Answer 1

. 18. D A、B兩項(xiàng)不符合本文主旨。useless常用來(lái)修飾物。故選D。

19. B make full use of/make the best of/make the most of充分利用。

20. B和前面的older搭配用age。

21. C認(rèn)為自己在某方面缺乏天賦的人往往不會(huì)在這一方面真正投人精力，因?yàn)樗�認(rèn)為做了等于白做還不如不去努力。從下文的事例也可推知答案。

22. D  自信是成功的必備因素。necessary for success作定語(yǔ)修飾confidence。

23. D不認(rèn)真工作而且缺乏信心，失敗也是理所當(dāng)然，故選therefore,

24. B多次失敗往往會(huì)使人形成一種錯(cuò)誤的認(rèn)識(shí)，更加認(rèn)為自己在某方面真的無(wú)能。在此之前他已經(jīng)形成此觀點(diǎn)，故排除A。

25.A作者以Alfred Adler為例就是因?yàn)锳lfred Adler曾經(jīng)有過(guò)和本文所講的同樣的經(jīng)歷。

26. C從a small boy可知是回憶數(shù)學(xué)啟蒙時(shí)候的事情。

27. B   和后文as they expected相呼應(yīng)。老師認(rèn)為他在數(shù)學(xué)上無(wú)天賦，體現(xiàn)出老師對(duì)他在數(shù)學(xué)方面的期望值不髙，故告訴家長(zhǎng)不要指望其兒子在數(shù)學(xué)方面有什么成就。

28.A 在聽了老師的看法之后，家長(zhǎng)也就自然對(duì)兒子形成了一種新的認(rèn)識(shí)。organize/found 一般是建立某機(jī)構(gòu)，discover不符合文意，故選A。

29. D  their指老師和家長(zhǎng)的。

30.C既然老師和父母都認(rèn)為自己不行，Alfred Adler認(rèn)為自己肯定不行，再努力也沒(méi)用。try努力。

31. C 因?yàn)闆](méi)有用功所以學(xué)得很差，這種結(jié)果剛好和老師和家長(zhǎng)的看法一致。

32. A

33.B  succeed in doing sth成功地做了某事。

34. B 此句表示他目前的狀況，可將句子補(bǔ)全：He now worked at maths with inter?est, determination, and purpose...

35. D他用自己的經(jīng)歷證明了他可以學(xué)好數(shù)學(xué)。

36. B從自己的經(jīng)歷中他悟出了一個(gè)道理。用deeply才能表達(dá)出道理的深刻和悟出道理這個(gè)漫長(zhǎng)的過(guò)程。

37. C Alfred Adler從一個(gè)數(shù)學(xué)白癡到數(shù)學(xué)天才當(dāng)然會(huì)讓人吃驚（astonish^
