题文

How can we improve our life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They’ll say, “this is my destiny (命运). I cannot change it.” Certainly not! You don’t have to suffer too much. Your destiny depends on yourself, not on any other factors. I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows. Huh! Is this what she calls “doing her best”? She believes she has tried her best. But in fact she hasn’t. Remember that you get what you pay. You just don’t sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don’t expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don’t just regard it as a little failure, but use it as feedback (反馈). Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It’s not enough to think positively (积极地), you also have to act positively. If someone’s life is in the trouble, do you just hope that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don’t just stand (or sit) there, do something to improve your life. 小题1:The writer’s attitude towards destiny is that ________.

答案

小题1:A 小题2:D 小题3:C 小题4:D 小题5:B

试题分析：这篇短文中作者主要告诉我们，生活中想要成功，想要改善自己的生活，我们不能只是希望它能最好，还要做到最好。遇到麻烦的时候，我们不能安静的等待，而是要采取行动，解决问题。只要我们自己肯努力，我们的命运是可以改变的。 小题1:细节理解题。根据短文第一、二段中Certainly not! You don’t have to suffer too much. Your destiny depends on yourself, not on any other factors.可知，对于一些人觉得命运不可改变的说法，作者给出了自己的回答，命运可以改变，这一切都要靠你自己。故选A。 小题2:细节理解题。根据短文第四段中If something goes wrong, don’t just regard it as a little failure, but use it as feedback (反馈). Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem可知，如果生活中出现了问题，不要把它当做一次小小的失败，而是要用它当反馈，从你的教训中学习，充分利用情势，做些什么来解决问题。故选D。 小题3:词义猜测题。根据这个短语所在的句子If someone’s life is in the trouble, do you just hope that things will turn out fine可知，如果一个人的生活有了麻烦，你是不是只希望事情自己就会变好？根据这句话的意思可知，turn out 的意思是变得。故选C。 小题4:推理判断题。根据短文中It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best.可知，只是希望最美好的事情是不够的，你还需要做到最好，故A是不对的；根据It’s not enough to think positively (积极地), you also have to act positively可知，想要成功，我们不仅要积极思考，还要积极行动，故B是不对的；根据短文第三段的例子可知，She believes she has tried her best. But in fact she hasn’t.，作者觉得这位女士并没有做到最好，故C是不对的；根据文意可知，如果我们自己努力，积极，对生活去做点什么的话，也许运气就会得到改变。故选D。 小题5:主旨大意题。这篇短文中作者主要告诉我们，生活中想要成功，想要改善自己的生活，我们不能只是希望它能最好，还要做到最好。遇到麻烦的时候，我们不能安静的等待，而是要采取行动，解决问题。只要我们自己肯努力，我们的命运是可以改变的。根据这个大意，我们可知B选项Improve your life改变你的生活，这个题目更适合。故选B。
