Question

【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中的两项为多途选项。

There is an old Spanish saying which states, "Tomorrow is often the busiest day of the week." How many times have we put off our dreams until tomorrow? 【1】 We have to go for them now!

·Tomorrow is not promised.

Nobody likes to talk about death, but everybody is going to die at one point. None of us know the day or the hour. 【2】 Don't go to your tomb with unrealized dreams. Make the decision to go after every dream, big or small right now.

·【3】

One of the biggest dream killers is fear. Many people could have achieved amazing things if only they weren't afraid. Just think about all the things you've wanted to do, but allowed fear to convince you that you weren't capable, or good enough. Fear is not real. It is a product of thoughts you create. Choose not to let fear stop you from achieving your dreams.

·Take action to realize your dream.

You can dream about writing a great play but it's never going to happen unless you actually put pen to paper. You can dream about finding a cure for cancer, but it will never happen unless you actually become equipped with the necessary tools to find that cure. 【4】

·Possibilities are waiting on you.

There are so many amazing opportunities and people waiting on you. How do you get to them? Simple! Follow your dream. 【1】 You'll never see those doors if you sit around waiting on a dream to happen, instead of actually working to make it happen.

A. Don't let fear win.

B. In other words, dreams don't work unless you do.

C. Our dreams should not, and cannot wait.

D. Therefore, today is all we have.

E. You'll be much happier if you go for it.

F. You were born into the world with a unique gift, which nobody can copy.

G. Doors that you couldn't imagine open up when you go after what you want.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】C

【2】D

【3】A

【4】B

【5】G

【解析】

试题分析：作者在文章中告诉我们要抓住机会实现自己的梦想，不要等到明天，因为未来有很多不明确的事情会发生。

【1】C 根据横线前一句How many times have we put off our dreams until tomorrow?多少次我们把梦想推迟到明天？再根据横线后一句We have to go for them now!我们现在就要为梦想而努力。也就是说我们的梦想不能在等待了，要立刻采取行动。故C正确。

【2】D 根据本段前两句Nobody likes to talk about death, but everybody is going to die at one point. None of us know the day or the hour.可知所有人都会死亡，没有人知道我们什么时候会去世。可能就是明天，所以我们能抓住的就是现在，就是眼前。所以D项“Therefore, today is all we have.”符合上下文。

【3】A 根据本段最后一句Choose not to let fear stop you from achieving your dreams.选择不要让恐惧阻止你实现梦想。也就是说我们不要害怕取得成就，要努力实现个人梦想。故A项“Don't let fear win.”即为本段中心思想。

【4】B 本段标题Take action to realize your dream.告诉我们要采取行动才会实现自己的梦想。如果你不做，梦想也就不会自己过来。故B项说法正确。

【5】G 根据本段第二、三句How do you get to them? Simple! Follow your dream.只要我们追随梦想，就会抓住机会。再根据横线后一句You'll never see those doors if you sit around waiting on a dream to happen如果你只是坐在那里等待机会，你将看不到这些门。故G项“Doors that you couldn't imagine open up when you go after what you want.”符合上下文串联。
