閱讀理解，閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項。

　　What is your recovery rate? How long does it take you to recover from actions and behaviors that upset you? Minutes? Hours? Days? Weeks? The longer it takes you to recover, the more influence that incident has on your actions, and the less able you are to perform to your personal best．

　　You are well aware that the faster you let go of an issues that upsets you, the faster you return to an equilibrium, the healthier you will be．The best example of this behavior is found with professional sports people．They know that the faster they can forget an incident or missd opportunity and get on with the game, the better their performance．Imagine yourself to be an actor in a play on the stage．Your aim is to play your part to the best of your ability．You have been given a script(劇本)and at the end of each sentence is a full stop．Each time you get to the end of the sentence you start a new one and although the next sentence is related to the last it is not affected by it．Your job is to deliver each sentence to the best of your ability．

　　Don't live your life in the past! Learn to live in the present, to overcome the past．Stop the past from influencing your daily life．Don't allow thoughts of the past to reduce your personal best．Stop the past from interfering with your life．Learn to recover quickly．

　　Remember： Rome wasn't built in a day．Reflect on your recovery rate each day．Every day before you go to bed, look at your progress．This is a success．You are taking control of your life．Remember this is a step-by-step process．You are undertaking real change here．Your aim： reduce the time spent in recovery．
