Are you equal to the challenge? You might be sitting in front of your computer watching a documentary about America, which shows you the breathtaking views of skyscrapers in New York, the beautiful warm weather in San Diego, and the huge parties along the beaches of the Sunshine State, Florida.‎ Just as you know, it’s all true.I remember how my heart was racing the first time I visited Times Square in New York.I can’t find any words in the dictionary to describe how I felt at that moment.Someday, when you get lucky and go there, you will know what I mean.‎ Unfortunately, TV and movies never show the other side of what students must do to survive America.Education in the States is really different from other places.Yes, there is the traditional A, B, C, and D grading system, and you get to be on the Dean’s List if you have all A’s on your transcript.However, these grades don’t just come from your test performances.The requirements of classes in the US are much more varied and this is the biggest adjustment that overseas students have to manage.‎ Some have papers that you have to write every week; others have group projects you must do with your classmates, presentations you make in the class, or research you do by yourself to prove your own idea.There comes a night when you have a couple of projects for different classes, a paper, and an exam to study for.And that night you ask yourself, “What did I get myself into？”‎ I’m not trying to intimidate you, but you should know what it really is like to study in the States.One thing I can promise you is that it is worth all the hard work you put in.And the more time you give to your study, the more open doors you will have by the time you finish your degree.‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。介绍了在美国学习的特点：美国是来自不同文化背景的人友好相处的地方，对于海外留学生来说，在美国学习时，平衡不同的学习是很有挑战性的。‎ ‎1．The author wrote this passage to ________.‎ A．help readers prepare for studying in the US B．warn people of the dangers of living in the US C．promote the US education system to overseas students D．make readers understand the benefits of studying in the US 解析：选A　写作意图题。根据第二段中的“There is an undeniable excitement about coming to study in the US”以及最后一段第一句中的“you should know what it really is like to study in the States”可知，作者写本文的目的在于帮助想要去美国学习的读者做好准备。故A项正确。‎ ‎2．According to the author, America is ________.‎ A．a place that he could not get used to B．a country where students can learn freely C．a dangerous place to live in without family or friends D．a place where people from different backgrounds get on well 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第三段第一句中的“it’s the place where different cultures clash ...and live together in peace”可知，作者认为美国是来自不同文化背景的人友好和平相处的地方。故D项正确。‎ ‎3．According to the passage, which of the following is most challenging?‎ A．Attending all the classes.‎ B．Getting all A’s in the tests.‎ C．Writing papers every week.‎ D．Balancing different study requirements.‎ 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据倒数第三段的最后一句“The requirements of classes in the US are much more varied and this is the biggest adjustment that overseas students have to manage.”‎ 可知，对于海外留学生来说，平衡不同的学习是最有挑战性的。故D项正确。‎ ‎4．The underlined word “intimidate” in the last paragraph most probably means “________”．‎ A．encourage B．frighten C．confuse D．persuade 解析：选B　词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段最后一句中的“What did I get myself into？”以及最后一段第二句中的“all the hard work”可知，画线词所在句表示我不是在恐吓你，但是你应当知道，在美国学习真正是什么样子？B项意为“恐吓”，符合语境，故B项正确。A项意为“鼓励”，C项意为“使混淆”，D项意为“说服”，都与语境不符。‎ B ‎(2014·黄冈4月适应性测试)Last week, my granddaughter started kindergarten, and I wished her every success. But part of me didn’t. I actually wanted her to fail in some ways because I believe that failure can be good for our learning process. Success is proving that you can do something that you already know you can do, or doing something correctly the first time, which can often be a problematic victory. Firsttime success is often a fluke (侥幸). Firsttime failure, by contrast, is expected to be the natural order of things. Failure is how we learn.‎ In Africa they describe a good cook as “She who has broken many pots”. If you’ve spent enough time in the kitchen to break a lot of pots, you probably know a lot about cooking. I once had dinner with a group of cooks, and they spent time comparing knife wounds and burn scars. They knew how much credibility their failures gave them.‎ I earn my living by writing a daily newspaper column. Each week I am aware that one column I write will be my worst. I don’t set out to write it. I try my best every day. I have teamed to cherish that column. A good column usually means that I am discussing my familiar topic, writing in a style I am used to or saying the same ‎ things as anyone else but in a fancy way.‎ My younger daughter is a trapeze artist. She spent three years pulling together a show, and she did it successfully for years. There was no reason for her to change it, but she did anyway. She said she was no longer learning anything new and she was bored. And if she was bored, there was no point in subjecting her body to all that stress. She risked failure and public embarrassment in order to feed her soul.‎ My granddaughter is a perfectionist. She will feel her failures, and I will want to comfort her. But I will also, I hope, remind her of what she learned, and how she can do better next time. I hope I can tell her, though, that it’s not the end of the world. Indeed, with luck, it is just the beginning. ‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章通过举例来说明：失败是学习的过程，这是事物的自然法则。失败并不是一件倒霉的事情，而恰恰相反，它是一件非常幸运的事情，因为这才是成功的开端。‎ ‎5．Why did the author want his granddaughter to fail?‎ A．Success is boring though beneficial.‎ B．She would learn more from failure.‎ C．It’s impossible to do everything successfully.‎ D．He wanted her to be strong enough to face hardships.‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据第一段第三句中的“... because I believe that failure can be good for our learning process.”以及最后一句“Failure is how we learn.”可知，失败是学习的过程，作者认为孙女能从失败中学到更多。故B项正确。‎ ‎6．What’s the author’s attitude towards his daughter changing her show?‎ A．Negative. B．Worried.‎ C．Positive. D．Excited.‎ 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句“She risked failure and ‎ public embarrassment in order to feed her soul.”可知，为了满足自己的灵魂，她承受着失败的风险和不被观众接受的尴尬处境。由此结合全文可知，作者对于失败持乐观态度。所以可以看出作者对女儿的选择持积极态度。故C项正确。‎ ‎7．The author develops the article mainly by ________.‎ A．giving examples B．following the time order C．comparing different opinions D．presenting a cause and analyzing its effects 解析：选A　推理判断题。作者以自己和孙女、女儿的经历为例，说明失败是件有益的事情。故A项正确。‎ ‎8．The writer talked about his own experience to show that ________.‎ A．we cannot depend on luck to live a good life B．we should try every possible way to avoid failure C．past failures made him dare not take risks in writing D．the thought of failure will make you work even harder 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第三段可知，作者学会珍惜最差的专栏，学会如何采用一些有效的写作技巧，而不是循规蹈矩。故D项正确。‎ 生态环保类
