阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从21-40各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

Once upon a time, there lived a man who wanted to achieve everything he was capable of achieving.He was obsessed with this desire --- he ate, slept, and walked with one and only dream: to die, having accomplished every single thing he was able to accomplish.

There were so many things he could do.He felt like the whole world could be his, 41 he set his mind to it.

He knew that his 42 had no limits.He knew that he could accumulate 43 that would dwarf (使相形见绌) that of ancient kings; he knew that he could 44 books that would shake the minds of generations; he knew that he could 45 things that wo uld forever change the lives of millions of people.He lived, constantly feeling the power within --- and that power knew no bounds.

There was only one problem: having such a potential, but only one 46 , he had to make a choice.He had to decide where to 47 all of his ability.Making that decision was extremely hard, for any 48 meant cutting off some future achievements.In the meantime, he went to school, graduated, found a job, married, and 49 children.And he spent every minute of his spare time trying to decide 50 he should bring his potential into full play.

Time went by, and he grew 51 .Some roads he used to dream about became closed to him.But there was still so much he could accomplish.

One day, a sudden chest pain made him come home early.He dragged his feet to the bathroom.There, feeling 52 , he looked in the mirror.A worn-out, gray-haired man stared back at him.He looked 53 into these eyes and, all of a sudden, 54 one simple truth.The next moment, the pain came again, and his heart stopped 55 forever.

The truth that came upon him was rather simple: People only flatter themselves (自以为是，自鸣得意) by thinking that they could have 56 this or that if not for such-and-such circumstances.Yet this is nothing but 57 .You simply lack something that is 58 for achieving that goal you’ve never reached — a talent, a skill, willpower, 59 something else.In fact, 60 you don’t achieve is something you’re not capable of achieving.

第三部分：阅读理解 (第一小节20小题，第二小节5小题;每小题2分，满分50分)

第一节：阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

A

Think about the last time you felt a negative emotion—like stress, anger, or frustration. What was going through your mind as you were going through that negativity? Was your mind cluttered with (充斥) different kinds of thoughts? Or was it paralyzed, unable to think?

The next time you find yourself in the middle of a very stressful time, or you fe el angry or frustrated, stop. Yes, that’s right, stop. Whatever you’re doing, stop and sit for one minute. While you’re sitting there, completely immerse yourself in the negative emotion.

Allow that emotion to consume you. Allow yourself one minute to truly feel that emotion. Don’t cheat yourself here. Take the entire minute—but only one minute—to do nothing else but feel that emotion.

When the minute is over, ask yourself, “Am I willing to keep holding on to this negative emotion as I go through the rest of the day?”

Once you’ve allowed yourself to be totally immersed in the emotion and really feel it, you will be surprised to find that the emotion clears rather quickly.

If you feel you need to hold on to the emotion for a little longer, that is OK. Allow yourself another minute to feel the emotion.

When you feel you’ve had enough of the emotion, ask yourself if you’re willing to carry that negativity with you for the rest of the day. If not, take a deep breath. As you exhale, release all that negativity with your breath.

This exercise seems simple—almost too simple. But, it is very effective. By allowing that negative emotion the space to be truly felt, you are dealing with the emotion rather than stuffin g it down and trying not to feel it. You are actually taking away the power of the emotion by giving it the space and attention it needs. When you immerse yourself in the emotion, and realize that it is only emotion, it loses its control. You can clear your he ad and proceed with your task.

61. Which one does not belong to the negative emotion?

A. anxiety

B. confusion

C. depression

D. sorrow

62. What should you do when you are into negativity according to the article?

A. Listen to some music.

B. Ignore it and do something else.

C. Just do nothing and truly feel that emotion.

D. Think about it and try to deal with it immediately.

63. The underlined word “immerse” (Paragraph 2) most probably means _____.

A. break down

B. get rid of

C. cut off

D. throw into

64. What’s the best title of this text?

A. Clear Your Mental Space.

B. Deep Breath, Trouble Away.

C. Try to Avoid the Negative Emotion.

D. Keep Holding on to This Negative Emotion as Long as Possible.

65. The author’s opinion towards negative emotion is _____.

A. doubtful

B. optimistic

C. frightened

D. confused
