Goals are the guides all through our life. We all have goals that we are moving towards and making a great effort to achieve. This is a good thing. Or can it be bad? How many of us never reach our goals and yet we have tried so hard and really thought about nothing else? I believe the mistake most of us make is that we do not focus on our present situation.

Let me explain. Most of us see our present situation as a stepping stone that we use simply as a means of reaching our final destination. We don’t take time to truly appreciate where we are today and all the great things we already have in our lives. We should focus our attention on the journey and not on the destination, or we will miss the beautiful scenery along the way.

Let’s use our job as an example. Now most of us want a promotion. We have plans to become the manager or general manager in our companies. Unfortunately, most of us will never reach the goal, but will watch others achieve our goal instead.

What we should be doing is focusing on the job we are currently in now. Forget where we want to get to and just focus on the present. You see, what we can control is our performance in our current job. We can decide to be the best we possibly can in our current job. Now this may mean further education to have the skills we currently do not have. It may mean working harder to produce better results than our colleagues. It could simply be a change of attitude, such as stopping complaining and becoming a more devoted and supportive employee. By doing our current job to the best of our abilities, we in fact give ourselves the best chance of promotion.

So the best thing for all of us to do to achieve our goals is to just focus on what we have and where we are now. Do the best and be the best we possibly can in our current situations, and we will give ourselves the very best chance of reaching our goals in the future. We have heard the old sayings and they are true: “Rome wasn’t built in a day.”, “Patience is a virtue”, and so on.

Have patience, have appreciation of what we already have, and take time to help ourselves be the very best we can. Do these things and we will all reach our goals, but more importantly, we will enjoy our life every day.

【解析】目標(biāo)是貫穿我們一生的向?qū)。我們都有目?biāo),但很多人努力了沒(méi)有實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的目標(biāo),這是因?yàn)槲覀儧](méi)有把注意力放在當(dāng)前。如果我們做好當(dāng)前的工作,比別人更努力,更有耐心和懂得珍惜當(dāng)下,做好這一切,我們不僅會(huì)成功,還能享受生活中的每一天。

1Theme

考查總結(jié)概括能力。根據(jù)第一段的內(nèi)容表述,可知“為了達(dá)到我們的目標(biāo),我們應(yīng)該專(zhuān)注于我們所擁有的和我們現(xiàn)在的位置”,就是主題(theme),放在句首,第一個(gè)字母要大寫(xiě),故填Theme。

2mistakes

考查對(duì)上下文的分析和理解能力。根據(jù)第二段中的“I believe the mistake most of us make is that we do not focus on our present situation….”可知,以下幾點(diǎn)是常見(jiàn)的錯(cuò)誤。分析Common ____2____可知,本題填mistakes。

3appreciating

考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。根據(jù)第二段中的“We don’t take time to truly appreciate where we are today”。表格中的We do not spend the time truly ____3____ where we are today。因?yàn)楸揪渲锌疾榈氖?/span>spend time (in)doing sh. 可知,要用appreciating。

4promoted

考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。根據(jù)第四段中的第一句“What we should be doing is focusing on the job we are currently in now. Forget where we want to get to and just focus on the present.”及第三段中的第二句“Now most of us want a promotion.”分析這兩句可知,是讓我們做好今天的工作,不要只想()升職。表格中的Forget the thought of getting ____4_ promoted ___,get promoted.換了原文中用的want a promotion。

5try/do

考查對(duì)上下文的分析和理解能力。根據(jù)第四段中的第一句“What we should be doing is focusing on the job we are currently in now.”(我們所應(yīng)該做的就是把精力放在當(dāng)前的工作上。)也就是第5小題所說(shuō)的盡力做好(try /do one’s best)自己當(dāng)前的工作。故本空填try/do。

6colleagues/others

考查原詞再現(xiàn)。根據(jù)第四段中的“be the best we possibly can in our current job. Now this may mean further education to have the skills we currently do not have. It may mean working harder to produce better results than our colleagues. ”可知,要在現(xiàn)在的工作中要做到最好,意味著比其他的同事更努力去得到更好的結(jié)果。分析第6小題可知要比其他的同事更努力。故work harder than__6__中的第6空要填colleaguess/others

7devote

考查對(duì)上下文的分析和理解能力。第四段中的“It could simply be a change of attitude, such as stopping complaining and becoming a more devoted and supportive employee”可知,這是一種態(tài)度的變化,如不要抱怨,成為一個(gè)更加的忠誠(chéng)和支持的員工。分析stop complaining and ____7____ ourselves to our job.可知,本空填devote。因此本句中有固定搭配“devote…to …”,因此要填devote。

8Conclusion/ Summary

考查總結(jié)概括能力。分析可知,8小題是對(duì)最后的三段內(nèi)容的總結(jié)。故填Conclusion/ Summary。

9patient

考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。根據(jù)第5段中的“Have patience, have appreciation of what we already have, and take time to help ourselves be the very best we can.”(要有耐心,要感恩我們所擁有的。)分析If we are ____9____, grateful for what we have, and take time to help ourselves be the very best we can可知,Have patience=be patient(有耐心),因此第9小題填patient。

