Ⅰ.阅读理解

A PhD student in Michigan defended her paper while wearing a skirt made of rejection letters she received while studying.29-year-old Caitlin Kirby printed out 17 of her rejection letters — from scholarships, academic journals, and conferences — then folded each one into a fan.She connected them in rows, and in the end she made a skirt out of these “fans” and wore it.
She said that the idea behind her unique clothing item came out of a desire to normalize (使正常化) rejection and take pride in overcoming it.“The whole process of rereading those old letters and making that skirt sort of reminded me that you have to apply for a lot of things to succeed,” she said.“A natural part of the process is to get rejected along the way.”
Caitlin’s adviser, Julie Libarkin, a professor of earth and environmental science at Michigan State University, also encourages the acceptance of failure in her students.Libarkin believes it’s important for students to get into a habit of applying for things, and to get used to the feeling of rejection, so she encourages them to chase after any opportunity that comes their way.If a student doesn’t get a grant or a spot in an academic journal, that’s okay.They’ll still have learned something in the process.
As for Caitlin, the rejections she received over the years have led to great things:Since her doctorate, she’s won a scholarship to do further research on urban agriculture in Germany.
Currently, she’s a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.As for what the future holds?“I’m prepared to receive a few more rejection letters along the way,” she joked heartily.“Maybe I’ll make a longer skirt.”

We have often heard that “work smart and not hard”.Does only smart work bring you success?And if so, then why are so many of us still busy putting our blood and sweat into working hard? Here, we’ll discuss hard work and smart work.
Hard work is all about consistently working towards a particular goal irrespective (不考虑的) of its worth, not being worried about the result and not using any means to reduce your effort.Hard work requires a lot of commitment (投入) and sincerity from the person.Although being boring and tiresome, it can give you the best results if it is done with heart and soul.
One of the preconditions of smart work is having in-depth knowledge or experience of the work in hand, because that allows you to look for efficient ways to do the work in a planned time.Being a smart worker saves a lot of time as you can find means to reduce your work by using logical and innovative ways to achieve your goals.Besides, it also gives you enough time to learn a new task while completing the present one.
Although it seems that smart work is a better option, what we forget is that smart work is the fruit of hard work.Only when you work hard can you gather the expertise (专门技能) and the knowledge to understand the work in hand and efficiently improve on it and work smartly.
You will attain great heights and lead a better and comfortable life if you combine both smart and hard work together.If you are not smart, your hard work will never pay.A donkey only does hard work, while a horse does hard work and uses its smartness whenever and wherever it needs.In a similar way, smart work is the result of hard work.To master the quality of smart work, you really need to work hard.Through hard work, we gain experience which helps us discover new things that may make us work smartly.The effort is important,but where to make that effort makes a difference.
5.What can we learn about hard workers from Paragraph 2?
A.They lack proper work skills.
B.They always have great patience.
C.They tend to ignore the goal of work.
D.They can obtain excellent results from their work if they work with heart and soul.
6.How can smart workers save a lot of time?
A.By making a sensible plan.
B.By making use of innovative ways.
C.By learning experience from others.
D.By getting inspiration from a new task.
7.What does the author think of hard work?
A.It is inspiring. B.It is ineffective.
C.It is challenging. D.It is fundamental.
8.What does the example of donkey in Paragraph 5 intend to show?
A.It is useless to work hard.
B.It is necessary to work smartly.
C.The efforts you make matter most.
D.The horse is cleverer than the donkey.

“A positive attitude can be a gift to those around you,” said Jamie Long, a clinical psychologist in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.“But it shouldn’t take the place of listening thoughtfully to others’ experiences.”
“When you choose to look at situations from one positive angle, you are very likely to dismiss a true experience,” Long explained.“Even if you try to cheer up someone, ignoring someone’s difficult experiences can leave them feeling they should hide negative feelings in the future.”
As examples of “positive” responses that might destroy a friend’s ability to share their feelings, Long listed:“Look for the silver lining” and “it could be worse”.Instead of trying to find a positive angle, Long suggested using accepting phrases that communicate a willingness to listen, and to share life’s difficult moments with the people you care about.
Still, the positive benefits of negative emotions may be best experienced in relatively small doses (剂量).Lomas Quintero highlighted that appreciating the value of difficult feelings is all about finding balance.“Any negative emotion can go too far or turn into a clinical issue,” he said.
Long agreed.“There is an abundance of research that really touts (吹捧) the benefits of positivity, and we’re not denying that,” Long said.“When you do so to an extreme, when you dismiss truth, that’s where problems arise.”
9.What does Jamie Long advocate?
A.Taking a positive attitude to those around you.
B.Listening thoughtfully to others’ experiences.
C.Choosing to look at situations from a positive angle.
D.Ignoring someone’s difficult experiences to cheer up.
10.Why does the author mention “Look for the silver lining” in Paragraph 3?
A.To explain a rule.
B.To clarify a concept.
C.To give an example.
D.To make a comparison.
11.What is the author’s attitude to the benefits of negative emotions?
A.Favorable. B.Intolerant.
C.Doubtful. D.Objective.
12.What do the last two paragraphs mainly talk about?
A.The benefits of positive emotions.
B.Clinical issues caused by negativity.
C.Experiencing some difficult feelings.
D.Balancing positivity against negativity.

