Question

【題目】Change is scary. 【1】 It can go hand in hand with the fear that we might hurt someone else if we think about ourselves. The truth is that you’re so much more courageous than you give yourself credit for and far stronger than you realize. Here are some ways that you can use to help yourself make the process of creating change more manageable.

Make change into small bite size pieces. 【2】 Remember that as long as you attempt to take regular practice towards your goal, such as eating more healthily every day, or walking twenty minutes a day, youre heading in the right direction to make changes.

Form a habit of keeping a diary every day. Writing a journal every night before going to bed can effectively help you cope with the emotional impact of the change process. Go to grab a pen or pencil and remember a journal is not for being neat and tidy with good spelling. 【3】 .

Rest is essential to success. Have a rest and take timeout to build your energy. 【4】 If we dont give ourselves time to rest, we just end up burning out by the constant striving and worry. As we dont have the energy to keep going, we have to give up!

【5】 Just accept it! I’m sorry to say that unless some people are really secure in themselves and truly happy in their own life, they’re never going to like your changes. This has nothing to do with whether they love you or not. They are just for self-preservation! Therefore, give them a little time to adjust and get used to it.

A. It is a step into the unknown.

B. It’s not being lazy to have time out.

C. No one else is going to like your changes.

D. Don’t try to eat the elephant in one sitting.

【解析】

試題分析：文章教會我們怎樣改變，通過什么樣的方式去改變。

【1】A由 Change is scary. 36 It can go hand in hand with the fear that we might hurt someone else if we think about ourselves.改變是很嚇人的，如果我們只考慮自己我們很可能就傷害了別人，所以改變可能是未知的，所以可以推出A。

【2】D由 Make change into small bite size pieces.改變要從小事做起，所以D選項“我們不能一口吃進(jìn)去一頭大象”正確。

【3】G前文是學(xué)會寫日記，日記是一個私人的空間，所以G符合題意。

【4】B由前文的Have a rest and take timeout to build your energy.休息是可以養(yǎng)好你的精力，所以我們不應(yīng)該懶于休息，所以選B。

【5】C由后文 40 Just accept it!可知 沒有人會喜歡你的改變，所以我們要接受，故選C。
