The work was slow and they were still falling, so they had to drop some whole bags of sand. One of them fell on an icy lake and made a black hole in the ice. At last they pulled the box into the basket. It was still snowing; so they climbed to get away from the snow. They rose to 5,100 meters! Everything became icy.

Successful people imagine how their life should be and set lots of goals. 17 Its 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 can be found on a map. She can drive straight there surely without any wasted time of wrong turns. The other driver has no goal, or destination or map. She starts off at t he same time from the same place as the first driver, but she drives aimlessly around, never getting anywhere, just using up gas. Which driver do you want to be? 18 They decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. Unsuccessful people usually just let life happen by accident. Goals arent difficult to set and they arent difficult to reach. 19 You are the one who must decide what to achieve and in what direction to aim your life. 20 Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power. Like a contract with yourself, they are harder to ignore or forget. Also when you write your goals in a particular way, you are able to make yourself continuously aware of situations that will bring you nearer to your goal. AWinners in life set goals and follow them through. BResearch tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it. CIts up to you to find out what your goals really are. DIts difficult for a driver to reach his destination without a map. EBy setting goals you are taking control of your life. FBecause goals can help you do, be, and experience everything you want in life. GBecause everybody should have a goal in his mind 第二部语言知识运用(共两节,满分25 分)第一节完形填空(共15 小题,每小题1 分,满分 15 分)名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 5 页,共 8 页 - - - - - - - - - 6 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A,B,C 和 D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。The computer plays an important part in our everyday life.
