Take Calculated (预料到的) Risks

But one day, you can't stand your job any more, so you leave it even though you haven't really had a plan. This is such a big risk that it will probably make you【6】want to take a risk again. So just start with a small risk.
Don't Be Afraid of Failure

【解析】
我们都想过我们梦想的生活,但有时候一些消极的想法会阻止我们前进。这篇短文中作者给我们提出了一些建议,告诉我们如何对待这些消极想法,让我们的生活继续前行,从而实现我们的梦想。
【1】
句意:希望下面的建议能帮助你忽略这些想法,继续前行。
上句话“However, at times, some negative (消极的) ideas may stop us.”提到,一些消极的想法会阻止我们前进,这句话是告诉我们如何忽略那些想法,该空指代的是ideas。故答案为ideas。
【2】
句意:做正确的事情可以帮助我们获得最大的幸福。
根据上句话“One thing we can control is doing what we can”可知,这个建议是让我做我们能做到的事情,使用的是第一人称we来叙述的,因此这里表示“可以帮助我们”,在句中作宾语,应用宾格形式。故答案为us。
【3】
句意:同时,它可以让我们朝着正确的方向前进。
根据上文“Doing the right things can help ______ to achieve the most happiness. Also, it can make us move on in the ______ direction.”可知,这两句话介绍的是做正确的事情的好处。结合常识,我们做正确的事情,就能使我们朝着正确的方向前进,故答案为right。
【4】
句意:成功不是没有风险的。
根据这一段的标题“Take Calculated (预料到的) Risks”以及下文“We all have to take risks in life”可知,我们要接受风险。因此这句话是表示“没有风险成功就不会到来”,这里考查without,是一个介词,意为“没有”,符合语境。故答案为without。
【5】
句意:例如,你正在做一份你讨厌的工作,你梦想着放弃它,开始自己的事业。
根据句意“you are working at a job that you hate, and you are dreaming of giving it up”,你讨厌你的工作,想要放弃它,根据常理,下面应该是开创自己的事业。start开始,是一个动词,符合语境。该空与前面的giving it up并列,也应用动名词形式。故答案为starting。
【6】
句意:这是一个很大的风险,可能会让你永远不想再冒险。
根据上文“But one day, you can't stand your job any more, so you leave it even though you haven't really had a plan.”可知,在没有计划之前,就放弃了你的工作,这种冒险是不可取的,其结果是会让你永远不想再冒险。never“永远不,从不”,是否定副词,符合语境。故答案为never。
【7】
句意:然而,他失败了很多次。
这一段的标题是“Don't Be Afraid of Failure”“不要害怕失败”,文章以爱迪生为例,告诉我们即使伟大的人也经历了很多失败。根据句子结构可知,该空是句子的谓语动词,考查fail,且应用一般过去时态,这里填过去式。故答案为failed。
【8】
句意:但这些失败让他离成功又近了一步。
句子But表示转折,因此这里是想要告诉我们,失败并不是没有任何意义的,它是我们走向成功的里程碑。这里考查close to…“离……近”,且根据语境,失败的经历让我们离成功更近了,应用比较级形式。故答案为closer。
