专升本英语模拟试题及答案解析(6.29)

　　阅读理解：

　　There is a measurable relation between how much a person learns and his attitude toward the subject to be learned. When faced with a difficult learning task, one path to success is to concentrate on the positive aspects of the subject matter. If a student has a boring teacher, one solution is to look for the positive aspects of completing the course, regardless of how boring the teacher happens to be. To accomplish this might require a private tutor or some independent reading, but with the right attitude, success is possible.

　　Over-achievers—students who do better than their test scores show—usually have a positive interest in learning. They may learn some things more slowly, and they may make more efforts, but, to compensate(补偿), they are often better at applying what they have learned. As long as they do not have emotional problems, they are successful.

　　Under-achievers—those who function below their ability shown by test scores—often tend to allow a few negative factors to affect them. Because of their negative attitudes, they sometimes become unfairly critical of teachers. They allow themselves to get bored when it is not necessary. In short, their attitudes often cause them to learn less than over-achievers.

　　If you learn to replace a negative attitude toward learning with something more positive, you are on the road to achieving almost any goal you desire. For example, if you realize a personal computer with a word processor would improve your performance, but have an attitude that keeps telling you that a computer is difficult to operate, you tend to make all kinds of excuses. In short, you resist making full use of a terrific tool, simply because your negative attitude prevents you from learning.

　　[考点]推理判断题

　　【精析】D 根据第一段最后两句“If a student has a boring teacher, one solution is…with the right attitude, success is possible.”可知，如果学生遇到一个特别无聊的老师，一个解决办法是寻找这门课程的积极方面来完成这门课，而不去管这个老师有多么无聊。为了完成这个课程你可能需要一个私人家教或者进行独立阅读，但只要有正确的态度，你就有可能成功。由此可推知，学生只有对老师有一个正确的态度才有可能获得成功。故选D。
