In the late 1990s, a New York City schoolteacher named Angela Duckworth found something surprising. In her math classes, some of the kids with lower IQ scores ( 低
智商分数) were getting the highest grades, and some of the smartest kids were getting the lowest grades.
To try to solve this mystery (奥秘), Duckworth began to study different people. She asked people to rate ( 评价) themselves —for example,“I finish whatever I start.” In another study, she asked people some questions such as, “Would you like to have a dollar now or two dollars tomorrow?”
From her studies, Duckworth got to know that successful people have some personality traits ( 个性特点) in common. First of all, they have self-control. A person with self-control can avoid distractions ( 避免分心) and wait for something better to happen in the future. Secondly,they have“grit”.People with grit work hard and don't give up. They stay with a piece of work even if it's hard, or if it takes a long time.
Is it possible to have self-control and grit? Duckworth believes so. One way is to follow the “Hard Thing”rule: choose something that is hard for you, such as learning a new language. Practice it every day, even if you don't like doing it. Don't give up! To be successful, you need to stay with it.
( )27. From Duckworth's studies, we can know that successful people have____.
A.good teachers
B.a happy family
C.high IQ scores
D.similar personality traits
( )28. Judy is interested in how Duckworth did her studies. She can find the answer in Paragraph .
A. 1
B. 2
C. 3
D. 4
( )29. What advice would Duckworth probably give?
A.Start with an easy thing first before trying something harder.
B.Never spend a lot of time doing something boring.
C.Try something hard and don't give up halfway.
D.Only do the things that you like most.
( )30. What's the best title for the passage?
A.How to be successful
B.Why to study hard
C.A great schoolteacher
D.Two different studies
D
Max and I used to share toys (玩具) with each other. But things became different when he got a model car from his grandma on his birthday. He didn’t even ask me to touch it. I was so sad that I decided to buy one.
I told my mom about it, but she didn’t agree. I talked to her again and again, and finally we made a deal (协议). I would clean the recyclable rubbish bin (可回收垃圾箱) in the kitchen for 10 days. If I could do my job well, Mom would buy me a model car. It didn’t sound like a big deal, did it? I said yes even before my mom finished her talk.
However, I made a mistake on the first day. There were three big bins of different colors in front of our house. I opened one and threw the rubbish into it. When I was about to leave, I found that was a red bin for common rubbish. I didn’t know what to do. Then Mom came out and helped me get all the rubbish out and put it in the yellow bin. When everything was done, Mom said, “It’s OK to make a mistake, but be careful next time.”
I did carefully from then on, and finally I got my model car. It was my great work that helped me get it. My heart began to sing when Mom handed it to me!

Anger is a kind of feeling 36 . When your teacher gives you too much homework, when your team loses an important game, when a friend borrows your favorite thing and then breaks it, you may get angry.
37 . For example, you breathe faster, your face turns red, and you may want to break something or hit someone, but sometimes you hide your anger. For example, you may hide it in your heart. The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache or your stomach may hurt.
In fact, it’s not good to hide your anger, and it’s normal for you to get angry sometimes. 38. When you get angry, you can talk about it with adults, such as parents, teachers, etc 39 .
