第二部分 阅读理解（满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
The most typical definition of success is “the accomplishment of an aim or purpose” or what most of
21．（6分）
us have heard: “the attainment of popularity or profit.” But is Success really defined by purposes or profit?
B
．
which
B
．
makes money
After graduating from high school, my family advised me to aim to build a successful career. My options were
narrowed down to becoming a doctor or choosing a field in engineering. So I graduated with a chemical engineering
degree. I was advised to aim for graduate studies, and in less than two years, I had a highly specialized degree in plastics
engineering from one of the most reputable universities in the U.S. Then I found a corporate job, performed well in the
organization, climbed up the ladder, and made a bigger pay cheque with every new title. My proud parents told my
story to the rest of the family and friends as a “success” story.
No matter where we live in the world, we all have our own versions of success. Our families take pride in telling the
world how successful we are in our profession, and often the only measure of that success becomes the financial wealth
we accumulate. In a world where everything is reflected by numbers — the likes on Facebook, the number of views on
YouTube, etc. — every aspect of our life is being taken over by numbers. We are conditioned to believe that the stronger
your financial standing, the higher you rank on the success chart. But remember the words, “aim” or “purpose,” in the
definition of success. Altruistic figures such as Mother Teresa, Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. also lived
successful lives but had selfless concern over the well-being of others. While the rest of the world focused on
accumulating wealth, they focused on giving, doing, and creating for everyone else.
Wealth alone never will be the measure of success. Think beyond profits. No promotion or pay raise I ever received
in my professional career was because of my deep desire to obtain a better title or higher pay; instead, it was based on
the excellence I created in the experience our customers had with the organization.

Yasuda is 95 years old. Looking for easier ways to search the Web and send email, he bought Apple’s iPad.
22．（8分）
The company has sold 3.27 million iPads since they entered the market in April. Although it’s impossible to know with
certainty how many seniors (
老年人
) are buying them, evidence suggests that it’s a hit with seniors.
The iPad’s intuitive interface (
直观界面
) makes it attractive to seniors around the world, says Takahiro Miura, a
researcher at the University of Tokyou. “The iPad is a good tool for seniors because it’s very easy to use,” he says. Unlike
the PC, it doesn’t require former knowledge.”
James Cordwell, a researcher in London, says the iPad’s popularity with seniors is helping Apple reach beyond its
traditional base of young customers. “The world’s population, especially in developed markets, is getting older. It’s
probably a market where Apple has least entered,” Cordwell says. Senior users are a key source of growth for them in
the future.
Seniors make. up about 22 percent of the population in Japan. They may prove that seniors are willing to accept the
iPad. Besides the customer group under 30, they spend more than any other group in the country, according to a report.
Motoo Kitamura, 78, a former gas salesman, bought an iPad to help him communicate with his 2-year-old grandson and
prevent him from experiencing some of the mental problems that sometimes come with getting older. “Trying new things
like that is good mental exercise,” he says.

Saja Pahad, a small village in Chhattisgarh, India, has been dealing with severe water shortages for as
long as anyone can remember. With only two wells available, locals were barely able to secure enough water to feed their
cattle, let alone irrigate their crops. Villagers didn’t know what to do and the government ignored their difficult
situation, but one “crazy” teenager took matters into his own hands.
Shyam Lal was only 15 when he took it upon himself to solve his village’s water problem. He identified a spot in a
nearby forest and decided to dig a pond to collect rainfall that could then be used by the entire village. Lal shared his
idea with the rest of Saja Pahad, but instead of volunteering to help, they just laughed at his crazy plan and called him a
lunatic
（疯子）
. But the young man didn’t let the people’s reaction get him down. Instead, he grabbed a spade and
started digging the pond himself. He kept on digging for the next 27 years.
Now 42, Shyam Lal is considered a hero and a savior by his community. That small hole he started digging nearly
three decades ago is now a one-acre, 15-feet-deep pond filled with precious water that serves the entire village.
“No one helped me in my work, neither the government nor the villagers,” Lal told the Hindustan Times, “It was
my dream to secure enough water for the whole village and their cattle.”
The story of Shyam Lal’s determination recently went viral in the whole of India, and prompted authorities in
Mahendragarh district to finally acknowledge his achievement. A member of the government recently visited Saja
Pahad and offered Lal a $156 prize for his contribution to the village.
