A
Nowadays, it seems that everybody wants to be a leader. Countless books about how to manage a company or influence others fill bookstores. But one needn't be a CEO or Politician to be a leader. Former U. S. President John Adams said, “If your action inspires others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.”
The key to becoming such a leader lies in character. People follow only those whom they respect, trust and admire. What attractive traits does such a leader have? Below are five of the most important.
Leaders have courage
The New York firefighters who ran into the burning World Trade Tower to rescue others are modernday models of courage. Yet even more than physical courage, the everyday demands of modern life require moral courage. Insisting on doing the right thing despite pressure to act otherwise takes such courage.
Leaders must face fear and doubt in many of the decisions they make. Having these feelings doesn't mean one isn't courageous. After all, courage is not the absence of fear. Rather, it's doing the right thing despite one's fears.
Leaders are humble
Being humble simply means having an accurate view of one's own limitations. Everybody has limitations. Leaders deal with theirs by seeking help from others.
When leaders seek help, they recognize the skills that order other people bring to the table. And when they are successful, leaders generously praise all who contributed to the success. Humble leaders don't promote themselves; they promote others.
Learning is a lifelong goal, no matter one's position. Humble leaders are never too proud to
learn from all sources of knowledge—even those under them.
Leaders serve others
Just Christ said,“If anyone wants to be first, he must be the very last, and the servant of all.” Leaders serve others and put the needs of others before themselves. They make the good of everyone on the team a personal priority.
Leaders who serve others help the whole team accomplish more. Leaders do things to make sure everybody has the resources needed. They go the extra mile to help out during a busy rush. When leaders serve, followers are also encouraged to serve each other.
Leaders have passion
Money or success can motivate someone to show up for an activity. But what motivates one to really put his heart into something? The answer is passion—the feeling that the activity is significant.
Outstanding leaders inspire others because they are motivated by passion for what they do. Leaders show the significance of routine work to others by emphasizing the big picture. They demonstrate how an activity not only benefits the individual, but also one's family, community and entire society. Their passion ignites the passion of others.
Leaders have integrity
One's integrity can be measured by what one does when nobody is looking. Leaders practice what they preach all the time, not just in the presence of others. Leaders also set the example for integrity. If a leader values being punctual, he arrives early.
Leadership is more about who you are than what you know or can do. By following these principles, you can become a better person. And that in turn will make you a better leader.
文章大意:本文是一篇說明文。本文主要介紹了領導者的特征和品質,要做一名領導者不一定要做CEO或政客,如果你的行為能激勵他人,讓他人學到更多,做得更多,成就更多,你就是一名領導者。

3.This action “If a leader wants everyone to work hard, he works harder.” belongs to ________.

C.Leaders have passion
D.Leaders have integrity
答案:D 推理判斷題。根據倒數第二段第三句“Leaders also set the example for integrity.”可知,領導者往往起到榜樣的作用,由此可推出,“領導者想要他人努力工作,他也努力工作”能體現出Leaders have integrity這個品質。故D項正確。
4.What could be the best title for the text?

答案:A 標題概括題。根據第二段最后兩句“What attractive traits does such a leader have? Below are five of the most important.”以及最后一段第一句“Leadership is more about who you are than what you know or can do.”可知,本文主要講述了領導者的品質。故A項正確。

