Question

           B 

     (2015 •北京門頭溝一模)

Last week,my granddaughter started kindergarten (幼兒園) ，and certainly I wished her success. I was saying something that was not true. What I actually wish for her is failure. I believe in the importance of failure.

Success is boring. Success is proving that you can do something that you already know you can do,or do something correctly the first time,which can often be a problem for the future. First-time success is usually a fluke (饒幸) .First-time failure,in fact,is the natural order of things.

Failure means how we learn. I have been told of an African phrase (短語) describing a good cook as “she who has broken many bowls^. If youVe spent enough time in the kitchen and have broken a lot of bowls,probably you know a lot about cooking. I once had a dinner with a group of cooks,and they spent time comparing knife wounds and burn scars. They knew how much their failures gave them.

My younger daughter is a dancer. She spent three years getting ready for an act. She did it successfully for years. There was no reason for her to change the act — but she did anyway. She said she was no longer learning anything new and she was bored; and if she was bored,she couldn’t play well. So she changed the act. She risked failure in order to feed her heart.

My granddaughter is a perfectionist. But I will also,I hope,remind her of what she learned,and how she can do whatever it is better next time. I probably won’t tell her that failure is a good thing,because that's not a lesson she can learn when she is five. I hope I can tell her,though,that it^?s not the end of the world. Indeed,with luck,it is the beginning.

6. B解析：細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。答案在前兩個(gè)中進(jìn)行選擇。作者否認(rèn)了前者，即成功。接著又重復(fù)了自己的觀點(diǎn):我更看重的是她在做事中的失敗。

7. D解析:段意判斷題。第一句話即是該段段意：失敗見證了我們做事的過程。

8. C解析:事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。第四段結(jié)尾處給出了理由：feed her heart滿足自己的心。

9. C解析：目的判斷題。在文中最后一段作者提出了自己對失敗的看法:失敗不是終點(diǎn)，而是通向更加美好未來的起點(diǎn)。
