【解析】
试题分析:
本空前有问句,空后出现choice这一关键词,A选项既回答上文问题又引出了下文choice的概念,随后下文承接该话题继续展开。故选A。
其一,该项中carry out it中it指代的是上句中的responsibility;其二,虽然选择意味着责任,但是同时又会给我们带来巨大的回报,故选D。
E选项是对上文的not still 和 a flow的进一步解释。另外,其中leads us与下文monitor 相呼应,且E选项中的closer to or farther from our goals与下文的Am I moving closer to my goal? to readjust myself with my goals吻合。故选E。
其一,“因为每天都在选择,而使生活变得更加舒适和方便”。其二, 该空的后文举例说明前文的观点,故该空具有概括意义。故选B。
上文叙述“生活就像下棋”,下文“要走出特定环境下最好的一步棋”,前后为顺接关系,故选C。
考点:考查信息匹配
点评:在答题中,应首先略读一下短文,了解一下短文的大致意思,然后把几个选项含义理解透,尤其注意意思相近,表达有交叉的选项之间的区别。然后再细读短文,把答案填入合适位置。答题时可以把含义相近的几个选项轮流填入同一处位置,反复阅读,反复体会,找出最佳选项,对于实在没有把握的小题可以留待最后完成。完成短文后,再认真通读一遍全文,看看上下语意是否通顺,是否符合逻辑关系。