词-ing形式/动词不定式/宾语从句才是真正的宾语。

④I find that it is my duty to help you when you are in trouble.

trying

it my duty to help you
五、动词-ing形式和动词不定式的使用原则
动词-ing形式和动词不定式在形式上分为一般式和完成式。一般式表
示和谓语动词所表示的动作同时进行的动作;完成式表示在谓语动词
所表示的动作之前发生的动作。一定要根据句子表达的意义选用不同
的形式。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
A PhD student in Michigan defended her paper while wearing a
skirt made of rejection letters she received while studying.29-year-old
Caitlin Kirby printed out 17 of her rejection letters — from
scholarships, academic journals, and conferences — then folded
each one into a fan.She connected them in rows, and in the end she
made a skirt out of these “fans” and wore it.
She said that the idea behind her unique clothing item came out of
a desire to normalize (使正常化) rejection and take pride in
overcoming it.“The whole process of rereading those old letters and
making that skirt sort of reminded me that you have to apply for a lot
of things to succeed,” she said.“A natural part of the process is to get
rejected along the way.”
Caitlin’s adviser, Julie Libarkin, a professor of earth and
environmental science at Michigan State University, also encourages
the acceptance of failure in her students.Libarkin believes it’s
important for students to get into a habit of applying for things, and
to get used to the feeling of rejection, so she encourages them to chase
after any opportunity that comes their way.If a student doesn’t get a
grant or a spot in an academic journal, that’s okay.They’ll still have
learned something in the process.
As for Caitlin, the rejections she received over the years have led
to great things:Since her doctorate, she’s won a scholarship to do
further research on urban agriculture in Germany.
Currently, she’s a post-doctoral researcher at the University of
Nebraska-Lincoln.As for what the future holds?“I’m prepared to
receive a few more rejection letters along the way,” she joked
heartily.“Maybe I’ll make a longer skirt.”
语篇解读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了29岁的Caitlin
Kirby将收到的拒绝信做成了一件裙子,并希望告诉人们,失败是很
正常的,要正确对待并从中汲取智慧。

We have often heard that “work smart and not hard”.Does only
smart work bring you success?And if so, then why are so many of
us still busy putting our blood and sweat into working hard? Here,
we’ll discuss hard work and smart work.
Hard work is all about consistently working towards a particular
goal irrespective (不考虑的) of its worth, not being worried about
the result and not using any means to reduce your effort.Hard work
requires a lot of commitment (投入) and sincerity from the
person.Although being boring and tiresome, it can give you the best
results if it is done with heart and soul.
One of the preconditions of smart work is having in-depth
knowledge or experience of the work in hand, because that allows
you to look for efficient ways to do the work in a planned time.Being a
smart worker saves a lot of time as you can find means to reduce your
work by using logical and innovative ways to achieve your
goals.Besides, it also gives you enough time to learn a new task while
completing the present one.
Although it seems that smart work is a better option, what we
forget is that smart work is the fruit of hard work.Only when you
work hard can you gather the expertise (专门技能) and the
knowledge to understand the work in hand and efficiently improve on
it and work smartly.
You will attain great heights and lead a better and comfortable life
if you combine both smart and hard work together.If you are not
smart, your hard work will never pay.A donkey only does hard
work, while a horse does hard work and uses its smartness whenever
and wherever it needs.In a similar way, smart work is the result of
hard work.To master the quality of smart work, you really need to
work hard.Through hard work, we gain experience which helps us
discover new things that may make us work smartly.The effort is
important,but where to make that effort makes a difference.

“A positive attitude can be a gift to those around you,” said
Jamie Long, a clinical psychologist in Fort Lauderdale,
Florida.“But it shouldn’t take the place of listening thoughtfully to
others’ experiences.”
“When you choose to look at situations from one positive angle,
you are very likely to dismiss a true experience,” Long
explained.“Even if you try to cheer up someone, ignoring someone’s
difficult experiences can leave them feeling they should hide negative
feelings in the future.”
As examples of “positive” responses that might destroy a friend’s
ability to share their feelings, Long listed:“Look for the silver
lining” and “it could be worse”.Instead of trying to find a positive
angle, Long suggested using accepting phrases that communicate a
willingness to listen, and to share life’s difficult moments with the
people you care about.
Still, the positive benefits of negative emotions may be best
experienced in relatively small doses (剂量).Lomas Quintero
highlighted that appreciating the value of difficult feelings is all about
finding balance.“Any negative emotion can go too far or turn into a
clinical issue,” he said.
Long agreed.“There is an abundance of research that really touts
(吹捧) the benefits of positivity, and we’re not denying that,”
Long said.“When you do so to an extreme, when you dismiss truth,
that’s where problems arise.”
