When I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, ”Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish.” I remember being even more upset then because, “I’m not a fish!” I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?
As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids(眼皮) and the sun hurts their eyes…The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.
When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need to think like salespeople.” But it didn’t completely make sense. My dad never once said, “If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.
51. Why was the author upset in fishing trips when he was nine？
A. He could not catch a fish
B. His father was not patient with him
C. His father did not teach him fishing
D. He could not influence a fish as his father did
52. What did the author’s father really mean?
A. To read about fish
B. To learn fishing by oneself
C. To understand what fish think
D. To study fishing in many ways
53. According to the author, fish are most likely to be found .
A. in deep water on sunny days
B. in deep water on cloudy days
C. in shallow water under sunlight
D. in shallow water under waterside trees
54. After entering the business world，the author found .
A. it easy to think like a customer
B. his father’s fishing advice inspiring
C. his first boss’s sales ideas reasonable
D. it difficult to sell services to poor people
55. This passage most likely comes from .
A. a fishing guide
B. a popular sales book

【分析】这是一篇记叙文。本文叙述了作者通过以父亲教授他钓鱼时，要像鱼一样思考，学会钓鱼的道理，告诉大家从事商业销售时要像消费者一样去思考。
【51题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的But that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset. 可知，但这不是很有趣的是，他可以抓很多鱼，而我什么也抓不到。我通常很沮丧。所以作者感到沮丧，是因为他一条鱼也抓不到。故选A。
【52题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.可以，我越了解鱼，我越能有效的找到并抓住鱼。由此判断出父亲的意思是了解鱼的想法。故选C。
【53题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids(眼皮) and the sun hurts their eyes. 我了解到鱼是一种冷血动物，因此对水温非常敏感。这就是为什么鱼类喜欢浅水而不喜欢深水，因为前者比较温暖。此外，水在阳光直射下通常比在阴凉处更暖和。然而，鱼却没有眼皮，太阳会伤害它们的眼睛。由此判断出，根据作者的说法，鱼最有可能出现在浅水区的水边树下。故选D。
【54题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers可知，我逐渐了解我们需要像消费者一样去思考，这与父亲的“You need to think like a fish”相似，由此判断出，作者进入商界后，作者发现他父亲的钓鱼建议很有启发性。故选B。
【55题详解】
推理判断题。根据It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters“这不是一份轻松的工作，我将在下面几章里向你们展示如何去做”，故推断这篇短文很可能来自一本畅销书。故选B。

C
An Olympic Village is a place that houses Olympic competitors. It is a place where they prepare for what might be the most important moment in their life. But we want to know more about this mysterious (神秘的) place: What really happens in the village?
We asked swimmer Natalie Coughlin, a three-time Olympian and 12-time medalist. She says, “People think it’s a lot more attractive and interesting than it is. It isn’t. It’s like a huge college campus, including a bank, a salon, a post office, and a huge cafeteria — except that everyone is anxious, getting ready for their biggest event under unbelievably high pressure.”
But some other Olympians look differently at their campus. “It’s like the first day of college,” water polo player Tony Azevedo says. “You’re super excited. Everyone’s meeting people and trying to socialize with others.”
Coughlin says the best spot to be in the village is the cafeteria. Not only does it provide a place to talk with the rest of the athletes from your country, but it’s a great chance for people-watching. One of her favorite games was to tell what sport someone in front of her took based on their body type.
Living in the same village means athletes run into one another all the time. Coughlin shares this story: While in London in 2012, at one point applause (欢呼) broke out at the arrival of someone. Coughlin thought it was one of the British royals, but it was Jamaica’s Usain Bolt (the world’s greatest runner alive). Runner Allyson Felix — a winner of six gold Olympic medals — has also had her run-ins. In 2008, she came across the world-famous U.S. men’s basketball team, including Anthony, Bryant, Wade and other top players.
It’s “a pretty wild scene, the biggest melting pot — a place where large numbers of people, ideas, and cultures are mixed together— you’ve been in,” said swimmer Eric Shanteau. Felix agrees, saying, “You get to meet people from other countries that you wouldn’t even come into contact with. To me that’s the coolest thing.”
56. The purpose of the first paragraph is to ______.
A. provide examples
B. present research findings
C. introduce the topic
D. give suggestions
57. What does Coughlin say about the Olympic villagers?
A. They are very nervous.
B. They like to make friends.
C. They enjoy the village very much.
D. They spend most of their time relaxing.
58. What did Coughlin often do at the cafeteria in the Olympic Village?
A. She often watched other people play games there.
B. She often spent time with athletes from other countries.
C. She often gave fitness advice to others according to their body features.
D. She often tried guessing a person’s sport.
59. What do both Coughlin and Felix tell us in Paragraph 5?
A. Why Olympians are so popular.
B. How they met superstars in the village.
C. Why the Olympic Village is mysterious.
D. How they communicated with other players.
60. What impresses Felix most in the Olympic Village?
A. Spending time with some old foreign friends.
B. The positive influence of the Olympic spirit.
C. Mixing with people from around the world.
D. The competitive atmosphere in the village.
【答案】56. C 57. A 58. D 59. B 60. C
