　　From now on, never spend your precious 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 you make the right choice．

　　You cannot be successful without first developing your self-confidence．Your level of self-confidence 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-confidence are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives．They are mere 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 that 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 the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks．

　　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-confidence are compared to leaves because they ________．
[　　]
A．	are ready to change their minds
B．	can't control themselves in life
C．	don't have the power to face their fate

[　　]
A．	their failure is only because of bad luck

Turkey’s Orhan Pamuk Won Nobel Prize

　　Orhan Pamuk, Turkey’s best-known novelist and incendiary social commentator, won the 2006 Nobel prize for Literature on Thursday．

　　Turkish novelist Orhan Pamuk, with an Ottoman era mosque in the background, talks during an interview with the Associated Press in Istanbul, Turkey, in this Jan．30, 2002 file photo．Orhan Pamuk won the Nobel literature prize on Thursday, Oct．12, 2006, for his works dealing with issues of identity and clashing cultures．The Swedish Academy said that Pamuk “in the quest for the melancholic soul of his native city has discovered new symbols for the clash and interlacing of cultures”．

　　Here are some reactions to the news from Turkey．

　　PINAR KUR, A LEADING FEMALE TURKISH NOVELIST：

　　“For years, everybody has wished someone from Turkey would win the Nobel．But it is also known, both in Turkey and abroad, that this prize is much more related to politics than to literature, it is given more for political reasons．It is very unfortunate that this prize announcement was made on the same day as the(Armenian genocide)bill in France．”

　　SUAT KINIKLIOGLU, GERMAN MARSHALL PLAN OF THE UNITED STATES

　　“With all due respect to Orhan Pamuk, whose books I read and like, I believe his comments on the Armenian genocide have been influential in his winning this prize．I think many Turks will see it in this way too and will not be cheering．”

　　“And this is the worst day that this could happen, when the French parliament approves a bill making it a crime to deny the Armenian genocide．”

　　“There is a political dimension to all this．I do not believe he was chosen purely on the basis of his artistic capacity, even though he is a great writer．”

　　BUKET UZUNER, TURKISH NOVELIST AND SHORT-STORY WRITER

　　From now maybe(the world)can speak about “Turkish Literature”．I attach great importance to that．We had all hoped Yasar Kemal(veteran chronicler of rural life in Anatolia)would win the Nobel, everyone knows this, but I’m also happy for Pamuk to win this prize．

(1)

Orhan Pamuk won ________．
[　　]
A．	Nobel prize for Physics
B．	Nobel prize for Literature
C．	Nobel Prize for Chemistry
D．	Nobel prize for Peace

(2)

Why did Orhan Pamuk win the Nobel literature prize?
[　　]
A．	Because he is very famous in Turkey．
B．	Because of his works dealing with issues of identity and clashing cultures．
C．	Because Turkish Literature has a great effect on the world literature．
D．	Not mentioned in the passage．

(3)

Who thinks Orhan Pamuk winning the prize has a more influence on politics than on literature?
[　　]
A．	BUKET UZUNER
B．	SUAT KINIKLIOGLU
C．	PINAR KUR
D．	ORHAN PAMUK
