23、es is an important social skill. Here are some ways to master it. Recite and repeat in conversation. When you hear a persons name, repeat it. Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips. You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial. Ask t
24、he other person to recite and repeat. You can let other people help you remember their names. After youve been introduced to someone, ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you. Most people will be pleased by the effort youre making to learn their names. Admit you dont know
25、.Admitting that you cant remember someones name can actually make people relaxed. Most of them will feel sympathy if you say, “Im working to remember names better. Yours is right on the tip of my tongue. What is it again?”Use associations. Link each person yon meet with one thing you find interestin
26、g or unusual. For example, you could make a mental note: “Vicki Cheng - tall, black hair.” To reinforce (加强) your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible.Limit the number of new names you learn at one time.When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or th
27、ree names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later.Go early.Consider going early to conferences, parties and classes. Sometimes just
28、a few people show up on time. Thats fewer names for you to remember. And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to others an automatic review for you.51. How will most people feel when you try hard to remember their names?A. They will be moved.B. They will be annoyed.C. They will
29、be delighted.D. They will be discouraged.52. If you cant remember someones name, you may _.A. tell him the truthB. tell him a white lieC. ask him for pityD. ask others to help you53. To reinforce the association, you make between the person and something interesting, you may _. A. write them downB.
30、say it to yourself several timesC. go early to partiesD. spell and pronounce the name correctly54. When you meet a group of people, it is better to remember _.A. all their namesB. a couple of names firstC. just their last namesD. as many names as possible55. What does the text mainly tell us?A. Tips
31、 on an important social skill.B. Importance of attending parties.C. How to make use of associations.D. How to recite and repeat names.BOne day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the summer. This was one more weapon for her
32、 to defeat my strange problem inability to read.In the library, I found my way into the “Childrens Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only ani
33、mal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.There on the books cover was a beagle which looked identical to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the
34、 dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages we
35、re turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued the final scene of reunion, on and on, unti
36、l my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together.My mothers call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to rea
37、d them.I never told my mother about my “miraculous” (奇迹般地) experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in literature, and authored hi
38、s own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.56. The authors mother told him to borrow a book in order to_.A. encourage him to do more walkingB. let him spend a meaningful summerC. help cure him of his reading problemD. make him learn more about weapons57. The book caug
39、ht the authors eye because_.A. it contained pretty pictures of animalsB. it reminded him of his own dogC. he found its title easy to understandD. he liked childrens stories very much58.

The author has become a successful writer.B. The authors mother read the same book.C. The authors mother rewarded him with books.D. Th
41、e author has had happy summers ever since.60. Which one could be the best title of the passage?A. The Charm of a BookB. Mums Strict OrderC. Reunion with My BeagleD. My Passion for ReadingCSome people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and other
42、s believe that success mostly comes down to luck. Im not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances dont come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and thats just the reality of what life is.However, to succeed in life,
43、 one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practising. To become great at certain things, itll require even more time, time that most people wont p
44、ut in.This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you dont enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will be likely to make you quit well before you ever become good at it.When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having ach
45、ieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. Its sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and theres a huge chance that youre wrong anyway.Whatever you do, if
46、you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If youre not willing to put in the time and work, dont expect to receive any rewards. Consistent hard work wont guarantee you the level of success you may want, but
47、it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.61. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about _.A. the reasons for successB. the meaning of successC. the standards of successD. the importance of success62.

48、 being good at somethingB. setting a practical goalC. putting in more timeD. succeeding in life63. Successful people suggest doing what one loves because _.A. work makes one feel painB. one tends to enjoy his workC. one gives up his work easilyD. it takes a lot of time to succeed64. What can we infe
49、r from Paragraph 4?A. Successful people like to show their great skills.B. People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.C. People need to achieve success at the cost of life.D. It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.65. What is the main theme of the passage?A. Having a goal is vit
50、al to success.B. Being good is different from being great.C. One cannot succeed without time and practice.D. Luck, talent and family help to achieve success.DExperts recently suggested that teens should start having early bedtimes. Before you think it as a habit suited only for young kids, consider
51、that there are serious advantages in being well-rested. And now, even more research suggests that putting phones away before going to sleep is important to teens well-being.A new study from Seton Hall University School of Health and Medicine Science found that 62 percent of kids used their smart pho
52、nes before bed, and its causing less sleep and poor performance in school.Those teens who text before bedtime tend to go to sleep later, and get up later in the morning. Such behavior can be associated with mental health illnesses like depression or anxiety. Besides, once teens do receive a text, ex
53、perts found, they tend to respond right away. Then the text conversation continues leading to an even later bedtime.The studys co-author Dr. Peter Polos says this leads to excessive stimulation(过度刺激) at night. Light from electronic devices can prevent the secretion(分泌) of melatonin a hormone(荷尔蒙) th
54、at promotes sleep, which makes sleep difficult in the face of overuse of smart phones at night. Its true! More screen time means less sleep time; other studies have suggested the same idea.As for a final piece of advice, Dr. SushanthBhat says, since getting the proper amount of sleep is very importa
55、nt for brain development and learning in the teenage years, our study should encourage parents and guardians (监护人) to limit the smart phone usage of kids at night. Keep in mind that teens arent the only ones addicted to their phones! Adults can also benefit from setting a tech curfew(宵禁) for themsel
