Question

Remember that goals are dreams with a timetable. Our goals are important for us to create what enriches our life. A very common attitude among people who are successful is that their success lies in their ability to provide themselves goals that are both numerous and exciting. When you think about your future，you are helping to feed a long-term goal of what you want to create.

To realize your dreams，you must translate your vision into a series of actions you can take as soon as possible. You should be able to measure these results，to make sure they take you wherever you want. And this step should not be viewed lightly! Indeed，very few people set goals and concrete actions for themselves to achieve. Very few people note what they want to accomplish，and know each day whether they have indeed advanced in the direction of their dreams.

Therefore one of the secrets that you can get results from is to write down your goals on paper first. When you give your dreams a form，they become more concrete，and you can refer to them often and easily. Whenever you read the dreams that you note down，you fill your mind with positive and motivational thoughts.

Unfortunately，many people stop there. They just simply make wishes, hope and wait. These people do not bring positive difference in their lives，because that sort of behavior is just wishful thinking. Success is not at all a miracle. It depends on clear and realistic targets through serious thoughts：concrete actions and perseverance(毅力). Don’t forget，your past does not determine your future. Only you now is your potential!

在做阅读理解题过程中，应首先略读一下短文，了解一下短文的大致意思，然后把几个选项含义理解透，尤其注意意思相近，表达有交叉的选项之间的区别。然后再细读短文，把答案填入合适位置。答题时可以把含义相近的几个选项轮流填入同一处位置，反复阅读，反复体会，找出最佳选项，对于实在没有把握的小题可以最后完成。完成短文后，再认真通读一遍全文，看看上下语意是否通顺，是否符合逻辑关系。要看完全文，关键对方反复阅读，才能选对答案。

另外，做题时要注意文章的首段和每一段的首句或尾句，因为它们往往就是文章的主题句。阅读中要注意要点之间的关系。
