When I was in high school,I played in a rock band with friends in my class.We were devoted and practiced constantly.We moved past the guys-in-a-garage stage and 4 to be pretty good,doing getting-paid gigs (演奏会) most weekends,which made me 5 .At that time,though part of me was 6 up in that band,another part of me was the oldest son in the Clark family, 7 of my origin and a dedicated student busy applying to colleges.Without even telling my parents,I applied to Harvard.I didnt think I had much chance of getting in, 8 I wanted to try.So I was riding around being Mr. Cool Rock Musician half of the time,and the other half I was focused on family and 9 goals.I was running on parallel 10 . When the group won a citywide Battle of the Bands,things heated up.My bandmates had stars in their eyeswe might be able to make it big.However,I began to feel 11 .I realized I was on quite different tracks：I 12 was becoming two people, 13 identities back and forth depending on who I was with.I had to make an option.As I considered my 14 ,my parents words were right there,helping me to see that my dreams werent about signing a record deal,letting my hair grow,and living in a tour bus.So I 15 out.My bandmates were 16 .They thought I was crazy to withdraw 17 the peak of real success.But however successful that band got,I knew it wasnt in line with my 18 ,with my feeling of what I was 19 to do,with who I wasit simply wasnt me. In that instant and in many others throughout my life,my parents advice has helped me recenter and 20 .I could remember who I wasthe hopes and dreams I carried. 1A.property Badvice Cguide Daid 2A.when Bbefore Cwhile Dsince 3A.come up with Bstand up to C live up to Dkeep pace with 4A.got Bfailed Choped Dattempted 5A.lost Bdisappointed Cconfused Dthrilled 6A.wrapped Bcentred Cspent Doffered 7A.scared Bproud Cguilty Dashamed 8A.if Bunless Cuntil Dyet 9A.economic Bpolitical Cacademic Dliterary 10A.tracks Bways Cprocesses Ddirections 11A.confident Boptimistic Ccheerful Duncomfortable 12A.exactly Bactually Ceventually Dfortunately 13A.switching Bacting Cdiscovering Dseeking 14A.conditions Bchoices Ccompetence Dhealth 15A.gave Blooked Ccalled Ddropped 16A.disturbed Bcool Cshocked Dtolerant 17A.in Bto Cby Dat 18A.goals Binterests Cpersonality Dconsideration 19A.meant Bdemanded Cforced Daimed 20A.recall Brefocus Crebuild DreuniteBWhy You Should Celebrate Your MistakesWhen you make a mistake, big or small, cherish(珍视) it like its the most precious thing in the world. Because in some ways, it is.Most of us feel bad when we make mistakes, beat ourselves up about it, feel like failures, get mad at ourselves.And thats only natural: most of us have been taught from a young age that mistakes are bad, that we should try to avoid mistakes. Weve been scolded when we make mistakesat home, school and work. Maybe not always, but probably enough times to make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction.Yet without mistakes, we could not learn or grow. If you think about it that way, mistakes should be cherished and celebrated for being one of the most amazing things in the world: they make learning possible; they make growth and improvement possible.By trial and errortrying things, making mistakes, and learning from those mistakeswe have figured out how to make electric light, to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, to fly.Mistakes make walking possible for the smallest toddler, make speech possible, make works of genius possible.Think about how we learn: we dont just consume information about something and instantly know it or know how to do it. You dont just read about painting, or writing, or computer programming, or baking, or playing the piano, and know how to do them right away. Instead, you get information about something, from reading or from another person or from observing usually . then you construct a model in your mind . then you test it out by trying it in the real world . then you make mistakes . then you revise the model based on the results of your real-world experimentation . and repeat, making mistakes, learning from those mistakes, until you've pretty much learned how to do something. Thats how we learn as babies and toddlers, and how we learn as adults. Mistakes are how we learn to do something newbecause if you succeed at something, its probably something you already knew how to do. You havent really grown much from that successat most its the last step on your journey, not the whole journey. Most of the journey was made up of mistakes, if its a good journey.So if you value learning, if you value growing and improving, then you should value mistakes. They are amazing things that make a world of brilliance possible.21. Why do most of us feel bad about making mistakes?A. Because mistakes make us suffer a lot.B. Because its a natural part in our life.C. Because weve been taught so from a young age.D. Because mistakes have ruined many people's careers.22. According to the passage, what is the right attitude to mistakes?A. We should try to avoid making mistakes.B. We should owe great inventions mainly to mistakes.C. We should treat mistakes as good chances to learn.D. We should