Question

Two runners stand side by side at the starting line of a race. Both look every strong and fast. 1 one runner speeds ahead and wins the race. The other falls behind.
Some sportsmen can reach great goals2 the achievement of an Olympic gold medal while others3live up to their promise. What kind of 4 before a race or other event makes the 5?
Everyone knows that sportsmen work out to strengthen(加強) their 6. But research shows that strengthening the mind may be just as 7. Careful study shows that the best sportsmen win 8 because they think they can win.
Thinking positive(樂觀的) thoughts seems to give possibility for 9 in sports. People who say to themselves over and over, “I know I can do this,” often find they have the 10 to win. On the other hand, people who think “I can’t win” often 11.
One procedure(步驟)that helps many sportsmen is creating 12 in the mind. They are told to think of each 13 they must make to win. Some use pictures that are more fanciful. One skater liked to 14 a star bursting inside her, 15 her with energy. Another sportsman who wanted to feel 16 pictured himself as a 17 floating(漂浮) in the air.
Next time you want to do something well, try training your 18 to help you. Perhaps a teacher or other instructor can help you plan your training. If you imagine yourself doing better, you may soon see 19 in what you 20 can do. Positive thinking and picture created in your mind can help you win!

Answer 1

CDBAB CACAB ABABC ABBAB
通讀全文，本文是說明文。全文通過運動員賽跑為例說明積極思維，想象成功在取得成功方面的重大作用。
1.C Both look strong and fast 是這兩個運動員的共同點，空后的句子的意思是，有的成功了，有的失敗了，因此前后間為轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。
2.D B，C有較大干擾性，分析空后的短語我們可以知道，such as 后的中心詞是achievement, 它是運動員所要達(dá)到的目標(biāo)(goals)而不是獎牌(medals)和獎勵(prizes)。
3.B “有的人一生都沒有達(dá)到自己的愿望�！眕romise在這里用作名詞，意思是“希望、愿望”。
4.A從空后的before a race or another event我們可以看出，作者在這里問，在運動或其它項目之前，人們需要作什么準(zhǔn)備。
5.B the difference在此指代上文的some athletes can reach great goals…及others never
live up to their promise。
6.C strengthen the body與下文的strengthening the mind 相對。
7.A“然而研究表明增強心理(與增強體力)同等重要�！甭�(lián)系上下文我們可以看出空后省略了as strengthening their bodies。
8.C此空較難選出。作者指出，研究表明對運動員來說增強心理與增強體力同等重要，接著他用careful study 進(jìn)一步說明這個理論。因此說，好的運動員能夠贏部分是因為他們認(rèn)為自己能贏。
9.A“朝積極方向思維在運動上能給予成功的可能�！北揪涑薪由隙味鴣怼�
10.B D有較大干擾性。作者在前文指出了運動員增強心理對成功的重要性，在這里他繼續(xù)解釋這一觀點——那些認(rèn)為自己能贏的有贏的優(yōu)勢。advantage在這里的意思是“優(yōu)勢”。
11.A本空可以從上一句得到答案依據(jù)。
12.B從下文Some use pictures that are more fanciful 可得到答案依據(jù)。
13.A選擇本空要與空后的定語從句聯(lián)系起來，make each move to do sth.意思是“采取一切行動做某事”。本句的意思是“他們被告訴要采取一切可以采取的行動去獲勝。”
14.B聯(lián)系上下文，a star bursting inside her 純屬于一種想象(imagination)。
15.C星星在她體內(nèi)迸裂后給她注滿了能量。
16.A從空后的pictured himself as a 17 (bird) floating in the air 我們可以推知，運動員通過想象一只鳥輕輕滑翔在空中來鎮(zhèn)定自己。
17.B從空后的floating in the air 得此答案。
18.B全文講的是心理作用(mind)在成功中的重要性。
19.A如果你想你做得更好，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)在你所能做的事情上會有大的改觀。
20.B從前文我們知道心理在成功上起一定作用。因此你所想象的事情必須是你確實(really)能做的，這樣對你做的事情才能有幫助。
