    Too many people wander through life like sleepwalkers．Each day they follow familiar routines，never asking，“What am I doing with my life?’’and they don’t know what they’re doing because they lack goals．
    Goal-setting is a focusing of the will to move in a certain direction．Begin with a clear conception of what you want．Write down your goals and date them—putting them into words clarifies them．Rather than concentrating on objects to acquire and possess，focus on fulfilling your desires to do，to produce，to contribute—goal-setting that yields the true sense of satisfaction we all need．
    It’s important to visualize(想象)yourself accomplishing your goal．While losers visualize the penalties(不利)of failure，winners visualize the rewards of success．I’ve seen it among athletes，statistics contrasting air and highway safety，but it made no difference．I had read too many articles describing crash scenes and imagined these scenes vividly．I had programmed myself，without realizing it，to stay off planes．
    Then one summer I had the opportunity to fly on a private plane with friends to a resort；I didn’t want to miss out on a great vacation．So I spent two weeks imagining a smooth flight on a beautiful sunny day and an easy landing．
    When the day arrived，I was eager to go．To everyone’s surprise，I got on the plane and I loved every minute of it，and I still use the techniques I employed that day．
    小题1:According to the passage，if you want to be successful，the first thing for you to do is         .
    A．find the right methodsB．be careful about everything
    C．know your ability D．have a clear goal
    小题2:If you have a target，you will         .
    A．wander like a sleepwalkerB．know well what you are doing
    C．do the same work every dayD．put it into words
    小题3:The problem with the author before he overcame his fear of air travel is that         .
    A．he didn’t know air travel is safer than highway travel
    B．he couldn’t imagine himself accomplishing his goal
    C．he read too much about plane crashes and tried to avoid flying
    D．he wanted to take a private plane instead of a public one
    小题4:What would be the best title for this passage?
    A．Define Your Coal
    B．Visualize Rewards of Success
    C．Overcome The Fear of Air Travel
    D．Sleepwalking Through Life

    Some couples spend every waking minute together. Others fill their hours with personal hobbies,outside interests and even part-time jobs, just to keep their distance from each other! "There should be private time and couple time," suggests Dr. Stephen Treat at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia."You don't want your latter years to turn into a process where two people unite as one. If you hold too tightly to your partner, it's going to cause resentment and anger. If you're completely separate, you'll both be lonely and disconnected. You need balance. So you have to talk about how you'll achieve that."
    The right balance? It's different for every couple. "Having a conversation about time can be difficult,but it's important for both partners to process those feelings out loud," Dr. Treat says. "You should not be accusing and act as a judge—ask the difficult questions, but do it in a loving way. You could say something like, 'How are we going to be as individuals and how are we going to be as a couple?' "
    Barbara and Chris Christensen have achieved the balance that works for them. In addition to daily routines that keep them close—including about 10 minutes for a daily check-in and about a half hour of relaxation time—they each maintain separate interests and friendships.
    "We have found that we need time apart," Barbara says. "I have a group of women friends that I have known for the last 30 years. We have dinner out once a month. We women also have parties and weekend or weeklong vacations as a group at a beach or somewhere. Chris, a former fighter pilot, has many aviation-oriented(航空的) groups and friends and also a poker-playing group of our friends. I may be with him during the poker night, but I don't play, and the wives usually watch a chick flick' DVD or something while the poker group has an evening of fun. We have found it important to have separate time as well as together time."
    小题1:The author writes the passage to ______.
    A．offer some suggestions on how to spend the time after retirement
    B．advise couples to develop their separate hobbies
    C．warn couples not to be accusing each other
    D．give people some advice on how to entertain themselves after retirement
    小题2: Dr. Stephen suggests that _________after retirement.
    A．couples stay together all the time
    B．couples express their feelings in a loving way
    C．couples be separate
    D．wives make many friends
    小题3:It can be inferred that________.
    A．many couples are faced with problems after retirement
    B．America has a large population of retired people
    C．most people join various social groups after retirement
    D．playing poker is a popular activity among retired people
    小题4:Barbara and her friends do the following EXCEPT_______.
    A．having dinner regularly
    B．holding parties
    C．having weekly vacations at the beach
    D．having fun playing poker
    小题5:The second paragraph is mainly intended to_______.
    A．warn the husband not to act as a judge
    B．suggest couples have discussions about difficulties
    C．suggest how to keep the correct balance

