【題目】Once when I was facing a decision that involved high risk, I went to a friend. He looked at me for a moment, and then wrote a sentence containing the best advice I’ve ever had: Be bold and brave and mighty forces will come to your aid.

Those words made me see clearly that when I had fallen short in the past, it was seldom because I had tried and failed. It was usually because I had let fear of failure stop me from trying at all. On the other hand, whenever I had plunged into deep water, forced by courage or circumstance, I had always been able to swim until I got my feet on the ground again.

Boldness means a decision to bite off more than you can eat. And there is nothing mysterious about the mighty forces. They are potential powers we possess: energy, skill, sound judgment, creative ideas even physical strength greater than most of us realize.

Admittedly, those mighty forces are spiritual ones. But they are more important than physical ones. A college classmate of mine, Tim, was an excellent football player, even though he weighed much less than the average player. “In one game I suddenly found myself confronting(面對) a huge player, who had nothing but me between him and our goal line,” said Tim. “I was so frightened that I closed my eyes and desperately threw myself at that guy like a bullet— and stopped him cold.”

Boldness a willingness to extend yourself to the extreme—is not one that can be acquired overnight. But it can be taught to children and developed in adults. Confidence builds up. Surely, there will be setbacks and disappointments in life; Boldness in itself is no guarantee of success. But the person who tries to do something and fails is a lot better off than the person who tries to do nothing and succeeds.

So, always try to live a little bit beyond your abilities—and you’ll find your abilities are greater than you ever dreamed.

【1】Why was the author sometimes unable to reach his goal in the past?

A. He faced huge risks.

B. Fear prevented him from trying.

C. He lacked mighty forces.

D. Failure blocked his way to success.

【2】What is the implied meaning of the underlined part?

A. Act slightly above your abilities.

B. Swallow more than you can digest.

C. Develop more mysterious powers.

D. Learn to make creative decisions.

【3】What was especially important for Tim’s successful defense in the football game?

A. His physical strength. B. His basic skill.

C. His spiritual force. D. His real fear.

【4】What can be learned from Paragraph 5?

A. Boldness can be gained little by little.

B. Confidence grows more rapidly in adults.

C. Trying without success is meaningless.

D. Repeated failure creates a better life.

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。1less red meat and more fiber, less saturated fat (飽和脂肪) and more fruit and vegetables, right? Wrong, according to a controversial new book by nutritionist Zoe Harcombe. In the book, Harcombe charts her careful journey of research into studies that underpin (鞏固) dietary advice—and her myth(誤區(qū))breaking conclusions are surprising.Myth2.“Real fat is not bad for us”says Harcombe.“It’s manmade fats we should be demonizing.”Why do we have this idea that meat is full of saturated fat? In a 100g pork chop, there is 2.3g of unsaturated fat and 1.5g of saturated fat.Myth: We should eat more fiber.For three decades, we have eaten fiber into our bodies to help us feel full and keep our digestive systems moving.“3, says Harcombe.The advice to eat more fiber is put forward along with the theory that we need to clean our digestive systems. But essential minerals are absorbed from food while it is in the intestines (腸道), so why do we want to wash everything out? Concentrate on not putting bad foods in.Myth: You need to eat five portions of fruit and vegetables a day.“Fiveaday is the most well-known piece of nutritional advice” says Harcombe.“You’d think it was based on firm evidence of health benefit.4.‘Fiveaday’started as a marketing campaign by 25 fruit and vegetable companies and the American National Cancer Institute in 1991.There was no evidence for any cancer benefit.”Myth: Fruit and vegetables are the most nutritious things to eat.Apparently not Harcombe allows that vegetables are a great addition to the diet—if served in butter to deliver the fatsoluble(dissolved) vitamins they contain—but natural sugar, the fruit sugar in fruit, goes straight to the liver and is stored as fat.“5, says Harcombe, who adds “Vitamins and minerals in animal foods—meat, fish, eggs and dairy products—beat those in fruit hands down.”

A. Think again

B. This is not a good idea

C. Fat is bad for us

D. Fruit is best avoided by those trying to lose weight

E. Want to lose weight? Don’t trust these

F. We need take more exercise

G. We think we know what to eat
