分析 本文主要介紹了美國的歌手/演員麥當(dāng)娜，巴西足球運(yùn)動員比利（Pelé）以及德國網(wǎng)球運(yùn)動員施特菲•格拉芙（Steffi Graf）在自己的職業(yè)生涯中所獲得的一些成就；如：麥當(dāng)娜于1983年，有了自己的第一張專輯《假日》，1985年開始演電影；1990年的"金發(fā)雄心"演唱會引起了極大的反響；巴西足球運(yùn)動員Pelé一直以來都被許多人認(rèn)為是最偉大的足球運(yùn)動員，在十七歲時他便成為了一位世界級的明星；1970還贏得了墨西哥第三屆世界杯的冠軍；1994年，他被任命為巴西體育部部長；德國網(wǎng)球運(yùn)動員Steffi Graf十三歲成為職業(yè)運(yùn)動員后，于1986年，贏得了她的第一個重大賽事，1987年成為世界第一；在她的職業(yè)生涯中，她共贏得了超過100個冠軍，并獲得了高達(dá)2000萬美元的獎金．

解答 答案：
25．the     考查定冠詞   此處用在名詞marriage之前，特指麥當(dāng)娜與演員西恩•潘的那段婚姻；故用the．
26．designed    考查過去分詞    此處在句中作后置定語，修飾名詞clothes；由于動詞design與該名詞是被動關(guān)系，指的是：由服裝設(shè)計師 Jean Paul Gaultier  設(shè)計的特別的衣服；故填過去分詞designed．
27．Considered   考查過去分詞    本句的意思是：由于一直以來都被許多人認(rèn)為是最偉大的足球運(yùn)動員，所以在他只有十七歲時便成為了一位世界級的明星；此處在句中作原因狀語，由于動詞consider與其邏輯主語he構(gòu)成了被動關(guān)系；故用過去分詞Considered．
28．greatest   考查形容詞的最高級    本句的意思是：也許他一生中最大的成功是于1970贏得了墨西哥第三屆世界杯的冠軍；此處指的應(yīng)是：他的最大的成功；故用greatest
29．retiring    考查現(xiàn)在分詞    此處在句中做結(jié)果狀語，由于動詞retire與其邏輯主語構(gòu)成了主謂關(guān)系，指的是：他最后于1977退役；故填retiring．
30．was appointed  考查時態(tài)及語態(tài)     根據(jù)句中的時間狀語"in 1994"，此處應(yīng)使用一般過去時；由于主語He與動詞appoint構(gòu)成了被動關(guān)系；意為：1994年，他被任命為巴西體育部部長；故用一般過去時態(tài)的被動語態(tài)was appointed． 
31．After   考查從屬連詞   本句的意思是：在Graf十三歲成為職業(yè)運(yùn)動員以后，于1986年，她贏得了她的第一個重大賽事，一年后，成為世界第一；此處用來引導(dǎo)時間狀語從句，指"在…之后"；故用After．
32．has won   考查時態(tài)    本句的意思是：她在她的職業(yè)生涯中贏得了超過100個冠軍，并獲得了高達(dá)2000萬美元的獎金；此處表達(dá)的是她曾經(jīng)在運(yùn)動生涯中的成就對現(xiàn)在產(chǎn)生的影響以及結(jié)果；故用現(xiàn)在完成時has won

點(diǎn)評 本題主要考查了各種語法在短文中的具體運(yùn)用．做本題時，需要在正確理解短文的前提下，逐句分析句意以及所考查到的語法現(xiàn)象；因此在平時的學(xué)習(xí)中，應(yīng)熟練掌握各種語法知識，其中包括詞法，句法，各種時態(tài)語態(tài)以及虛擬語氣等．

14．Conventional wisdom is a major barrier to innovation（創(chuàng)新）that threatens the survival of companies everywhere．It's based on the assumption that old ideas will always work，so they shouldn't be challenged．While this may be a valid assumption in situations that don't change，it's unlikely to hold true in a changing situation．In today's rapid changing global environment，old methods often don't work，and stubbornly using them can lead to major problems．
Most people seem to agree with conventional wisdom because it gives one a false sense of security．If everyone else believes it，then it must be tree．Individuals who use conventional wisdom are certain that they are right，and being fight is good．They want to continue using old ideas rather than take risks with changes that might not work．In 1977，Ken Olsen，co-founder and CEO of Digital Equipment Corporation（DEC），stated"There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his home．"Despite being a dominant leader in the computer industry，DEC no longer exists．
People seem to forget that since innovation is a change，there can be no innovation without change．Unfortunately，conventional wisdom prevents leaders，followers and companies from changing and therefore innovating．If companies don't innovate，but their competitors do，the future is likely to be problematic（成問題的）．Breaking from conventional wisdom has led to many of the most innovative companies and products in history across many industries，so it has a powerful effect on business success．
Ted Turner（founder of CNN） knew little，if anything，about the news business，but he knew it was inconvenient to watch news only at the dinner hour，as was common before CNN．Turner's solution was to create a cable （有線的）channel devoted to news 24hours a day．The news establishment reflected conventional wisdom at the time，and predicted his idea would fail because no one wanted to watch the news all day．However，it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that viewers don't have to watch the news all day for the CNN to work．Viewers just have to watch when they want to get information．Due to conventional thinking，the critics failed to recognize the opportunity that was clear to Ted．They assumed that only what was familiar to them could work in the future．
Conventional wisdom prevents creativity，flexibility and risk-taking，so unconventional leaders enthusiastically break from it．To survive，boom and maintain competitive advantage，companies must be flexible when reacting to change．
28．DEC has disappeared probably becauseA．
A．the CEO stuck to the conventional ideas
B．the consumers didn't like its products
C．the leaders lacked the sense of security
D．the employees took many risks with changes
29．The founding of CNN is used as an example to proveC．
A．missing opportunities could lead to failure
B．watching news at the dinner hour is convenient
C．changing could contribute to business success
D．conventional wisdom influences business success
30．What does the underlined part probably mean？B
A．Rocket scientists can ensure the CNN works properly．
B．It's easy to know people needn't watch the news all the time．
C．It's necessary to understand when people watch the news．
D．Most of the viewers don't like to watch the news at work．
31．The passage is mainly written to tell us thatD．
A．old methods are changing with time
B．opportunities lead to business success
C．successful companies need wise leaders
D．conventional wisdom limits innovation．
