20．The Winner's Guide to Success
Do you know what makes people successful？To find out the answers，an American scholar recently visited some of the most successful people around the world．（36）D
Be responsible for yourself
Sometimes you may want to blame others for your failure to get ahead．In fact，when you say someone or something outside of yourself is stopping you from making success，you're giving away your own power．（37）F
Write a plan
It is very difficult to try to get what you want without a good plan．It is just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away．（38）C Without this"map"，you may waste your time，money and also your energy； while with the"map"you'll enjoy the"trip"and get what you want in the shortest possible time．
Be willing to pay the price
（39）BSo you must be ready to work hard-even harder than you have ever done．If you are not willing to pay the price，you won't get anything valuable．
（40）A
It seems to us that everyone knows this．But it is easier said than done．When you are doing something，you must tell yourself again and again：Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success，but giving up means the death of hope．
A．Never give up．
B．Nothing is easy to get．
C．A good plan is like a map to you．
D．Here are some keys to success that they give．

18．My mother is a hard-working and kind woman．She is very busy from morning till night．As a teacher，she works hard．（36）B Both my brother and I love her dearly as she loves us．
My mother has been teaching math at a middle school in my hometown．She goes to work early in the morning and does not return home until late in the afternoon．（37）CShe treats them with patience and teaches them well．For her excellent quality and very good teaching results，she has been elected as a model teacher several times．
（38）E Every day，when she comes back home from work，she sets about doing housework，sweeping the living room and bedrooms or cleaning the furniture，and putting everything in good order．She seems to be busy all the time．As she has been very busy working every day，she looks older than her age．But she looks as cheerful and happy as ever．Mother never buys expensive dresses for herself，but she often buys some inexpensive but high quality clothes for us．（39）DShe just eats a plain meal outside when she is too busy to cook herself．She lives a busy yet simple life，without any complaints．
Often she says to us，"work while you work，and play while you play．That is the way to be happy and gay．If you do not work，you will become lazy and be of no use to society"．What a piece of good advice this is!（40）FThis advice of hers will always serve as a guide to my behavior．My mother is great indeed，and I always feel proud of her．

19．People tend to become more personal and hide less of themselves when using email．Some Britain researchers have found in a recent study that there are good reasons for this．
The team of researchers asked 83pairs of students，all strangers to each other，to solve a problem．They had to discuss this question：（56）F The pairs of students had to talk over the problem either face to face or by computers．Dr．Johnson said，"They told their partners four times as much about themselves when they talked over the Internet as when they talked face to face．When the computers were fitted with cameras so that students could see each other，this limited the personal side of the conversation．"
（57）C It was mainly about things such as where they went to school，or where they used to live．But some students discussed their love stories，and personal childhood experiences．Dr．Johnson believes that emailing encourages people to focus on themselves．（58）E"If you cannot see other person，it becomes easier to talk about yourself．This is because you are not thinking what the other person is thinking of you．So emailing has become the modern way of talking，"said Dr．Johnson．（59）B"In the 19th century people started to use the„telegraph'to communicate．Now the same kind of thing has happened and people ended up speaking more freely．"Dr．Johnson thinks that emailers need to know about these effects of emailing，especially when they start work in a company，"（60）G"
