　　當我們在人生中遇到困難的時候，我們常常抱怨自己命運不濟，其實只要我們肯付出，我們的努力總會有回報的。

　　1．B　 空后的birth, marriage or death都是我們一生中要發生的事件，因此用events。C、D有一定的干擾性，competition競爭； performance表演， 表現；因此可以排除。2．C　 后文有hard work，因此這里講我們可以通過行動來改變一些事情。D有一定干擾性，goal意思是“目標”，因此可以排除。

　　3．B　 聯系下文if we’re walking on the path of positivity with great faith, we’ll be paid off我們知道，作者認為只要我們付出了，就能得到回報。注意這里的雙重否定。

　　4．A　 聯系空后的will pay for 20 hours我們知道，是雇主付給工人20小時的工錢。

　　5．C　 聯系前后文我們知道，作者用前面的例子來推出后面的道理，因此用similarly。

　　6．D　 聯系后文的it’s better to keep trying to make something good happen rather than sitting still or crying.我們知道，作者認為，當一切都不奏效的時候，也要盡力讓好的事情發生，而不是靜坐或者哭泣。work在這里是“起作用、奏效”的意思。

　　7．A　 聯系下文的in a dark cave, one is not

　　supposed to break the rock straight away我們知道，是“被困在”漆黑的山洞里面了。8．D　 聯系前文的a dark cave以及后面的and air come in我們知道，作者認為，這個人應該在巖石上弄一個小洞，讓陽光和空氣進來。

　　9．B　 從空前的Then efforts我們知道，在弄了一個小洞后，下一步的努力就是要粉碎掉巖石，因此用breaking。10．A　 本句中，no matter how引導了讓步狀語從句，顯然，前面表達的是“不管問有多么艱難，……”。

　　11．B　 從空后的and always struggling我們知道，一個人成功的秘密在于不放棄，一直奮斗。

　　12．D　 聯系空前的not in being the loser我們可以知道，此空和loser形成對比，故選D。

　　(二)

　　“不去冒險，就不會有損失。”這是平庸者的借口，這是無為者的巧言。還是這句話說得好：烏龜只有把脖于伸出來，才能得以前進。

　　13．B　

　　Dave Barry的父親讓他懂得了一個道理，這個道理仍然適用于(applies to)他現在的生活。

　　14．A　聯系此空后面的that they never venture beyond the familiar可知他們從不會去做自己不熟悉的事情， 這是因為他們害怕失敗(fail)。

　　15．B　 聯系空后的in the cocoon我們知道，很多人被限制在保護層內。

　　16．A　“和遺憾比起來，安全更重要”的思想把許多人限制(trapped)在舒服的(comfortable)保護層內。

　　17．D　 下文講述的內容是Col. Robert Johnson敢于破除迷信而去吃wolf peach的故事，所以此處應該選story。

　　18．C　根據下文中的to see Col. Johnson eat the “poisonous” peach可知他要吃(eat) a wolf peach。

　　19．A　根據下文可知人們對wolf peach的荒誕的說法信以為真，所以對Col. Robert Johnson的做法感到費解(puzzled)。

　　20．D　根據下文中提到的the “poisonous” peach說明人們認為這種東西是有毒的(poisonous)。

　　21．B　 survive the experience說明了他生存的艱難。

　　22．D　根據句中“Nearly 2,000 people”和下文的意思可知人們聚集(crowded)到廣場看他吃wolf peach。

　　23．A　 聯系全文以及結合生活常識可知，人們對wolf peach的說法是荒誕的，因此選A。

　　24．D　此處用烏龜作比喻，烏龜只有把脖子伸出來．才能得以前進(progress)。
