How to Develop Courage by Overcoming Daily Fears
Sometimes when thinking of courage, we think it only applies to rare and uncommon situations. Yet our ordinary lives can also be full of courage, even if we are not facing the end of a gun, a wild animal or a dangerous criminal. Courage doesn't just mean doing heroic acts. In fact, where there is fear on a daily basis, there are opportunities for you to show your courage. Here are some suggestions to develop courage by overcoming daily fears.
● Recognizing your fears.
By realizing that you're fearful, you are more likely to get to the bottom of what your fear is. You might come to understand that you're afraid of failing or taking chances. You may be fearful simply because you don't have confidence in yourself. The key is not to dwell on your fear, but rather to understand what it is what you're worried about.
● Ask yourself what is the worst that can happen.
If you hesitate to take action, ask yourself this: What's the worst that can happen? Then prepare to accept it. Then go on to improve on the worst. Is failure the worst thing that can happen? No, absolutely not. Doing nothing is actually the worst thing that can happen. When you take no action, you are assured of getting nowhere.
● Take action.
Courage comes from taking action. You need to act to overcome your fear. Your action may put you into discomfort, but you have to just do it. And your action can prevent you from being stuck.
●
To build up your confidence, you need to do the same thing over and over again. Soon you will discover that less courage is needed because you have already gained mastery. You are able to move decisively forward.
A. Share your fears with others.
B. Practice, practice and practice.
C. So you are already in a comfort zone.
D. You cannot think courage comes just in one day.
E. Each undesired result is just one more step towards your goal.
F. Finding out what is truly holding you back.
G. You needn't wait for an emergency to occur to develop courage.

【答案】G；F；E；D；B
【解析】文章主要是描述每天都會有害怕的產(chǎn)生，與此同時就可以培養(yǎng)出克服害怕的勇氣，文章給讀者提出了一些產(chǎn)生勇氣的建議。

（1）G根據(jù)前文的描述，每天的生活中都充滿了勇氣，它并不僅僅是要面對危險時候做出的英雄行為，故此處銜接為不需要等到緊急情況，答案為G。

（2）F根據(jù)前一句的描述，可知你有可能知道自己到底害怕什么，因此緊接著描述的是查明是什么在阻礙著你，更和后句你開始知道是失敗意思上配起來了。所以答案是F。

（3）E前一句說失敗不是發(fā)生的最壞的事情，因此銜接的是每一個不期待的結(jié)果就是邁向你目標的一步，所以答案是E。

（4）D前一句說勇氣來自于行動。此句結(jié)構(gòu)中有comes，正好對應D項中的comes，意思上也能接起來，所以答案是D。

（5）B根據(jù)本段中you need to do the same thing over and over again可知是要你不斷重復地去訓練，練習。所以答案是B。

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
Most people say “yes” much more readily than “no”.
A friend is moving house this weekend and would like some help, and you agree. But, what you really wanted was a couple of quiet days relaxing at home. Or a roommate spends the entire weekends playing video games and wants to borrow your homework for “reference”. But, you've just finished it after taking a whole day to work hard.
Many people say “yes” to those kinds of requests. They tend not to consider their own interests and feelings, and are often angry with themselves afterwards.
Saying “no” requires courage and considerable practice, in fact, according to psychologists.
“Everyone wants to be liked,” says Gabriel Steinki, a German psychologist. “Saying ‘no' risk losing the affection of the person asking the favor or even a job.”
The result is that many people say “yes” just for keeping the peace. But experts say this is regrettable. Anyone should have the right to say “no”.
In fact, rejecting a request can even help to strengthen a relationship because it expresses a true feeling.
But, for people used to agreeing to every request, changing can be a long and uncomfortable learning process.
Most people believe that “If I say ‘no', I'll lose the affection of the person. But the affection is important to me.” This way of thinking can be replaced by this “If he only likes me because I always do what suits him, then the price of his affection is too high in the long term.”
Steinki says the key is talking to the other person to find a mutual(相互的) solution. “One needs to present the situation from one's own point of view, and to suggest how the situation can be dealt with to the advantage of both parties. The other person must have the feeling that his interests are being considered.”
When the refusal is not accepted, Steinki advises giving the reasons calmly again until the person gets the message.
（1）Most people say “yes” much more readily than “no” because ____________.
A.they don't care about their own interests and feelings
B.they don't know they will regret afterwards
C.they have already been used to saying “yes”
D.they care more about others' affection
（2）According to the writer, what should you do if you want to refuse the other person's request?
A.Just say you can't help him.
B.Say sorry to him.
C.Refuse him clearly.
D.Talk to the other person to find a mutual way.
（3）According to the writer, what should you do if your refusal is not accepted?
A.Say yes to him.
B.Repeat your reason for his acceptance.
C.Just go away.
D.Say no to him.
（4）What is the best title of the passage?
A.You Need Courage to Say “No”
B.“Yes” More than “No”
C.Nobody Has the Right to Say “No”
D.It's Easy to Say “Yes”

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
What is success? I am not going to try to explain success. I think a precise meaning is impossible! Is it winning a Gold Medal at the Olympic Games or winning Wimbledon, or being awarded a Nobel Prize? What else? I believe personal success could be anything at all- it does not have to involve public recognition. Who is more successful? A millionaire who is unhappy, or an unnoticed person, who has led a simple, quiet, sincere and happy life? The simplest definition of success, I think, is “to set out to do something and to succeed in doing it.
The first step on the road to success starts with belief. Believe you can succeed and you will. Achieving success in whatever endeavor(努力)you choose may be the goal of life; because it gives you freedom from worry. Could that be?
Success means different things to every one of us. Some people believe it is measured in financial term; others believe it is helping others rather than helping themselves. However, most people are motivated to a great extend by public recognition. How many people are really happy? How many people are really doing what they want to with their lives? Incidentally, to imagine makes us different from animals.
Most important of all, I believe success is a matter of personal growth. If every day you are developing or growing just a millimeter, I believe one is successful. Just being a slightly better person each day for me is success. I've got a very long way to go them!
Finally, always remember success is a process and is not simply a matter of arriving at a destination. It's the journey that really matters. Success is what you become in the often very difficult and dangerous journey down the river of life.
（1）What is personal success according to the author?
A.Winning public recognition
B.Being an unhappy millionaire
C.Something impossible to define simply
D.Succeeding in doing what you want
（2）Which plays an important role in your success?
A.Intelligence
B.Confidence
C.Wealth
D.Kindness
（3）According to he text, humans are different from animals in_______.
A.belief
B.freedom
C.imagination
D.success
（4）What can be the best title for the text?
A.What is success
B.No true success
C.How to be successful
D.Success is reaching a destination
