When we think about the dreams we have, it is surprising to see how many people failed even if they could have succeeded. So today I’m going to tell you five ways to kill your dreams.

Believe in overnight success.

Everyone knows the story of a tech guy who built a mobile app and sold it for a lot of money. ___【1】__ If you investigate further, you will find that he is well educated and has been working on the project for 20 years. Therefore, your overnight success is always a result of what you’ve done in your life.

__【2】___

Constantly, people around you always have opinions on which path you should take. But whichever way you choose, there are other ways you have to pick as well. And one day you need to solve those problems yourself.

Decide to rest when success is guaranteed.

When your life is going great and everything is set—time to rest. Actually, when you’re growing towards a peak, you need to work even harder and find yourself another peak. If you were content with what you’ve accomplished, it would stop you from a greater success. __【3】__

Believe the fault is someone else’s.

I constantly see people saying, “I created this great product, but the market is so bad.” If you have dreams, it’s your responsibility to make them happen. Yes, the market may be bad. But if no one bought your product, surely there is something there that is your fault. __【4】__

Believe that the only things that matter are the dreams themselves.

Achieving a dream is a short moment, but your life is not. __【5】___ And the only way to really achieve all of your dreams is to fully enjoy every step of your journey.

A. When we face difficulties, believe in ourselves.

B. The overnight success inspires so many people.

C. The story may seem real, but I bet it’s incomplete.

D. Be responsible for your own dreams.

E. Life is never about the goals themselves.

F. There’s no time to settle down.

G. Believe someone else has the answers for you.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】C

【2】G

【3】F

【4】D

【5】E

【解析】

试题分析: 如果你想成功,就要避免下面5个方面的事情:1.梦想一夜之间就成功了; 2.不要相信别人会对你负责; 3. 认为成功有保证了就停下来休息；4.认为错误都是别人的；5. 认为只有梦想最重要。

【1】C考查对上下文语境的理解。空前一句的意思是：大家都知道一个精通科技的家伙的故事，创造了一个移动应用程序和卖掉很多钱。空后一句的意思是：如果你进一步调查，你会发现他受过良好教育和在该项目上工作了 20 年。因此，一夜成功始终是你一辈子做的事情的结果。 所以这里选C（故事可能看起来是真的，但我敢打赌，这是不完整。）与上下文一致。

【2】G考查对段落的理解。本段的意思是：你周围的人总是给你建议。但不管你选择什么，你都需要自己解决这些问题。所以这里选G（相信别人会对你负责。）符合段意。

【3】F考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是： 当你的生活一一帆风顺的时候就停下来休息了。实际上，你需要更加努力地工作 才能取得更大的成功。所以这里选F（没有时间去享受。）与上下文一致。

【4】D考查对上下文语境的理解。空前一句的意思是：总是认为自己做得好，错误在别人，实现梦想是你的责任，所以这里选D（对自己的梦想负责。）符合本段的意思。

【5】E考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是：实现一个梦想是短短的一瞬，但你的生活不是。空后的意思是：真正实现你梦想的唯一方法是充分享受你人生旅程的每一步。所以这里选E（生活永远不会只是目标本身。）与上下文一致。
