He begins by doing little else than reading, and after he has prepared himself by three years’ study, still, he has to, almost every day, read more about some new questions which he has to answer.
The power to use books, then, is a special skill which a would-be lawyer ought to possess. He ought to have enough flexibility(灵活性)to make it easy for him to collect ideas from printed words. He ought to have some readiness to find what a book contains, and something of an instinct(直觉)for where to look for what he wants.
But although this is the power which he will first feel in need of, it is not the most important. A lawyer does not study law to recite it; he studies it to use it and act upon the rules which he has learned in real life. His business is to try cases in court and to advise people what to do in order to keep out or get out of trouble.
小题1:The first thing a law student has to do is to _______.
A.read books | B.hand over money |
C.practice law | D.answer questions |
A.to discuss the material he has read |

核心考点
试题【The law has a great many rules, showing when and how far a man is to be punished】;主要考察你对题材分类等知识点的理解。[详细]
举一反三
How would you feel if you could not joke around with your wife, husband, child, co-worker neighbor, close friend, or even just someone that you are standing in line with at your corner store? I am always saying things that make others smile or laugh, even if I don’t know the person I’m joking around with. My Grandma always found humor in everything she did, even if it was the hardest job anyone could imagine. This not only relieves stress in any situation, but also is a common manner to speak to others that are around you.
I know of a few people that don’t have a funny bone in their bodies, as they say. Everyone around them could be rolling on the floor after hearing a great joke and they would sit there without the slightest smile on their face. They don’t get the joke that makes others laugh. I am busting a gut while they just sit there, looking at me as if I were from outer space. How can people not get a really funny joke?
Laughing is essential to keep your stress levels under control. Without humor we would find ourselves with a lot of psychological problems, or on a lot of medications to keep us from going crazy. There is too much sadness in this present world. It drives people crazy. We all need to find a way to avoid the sadness and bring a little light into our lives. Therefore, I believe our best medicine is to get together and tell some jokes and have some fun laughing together.
小题1:According to the author, humor is useful in the aspect that ____________.
A.it can pick up people’s spirits |
B.it can help people get on well with others |
C.it can help get rid of the cruelty in the world |
D.it makes people more confident |
A.facts and descriptions | B.evidence and argument |
C.examples and conclusion | D.stories and persuasion |
A.keeping silent | B.speaking loud |
C.laughing hard | D.explaining carefully |
A.talk about his own understanding of humor |
B.encourage people to be humorous in daily life |
C.introduce a practical way to get through daily life |
D.convince people of the power of being optimistic about life |
A.Indifferent | B.Positive | C.Satisfied | D.Critical |
How,then, do we account for Domenica Roman or Paul Melendres?
Roman is on the tennis team at Fairmont Senior High School. She also sings in the school singing group, serves on the students’ union and is a member of the mathematics society. For two years she has kept up A’s in every subject. Melendres, a freshman at the University of New Mexico,was student-body president at Valley High School in Albuquerque. He played soccer and basketball well, exhibited at the science fair,and meanwhile worked as a reporter on a local television station. Being a speech giver at the graduation ceremony,he achieved straight A’s in his regular classes,plus rewarding points for A’s in two college-level course.
How do super—achievers like Roman and Melendres do it? Brains aren’t the only answer “Top grades don’t always go to the brightest students,” declares Herbert Walberg, a professor of education at the University of Illinois at Chicago, who has conducted major studies on super—achieving students “Knowing how to make the most of your innate(天生的)abilities counts far more. Much more.”
In fact,Walberg says,students with high IQ sometimes don’t do as well as classmates with lower IQ. For them,learning comes too easily and they never find out how to get down.
Hard work isn’t the whole story, either.“it’s not how long you sit there with the books open.”said one of the many—A students we interviewed. “It’s what you do while you’re sitting.” Indeed,some of these students actually put in fewer hours of homework time than their lower-scoring classmates. The kids at the top of the class get there by mastering a few basic techniques that others can readily learn.
小题1:What can we conclude from the first paragraph?
A.Most TV programs and films are about straight-A students |
B.People have unfavorable impression on straight—A students |
C.Everyone knows about straight-A students from TV or films |
D.Straight-A students are well admired by people in the society |
A.The interviews with more students |
B.The role IQ plays in learning well |
C.The techniques to be better learners |
D.The achievements top students make |
A.IQ is more important than hard work in study |
B.The brightest students can never get low glades |
C.Top students certainly achieve all-around developments |
D.Students with average IQ can become super-achievers |

"I just miss – I miss being unknown," he said. "I miss Saturday morning, rolling out of bed, not shaving, getting into my car with my girls, driving to the supermarket, squeezing the fruit, getting my car washed, taking walks. I can"t take a walk."
His dream, he said, was to "go through Central Park and watch folks passing by ... spend the day watching people – I miss that".
Faced with criticism for playing more golf than most previous occupants of the White House, he explained that the sport was simply the best way of getting relaxed.
"It"s the only excuse I have to get outside for four hours," he told Hearst magazines.
Though he said he enjoyed his life in the White House, he felt disillusioned(醒悟的,幻想破灭的) with the some of the ways of Washington, which he has failed to change, such as the "kabuki dance(日本歌舞)" among political parties before serious policy discussions begin. His comments may be seen as excuse by critics who have accused him of appearing too detached(漠然), and being slow to engage in important issues such as Libya and the near shutdown of the US government last week.

The survey by travel website hotels.com found London taxis, despite being the most expensive, beat rivals(对手)across the globe to head the list for the third consecutive(连续的)years, scoring a total of 59 percent in votes on several categories by travelers.
London taxi drivers were voted both friendliest and most knowledgeable. Drivers in the English capital must pass a rigorous examination called The Knowledge to earn their taxi license.
New York"s yellow taxis came second in the list, scoring 27 percent which was up 10 percentage points from last year even though Manhattan"s cab drivers tied (打成平局)with Parisian taxi drivers as the rudest.
