题目列表(包括答案和解析)

It’s never easy to admit you are in the wrong. Being human, we all need to know the art of    31  . Look back with honesty and think how often you’ve judged   32 , said unkind things, pushed yourself ahead at the   33  of a friend. Then count the occasions   34  you indicated clearly and truly that you were   35 . A bit frightening, isn’t it? Frightening because some deep   36  in us knows that when even a small wrong has been   37 , some mysterious moral feeling is disturbed; and it stays out of balance until fault is acknowledged and     38  is expressed.

I remember a doctor friend, the late Clarence Lieb, telling me about a man who came to him with a variety of   39 : headaches, insomnia and stomach trouble. No   40  cause could be found. Finally my friend said to the man, “  41  you tell me what’s worrying you, I can’t help you.” After some   42 , the man confessed that, as executor of his father’s will, he had been   43  his brother, who lived abroad, of his inheritance (继承权). Then and there the wise old doctor made the man write to his brother   44  forgiveness and enclosing a cheque as the first step in restoring their good   45 . He then went with him to mail box in the corridor. As the letter disappeared, the man   46  crying. “Thank you,” He said, “I think I’m   47 .” And he was. A heartfelt apology can not only heal a damaged relationship but also make it   48 . If you can think of someone who   49  an apology from you, someone you have wronged, or just neglected, do something about it   50 .

Do you have a dream, something you always see yourself doing? Perhaps you see yourself as a lawyer, businessman, or even a scientist. Whatever it is, don’t let it die.
A dream is a wonderful thing. It can give you hope for your future and encourage you to try when all odds are against you.
However, there are dream killers that want to kill your dream. They may tell you that it is impossible for you, that you are not smart enough or that it’s never been done before. However, many times the biggest dream killer is yourself.
Don’t let fear, doubt or lack of finances prevent you from fulfilling(实现) your dream. Talk back to these killers, “I can and fulfill my dream.” You may have to do this every day. The more often you talk to your heart that you can do it, the more safely your dream will be held within you.
It is very important to take steps towards fulfilling your dream. For me, in order to fulfill my dream of one-day owning my own magazine, I needed to go back to school and finish my college degree. For you, it may be something different. You know deep inside what the voice of your dream calls for. Don’t be afraid and just do it. Try not to let too much time go by. Time is another one of those dream killers.
Think about the words of a song by Yolanda Adams, “Keep the dream alive. Don’t let it die. If something deep inside keeps inspiring you to try, don’t stop. And never give up. Don’t ever give up on you. Sometimes, life can place a stumbling block in your way. But you have to keep the faith.”
When you dream, dream big and never give up. Your dream is just yours. Never let anyone tell you that your dream can’t happen -- it can! Keep seeing yourself do what’s never been done before. As you continue to feed your dream and protect it, not only will you keep it alive, but it will come true.
【小题1】What does the underlined words “all odds are against you” in Parragraph 2 mean?

A.You are in hopeless situation.
B.You find everything seems strange.
C.You are not feeling quite well.
D.You have all your friends against you.
【小题2】What did the author dream of doing?
A.Getting his own book publishedB.Owing a colledge degree
C.Becoming a writerD.Publishing his own magazine
【小题3】 What do we learn from Paragraph 5?
A.It takes money to fulfill our dream.
B.The first step is to know our dream.
C.It is important for us to take action.
D.We should not listen to the call of our heart.
【小题4】 The words of Yolanda Adams’song are mentioned in the text     .
A.to support his main point
B.to make his writing interesting
C.to show they share the same view
D.to mean Yolanda Adams is popular
