　　Ⅲ.阅读理解

　　(2016·北京海淀区第一学期期末)We’ve all met with something that slows us down，for example，the bump(颠簸)in the road，the setback.You just have to keep in mind that a setback is only temporary and greater things lie ahead.Therefore，keep moving forward，developing what you have，since you’ve already built a solid foundation on which you can rely.

　　It is easy just to quit，give up and ignore the hard work you have put into something.But we believe in the“two steps forward，one step back”philosophy(哲学).So how can you react when something doesn’t turn out as you’ve expected it to be?

　　First，be objective.Step back and look at the situation.Is your setback really that significant，or will it just require a little extra effort？Then，plan your next move.You can ask for help.Don’t be afraid or ashamed to do this.Frequently，people are more than willing to give you support and advice.You don’t have to be perfect；after all，nobody else is.Next，bounce back.Revaluate the goals you should have set for yourself at the beginning and retool(改组) them as necessary.Goals should be realistic and specific，but that doesn’t mean they can’t be flexible.Instead of looking at your project as a disaster or failure，view it with success.Concentrate on how great it will feel after it is finally done，after you have put your all into it.Instead of focusing on a possible unsatisfactory performance one single time，take a moment to sit back and reward yourself for all that you have accomplished.

　　Above all，don’t live with regrets.Success is never easy.It remains up to you whether you will give up，or fight through the tough battles to earn whatever you want.Keep reaching for your goals and you will achieve them.One small setback is nothing if you really want something and are willing to work for it.

　　1.According to the passage，the philosophy“two steps forward，one step back”means that when meeting with a setback________.

　　A.we are supposed to quit and ignore the hard work

　　B.we’d better think it over before making a decision

　　C.we should stop to think before taking further action

　　D.we are expected to look at things in an all-round way

　　解析:选C。句意理解题。从文章第三段第一句“First，be objective...plan your next move.”可推断出这句哲学名言的含义:在遇到挫折时，要审时度势，然后采取下一步行动，C项最符合这层意思。

　　2.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to________.

　　A.a performance

　　B.a success

　　C.a goal

　　D.a project

　　解析:选D。猜测词义题。根据文章第三段“Instead of looking at your project as a disaster or failure，...after you have put your all into it.”可知，看待你的目标时，要用成功的眼光。所以此处的“it”是指“project”。

　　3.When we suffer a setback，the most important thing to do is________.

　　A.to keep moving forward to your goals

　　B.to depend on other’s support and advice

　　C.to sit back and reward yourself for your success

　　D.to focus on a possible unsatisfactory performance

　　解析:选A。推理判断题。B项文章没有提及，故排除；从文章倒数第二段“Instead of focusing on a possible unsatisfactory performance one single time...and reward yourself for all that you have accomplished.”可判断C，D错误；根据文章第一段“You just have to keep in mind that a setback...keep moving forward，”可知当我们遇到挫折时，要继续努力去实现它，故A项正确。

　　4.What is the passage mainly about?

　　A.How to avoid the bumps.

　　B.How to deal with the setbacks.

　　C.Different attitudes to the setbacks.

　　D.Different suggestions on your goals.

　　解析:选B。主旨大意题。结合文章中心部分第二、三段，很容易看出全文是围绕如何克服挫折而展开论述的，故选B。
