ashe looked for its owner bshe gave it to ann as a gift.cshe sold it to the dollar store.dshe bought some food for it.26how did the dog help save jack? aby breaking the door for ann.bby leading ann to jacks room.cby dragging jack out of the room.dby attending jack when ann was out.27for what purpose did peter call tracy?

if you arent sure, you are far from being alone in your confusion. in fact, decades of research on achievement suggests that successful people reach their goals not simply because of who they are, but more often because of what they do. 36 1get specificwhen you set yourself a goal, try to be as specific as possible. lose 5 pounds is a better goal than lose some weight because it gives you a clear idea of what success looks like. 37 also, think about the specific actions that need to be taken to reach your goal.2 38 considering how busy most of us are, its not surprising that we often miss opportunities to act on a goal because we simply fail to notice them. did you really have no time to work out today? no chance at any point to return that phone call? achieving your goal means seize these opportunities before they slip through your fingers.3know exactly how far you have left to goachieving any goal also requires honest and regular monitoring （监督）of your progressif not by others, then by you yourself. if you dont know how well you are doing, you cant adjust your behavior accordingly. 39 it is my hope that you have gained some insight （认识）into all the things you have been doing right all along. remember: 40 its never what you are, but what you do.await for opportunities to appear bseize the moment to act on your goals.chere are things successful people do differently.dnext ill talk about my own experience on how to achieve success.eyou dont need to become a different person to become a more successful one.fcheck your progress frequently weekly, or even daily, depending on the goal.gknowing exactly what you want to achieve keeps you motivated until you get there.第三部分：语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面的短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）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。the other day i was having a meal in an italian restaurant when i got a phone call from a long lost friend. in my excitement i talked slightly 41 than usual and in spanish, my mother tongue. a few minutes into the 42 the lady sitting at the table beside mine got up, seemingly 43 , and asked the restaurant worker to find for her another 44 as far away as possible from me. i 45 in my seat out of embarrassment（尴尬）, feeling the 46 to go over and apologize（道歉）. i looked around and 47 the lady was alone and staring out the window at the table furthest away from me. i was about to stand up when it hit me that she might prefer not to be 48 . right then i 49 up my plans for a conventional（常规的） apology and decided to conduct an experiment. seeing those 50 smile cards in my wallet i took one out. on signing my restaurant check i asked my waiter to 51 charge the ladys meal to my credit card and 52 her a smile card instead of her bill. when i was 53 i told the worker i would be back in a few hours to pick up my credit card and close the bill. i returned later as i promised, excited to learn the 54 of the experiment. to my pleasant surprise, things 55 the best possible way. the restaurant worker happily came up to me, telling me that for many times she had had dinner there before 56 had they seen the old lady smile and laugh like she did 57 receiving the smile card and the $0 58 . she thanked the workers 59 they explained that someone else did the job. to top it off, the worker asked me about the smile cards so as to conduct their own 60 .it was an interesting, fun experiment which may hopefully result in many more. 41abetter blouder cmore dfaster42aspeechbquarrelcfight dcall43atired bworried cconfused dannoyed44achair broomctable dspace45asank blay ctook dgot46aurge bpity canger dforce47aheard brecognizedcfound dtold48aattracted bwatched cdisturbed dnoticed49amade bgave cdeveloped dhad50auselessbfunny cugly dstrange51aslightlybdeliberately cinstantly dsecretly52ahand bdrawcbuy ddrop53aleavingbstarting ccoming darriving54aeffects bresultcprocedure drules55afigured outbworked out cturned out dwent out56aever bevencnever dstill57awith bto con dat58agift b.check cnote dexpense59aeven thoughbunlesscas though dbecause60abusinesses brestaurants cshops dexperiments第ii卷（非选择题 共60分）第二节（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于三个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。but how could the survivors believe it was 61._ （nature）?