(2024·日照市校際檢測)“Friendly doctors are bad for their patients' health,” researchers have warned as a new study revealed two thirds of young doctors struggle to be truthful with patients they like.
Blurring (使……變得模糊不清) the lines between social and professional relationships can affect the level of care offered and prevent patients from being honest about important side effects.
“Doctors should avoid adding patients as friends on Facebook, and they should not hug or allow patients to call them by their first names,” regulators have warned. “Those who break the boundaries will face some punishment.”
It comes as a survey of 338 oncologists (腫瘤學家) under the age of 40, finding 59 per cent said they found it difficult to tell the truth to those patients they like. Sixty per cent of respondents said if doctors felt too close to their patients, it could prevent them from making objective decisions about a person's care.
Lesley Fallowfield of Brighton and Sussex Medical School said:“Oncology is a profession that can be enormously rewarding but is filled with many challenges. Young oncologists have to master the means of dealing with anxious patients who are facing a life-threatening disease, conveying the true prognosis (預斷), discussing the complexity of modern treatments, and explaining the unavailability of some drugs, the side effects of treatments, and likely treatment aims.”
But she also said, “Those doctors who have entered the profession in the age of ‘the Internet world’ are more likely to fall victim to blurring the professional boundaries with patients.”
She said,“The difficulty, if you hug and kiss patients, if you allow them to call you by your first name, is that quickly the relationship can become confusing as a social one rather than a professional one. Doctors become confused, ‘I really like these people, how
can I bear to tell them that they're going to die?’ They find it more difficult to be objective.”
1.Why are friendly doctors bad for their patients' health?
A.Because they don't like to cheat patients.
B.Because they are not good at treating patients.
C.Because they find it not easy to be objective to the patients.
D.Because they seldom blur the relationship with patients.
2.What should doctors do according to the regulators?
A.Add patients as friends on Facebook.
B.Have a close connection with patients in life.
C.Always be cold to patients.
D.Keep patients at a proper distance.
3.Young oncologists will face the following challenges EXCEPT ________.
A.dealing with a lot of life-threatening diseases
B.discussing difficulties of treatments with patients
C.explaining the unavailability of some medicines
D.informing patients of the possible results of the treatments。
4.Which opinion will Lesley Fallowfield agree with?
A.Oncology is a rewarding profession without challenges.
B.The Internet makes it easier for young doctors to break the boundaries.
C.It's not the doctors' duty to deal with patients' anxiety.
D.Becoming friends with patients will help them recover soon.
1.解析:選C 細節理解題。根據文章第一段中的“two thirds of young doctors struggle to be truthful with patients they like”及最后一段中的“They find it more difficult to be objective.”可知,三分之二的年輕醫生很難對他們喜歡的病人講實話,他們很難客觀地對待病人,這樣對患者的治療不利,故選C項。
.解析:選D 細節理解題。根據文章的第三段可知,醫生應該避免在臉譜網上添加患者為朋友,他們也不應該擁抱病人或讓病人直呼他們的名字,即醫生應該和病人保持適當的距離,故選D項。
.解析:選A 細節理解題。根據倒數第三段中的“Young oncologists have to master ... and likely treatment aims.”可知,B、C、D三項表述正確;年輕的腫瘤學家需要掌握如何對待面臨生命威脅的焦慮病人,A項“處理很多威脅生命的疾病”表述錯誤。故選A項。
.解析:選B 推理判斷題。根據倒數第二段中的“Those doctors who have entered ... boundaries with patients.”可推知,網絡使得醫生更容易模糊與病人之間的職業分界線,故選B項。C
Samuel Osmond is a 19-year-old law student from Cornwall,England.He never studied the piano.However,he can play very difficult musical pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them.He learns a piece of music by listening to it in parts.Then he thinks about the notes in his head.Two years ago,he played his first piece Moonlight Sonata (奏鳴曲)by Beethoven.He surprised everyone around him.

Samuel can't understand why everyone is so surprised.“I grew up with music.My mother played the piano and my father played the guitar.About two years ago,I suddenly decided to start playing the piano,without being able to read music and without having any lessons.It comes easily to me—I hear the notes and can bear them in mind—each and every note,”says Samuel.
Recently,Samuel performed a piece during a special event at his college.The piece had more than a thousand notes.The audience was impressed by his amazing performance.He is now learning a piece that is so difficult that many professional pianists can't play it.Samuel says confidently,“It's all about super memory—I guess I have that gift.”
However,Samuel's ability to remember things doesn't stop with music.His family says that even when he was a young boy,Samuel heard someone read a story,and then he could retell the story word for word.

答案:
【語篇解讀】 本篇為寫人的記敘文。19歲的法律系學生Samuel Osmond是一個音樂天才。以前他從沒有學過音樂,但是他可以彈鋼琴,并且經常彈奏名家名曲,人們對此很吃驚。是什么造就了這一傳奇?趕快來閱讀一下吧。
.D 解析:細節理解題。由第一段中However,he can play very difficult musical pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them.可以知道,他的特別之處在于他聽了曲子之后就能演奏出來,故選D項。文章沒有說他有創作音樂的天賦,也沒有說他能寫下他聽到的音符(只是說“記住”),更沒有提到他是法學院的優等生,因此可以排除其他選項。
2.B 解析:細節理解題。由Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents...可以知道,他想成為一名律師(也是他父母的愿望),而不是一名音樂家,故選B項,可排除A項;由...but music teachers told him he should study music instead.可以知道,音樂老師想讓他放棄法律專業,學習音樂,因此排除D項;由...but Samuel doesn't even realize that what he can do is special.可以知道,他并不認為自己是音樂天才,因此排除C項。
.C 解析:細節理解題。由第三段中...without being able to read music and without having any lessons.可以知道,他看不懂樂譜,沒有上過音樂課,卻能夠彈鋼琴,這讓人們很驚訝。
.B 解析:推理判斷題。由第四段中Samuel says confidently,“It's all about super memory-I guess I have that gift.”可以知道,他對自己非凡的記憶力感到驕傲,故選B項。文章說到人們對他的記憶力留下深刻印象,但是不能說他一舉成名,因此排除A項。
.B 解析:主旨大意題。全文講述了一個只靠記憶就能演奏非常復雜的名曲的音樂天才。C項有一定的干擾性,Samuel早年受過音樂的熏陶,但是文章的重點不是講述早期教育的重要性,因此可以排除。
