题目列表(包括答案和解析)
①Some people who find themselves facing a problem react by just giving up.But it is not good to
escape from problems by giving up or by making excuses for failures.You may be sure that all young
people go through the same difficult process that you are going through:meeting new situations,developing
new skills,and testing their abilities.
②If you are unhappy about something,face it.Try to state the problem in a few words,so that you
will know exactly what you are_up_against.Then see if you can "put your finger" on the cause of your
unhappiness.
③In many eases,we only "think" there is no solution to a particular problem.But often we can
overcome the problem and achieve the goal by making a direct attack.
④For example,a boy wanted to be a debater (辩论家). When he tried out for the debating team as
a freshman,the coach thought he was hopeless.He was shy; he had a highpitched voice; and his posture
(体态) was poor.Although he was given little hope of success,he took advantage of every opportunity
to debate.He studied successful speakers and evaluated his own weaknesses and advantages.Then he
spent many hours learning all the facts on the topics for debate,and worked at developing good posture
and at speaking clearly.By his junior year,he made the school debating team,and in his senior year he
was on the winning team in his state.He achieved his goal because he had made a direct attack upon his
problem.
⑤Although direct attack is often the bestway to meet problems,we have to be realistic (现实的) in
judging situations.Sometimes it is necessary to change either the method or the goal.
⑥A boy who wants to be a great football player may not be too strong and not quite fast enough for
football.In this situation,becoming a great football player may be an unreasonable goal for him.However,
he may become outstanding in tennis or golf,and satisfy his desire to take part in sports.
⑦A girl who is not goodlooking may decide that she cannot win popularity with her face,and so she
may try to develop an interesting personality,which eventually will get her much further.In this situation,
she must change her method of achieving her goal.
⑧So,although direct attack is often the best way to handle problems,it is important to study the
situation and make a wise decision about what to do.
1. From the first paragraph,we can learn that________.
A. it is really hard to escape from problems
B. people can solve all the problems that they meet

A. how important the appearance is
B. how hard to develop a good personality

We were standing at the top of a church tower. My father had brought me to this spot in a small town not far from our home in Rome. I wondered why.
“Look down, Elsa,” father said. I gathered all my courage and looked down. I saw the square in the center of the village. And I saw the crisscross (十字形) of twisting, turning streets leading to the square. “See, my dear,” father said gently. “There is more than one way to the square. Life is like that. If you can’t get to the place where you want to go by one road, try another.”
Now I understood why I was there. Earlier that day I had begged my mother to do something about the awful lunches that were served at school. But she refused because she could not believe the lunches were as bad as I said.
When I turned to father for help, he didn’t say anything. Instead, he brought me to this high tower to give me a lesson. By the time we reached home, I had a plan.
At school the next day, I secretly poured my luncheon（午餐）soup into a bottle and brought it home. Then I asked our cook to serve it to mother at dinner. The plan worked perfectly. She swallowed one spoonful and sputtered（喷溅出）“ The cook must have gone mad！” Quickly I told her what I had done, and Mother stated firmly that she would take up the matter of lunches at school the next day!
In the years that followed I often remembered the lesson father taught me. I began to work as a fashion designer two years ago. I wouldn’t stop working until I tried every possible means to my goal. Father’s wise words always remind me that there is more than one way to the square.
