B
It is named a kind of wooden Eiffel Tower, because of the fact that there was a large wooden platform
far out in the lake on which stood an improbably high diving board. It was, I’m sure, the
county’s tallest
wooden structure and no one had ever been known to jump from it.
So it was quite a shock when our teacher, Mr. David, announced that he would dive off the high board
that very afternoon.
Word
of
his
questionable
plan
was
already
spreading
through
town
as
Mr.
David
swam
out
to
the
platform. He was just a tiny, stick figure when he got there but even from such a distance the high board
seemed almost to touch the clouds. Once at the top, he paced the enormously long board, then took some
deep breaths and finally stood at edge. He was going to do it.
Several hundred people had gathered at the shore to watch. Mr. David stood for quite a long time, then
he raised his arms, took one massive bounce and launched himself into a perfect dive. It was beautiful. He
fell with perfect style for what seemed minutes. The crowd fell silent. The only sound to be heard was the
faint whistle of his body tearing through the air toward the water far, far below.
But about three quarters of the way down he seemed to have second thoughts and began suddenly to
panic, waving his arms and legs like someone having a bad dream. When he was perhaps thirty feet above
the
water,
he
gave
up
on
waving
and
spread
his
arms
and
legs
wide,
apparently
hoping
that
it
would
somehow slow his fall.
It did
n’t.
He hit the water at over six hundred miles an hour. The impact was so loud that it made birds fly out of
·
3
·
their trees three miles away. I don’t think he entered the water at all. He just bounced off it,
about fifteen
feet back into the air. After that, he lay still on the surface, spinning like an autumn leaf.
He was brought to shore by two passing fishermen in a rowboat and placed on an old blanket where he
spent the rest of the afternoon. Occasionally he accepted small sips of water, but otherwise was too shocked
to speak. From head to toe, he was covered with deep red bruises.
…
It was the best day of my life.
24. How did the writer find Mr. David’s plan to jump from the diving board?
A. Heroic.
B. Disappointing.
C. Crazy.
D. Confused.
25. In Paragraph 3, Mr David is described as “a tiny, stick figure” because he was ________.
A. very far away
B. very small and thin
C. tired after swimming
D. sure to be broken
26. Why did Mr. David suddenly start swinging his arms and legs during the dive?
A. He thought it was the best way to slow his fall.
B. He wanted to show his courage.
C. He was signalling the crowd for help.
D. He lost his confidence and started to panic,
27. Which of the following sentences from the passage is an example of a fact?
A. He hit the water at over six hundred miles an hour.
B. He was brought to shore by two passing fishermen in a rowboat.
C. He just bounced off it, about fifteen feet back into the air.
D. The impact was so loud that it made birds fly out of trees up to three miles away.
C
Conventional wisdom is a major barrier to innovation
（创新）
that threatens the survival of companies
everywhere. It’s based on the assumption
that old ideas will always work, so they
shouldn’t be challenged.
While this may be a valid assumption in situations that don’t change, it’s
unlikely to hold true in a changing
situation. In today’s rapid changing global environment, old
methods often don
’t work, and stubbornly using
them can lead to major problems.
Most people seem to agree with conventional wisdom because it gives one a false sense of security. If
everyone
else
believes
it,
then
it
must
be
tree.
Individuals
who
use
conventional
wisdom
are
certain
that
they are right, and being fight is good. They want to continue using old ideas rather than take risks with
changes that might not work. In 1977, Ken Olsen, co-founder and CEO of Digital Equipment Corporation
（
DEC
）
, stated
“
There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in
his home.” Despite being a
dominant leader in the computer industry, DEC no longer exists.
People seem to forget that since innovation is a change, there can be no innovation without change.
Unfortunately,
conventional
wisdom
prevents
leaders,
followers
and
companies
from
changing
and
therefore
innovating.
If
companies
don’t
innovate,
but
their
competitors
do,
the
future
is
likely
to
be
problematic
（成问题的）
.
Breaking
from
conventional
wisdom
has
led
to
many
of
the
most
innovative
companies and products in history across many industries, so it has a powerful effect on business success.
Ted Turner
（
founder of CNN
）
knew little, if anything, about the news business, but he knew it was
inconvenient to watch news only at the dinner hour, as was common before CNN. Turner’s
solution was to
create
a
cable
（有线的）
channel
devoted
to
news
24
hours
a
day.
The
news
establishment
reflected
conventional
wisdom
at
the
time,
and
predicted
his
idea
would
fail
because
no
one
wanted
to
watch
the
·

·
news all day. However,
it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand that viewers don’t
have to watch the
news all day for the CNN to work. Viewers just have to watch when they want to get information. Due to
conventional thinking, the critics failed to recognize the opportunity that was clear to Ted. They assumed
that only what was familiar to them could work in the future.
Conventional
wisdom
prevents
creativity,
flexibility
and
risk-taking,
so
unconventional
leaders
enthusiastically break from it. To survive, boom and maintain competitive advantage, companies must be
flexible when reacting to change.
28. DEC has disappeared probably because ________.
A. the CEO stuck to the conventional ideas
B. the consumers didn’t like its products
C. the leaders lacked the sense of security
D. the employees took many risks with changes
29. The founding of CNN is used as an example to prove ________.
A. missing opportunities could lead to failure
B. watching news at the dinner hour is convenient
C. changing could contribute to business success
D. conventional wisdom influences business success
30. What does the underlined part probably mean?
A. Rocket scientists can ensure the CNN works properly.
B. It’s easy to know people needn’t watch the news all the time.
C. It’s necessary to understand when people watch the news.
D. Most of the viewers don’t like to watch the news at wor
k.
31. The passage is mainly written to tell us that ________.
A. old methods are changing with time
B. opportunities lead to business success
C. successful companies need wise leaders
D. conventional wisdom limits innovation
D
This year, Face book, the social media website announced that it would cooperate with several news
organizations
—
including
The
New
York
Times,
The
Guardian,
and
the
BBC
—
to
place
news
stories
directly into users’ personal Face book webpage. Stories published us
ing Face book Instant will load more
quickly and keep the style of the original publisher, who will keep all the advertising income the stories earn
—
at least for now. The deal shows how important social media has become to news organizations, and is a
clear sign of how the world of news is changing
—
and has been for a while.
Many thought of it as the death of the newspaper, when Google News began in 2002. It had no human
editor. Instead Google used, and still uses, a secret computer program that selects and displays news stories
according
to
the
reader’s
personal
interests,
More
recently,
Associated
Press
and
Yahoo
have
been
publishing
computer-written
articles.
Both
use
special
software
to
automatically
produce
stories
about
company financial results and sports reports
—
areas where the quality of writing is felt to be of secondary
importance to the accuracy of the data.
I think we should be concerned about such developments. One concern is that Facebook, Google and
other
social
media
websites
see
journalism
as
a
sideline
（副业）
,
a
way
of
putting
people
in
front
