You and your parents can stop worrying—Pasteur, Edison, Darwin and lots more were far from being geniuses in their teens.
History books【B1】______mention it, but the truth is that many of our greatest figures were【B2】______"beatniks" when they were teenagers. They were given to daydreaming, indecision, plain dullness, and they showed no【B3】______of being doctor, lawyer or Indian chief.
So, young men and women, if you suffer from the same【B4】______, don’t despair. The world was built by men and women whose parents worried that they would "never【B5】______to a hill of beans." You don’t hear too much about their early failure because parents prefer to cite more【B6】______examples.
If you take piano lessons and your attitude towards practicing is【B7】______by laziness, your parents might【B8】______complain and flaunt before you the famous picture of little Mozart in his ruffled nightshirt, playing the piano at midnight in the attic.【B9】______the point is, your parents would not show you a picture of a certain party who never showed a【B10】______of interest in music during his 【B11】______years. In fact he never showed【B12】______in any direction whatever. Finally put to studying law, he【B13】______passed his final exams. It was not until he was 22 that he suddenly became fired【B14】______a great passion for music, and his name was Peter Ilyitch Tschaikowsky.
In the sciences, there have been hundreds of geniuses who aimed straight at the【B15】______from earliest years, and hundreds who showed no【B16】______at all. There were the teenage Mayo brothers, who actually【B17】______their father in his crude country operating room.【B18】______, Harvey Cushing, one of the world’s greatest brain surgeons, might have become a professional ballplayer if his father hadn’t【B19】______that he give【B20】______a try.
【B18】
选项
A、In addition
B、What’s more
C、On the other hand
D、On the contrary
答案
C
解析
考查关联词。空格前一句话说的是梅奥兄弟很早就在手术室给父亲帮忙,说明有的名人很早就开始了自己赖以成名的事业;后一句说的是另一个医生的故事:要不是他父亲让他去学医的话,他本可能成为一名球员,因此前后是对照关系,正确答案选C项。
