26、   To be rulers of the reality, we must know how to ask for suggestions. But one thing that must be kept in mind is that when we ask others for suggestions we must be open to suggestions.

I wrote a business letter one day. I gave it to my husband for suggestions. After reading the letter, he felt that there were some problems in my letter. I told him I needed more information, but he said he wasn’t sure. Then he reread the letter and made notes. I took the letter and revised it. As I was writing, I could see my letter improved based on his suggestions. Again, I handed the letter back to my husband proudly and confidently. But he said it was still not right. I was a little annoyed and said some bad words to him.

Many people may have the same reaction when they experience the same situation. It’s normal that people don’t like objection or critical words. However, we should hold a right attitude towards these words: Analyze the objection and listen to critical words with an open mind.

I then picked up the letter. After an hour of revision, I went back to my husband contritely. I told him I was sorry for what I had said. And after he read the letter again, he declared that it was fine.

That leads me to the following: When you ask for advice on a project, be grateful. Understand that the suggestions you get may be negative. Understand that it may mean more work for you. And keep in mind that the final responsibility for the project is still yours. So be modest and thankful even if he or she has noted some problems.

【1】Why did the author give her business letter to her husband?

A.To show off her excellent work.

B.To ask him to make some changes.

C.To have him type it on the computer.

D.To ask him to give her some advice.

【2】What kind of people is the author’s husband?

A.A person who is good at expressing himself.

B.A person of selfishness and pride.

C.A person of honesty and patience.

D.A person of humor, but carelessness.

【3】What does the word “contritely” in Paragraph 4 mean?

A.pleasantly

B.regretfully

C.proudly

D.carefully

【4】What attitude should we take when we are given suggestions?

A.Don’t get upset if some are negative.

B.Don’t refuse any help from the giver.

C.Do keep silent before taking action.

D.Don’t quarrel but talk with the giver.

27、   Chinese scientists recently have produced two monkeys with the same gene, Zhong Zhong and Hua Hua, using the same technique that gave us Dolly the sheep. These monkeys are not actually the first primates(灵长类)to be cloned. Another one named Tetra was produced in the late 1990s by embryo(胚胎)splitting, the division of an early-stage embryo into two or four separate cells to make clones. By contrast, they were each made by replacing an egg cell nucleus(卵原子核)with DNA from a differentiated body cell. This Dolly method, known as somatic(躯体的) cell nuclear transfer(SCNT), can create more clones and allows researchers greater control over the edits they make to the DNA.

Success came from adopting several new techniques. These included a new type of microscopy(显微术) to better view the cells during handling or using several materials that encourage cell reprogramming, which hadn’t been tried before on primates. Still, the research process proved difficult, and many attempts by the team failed. Just two healthy baby monkeys born from more than 60 tested mothers. This leads to many researchers’ pouring water on the idea that the team’s results bring scientists closer to cloning humans. They thought this work is not a stepping stone to establishing methods for obtaining live born human clones. Instead, this clearly remains a very foolish thing to attempt, and it would be far too inefficient, far too unsafe, and it is also pointless.

But the scientists involved emphasize that this is not their goal. There is now no barrier for cloning primate species, thus cloning humans is closer to reality. However, their research purpose is entirely for producing non-human primate models for human diseases; they absolutely have no intention, and society will not permit this work to be extended to humans. Despite limitations, they treat this breakthrough as a novel model system for scientists studying human biology and disease.

【1】What do we know about the technology called SCNT?

A. It created the first primates.

B. It may contribute to editing the DNA.

C. It can divide an early-stage embryo into several cells.

D. It produced two cloned monkeys with different genes.

【2】What does the author mean by “pouring water on the idea” in paragraph 2?

A. Keeping a hot topic of it. B. Paying no attention to it.

C. Having a low opinion of it. D. Adding supportive evidence to it.

【3】What is the scientists’ purpose to clone these monkeys?

A. To prepare for their research on human cloning.

B. To serve as a stepping stone to their reputation.

C. To help with the study of human diseases.

D. To clone other animals for scientific use.

【4】What can we infer from the passage?

A. Cloning humans is already on its way.

B. New techniques seem to be pointless.

C. Society won’t agree to clone another monkey.

D. The success rate of this cloning of monkey was not high.

28、The Winner ' Guide to Success

How do successful people think? What helps them to make success? To find out the answers, an American scholar recently visited some of the most successful people in America. 【1】

Be responsible for yourself

Sometimes you may want to blame （责备） others for your failure to get ahead. 【2】 You're saying, “You have more control over my life than I do.”

Live life “on purpose”

Almost all successful people live life “on purpose”—they are doing what they believe they should and want to do. When you live your life on purpose, you'll try your best to do your job or study as well as you can. You love what you do and you can find pleasure in what you do.

Write a plan

It is very difficult trying to get what you want without a good plan. 【3】 A good plan is like a map to you. Without this “map” you may waste your time, money and also your energy; while with the “ map” you'll enjoy the “trip” and get what you want in the shortest possible time.

Be willing to pay the price

Nothing great is easy to get. So you must be ready to work hard—even harder than you have ever done. If you are not willing to pay the price, you won't get anything valuable.

Never give up

【4】 When you are doing something, you must tell yourself again and again: Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success, but giving up means the death of hope.

【5】

Once an American writer was writing a novel. He could not have a good ending for his book until one night when he had a very good idea. He was so excited that he made a phone call to one of his best friends. “I've be got a perfect idea,” he said,” I'll put it down later and show it to you.” But he never did, because he died that night. His book was left without a perfect ending. So remember, do what you can right away. Never delay at all.

A．It is just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away.

B．It seems to us that everyone knows this. But it is easier said than done.

C．Some people achieve success much later in life because they fail to realize earlier the importance of hard work.

D．In fact, when you say someone or something outside of yourself stopping you from making success, you are giving away your own power.

E．Sometimes delay

F．Don't delay （拖延）

G．Here are some keys to success that they give.
