1、Passage 1
The secret of being born lucky is a summer birthday, with May babies most likely to enjoy a lifetime‘s good fortune, according to a study of more than 40,000 people. The time of year at which you are born has an enduring influence on levels of optimism and self-reported luck, according to a research by British and Swedish scientists. May was the luckiest month in which to be born, with 50 percent of those born then considering themselves lucky, while October was the least lucky month, with just 43 percent claiming good fortune.
The findings add to growing evidence that the phenomenon of luck is not all down to chance, but is affected by a person‘s general disposition. Other research has shown that whether people think themselves fortunate depends less on objective success than on having a ―glass half-full‖ or“half-empty‖ approach to life. ―What we are seeing suggests that something is influencing how people perceive their luckiness. My hypothesis is that people create their own luck by traits such as optimism, that luck is a psychological phenomenon rather than a matter of blind chance,‖ said Professor Richard Wiseman, who led the research.
The pattern of the result, with those born in spring and in summer reporting themselves luckier than those born in autumn or winter, could have two potential explanations, Professor Wiseman said.1.According to the passage, whether people think themselves lucky or not depends on the following factors EXCEPT( ).

A、　one‘s objective success

B、　one‘s general disposition

C、　one‘s attitude to life

D、　one‘s place of birth

答案：D

1、Passage 19Throughout her working life, a ship — like a motorcar — must be serviced regularly if she
is to remain efficient. After a period at sea she must be overall checked and any necessary repairs
must be made. There are also instances when a ship must be converted from being one kind of
carrier to another. Most of today‘s oil, for example, is carried by huge super-tankers. The smaller
tankers, many of which are still in good condition, can be converted into bulk carriers（散货船）
for the transport of sugar, coal or ore.
Conversion or repair work is carried out in a dry dock, a huge hole cut into the ground and
lined with concrete. At one end are large gates separating the dock from the river or sea. When
these gates are opened, water pours into the dock and fills it. A ship can then enter the dock, where
it is carefully fastened in an upright position.When the ship is positioned inside the dock, the gates are closed and the water is pumped out.
The vessel slowly settles on to wooden blocks. Wooden supporters are put in position between the
ship and the sides of the dock to prevent her from rolling over. Great care is taken to make sure
that the ship rests evenly on the keel（龙骨）blocks to prevent damage being done.
As soon as the ship is firmly positioned, repair or conversion work can begin on her body or
superstructure.
5. According to the passage, how is a ship kept upright in a dry dock?
