Conventional wisdom says it’s the students who get straight A’s blow the roof of the SAT

(Scholastic Aptitude Test) and go to Ivy League colleges. Or maybe it’s the children born into wealthy families with brilliant connections. Neither is typical, says Thomas J. Stanley, who surveyed 1300 millionaires for his new book, The Millionaire Mind. The average millionaire made B’s and C’s in college, Stanley says. Their average SAT score was 1190—not good enough to get into many top-notch schools. In fact, most millionaires were told they were not intellectually gifted, not smart enough to succeed. “I find no correlation between SAT scores, grade point averages and economic achievement. None.” said Stanley. “Admittedly, there are some very bright people in the data, but not many.” Instead of relying on natural genius, millionaires choose careers that match their abilities, Stanley said. They may not have great analytic intelligence, but they are creative and practical. They focus on a goal, take calculated risks and then work harder than most people. It’s a lesson Stanley has taken to heart. The author, who lives in Atlanta, has gotten rich himself by writing about the rich. So he took time off to write what he calls “the home-run book.” The Millionaire Next Door, written with researcher William D. Danko of Albany, N.Y., was published in 1996. It has been on The New York Times Best Sellers list for more than 150 weeks. In The Millionaire Mind, Stanley studied even richer millionaires — the top 1% of households. These people had an average net worth of $9.2 million and earned $749,000 a year. And almost none of them credit their success to being smart. They say the keys to success are being honest and disciplined, getting along with people, having a supportive spouse and working hard. “Somehow they figured out what they were good at,” Stanley said. “They all said, I’ll be the best at this. This is what I really, really love to do.” One of his case studies is Donald Sonner, the 64-year-old head of Southern Bloomer Manufacturing Co. in Bristol, Tenn. Sonner’s only education was a single year of high school, but he was a millionaire by the time he was 24. How？ His company takes scrap cloth and makes underwear for prisons and gun-cleaning patches. He got rich by working hard and capitalizing on an idea no one else had, Stanley said.

11. Which of the following is NOT true about Thomas J. Stanley？

A)He is the writer of The Millionaire Mind.

B)He himself became rich by writing about the rich.

C)He has found that one’s school grades and his economic achievement are closely related.

D)One of his books, The Millionaire Next Door, has been on the list of Best Sellers.

12. We can learn from the passage that .

A)one who wants to be a millionaire must have high scores in college.

B)natural intelligence is not so important a factor on deciding whether or not a person is able to become a millionaire.

C)a child born into a rich family is likely to be a millionaire in the future.

D)one can become rich by taking scrap cloth and making underwear for prisons.

13. What are the keys to success according to the passage？

A)honest and hardworking.

B)smart and creative

C)intelligent and well-educated D)self-disciplined and risk-taking

14. What kinds of careers do millionaires choose？

A)They choose the ones that are well-paid.

B)They choose the ones that they’re capable of doing.

C)They choose careers according to their natural genius.

D)They choose the ones that supply them with room for their individualism.

15. In the sentence “It’s a lesson Stanley has taken to heart”, “It” refers to .

A)He himself has gotten rich by writing about the rich.

B)Millionaires may not have great analytic intelligence.

C)Books about millionaires will be very popular with readers.

D)What he has found about millionaires in his survey.

Many doctors are now trained in techniques to lessen tension and stress. Here health pro

fessionals reveal their favorite methods.

Comfort with food. When diet expert Judith Wurtman is stressed out, she does what a lot of people do this time of year: she reaches for food .But in her case, it’s a healthy rice cake or two. “My research suggests that carbohydrates (碳水化合物) raise levels of a brain chemical, which has a calming effect on the entire body,” says the MIT research scientist. “So signs of stress — such as anger, tension, and inability to focus — are eased.”

Run from your problems. Dr. Kenneth H. Cooper, who popularized aerobics (有氧运动) through his1968 book by that name, handles his own stress with a daily after-work run. He knows that physical activity reduces anxiety and depression. “Aerobic exercise is the best way to dissipate stress,”says Cooper.

Look to the light side. On his way to the hospital where his father was to have surgery Joel Goodman shared a hotel bus with anxious relatives of several patients. The driver began telling his stressed-out passengers a few jokes. “Then he did some magic tricks that had my mother and me laughing.” Goodman says. “In that five-minute ride he taught us that humor can lessen our stress.”

The surgery was successful, and Goodman was so moved by his experience that he researched laughter’s power. “A good laugh relaxes muscles, reduces blood pressure, restrains stress-related hormones and enhances the immune system (免疫系统),” he says.

Go green. Coffee, loaded with hidden sources of caffeine, stimulates (刺激) the nervous system and can make you feel stressed more easily. That’s why Arizona Doctor Andrew Weil, author of best seller Spontaneous Healing, does not take caffeine. “When I want gentle energy, I drink green tea. It contains a caffeine-like element”, Weil says. It also contains compounds that, some studies suggest, have anti-cancer effects.

16. The following are ways to free you from stress EXCEPT__________.

A. looking at things in a more relaxed way

B. getting a lot of sleep during the day

C. eating some food with carbohydrates

D. doing some aerobic exercise

17. Eating or drinking the following can be helpful in freeing you from stress EXCEPT________.

A. drink green tea B. eat some bread

C. eat some rice cake D. drink a lot of coffee

18. A good laugh is very helpful EXCEPT to__________.

A. reduce blood pressure B. restrain stress-related hormones

C. enhance the immune system D. take a holiday

19. What is the meaning of the word “dissipate” in the part “Rum from your problems”？
