My mother has always been a follower of traditional methods when it comes to anything. She cooks traditional food，likes dressing up traditionally and likes the traditional way of shopping. She loves going to markets and going from one shop to another to find out what suits her best. She can walk miles when it comes to shopping along with her friends. She knows all the local markets and shops and knows very well where she can get best discounts（折扣）．

However，now she always gets tired when she goes out in the market. So one day I decided to introduce a new shop，which is much larger than usual markets and where she can also get discounts．I am talking about online gift stores. She has a basic knowledge of computers and can operate computers. At the beginning，she was doubtful about shopping from these online gift shops because she wasn’t too sure about the quality of the products.

One day I decided to get her some branded things so that she could build trust in these shops. I ordered a Timex watch and a Sisley handbag for her. She never bought things online，but when they were delivered as a gift，she jumped for joy. She could not believe that I had ordered these gifts for her despite her being not much positive about online shops. However，after she saw both the products，she was assured that these online gift shops sent the promised brands and products，she loved her new watch and handbag.

After this experience she ordered a gift for her friend's wedding. She chose a gift basket that could be made according to her requirements. They sent a beautifully decorated basket with fine wines and chocolates. The basket was so artistically decorated that it became her friend's favorite gift. Since then she has been consistently shopping online.

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 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 stone for success.

1.According to the passage, winners .

A. blame themselves rather that others

B. meet with fewer difficulties in their lives

C. have responsible and able colleagues

D. deal with problems rather than blame others

2.The underlined word remedy in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to .

A. improve B. accept

C. avoid D. consider

3.When your colleague brings about a problem, you should .

A. blame him for his lack of responsibility

B. find a better way to handle the problem

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
