Question

【題目】Why have you been so successful in reaching some of your goals, but not others? If you aren’t sure, you are far from being alone in your confusion. In fact, decades of research on achievement suggests that successful people reach their goals not simply because of who they are, but more often because of what they do. 【1】

1．Get specific

When you set yourself a goal, try to be as specific as possible. "Lose 5 pounds" is a better goal than "lose some weight" because it gives you a clear idea of what success looks like. 【2】 Also, think about the specific actions that need to be taken to reach your goal.

2． 【3】

Considering how busy most of us are, it's not surprising that we often miss opportunities to act on a goal because we simply fail to notice them. Did you really have no time to work out today? No chance at any point to return that phone call? Achieving your goal means seize these opportunities before they slip through your fingers.

3．Know exactly how far you have left to go

Achieving any goal also requires honest and regular monitoring （監(jiān)督）of your progress—if not by others, then by you yourself. If you don't know how well you are doing, you can't adjust your behavior accordingly. 【4】

It is my hope that you have gained some insight （認(rèn)識(shí)）into all the things you have been doing right all along. Remember: 【5】 It’s never what you are, but what you do.

A．Wait for opportunitiesto appear．

B．Seize the moment to act on your goals.

C．Here are things successful people do differently.

D．Next I'll talk about my own experience on how to achieve success.

E．You don't need to become a different person to become a more successful one.

F．Check your progress frequently — weekly, or even daily, depending on the goal.

G．Knowing exactly what you want to achieve keeps you motivated until you get there.

試題分析：本文講述成功的人能夠?qū)崿F(xiàn)他們的目標(biāo)不僅僅是因?yàn)樗麄兪钦l而是因?yàn)樗麄冏鍪裁�，具體說來成功的人所做的不同的事主要有：目標(biāo)確定、抓住機(jī)遇、定時(shí)監(jiān)督。只有通過你所做的事你才能獲得成功的道理。

【1】C分析推理題。根據(jù)前一句successful people reach their goals not simply because of who they are, but more often because of what they do.成功的人能實(shí)現(xiàn)他的目標(biāo)不僅僅是因?yàn)樗麄兪钦l，而是因?yàn)樗麄冏鍪裁矗�后文就列�?項(xiàng)成功人士的做法，可知該空意為以下就是成功人士們做的事情。故選C

【2】G分析推理題。根據(jù)該空一段第一句When you set yourself a goal, try to be as specific as possible.當(dāng)你為自己設(shè)定目標(biāo)，盡可能具體，可知這一段就是闡述要設(shè)定具體的目標(biāo)，確定地知道自己要做什么，G選項(xiàng)表達(dá)的是確定地知道自己要做什么會(huì)是你保持積極，故選G

【3】B分析推理題。根據(jù)該段最后一句Achieving your goal means seize these opportunities before they slip through your fingers.實(shí)現(xiàn)你的目標(biāo)意味著在機(jī)會(huì)流失于指縫間之前抓住它，可知該段就是闡述抓住機(jī)會(huì)實(shí)現(xiàn)目標(biāo)，故選B

【4】F分析推理題。根據(jù)該段第一句Achieving any goal also requires honest and regular monitoring （監(jiān)督）of your progress實(shí)現(xiàn)目標(biāo)需要忠誠(chéng)以及定期監(jiān)督你的進(jìn)步，可知該段就是闡述要頻繁檢查你的進(jìn)步，故選F

【5】E分析推理題。根據(jù)后句It’s never what you are, but what you do.從來不是你是誰而是你做什么至關(guān)重要，可知前句應(yīng)是闡述成為一個(gè)成功的人并不是要你多么特別，故選E
