Ⅱ.完形填空
Sme persnal characteristics play an imprtant rle in the develpment f ne's intelligence. But peple fail t realize the imprtance f training these factrs in yung peple.
The s-called “nn-intelligence factrs” (非智力因素) include 16 feelings, will, mtivatin, interests and habits. After a 30-year-fllw-up study f 8 000 males, American psychlgists (心理学家) 17 that the main cause f disparities in intelligence is nt intelligence 18 , but nn-intelligence factrs including the desire t learn, will-pwer and self-cnfidence.
19 peple all knw that ne shuld have definite bjectives, a strng will and gd learning habits, quite a number f teachers and parents dn't pay much attentin t 20 these factrs.
Sme parents are greatly wrried 21 their children fail t d Well in their studies. They blame either genetic (遗传的) factrs, malnutritin (营养不良), r laziness, but they never take 22 cnsideratin these nn-intelligence factrs. At the same time, sme teachers dn't inquire int these as reasns 23 students d prly. They simply give them mre curses and exercises, r 24 criticize r laugh at them. After all, these students lse self-cnfidence. Sme f them just feel defeated and 25 themselves up as hpeless. Others may g astray (迷途的) because they are sick f learning. 26 investigatin f mre than 1000 middle schl students in Shanghai shwed that 46.5 percent f them were 27 f learning, because f examinatins, 36. 4 percent lacked persistence, initiative and cnsciusness and 10. 3 percent were sick f learning.
It is clear 28 the lack f cultivatin f nn-intelligence factrs has been a main 29 t intelligence develpment in teenagers. It even causes an imbalance between physilgical (生理的)and 30 develpment amng a few students.
If we dn't start nw t 31 the cultivatin f nn-intelligence factrs, it will nt nly affect the develpment f the 32 f teenagers, but als affect the quality f a whle generatin. Sme experts have put frward 33 abut hw t cultivate students' nn-intelligence factrs.
First, parents and teachers shuld 34 understand teenage psychlgy. On this basis, they can help them t pursue (调动) the bjectives f learning, 35 their interests and tughening their will-pwer.

Reprts frm the area said 218 bdies had been cunted, and many f the peple were missing.
The fld fllwed heavy rains, which filled the castal plain and dried river beds and caused them t verflw. The fld crest, several feet high, hit the village f Khemis Nagua at midmrning yesterday as farmers frm the surrunding area jined twn peple in an pen market place.

Thirteen vehicles lined up last March t race acrss the Mjave Desert, seeking a millin in prize mney. T win, they had t finish the 142-mile race in less than 10 hurs. Teams and watchers knew there might be n winner at all, because these vehicles were missing a key part—drivers.
DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Prjects Agency, rganized the race as part f a push t develp rbtic vehicles fr future battlefields. But the Grand Challenge, as it was called, just prved hw difficult it is t get a car t speed acrss an unfamiliar desert withut human guidance. One had its brake lck up in the starting area, Anther began by thrwing itself nt a wall. Anther gt tied up by bushes near the rad after 1.9 miles.
One turned upside dwn. One tk ff in entirely the wrng directin and had t be disabled by remte (远距离的) cnsl. One went a little mre than a mile and rushed int a fence; anther managed t g fr six miles but stuck n a rck. The “winner,”if there was any, reached 7.8 miles befre it ran int a lng, narrw hle, and the frnt wheels caught n fire.
“Yu get a lt f respect fr natural abilities f the living things,” says Reinhld Behringer, wh helped design tw f the ear-size vehicles fr a cmpany called Sci-Autnics, “Even ants (蚂蚁) can d all these tasks effrtlessly. It's very hard fr us t put these abilities int ur machines.”
The rbtic vehicles, thugh with necessary mdern equipment such as advanced cmputers and GPS guidance, had truble figuring ut fast enugh the blcks ahead that a tw-year-ld human recgnizes immediately. Sure, that very yung child, wh has just nly learned t walk, may nt think t wipe apple juice ff her face, but she already knws that when there's a ckie in the kitchen she has t climb up the table, and that when she gets t the ckie it will taste gd. She is mre advanced, even mnths ld, than any machine humans have designed.
46. Watchers dubted if any f the vehicles culd finish the race because ______.
A. they did nt have any human guidance
B. the rad was nt familiar t the drivers
C. the distance was t lng fr the vehicles
D. the prize mney was unattractive t the drivers
47. DARPA rganized the race in rder t ______.
A. raise mney fr prducing mre rbtic vehicles
B. push the develpment f vehicle industry
C. train mre peple t drive in the desert
D. imprve the vehicles fr future wars

A. can d effrtlessly whatever tasks living things can
B. can take part in a race acrss 142 miles with a time limit
C. can shw ff their ability t turn themselves upside dwn
D. can mve frm place t 101ace withut being driven by human beings
49. In the race, the greatest distance ne rbtic vehicle cvered was

B. six miles
C. almst tw miles
D. abut ne mile
50. In the last paragraph, the writer implies that there is a lng way t g
