Question

【題目】Every student is eager to achieve the goals they have set earlier. Here is what experts advise on how to do it.

【1】 When it comes to choosing your goal, make sure that it states exactly what it is that you want to achieve. If your goal seems too big, divide it into simpler, easier tasks.

Write down your goal. You can write it in a journal or write it on a sticky note. Writing keeps your memory fresh and helps you clear up the clutter (雜亂) in your brain. Try to keep a journal or a diary.

Break your goal down. By chopping your goal up into manageable sections, it allows you to mentally make your way through the goal until the end of a year. 【2】 Therefore, you’re far less likely to give up or dodge (逃避) your goal by taking shortcuts or refusing to do anything.

Put a brake (阻力) on distractions. Turn off all distractions like TV, the Internet, your phone and every other gadget you have at home.【3】

Make it happen.【4】 Thinking is a useful start but thinking doesn’t do the heavy work and thinking certainly won’t move mountains. Go out every morning knowing what you need to do and then do it!

Stay positive. Keep saying that you can do it. Stay motivated and be confident.

Reward yourself.【5】 Every once in a while, if you complete a goal, treat yourself than extra bar of chocolate or make time to read that book you’ve been wanting to read since two months ago.

A. Don’t think to yourself that over time you will manage to do it

B. Choose a specific, realistic and important goal

C. It is necessary to choose a proper way to finish the goals

D. Carry out your goal as soon as possible

E. Don’t be too hard on yourself

F. This method makes it easier to deal with

G. Keep emails, phone calls, texts, etc. to a minimum.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】B

【2】F

【3】G

【4】A

【5】E

【解析】本文是一篇應用文。文章簡約向讀者介紹了完成學習目標的幾種策略。

【1】B

段落首句，相當于一個小標題。根據文章每段首句可知此處要用祈使句。再根據本段下文：當談到你的目標時，確保它準確地陳述了你想要達到的目標。也就是要選擇一個具體的、現實的和重要的目標。關鍵詞是choosing。故選B。

【2】F

根據上文：因此，你不太可能通過敏捷或拒絕做任何事情來放棄或逃避你的目標。可知，空出應表示原因：分解目標這種方法使得它更容易理解。所以應選擇F項。

【3】G

從文章結構上可以看出，此空是主旨句，應與前幾個要點并列，必須為祈使句，同時根據本段中的Turn off all distractions，可知此處選G項。

【4】A

分析本段的主題句Make it happen.以及空后的內容可知，應選A。A項中的Don’t think to yourself與空后內容相符。

【5】E

由本段主旨句Reward yourself.可知，E項，Don’t be too hard on yourself意為“不要對自己太苛刻”是從反面論證這個主題，符合語境，故選E。
