七选五阅读-根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

  Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious.Are these just stereotypes(模式化观念或形象)or is there really such a thing as national character? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?

  At least one group of people is certain that it can.A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs(企业家)in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public.Britain is hostile(敌意的)to success, they said.It has a culture of jealousy.(嫉妒)  1  .Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green eyed monster” and the UK is its home.

  Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea.They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money.  2  .Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others-but at the cost of losing their own.Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.

    3  .But there is also conflicting evidence.The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the world's fourth largest economy.That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success.People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe.So the British people are not lazy, either.

  “It is not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology.“It's people using their success in a way that seems proud or unfair or which separates them from their roots.”

    4  .They set out to do things in their ways.They work long hours.By their own efforts they become millionaires.  5  .It hardly seems worth following their example.If they were more friendly ,people would like them more.And more people want to be like them.

A.This seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain.

B.The one who owns most money in the end is the winner.

C.As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood.”

D.It is not true that British people are born jealous of others success.

E.Some were given a little, others a great deal.

F.But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them.

G.Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem.

  Each story is different.Some are detailed; others are unclear.Some have a beginning, middle and end;   1   wander without a clear conclusion.Yet all those things do not really matter.  2   matters to the storyteller is that the story is heard-without   3  (interrupt), statement or judgment.Listening to someone's story costs   4  (little)than expensive diagnostic testing but is key to healing and analysis.

  I often thought of what a woman once taught me, and I reminded   5   of the importance of stopping, sitting down and   6  (true)listening.

  I am a doctor.And, not long after, in   7   unexpected twist(扭伤), I became the patient, with a judgment of numerous sclerosis(细胞壁硬化)at age 31.Now, 20 years later, I sit all the time-in a wheelchair.For as long as I could, I continued to see patients from my chair,   8   I had to quit when my hands   9  (affect).I still teach medical students and other health care professionals, but now   10   the viewpoint of a physician and patient, I tell them I believe in the power of listening and tell them I know that vast healing takes place within me when someone stops, sits down and listens to my story.

We often talk about ourselves as if we have permanent genetic defects(缺陷) that can never be changed. “I’m impatient.” “I’m always behind.” “I always put things   1 !” You’ve surely heard them. Maybe you’ve used them to describe    ___2  .

These comments may come from stories about us that have been  3  for many years—often from  4  childhood. These stories may have no  5  in fact. But they can set low expectations for us. As a child, my mother said to me, “Marshall, you have no mechanical (操作机械的) skills, and you will never have any mechanical skills for the rest of your life.” How did these expectations  6  my development? I was never  7  to work on cars or be around  8  . When I was 18, I took the US Army’s Mechanical Aptitude Test. My scores were in the bottom for the entire nation!

Six years later,  9  , I was at California University, working on my doctors degree. One of my professors, Dr. Bob Tannbaum, asked me to write down things I did well and things I couldn’t do. On the positive side, I  10  down, “research, writing, analysis, and speaking.” On the  11  side, I wrote, “I have no mechanical skills.”

Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life  12 and told him about my  13  performance on the Army test. Bob then asked, “  14  is it that you can solve   15  mathematical problems, but you can’t solve simple mechanical problems?”

Suddenly I realized that I didn’t  16  from some sort of genetic defect. I was just living out expectations that I had chosen to  17  . At that point, it wasn’t just my family and friends who had been  18  my belief that I was mechanically hopeless. And it wasn’t just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself, “You can’t do this!” I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to remain true.  19  , if we don’t treat ourselves as if we have incurable genetic defects, we can do well in almost  20  we choose.
