Ⅰ. 完形填空。
Which is more important for success, talent or hard work? I believe that hard work comes before talent. Talent is something that one is born with. It is a great ability that makes success easier. Mozart is a great musician. He showed talent when he was very young. He could even play the piano well at the age of 4.
But ordinary (普通的) people need to find out their weaknesses and make every effort to get over them. It is through hard work that they will succeed.
Life is like a long - distance race. Talent can help us at the beginning, but the one who crosses the finish line first is the winner. During the race, hard work is the key. And no one can make a difference without this key.
It is said, “Hard work beats talent when talent fails to work hard, so even talent needs hard work.” Einstein was talented, but could he have worked out his theories (理论) if he had just sat on a sofa and done nothing? It was his great effort that made him a great scientist.
Hard work can help both the ordinary person and the talent. Everyone should work hard and the gate of success won’t open unless we put our all into life.

Ⅱ. 词语运用。
My mom once told me that after I learned to say “Mama” and “Dada”, my 11. third (three) word was “no”! Sadly, I used that word too often as a boy. I didn’t want to brush my 12. teeth (tooth). I didn’t want to go to bed 13. on time. I didn’t want to work in the garden. I would rather read books than help my mom and grandma with the chores.
In other words, I was a bit of a brat (顽童). Being the 14. youngest (young) of the three sons, I probably said “no” a lot more than I should have.
As I grew up, I 15. began (begin) to say “yes” a lot more. I can remember making the bed and 16. sweeping (sweep) the floor. I helped my mother and father 17. happily (happy) in the garden. I can remember studying 18. hard to get good grades in school and the pride in my parents’ eyes when I got into college.
Even now, I am still learning how to say “yes”. I still often say “no”. My only advice to you is not to wait as long 19. as I did.
Say “yes” to life. Say “yes” to love. Say “yes” to helping others and making this world a better place. “Yes” may only be a word, but it can change 20. your (you) life.

答案： 11. third 12. teeth 13. on
14. youngest 15. began
16. sweeping 17. happily 18. hard
19. as 20. your
