25．At the beginning of Grade Two，I joined the cross-country running team in our school.
When I came to the first practice，I was filled with optimism.But as the distance we ran in each practice gradually increased from three to four，to six miles，I realized with surprise that no matter how hard I tried，I wasn't able to run as fast as others.In fact，I was one of the slowest on the team.
What was the point of putting myself through so much pain？After the first few weeks，I wanted to quit.
Then we had our first cross-country meet.
When we started the race，I felt the great pressure of expectations sink onto my shoulders.And after a while I stopped running and struggled to walk up the hill.But then I heard my coaches shouting my name from the top of the hill.I felt confused and embarrassed；why were they cheering for me？I was running terribly!As I tried my best to finish the race，I realized that my coaches didn't care how fast I ran.Neither did my teammates.During the rest of the season，they were always on the sidelines of every race，cheering for me just as loudly as they'd cheered for the front runner.
From then on，I began to put my effort into supporting my teammates instead of focusing on my own performance.In that way，I celebrated my teammates' victories as if they were my own；I felt their pain and exhaustion as if they were my own.
Cross-country running made me realize I don't need to be the best to be successful in life.It taught me to value my relationships with people more than my relationship with my ego.It taught me to cheer for others even if I don't know their names.
（1）Why did the author want to give up after the first few weeks？
A．He had much pain in his knees.
B．He didn't perform well in long-distance running.
C．He couldn't get along well with others
D．He showed no interest in running.
（2）Which of the following can best describe the coaches？
A．Strict and hard-hearted.
B．Brave and adventurous.
C．Considerate and supportive.
D．Optimistic and humorous.
（3）After his first cross-country race，the author.
A．lost himself in victories
B．put more effort into his study
C．received more support from his coaches
D．started caring about his teammates
（4）What did the author realize from his experience？
A．The importance of team spirit
B．The value of competition
C．The secret of winning a race
D．The benefits of doing sports組卷：5引用：7難度：0.5 -

27．Last spring，I was fortunate to be chosen to join in an exchange study programme.The moment I arrived in Paris，I was greeted by a nice French couple who would become my host parents.The bit of French I had taken in high school began coming out of my mouth；speaking the language would only become more natural over the course of the term.At the airport，we all got into the couple's car and began the journey to their townhouse.We talked the whole way，getting to know one another.
Every day afterwards，I would eat breakfast with the two of them，and then we'd all go our separate ways for the day.In the evening，my host mother would make delicious dinners for the three of us.My experience was exciting until I received some shocking news from my programme coordinator（協(xié)調(diào)人）：There had been a death in my host parents' family and they would have to be away for several weeks to deal with all the business that arose from the death.That afternoon，I had to move out of the family's house and into another.
The coordinator told me I'd have a roommate and asked whether I would mind sharing a bedroom with an English speaker.To avoid speaking my native language，I asked not to be placed with an English-speaking roommate.When I got to my new room，I introduced myself to my new roommate Paolo，a Brazilian（巴西人），the same age as I，whom I was surprised to find playing one of my favourite CDs on his computer!In just a few hours，we knew we'd be good friends for the rest of the term.
I left France with many stories，so when people ask me what my favourite part of the trip was，they always hear about my Brazilian friend Paolo and the weekdays in class，weeknights in the town，and weekends exploring France we enjoyed together.I would recommend an exchange programme to anyone who wants to experience foreign cultures and gain meaningful friendships.

28． Over millions of years humans have responded to certain situations without thinking too hard.If our ancestors spotted movement in the nearby forest，they would run first and question ljye.aier.At the same time，the ability to analyze and to plan is part of what separates us from other animals.The question of when to trust your instinct （直覺） and when to think slow matters in the office as much as in the savannah （草原）.
Slow thinking is the feature of a well-managed workplace.Yet instinct also has its place.Some decisions are more connected to emotional responses and less to analysis.In demanding customer-service or public-facing situations，instinct is often a better guide to how to behave.
Instinct can also be improved.Plenty of research has shown that instinct becomes more unerring with experience.In one well-known experiment，volunteers were asked to assess whether a selection of designer handbags were real or not.Some were instructed to operate on instinct and others to deliberate （深思熟慮） over their decision.Instinct worked better for those who owned at least three designer handbags；indeed，it outperformed analysis.The more expert you become，the better your instinct tends to be.
However，the real reason to embrace fast thinking is that it is，well，fast.It is often the only way to get through the day.To take one example，when your inbox floods with new emails at the start of a new day，there is absolutely no way to read them all carefully.Instinct is what helps you decide which ones to answer and which to delete or leave unopened.Fast thinking can also help the entire organization.The value of many managerial decisions lies in the simple fact that they have been made at all.Yet as data explodes，the temptation to ask for one more bit of analysis has become much harder to resist.Managers often suffer from overthinking，turning a simple problem into a complex one.
When to use instinct in the workplace rests on its own form of pattern recognition.Does the decision maker have real expertise in this area？Is this a field in which emotion matters more than reasoning？Above all，is it worth delaying the decision？Slow thinking is needed to get the big calls right.But fast thinking is the way to stop deliberation turning to a waste of time.
（1）What does the underlined word "unerring" in Paragraph 3 probably mean？
A．Accurate.
B．Creative.
C．Controllable.
D．Obvious.
（2）How is the third paragraph mainly developed？
A．By process.
B．By comparison.
C．By example.
D．By classification.
（3）What can we learn from the passage？
A．Managers can afford the cost of slow thinking.
B．Fast thinking can be a boost to work efficiency.
C．Slow thinking will hold us back in the long run.
D．Too much data is to blame for wrong decisions.
（4）What is the author's purpose of writing the passage？
A．To explain how instinct works in the office.
B．To tell the difference between instinct and slow thinking.
C．To highlight the value of instinct in the workplace.
D．To illustrate the development of different thinking patterns.組卷：2引用：2難度：0.5
