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 how life is. however, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. and, in addition tothat, in order to be really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. to become great at certain things, itll require even more time, time that most people wont put 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 likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.when you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved 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 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 it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.21. paragraph 1 mainly talks about _.z-x-x-k.com a. the reasons for success b. the meaning of successc. the standards of success d. the importance of success22. .in paragraph 2,the underlined word that refers to _.a. being good at something b. setting a practical goalc. putting in more time d. succeeding in life23. .what can we infer 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.24.what is the main theme of the passage?a. having a goal is vital 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.【答案】21.a22.b23.b24.c考点：考查人生百味类阅读【名师点睛】本篇是一篇说明文，主要说明了作者眼中成功是如何取得的，即需要付出大量的时间和联系。首先要找到主要说明的内容。往往这类题目的主要内容都会在首段亮相。如：通过第一段可知，本文主要讲了成功是如何取得的。然后需要理清文章思路和层次，学会概括每段大意，如本篇的大纲如下：段落关键词、句大意推测第一部分（para.

centuries, medical pioneers have refined a variety of methods and medicines to treat sickness, injury, and disability, enabling people to live longer and healthier lives. “a salamander (a small lizard-like animal) can grow back its leg. why cant a human do the same?” asked peruvian-born surgeon dr. anthony atala in a recent interview. the question, a reference to work aiming to grow new limbs for wounded soldiers, captures the inventive spirit of regenerative medicine. this innovative field seeks to provide patients with replacement body parts. these parts are not made of steel; they are the real things - living cells, tissue, and even organs. regenerative medicine is still mostly experimental, with clinical applications limited to procedures such as growing sheets of skin on burns and wounds. one of its most significant advances took place in 1999，when a research group at north carolinas wake forest institute for regenerative medicine conducted a successful organ replacement with a laboratory-grown bladder. since then, the team, led by dr. atala, has continued to generate a variety of other tissues and organs 一 from kidneys to ears. the field of regenerative medicine builds on work conducted in the early twentieth century with the first successful transplants of donated human soft tissue and bone. however, donor organs are not always the best option. first of all, they are in short supply, and many people die while waiting for an available organ; in the united states alone, more than 100,000 people are waiting for organ transplants. secondly, a patients body may ultimately reject the transplanted donor organ. an advantage of regenerative medicine is that the tissues are grown from a patients own cells and will not be rejected by the bodys immune system. today, several labs are working to create bioartificial body parts. scientists at columbia and yale universities have grown a jawbone and a lung. at the university of minnesota, doris taylor has created a beating bioartificial rat heart. dr. atalas medical team has reported long-term success with bioengineered bladders implanted into young patients with spina bifida (a birth defect that involves the incomplete development of the spinal cord). and at the university of michigan, h. david humes has created an artificial kidney. so far, the kidney procedure has only been used successfully with sheep, but there is hope that one day similar kidney will be implantable in a human patient. the continuing research of scientists such as these may eventually make donor organs unnecessary and, as a result, significantly increase individuals z-x-x-kchances of survival.28. in the latest field of regenerative medicine, what are replacement parts made of?a. cells, tissues and organs of ones own.b. rejected cells, tissues and organs.c. donated cells, tissues and organs.d. cells, tissues and organs made of steel.29.what have scientists experimented successfully on for a bioartificial kidney?a. patients. b. rats. c. soldiers. d. sheep.30.why is generative medicine considered innovative?a. it will strengthen the human bodys immune system.b. it will provide patients with replacement soft tissues.c. it will make patients live longer with bioartificial organs.d. it will shorten the time patients waiting for a donated organ.31.what is the writers attitude towards regenerative medicine?a. doubtful. b. reserved. c. positive. d. negative.【答案】28.a29.d30.c31.c考点：考查社会生活类阅读dmoocs (massive open online courses) are free, but without tutoring, and are open to anyone, anywhere inthe world. the courses are flexible normally three to five hours of study a week done at any time, short (5 to 10 weeks) and video-rich. they are also heavily dependent on crowd sourcing: you can discuss a course with fellow students through online forums, discussion boards and peer review. students dont have to finish the courses, pass z-x-x-k.comassessments or do assignments, but, if they do, they get a certification of participation. the open university launched futurelearn, the uks answer to us platforms such as coursera, edx and udacity, which have been offering moocs from top us universities for the past two years. the response has been incredible, with more than three million people registering worldwide. meanwhile, in 2012, edinburgh university became the first non-us institution to join courseras partnership, comprising 13 universities. “we already run 50 online masters degrees, so this was a logical expansion,” says professor jeff haywood, edinburghs vice-principal. “its an investment in teaching methods research. how am i going to teach introductory philosophy to 100,000 people? thats what i call educational r&d.” he adds “if you look ahead 10 years, youd expect all students graduating to have taken some online courses, so youve got to research that. our moocs are no more in competition with our degrees than a lifelong learning course because they dont carry credits.”cooperation is key, haywood stresses. it is far better to offer 20-30 courses in your own areas of expertise (专门技能) and let other institutions do likewise. professor mike sharples, futurelearns academic lead, goes further: “weve tied the elements available before into a package of courses offered by leading universities worldwide on a new software platform, with a new way of promoting it and also a new social-learning teaching method. you wont just receive an exam, but be able to discuss and mark each others assignments.”bath university, one of more than 20 universities working with futurelearn, launches its first course, inside cancer, next january, and regards moocs as a way of breaking down age barriers. theres no reason why someone doing gcses should not look at our moocs and get quite a way through them, or someone at phd level and beyond, says professor bernie morley, expert for learning and teaching.32. .moocs have these features except that _.a. moocs have a platform for learners to share their learning experienceb. moocs provide teachers instructions if you have some difficulty c. moocs can be adjusted according to peoples learning paced. moocs are free of charge for anyone33. .the response to future learn has been thought to be unbelievable mainly because _.a. all the courses on the platform are available to anyone in the worldb. the number of people registering in the platform is beyond expectation c. edinburgh university became the first non-us institution to join itd. students can get a certification of participation without passing assessments 34. .what can be inferred from professor bernie morley in the last paragraph?a. moocs are not so competitive as lifelong learning courses due to the problems of credits.b. inside cancer will be the most popular course for someone doing gcses.c. people at phd level have already known everything about moocs.d. people with various learning levels will probably show interest in moocs.35. .the passage mainly deals with _.a. the advantages of online teaching methodsb. the various opinions on futurelearnc. the appearance of a new learning platformd.
