Stop wasting your time thinking of reasons for your failures and shortcomings. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.

The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the most awesome machine ever created: the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You were born a winner. You were born rich. You can be a success if only you make the right choice.

You cannot be successful without first developing your self-esteem (自信心). Your level of self-esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-esteem are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are always victims. They are leaves tossed (摇摆) by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather.

You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe you are responsible for everything that happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident and chance. Successful people realize that they are responsible.

Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify the cause, we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we choose to think and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success is dependent upon our level of confidence.

If you associate with positive-thinking people, you are definitely going to achieve success. On the contrary, the opposite happens. We are responsible for finding, planting, and nurturing (培育) the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks (挫折).

In short, in all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it. You are on the road to success.

1.People with low self-esteem are compared to leaves because they ________.

A. can’t exercise control over themselves

B. are easily affected by windy weather

C. don’t have the power to face their fate

D. are ready to change their minds

2.Losers would think that ________.

A. success is the result of hard work

B. working hard will lead to success

C. they fail only because of bad luck

D. they don’t make efforts to succeed

3.It can be inferred from the fifth paragraph that ________.

A. setting our expectations is essential before taking action

B. knowing cause and effect is the key to future success

C. thoughts and beliefs are the result of creative mind

D. whether we will succeed depends on our attitudes

4.The last paragraph serves as ________.

A. the proof of the author’s points

B. the conclusion of the argument

C. an introduction to another topic

D. a comparison between two views

科目:高中英语 来源:2017届山东省高三上学期开学考试英语试卷(解析版) 题型:阅读理解

Walt had a strong commercial sense of what would appeal to the public. Disneyland, Walt Disney World, and finally the other Disney theme parks around the world all came about because Walt Disney insisted that he could build an amusement park that was so much bigger and better than other amusement parks that it shouldn’t even be called an amusement park.

In 1940 he disclosed a plan to show Disney characters in their fantasy surroundings at a park across the street from the Disney studio in Burbank.

The idea of an amusement park grew in Walt’s mind as he traveled through the US and Europe and visited attractions of all kinds. Walt was sure that an amusement park would be successful in the United States if it offered a “good show” that families could enjoy together, was clean, and had friendly employees.

In 1948 he shared his concept with trusted friends, a modest amusement park with a central village including a town hall, a small park, railroad station movie theater, and small stores. Outlying areas would include a carnival (联欢) area and a western village. Soon he added spaceship and submarine rides, a steamboat, and exhibit halls.

Four years later, he decided on “Disneyland” for the name and formed a company to develop the park, Disneyland, Inc.

In 1953 he got Stanford Research Institute to examine the economic future of Disneyland and to find the perfect location.

They broke ground in July, 1954, and one year later, Disneyland opened. Within 7 weeks, a million visitors had visited Disneyland, making it one of the biggest tourist attractions in the US.

Walt combined his talent and his sense of what the public would want with lots of hard work. In 1960, with a mixture of huge successes and failures, Disney had created something that was successful beyond Walt’s own dreams.

1.What did Walt Disney want to show in his plan?

A. His commercial sense.

B. Disney studio.

C. Disney characters.

D. Fantasy surroundings.

2.What would a successful amusement park be like in Walt’s opinion?

A. Its service was free.

B. It could show fantastic programs.

C. It included attractions of all kinds.

D. It could make families satisfied.

3.Which of the following is the correct order about Disneyland?

a. It opened.

b. The perfect location was found.

c. They broke ground.

d. It proved to be a great success.

e. Its name was decided.

f. Walt shared its outline with his friends.

A. f,e,b,c,a,dB. e,b,c,a,d,f

C. f,e,c,b,a,dD. a,e,b,c,f,d

根据短文内容,从选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

No personal success, achievement, or goal, can be realized without self-discipline. __1. It is the ability to control one’s impulses, emotions, desires and behavior. To possess it is to be able to make the decisions, take the actions, and carry out your plan regardless of the obstacles, discomfort, or difficulties, that may come your way.

5. Michael Jordan has always maintained that his greatness as a basketball player came as much from his willingness to work hard at his craft, as it did his talent.
