“Luck is a matter of preparation meeting opportunity,” said the American talk show host Oprah Winfrey. I’ve never watched her show, but when a self-made billionaire gives life advice, it’s probably worth listening to.
Her point is that blind luck is very rare. You may have to be lucky to find a good job these days but that does not mean you should sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you. If you’re a Chinese,you may already be familiar with the tale of a farmer waiting by a tree stump (樹(shù)樁) for a rabbit to run out and break its neck.
A book written by the UK psychologist Richard Wiseman, called The Luck Factor, argues we can all make ourselves luckier. It’s not about going to a temple to burn some incense (香) in hopes that the gods will give you good fortune;it’s practical advice you can follow each day.
Wiseman conducted an experiment as part of his studies. First he separated volunteers into two groups:those who said they were lucky in life and those who said they were not. He gave everyone a newspaper and asked them to look through it to count how many photographs it had inside. On average, the unlucky people took about two minutes to count the photographs while the lucky people took just seconds. Why? On the second page of the newspaper, a command, “Stop counting. There are 43 photographs in this newspaper,” was written in big letters. The unlucky people mostly did not spot the message.
It’s easy to compare this situation to a young person looking for jobs in a local paper. They might search so hard for one type of position that they miss an even better opportunity. People who are “l(fā)ucky”, in fact, keep an open mind and don’t go through the same routine every day.
I first came to China in 2002 when it was considered a rather strange thing to do. Like many foreigners,my plan was to teach English for one year. Seven years later, and still here, I’ve had many great opportunities such as writing for newspapers and magazines. I did not dream these would have been possible. I’ve also never been sick, had an accident, got into a fight or had problems with the police. Coincidence? After reading about Professor Wiseman’s studies I think not.
As Wiseman advises, I usually trust my own judgment. Your friends and parents may give you advice based on rational thinking, but it’s important to consider how you feel about each choice you make. Your feeling acts as a warning for a potential problem.
Finally, try to turn bad luck into good.Even if you do fall down and break a leg, the time spent at home can be used wisely to study English.

[解題導(dǎo)語(yǔ)] 本文為議論文。作者認(rèn)為命運(yùn)只垂青那些有所準(zhǔn)備的人。身處逆境,不要怨天尤人,要想方設(shè)法化厄運(yùn)為好運(yùn)。每個(gè)人都可以做自己命運(yùn)的主人。
1. 解析:選A。 推理判斷題。Make the best of a bad job意為“身處山窮水盡,力爭(zhēng)柳暗花明”,與最后一段作者的觀點(diǎn)“try to turn bad luck into good(把厄運(yùn)變好運(yùn))”最為接近。故答案為A。Rome was not built in a day意為“偉業(yè)非一日可成”;All that glitters is not gold意為“閃光的東西并不都是金子”;A good heart conquers ill fortune意為“善心克厄運(yùn)”。
2. 解析:選D。 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的a self-made billionaire可知美國(guó)talk show主持人Oprah Winfrey是從白手起家,通過(guò)自我?jiàn)^斗而成功的。
3.解析:選C。 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段的內(nèi)容可以判斷,作者引用中國(guó)“守株待兔”的故事是為了說(shuō)明“人們不應(yīng)該待在家里等待機(jī)會(huì)的降臨”的觀點(diǎn)。
4.解析:選A。 詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)上文語(yǔ)境及The unlucky people mostly did not spot the message. 可知spot在句中用作及物動(dòng)詞,是“發(fā)現(xiàn),識(shí)別”之意。

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
As temperatures go up, bison(北美野牛)get smaller. Joseph Craine, research assistant professor in the Division of Biology at Kansas State University, examined how climate change during the next 50 years will affect grazing(放牧)animals such as bison and cattle in the Great Plains.
“Bison are one of our most important conservation animals and hold a unique role in grasslands in North America,” Craine said. “In addition to their cultural and ecological significance, they’re economically important. There are about half a million bison in the world.” Craine analyzed a data set of 290,000 weights, ages and sexes collected from 22 bison herds(獸群)throughout the U. S. The organizations kept annual records of each animal in the herd and matched the data with the climates of the sites.
Based on differences in sizes of bison across herds, Craine found that during the next 50 years, future generations of bison will be smaller in size and weigh less. Climate is likely to reduce the nutritional quality of grasses, causing the animals to grow more slowly.
“We know that temperatures are going to go up,” Craine said. “We also know that warmer grasslands have grasses with less protein(蛋白質(zhì)), and we now know that warmer grasslands have smaller grazers. It all lines up to suggest that climate change will cause grasses to have less protein and cause grazers to gain less weight in the future.”
Craine said the results of climate change in coming decades can already be seen by comparing bison in cooler, wetter places with those in warmer, drier places. For example, the average 7-year-old male bison in South Dakota weighed 1, 900 pounds, while an average 7- year-old male bison in Oklahoma — a warmer place — weighed 1, 300 pounds.
“The difference in temperature between those two states is around 20 degrees Fahrenheit, which is about three times the projected increase in temperatures over the next 75 years,” Craine said. “It is a clear indicator that long-term warming will affect bison and is something that will happen across the U.S. over the next 50-75 years.”

