He lost his arms in an accident that caused the death of his father. Then his   36   became his shadow, never leaving him alone for years.   37   writing with his toes, he was completely unable to do anything in his life.

       As the two brothers grew up together, they had their   38   of problems and they would often quarrel. Then one day, his younger brother decided to   39   separate from him, living his own life as many   40   people do. So he was heart-broken and didn’t know what to do.

       A   41   misfortune happened to a girl, too. One night she tried to   42   meals for her sick mother, only to overturn the kerosene light on the stove, resulting in a fire which took her   43   away.

       Though her elder sister in another city   44   her willingness to take care of her, she was  45   to learn to be completely independent. At school, she   46   studied hard.

       One day, the boy and the girl were both invited to   47   on a television interview program and asked to   48   something on a piece of paper with their toes. The boy wrote; My younger brother’s arms are my arms;   49   the girl wrote: Broken wings, flying heart.

       They had both   50   the same pain, but their different attitudes determined the nature of their lives. It is true that life is unpredictable(难以预料). Disasters can strike at   51   time.

    Just as the stock(股票)market rises and falls in response to what people are wilting to put their money behind,we have inside ourselves an inner economy that rises and falls in response to our beliefs about what is possible.Sometimes the degree to which we are willing to challenge our belief systems determines the success of our inner economy For example,imagine that your family of origin had a belief that musical talent was not something they possessed.As a member of that group,you would likely hold that sanle belief about yourself.As a result,even if you had a great desire to create music,you might be hesitant to really get behind yourself, fearing that your in Vestment(投资)would not pay off.Even if you had the courage to follow your passion your inner belief that you are not born talented would probably be a major obstacle to investing your energy in your dream.

On the other hand.If you found away to release that negative belief, a great flood of energy would pour forth,greatly increasing the like hood of your success.How much energy we are wilting to invest in the various ideas,dreams,and visions we carry within is like the mulled people are,or are not,willing to invest in the various products available for wade on the stock market. And in both cases,belief plays a key role in determining how willing we are to get behind something.One way to open up the possibility for greater success in our inner economies is to understand that belief is not the reliable guide we sometimes think.There are other more reliable things of success that we can put our faith in,such as passion,feeling,and sense.Some of the most successful investors in the stock market are the ones that go against the grain.trusting their sense over the common opinion held by common people about what will work.

     In the same way, we can learn to trust our heart’s desires and one sense to guide us.questioning any beliefs that stand in the way of our ability to fully invest in ourselves.As we take out energy from limiting ideas about what is possible,we free up the resources that have the power to make our inner economy prosper.

 

67.We can safely conclude from the first paragraph that      

  A.our belief is not reliable                            B.belief is not so important in our success

  C.beliefs an obstacle to our Success             D.our belief determines our Success in some way

  A.write poems                                            B.hate literature

  C.enter the field of literature                         D.teach literature

69.We Call put our faith in the following things of success except
