10．The decisions that we make shape us throughout our lives．No matter what decisions we make，good or bad，each one puts us on a new road in the future．Make a bad decision？No problem．Learn from the decision and make another decision to get on a different path．This is advice that I got from Tony Robbins in his book Awaken the Giant Within．This is a book that I recommend to anyone waiting to develop a fire within to make changes in their life．It helped me to understand how fear of making poor choices was hindering me from becoming the great man who I am today．Now I am not saying that I am a well-known person in any particular circle．But I am the king of my castle working hard and trying to make good decisions in regard to the paths that I have chosen．I am a great man in the eyes of my wife and my children．And that is all the recognition that I need in my lifetime．And I know that my past failures have been the building block that I continue to build my career and self-image in my community that I live in．
Ben Lerer，cofounder and CEO of the Thrillist Media Group，is a good example of this．In an article on the Fast Company website，Lerer talks about this very subject．He says，"I have to make some really tough decisions but finally，I think the best companies are those that can recognize when something isn't going right，and fix it，instead of just turning a blind eye because it's easier．"Great people make decisions．When a decision does not have the desired result，make a different decision．It does not get any simpler than that．

解答 答案：28-31 DABC．
28：D．细节理解题．根据第一段中的"Learn from the decision and make another decision to get on a different path．This is advice that I got from Tony Robbins in his book Awaken the Giant Within"可知，从错的决定中吸取经验可以做出新的决定，故D选项正确．
29：A．词义猜测题．根据上文中的"Make a bad decision？No problem…get  on a different path．"及画线词前后的内容可推知，该词的意思是"阻止，妨碍"，故A选项正确．
30：B．推理判断题．根据最后一段中的"I think the best companies are those  that can recognize when something isn't going right，and fix it"可知，最好的公司是那些能够认识到错误，并改正错误的公司，故B选项正确．

3．Researchers have developed a new kind of software using smartphones'GPS and imaging abilities that determine the exact location of distant objects as well as monitor the speed and direction of moving objects．The software could eventually allow smartphone-armed soldiers to target the location of their enemies．On the home front，the software could be used by everyone，including golfers judging distance to the green and biologists documenting the location of a rare animal without disturbing it．
"The great advantage of a smartphone is that it provides so many tools in a single，readily available，relatively inexpensive package，"said Wang Qia，a doctoral student who led the development of the software．"For example，on the battlefield，a soldier needs a rangefinder，compass，GPS and other tools to get information before calling in an air strike．With our software，the soldier can have all those instruments in one device that can be purchased off the shelf．When that soldier returns from war，she can use the same software to protect her family by clocking a speeder near her children's school and catching the criminal on video．"
    Wang and his colleagues developed their software to locate and track：
    Targets of known size-When the size of a target is known．a single image is enough to pinpoint the target's location．
    Targets of unknown size-If the exact size of a target is unknown，the software uses two images to triangulate the location of the target．
    Moving targets-By taking a short video of a moving target，the smartphone software can calculate how fast the target is moving and in what direction it is going．
"Currently，our software is limited by the physical abilities of smartphone hardware，but the devices are improving rapidly，"Wang said．"We expect that improvements in GPS accuracy，battery life and camera resolution will allow our software to make even more accurate observations．"

D．help biologists protect rare animal

      After I was sure the girls had passed by，I ran to the front door and knocked at it loudly．
"It's Billy!Let me in!"
      The voice behind me to see if anyone else was coming down the street，I said，"Mom!I'm sorry．I'm still your son．Let me in!"

Are you new to experiencing relationships？Well，let me give you advice on having a healthy and possibly long-term relationship．
（21）B Do not hide things from them，do not lie．Don't be afraid to say things that aren't very flattering about yourself．Getting them to trust you is the most important element in any relationship．If there's no trust，there's nothing there．So please be honest and they'll learn to open up to you．

Make sure you have a good sense of humor with them．Laughter is the key to happiness．Laugh a lot with them，joke with them．Laughter may seem silly，but it's the secret to a lot in life．It will keep the sparks alive．（24）D
Make sure the communication is good．This goes along with trust，but always communicate how you feel，even if it's something that upsets you．Instead of screaming，talk to them．（25）G It's important to communicate this to them，not keep it bottled up．
