25、读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，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。 A Year of Giving Yesterday I started the Year of Giving, my first day of a year-long journey into exploring the act of giving and the meaning of charity. I choseDecember 15 as the starting date, which marked three years since my mother died from h

26、eart disease. She was one of the most generous people that I have ever known. She always thought of others first and certainly serves as an inspiration to me. I had a rather busy day yesterday, ironic (具有讽刺意义的) for someone who is unemployed right now. In the morning I went to the gym, and unsuccessf

27、ully got the phone call from the unemployment office for some job searching. Before I knew it, it was noon. I grabbed a quick lunch and rushed down to a meeting. On my way to Connecticut, I wondered if I would see someone that I would feel forced to give my first $ 10 to. I was running late and deci

28、ded to do it afterwards. After the meeting I had about half an hour to find the first person of my Year of Giving! I decided to check out DuPont Circle. I had met a guy there named Jerry once and thought he would willing accept my $ 10. He wasnt there, but I did see a man sitting by himself who look

29、ed really lonely, so I approached him. Now I had to figure out what I was going to say, I think I said something like, “Hi, can I sit down here?” “I would like to know if I could give you $ 10?” He asked me to repeat what I had said, I did, then he looked at me funny, got up and left. I then started

30、 walking south where I spotted a man standing by the bus stop on Connecticut Ave. He appeared to be in his 60s. I dont know what drew me to him, but I thought I would make my second attempt. I was a bit nervous and asked him which bus came by that stop. Then I explained that I was starting a year-lo

31、ng project to give $ 10 to someone every day and that I wanted to give my $ 10 for today to him. The gentleman, I later found out that his name was Ed, responded without hesitation that he could not accept my offer and that there were many people more deserving the money than him. This was exactly o

32、ne of the things that I hoped would happen. People would think of others before themselves. 56. The author set the starting date on December 15 to _.A.help the charity B. remember his mother C. make an explosionD. fulfill a wish if his mum 57. In the authors first attempt to give away the money, _.A

33、. he was considered ridiculous B. he hesitated for a long time C. he was forced to donate the money D. he had no time to take action 58. In the authors second attempt, the gentleman refused his offer because _.A. he didnt need others help B. he thought more for others C. he didnt care about money D.

34、 he wanted to get more money 59. We can refer that the author was inspired by _.A. true friendship B. his own kindness C. generous donations D. humans good nature B Mars on Earth Devon Islander has always been a cold and uninhabited(无人居住的) place in the Canadian Arctic. Day after day there are high w

35、inds and the temperature is below freezing. But for the first time, despite the terrible weather conditions .Devon Islander is the new home for a group of explorers from NASA. They are living here for a months in order to train and learn how to live and work on Mars. The groups members come from var

36、ious backgrounds and nationalities, but they all have the same purpose: to find out how people can live on Mars in the future. They have chosen Devon Islander because the environment and landscape is similar in many ways to Mars. The surface is freezing cold and the ground is rough. However, there a

37、re some differences on Mars, where the atmosphere is poisonous to breathe, Devon Islander is easier to travel to and it has its own dangers that you wont find on Mars. For example, you might meet a hungry polar bear on Devon Islander!One thing the learn wants to develop is suitable clothing for Mars

38、. This includes a space suit. The suit they are testing at the moment is strong enough but its too difficult and tiring. In addition, people will need to do experiment on Mars while wearing the suit so they have to be able to move around easily. One team member, Andy Overbeeke, specializes in space

39、suit engineering. He explains: “You have to think about what theyre really going to operate in.” Another part of daily life on Mars will be meals and food. Creating a new home on Mars requires a lot of food. So the big question is: can you grow plants in order to survive? Scientists believe that gro

40、wing plants on Mars might be possible. Mars and Earth have many similarities. They both have about the same amount of dry land and a 24-hour day. However, the atmosphere on Mars is totally different, so Canadian scientist Alain Berinstain is attempting to grow plants in a special greenhouse that you

41、 could also build on Mars. The greenhouse needs to run 365 days a year, so it uses a combination of solar energy and wind power. People living on Mars will also want their own transportation. For this, the team on Devon Island have built the “Martian Rover”. Its a huge heavy vehicle that can travel

42、over rocks and rough terrain. This kind of testing takes many days but so far the work has been valuable and effective. As a result, the whole team now believes their work is crucial and that its possible for humans to land on the planet Mars and create a home there. Addy Overbeeke adds, “We know th

43、at its mans destiny to go out and do space exploration. Its always time to think about what you want to do in the future.”60. The explorers are living on Devon Island to _.A. receive a training in astronomy B. set up an advanced research labC. learn how to live and work on Mars D. make a living in a

44、n uninhabited land 61. To keep food supply on Mars, people should _.A. create a new home B. improve the atmosphere C. build special greenhouses D. reduce the area of dry land 62. According to the passage, we know that _.A. humans may live on Mars in the futureB. Martian Rover has failed to stand the

45、 testC. Mars and Devon Island have the same soil conditionD. scientists have mastered the method to grow plants on Mars C While you may think that being smart and talented would logically make someone successful in running a business, unfortunately, this is often not the case. This problem starts ba

46、ck in school when the stressful “group projects” are first assigned .The smartest dont want to risk their grade in the class by dividing the work equally and hoping that art average student does his part well. They just take over and do the whole project themselves. And thus begins the smart-people

47、work cycle. The smartest people do just about everything better than most everyone else until it comes to running a business. They are not better; they are screwed. A smart person who cant stand someone else doing a job badly does everything himself. Then, he is stuck with the one-man band “job-busi

48、ness” and ends up not being able to grow. However, it is quite interesting and strange that some slacken are better suited to be a business leader than the “smart” people. The figured out early on to surround themselves with smart people who would do the work that they themselves dont want to do. Sm

49、art and talented people often have a gift for the unusual, complicated or different. They dont like to follow the KISS principle (keep it simple, stupid), which is required to make a business succeed. Maybe you think the global presence of McDonalds complex, but in reality, in the company, every sin

50、gle task is broken down into easy-to-follow steps and everything has been standardized. These successful companies have just a few smart enough people to run the majority of the tasks in a way that cant be screwed up by their average employees. So, being smart or talented isnt going to help you unle

51、ss you can use those smarts to figure out a way to simplify those tasks that will make a business successful. Another issue with the smart people starting businesses is that they often have the most to lose. The smarter you are, the more options you have available to you. You will be able to make a

52、lot of money in various fields and have room in your career to become promoted. This means that when you start a business, you have a lot more to risk than those who are not equally smart. This is often referred to as the“golden handcuffs”dilemma. So, dont be surprised when the person “MOST Likely to Succeed” from high school ends up as an employee and it is one average student that finds success in his or her own business.63. In group work, smart students often take over the whole pr