    Warning: reading too much Cinderella to your daughter may damage her emotional health in later life. A paper to be developed at the international congress of cognitive psychotherapy(认知心理疗法) in Gothenburg suggests a link between the attitudes of women abused by their parents and early exposure to the wrong sort of fairy tales. It says girls who identified with Cinderella, Rapunzel and Beauty in Beauty and the Beast were more likely to say in destructive relationships as adults.
    The theory was developed by Susan Darker Smith, a psychotherapist at the University of Derby. She interviewed 67 female abuse survivors and found that 61 put up with severe abuse because they believed they could change their partners with patience, composition and love. The same view was taken by male survivors who had been abused as children. Hardly any of the women in a control group, who had not experienced abuse, thought they could change their partners in this way.
    The same view was taken by male survivors who had been abused as children. These women and men said they would leave a relationship rather than put up with abuse from a partner. Ms Darker Smith found the abused women were much more likely to identify with Cinderella and other submissive female characters in fairytales, who were later rescued by a stranger prince or hero.
    Although most girls heard the stories, damage appeared to be done to those who adopted the characters as role models. “They believe if their love is strong enough they can change their parents’ behaviors,” she said.” Overexposure in children to stories that emphasize the transformational qualities of love may make women believe they can change their partners.” For example, they might never have understood the obvious flaw in the story of Rapunzel, who remained locked in a high tower until rescued by a knight on a white horse, who broke the door down. “The question,” said Ms Darker Smith, “is why she did not break the door down herself.”
    小题1:The passage is especially intended for _________.
    A．parents with young daughters
    B．girls who like reading fairy stories
    C．girls who think they can change their partners
    D．parents with grown-up daughters
    小题2:Cinderella, Rapunzel and Beauty in Beauty and the Beast are similar in that _________.
    A．They all married some princes
    B．They all changed their partners with love
    C．They were all abused by their partners
    D．They all put up with abuse
    小题3:Which of the following statements is true of the women in a control group?
    A．They don’t believe in fairy tales.
    B．They don’t believe in the transformational qualities of love.
    C．They have also experienced abuse.
    D．They survived abuse.
    小题4:What does the underlined word “submissive”in the 3rd paragraph probably mean?
    A．kind-hearted B．passive C．gentle D．easy-going

    By choosing to let go of the past, we sweep out all the ashes that weigh us down and affect every aspect of our health, and our peace of mind.
    My friend Jean was divorced after a thirty-year marriage that produced three daughters, one son and eight grandchildren. Because she actually raised them single-handedly, Jean was hurt and angry that the children didn't take her part after the divorce. For months she refused to attend any family celebration to which her former husband Jim was invited. When I reasoned that her children’s understanding of the relationship with and between the parents was probably altogether different from hers, she stuck to the belief that she was right.
    One day Jean called in tears. “Saturday is my granddaughter's birthday, and I want to be with her, but I can’t bring myself to face my former husband.”  “Jim isn't the problem,” I said gently, “it's false pride. Instead of holding on to the painful past, which is over and done, let the feelings go and get on with your life. You're depriving yourself of the joy of sharing in these important occasions, while Jim feels free to experience them. Tell me, would you rather be right, or be happy?”
    That must have done the trick because when Saturday arrived, Jean appeared at her daughter's home carrying her famous chocolate-chip cookies and a beautiful birthday
    cake.
    How great it feels to let go! And the more we practice the art of letting go of all negativity, the better able we become to devote our thoughts, our time, and our energy to living joyfully in the present, what ever age we happen to be.
    小题1: It can be inferred that ____.
    A．Jim did very little to bring up the children during their marriage.
    B．The writer thought Jean and Jim shouldn't have divorced.
    C．The children were on their father's side and didn't invite Jean to any family celebration.
    D．Jean had been too tough on Jim before they divorced.
    小题2:The underlined phrase “depriving yourself of” is closest in meaning to ____ .
    A．persuading yourself to getB．taking away from yourself
    C．taking false pride of yourself D．talking yourself into showing
    小题3:In the writer's opinion, ____.
    A．Jean and Jim should be remarried
    B．a broken family could live together in peace
    C．to be happy is more meaningful than to be right
    D．everyone should look into the future

    Who is there among us who hasn’t dreamed of having his or her own small (maybe , several years later , even big )business , and having wonderful freedom , both from a boss and from the time clock ; the freedom to make up our own rules for our work , and our own plans —arranging our own hours of work ? That way work would be both painless and fun. Or, so we imagine.
    Well, in fact it isn’t quite as simple as that. Yes , it is true that being the boss has its satisfactions and that you can arrange your working hours freely if you own your own small business . But in those early years of starting your own business, you shouldn’t think of a free day, not to mention flying off for a month’s vacation. It is not unusual for new business owners to work seventy or eighty hours a week , and if there is a day off , that day might need to be devoted to accounting (算账).
    But this negative picture doesn’t destroy the beautiful hopes. The possibility of getting something wonderful in return—both material and mental—continues to drive that large number of people who start up small businesses each year in the United States.
    小题1:From the first paragraph, we know that everybody hopes  ________ .
    A．to rule others B．to be his or her own boss
    C．to get a time clockD．to be free from work
    小题2:Most new business owners have to  ________  .
    A．work more than 10 hours a day B．devote himself to accounting
    C．fly to some places in the world D．have a day off in a week
    小题3:The expression “negative picture” most probably means “  ________ “.
    A．a terrible experience B．a poor picture
    C．limited freedom D．unpleasant situations
    小题4:The beautiful hopes will never be destroyed because  ________ .
    A．people love beautiful things by nature
    B．people have a strong desire to seek personal gains
    C．small businesses make big money each year in the US
    D．small businesses have advantages over big companies
