Even if they never see their results, they feel that their IQ is 36 determines how well they are going to do in life. When they see other students doing 37 than them, they usually believe those students have 38 higher IQ and 39 there is nothing they can do to change facts. However, new research 40 EQ suggests that success is not simply result of a high IQ.While your IQ tells you how 41 (intelligence) you are, your EQ tells you how well you are using your intelligence. Professor Salovery, 42 invented the term EQ, gives the following description: At work, it is IQ 43 gets you promoted. 44 (support) by his academic research, Professor Salovery suggests that when predicting someones future success, their character, 45 measured by EQ tests, might actually matter more than their IQ.第三部分 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项。AEdisons Failed InventionsEdison had 1,093 patents for different inventions. Many of them, like the light bulb, the phonograph, and the motion picture camera, were brilliant creations that have a huge influence on our everyday life. However, not everything he created was a success; he also had a few failures.One concept that never took off was Edisons interest in using cement to build things. He formed the Edison Portland Cement Co. in 1899, and made everything from cabinets(for phonograph) to pianos and houses. Unfortunately, at the time, concrete was too expensive and the idea was never accepted. Cement wasnt a total failure, though. His company was hired to build Yankee Stadium in Bronx. What else do you think Edison tried to create?From the beginning of the creation of motion pictures, many people tried to combine film and sound to make “talking” motion pictures. Here you can see an example of an early film attempting to combine sound with pictures made by Edisons assistant, W.K.L.Dickson.By 1895, Edison had created the kinetophonea kinetoscope (peep-hole motion picture viewer) with a phonograph that played inside the cabinet. Sound could be heard through two ear tubes while the viewer watched the images. This creation never really took off, and by 1915 Edison abandoned the idea of sound motion pictures.The greatest failure of Edisons career was his inability to create a practical way to mine iron ore. He worked on mining methods through the late 1880s and early 1890s to supply the Pennsylvania steel mills demand for iron ore. In order to finance this work, he sold all his stock in General Electric, but was never able to create a separator that could extract iron from unusable, low-grade ores. Eventually, Edison gave up on the idea, but by then he had lost all the money hed invested.46. Among all of his 1,093 patents, which of the following is NOT his?A. Light bulb. B. Telephone.C. Phonograph. D. Motion picture camera.47. Which failure made him lost all his investment?A. The way to mine iron ore. B. The talking motion pictures.C. Using the cement to build things. D. The light bulb.48. Why was the cement to build things not totally successful in 1899?A. Because he failed in inventing the cement.B. Because the cement was not as firm as that of today.C. Because his idea was not accepted at that time.D. Because his company closed down.49. What can we learn about Edison?A. Edison was a successful businessman.B. Edison only devoted all his time to the invention.C. Edison had only two failures.D. Edison was both an inventor and a businessman.50. What can we infer from the passage?A. Edison succeeded in all his inventions.B. Edison was a lucky bird then.C. Americans were conservative in 1899.D. Even a famous man experienced failure.BSo what does this have to do with healthy eating and nutrition? Can eating an apple a day actually keep the doctor away? Well, it can help. Studies show that people eat a lot of fruits and vegetables do better against free radicals and live healthier lives. Fruits and veggies contain hundreds of substances (物质) called physiochemical; compounds（化合物）that play essential roles in fighting disease and helping maintain health by boosting the health of our cells.The more physiochemical you consume, the lower your risk of disease will be. Eating the minimum five servings of fruits and vegetables each day, for example, can lower your risk of cancer by 20 percent. And the more healthy food you eat, the more your body will benefit. At a Colorado research centre, a study of 80 women at high risk for breast cancer found that those who ate 10 servings of fruits and vegetables a day for two weeks experienced significant reductions in cancer-associated cell damage. A group of breast-cancer survivors in a similar University of Arizona study showed comparable improvements.Of course, you can get benefit from the disease-fighting powers of physiochemical if you do eat enough of them. Unfortunately, the typical Western diet is short on foods rich in these nutrients（养分）. Recently, a major survey of eating habits in North America found that a large meal only contains 25 percent of the vegetables. People reported eating each day were actually French fries. And although the occasional order of greasy fries wont kill you, its not exactly what Canadas Food Guide to Healthy Eating had in mind when it recommended five to ten servings a day.If fitting more vegetables, fruits, and grains into your diet sounds too difficult or unappealing, keep an open mind. Do you like blueberry pancakes? Or pizza with tomato sauce? Both contain immune-boosting nutrients. Who knows, you just might have the ability for a healthy meal in your own kitchen pantry (食品室) right now! The free radicals are shaking in their boots.51. Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage?A. Physiochemical. B. Benefits of eating fruits and vegetables.C. The power of food. D. How to cure cancer?52. The underlined word “consume” in the 2nd paragraph probably means . A. use energy B. destroy C. forget it D. eat or drink it53. Which of the following statements is right according to the passage? A. Eating five servings of fruits and vegetables each day can lower your risk of cancer by 80% B. the typical western diet is rich in nutrients. C. Fruits and vegetables contain hundreds of physiochemical. D. breast cancer can be cured by eating fruits.54. We can learn from the passage that . A. We can cook healthy food in our own kitchen. B. You must go to special restaurant to eat diet. C. veggies contain much fat D. fries can kill you55. It can be inferred from the text that . A. physiochemical can fight disease and help maintain health B. pizza with tomato sauce is not healthy eating C. meat is healthy eating D. hum burg is healthy eatingCMalaria, the worlds most widespread parasitic(寄生虫引起的) disease, kills as many as three million people every yearalmost all of whom are under five, very poor, and African. In most years, more than five hundred million cases of illness result from the disease, although exact numbers are difficult to assess because many people dont (or cant) seek care. It is not unusual for a family earning less than two hundred dollars a year to spend a quarter of its income on malaria treatment, and what they often get no longer works. In countries like Tanzania, Mozambique, and the Gambia, no family, village, hospital, or workplace can remain unaffected for long. Malaria starts suddenly, with violent chills, which are soon followed by an intense fever and, often, headaches. As the parasites multiply, they take over the entire body. Malaria parasites live by eating the red blood cells they infect. They can also attach themselves to blood vessels （血管）in the brain. If it doesnt kill you, malaria can happen again and again for years. The disease passed on to humans by female mosquitoes infected with one of four species of parasite. Together, the mosquito and the parasite are the most deadly couple in the history of the earthand one of the most successful. Malaria has five thousand genes, and its ability to change rapidly to defend itself and resist new drugs has made it nearly impossible to control. Studies show that mosquitoes are passing on the virus more frequently, and there are more outbreaks in cities with large populations. Some of the diseases spread is due to global warming.For decades, the first-choice treatment for malaria parasites in Africa has been chloroquine, a chemical which is very cheap and easy to make. Unfortunately, in most parts of the world, malaria parasites have become resistant to it. Successful alternatives that help prevent resistance are already available, but they have been in short supply and are very expensive. If these drugs should fail, nobody knows what would come next.56. According to Paragraph 1, many people dont seek care because_.A. they are too poor B. it is unusual to seek careC. they can remain unaffected for long D. there are too many people suffering from the disease57. People suffering from malaria_.A. have to kill female mosquitoes B. have ability to defend parasitesC. have their red blood cells infected D. have sudden fever, followed by chills58. Which of the following may be the reason for the wide spread of the disease?A. Its resistance to global warming. B. Its ability to pass on the virus frequently.C. Its outbreaks in cities with large populations.D. Its ability to defend itself and resist new drugs.59. It can be inferred from the passage that_.A. no drugs have been found to treat the diseaseB. the alternative treatment is not easily available to most peopleC. malaria has developed its ability to resist parasitesD. nobody knows what will be the drug to treat the disease60. Which of the following questions has NOT been discussed in the passage?A. How can we know one is suffering from malaria?B. How many people are killed by malaria each year?C. Why are there so many people suffering from malaria？D. What has been done to keep people unaffected for long？第四部分： 第一节 单词拼写（共10小题，每小题1分，满分为10分）根据句意完成单词，在空格里写出恰当形式的英语单词，每空一词，将答案填在答题卡上。61.
