If you don’t know that _____ is the mother of success, you are sure to be _____ in life.

A. failure; failure B. a failure; a failure

C. a failure; failure D. failure; a failure

D

【解析】

試題分析: failure作為“失敗”時(shí)，為抽象名詞，不可數(shù)，故第一個(gè)空不用冠詞；failure作為“失敗的人，失敗的事情”時(shí)，抽象名詞具體化，是可數(shù)名詞，故第二個(gè)空用不定冠詞a 泛指“一個(gè)失敗者”。句意：如果你不明白失敗是成功之母，你一定會成為生活中的失敗者。選D。

Our interpersonal skills have a great effect on success in our daily lives. This appears not only in the workplace where we can make more money or enjoy our job more, but also shows itself in marriage, raising a family and the ability to reach goals in almost every area of life. Interpersonal skills come into play when our flight is cancelled and we need to make other arrangements. They come into play when a marriage is threatened by financial challenges or infidelity(不忠).

Our communication skills even matter when we are in traffic and we need to make a decision about how to respond to other drivers. Communicating with others becomes inseparable from having a good day, or a bad day not only in how we begin communication, but in how we react to the communications of others who are having a difficult time.

It can make a difference in saving a marriage or getting a divorce, celebrating a rise or getting fired, and even having your eggs cooked as the way you like at the local restaurant. Many wise men and women have stressed the importance of dealing with others in a skillful manner.

Getting feedback(反饋意見) from others can be of great value in improving our interpersonal communication skills. Often, however, others are not skilled at giving feedback. When we get negative results, they rarely include the details we need in order to improve our interpersonal skills.

Since life improves so much with greater communication skills, getting feedback and an opportunity to improve would be not only life-saving for pilots, but labor-saving for the rest of us. Contact Alice Aspen March for a free consultation today and see how you might improve your communication skills, or learn more about The Attention Factor.

A. Just to call our attention

B. To tell us the importance of communication skills.

D. To help us not to forget traffic is very important.

4.Which of the following is true?

A. Getting feedback from others can be valueless in improving our interpersonal skills.

B. Even if we have good communication skills, we will surely not be able to improve our life.

Happiness pays off, studies show.

Psychologists seeking the real secrets of happiness report that very happy people tend to be more extroverted and agreeable than less happy people.

“Our findings suggest that very happy people have rich and satisfying social relationships and spend little time alone compared to average people,” write psychologists Ed Diener and Martin E. P. Seligman in the journal Psychological Science.

Solid social relationships do not promise happiness, but they are an important contributing factor. The very happy people whom the authors studied all said they had good quality social relationships. However, the authors write, there is no single key to high happiness. “High happiness seems to be like beautiful symphonic music--including many instruments, without any one being enough for the beautiful quality.”

Diener regards happiness as “subjective (主觀的) well?being”--in other words, the person evaluates his or her own quality of life. The question to ask is, “Is my life going well, according to the standards I choose to use?” If the answer is “yes”, then that person is judged to be happy.

Because people evaluate their lives based on happiness, subjective well?being is very important. Though necessary, it is not enough for having a good life. “Subjective well?being seems quite necessary for the ‘good society’, although it is not enough for that society because there are other things we also value and would want in such a place.” says Diener.

Can subjective well?being be measured scientificall? Diener points out three parts contributing to happiness: pleasant emotions and moods, lack of negative emotions and moods, and satisfaction judgment, to which other factors including cheerfulness and feelings of fulfillment may be added.

There is no magic formula for happiness. Diener suggests steps you can take to ensure you are as happy as you can be. Surrounding yourself with good friends and family--people who care about you and whom you care about--is a start. Joining in activities you enjoy and value is also important; whether it’s work or play, keeping busy in an environment enjoyable to you will contribute much to your subjective well?being. In addition, a healthy outlook is necessary.

1.The underlined word “extroverted” probably means________.

A. pleasant and social B. hard?working and active

C. careful and shy D. warm?hearted and helpful

2.Happiness and symphonic music are common in that________.

A. they are both something beautiful

B. they both make people feel pleased

C. they both depend on more than one factor

D. they are both hard to achieve

3.According to Diener, a person can be judged to be happy when he________.

A. has rich and satisfying social relationships

B. spends more time with other people

C. joins in a lot of activities he enjoys and keeps himself optimistic

D. thinks his life is going well according to his own standards

4.Which of the following does NOT belong to factors contributing to happiness?

A. Pleasant moods.

B. Negative emotions.

C. Satisfaction judgment.

D. Feelings of fulfillment.
