Five Things Ambitious People Never Say

◆“I can’t do this—it’s too hard.”

Ambitious people never limit themselves or undervalue hard work with these words. 【1】 .

◆“I’m not good enough.”

Ambitious people never say they are not good enough. Saying you are not good enough holds you back and makes you easy to quit when things get a little rough. And quitting when things get a little rough is never a good thing. The most successful people in the world are not quitters. 【2】 Be confident and believe in yourself, or no one else will.

◆“I won’t make it through the obstacles(障礙).”

Challenges and obstacles are tests of your resolve(決心) and desire to succeed. 【3】 They say they will make it because they know better things lie ahead-the sun always shines after the storm.

◆ 【4】

The only time people won’t take you seriously is if you don’t take yourself seriously. Insisting that people won’t take you seriously is an excuse not to do what you know you should do. Ambitious people never say these words. Start respecting yourself and honoring what you do and people will respect and take you seriously.

◆“I’m going to fail for sure.”

【5】 It can teach you valuable lessons and redirect you to the right path. Ambitious people don’t say they are going to fail and let that stop them from trying. They challenge the fear of failure by taking calculated risks(甘冒風(fēng)險) because they know the only time you are truly defeated is when you don’t try at all.

【解析】

試題分析:本文講述的是有抱負(fù)的人不會說的五件事情。

【1】D考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)此段的小標(biāo)題“I can’t do this—it’s too hard.”：我不能做這個，它太難了。因為有抱負(fù)的人不會說的五件事情，所以此處應(yīng)該是有抱負(fù)的人可以做。故選D。

【2】B考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)全文以及小標(biāo)題所提及，世界上有些人遇到困難就放棄，與此相反的是，有抱負(fù)的人都是會相信自己的能力可以解決問題。故選B。

【3】A考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)小標(biāo)題所述我不能通過障礙解決問題。有抱負(fù)的人不會這么說，所以他們可以通過困難解決問題。故選A。

【4】E考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)此段第一句The only time people won’t take you seriously is if you don’t take yourself seriously. 如果你不看重自己別人也不會看重你。可知此處小標(biāo)題應(yīng)該是人們都不都重視我。故選E。

【5】C考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)后文It can teach you valuable lessons and redirect you to the right path. 它可以教給你有價值的課程和幫你指正確的道路。加上后文的failure可知，此處的它指的是failure，因為有抱負(fù)的人不會說，所以此處應(yīng)該是失敗會導(dǎo)致不好的結(jié)果或與之接近的意思。故選C。
