　　When something goes wrong，it can be very satisfying to say，“Well, it's so­and­so's fault.” or “I know I'm late，but it's not my fault；the car broke down.” It is probably not your fault，but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation，you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner's key to success.

　　Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don't rely on the person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.

　　This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don't have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is”. Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stop on for success.

　　1．According to the passage, winners________.

　　A．deal with problems rather than blame others

　　B．meet with fewer difficulties in their lives

　　C．have responsible and able colleagues

　　D．blame themselves rather that others

　　答案　A　[推理判断题。根据文中第二段和第三段开头句Winners are great at overcoming problems.和This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills...可知成功者总是解决问题而不是责备别人。]

　　2．The underlined word “remedy” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to________.

　　A．avoidB．accept

　　C．improveD．consider

　　答案　C　[词义猜测题。根据第一段最后两句if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner's key to success.可知。]

　　A．find a better way to handle the problem

　　B．blame him for his lack of responsibility

　　C．tell him to find the cause of the problem

　　Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素) three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if that weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance.

　　After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.

　　Jason Swencki's son, Kody, was diagnosed with type diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children's forums(论坛) together most evenings.“Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over，” says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. “They know what he's going through, so he doesn't feel alone.”

　　Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.

　　These days, Thomas's main focus is his charity(慈善机构), Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses. Fight－it.org has raised about $23,000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.

　　Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full­time job waiting tables. “Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure，” says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar's original members. “But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now.”

　　【语篇解读】　本篇为励志故事类人物传记短文，讲述了一位糖尿病人勇于面对病痛并以积极心态去帮助别人的事迹，令人感动。

　　5. Which of the following is TRUE of Christopher Thomas?

　　A．He needs to go to the doctor every day.

　　B．He studies the leading cause of diabetes.

　　C．He has a positive attitude to this disease.

　　D．He encourages diabetics by writing articles.

　　答案　C　[细节理解题。通读全文可知，Christopher Thomas对于自己的疾病采取了积极的态度，所以C项正确。A项与Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素) three times a day for the rest of his life不符；B项与文中的Thomas开办网站，与病人及其家属分享有关的信息和资源不符；D项提到的写作是Thomas的专职工作，而他的志愿工作才是运作Fight It 这个慈善机构。]

　　6．Diabeitcrockstar.com was created for________.

　　A．diabetics to communicate

　　B．volunteers to find jobs

　　C．children to amuse themselves

　　D．rock stars to share resources

　　答案　A　[细节理解题。根据a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources可知，Diabeitcrockstar.com 是一个供糖尿病患者交流的网站，故A项正确。]

　　A．feel lonely because of his illness

　　B．benefits from diabeticrockstar.com

　　C．helps create the online kid's forums

　　D．writes children's stories online

　　答案　B　[推理判断题。根据Father and son visit the online children's forums(论坛) together most evenings.“Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over，” says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers.“They know what he's going through, so he doesn't feel alone.” 可知B项正确。]

　　A．It helps the diabetics in financial difficulties.

　　B．It organizes parties for volunteers once a year.

　　C．It offers less expensive medicine to diabetics.

　　D．It owns a well­known medical website.

　　答案　A　[细节理解题。根据Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses. Fight－it.org has raised about $23，000—in products and in cash.可知， Fight it 在经济上帮助其他糖尿病患者，故A项正确。 ]
