11．The decisions that we make shape us throughout our lives．No matter what decisions we make，good or bad，each one puts us on a new road in the future．Make a bad decision？No problem．Learn from the decision and make another decision to get on a different path．This is advice that I got from Tony Robbins in his book Awaken the Giant Within．This is a book that I recommend（推薦） to anyone wanting to develop a fire to make changes in their life．It helped me to understand how fear of making poor choices was hinderingme from becoming the great man who I am today．Now I am not saying I am a well-known person in any particular circle．But I am the king of my castle working hard and trying to make good decisions in regard to the paths that I have chosen．I am a great man in the eyes of my wife and my children．And that is all the recognition that I need in my lifetime．And I know that my past failures have been the building block that I continue to use to build my career and self-image in my community that I live in．
Ben Lerer，cofounder of the CEO of Thrillist Media Group，is a good example of this．In a n article on the Fast Company website，Lerer talks about this very subject．He says，"I've had to make some really tough decisions but finally，I think the best companies are those that can recognize when something isn't goi ng right，and fix it，instead of just turning a blind eye because it's easier．"Great people make decisions．When a decision does not have the desired result，make a different decision．It does not get any simpler than that．

22．From Tony Robbin's Awaken the Giant Within，the writer knewD．
A．making a bad decision is very terrible
B．making decisions helps us become a great man
C．being afraid to make a bad decision is very natural
D．learning from the bad decision can help make a new choice 
23．The underlined word"hindering"can be replaced byA．
A．stopping         B．stealing         C．preserving        D．requiring
24．What can be inferred from the last paragraph？B
A．A bad decision has a bad effect on people．
B．The best company can admit and correct a bad decision．
C．People should learn how to make a good decision．
D．Making a decision is much simpler than changing one．
25．What could be the best title of the passage？C
A．Overcome You r Fears                  B．Take Action
C．Make Decisions                        D．Trust Yourself．

分析 一生中，我們會作出各種各樣的決定，有好的，也有壞的．但當我們作出的決定沒有產(chǎn)生預(yù)期的結(jié)果時，我們應(yīng)從這個不好的決定中吸取教訓(xùn)、回歸正途，而不是視而不見、任其發(fā)展．

解答 22．D細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第一段中的"Learn from the decision and make another decision to get on a different path．This is advice that I got from Tony Robbins in his book Awaken the Giant Within"可知，該題選D項．
23．A　詞義猜測題．根據(jù)上文中的"Make a bad decision？No problem…get  on a different path．"及畫線詞前后的內(nèi)容可推知，該詞的意思是"阻止，妨礙"，故選A項
24．B推理判斷題．根據(jù)最后一段中的"I think the best companies are those  that can recognize when something isn't going right，and fix it"可知，該題選B項．
25．C標題歸納題．根據(jù)第一段中的"The decisions that we make shape us  throughout our lives．"以及下文的內(nèi)容可知，本文主要介紹的是作決定方面的內(nèi)容．故選C項．

點評 閱讀理解題測試考生在閱讀基礎(chǔ)上的邏輯推理能力，要求考生根據(jù)文章所述事件的邏輯關(guān)系，對未說明的趨勢或結(jié)局作出合理的推斷；或根據(jù)作者所闡述的觀點理論，對文章未涉及的現(xiàn)象、事例給以解釋．考生首先要仔細閱讀短文，完整了解信息，準確把握作者觀點．

2．There are some strong-minded people that are able to stop smoking today and be free from the addiction the next day．However，some smokers may have to seek help from medication （藥物治療） in order to kick the habit．
What medication actually does is to reduce the wish to smoke．Some of the medication must be taken with a doctor's guidance．The five most common medications to stop smoking are Bupropion SR，nicotine gum，nicotine inhalers（吸入器），nicotine nasal spray（鼻腔噴劑） and nicotine patches．People can buy nicotine gum and nicotine patches in chemists．However，the other medications require a prescription．
Zyban tablets（藥片）have been found to be highly effective in curing people of smoking addiction．The tablet needs to be taken whole，without crushing （碾碎）it，as crushing can lead to side effects．It can be bought on the prescription of a doctor．

Nicotine gum is supposed to be a safer choice．It is used in such a way that it comes into contact with the blood vessels （脈管） in the mouth and then releases the nicotine．The nicotine should not go through the stomach； otherwise，it may cause certain side effects．
These different types of medications have to be taken quite carefully．Do ask your doctor before taking any of these．
