When writing the stry f yur life, dn’t let smene else hld the pen. 1 Here are sme ideas fr writing a life stry:
Live happily in yur wn way. Yu are nt in this wrld t live up t the expectatins f thers, nr shuld yu feel that thers are here t live up t yurs. What success means t each f us is ttally different. Success t thers may mean being a gd parent. Success is nly abut spending yur life happily in yur wn way.
2 There are thusands f pssible paths up the muntain f life, s it really desn’t matter which path yu start ff n. The nly mistake is by wasting time running arund at the base f the muntain, telling everyne that yur life path is wrng.
Embrace (信奉) new ideas, lessns, and challenges. Smetimes grwing up means grwing apart frm ld habits, relatinships, and situatins, and finding smething new that truly mves yu. 3 Yu shuld lk very clearly int the unknwn and enjy it. Because when yu cme in cntact with things that yu dn’t knw, that’s when yu’re learning, grwing, and truly living.
Live hnrably thrugh kindness. If yu live hnrably, n matter hw ld yu get, yu’ll never lse yur beauty. 4
Spend quality time with peple yu lve. 5 Peple dn’t live frever. Appreciate what yu have, wh lves yu and wh cares fr yu. Yu’ll never knw hw much they mean until the day when they are n lnger beside yu. Smeday yu will either regret nt ding s, r yu will say, “I’m glad I did. ”

F. And remember, there is n better thing than reaching ut and hlding the hand f smene in need.
G. Make wise chices every day because the way yu live each day is a sentence in the stry f yur life.
【文章大意】這是一篇說明文。短文就如何過好自己的一生向讀者提出了幾點(diǎn)建議。
1. 【解析】選G。由“When writing the stry f yur life, dn’t let smene else hld the pen. ______ Here are sme ideas fr writing a life stry”可知, 譜寫自己人生篇章的時(shí)候, 不要把筆交給別人。以下是譜寫人生篇章的一些想法。所以該空起到承上啟下的作用。故G選項(xiàng)“每天都要做出明智的選擇, 因?yàn)槟忝刻斓纳罘绞骄褪悄闳松轮械囊痪湓挕狈项}意。故G選項(xiàng)切題。
2. 【解析】選C。由“There are thusands f pssible paths up the muntain f life, s it really desn’t matter which path yu start ff n. The nly mistake is by wasting time running arund at the base f the muntain, telling everyne that yur life path is wrng. ”可知, 通往人生這座高山有很多路可以走, 走哪條并不重要。唯一的錯(cuò)誤是我們把時(shí)間浪費(fèi)在了在山腳下徘徊, 告訴其他人你選擇的路是一條錯(cuò)誤的路。所以本段主要在告訴讀者當(dāng)你必須改變自己所走的路時(shí), 你可以改變。但不能停留, 要繼續(xù)前行也就是本段小標(biāo)題所要說的內(nèi)容。故C選項(xiàng)“當(dāng)你必須改變自己所走的路時(shí), 你可以改變。但要繼續(xù)前行”符合題意。故C選項(xiàng)切題。
3. 【解析】選D。由“Smetimes grwing up means grwing apart frm ld habits, relatinships, and situatins, and finding smething new that truly mves yu. ______ Yu shuld lk very clearly int the unknwn and enjy it. ”可知, 有時(shí)候, 成長意味著遠(yuǎn)離陳舊的習(xí)慣、人際關(guān)系和環(huán)境, 去發(fā)現(xiàn)一些真正打動(dòng)你的新東西。你應(yīng)該非常清楚地看到未知的事物并去享受它的樂趣。所以該空與前后句在一同說明小標(biāo)題的內(nèi)容。故D選項(xiàng)“沒有什么比把生活看成一場冒險(xiǎn)更奇妙的了”符合題意。故D選項(xiàng)切題。
4. 【解析】選F。由“If yu live hnrably, n matter hw ld yu get, yu’ll never lse yur beauty”可知, 如果你活得體面, 無論你多大, 你永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)失去你的青春。所以該空要說明標(biāo)題的中的“kindness”。故F選項(xiàng)“記住, 沒有什么比伸出手來幫助有需要的人更好的了”符合題意。故F選項(xiàng)切題。
5. 【解析】選A。由小標(biāo)題“Spend quality time with peple yu lve”以及“Peple dn’t live frever. ”可知, 與你愛的人共度美好時(shí)光。人們不會(huì)永遠(yuǎn)活著。所以該空要說明要珍惜時(shí)間與下一句一同來說明小標(biāo)題的內(nèi)容。故A選項(xiàng)“光陰一去不復(fù)返”符合題意。故A選項(xiàng)切題。
【閱讀多維訓(xùn)練】
