21、 Stop wasting your time thinking of reasons for your failures and shortcomings. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.
The seeds and the power to grow them are contained in the human mind. Success is a choice but not a chance. You can be a success if only you make the right choice.
You cannot be successful without first developing your self-esteem （自尊心）.Your level of self-esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-esteem do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for whatever happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident while successful people realize that they are responsible.
Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify the cause, we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we consciously choose to accept and believe. Thoughts and beliefs cause behavior. Our attitudes and actions are a result of habits rooted in us over a period of time. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success depends upon our level of confidence.
If you associate with positive-thinking people, you are definitely going to achieve success. On the contrary, the opposite happens. We are responsible for finding, planting, and nurturing the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks.
In short, in all areas of your life, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success.
【1】Which could be a good title for the passage?
A.Cause and Effect. B.No pain, no gain.
C.Success is a choice. D.Failure is the mother of success.
【2】We can learn from the passage that _____.
A.You'll succeed as long as you develop your self-esteem
B.Proper control over yourself contributes to building self-esteem
C.Associating with negative people is likely to bring success
D.Success sometimes isn't a choice but a chance
【3】Which of the following is NOT a "cause and effect"?
A.One's habits, attitudes and his actions.
B.One's thoughts, beliefs and his behavior.
C.One's confidence and his success.
D.One's expectations and his responsibilities.

24、After paying ￡20 for my racing red ukulele(尤克里里琴) at a music shop, I turned up to the “Ukulele Hootenanny” at a club near Liverpool Street. The host came and tuned it for me. I went to get a drink and was about to start playing when the little man approached again and said, “Let me tune that again for you.” He took it and returned minutes later saying, “I’ve tuned it, but it won’t be worth it—use this one instead.” He handed me a racing red version of a more expensive ukulele that I happily fumbled(摸索) with on the night.
You can cover the basics online and come along expecting to be able to play the most commonly used chords(和弦). Just don’t expect to fluently flip(弹) between them without any mistakes—that is easier said than done.
What makes this hobby unique is the fact that the ukulele is not seen as a “serious” or “proper” instrument, and so it attracts those more likely to be picking it up for fun. That night’s crew were a random collection of around 30 people ranging from 20 to 60, with various shaped and sized ukuleles and various levels of ability.
We sat around a table, with two song books in front of us. The “leader” called out a page number as we flipped through to a well－known Johnny Cash or Queen tune and did our best to keep up. Later on we got to haggle(争论)—a Lady Gaga here, an Eric Clapton there.
But the part I enjoyed the most that I wasn’t expecting was the singalong. Everyone sings, and as no one cares about your singing abilities, people have a lot of fun with harmonizing, and putting on a heavy Southern accent even if it’s not a country song. What resulted was a hobby with a unique mix and thus one of my favourites: cheap, social, learning a skill, and above all great fun.
【1】Which of the following words can best describe the host?

D．Playing the song written by Johnny Cash.
【4】How might the author feel that night?

B．Awkward.

One young academically excellent person went to apply for a manager position in a big company. He passed the first interview and then the director did the last interview to make the last decision.
The director discovered from the CV that the youth’s academic achievements were excellent all the way, from the secondary school until the postgraduate research. Never did he have a year when he did not score a success. Noticing that the young man was from a poor area, the director was interested in how he made it.
The director asked, “Did you obtain any scholarships in school?” The youth answered, “None.”
The director asked. “Was it your father who paid for your school fees?” The youth was a bit sad. “No. My father passed away when I was one year old, so it was my mother who paid for all my school fees.”
The director asked, “What did your mother do?” The youth replied, “My mother worked as a clothes cleaner.” The director requested the youth to show his hands. The youth showed a pair of hands that were smooth and perfect.
The director asked, “Have you ever helped your mother wash the clothes before?” The youth answered, “I am afraid not. My mother always rejected my offer to help. She wanted me to study and read more books. Furthermore, she said she could wash clothes faster than me.”
The director said, “I have a request. When you go back today, go and clean your mother’s hands, and then see me back here tomorrow morning.”
Feeling his high chance of landing the job, the youth went back home joyfully.
