　　Why is setting goals important? Because goals can help you do, be, and experience everything you want in life．Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen．

　　Successful people imagine how their life should be and set lots of goals．By setting goals you are taking control of your life．It’s like having a map to show you where you want to go．Think of it this way．There are two drivers．One has a destination in mind(her goal)which can be found on a map．She can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turns．The other driver has no goal or destination or map．She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but she drives aimlessly around, never getting anywhere, just using up gas．Which driver do you want to be?

　　Winners in life set foals and follow through on them．They decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals．Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident．Goals aren’t difficult to set－and they aren’t difficult to reach．It’s up to you to find out what your goals really are．You are the one who must decide what to achieve and in what direction to aim your life．

　　Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it．Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power．Like a contract with yourself, they are harder to neglect or forget．Also when you write your goals in a particular way, you are able to make yourself continuously aware of situations that will bring you nearer to your goals．

(1)

The article is written to throw light on _________．
[　　]
A．	the importance of setting goals
B．	the way of setting goals
C．	the winners of competitions
D．	the goals in life

The example of two drivers is adopted in order to _________．
[　　]
A．	compare the difference of goals
B．	explain the traffic rules
C．	help readers understand the importance of goals
D．	tell the function of a map

(3)

The main idea of the fourth paragraph is that _________．
[　　]
A．	it’s better to write a goal down
B．	written goals can’t be forgotten easily
C．	try to make yourself aware of your goals
D．	written goals can be reviewed regularly

答案：1．A;2．C;3．A;

Dear Editor,

　　Brockingham is run by people who are more interested in tourists than its residents．The problem is that the people running the government refuse to accept new ideas．By banning(禁止)all fast-food restaurants and discount stores, they take away all the places kids can afford to shop．

　　These people forget that when they were young, they could go to the South Street Soda Fountain and get an ice-cream soda for 25 cents．Today you can’t find an ice-cream soda anywhere in Brockingham for less than ＄2! Where can kids go for a snack?

　　There is not a single restaurant in Brockingham where a family of four can eat dinner for less than ＄100．Add a 15％ tip and sales tax and you have spent nearly ＄125 to eat a meal you could prepare at home for about ＄12．Have you noticed that Brockingham families never dine in Brockingham?

　　Fast-food restaurants are also a good place for school kids to get an after-school job．Fast-food restaurants are busiest during the early supper hours when students are able to work, whereas the fancy food restaurants cater to late-night diners．Working in one of these establishments requires working shifts that are too late for most students．

　　The City Council claims that local businessmen, rather than national chains, should benefit from the tourist business．I agree that it is important to support local businesses, but I think the fast-food restaurants would encourage more people to shop in Brockingham．

　　Another thing that disturbs me is that we must travel 25 miles to the nearest discount store．If I need a tire for my bike, I have a choice of buying one at Surf and Peddle Sport Shop for ＄15 or driving to Parkersburg Discount Center where I can buy the same kind of tire for ＄9．Again, I think the ban on all food chains and discount houses is counterproductive for our city．

　　Wes Woodrow 9th-Grade Student at Brockingham High School

(1)

Why does Wes Woodrow write this letter to the editor?
[　　]
A．	Because the government bans all fast-food restaurants and discount stores in Brockingham．
B．	Because the writer can’t find an ice-cream soda anywhere in Brockingham for less than ＄2．
C．	Because a family of four can’t find a restaurant in Brockingham to eat dinner for less than ＄100．
D．	Because the writer has to travel 25 miles to the nearest discount store．

(2)

From the letter we can infer that ________．
[　　]
A．	the writer used to buy a lot of ice-cream soda
B．	the students refuse to work in fancy food restaurants
C．	the government’s ban benefits local businessmen much
D．	discount stores usually offer a discount of 40％

(3)

The underlined word “counterproductive” in paragraph 6 of the letter probably means ________．
[　　]
A．	cheap, not expensive
B．	surprising, not expected
C．	harmful, not helpful
D．	doubtful, not sure

(4)

One way the writer of this letter tries to convince the reader is by ________．
[　　]
A．	complaining that someone has to drive him to Parkersburg
B．	getting an after-school job in fast-food restaurant himself
C．	suggesting that many businessmen have the same opinion
D．	giving specific examples of the high costs in Brockingham
