【題目】根據(jù)短文內容, 從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
What do the world's most successful people all have in common?
By examining the work habits of over 150 greatest writers and artists and scientists, the researchers including Standford Professor Jeffrey Preffer found that high achievers like Robert Moses turn out to be all alike:
Busy ! Busy!
In a study of general managers in industry, John Kotter reported that many of them worked 60 to 65 hours per week—which translates into at least six 10-hour days. The ability and willingness to work difficult and tiring hours has characterized many powerful figures. Energy and strength provide many advantages to those seeking to build power.
Just Say No!
The difference between successful people and very successful people is that very successful people say “no” to almost everything. And that's what gives them the time to accomplish so much. And focus means saying “no” to a lot of distractions(分神).
Know What You Are!
Ignore your weakness and keep improving your strengths. Don't waste time exploring skill areas where you have little competence. Instead, focus on—and build on—your strengths..
Create Good Luck!
Luck is not magical—there is a science to it. Richard Wiseman studied lucky people for his book Luck Factor, and broke down what they do right. By being more outgoing, open to new ideas, following the feeling that something is true, being optimistic, lucky people create possibilities.
Does applying these principles to your life actually work? Wiseman created a “l(fā)uck school” to test the ideas—and it was a success. In total, 80 percent of people who attended Luck School said that their luck had increased. .
A. Spend enough time to improve your weakness.
B. Achievement requires focus.
C. On average, these people reported that their luck had increased by more than 40 percent.
D. High achievers never stop working and they never lose a minute.
E. Busy people are more likely to be lucky.
F. This means knowing who you are, what you are and what you are good at.
G. Certain personality types are luckier because they behave in a way that offers the chance for good opportunities.

【答案】D;B;F;G;C
【解析】這篇文章寫世界上最成功的人所擁有的共同點。
(1)D根據(jù)下句:在產(chǎn)業(yè)總經(jīng)理的一項研究中,John Kotter報道他們中的許多人每周工作60到65個小時?芍暇涞囊馑际牵焊叱删偷娜藦牟煌V构ぷ,他們從不浪費一分鐘。故選D。
(2)B考查上下文邏輯推理及語境理解。根據(jù)下文And focus means saying “no” to a lot of distractions (分神).可知,成功需要專注。 原句中“focus”和選項“focus”關鍵詞相同。故選B。
(3)F考查上下文邏輯推理及語境理解。根據(jù)本段的標題“Know What You Are!”與選項“F. This means knowing who you are, what you are and what you are good at.”結構一致。故選F。
(4)G考查上下文邏輯推理及語境理解。根據(jù)下句“By being more outgoing, open to new ideas, following the feeling that something is true, being optimistic, lucky people create possibilities.”更加開朗,樂于接受新思維,正確的感知,積極,幸運的人創(chuàng)造可能?芍xG。選項中“personality types”和空格的下句“outgoing, open to new ideas, following the feeling that something is true, optimistic.”是指代關系。
(5)C考查上下文邏輯推理及語境理解。根據(jù)空格上句的“their luck had increased.”.和選項“C. On average, these people reported that their luck had increased by more than 40 percent.”意義一致。
