第二阅读理解（共二节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）
A
Lily was a young French Canadian girl who grew up in the farming community. At the age of 16, her father thought that she had enough schooling and forced her to drop out of school to contribute to the family income. In 1922, with limited education and skills, the future didn’t look bright for Lily. Her father demanded that Lily find a job as soon as possible, but she didn’t have the confidence to ask for a job.
One day, Lily gathered her courage and knocked on her very first door. She was met by Margaret Costello, the office manager. In her broken English, Lily told her she was interested in the secretarial position. Margaret decided to give her a chance.
Margaret sat her down at a typewriter and said, “Lily, let’s see how good you really are.” She directed Lily to type a single letter, and then left. Lily looked at the clock and saw that it was 11:40 am. Everyone would be leaving for lunch at noon. She thought she should at least attempt the letter.
On her first try, she got through one line but made four mistakes. She pulled the paper out and threw it away. The clock now read 11:45. “At noon,” she said to herself, “I’ll move out with the crowd, and they will never see me again.”
On her second attempt, things didn’t get any better. Again she started over and finally completed the letter, full of mistakes, though. She looked at the clock: 11:55—five minutes to freedom.
Just then, Margaret walked in. She came directly over to Lily, and put one hand on the desk and the other on the girl’s shoulder. She read the letter and paused. Then she said, “Lily, you’re doing good work!” Lily was surprised. She looked at the letter, then up at Margaret. With those simple words of encouragement, her desire to escape disappeared and her confidence began to grow. She thought, “Well, if she thinks it’s good, then it must be good. I think I’ll stay!” Lily did stay at the Carhartt Overall Company for 51 years, through two world wars and 11 presidents—all because someone had the insight to give a shy and uncertain young girl the gift of self-confidence when she knocked on the door.
46. When Lily applied for the job, she .
A. could speak good English
B. didn’t know much about
typing
C. knew Margaret very well
D. never wrote any letter
47. How many attempts did Lily make to type the letter?
A. One.
B. Two.
C. Three.
D. Four.
48. Who does the underlined word “someone”in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Lily’s father.
B. Lily herself.
C. A president.
D. Margaret.
49.What can we learn from the story?
A. Encouragement makes a difference.
B. Honesty is the best policy.
C. Virtue leads to success.
D. Time waits for no man.
B

In all the world’s cultures, people sing, play instruments, and celebrate with music. It plays such an important role in our lives that all fields focus on its study, including one looking at the biology of music. Experts find that because of the way our brains process music, learning to play an instrument or just listening to music can have a wide range of benefits.
Music education has received a lot of attention. Learning to play an instrument can help children improve math, science, and language skills. One study in Canada tracked children’s IQ scores for nine months, discovering that children who studied music had the biggest test score improvements. The secret may lie in the way reading music and playing notes use several areas of the brain, increasing our ability to learn school subjects. For example, reading notes improves spatial(空间的) reasoning skills, which are helpful in solving math problems like fractions(分数).
Music is also used for medical purposes, such as the treatment of diseases which affect memories. The secret lies in the way the brain processes music. One area near the forehead, the medial prefrontal cortex, connects music with memories stored in two other areas: the amygdale and hippocampus. That’s why an old song can remind you of
something that happened years ago. For patients suffering from diseases like Alzheimer’s, listening to music can help unlock buried memories by strengthening musical pathways to memories.
With the evidence of music’s benefits, it’s no wonder some countries make music study a part of their education systems. People are recognizing that more than just a form of entertainment, music is also great for the brain.
54. Scientists are studying music because .
A. music plays a very important role in our lives
B. music can be used for medical treatment
C. our brains can process music in different ways
D. music education has received a lot of attention
55. According to the Canadian study, which children increased IQ scores?
A. Those who already had high IQ scores.
B. Those who always played music.
C. Those who could not play any instrument.
D. Those who studied music for a period of time.
56. Which of the following is a kind of disease?
A. Spatial reasoning.
B. Alzheimer’s.
C. The amygdale and hippocampus.
D. The medial prefrontal cortex.
57. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Music and the mind B. Music and health
C. Music and education
D. Music and instruments
D
How do successful people think? What drives them? Interviews and investigations indicate that there are several keys to success that successful people share.
First of all, successful people never blame someone or something outside of themselves for their failure to go ahead. They realize that their future lies in their own hands. They understand that they cannot control things in life, such as nature, the past and other people. But in the meantime, they are well aware that they can control their own thoughts and actions. They take responsibility for their life and regard this as one of the most empowering things they can do. Perhaps what most separates successful people from others is that they live a life “on purpose”---- they are doing what they believe they are put here to do. In their opinion, having a purpose in their life is the most important element that enables them to become fully functioning people. They hold that when they live their life on purpose, their main concern is to do the job right. They love what they do ---- and it shows. People want to do business with them because of their commitment(忠诚). To live their life on purpose, successful people find a cause they believe in and create a business
around it. Besides, they never easily give up. Once they have set up goals in their life, they are willing to work hard whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Top achievers always bear in mind what they don’t have.
Rather than be negative or depressing, they use the knowledge to spur themselves on and go after what they want energetically and passionately.
58. The underlined word “it ” refers to “____”.
A. the main concern of successful people
B. the job that successful people do
C. the commitment with which successful people do their jobs
D. the business that successful people do with other people
59. By living a life “on purpose”, successful people can do the
following EXCEPT ____.
A. do a lot of work
B. concentrate on their jobs
C. do business with many people
D. control things in life
60. The underlined word “spur ” most probably means “____”.
A. encourage
B. excite
C. relieve
D. force
