When something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, it’s so-and-so’s fault.” or “I know I’m late, but it’s not my fault; the car broke down.” It is probably not your fault, 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 focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.
Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility 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 don’t rely on the person. You should accept that the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague 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 and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stop on for success.
1.The underlined word “remedy” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. avoid B. improve
C. accept D. consider
2.According to the passage, winners ________.
A. have responsible and able colleagues
B. meet with fewer difficulties in their lives
C. deal with problems rather than blame others
D. blame themselves rather that others
3.When your colleague brings about a problem, you should ________.
A. find a better way to handle the problem
B. blame him for his lack of responsibility
C. tell him to find the cause of the problem
D. ask a more able colleague for help
4.When problems occur, winners take them as ________.
A. excuses for their failures
B. barriers to greater power
C. chances for self-development
D. challenges to their colleagues

In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five fays off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured (使…放心)me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the kindness I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.
After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.” I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.

A. He helped the girl find a ride.

3.The reason why the author offered a lift to the elderly man was that .
A. she realized he was Gordon
B. she had known him for decades
C. she was going to the nearby town
D. she wanted to repay the kindness she once got
4.What does the author want to tell the readers through the story?

At a supermarket,two women arc shopping.One is a stay-at-home housewife who loves to create delicious masterpieces.The other is a supervisor at an advertising agency.The two ladies stop in the frozen foods section."I'm so tired,"sighs the professional woman."I don't know what to do about supper."Her friend suggests,"What about a microwave dinner?"The weary professional sighs,"I don't feel like cooking tonight."
It is true that Americans have cakes for breakfast,sandwiches for lunch and instant dinners.Most Americans enjoy the convenience of prepackaged meals that can be served in 10 minutes or less.However,if you think American cooking means throwing the packaged contents into the microwave,think again.Many Americans recognize the value of cooking skills,admitting that there's nothing better than a good home-cooked meal.
For those who need guidance in their cooking,recipes are lifesavers.Recipes list all the ingredients for a dish,the amount of each to use,and a description of how to put them together.Most good cooks have a shelf full of cookbooks ranging from locally published recipe collections to national bestsellers.Magazines devoted to home management,are full of tasty selections.Friends often increase their recipe collection by passing around their favorites cards.
For experienced cooks,recipes are merely references.They often make adjustments,depending on the people they need to serve,the available ingredients and their personal taste.Some cooks prefer instead to depend on their feelings to cook the right flavors.
Of course,as a "land of immigrants,"America has imported all varieties of cooking.Most good cooks in America are "fluent" in several cooking "dialects": Mexican,Italian,Chinese and traditional American style,just to name a few. But whatever the dialect,cooking is a language everyone understands.
1.The conversation in Paragraph 1 aims .
A. to criticize the lazy supervisor
B. to lead to the topic of the text
C. to stress the importance of dinner
D. to compare two women's hobbies
