Ma used to judge things with his own mind.CSome 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 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, toil (苦干) 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.27.Paragraph 1 mainly talks about _.A. the reasons for success B. the meaning of successC. the standards of success D. the importance of success28.Successful people suggest doing what one loves because _.A. work makes one feel pain B. one tends to enjoy his work C. one gives up his work easily D. it takes a lot of time to succeed29.What can we infer from Paragraph 4?A. Successful people like to show their great skills.B. People need to achieve success at the cost of life.C. People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.D. It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.30.What could be the best title for the text?A. Success the child of talent and luck B. Success altitude rather than attitudeC. Time and tide wait for no man D. Time and toil make for success第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 There are some people who seem to always be surrounded by friends, and there are others who always seem to be standing on the outside, looking in at the crowds of friends. 31 , it is time to break out of your shell and start making new friends.
