The Winner’s Guide to Success
Do you know what makes people successful? To find out the answers, an American reporter recently visited some of the most successful people around the world. 【1】 .
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. 【2】 .
Write a plan.
It’s very difficult to try to get what you want without a good plan. It’s just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away. 【3】 . Without this “map”, you may waste your time, money and also your energy; while with the “map”, you will enjoy the “trip” and get what you want in the shortest possible time.
【4】 .
Nothing great is easy to get. So 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.
Never give up.
【5】 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. A good plan is like a map to you.
B. It seems to us that everyone knows this, but it is easier said than done.
C. Some people achieve success much later in life because they don’t work hard earlier.
D. You're saying, "You have more control over my life than I do."
E. Someone else’s opinions of you don’t have to become your reality.
F. Be willing to pay the price.
G. Here are some keys to success that they give.
【答案】
【1】G
【2】D
【3】A
【4】F
【5】B
【解析】
试题分析:每个人都想成功,但究竟怎么样才可以成功呢?作者在文章中给出了成功人士提出的成功四要素。
【1】G 本句属于连接上下文的承上启下句。文章接下来的四部分都是这些成功人物给出的关于如何取得成功的建议,所以G项“Here are some keys to success that they give.”符合上下文串联,把第一段和下面四部分联系在一起。
【2】D 根据横线前句“In fact, when you say someone or something outside of yourself is stopping you from making success, you're giving away your own power.”当你说外界的事物阻止你取得成功,你就是在放弃你自己的权力。也就是说你让其他事物影响你的内心了。故D项正确。
【3】A根据横线前句说明很多人都是在没有计划的情况下就开始的,那么就好像是在一个完全不熟悉的路上开车一样,所谓预则立,所以我们做任何事情,都要有一个详细的计划。故A项符合上下文。
【4】F 根据本段最后一句If you are not willing to pay the price, you won’t get anything valuable.如果你不愿意付出代价,你将无法获得任何有价值的东西。本段告诉我们要付出一定的代价,才能取得成功。故F项符合上下文串联。
【5】B根据本段最后一句Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success说明我们总是告诉自己不要放弃,但是这样的话,说比做容易,故B项符合上下文。
