2017安徽高考英语试卷及答案及英语调研考试试卷(2)
D
In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity (繁荣). Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.
I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit(追求)of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.
However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which only values the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among those who are against competition are young people who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try.” What is not usually admitted by them is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot.Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one’s self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to disappear can we discover a new meaning in competition.
32. What is the best title of this passage?
A. Competition! Why Friends Turn into Enemies
B. Competition! What Self-respect Depends on
C. New Meaning Found in Competition
D. Two Mistaken Beliefs about Competition
33. Why do some young people suffering from competitive pressures seek failure?
A. Because they are aware that they will not succeed in competition.
B. Because they don’t think it worthwhile to compete with others.
C. Because they are afraid that they would not be valued if they lost.
D. Because they are fed up with the great efforts needed to compete with others.
34. Which of the following will the author probably agree with?
A. One should treat competition as a life-and-death affair.
B. One should make every effort to avoid competition.
C. One should get rid of the fear of failure in competition.
D. One should be given rewards after competing with others.
35. The true competitors and those with a desire to fail both believe ________.
A. one’s self-worth comes from how well he performs in comparison with others
B. one’s dream can be achieved if he has mastered good communication skills
C. one’s failure happens when he is suffering from emotional problems
D. one’s success is based on how hard he has tried

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
For a lot of parents, sending their kids off to college is a bittersweet experience. I think a lot of teenagers head to college without any idea about how money works. Don’t let that happen to your college kid. Help them understand these issues before they step into that first class.
·Budget, budget, budget. 36 So start by making sure you understand budgeting and have begun to use it as part of your financial plan.
·Independence means responsibility. Living away from home means you have to take care of yourself. 37 Food doesn’t just drop out of the sky, and gas doesn’t magically appear in their car. Independence means responsibility.
· 38 Even if your kid is going to a small community college, they’ll still probably have a few thousand dollars of tuition to pay. If you break it down, one class can cost class="main">

·Choose a major wisely. 39 This isn’t a must before they step on campus, but simply plant a seed that gets them started thinking about what they want to do with their life. You don’t want them graduating with a degree that leaves them unfulfilled or unable to find a job.
·Friends matter. 40 Who you hang out with definitely influences how you spend money and the decisions you make. Without being overbearing, remind them how important it is to have positive friends who build them up instead of bringing them down.
Remember, as a parent, just be there for support and to strengthen these principles throughout their college experience.
A. College isn’t cheap.
B. Cherish your opportunity.
C. Help your teenager find his or her passion.
D. However, not all friends can be really depended on.
E. New friends mean new opportunities and social situations.
F. Do your best to prepare your son or daughter for what that means.
G. If you aren’t using a budget, it’ll be difficult to convince your kid to use one.
