题目列表(包括答案和解析)
Goals can help you do, be and experience everything you want in life. Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen.
Successful and happy people have an idea of how their life should be and they set lots of goals to help them succeed. By setting goals you are taking control of your life. It’s like having a map to show you where you want to go. Think of it this way. There are two drivers. One has a destination in mind which is laid out for her on a map. She can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turns. The other driver has no goal or destination or map. She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but she drives without an aim around, never getting anywhere, just using up gas and oil. Which driver do you want to be？
Winners in life set goals and follow through on them. Winners decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident. Goals aren’t difficult to set―and they aren’t difficult to reach. It’s up to you to find out what your goals and ideals（理想）really are.
Research tells us that when we write a goal down, we are more likely to achieve. Written goals can be reviewed regularly，and have more power. Like a contract with yourself, they are harder to neglect（忽视）or forget. Also when you write your goals in a particular way, you are able to make yourself be continuously alert（警觉）to situations that will further your goals.

What do you want to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? How about an ice-cream taster?
Yes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice-cream. Just ask John Harrison, an “Official Taste Tester” for the past 21 years. Testing helps manufacturers to be sure of a product’s quality. During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream — as well as for developing over 75 flavors (味道）.
Some people think that it would be easy to do this job: after all, you just have to like ice cream, right? No — there’s more to the job than that, says Harrison, who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a career in this “cool” field.
In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses 60 ice-cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12℉. Harrison explains, “You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir it, creating ice-cream soup.”
While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one on its appearance. “Tasting begins with the eyes,” he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself, “Does the product have the color expected from that flavor?” Next it’s time to taste!
Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors, and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy — working at one cool job.

Five Smart Habits of Successful Children
Have you ever wondered what actions make the most difference in your children's lives?
Children don't have to be smart to succeed. They don't have to be born rich and famous. All they need is the right outlook and a few smart habits.
Successful children make friends wherever they go. Children who learn to get along with others from an early age are more successful in life. 1 Without them, we'd have no support. Whatever the goal, friends are needed to achieve it. Do your children a favor by encouraging social interaction early.
2 They don't just hope for success; they are certain of it. They don't complain. They have a smile on their face and get on with the business of living. They feel pain just like the other children. The difference is that they don't let it hinder(妨碍) their progress.
Successful children become successful because they never give up. They fall. They fail. 3 The difference is that they use their mistakes the way they were intended. They embrace failure because it pushes them forward.
Successful children ignore the naysayer (反对者). They don't worry about what other people think. They follow the path that is right for them, regardless of gossip. 4 They are too busy working towards their goals. They do have concern for the feelings of others.
Successful children share their success. They don't forget all the people who helped them get where they were going. 5 They don't criticize（批评） and reject（抛弃） those who are struggling. They take them by the hand and guide them up the ladder.
A．Do you want to be a successful child?
B．Social skills are vital（重要的） to human survival.
C．Successful children look on the bright side.
D．They make just as many mistakes as the other children.
E. They take the time to teach others what they have learned.
F. They don't engage in gossip either, because they don't have time for it.
G. In fact, they don't even have to become rich and famous.
Thomas Edison tried two thousand different materials to make the light bulb. When none worked successfully, his assistant __36_, “All our work is in vain. We have learned nothing.”
Thomas Edison replied very __37_, “Oh, we have come a long way and we have _38__ a lot. We now know that there are two thousand materials which we cannot _39__ to make a good light bulb.”
If you learn from your mistakes, then you are _40__. If you learn from someone else’s mistakes, then you are a genius. Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines __41__ daily and failure is nothing more than a few small __42_ repeated daily.
How __43_ the above lines are! Success takes __44_. We’ll make mistakes _45__ we do things in too much of a hurry. When we do not practice disciplines in life, we don’t build enough confidence to __46__ new and challenging tasks which are important and matter in life. Our confidence __47__ what we think of ourselves and whether we believe in ourselves. We are all born with exceptional __48__, but only a few really _49___ their true potentials and make efforts in life and the others just lead a(n) _50__ life. Do you want to be exceptional?
Success is a fruit which everyone wants to _51__, but it is not found everywhere and no one can __52_ it without serious efforts.
Those who want to succeed will find a way; those who don’t will find a(n) _53__!
Success depends on previous __54__, and without it we will end in failure.
When you are __55__, please enjoy it and give your hand to others who want to accomplish something.
