Rewrite Your Destiny
How many of us blame “destiny (命运)” when we’re going through tough stages of life? We hear people say, it’s bad luck. But is it really so irreversible (不可逆的)? Though a few
__1__ of our life like birth, marriage or death are controlled by destiny, when it comes to hard times, we can change some things by our
__2__ . Even when passing through the roughest period of our life, we can change it by hard work. No good deed goes without being
__3__
and we do have the power of changing the fortunes. For example, if one has worked for 20 hours in a week, the
__4__
will pay for 20 hours.
__5__， if we’re walking on the path of positivity with great faith, we’ll be paid off. Even when nothing seems
__6__， it’s better to keep trying to make something good happen rather than sitting still or crying. When
__7__
from all sides in a dark cave, one is not supposed to break the rock straight away. One makes a small hole in rocks to let the
__8__
and air come in to avoid suffocation(窒息). Then efforts are aimed at
__9__
the rock. Human life is precious and powerful. This power is “will power”. However, this “will power” has to be coupled with hard work and confidence. And if you are doing so, no matter how __10__ the problem or the time is, it will have to change as the result of your deeds and you will rewrite your destiny.
The secret lies in being energetic, never
__11__
and always struggling. The secret lies not in being the loser but in being the
__12__
of circumstances.

当我们在人生中遇到困难的时候，我们常常抱怨自己命运不济，其实只要我们肯付出，我们的努力总会有回报的。
1．B 空后的birth, marriage or death都是我们一生中要发生的事件，因此用events。C、D有一定的干扰性，competition竞争； performance表演， 表现；因此可以排除。2．C 后文有hard work，因此这里讲我们可以通过行动来改变一些事情。D有一定干扰性，goal意思是“目标”，因此可以排除。
3．B 联系下文if we’re walking on the path of positivity with great faith, we’ll be paid off我们知道，作者认为只要我们付出了，就能得到回报。注意这里的双重否定。
4．A 联系空后的will pay for 20 hours我们知道，是雇主付给工人20小时的工钱。
5．C 联系前后文我们知道，作者用前面的例子来推出后面的道理，因此用similarly。
6．D 联系后文的it’s better to keep trying to make something good happen rather than sitting still or crying.我们知道，作者认为，当一切都不奏效的时候，也要尽力让好的事情发生，而不是静坐或者哭泣。work在这里是“起作用、奏效”的意思。
7．A 联系下文的in a dark cave, one is not
supposed to break the rock straight away我们知道，是“被困在”漆黑的山洞里面了。8．D 联系前文的a dark cave以及后面的and air come in我们知道，作者认为，这个人应该在岩石上弄一个小洞，让阳光和空气进来。
9．B 从空前的Then efforts我们知道，在弄了一个小洞后，下一步的努力就是要粉碎掉岩石，因此用breaking。10．A 本句中，no matter how引导了让步状语从句，显然，前面表达的是“不管问有多么艰难，……”。
11．B 从空后的and always struggling我们知道，一个人成功的秘密在于不放弃，一直奋斗。
12．D 联系空前的not in being the loser我们可以知道，此空和loser形成对比，故选D。
(二)
“不去冒险，就不会有损失。”这是平庸者的借口，这是无为者的巧言。还是这句话说得好：乌龟只有把脖于伸出来，才能得以前进。
13．B
Dave Barry的父亲让他懂得了一个道理，这个道理仍然适用于(applies to)他现在的生活。
14．A 联系此空后面的that they never venture beyond the familiar可知他们从不会去做自己不熟悉的事情， 这是因为他们害怕失败(fail)。
15．B 联系空后的in the cocoon我们知道，很多人被限制在保护层内。
16．A “和遗憾比起来，安全更重要”的思想把许多人限制(trapped)在舒服的(comfortable)保护层内。
17．D 下文讲述的内容是Col. Robert Johnson敢于破除迷信而去吃wolf peach的故事，所以此处应该选story。
18．C 根据下文中的to see Col. Johnson eat the “poisonous” peach可知他要吃(eat) a wolf peach。
19．A 根据下文可知人们对wolf peach的荒诞的说法信以为真，所以对Col. Robert Johnson的做法感到费解(puzzled)。
20．D 根据下文中提到的the “poisonous” peach说明人们认为这种东西是有毒的(poisonous)。
21．B survive the experience说明了他生存的艰难。
22．D 根据句中“Nearly 2,000 people”和下文的意思可知人们聚集(crowded)到广场看他吃wolf peach。
23．A 联系全文以及结合生活常识可知，人们对wolf peach的说法是荒诞的，因此选A。
24．D 此处用乌龟作比喻，乌龟只有把脖子伸出来．才能得以前进(progress)。
