The unusual things about the innovators (創(chuàng)新者) who succeeded in making our modern world is how often they failed. Turn on a light, take a photograph, watch TV, search the web, jet across the Pacific Ocean, talk on a cell-phone.

_________

We have just celebrated the 125th anniversary of American innovator Thomas Edison’s success in heating a thin line to white, hot heat for 14 hours in his lab in New Jersey, US. He did that on October 22, 1879, and followed up a month later by keeping a thread of common cardboard alight (點(diǎn)亮著的) in an airless space for 45 hours. Three years later he went on to light up half a square mile of downtown Manhattan, even though only one of the six power plants in his design worked when he turned it on, on September 4, 1882.

________

“Many of life’s failures,” Edison said, “are because that people did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.” Before that magical moment in October 1879, Edison had worked out no fewer than 3,000 theories about electric light. But in only two cases did his experiments work.

________

No one likes failure, but the smart innovators learn from it. Mark Gumz, the head of a camera maker, attributes some of the company’s successes in technology to understanding failure. His popular phrase is：“You only fail when you quit.”

_________

Over two centuries, the most common quality of the innovators has been persistence (堅(jiān)忍不拔). That is another way of saying they had the emotional ability to keep on with what they were doing. Walt Disney, the founder of Disneyland, was so penniless after a series of financial failures that he was left shoeless in his office because he could not afford the $1.50 to get his shoes from the repair shop. Pioneering car maker Henry Ford failed with one company and was forced out of another before he developed the Model T Car.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2013-2014學(xué)年河北館陶一中高二上期第二次月考英語(yǔ)卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Amusement parks make most of their money from admission fees paid by guests attending the park. Other sources include parking fees, food and drink sales and souvenirs. Practically all amusement parks operate using one of two admission principles:

     Pay-as-you-go In this form, a guest enters the park at little or no charge. The guest must then buy rides one by one, either at the attraction’s entrance or by buying ride tickets. The cost of the attraction is often based on its complexity (復(fù)雜性) or popularity. The park may allow guests to buy unlimited admissions to all attractions within the park. A pass is then shown at the attraction entrance to gain admission.

     Disneyland opened in 1955 using the pay-as-you-go form. Initially, guests paid the ride admission fees at the attractions. Soon, the problems of dealing with so many coins led to the development of a ticket system that, while now out of use, is still part of the amusement-park vocabulary. In this new form, guests bought ticket books that contained a number of tickets, with “A,” “B” and “C.” Rides and attractions using an “A-ticket” were generally simple, with “B-tickets” and “C-tickets” used for the larger, more popular rides. Later, the “D-ticket” was added, then finally the now-famous “E-ticket,” which was used for the biggest rides, like Space Mountain. Smaller tickets could be traded up for use on larger rides. Disneyland, as well as the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World, gave up this practice in 1982.

The advantages include:

guests pay for only what they choose to experience

attraction costs can be changed easily

The disadvantages include:

guests may get tired of spending money almost continuously

guests may not spend as much on food or souvenirs

1.What is the passage mainly about?

A. Attractions of amusement parks

B. Admission fees of amusement parks.

C. Admission principles of amusement parks

D. Sources of income of amusement parks.

2.According to the pay-as-you-go principle, guests _____.

A. don’t pay at the gate of the park

B. must pay for each ride they take

C. have to pay for all rides in the park

D. needn’t pay after entering the park

3.According to the passage, what is the meaning of the underlined word “Initially” in Paragraph 3?

A. Gradually.    B. At the beginning.     C. At last.      D. Commonly.

4.What would be introduced following the passage?

A. The other admission principle

B. Amusement parks’ earnings.

C. Some other admission principles

D. Users of the pay-as-you-go principle.
