this pipe." But whenever you go inside, there are other ways you have to pick as well. And you need to make those decisions yourself. No one else has the perfect answers for your life. And you need to keep picking those decisions, right? The pipes are infinite and you're going to bump your head, and it's a part of the process.

【3】______

So when your life is going great, you have put together a great team, and you have growing revenue, and everything is set time to settle. When I launched my first book, I worked really, really hard to distribute it everywhere in Brazil. With that, over three million people downloaded it, over 50,000 people bought physical copies. When I wrote a sequel, some impact was guaranteed. Even if I did little, sales would be okay. But okay is never okay. When you're growing towards a peak, you need to work harder than ever and find yourself another peak. Maybe if I did little, a couple hundred thousand people would read it, and that's great already. But if I work harder than ever, I can bring this number up to millions. That's why I decided, with my new book, to go to every single state of Brazil. And I can already see a higher peak. There's no time to settle down.

【4】______

I constantly see people saying, "Yes, I had this great idea, but no investor had the vision to invest." "Oh, I created this great product, but the market is so bad, the sales didn't go well." Or, "I can't find good talent; my team is so below expectations." If you have dreams, it's your responsibility to make them happen. Yes, it may be hard to find talent. Yes, the market may be bad. But if no one invested in your idea, if no one bought your product, for sure, there is something there that is your fault. Definitely. You need to get your dreams and make them happen. And no one achieved their goals alone. But if you didn't make them happen, it's your fault and no one else's. Be responsible for your dreams.

【5】_____

Once I saw an ad, and it was a lot of friends, they were going up a mountain, it was a very high mountain, and it was a lot of work. You could see that they were sweating and this was tough. And they were going up, and they finally made it to the peak. Of course, they decided to celebrate, right? I'm going to celebrate, so, "Yes! We made it, we're at the top!" Two seconds later, one looks at the other and says, "Okay, let's go down." Life is never about the goals themselves. Life is about the journey. Yes, you should enjoy the goals themselves, but people think that you have dreams, and whenever you get to reaching one of those dreams, it's a magical place where happiness will be all around. But achieving a dream is a momentary sensation, and your life is not. The only way to really achieve all of your dreams is to fully enjoy every step of your journey. That's the best way.

Culture Shock

Culture shock refers to the anxiety and feelings (of surprise, uncertainty, confusion, etc.) felt when people have to operate within a different and unknown cultural or social environment, such as a foreign country.

Generally speaking, we could say that there are four stages of culture shock. The first stage is called “the honeymoon”. In this stage, you are excited about living in a different place. 【1】

The next stage is “the hostility(敵意)stage”. In this stage, you begin to notice not everything is as good as you originally thought it was. 2 Moreover, people don’t treat you like a guest anymore.

Then you come to the third stage called “recovery”. In this stage, you start to feel more positive. 3 The whole situation starts to become more favorable and you begin to learn to adapt yourself to it.

The last stage of culture shock is called “adjustment”. In this stage, you have reached a point where you actually feel good. 4 The things that originally made you feel uncomfortable or strange are now things that you understand. Now you have adjusted to the new culture and you feel comfortable.

Not all individuals visiting another country will experience all these four stages.

5 It also occurs within cultures as individuals move from place to place or from one setting to another (e.g., from high school to college).

A. You feel that friends should help each other to deal with culture shock.

B. And you try to develop comprehension of everything you don’t understand.

C. In addition, culture shock is not limited to the overseas visitor.

D. You become tired of many things about the new culture.

E. You have learned enough to understand the new culture.

F. You begin to understand you need to travel a lot.

G. And everything seems to be marvelous and everybody seems to be so nice to you.
