Key skill set for success is persistence (毅力), a characteristic that researchers say is heavily influenced by fathers. Researchers from Brigham Young Univ
18、ersity discovered that fathers are in a unique position to help their adolescent children learn persistence.BYU professors Laura Padilla-Walker and Randal Day arrived at these findings after following 325 American families over several years. And over time, the persistence gained through fathers led
19、 to higher achievement in school. “There are relatively few studies that stress the unique role of fathers,” Padilla-Walker said. “This research also helps to prove that characteristics such as persistence which can be taught are key to a childs life success.”Researchers determined that dads need to
20、 practice an “authoritative” parenting style. Authoritative parenting is not authoritarian: rigid, demanding or controlling. Rather, an authoritative parenting style includes some of the following characteristics: children feel warmth and love from their father; responsibility and the reasons behind
21、 rules are stressed; children are given an appropriate level of autonomy (自主权).In the study, about 52 percent of the dads exhibited above-average levels of authoritative parenting. A key finding is that over time, children raised by an authoritative father were significantly more likely to develop p
22、ersistence, which leads to better outcomes in school.This particular study examined 11 to 14-year-olds living in two-parent homes. Yet the researchers suggest that single parents still may play a role in teaching the benefits of persistence, which is an avenue of future research.24. What is special
23、about the BYU professors study?A. It was based on a number of large families.B. It centered on fathers role in parenting.C. It analyzed different kinds of parenting styles.D. It aimed to improve kids achievement in school.25. What would an authoritative father do when raising his children?A. Ignore
24、their demands. B. Make decisions for them.C. Explain the rules to them. D. Control their behaviors.26. Which group can be a focus of future studies according to the researchers?A. Children aged from 11 to 14.B. Single parents.C. Authoritarian fathers. D. Mothers in two-parent homes.27. Which of the
25、following is the best title for the text?A. Three Characteristics of Authoritative Fathers.B. Key Skills for Young Adults to Succeed in Future.C. Family Relationship Influences School Performance.D Children Tend to Learn Determination from Father.CGoogle “information overload” and you are immediatel
26、y overloaded with information: more than 7m hits in 0.05 seconds. Some of this information is interesting: for example, the phrase “information overload” was popularised by Alvin Toffler in 1970. Some of it is mere noise: obscure companies promoting their services and even more obscure bloggers soun
27、ding off. The overall impression is at once overwhelming and confusing.“Information overload” is one of the biggest irritations in modern life. There are e-mails to answer, YouTube videos to watch and, back in the physical world, meetings to attend and papers to shuffle(翻动). A survey by Reuters once
28、 found that two-thirds of managers believe that the data deluge(泛滥) had made their jobs less satisfying or hurt their personal relationships. One-third thought that it had damaged their health. Another survey suggests that most managers think most of the information they receive is useless.Some rese
29、archers raise three big worries. First, information overload can make people feel anxious and powerless: scientists have discovered that multitaskers produce more stress hormones. Second, overload can discourage creativity. Teresa Amabile of Harvard Business School has spent more than a decade study
30、ing the work habits of 238 people. She finds that focus and creativity are connected. People are more likely to be creative if they are allowed to focus on something for some time without interruptions. If constantly interrupted or forced to attend meetings, they are less likely to be creative. Thir
31、d, overload can also make workers less productive. David Meyer of the University of Michigan has shown that people who complete certain tasks in parallel take much longer and make many more errors than people who complete the same tasks in sequence.What can be done about information overload? One an
32、swer is technological: rely on the people who created the fog to invent filters(过滤器) that will clean it up. Xerox promises to restore “information purity” by developing better filtering and managing devices. A second answer involves willpower. Turn off your mobile phone and WiFi from time to time.Mo
33、st companies are better at giving employees access to the information superhighway than at teaching them how to drive. This is starting to change. Management consultants have spotted an opportunity. Derek Dean and Caroline Webb of McKinsey urge businesses to apply three principles to deal with data
34、overload: find time to focus, filter out noise and forget about work when you can. Business leaders are chipping in. David Novak of Yum! Brands urges people to ask themselves whether what they are doing is constructive or a mere “activity”. Cristobal Conde of SunGard, an IT firm, preserves “thinking
35、 time” in his schedule when he cannot be disturbed. This might sound like common sense. But common sense is rare amid the cacophony(不和谐的声音) of corporate life.28. According to the survey conducted by Reuters, most managers believe _.A. the data deluge does harm to their health.B. most information the
36、y receive is of great use.C. information overload destroys their personal relationship.D. their jobs are satisfying thanks to the rich information on the Internet.29.

