阅读理解。阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中,选出最佳选项。
Nothing succeeds like confidence. When you are truly confident, it radiates from you like sunlight, and attracts success to you like a magnet(磁铁). Besides, those who are self-confident can in turn inspire confidence in others: their audience, their peers, their bosses, their customers, and their friends. And gaining the confidence of others is one of the key ways in which a self-confident person finds success.
So how can we build a sense of self-confidence and prepare ourselves on the way to success?
First, do what you believe to be right, even if others mock or criticize you for it. Believe in yourself and believe that you can do it under any circumstances, because if you believe you can, then you really will. The belief keeps you searching for answers, which means that pretty soon you will get them.
Second, govern your behavior based on what other people think. What’s more important, be willing to take risks and go the extra miles to achieve better results, in which case mistakes cannot be avoided. Don’t hesitate to admit your mistakes, and learn from them. Next, work hard to settle the problems in order to cover up your mistakes before anyone notices. Building self-confidence is readily achievable, as long as you have the focus and determination to carry things through. And what’s even better is that the things you’ll do to build self-confidence will also build success ----after all, your confidence will come from real, solid achievement. No one can take this away from you!
As you sow, sow will reap. With your perseverance and improvement, you are getting closer to success. At this stage, wait for others to congratulate you on your accomplishments and compliments graciously. “Thanks, I really worked hard on that prospect. I’m pleased you recognize my efforts.” The congratulations and compliments from others will promote you to gain further success.
Self-confidence is extremely important in almost every aspect of our lives, and it is no wonder that so many people struggle to find it. Self-confidence really can be learned and built on. Besides, whether you’re working on your own self-confidence or building the confidence of people around you, it’s well worth the effort!
16. Those who are truly confident _________.
A. succeed without effort and hard work
B. encourage people around to become confident
C. appear more attractive and thus become successful
D. gain the confidence of others and feel successful
17. The underlined word “mock” (Para.3 ) is closest in meaning to ________.
A. praise B. imitate C. punish D. laugh at
18. When others congratulate us on our achievements, we are supposed to ________.
A. praise them in return B. gain further improvement
C. politely accept the compliments D. expect them to congratulate you again
19. Which of the following proverbs best goes with Paragraph 4?
A. Look before your leap.
B. It is no use crying over spilt milk.
C. Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.
D. Learn from past mistakes and avoid future ones.
20. The purpose of the text is to ________________.
A. tell people how to become successful
B. convince people to do what they believe to be right
C. encourage people to build confidence and achieve success
D. criticize people who lack confidence and thus fail in their career
【参考答案】16—20、BDCDC
阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
“So what is Quintura?” you may ask. “I like the search engine I currently use, My Favorite Search Engine. Why do I need anything else? My Favorite Search Engine knows everything about every subject I am interested in and I can access all of the information available on the Web with My Favorite Search Engine.”
“Oh, yes!” we answer. “Indeed! We have no doubt that you have chosen the best search engine for your own search purposes! We don’t want you to part with your favorite ─ Yahoo, MSN or Google.”
However, what if you think about searching in a different way. Have you ever raked through the paper card index of a big library? You have to find the necessary letter (or their combination), take the correct drawer, and start sorting through the cards. Ring any bells? After much time and effort, finally you find the long-awaited card!
Of course web search engines take away the laborious task of sifting (筛选) through paper index cards. And if you know the book’s exact author and title, either search is easy ─ on the web or in a library. But what if you know only your general search scope? Neither the author’s name nor the book title. In a library, the only way out is to ask a librarian. But on the web, what do you do? You are on your own.
Until now, Quintura is the very know-all librarian!
Imagine a conversation between you and the search engine you use most often, My Favorite Search Engine (MFSE).
You: I need some books on physics.
MFSE: No problem. We have a lot of good literature.
You: Oh. . . so many of them!
MFSE: You asked for books on physics, here, I’ve found some more.
You: No, I need only one branch of physics.
MFSE: But I have all the branches! Thousands of books. Choose whatever you want.
You: But I need the branch on solid movement: acceleration, friction and so on.
MFSE: Here they are. Books on physics. . .
Now imagine beginning the same conversation with Quintura (Qu).
You: I need some books on physics.
Qu: OK! We have a lot of good literature; what branch of physics do you need?
You: Branch? I’m not sure of its name.
Qu: What is your branch about?
You: Solid movement: acceleration, friction and so on.
Qu: Let’s see. Here is mechanics! Please note this list of books, our visitors mostly ask for these books on mechanics.
You: Thank you.

D. To prove the paper card index is worse than web search engines.
3. In the writer’s opinion, if you know only your general search scope you’d better use .
