A
I remember as a small child when we would have these gatherings where someone would come up and ask, “What are you going to be when you grow up?” Well, it 1being a cowboy or some super hero. Later it was a fireman, policeman, lawyer ... As I grew older my dreams of the future 2
. When, at last, I was in college, I made up my 3
to become a teacher(牧师) as my father.4I studied and prepared for that life. I reached 5
in the end and I was preaching nearly fulltime for much of my adult life. However, for many, there is a “thief” which goes around stealing our 6. Sometimes, the thief will come as a parent, a relative, or a friend, but the 7
thief is, so many times, just 8
. We find ourselves just about reaching the top, and this “small” 9inside says, “You will never make 10
.” “You can’t possibly do this.” And on and on the “small” voice 11
some kind of failure. Failure, though, is exactly how dreams are 12
. It is one of the most important tools we have, because it teaches us invaluable 13
. And, when we learn these lessons well, we are ready 14
success. The message I always gave my children was that you 15do anything your heart desires. Remember the saying, “Nothing is 16
to a willing heart.” There are 17
“overnight” successes, but with determination, it will come. Imagine yourself in the life you dream of 18
. Then in your heart, believe it 19
happen for you. Then work, work, work. You get the picture. So, be true to your dream, and don’t let anyone 20it from you—especially yourself.

D. borrow 答案与解析 本文概述本文讲述的是如何不让自己的梦想被别人偷走,尤其是自己。阻碍我们梦想实现的最大敌人其实就是我们自己。不要怀疑自己的能力,要相信自己,只要这样就没有实现不了的愿望,没有干不成功的事情。 1. D insist on坚持; keep on 持续; feel like想要,喜欢;start out开始,动身,启程。四者都可接动名词作宾语,但由句意可知,此处应为“起初的梦想是”,故正确答案为D。 2. A本句意思为“随着年龄的增长,我未来的梦想也发生了变化”。 3. B make up one’s mind to do sth. 为固定搭配,本句意思为“后来上大学的时候我决定要成为一名像我爸爸一样的牧师”。 4. B由上文可知此处应为表因果关系的连词。由于目标已经确定,所以我努力学习,并为此而奋斗。
5. C本句意为“我最终获得了成功,我几乎专职地……” 6. D由上文谈论梦想可知,此处应为“偷走我们的梦想”。 7. Abut表语义转折,告诉我们此处应为greatest,即“最大的敌人是我们自己”。 8. C 9. B noise嘈杂声,喧闹声,或令人厌烦的声音;sound指一切能听到的声音;voice指说话的声音;speech指演讲、讲话。由下文And on and on the “small” voice这一语境可知此处应为voice。 10. A make it是固定搭配,意思为“获得成功”。 11. B由句意可知此处应为可“预测,预见”某种失败。 12. D此句意思为“然而,失败往往是实现梦想的必经之路”。realize one’s dream,此处表示被动。 13. C teach sb. ...lessons 给某人以……的教训。 14. B be ready for success 为成功作好了准备。 15. A本句的意思为“你们能做好你们内心希望做的任何事情”。 16. D本句意为“对于一个有意志力的人来说,任何事情都是有可能的”。 17. D本句意为“没有一夜之间获得成功的,但只要有决心,就能成功”。 18. B living这一答案的选取与前面的the life有关,即live ... life, the life后面是一个定语从句。
19. A本句意为“在你的内心,坚信将来这会发生”。 20. C本句意为“坚守你的梦想,不要让别人,尤其是你自己,把梦想偷走”。
