southeast to the nations capital.bai xiaolong,a 30yearold truck driver,says it took him five days to make the 350mile journey from inner mongolia to tianjin.he spent much of that time reading,textmessaging and sleeping rather than speeding up.“there was one day that i didnt move,not even an inch,” said bai,an inhabitant of jining in inner mongolia,a city at the western end of the traffic jam.chinese officials said that the congestion is mainly because of the maintenance(维护) projects that began in midaugust and are scheduled to be completed in midseptember.trucks carrying 8 tons or more of coal or fruit have been responsible for damaging the roadway,thus making the work necessary.drivers who often use the route know that heavy traffic has long been a fact of life.“the problem is really that therere too many cars and trucks and not enough lanes(车道),” bai said.“we drivers are used to this sort of thing happening.”the two national freeways are heavily used by trucks carrying coal from the recently opened fields of inner mongolia to chinas coastal cities.the seemingly endless jam began on the 6 and spread to the 110,which runs parallel(平行的),when officials sought to ease the traffic on the 6.the global times,an englishlanguage newspaper,said the jam had eased somewhat in the last two days,but inhabitants of the region say the congestion simply spilled out onto other roads.the congestion has created an economy of its own.vendors(小贩) sell boxed lunches,noodles and drinking water to the travelers,often at jackedup prices.and because of the longstanding problems along the highways,dozens of small hotels have appeared,attracting drivers who need a stop to catch more serious sleep.1.during the congestion,bai xiaolong did all the following except_.a.sleeping b.textmessagingc.speeding up d.reading2.what can we infer from the text?a.bai xiaolong was born in tianjin.b.the problem of traffic jams in china will be solved soon.c.chinese officials think it is necessary to build more lanes.d.the local people dont think the congestion has eased.3.the underlined word “jackedup” in the last paragraph probably means “_”.a.high b.rightc.special d.low4.what would be the best title of the passage?a.the congestion creates an economy of its ownb.traffic jam near beijing stretches on for daysc.the traffic has improved in beijingd.truck drivers in china live a hard lifebsome people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family,and others believe that success mostly comes 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 to that,in order to get really good at something,one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practising.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.5.paragraph 1 mainly talks about _.a.the reasons for successb.the meaning of successc.the sta
