1、完形填空強(qiáng)化練習(xí)Passage 1 If you were to begin a new job tomorrow, you would bring with you some basic strengths and weaknesses. Success or _1_ in your work would depend, to a great extent, _2_ your ability to use your strengths and weaknesses to the best advantage. _3_ the utmost importance is your attitud
2、e. A person who begins a job convinced that he isn't going to like it or is certain that he is going to ail is exhibiting a weakness which can only hinder his success. On the other hand, a person who is secure _4_ his belief that he is probably as capable of doing the work as anyone else and who
3、 is willing to make a cheerful attempt _5_ it possesses a certain strength of purpose. The chances are that he will do well. Having the prerequisite skills for a particular job is strength. Lacking those skills is obviously a weakness. A book keeper who cant add or a carpenter who cant cut a straigh
4、t line with a saw _6_ hopeless cases. This book has been designed to help you capitalize _7_ the strength and overcome the weakness that you bring to the job of learning. But in order to measure your development, you must first take stock of where you stand now. _8_ we get further along in the book,
5、 well be dealing in some detail with specific processes for developing and strengthening _9_ skills. However, to begin with, you should pause to examine your present strengths and weaknesses in three areas that are critical to your success or failure in school: your _10_ , your reading and communica

8、nes: a never-ending flood of words. In _1_ a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend quickly can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are _2_ readers. Most of us develop poor reading habits at an early age, and never get ove
9、r them. The main deficiency _3_ in the actual stuff of language itself - words. Taken individually, words have little meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. _4_ , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a t
10、ime, often regressing to reread words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over _5_ you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which slows down the speed of reading is vocalizationsounding each word either orally or mentally as one reads. To overcome these bad
11、habits, some reading clinics use a device called an _6_ , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate _7_ the reader finds comfortable, in order to “stretch” him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, making word-by-word r
12、eading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first _8_ is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, but your comprehension will improve. Many people have found _9_ reading skill drastically improved after some training.
13、Take Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute before the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute.

These shops included drugstores, restaurants, shoe repai
17、r stores, and barber or hairdressing shops. _4_ in the 1950s, a change began to take place.

18、ty limits. Open space is what their car-driving customers needed. And open space is what they got _6_ the first shopping centre was built. Shopping centres, or rather malls, started as a collection of small new stores _7_ crowded city centres. Attracted by hundreds of free parking space, customers w

But it began to be heard in the early 1900s. Jazz is Americas contribution to _3_ music. In contrast to classical
23、music, which follows formal European traditions, jazz is spontaneous and free form. It bubbles with energy, _4_ the moods, interests, and emotions of the people. In the 1920s jazz sounded like America, and _5_ it does today. The origins of this music are as interesting as the music _6_ . American Ne
24、groes, or blacks, as they are called today, were the jazz pioneers. They were brought to Southern States as slaves. They were sold to plantation owners and forced to work long _7_ .

34、 carefully to the urgent instructions that were being sent by radio from the airport _6_ . The plane was now dangerously close to the ground, but to everyones relief, it soon began to climb. The man had to _7_ the airport several times in order to become _8_ with the controls of the plane. But the d

42、constituent _1_ must exist in the form of tiny particles or atoms and that these must be completely mixed together in the _2_. This threw a new light in the laws of definite proportions. It was _3_ necessary to suppose that the atoms could combines into small groups of uniform _5_ and so form more c
43、omplex substance; thus the mystery of this law was _5_ . Dalton suggested, for example, that carbon monoxide _6_ formed by the one with one pairing of atoms of carbon and oxygen, _7_ carbon dioxide results from a single atom of carbon uniting with two atoms _8_ oxygen. Assuming this to be true, then

47、 (君主政體) survives without serious question.
