Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
Many people believe that they will be happy once they arrive at some specific goal they set for themselves. However, more often than not, once you arrive “there” you will still feel dissatisfied, and move your “there” vision to yet another point in the future. By always chasing (追尋) after another “there”, you are never really appreciating what you already have right “here”. It is important for human beings to keep sober-minded(頭腦清醒的) about the age-old drive to look beyond the place where you now stand. On one hand, your life is developed by your dreams and aspirations (抱負(fù)). On the other hand, these drives can pull you farther and farther from your enjoyment of your life right now.
To be grateful means you are thankful for what you have right now. Gratitude (感激) fills your heart with the joyful feeling and allows you to fully appreciate everything that arises on your path. As you try hard to keep your focus on the present moment, you can experience the full wonder of “here”.
There are many ways to develop gratitude. Here are just a few suggestions you may wish to try:
◆ Imagine what your life would be like if you lost all that you had. This will most surely remind you of how much you do appreciate it.
◆ Make a list each day of all that you are grateful for, so that you can stay conscious (有意識的) daily of your blessings. Do this especially when you are feeling as though you have nothing to feel grateful for. Or spend a few minutes before you go to sleep giving thanks for all that you have.
◆ Spend time offering assistance (幫助) to those who are less fortunate than you, so that you may gain a new perspective (觀點(diǎn)).
What really matters is that you create a space in your consciousness for appreciation for all that you have right now, so that you may live more happily in your present moment.

Answer 1

【答案】
（1）B
（2）D
（3）A
【解析】本文講述的是人們總是會被利益欲望驅(qū)使，不知道滿足，而心存感恩，你的心靈就充滿愉悅，你就能真正領(lǐng)會人生路上的種種體驗(yàn)。感恩之心需要經(jīng)常加強(qiáng)。

（1）B推理判斷題。第一段講述的是人總是疲于追逐一個又一個的彼岸，從未真正欣賞、珍惜已經(jīng)擁有的一切，不能接近生活在現(xiàn)實(shí)。故選B。

（2）D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段Gratitude (感激) fills your heart with the joyful feeling and allows you to fully appreciate everything that arises on your path. As you try hard to keep your focus on the present moment, you can experience the full wonder of “here”.可知心存感恩，你的心靈就充滿愉悅，你就能真正領(lǐng)會人生路上的種種體驗(yàn)。如果你努力把眼光鎖定在此時此刻，你就能感受它的美妙之處。故選D。

（3）A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章提出的三點(diǎn)建議：想象你的生活會像如果你失去你擁有的一切。這將是最肯定會提醒你有多么的欣賞它。每天列出所有你感激的事物，這樣你可以保持清醒。（幫助）花時間幫助那些沒有你那么幸運(yùn)的人，這樣你可能會獲得一個新的視角（觀點(diǎn)）。故選A。
