    　　Goal chances came and goal chances went. But two of the world's highest-ranked teams－with some of football's highest-paid players－couldn't get the ball into the net. And they were playing against sides that only just made it to the World Cup.

    　　With two defeats, one draw and no goals, France collected its newest title since rising to the top of the game four years ago: The worst defending champion in World Cup history.

    　　“I'm very disappointed, and it's the end of a beautiful story,” said a French striker David Trezeguet. “The story began in 1998 and ended today against Denmark.”

    　　France won the 2000 European Championships and was ranked the best team on the planet before the World Cup.

    　　Besides the goalposts (门柱) and crossbars (球门横梁) seeming to be against this unlucky team, France's game plan has been the same for four years so opponents know it by heart.

    　　Senegal, an African team playing in its first World Cup, surprised everyone by beating France in the opening World Cup match before entering the second round successfully. Uruguay and Denmark followed a similar strategy to stop France, creating a defensive barrier (屏障) and launching many counter-attacks.

    　　Following France, Argentina became the second big-name to take an early plane home from this year's World Cup.

    　　The South Americans were expected to become world champions for a third time. This was particularly because of an impressive display when they lost just one of their 18 qualifying matches.

    　　The team's 1-0 loss to England on June 7 was the beginning of a nightmare for the players. But even after this surprising defeat, they never thought that they would be going home so soon.

    　　But a 1-1 draw in Argentina's final group match against Sweden made the unexpected a reality.

    1．The players on the French team ________.

    [　　]

    A．were satisfied with the fact that they could go home soon

    B．got surprised at the results of the games

    C．won only one game in this year's World Cup

    　　A child's birthday party doesn't have to be a hassle; it can be a basket of fun, according to Beth Anaclerio, an Evanston mother of two, ages 4 and 18 months．

    　　“Having a party at home usually requires a lot of running around on the part of the parents, and often the birthday boy or girl gets lost in wild excitement．But it really doesn't have to be that way,” said Anaclerio．Last summer, Anaclerio and her friend Jill Carlisle, a Northbrook mother of a 2-year-old, founded a home party-planning business called “A Party in a Basket．” Their goal is to help parents and children share in the fun part of party planning, like choosing the subject or making a cake, while they take care of everything．

    　　Drawing on their experiences as mothers, they have created 10 ready-to-use, home party packages．Everything a family needs to plan a party, except the cake and ice cream, is delivered to the home in a large basket．

    　　“Our parties are aimed for children 2 to 10,” Anaclerio said, “and they're very interactive (互动) and creative in that they build a sense of drama based on a subject．For example, at the Soda Shoppe party the guests become waiters and waitresses and build wonderful ice cream creations．”

    　　The standard $ 200 package for eight children includes a basket filled with invitations, gifts, games and prizes, paper goods, a party planner and the like．For more information, call Anaclerio at 708-864-6584 or Carlisle at 708-205-9141．

    　　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

    (2)

    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
