How do successful people think? What drives them? Interviews and investigations indicate that there are several keys to success that successful people share.
First of all, successful people never blame someone or something outside of themselves for their failure to go ahead. They realize that their future lies in their own hands. They understand that they cannot control things in life, such as nature, the past and other people, But in the meantime, they are well aware that they can control their own thoughts and actions. They take responsibility for their life and regard this as one of the most empowering（给人以力量的）things they can do. Perhaps what often separates successful people from others is that they live their life “on purpose”——they are doing what they believe they are put here to do. In their opinions, having a purpose in their life is the most important element that enables them to become fully functioning people. They hold that when they live their life on purpose, their main concern is to do the job right. They love what they do——and it shows. People want to do business with them because of their commitment（投入献身）. To live their life on purpose, successful people find a cause they believe in and create a business around it. Besides, they never easily give up. Once they have set up goals in their life, they're willing to do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Top achievers always bear it in mind that they don't have forever.
Rather than see it negative or depressing, they use the knowledge to spur themselves on and go after what they want energetically and passionately.
(1) Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?
[ ]
A．How do people live their life on purpose?
B．How can people be successful?
C．How do people make plans?
D．How do people do business?

(3) By living their life “on purpose”, successful people can__________.
[ ]
A．do a lot of work

C．do business with many people
D．do all of the above mentioned
(4) The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to ______.

B．the job that successful people do
C．the undertaking with which successful people do their jobs
D．the business that successful people do with other people

It may be a discussion of the way to 2 in good health, or 3 about how to behave and conduct oneself in society.