37、ivity.C. Arousing peoples negative feelings.D. Leaving people bad at multitasking.30.

39、s Giuseppe Del Giudice feel uneasy. Sometimes he incurs (招致) late fees, but in many ways the emotional toll (代价) is worse. “The longer the bills go unpaid,” says Del Giudice, 58, “the more my anxiety increases.” At the end of the day or month, most people get their tasks done on time, but around 20
40、percent are chronic procrastinators (慢性拖延者) at home and at work. One big factor for them is fear of failure, of not living up to expectations. Kelli Saginak, a 57-year-old functional health coach from Wisconsin, procrastinated about looking for a new job for years. That inability to take action only
41、 confirmed her belief that she would never do any better. “If I dont take the risk, decide, or commit, I dont have to face the judgment,” says Saginak. Some people accept procrastination, believing that they make progress under pressure. But researchers have disproved that view. “I did an experiment
42、 several years ago, putting procrastinators under restrictions of time,” says Joseph Ferrari, a psychology professor at DePaul University. “They did worse than nonprocrastinators, but they thought they did better. They made more errors. They took longer.” Whatever the motivation, delaying a diet or
43、exercise program may increase your risk of heart disease. Not having seen the doctor when your illness was easier to treat may shorten your life. Just thinking about what you havent done may cause discomfort. “Procrastinators experience higher levels of stress, both from leaving things to the last m
44、inute and from their own negative and self-critical feelings about their procrastination,” says Fuschia Sirois, a psychology lecturer at the University of Sheffield. One of the most commonly procrastinated activities is going to bed. “You can put your lights on a timed dimmer switch (亮度调节开关) to enco
45、urage a consistent bedtime,” said Joel Anderson, a philosophy researcher-lecturer at Utrecht University, who performed an experiment on this and found it worked on most of his subjects. “They formed an intention,” Anderson says. “One of them said, When the lights start to dim, Ill start going to bed
46、.” Then, reward yourself for each step you take toward your goal. But dont try to convince yourself it will work the other way around!32. What prevented Kelli Saginak stepping into the job market again?A. Her old age.B. Her lack of skills.C. Her fear of judgment.D. Her past failure.33. What does the
47、 underlined part “that view” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Procrastinators tend to misjudge their abilities.B. Its hard for people to succeed under pressure.C. Procrastination is part of the human condition.D. Pressure usually leads to better performance.34. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A. Differen
48、t forms of procrastinating. B. Negative effects of procrastinating.C. Common excuses for procrastinating. D. Specific suggestions for procrastinating.35. How should people stick to a fixed bedtime according to Joel Anderson?A. They can use lighting as little as possible.B. They can first ask themsel

They can try sending themselves signals to inspire action.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。The dictionary isnt forever.

50、eres how the process of deleting a word from the dictionary works.The dictionary is actually a steadily enlarging volume. 36 New words arise from emerging and expanding disciplines.

51、ome outdated. 37 Who decides which words to delete? 38 While adding a word to the dictionary is a precise process, its even more difficult for a word to get deleted.

70、igh school, I had the difficult task of choosing a career path before college started in three months. In those days in Pakistan, there were limited options (选择) :becoming a doctor or an engineer, or entering the financial world after getting a business degree. I wasnt interested in engineering, so
71、I was left with medicine or business. I couldnt decide.My uncle suggested that I do a job placement to experience it for a month in an international company followed by a month in a hospital. After that, I could make a decision. It seemed like a brilliant idea.I was accepted for a months placement a

I got a feel for how the world of finance functioned, made new friends, and generally enjoyed the mostly easy-going work surroundings.The month passed rapidly, and soon I began working at a leading hospital in Karachi. The experience couldnt have been more different. The
73、 hospital had an intense environment. The days started early (at 7 am, compared to 9 am at the bank) , and were filled with endless duties. And the night calls! This was crazy, working all day, through the night, and again the next day.I began thinking about my two experiences.The bank had offered a
74、 more relaxing atmosphere, better working hours and less stress. The hospital was full of excitement and unpredictability, but the studying and training was difficult. It seemed that the business option was going to win out.Near the end of my month at the hospital, I was driving home after an especi

He managed to smile and squeeze my hand. No words were spoken between us-none was needed. I spent the rest of the day in a state of excitement, the most unforgettable mood I had ever experienced. Driving home that evening, I knew what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. My career path became crystal clear at that moment.
