0|show" data-onresultcheck="*redo|*.na|hide@*correct|*.na|hide@*reset|*.na|hide"> Doreetha Daniels became the focus of attention today during the graduation ceremony at the College of the Canyons. At 99, Daniels became the oldest graduate ever from this college, earning an associate degree in social sciences.

She’d been dreaming of going to college since she was a young girl growing up in Nebraska. Her final inspiration to go to school came when she watched her grandchildren get their master’s degrees. "So I said, ’Well, I’m not doing anything, I’m tired of my hobbies, so I’m going to go to school,’" Daniels said. She can no longer drive after suffering from two serious illnesses during her seven years studying at the college. Her son said that the challenges didn’t slow her down. Now that she has her associate degree, her family is encouraging her to go for her bachelor’s. Doreetha said she’ll think about it. 1. What do we learn about Doreetha from this news report?

判断题
Reaching the Top: Have You Got What It Takes? A) Many social scientists have studied the causes of success. One American study claims that your social network is the key to success. Apparently, every extra friend that you have at school adds two percent to your salary later in life! Perhaps this gives you more self-confidence (自信心) or perhaps you have more people to support you. Another study links height and success: Every extra centimeter is worth another $300 per year. The trouble is that for every person who fits these theories, there is a special case. B) So is success just down to luck? Napoleon was once thinking about giving a general a more important job in his army. After he had heard about all the general’s talents (才能), he said "Yes, yes, I realize he’s brilliant but is he lucky?" And when you think about it, what use is talent without luck? In 1979, an unknown Australian actor arrived at a film audition (试演) looking black and blue. He had been partying the night before and three drunks had attacked him. The director was looking for a battle-wounded actor to star in his film and immediately offered the actor the part. That actor was Mel Gibson and he went on to become a Hollywood superstar. Talent has kept him famous but it was luck that gave him his first opportunity. C) However, in his book Outliers: The Story of Success, Malcolm Gladwell has come up with a theory that he says is true in every case. He thinks that the secret of success is simply many hours of hard work. He has counted exactly how many hours work you need to do in order to become "the best" in your field: 10,000 hours apparently or about four hours a day for ten years. Without this kind of determination and hard work you probably won’t reach the top, no matter what your talent is. D) Researchers looked at violin players in a music school to test this theory. Teachers put the average players in group C, good players in group B and excellent players in group A. It turned out that all the players in group A had done around 10,000 hours of practice in their lifetime. The good players had done around 6,000 hours and the average players only 4,000 hours. However, all the players had entered the school with similar levels of ability. E) But surely there are special cases? Mozart, for example, is always considered a "born genius (天才)". He performed in public at the age of four and by six, he had written several pieces. Surely his success was down to natural talent, not hard work? In fact, Gladwell argues, Mozart had a very strict father who made him practice for hours each day from an early age. And the music that Mozart wrote when he was six wasn’t great. Mozart produced his first real best work when he was twenty-one. By that time, he’d done at least 10,000 hours of practice and had "become" a genius. F) Researchers’ interest in the secret of success has also motivated some of them to look deep into other possible explanations. Camille Sweeney and Josh Gosfield, authors of the book The Art of Doing: How Superachievers Do What They Do and How They Do It So Well, were inspired by the theory of Chris Argyris, a theorist at Harvard Business School who studied what happens to organizations and people in the face of obstacles in their paths. They interviewed high achievers, expecting to hear that talent, persistence, dedication and luck played important roles in their success. G) Surprisingly, however, they discovered that self-awareness played an equally strong role. The successful people they spoke with -- in business, entertainment, sports and the arts -- all had similar responses when faced with obstacles: they made themselves go through self-examination that led to change of their goals and the methods by which they tried to achieve them. The tennis champion Martina Navratilova, for example, told them that after a big loss to Chris Evert in 1981, she questioned her belief that she could get by on talent alone. She began a long exploration of every aspect of her game. She chose a challenging cross-training practice (common today but unheard of at the time), changed what she ate and her mental and tactical (战术的) game and eventually changed herself into the most successful women’s tennis player of her time. H) Sweeney and Gosfield admitted that no one’s idea of a good time is to take a close look at their values and beliefs, and to recognize that those may be the reasons for their failure. Very often it’s easy to find ways to explain why the world has not properly rewarded your efforts. But what the two researchers learned from their conversations with high achievers is that challenging their beliefs, at times even their goals, may sometimes push them further than they thought possible. I) Success does not come your way easily. So next time you dream of scoring the winning goal in the World Cup or winning an Oscar, ask yourself these questions: Am I really prepared to put in the hours necessary to achieve my goal? Should I quickly blame someone else for my troubles? Can I honestly reexamine my beliefs and goals and act with courage to make changes? _______ 1. A tennis player changed her belief, training and methods of playing to reach the top of her sport. _______ 2. An author believes that a person has to work hard for about four hours a day over the course of ten years before he becomes most successful. _______ 3. Mel Gibson’s success as an actor started with an opportunity to be chosen for a movie after he was beaten badly the night before. _______ 4. A study has found that how tall one is can be linked to his salary. _______ 5. A dream-chaser should ask himself questions about his amount of hard work and his own beliefs and goals. _______ 6. Mozart wrote great music pieces after he put great efforts into practicing. _______ 7. It was a business theorist who inspired Sweeney and Gosfield in their study of high achievers. _______ 8. Of the studies that have examined the causes of success, one shows that the number of friends you have at school has an effect on your future salary. _______ 9. A research study looking at three different groups of music students with similar entry levels found out that the hours of their practice made a huge difference to their skills. _______ 10. Sweeney and Gosfield accepted the fact that examining one’s beliefs and values as possible reasons for his failure is certainly no fun.

If anyone says this to you while you’re wearing your earbuds, please note: You are probably harming your hearing. More than one billion teens and young adults are at risk of losing their hearing, according to the World Health Organization, or WHO. It’s not just old people who suffer hearing loss. Just by listening to music at what you probably think is a normal level, or having fun in loud bars, nightclubs and music and sporting events, your hearing can be lost forever. By analyzing listening habits of 12- to 35-year-olds in developed countries around the world, the WHO found nearly 50% of those studied listen to unsafe sound levels on personal listening devices and about 40% listen to music at damaging levels in entertainment events. It doesn’t take much time to damage your hearing at a sports bar or nightclub. According to the WHO, when the noise level reaches 100 decibels in such events, it is safe for no more than 15 minutes. A decibel is a unit used to measure how loud a sound is. 3. What is the news report mainly about? A、Young people’s habits of entertainment. B、Right ways of measuring sound levels. C、Young and old people’s musical tastes. D、The link between loudness and hearing loss.
