68136.（2018•师大附中•八上期中）Maybe you have seen this in school：some students are studying nearly all the time but they just pass their exams，while others may spend much less time on their books but do much better in exams．How could this happen？People used to think that hard work is the only way to succeed．But now they have understood that smart work can make them succeed，too． Hard workers don't mind working for long hours，while smart workers always think of several different answers to these questions， "Why should I suffer this？" "Isn't there a better way to do this？" Thanks to these people，we can use computers instead of the abacus（算盘） now．Progress in every field is the direct result of "try to find a better way" by smart workers． There was a large soap factory in Japan．Once it received an unusual letter from someone who complained（抱怨） that there was no soap in the soapbox he bought． How could empty soapboxes go out of the factory？The engineers checked the producing and packing．The producing was fine，but in about one in ten thousand cases，the packing machine（包装机器） let an empty soapbox go．There was no need to spend a lot of money repairing the machine for such a small problem．The engineer soon worked out a solution，he put a huge X-ray machine and two large computers to find out the empty soapboxes．After teaching the workers how to use it，he sat down in his seat，exhausted （筋疲力尽的）． "Sir，we could have solved the problem in a much simpler and cheaper way，"a worker said． "Really？How？" "We can put a huge fan near the packing machine．The wind coming from the fan will blow away the empty boxes，leaving the other boxes with soap．" See，this is smart work．In order to succeed，we should not only work hard like the engineer，but also think smartly like this worker．
（1）Some students spend less time on schoolwork but do better in exams． A．because of their hard work B．because of different education C．because they try to find a better way D．because they study for a much longer time （2）Someone wrote to the soap factory and complained that． A．the soapbox he bought was empty B．their soap was too expensive C．the soap he bought was terrible D．their service was very bad （3）The phrase "blow away" in the passage means"" A．停止 B．远离 C．吹走 D．逃脱 （4）The article mainly tells us we shouldin order to succeed． A．work hard for long hours and study all the time B．work hard like the engineer and think smartly like the worker C．spend much less time on our schoolwork than before D．spend enough money repairing the machine for any problem
（1）C.细节理解题结合原文中的Hard workers don't mind working for long hours，while smart workers always think of several different answers to these question？""Isn't there a better way to do this，而聪明的人总是想出几个不同的答案来回答这些问题？""难道没有更好的方法吗，但成绩很好，故选C. （2）A.细节理解题结合原文中的There was a large soap factory in Japan.Once it received an unusual letter from someone who complained that there was no soap in the soapbox he bought.日本有一家大型肥皂厂，有一次收到一封不寻常的信。可知有人给肥皂公司写信抱怨他买的盒子里没有香皂． （3）C.推理判断题结合上一句话We can put a huge fan near the packing machine.可知短语所在的句子The wind coming from the fan will blow away the empty boxes leaving the other boxes with soap."的意思是"来自大风扇的风会吹走空的盒子，留下那些装有香皂的盒子"． （4）B.主旨大意题通读全文，this is smart work.In order to succeed，but also think smart like this worker.可知你看。为了成功，而且要像这个工人一样聪明地思考．

Cold weather has a great effect on how our minds and our bodies work.Maybe that is why there are so many expressions that use the word "cold".For example，the body's blood has been connected（联系）closely with the emotions.People who show no human emotions or feelings are said to be cold-blooded.Cold-blooded people act in cruel（残忍的）ways. Cold can affect other parts of the body.But the expression "get cold feet" has nothing to do with cold or your feet.The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do.For example，you agree to be the CEO of a company.But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned（辞职），and all the work of the company will be your responsibility（责任）.You probably get cold feet about being the CEO when you understand the situation（情形）. Cold can also affect your shoulder.The expression "give someone the cold shoulder" probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone，instead of speaking to him face to face.You may give the cold shoulder to a friend who doesn't keep his promise，or to someone who lies to you. "A cold fish" is not a fish.It is a person.But it is a person who is unfriendly and shows no love to others.A cold fish doesn't offer help to anyone.Someone who is a cold fish could be cold-hearted and will never feel sorry for anything. "Out in the cold" is an expression that means not getting something that everyone else gets.A person might say that everybody but him got a gift--he was left out in the cold.And it is not pleasant at all!
（1）If you get cold feet，this means that . A．you feel brave to do something B．you feel too nervous to do something C．you feel too cold to do something D．you feel angry about something （2）Which of the following expressions can describe a person who is unwilling to offer much help？ A．Cold-blooded. B．Get cold feet. C．A cold shoulder. D．A cold fish. （3）What's the passage mainly about？ A．Opinions about cold weather. B．Expressions connected with "cold" C．The relationship between "cold" and "body" D．Examples of people who have a cold. （4）Which of the following show the structure of the article？ A． B． C． D．