make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction.23. The underlined word “toddler” in Paragraph Six probably means _.A. a small child learning to walkB. a kindergarten child learning to drawC. a primary pupil leafing to readD. a school teenager learning to write24. We can learn from the passage that _.A. most of us can really grow from successB. growing and improving are based on mistakesC. we learn to make mistakes by trial and errorD. we read about something and know how to do it right awayC“Most experiences of absent - mindednessforgetting where you left something or wondering why you just entered a roomare caused by a simple lack of attention, “ says Schacter. “Youre supposed to remember something, but you havent encoded(编码) it deeply.”Encoding, Schacter explains, is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major impression on recalling it later. Failure to encode properly can create troublesome situations. If youput your mobile phone in a pocket, for example, and dont pay attention to what you did because youre involved in a conversation, youll probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in your cupboard.” Your memory itself isnt failing you, “ says Schacter, “Rather, you didnt give your memory system the information it needed.”Lack of interest can also lead to absent -mindedness. “A man who can recite sports statistics from 30 years ago, “ says Zelinski, “ may not remember to drop a letter in the mailbox.”Women have slightly better memories than men, possibly because they pay more attention to their environment, and memory relies on just that.“Visual cues(视觉提示)can help prevent absent- mindedness, “says Schacter, “But be sure the cue is clear and available. “If you want to remember to take a medicine with lunch, put the pill bottle on the kitchen tabledont leave it in the medicine box and write yourself a note that you keep in a pocket.Another common experience of absent - mindedness: walking into a room and wondering why youre there. Most likely, you were thinking about something else. “Everyone does this from time to time, “says Zelinski. “The best thing to do is to return to where you were before entering the room, and youll likely remember.”25The writer of the passage thinks that encoding properly is very important because _.A. it enables us to recall something from our memoryB. it slows down the process of losing our memoryC. it helps us understand our memory system betterD. it helps us to get back to where we were26One possible reason why women have a little better memories than men is that_.A. they rely more on the environmentB. they have a wider range of interestsC. they have an unusual power of focusing their attentionD. they are more interested in whats happening around them27Why can a note in the pocket hardly serve as a reminder? _.A. It will easily get lostB. It is out of your sightC. Its not clear enough for you to readD. It might get mixed up with other things28From the last paragraph we can learn that_.A. repetition might help improve our memoryB. memory depends to a certain extent on the environmentC. wed better return to where we were if we forget thingsD. we should think about something else while doing one thingDThere are two factors which determine an individual's intelligence. The first is the sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to the individualthe sort of environment in which he is reared. If an individual is handicapped envionmentally ,it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.The importance of environment in determining an individual's intellingence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark X. Being identical, the twins had identical brains at birth, and their growth processes were the same. When the twins were three months old , their parents died, and they were placed in separate foster homes. Peter was reated by parents of low intelligence in an isolatedcommunity with poor educational pooprtunities.Mark was reared inthe home of well-to-do parents who had been to college. He was read to as a child , sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually.This enviromental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were giben tesets to measure their intelligence. Mark's I.Q. was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother. Given equal opportunities , the twins , having identical brains,would have tested at roughly the same level.29.This selection can best be titled_.A.Measuring Your IntelligenceB.Intelligence and EnvironmentC.The Case of Peter and MarkD.How the brain Influences Intelligence30.The beststatement of the main idea of this passage is that _.A.human brains differ considerablyB.the brain a person is born with is improtant in determining his intelligenceC.environment is crucial in determining a person's intelligenceD. persons having identical brains will have roughly the same intelligence31.According to the passage , the average I.Q.is _.A.85 B.100 C.110 D.125完形填空、阅读理解综合训练（一）参考答案1B 2A 3C 4A 5D 6A 7B 8D 9C 10A 11D 12B 13A 14B 15D 16C 17D 18A 19A 20B 21.C 22.C 23.A 24.B25A第二段第一、二句即为答案26D本文第三段即为答案27B本文第四段说的视觉提示,放进口袋看不见28B周围环境可提示人要做什么29.B 30.C 31.B