In 2006,Paul Letourneau of Worcester,Mass,lost his parents,his home and his pet dog.And that August,his life-long mild depression took a turn for the worse as he became suicidal(有自殺傾向的).
“I said I didn't want to be alive anymore,”Letourneau,67,recalled telling his best friend.
He and his friend had gone for a walk when Letourneau stopped and asked his friend about ways to die painlessly.His friend advised him to admit himself to a hospital.
“When I went back home,physically,I was shaking so much-and emotionally,I couldn't stop,”Letourneau said,“I knew I had to get help.”
For many men,it takes a lot more than feeling down to recognize that they are depressed and then step through the doors of a hospital,or a friend's or relative's home to ask for help.Men who are depressed usually refuse to get appropriate treatment,depression experts and patients say.
“When men get depressed,the depression can be quite severe,”said Dr.lan Cook,professor of psychiatry at the Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA.“The challenge is getting men to acknowledge that they're depressed.”
Depression affects about 15 million people in the United States,according to the National Institutes of Mental Health,and men get depressed about half as often as women.
“It's unclear how much of this is a reporting bias,”Cook said.“The stigma(恥辱)issues are somewhat different for men than they are for women.”
“Men intend to consider that asking for help is a sign of weakness,but when they can't complete the task of bringing themselves to the Promised Land,they become at risk.” said Steven Lappen,who was once a depression patient.

24.It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A.reports about men with depression are usually false
B.men are more likely to become depressed than women
C.most people with depression have lost their relatives
D.the actual number of men with depression is larger than reported

Looking at China's history over the past 60 years,it is apparent that,despite much suffering,the country has achieved huge political,economic and social success,especially during the past three decades.
The press center for the celebration of the 60th founding anniversary of new China was officially opened on the morning of September 22. Zha Shouchen,deputy director of the press center introduced that,during the National Day,there would be 3,200 domestic reporters,and more than 1,300 foreign journalists to come to Beijing to make the covering work.
The press center provided many services for domestic and foreign reporters,such as issuing the press cards to reporters,accepting the interview application,organizing press conferences and activities of group interviews,providing the means of communication and information services for reporters.And the following was the scene.
A grand parade in Beijing on Oct.1,led by the People's Liberation Army and the People's Armed Police Force,showed some of China's latest achievements in defense modernization.About 8,000 military officers,along with tanks and other vehicles,formed a straight line stretching 3 kms.
The military parade was followed by a civilian parade featuring six massive performing groups and 36 formations of about 100,000 people.In addition,60 floats(彩車)represented everything from the country's geographic areas to the previous year's Beijing Olympics.
Everyday life in China is a parade on a grand scale,with citizens now being able to enjoy things their ancestors did not dare to contemplate 100 years ago,things their grandparents took for luxury 60 years ago,and things their parents did not even know how to attempt 30 years ago.

Sons who have fond childhood memories of their fathers are more likely to be emotionally stable in the face of day-to-day stresses,according to psychologists who studied hundreds of adults of all ages.
“As our study shows,fathers do play a unique and important role in the mental health of their children much later in life,”P(pán)sychology professor Melanie Mallers of California State University said.
For this study,912 adult men and women between the ages of 25 and 74 completed short daily telephone interviews about that day's experiences over an eight-day period.The interviews focused on the participants' psychological and emotional distress (i.e.,whether they were nervous,sad,etc.) and if they had experienced any stressful events that day.
The participants were also required to answer questions such as,“How would you rate your relationship with your mother during the years when you were growing up?”and “How much time and attention did your mother give you when you needed it?”The same questions were asked about fathers.
People who reported they had a good mother-child relationship reported three percent less psychological distress compared to those who reported a poor relationship,according to Mallers.
Men who reported having a good relationship with their father during childhood were more likely to be less emotional when reacting to stressful events in their current daily lives than those who had a poor relationship,according to her findings.
Also,the quality of mother and father relationships was significantly associated with how many stressful events the participants faced on a daily basis.In other words,if they had a poor childhood relationship with both parents,they reported more stressful incidents over the eight-day study when compared to those who had a good relationship with their parents.
Mallers theorized why healthy or unhealthy relationships may have an effect on how people handle stress as adults,“Perhaps having caring parents equips children with the experiences and skills necessary to more successfully navigate their relationships with other people throughout childhood and into adulthood.”she said.