10succeed

考查總結(jié)概括能力。根據(jù)最后一句“Do these things and we will all reach our goals, but more importantly, we will enjoy our life every day.”(這些事情,我們都會(huì)達(dá)到我們的目標(biāo),但更重要的是,我們將享受我們的生活每一天。)分析句意可知,這樣做,我們不僅達(dá)到自己的目標(biāo)(即成功了succeed)還享受了我們的每一天。分析we can not only __10_____in the future, but also enjoy our life every day. 中要填動(dòng)詞succeed。

任務(wù)型閱讀要求考生根據(jù)閱讀文章提供的信息用恰當(dāng)?shù)脑~語(yǔ)完成與短文相關(guān)的圖表,并有一定字?jǐn)?shù)的限制。主要考察學(xué)生獲取信息的能力(對(duì)應(yīng)信息查找題)、組織信息的能力(對(duì)應(yīng)信息轉(zhuǎn)換題)和概括表達(dá)信息能力(對(duì)應(yīng)信息歸納題)。

任務(wù)型閱讀中的題型主要包括原詞重現(xiàn),固定搭配,詞性轉(zhuǎn)換,提煉概括四大類(lèi),四種題型難度指數(shù)依次上升。

解題技巧:1.信息查找題解題關(guān)鍵是根據(jù)問(wèn)題查找定位信息。常用方法是帶著問(wèn)題有意識(shí)地在關(guān)鍵處做標(biāo)記。

信息轉(zhuǎn)換題 解題關(guān)鍵是根據(jù)問(wèn)題查找定位信息,加工分析并轉(zhuǎn)換成另一種表達(dá)方式。

(1)詞形/性轉(zhuǎn)換,即練習(xí)將一種詞類(lèi)轉(zhuǎn)換成另一種詞類(lèi),主要包括動(dòng)詞與名詞轉(zhuǎn)換、形容詞與副詞轉(zhuǎn)換、形容詞與名詞轉(zhuǎn)換。解題方法很簡(jiǎn)單,只要在文中找到關(guān)鍵詞即可。例如:原文:“Have patience, have appreciation of what we already have, and take time to help ourselves be the very best we can.

轉(zhuǎn)換成表格中:If we are ____9__, grateful for what we have, and take time to help ourselves be the very best we can

分析原文,有耐心用的是Have patience ,而在第9小題,用的是系表結(jié)構(gòu),因此用patience的形容詞patient。可知, “Have patience, =be patient 有耐心,因此第9小題填patient

(2)句子結(jié)構(gòu)轉(zhuǎn)換做此類(lèi)題首先要理解題意,其次仔細(xì)比較原句和題目,明白出題人的意圖,只要找出題眼就不難得出答案。

原文:We don’t take time to truly appreciate where we are today

轉(zhuǎn)換成表格中:We do not spend the time truly ____3____ where we are today

分析這兩句話(huà)可知原文用的是動(dòng)詞appreciate+賓語(yǔ)從句。表格中appreciate要放在spend time (in) doing sth.的固定搭配中,因此要用appreciating.

3. 信息歸納題解題關(guān)鍵是根據(jù)問(wèn)題查找定位信息,找共性的東西。歸納詞的特征有:概括性,在最大程度上覆蓋欄內(nèi)信息;針對(duì)性,量體裁衣,大小適度;醒目性,簡(jiǎn)潔。如第8 小題就是對(duì)最后的三段內(nèi)容的總結(jié)。

【題目】閱讀理解
Twenty-five years ago, most young Britons wanted a career in law, to be a doctor, or, if they were creative enough, to take up singing. But today, things stand differently.
According to a survey by Tesco Mobile, a UK company, the “dream job” of young people aged between 16 and 25 in the UK is a video blogger, or “vlogger”. The survey, carried out among 1,002 people, found that as much as 40 percent of them put vlogger as their number one choice on a list of ideal careers.
This change is undoubtedly as a result of the Internet and social media. They have made it so much easier to reach audience of the world, without having to enter a career in show business in the traditional way.
In the past, the biggest stars were trained by the Hollywood studios; now, anyone with a computer camera can become a star. Vloggers are the big stars of today because they are normal people interacting with their fans about everyday life.”
However, what people see is only the bright side of being a vlogger and they fail to notice the fact that only those who are successful earn fame(名聲) and fortune. For every success there are hundreds of others who never get off the starting line. There are the dreams that come true and the dreams that remain dreams forever.
Although being vloggers is popular, some young people choose to follow careers that don't necessarily earn them fame, but allow them to make good use of the Internet to share their hobbies. Young Israeli David Leshaw, for example, runs a business called the Finishers Club. It's an online platform for runners to keep a record of their races. His job allows him to express his enthusiasm, and is always a learning experience. And that's enough for him.
(1)What is the passage mainly about?
A.Most young Britons choose to be vloggers as their job.
B.The Internet is influencing young Britions' career choice.
C.The Internet is taking the place of traditional studios.
D.Young Britons can not find jobs without the Internet.
(2)Why do more and more young Britons choose to be vloggers?
A.Vloggers can earn greater fame and more money on the Internet.
B.There is too much competition in the traditional show business.
C.The Internet makes it convenient to enter show business.
D.Anyone with a computer will surely become a star.
(3)What can we infer from the fifth paragraph?
A.Only a few vloggers can be successful.
B.A vlogger can not earn fame and fortune.
C.People often see the bright side of being a vlogger.
D.Dreams will always remain to be dreams.
(4)What do young people like David do on the Internet?
A.Learn from others.
B.Become an online hit.
C.Hold running races.
D.Mix jobs with hobbies.
