He graduated from Harvard University, which sends few players to the NBA, and he is the only Chinese-American NBA player. Lins enjoyment of basketball actually began in Taiwan. When Lins father moved to U.S., his interest in the sport only grew and he passed on this love of basketball to his son, introducing him to the game at the age of five. The young Lin spent much of his youth playing basketball for fun.In high school, Lin dreamed of playing in the NBA. When he applied for college, he was not offered a single sports scholarship. However, after his admission to Harvard, he was offered a place on its college basketball team.During Lins time at Harvard, his basketball career began to speed up. He scored 1,482 points, making him one of the highest scorers in Ivy League history. When he graduated, no professional teams offered Lin a contract, but he was invited to play in the NBA Summer League. He played well and ended up eagerly signing a contract with the Golden State Warriors. At first，playing in professional games filled Lin with excitement. He treasured opportunities to meet players he had been watching on TV for years. But slowly, the excitement wore off and was replaced by anxiety. In a few very difficult months, he was cut by two teams before the New York Knicks picked him up. But he had the courage and determination to stick to his dream, so he put himself into hard training to get ready for his opportunity to come. Then his moment arrived on February 4, 2012，on which his excellent performance made him famous overnight. After that, he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory. Knicks fans developed the nickname for him Linsanity (林发疯）. Time magazine released its 2012 list of the 100 Most Influential People in the World, Jeremy Lin included.21WhichofthefollowingisoflittlehelpinLinssuccess?A.hisfathersinfluence B.hisdevotiontobasketballC.hisyearsofhardwork D.hisgraduationfromHarvardUniversity22Whatdoesthephrasesworeoffinseventhparagraphprobablymean?A.arose B.disappeared C.grew D.remained23WhichofthefollowingstatementsisTRUEaccordingtothepassage?

A.LindidnthaveasmoothroadinNBA. B.LingotaneasyentryintoNBA.C.LindidntshowhisbasketballtalentsinHarvardUniversity. D.NBAprefersgraduatesfromHarvardUniversity.BA driver stopped his car on a street side to have a rest. As he lay down in the seat and closed his eyes, a person came up and knocked at the window to ask the time. The driver opened his eyes and looked at his watch. “Its 8:05,” he said. Then he went to sleep again. But soon he was waken up again because a second person was knocking at the window. “Sir, do you know the time?” he asked. The driver looked at his watch, and told him it was half past eight.In this way, the driver thought he could not have a good rest, so he wrote a short note and stuck(粘贴) it on the window for all to see. It said, “I dont know the time.”Again, he lay down in the seat for his sleep. A few minutes later, a third person came and began to knock at the window, “Hey, sir,” he said. “Its 8:45.”25How long had the driver been there when the third person called him?A. 40 minutes. B. 25 minutes.C. 50 minutes. D. 70 minutes.26Why did the driver write a note and stick it on the window?A. Because he didnt know the time.B. Because he didnt want anybody to trouble him.C. Because he needed somebody to wake him up.D. Because he wanted somebody to tell him the time.27The third person knocked at the window to _.A. ask him the timeB. ask him not to sleepC. see if the driver was sleepingD. tell him what time it was28What do you think of the third person?A. Cold-hearted. B. Helpful.C. Thankful. D. Hopeful.CDo you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive (欺骗) ? When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can give you a false picture.For example , some might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery (彩票) . It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars! ”This guy is a winner , right? Maybe , maybe not. We then discover that he bought $200 worth of tickets, and only one was a winner. Hes really a big loser!He didnt say anything that was false, but he left out important information on purpose. Thats called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.Some politicians often use this trick. Lets say that during Governor Smiths last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she seeks another term. One of her opponents says, “ During Governor Smiths term, the state lost one million jobs !” Thats true. However, an honest statement would have been , “During Governor Smiths term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs. ”Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. Its against the law to make false statements, so they try to mislead you with the truth. An advertisement might say, “Nine out of ten doctors advised their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache.” It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company.This kind of deception happens too often. Its a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.29We may infer that the author believes people should _.A. buy lottery tickets if possibleB. make use of half-truthsC. be careful about what they are toldD. not trust the Yucky Company30How many examples does the writer give to show how the truth is used to deceive?A. one B. Two C. Three D. Four31Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Using half truths is against the law.B. Technically, half truths are in fact lies.C. Yucky Pills is a very good medicine for toothache.D. Governor Smith did a good job during her last term.DA scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of some four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation early were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexibleActually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesnt show up on an IQ test.The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists concerns. But brain theory cant explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul.Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence: when it comes to predicting peoples success, brain ability measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as “character”EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together; how ones ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. Among the ingredients for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously, some few fear EQ causes misuse.32. The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that _.A. the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experimentB. emotional intelligence wont show up until adolescenceC. the ability of self-control plays a role in personal successD. candy can be used to measure a persons emotional intelligence33. The underlined word “upbeat” in Paragraph 4 probably means “_”.A. kind B. floating C. excited D. optimistic34. Why does the author mention the experiment at the beginning of the text?A. To amuse both the children and readers. B. To prove the scientists wisdom.C. To introduce the topic of the text. D. To show us how to do an IQ test.35. What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?A. Information about famous people with high EQ.B. Examples showing the opposite voice about EQ.C. Some reasons why EQ is relatively new field.D. Strong demands for basic emotional education. 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。Here are some tips that will help you get rid of anxiety over being phoneless or reduce your risk of phone addiction.Disable the Internet connection.
