When something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, it’s so-and-so’s mistake.” or “I know I’m late, but it’s not my mistake; the bus was late.” It is probably not your mistake, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop paying attention to whom to blame and start paying attention to how to improve the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.
Winners are great at overcoming(克服) problems. For example, if you were late because the bus was late, maybe you need to leave home early. Or, you might call a taxi or call friends for help when in need. For another example, if your workmate causes you problems on the job for short of responsibility(责任心) or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or leave this person with some simple jobs. You should accept that the person is not reliable(可靠的) and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your workmate fails to do his job well.
This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges(挑战) and chances to develop their own talents. So, stop paying attention to “whose mistake it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success.
1.According to the passage, winners .
A. have responsible and able workmates
B. meet with fewer difficulties in their lives
C. blame themselves rather than others
D. deal with problems rather than blame others
2.When your workmate brings about a problem, you should .
A. blame him for his lack of responsibility
B. find a better way to overcome the problem
C. tell him to find the cause of the problem
D. ask a more able workmate for help
3.When problems happen, winners take them as .
A. excuses for their mistakes
B. difficulties to greater power
C. chances for self-development
D. challenges to their workmates
4.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. A Winner’s Secret B. A Winner’s Problem
C. A Winner’s ChanceD. A Winner’s Achievement

Who wants to carry a bulky bag to school? No children. Nobody wants one shoulder to be lower than the other, and paining(疼痛)too. In India, most of us would look at the reduction(减少)of textbooks as a way out. But in a country like America, there are always more choices. A company called goReader has created a "school bag" which is the size of a laptop computer(笔记本电脑), weighing about 2.5 kg. The goReader has a color screen and can "hold" all the textbooks that a student may need, says a report in 'The Asian Age' newspaper.
The company plans to work closely with the publishers(出版商) of textbooks so that these books can be supplied on the Internet. All the students will have to do is to download(下载) their textbooks. Making notes and marking important parts of a lesson can be done just as lots of students have done on their textbooks before.
At present, the plan is being tested out in a university. Richard Katzmann, the owner of the company is having his creation tested at Chicago's DePaul University, where he studied. Does that mean it is goodbye to the new paper, and the smell of the black ink?
1.What does the underlined word “bulky” in the first line mean?
A. lightB. smallC. big and heavyD. old
2.What would Indians do to solve(解决)the problem?
A. They would reduce the textbooks.
B. They would tell the parents to help students.
C. They would tell the teachers to help students.
D. They would take students to school by bus.
3.The writer may think that Americans have a ________ way to solve the problem.
A. more stupidB. worseC. betterD. quicker
