2015云南省昭通市高考英语一轮阅读理解训练（1）及答案阅读理解-athere is, for many of us, a moment in life when we make a choice that changes us forever. this moment marks a turning point, when we realize that the life were living is not a mirror of who we really are.for some, the moment comes as a result of something dramatic: the sudden loss of a job, or the death of a loved one. for others, they have to deal with difficult situations, such as financial hardship. in these challenging times, its more critical(关键时刻的) than ever for us to seize the possibility of positive change. as i travel and talk to people about their lives, i often see a distant, vacant look in their eyes - a look that says “im so busy trying to survive my life that no soul left to live it”. as a result, we end up feeling lonely. yet we keep on going the way weve been going. we tolerate high levels of stress at work, take important relationships for granted, or put our health needs on hold. we get so caught up in the details of living that our busyness becomes an excuse from the inner voice that begs us to listen. when you finally pay attention to that little voice and begin to make even small changes, you will slowly improve yourself. to start positive change, you need the power of your mind. ive come up with a five-step strategy that will help you. you will be able to identify what you want and then go after it. its easier than you might think.1. reset your happiness set point. dont limit yourself! when i decided that i wanted more control over my life, i set goals in physical, emotional, financial, professional, material, and play. i challenged myself to consider every possible choice. imagine things youve never believed you could achieve. dont let your past determine your future.2. trust your courage. too often, when youre first learning to take control of your life, you doubt yourself. its important to develop a strong connection with your inner guidance system. ive heard many stories about the persistent voice inside your head.3. take action. once you have set goals, adjusted your beliefs, and got ready, you can start making things happen. again, turn to those people you respect - the ones achieving what you desire - for support and guidance. they will both inspire you and give you practical advice on what steps you need to take.4. have faith. believe that the positive energy of grace will support your efforts to improve your life. when youve done all you can, let go and trust that the right result will occur. when we have faith, we give up the need to be in control, and we set ourselves up to actually enjoy the process of change.5. be patient. this can be the toughest step. its not easy to trust that your life will improve in a best way. remind yourself of the benefits of patience. in my experience, those life changes are always worth the wait.1. what does the author intend to say in the second paragraph?a. the start of some turning points in ones life is caused by crisis.b. loss of a job or the death of a loved one are all dramatic things.c. no one can live a life without any turning points.d. no one can predict his future of being good or not.2. in the authors opinion, we should _.a. adjust our beliefs from time to timeb. always control ourselves for anythingc. keep on going the way we are goingd. seize the challenging times to live an active life3. the author suggests that when setting your happiness set points, you should _.a. know the limitation of your set pointb. build self-confidence without doubtc. limit your goals in different ways d. consider every possible choice with care4. which of the following is not true according to the passage?a. when youve done all you can, you may believe that the right result will occur. b. when you set goals, and take action, it is possible to make things happen.c. when you first learn to take charge of your life, you will always doubt yourself.d. if things do not happen in a way that is best, patience is always worth the wait. 【参考答案】14、adbc阅读理解-b“to be or not to be”outside the bible, these six words are the most famous in all the literature of the worldthey were spoken by hamlet when he was thinking aloud, and they are the most famous words in shakespeare because hamlet was speaking not only for himself but for every thinking man and womanto be or not to be-to live or not to live, to live richly and abundantly and eagerly, or to live dully and meanly and scarcelya philosopher once wanted to know whether he was alive or not, which is a good question for everyone to put to himself occasionallyhe answered it by saying, “i think, therefore i am”but the best definition of existence i ever saw was one written by another philosopher who said, “to be is to be in relations” if this is true, then the more relations a living thing has, the more it is aliveto live abundantly means simply to increase the range and intensity （强度） of our relationsunfortunately, we are so constituted that we get to love our routinebut other than our regular occupation, how much are we alive? if you are interested only in your regular occupation, you are alive only to that extentso far as other things are concerned-poetry and prose, music, pictures, sports unselfish friendships, politics, international affairs-you are deadon the contrary, it is true that every time you acquire a new interest-even more, a new accomplishment-you increase your power of lifeno one who is deeply interested in different kinds of subjects can remain unhappythe real pessimist is the person who has lost interestbacon said that a man dies as often as he loses a friendbut we gain new life by contacts with new friends, and new ideas and thoughts, toowhere your thoughts are, there will be your life alsoif your thoughts are limited only to your business, only to your physical welfare, only to your narrow circle of the town in which you live, then you live in a narrow restricted lifebut if you are interested in the characters of a good novel, then you are living with those highly interested people; if you listen intently to fine music, you are always away from immediate surroundings and living in a world of passion and imaginationto be or not to be -
